Chapter 131: Sea of Five Spirits Upgrade_1

The thundering in Xu Fan’s mind was echoing in the Sea of Divine Sense within him.

The Sea of Divine Sense, commonly known as the Sea of Consciousness, is formed within the cultivator’s mind after reaching a certain stage of cultivation.

After Xu Fan transmigrated, in addition to the countless memories of the Cultivation World in his mind, he also retained the powerful Sea of Divine Sense cultivated through hard work in his previous life.

The Sea of Consciousness is the most precious thing in the Cultivation World, representing the realm of a cultivator.

If a cultivator has not cultivated a Sea of Divine Sense, then no matter how strong their combat power is, Xu Fan could simply release his Sea of Divine Sense to suppress them with the power of his domain, trapping them in an illusion of his making from which they could never escape.

The strength of the Sea of Consciousness also manifests in its ability to resist the invasion of inner demons.

The Sea of Divine Sense cultivated by Xu Fan in his previous life was called the Sea of Five Spirits, and it was of the Second Grade of Heavenly Rank.

With this formidable Sea of Consciousness, Xu Fan had withstood countless invasions of inner demons, both major and minor, on his cultivation journey.

Moreover, the scope of the Sea of Consciousness is directly linked to the power of the cultivator. In his previous life, Xu Fan had reached the Great Emperor Realm. Upon releasing his Sea of Consciousness, he could cover an area as vast as the entire Milky Way Galaxy. Within this range, he could manipulate every thought, action, and even the life and death of any creature.

With the Sea of Consciousness, it was like having a spy satellite and a psi detector from the game Command & Conquer Red Alert, able to instantaneously perceive all movements within the reach of the Sea. Not even the most powerful “SkyNet” project could compare with it.

However, in his previous life, Xu Fan’s cultivation of the Five Spirits Dominating Heaven Art, whether it was for advancing strength or forming the Sea of Consciousness, relied somewhat on his five incredibly powerful Holy Beast pets.

The result of relying on external objects was that although his own strength increased rapidly, it also left hidden dangers on the path of cultivation.

The biggest peril of the Sea of Five Spirits was that the five Holy Beasts, being emotionless divine creatures by nature, lacked resonance with human emotions. As a result, during his last Tribulation Transcendence, it was precisely because of a hint of regret in his heart that the inner demons invaded Xu Fan’s Sea of Consciousness. Unable to withstand the Seven Emotions Tribulation within the inner demons, he eventually lost his spiritual platform, triggering the Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation and getting struck down, with his soul utterly annihilated.

But it was also because of the Azure Dragon within the Sea of Five Spirits, which could communicate with thunder and lightning, that Xu Fan found a slight crack in the Heavenly Thunder and managed to escape with the last bit of his Divine Sense.

However, due to the transmigration, Xu Fan’s Sea of Consciousness had consumed 99.99% of its energy and had shrunk to the size of a palm, nearly zero.

The thunderous boom in his mind, like a bolt from the blue, fiercely struck Xu Fan’s Sea of Consciousness.

Watching the tender scene of warmth between Xu Yixue and Tongtong, Xu Fan experienced a hint of enlightenment in his heart, which directly caused a thunderclap of awakening to resound in his Sea of Consciousness.

The Sea of Five Spirits, which most lacked a delicate understanding of human emotions, found a glimpse of enlightenment through Xu Fan’s feelings. Under the effect of this enlightening thunder, the Sea of Five Spirits, which had only encompassed a meager few meters, expanded as if being inflated, surging to cover over thirty meters.

Although the grade of the Sea of Five Spirits had not advanced from Second Grade of Heavenly Rank to First Grade of Heavenly Rank, the waters contained projections shimmering like stars.

Xu Fan knew that these were the star spirits needed for the elevation of his Sea of Consciousness. Only by acquiring enough star spirits could the Sea of Consciousness break through from the Second Grade of Heavenly Rank and ascend directly to First Grade of Heavenly Rank.

And a Sea of Consciousness at the First Grade of Heavenly Rank is the truly impregnable and most formidable Sea of Consciousness, without any weaknesses.

Xu Fan felt secretly relieved, never expecting that although his soul had transmigrated to another world, he would stumble upon a method to enhance his Sea of Consciousness. As long as he accumulated more spirit crystals in the future, he was absolutely capable of cultivating his Sea of Five Spirits up to the First Grade of Heavenly Rank, the Holy Sea of Five Spirits. By then, his cultivation journey would become smooth sailing, and there would be no need to worry about the dreadful inner demons any longer.

After expanding the range of his Sea of Consciousness, Xu Fan gently closed his eyes and instantly released his Sea of Consciousness.

The scenes from several tens of meters around him instantly surged into Xu Fan’s brain.

The images from the Sea of Consciousness could not all be known to Xu Fan, but with just a thought, the scenes within the Sea of Consciousness that he wanted to focus on would immediately surface in his mind.

Even an ant could not escape the perception of his Sea of Consciousness.

Just as Xu Fan was about to genuinely experience the actions of the employees at Xinghai Media using his projected Sea of Consciousness, he heard Tongtong asking him with concern, “Daddy, what’s wrong? Why have you closed your eyes?”

“Daddy’s fine, just savoring the aroma of the tea,” Xu Fan opened his eyes and said with a smile to Tongtong.

“Hmph! Putting on a show.” Xu Yixue gave Xu Fan a glance, speaking disdainfully.

“Mommy, Mommy, let’s go out and have fun tomorrow together, Daddy said he’ll take us to have a change of scenery,” Tongtong said, seeing that Xu Yixue’s attitude towards Xu Fan was not very good. Her little eyes cunningly spun a few circles, coming up with a great idea.

“Umm…” Xu Fan, hearing Tongtong’s words, felt a wave of frustration. I didn’t invite her to go out and have fun, okay? What little conspiracy are you brewing up, you little rascal?

When Xu Yixue heard Tongtong’s suggestion, she also became a bit flustered and lightly furrowed her brow, saying, “Mommy has a pile of work at the company, how can I have time to go out and play?”

Hearing Xu Yixue’s refusal, Little Tongtong immediately was displeased, and with a pouting mouth and a grievance-filled face about to cry, she pitifully said to Xu Yixue, “Daddy said he would take Tongtong to see the little pig Peppa at the zoo, and I told Daddy that I wanted Mommy to go with us because Mommy loves Tongtong the most. But it turns out Mommy only has eyes for work, wuwuwu…”

Xu Fan stared blankly at Tongtong, unsure if the tears on her little face were real or fake, but they were about to flow down either way.

Seeing his little princess on the verge of crying, Xu Fan couldn’t just stand by and watch. He directly said to Xu Yixue, “Tongtong finally wants to go out and play, can’t you, CEO Xu, find some time to accompany her just this once?”

“No, my company is just getting on the right track and it’s a critical time for personnel; if I leave, who will manage the company?” Xu Yixue insisted firmly, biting her lip.

“Wuwu, Daddy, if Mommy doesn’t go to the zoo with Tongtong, what will Tongtong do…” Tongtong complained to Xu Fan with a pouting mouth and a pitiable look.

Xu Yixue, seeing Tongtong crying like that, felt her heart tightening. Tongtong’s words made it seem as if Xu’s love for her was not as great as Xu Fan’s love for Tongtong.

Xu Yixue steeled her heart, putting aside the company’s matters, and indulgently said to Tongtong, “Going to the zoo is okay, but your aunt and I will take you. We don’t need your daddy to come along, okay?”
