Chapter 348

As Su Hao comprehended ‘mind’ simultaneously, it was as if clouds dispersed, silver moonlight shining down, illuminating his body completely.

At this moment, Su Hao ‘saw’ his body, or rather, Su Hao’s spirit saw his own body.

Like a perennial ‘introspection.’

He saw blood flowing, muscles twitching, pulses synchronizing with the strong heartbeat, witnessed the rise and fall with breath, completing a small circulation in the body… even saw the intricate ‘rune blood-qi system’ engraved within, where massive blood-qi flowed, surged, and lurked.

This sensation astonished Su Hao, akin to the first time in the previous world when he sensed ‘space’ with his mental power. Another world unfolded before him, filling him with inexplicable joy, soaring to the clouds.

It was his genuine, first-time experience of his own body.

Su Hao became like a tiny person, entering his own body, freely roaming within. And the body was another vast world.

This was entirely different from his perception of blood-qi!

Su Hao’s method of perceiving blood-qi wasn’t actually seeing it but knowing its existence, consciously deceiving himself, forming a ‘deceptive’ perception system, like ‘I can’t see my internal organs, but I know they’re there.’

‘Heart-Mind’ was different; it was no longer deception but a genuine seeing of everything.

“No, not seeing! It’s the body reflecting on the spirit!”

While experimenting with his developed ‘Heart-Mind,’ Su Hao thought and quickly identified the core of Heart-Mind!

His mental power alone was strong enough to effortlessly penetrate the entire body, reflecting all the dynamics of the body in his mental power.

Similar to entering a pinball space, using a small light to manifest the real-time state of his body. The difference now was that he didn’t need the manifestation of a small light; he could perceive the body’s information by infiltrating it with mental power.

“However, the current ‘Heart-Mind’ is not powerful enough, its accuracy completely incomparable to the manifestation of the small light. The small light can manifest and magnify microstructures by millions or tens of millions, but my ‘Heart-Mind’ can only sense the general idea! However…”

“Presumably, with continuous cultivation, ‘Heart-Mind’ will gradually become powerful, and I will soon be able to fully reflect my body!”

Then Su Hao thought about what Feng Ling had told them – above ‘Heart-Mind’ is ‘Intention,’ above ‘Intention’ is ‘Consciousness’… so what is the difference between this ‘Intention’ and ‘Consciousness’?

These are questions to be studied and deciphered in the future.

Su Hao bundled up these scattered thoughts and stored them in the ‘Inspiration’ section of his log. Then he focused his mind on another discovery: “Spiritual Energy!”

While Su Hao perfected ‘Heart-Mind,’ he also sensed what exactly this so-called ‘Spiritual Energy’ was, something entirely different from his imagination, almost shattering Su Hao’s worldview!

Su Hao always thought that the so-called ‘Spiritual Energy’ must be some kind of energy material diffused in the heavens and earth. As long as he could inhale this material into his body, he believed, just like in myths, refining and circulating it along the meridians would enable him to transform these energy materials for his own use, achieving extraordinary feats!

However, in reality, it’s not that simple!

After perfecting ‘Heart-Mind,’ Su Hao faintly felt that ‘Spiritual Energy’ might be a special ‘force field.’

This discovery left Su Hao astonished.

“Perhaps the essence of cultivating immortality lies in the changes in the organizational structure of life under this particular force field…”

This made Su Hao think of even more.

The spatial module comes from the special force field ‘Spatial Waves,’ and ‘Spatial Talent’ is a unique ability evolved by humans in the environment of this ‘Spatial Waves’ force field;

Cultivation’s spiritual energy also originates from the special force field ‘Spiritual Energy Waves,’ and ‘Cultivation Talent’ is a special ability evolved by humans in the environment of this ‘Spiritual Energy Waves’ force field…

Can it be said that the universe is filled with various ‘Force Field Waves,’ and these ‘Force Field Waves’ are diverse, each region of the universe having different ones?

The key point is: within these areas of the universe filled with different ‘Force Field Waves,’ if life is born and possesses a strong environmental adaptability over a sufficiently long time, it will inevitably evolve special abilities adapted to different ‘Force Field Waves.’

In other words, if the universe’s secrets are hidden in these ‘force fields,’ then life with extremely strong environmental adaptability is the manifestation of the universe’s secrets!

“As long as I follow the evolution trajectory of life, explore the essence through appearances, perhaps I can decipher the secrets of the universe!”

Su Hao raised his hand, slowly condensing a ‘Spatial Waves’ force field generation rune, murmuring, “Force field? Force field, what exactly is it…”

The next day, Su Hao leaped twice and reached the mountaintop. Feng Cheng also puffed and climbed up. This time, he was clever and used wooden pegs to climb as steps, inserting them into the stone crevices.

Today is the seventh day that Su Hao and Feng Cheng agreed upon with Feng Ling. She would come here to check their cultivation progress, clarify doubts for both of them, and then continue with the next stage of learning.

When Su Hao was in school, it was a six-day study and one-day rest. Learning with the round-faced fairy here was the opposite, studying for one day and contemplating for six days. No wonder they say cultivating immortality takes a long time. If the teacher doesn’t explain clearly, how can it not take long? Looking at Feng Cheng’s frustrated appearance, it seems these six days might not yield any results.

Su Hao didn’t wait long before Feng Ling arrived, smiling and saying, “Feng Wei, Feng Cheng, how’s the cultivation progress in these few days?”

Feng Cheng didn’t dare to speak, and Su Hao said, “Master, I have already ‘seen the inner court,’ and ‘Heart-Mind’ has been achieved. What should I do next?”

Feng Ling didn’t react for a moment. She turned her head, her round face once again displaying a confused expression, “What has been achieved, and what’s next?”

Su Hao repeated himself and described his feelings. Feng Ling’s big eyes almost popped out, and she exclaimed in disbelief, “It’s achieved? Impossible! It takes at least half a year of meticulous work. How could it happen so quickly? It must be fake! You haven’t practiced this before, have you? No way! According to your description, it does match the characteristics of the Cloudy Moon Heart Technique How did you do it? It took me a whole year to ‘see the inner court’ initially! You did it in six days? Impossible, impossible! Hahaha, Feng Wei, you’re really good at joking. Did someone tell you what ‘seeing the inner court’ looks like, and you’re using it to tease me? You’re mischievous…”

Feng Ling, upon hearing that Su Hao achieved ‘Heart-Mind’ in six days, appeared somewhat confused. Her thoughts seemed scrambled, and she began muttering nonsensically.

Feng Cheng didn’t understand what this meant, but he looked at Su Hao with envy, and the jealousy in his eyes was about to overflow.

“Suck it up!” Feng Cheng forcefully sniffed, swallowing back both his runny nose and envy.

Su Hao, with a deadpan expression, said, “Master, wake up. I’m a genius! Different from you!”

Feng Ling, feeling tons of distress, angrily said, “Genius shouldn’t be like this! Have you ever seen a genius who masters the ‘Cloudy Moon Heart Technique’ in six days? Stop kidding!”

Su Hao replied, “With your talent, it’s hard for me to explain. Maybe they couldn’t do it because their talents were too poor! Please, Master, don’t compare me to others; it’s harmful to them.”

Feng Cheng nodded in agreement from the side. He had already been hurt once!

    Chapter 348

    As Su Hao comprehended Mindfulness, it was as though dark clouds parted and brilliant moonlight poured down, illuminating every corner of his being.

    At that moment...

    Su Hao saw his own body.

    Or more accurately...

    His spirit saw his body.

    It resembled a permanent state of inner observation.

    He saw his blood coursing through his veins.

    His muscles contracting.

    Every heartbeat driving his pulse in perfect rhythm.

    His breathing rising and falling as it completed countless small internal cycles.

    He even saw the intricate Blood Qi rune system engraved within his body, where enormous torrents of Blood Qi surged, circulated, and lay dormant.

    The sensation left Su Hao utterly astonished.

    It reminded him of the first time, back in the Summoner World, when he had sensed Space through his spiritual power.

    Once again...

    An entirely new world unfolded before him.

    A wave of indescribable exhilaration welled up inside him.

    It felt as though his soul had soared into the heavens.

    For the first time in his life...

    He was truly experiencing his own body.


    ---

    Su Hao felt like a tiny traveler wandering freely through another vast world.

    That world...

    Was his own body.

    This experience was completely different from his perception of Blood Qi.

    His previous perception of Blood Qi had never truly been "seeing."

    Rather...

    It was knowing.

    He consciously accepted that Blood Qi existed and mentally constructed a model around that knowledge.

    It was no different from saying,

    "I cannot see my internal organs..."

    "But I know they are there."

    Mindfulness was completely different.

    There was no self-deception involved.

    He truly perceived everything.

    "No..."

    "Not seeing."

    "It's the body reflecting itself onto the spirit."


    ---

    As Su Hao continued experimenting with his newly awakened Mindfulness...

    He quickly grasped its true nature.

    His spiritual power had become strong enough to permeate every part of his body effortlessly.

    Every change occurring inside him was reflected directly into his consciousness.

    It resembled entering the Marble Space, where Little Light reconstructed his body in real time.

    The difference was...

    Inside the Marble Space, Little Light performed the reconstruction.

    Now...

    His own consciousness accomplished something similar.

    His spiritual power infiltrated his body and directly reflected its condition back to him.


    ---

    "However..."

    "My current Mindfulness is still too weak."

    "Its precision is nowhere near Little Light's reconstruction."

    "Little Light can magnify microscopic structures millions or even tens of millions of times."

    "My Mindfulness can only perceive the general picture."

    "But..."

    "If I continue cultivating..."

    "It should gradually become stronger."

    "Eventually..."

    "I ought to be able to observe every detail of my own body."


    ---

    Su Hao then recalled something Feng Ling had mentioned.

    Above Mindfulness came Intent.

    Above Intent...

    Was Consciousness.

    What exactly distinguished these three stages?

    That would require future research.

    He temporarily recorded these thoughts under the Inspiration section of his log before shifting his attention toward another astonishing discovery.

    Spiritual Energy.


    ---

    While perfecting Mindfulness...

    Su Hao had finally sensed what Spiritual Energy truly was.

    And it was nothing like he had imagined.

    The discovery almost overturned his understanding of the world.

    Originally...

    He believed Spiritual Energy was some kind of mysterious energy substance permeating heaven and earth.

    One merely had to absorb it into the body...

    Refine it...

    Circulate it through the meridians...

    Then transform it into one's own power.

    Exactly like the cultivation stories of legends.

    Reality...

    Was far more complicated.


    ---

    After awakening Mindfulness...

    Su Hao vaguely sensed that what cultivators called Spiritual Energy...

    Was actually a special kind of...

    Force field.

    The thought shocked him.


    ---

    "Perhaps..."

    "The essence of cultivation isn't absorbing energy at all."

    "It's the transformation of living organisms under the influence of this unique force field."

    That realization immediately reminded him of something else.

    The Spatial Module originated from the unique force field of Spatial Waves.

    Spatial Talent itself...

    Was likely a biological adaptation humans had evolved within an environment permeated by Spatial Waves.

    Likewise...

    Cultivation's Spiritual Energy originated from another special force field.

    A field Su Hao tentatively named...

    Spiritual Energy Waves.

    Cultivation Talent...

    Was simply another evolutionary adaptation.


    ---

    His thoughts expanded rapidly.

    Could it be...

    That the entire universe was filled with countless different force-field waves?

    Different regions of space...

    Different force fields.

    Different environments.

    If intelligent life evolved within those environments for long enough...

    Wouldn't they inevitably develop biological traits adapted specifically to those force fields?

    In other words...

    Life itself...

    Was the product of adapting to the universe's hidden laws.

    If the universe's secrets truly lay within these countless force fields...

    Then studying life's evolution meant studying the universe itself.

    "As long as I continue following the evolutionary path of life..."

    "And strip away appearances to uncover the essence..."

    "Perhaps..."

    "I can eventually unravel the true secrets of the universe."


    ---

    Su Hao slowly raised his hand.

    A rune capable of generating Spatial Waves gradually condensed above his palm.

    Looking quietly at it...

    He murmured,

    "A force field..."

    "What exactly is a force field?"


    ---

    The following day...

    Su Hao lightly stepped twice against the cliff face before arriving atop the mountain.

    Not long afterward...

    Feng Cheng finally climbed up as well.

    This time he had become much smarter.

    He had carved numerous wooden pegs and driven them into cracks in the cliff, using them as makeshift footholds.


    ---

    Today marked the seventh day since Feng Ling had instructed them to cultivate on their own.

    She would inspect their progress...

    Answer any questions...

    And then continue teaching the next stage.

    Thinking about it...

    Su Hao found the teaching style rather amusing.

    When he attended school...

    He studied for six days and rested one.

    Here...

    It was the opposite.

    One day of instruction...

    Followed by six days of independent contemplation.

    No wonder cultivation took so long.

    If teachers explained so little...

    How could progress possibly be fast?

    Judging by Feng Cheng's defeated expression...

    His six days had clearly produced almost nothing.


    ---

    Before long...

    Feng Ling arrived.

    Smiling, she asked,

    "Feng Wei."

    "Feng Cheng."

    "How has your cultivation progressed these past few days?"

    Feng Cheng lowered his head.

    Not daring to speak.

    Su Hao answered directly.

    "Master."

    "I've already completed Inner Observation."

    "I've successfully awakened Mindfulness."

    "What should I cultivate next?"


    ---

    Feng Ling blinked.

    "...What did you just say?"

    "What did you complete?"

    "And... what comes next?"

    Su Hao repeated himself.

    Then briefly described everything he had experienced.


    ---

    Feng Ling's eyes widened so much they nearly popped out.

    "What?!"

    "You succeeded?"

    "Impossible!"

    "It normally takes at least half a year just to reach Inner Observation!"

    "How could it happen this quickly?"

    "You must be mistaken!"

    "You practiced before joining the sect?"

    "...No."

    "That can't be."

    "But what you're describing..."

    "Those are indeed the characteristics of the Cloudy Moon Heart Technique..."

    "How did you do it?"

    "When I first cultivated..."

    "It took me an entire year before I could perform Inner Observation."

    "You..."

    "You only spent six days?"

    "Impossible!"

    "Absolutely impossible!"

    "Hahaha..."

    "Feng Wei..."

    "You're teasing me, aren't you?"

    "Someone must have told you what Inner Observation feels like..."

    "So you're deliberately tricking your Master."

    "You naughty child..."


    ---

    The revelation completely scrambled Feng Ling's thoughts.

    She began muttering incoherently to herself.

    Meanwhile...

    Although Feng Cheng had no idea what any of this meant...

    The envy in his eyes had almost overflowed.

    He forcefully sniffed.

    Swallowing both his runny nose...

    And his jealousy.


    ---

    Su Hao looked at Feng Ling expressionlessly.

    "Master."

    "Wake up."

    "I'm a genius."

    "I'm different from you."


    ---

    Feng Ling immediately exploded.

    "A genius shouldn't be this outrageous!"

    "Have you ever seen anyone master the Cloudy Moon Heart Technique in only six days?"

    "Stop joking!"


    ---

    Su Hao answered calmly,

    "With your level of talent..."

    "It's difficult for me to explain."

    "Perhaps others couldn't do it simply because they weren't talented enough."

    "So please, Master..."

    "Don't compare me with ordinary people."

    "It's unfair to them."


    ---

    Standing beside them...

    Feng Cheng nodded vigorously.

    He had already suffered enough psychological damage once today.

    okay now the translation is REALLY ramping up in how trash it is

    "a pinball space" refers to *the* pinball space
    "the small light" is actually Little Light, the nickname Su Hao gave to Cosmic Light
