Cultivating in the Dao of mental energy to form illusions is the same as cultivating battle Qi Energy. Our mental energy must be strong and we must always practice to become stronger, even to create illusions and other actions. There are several ranks in mental energy called master symbols, namely:
Seal Master , The Earth Master Symbol, The Master Symbol of Heaven consists of Heaven, The Master Symbol of Immortality, The Divine Master Symbol,"
Yi Zan explained, "Just by achieving Seal 1 Symbol Master, one has been able to cultivate illusions and manipulate circumstances, so that in dangerous situations, one can evade as long as the enemy one is facing does not have a higher cultivation level."
"That's why a symbol master is so respected," Yi Zan added.
"You still remember what I said, that only 1 in 100,000 people have the ability to cultivate mental energy. Even if one has mental energy, without the guidance of a master as a teacher, that ability is useless. Even if the person insists on using his mental energy, he may go crazy if he misuses his ability," Yi Zan explained.
"In that case, let's train your ability to create illusions."
Yi Zan then seriously recited the theory on how to utilise mental abilities and influence people to create illusions. Thanks to the intelligence provided by the lightning incident Yuan Fen experienced, she quickly understood how to create illusions.
After about an incense of time passed, Yi Zan asked Yuan Fen to try putting into practice the theory he had heard and understood.
"Try, big brother, manipulate that rabbit over there," Yi Zan said, quickly making the rabbit motionless and bringing it in front of Yuan Fen.
"Now, big brother worker, try to create an illusion on this guinea pig. Look into its eyes and use your mental energy. If the rabbit won't look into your eyes, use the mental energy in your voice and manipulate the rabbit," Yi Zan instructed.
After waiting for a while, Yuan Fen managed to manipulate the rabbit's mind. The rabbit suddenly behaved like a dog, chasing small birds while barking incessantly.
"Hahaha!" Yi Zan laughed out loud at the rabbit's dog-like behaviour.
"Go back...!!!" Yuan Fen's voice snapped, ordering the rabbit to return to normal. Upon waking up from the illusion, the rabbit looked dazed. Terrified, it ran into the bushes and disappeared.
Yuan Fen was astonished at her ability to cultivate mental energy. While he was still transfixed by this new ability, Yi Zan added, "Even a symbol master, during battle, can create an illusion as if his opponent feels and sees himself drowning in a sea of waves. If unable to withstand the illusion, the opponent can actually die with a condition like drowning in the ocean."
Yuan Fen increasingly realised that abilities in both the Dao of the sword and the mental Dao were extremely dangerous if managed well and perfectly. The experience of seeing the Elves in the night rain battle made him even more eager to improve his cultivation. The mental energy training taught by Yi Zan opened up new insights for him.
He realised that he was still far from having enough ability when compared to the stories he heard from Yi Zan.
"Alright, big brother Yuan Fen, at this time, I will return to the green peak. Please practice mental energy by completing the 5 types of talismans I mentioned earlier," Yi Zan reminded Yuan Fen.
"We will try selling these talismans at the Cloud Sword Sect weekend next week. Can't wait to taste the cuisine in Morning Star City," Yi Zan said as he ran away and winked.
Although his shadow was gone, his small and crisp voice could be heard, "And don't forget to practice cultivation until you reach the 5th mortal realm. The Snow Lotus Pure Heart sword technique and the Ocean Splitting Palm punch also need to be practised. Don't let the next time we meet, my sword skills are more advanced than yours!" Yi Zan could be heard laughing from a distance.
Yuan Fen only smiled at Yi Zan's message. Wasn't the Snow Lotus Pure Heart sword technique already well mastered by him? Whereas the Ocean Splitting Palm punch? Hmm, he had already mastered that punch. So, the most important thing now was to keep cultivating breathing and training mental energy to make 5 kinds of talismans.
Yuan Fen entered his hut and started cultivating to improve his blood circulation and mental energy cultivation. The night passed, but he remained focused on cultivation. With a calm mind, he felt as if it was comparable to how he felt while sleeping. However, unbeknownst to him, all cultivators were always doing closed cultivation, so sleep time was replaced with breathing cultivation.
The day passed, time passed quickly, and the atmosphere in the entire Cloud Sword Sect was overjoyed that morning. All the disciples and elders of the sect looked full of vigour. This was because today was a weekend or holiday day for them, and the main destination was Morning Star City. It might only be a middle-class city in the Great Ying Imperial Region, but its beauty captivated the hearts of disciples who only cultivated or performed missions on a daily basis.
Everyone needed entertainment, and the joyful shouts of disciples filled the air as an expression of excitement. The Cloud Sword Sect was about 100 km away from Morning Star City, and the journey that usually took time with running knowledge only took 15 minutes if using a magical beast called Deer Beast.
The sect provided dozens of Deer Beasts that could accommodate 50 students on a single trip to Morning Star City. However, this trip is not free, it costs 2 contribution points for one way, so the round trip costs 4 contribution points. While this cost is considerable for students, the excitement and fun that Morning Star City brings makes it worth it. There, they can sell items or herbs they get during missions and also collect contribution points through sect tasks.
Meanwhile, some rich family students were seen riding personal magical beasts as their vehicles.
Dozens of magical beasts, both transport types and war horses capable of running for hours at high speeds, were on display to showcase each person's prestige. The Cloud Sword Sect's residential courtyard was extremely crowded and boisterous.
In the crowd, Yuan Fen patiently stood waiting for the arrival of Yi Zan, a little girl. Suddenly, a beautiful magical beast in the form of a winged horse landed on the field near where Yuan Fen was standing.
"Brother worker, let's go..." Yi Zan shouted from the winged horse.
Yuan Fen was amazed to see Yi Zan's elegant and graceful appearance on the winged horse. He could not hide his astonishment. Who is this girl really? All the techniques she possessed were so classy, even her means of transport was of a high class.
Many eyes were fixed on Yuan Fen, a working disciple with a simple appearance, as he stepped onto the winged horse on which sat the beautiful little girl in the robe of a Cloud Sword Sect student.
"What are you doing? And where did you get such a beautiful and expensive magical beast?" Yuan Fen whispered as he mounted the winged horse.
"Didn't I once say that Green Peak Master is my grandfather?" Yi Zan looked astonished at Yuan Fen.
Yuan Fen gasped. He did not expect that he had been getting along so well with someone who had great connections with the higher-ups in the Cloud Sword Sect. Would this be the turning point for Yuan Fen's triumph?

A Challenge at the Alchemist's Gate
He had already encountered a mysterious boatwoman who seemed unusually well informed about his connection with Eastern Mansion.Now the elderly resident appeared to understand the purpose of Guo Jiang's instructions before Huang had formally presented his request.Huang thought, "Both people have identified more than I expected, but I still have no evidence explaining where their information originated."He maintained his respectful posture, unwilling to treat uncertainty as justification for accusing the elderly man of concealed motives."His Excellency wishes to improve his knowledge of alchemy, and he is prepared to study under someone with genuine expertise."The elderly man listened attentively, his expression suggesting that the explanation mattered more to him than ordinary commercial inquiries.Huang continued, "I came because Su Yan is regarded as an
The Cautious Reception
Huang examined the nearby wall again, studying the spiritual fluctuations that indicated sophisticated barriers surrounding the property.He briefly considered whether his cultivation could carry him through an opening in the protections, allowing a direct approach to the house.The thought lasted only a moment, because the risk and impropriety remained obvious even without testing the formation.Huang thought, "Breaking through would turn a simple request into an intrusion, and His Excellency would gain nothing from such misconduct."He lowered his gaze and waited again, allowing the situation to develop without surrendering his disciplined purpose.The minutes seemed longer in the quiet surroundings, where even small movements became noticeable against the otherwise undisturbed island.He was preparing to call once more when a faint sound finally emerged fr
The House Behind the Formations
The raft settled beside the island's small landing, and Huang examined the shore before stepping away from the wooden platform.The elderly woman maintained her grip upon the long pole, keeping the craft steady while her passenger prepared to disembark.Their earlier conversation had ended uncomfortably, but Huang did not consider that disagreement sufficient reason to ignore the accepted crossing fee.He had promised payment for passage, and the woman had fulfilled that agreement despite their differing attitudes toward his background.Huang reached into his belongings and withdrew one hundred silver taels, placing the money where the operator could receive it.The woman looked at the payment, recognizing immediately that he had offered twice the amount originally demanded."The fee was fifty silver taels, young man, so you appear to have given me considerab
The Boatwoman's Questions
"Jinhung has become an interesting place since the Eastern Demigods inherited its authority, or so travelers have been saying."Huang understood that news of Guo Jiang's succession had spread widely, making the title itself insufficient evidence of unusual knowledge.He therefore replied without revealing his affiliation, choosing a statement that neither confirmed nor denied her speculation."His Excellency's reputation is well known throughout the region, so it would not surprise me if people here discussed him."The woman's expression sharpened slightly when she heard his respectful form of address, although she offered no immediate comment."His Excellency, you say, which is an interesting choice of words for someone who claims only to have traveled through several places."Huang recognized that she was examining his language as carefully as she had exami
A Journey of Hidden Identities
"Senior, I would like to reach the island and request an audience with Alchemist Su Yan, if you are willing to take me there."The woman considered his request, then turned toward the lake and placed her long pole into the water."That is where you asked to go, and I have accepted your passage, so there is no reason to remain here."Huang stepped toward a stable position upon the raft, leaving sufficient room for her to handle the pole without obstruction.He remained attentive to the vessel's movement, understanding that the woman had already demonstrated unusual control over its speed.She pushed against the lakebed with an apparently unhurried motion, and the raft began moving away from the landing.The distance covered by the first movement exceeded what Huang would have expected from ordinary physical strength.He glanced toward the
The Raft That Did Not Tremble
Nevertheless, he had learned that appearances were unreliable when dealing with older practitioners whose strength might be deliberately concealed."I accept your price, Senior, and I would appreciate passage to the island where Alchemist Su Yan resides."The woman nodded slightly, appearing unsurprised that he could afford an amount many ordinary travelers would consider unreasonable."Then come aboard, young man, because I have no intention of carrying someone who spends the entire crossing arguing over payment."Huang acknowledged her reply but noticed that she made no effort to move the raft closer to the landing.The craft remained separated from him by open water, its position apparently comfortable for the woman standing upon it.He considered whether she expected him to request assistance or reveal that he lacked the ability to cross even a short dist
