at this moment, zhuge xuan found it hard to understand what was happening to long chen.
she could even vaguely see some profound symbols throbbing on long chen's body.
in the end, the mysterious symbols entered long chen's eyes.
zhuge xuan stared at long chen, not knowing what to do.
but at this moment, long chen suddenly opened his eyes.
"brother chen, why are you awake?"
zhuge xuan hurried forward, feeling both excited and disappointed.
she was excited because long chen had woken up, but she was disappointed because she didn't have the chance to wipe his body.
long chen sat up. he could clearly feel that his mental state was much better.
the symptoms of being so weak that she could fall asleep at any moment had disappeared.
this made long chen quite happy. he looked at zhuge xuan and was about to say something, but he was suddenly shocked.
that was because zhuge xuan had become completely naked in his eyes.
long chen had this ability before.
but now, this kind of x-ray ability was obviously clearer than before, just like the screen of a mobile phone being upgraded to a 2k screen.
"you're developing well."
long chen muttered.
"brother chen, what did you say?"
zhuge xuan was confused.
"uh, no... it's nothing."
long chen hurriedly closed his eyes.
however, long chen immediately discovered that he could see through things even with his eyes closed.
he turned his head slightly, and his line of sight instantly passed through the wall, directly seeing the scenery outside.
this ability to see through things made long chen apprehensive.
immediately, long chen was overjoyed.
it was obvious that his strength had been greatly improved.
" perhaps the dao of dragon bloodline in my body has been stimulated and sublimated after this dangerous encounter, causing my eyes to sublimate as well. "
long chen thought to himself.
however, even though he was not as weak as before, he had not returned to his peak state. other than the improvement in his x-ray vision, the rest was not too obvious.
"brother chen, why are you closing your eyes and not saying anything? are you feeling uncomfortable?"
zhuge xuan asked in a low voice.
"i'm fine." long chen took a deep breath and calmed himself down. he opened his eyes and asked with a smile, " "why did you bring a basin of water over?"
"well, i wanted to help you wipe your body, but you woke up all of a sudden."
zhuge xuan pouted.
"you seem to be a little depressed?"
long chen asked.
"that's right, i still want to ..."
"what are you thinking about?"
"i want to look at your body, i want to eat your body." zhuge xuan made a face.
"you little girl, can't you think of something positive? then, go find xia ling and continue to protect her. there's nothing else on my end." long chen said.
"i don't want to. i want to take care of you until you're well."
zhuge yue replied.
"you're not obedient?"
long chen said with a straight face.
"brother chen ..."
zhuge xuan said coyly.
" it's your job to protect xia ling. you can only return after you've taught her how to protect herself. "
long chen said.
" you should have told me earlier. hmph, i'll go protect her and teach her. "
zhuge xuan snorted and left.
long chen stood up, tidied his collar, and walked out.
he hadn't gone out for a few days because every time he woke up, he would fall asleep again very quickly. he had become extremely sleepy for some reason.
but now, the sleepiness was gone.
long chen sat in the living room for a while. after having a drink, he looked at the bright sun outside and was about to go out for a walk when an old figure appeared at the door.
"mr. long, where are you going?"
the person was all smiles.
"old master zhuge, why are you here?"
long chen was startled.
the person who had come was the old immortal zhuge of daoming mountain.
he was still the same as before, extraordinary and out of the ordinary, like a god from beyond the mortal world who had come to the mortal world.
"i haven't seen luan 'er for a long time, so i came to see her. i just saw that she has been trained well and now looks much more obedient."
the old daoist zhuge said with a smile.
"i haven't even had the time to teach her anything." long chen was a little embarrassed.
"it's fine," the old daoist zhuge smiled,"she's already comprehending the dao by following mr. long .."
"you old thing, your words are so genteel, but you're deliberately mystifying."
long chen chuckled.
" haha, i'm not trying to be mysterious. by the way, mr. long, you've made great progress in your realm after being seriously injured. it's really magical. you should be infinitely close to the heaven tier now. "
the old daoist zhuge said with a smile.
"heaven tier?" long chen smiled. " i've heard the master of the dragon palace mention it before. from the lowest to the highest, yellow pole, black pole, earth pole, and heaven pole. i've never heard of this celestial realm. "
" the celestial realm is the heaven realm. in this realm, you can see everything within a radius of hundreds of meters when you release your divine sense. now that your divine sense is full, i think that even if you are not in the celestial realm, you are not far from it. "
the old daoist zhuge held the horsetail whisk in his hand and his smile did not fade.
"in other words, the peak of the earth realm?"
"yes."
"in this bustling city, it's enough." long chen's pursuit of realm was not too strong.
he had always wanted to progress naturally and follow the path of nature.
the old daoist zhuge did not refute long chen's words. instead, he smiled and said, " " your current cultivation level is enough for you to cast an interesting little sacred art. if you can master this little sacred art, it might have miraculous effects in the city. it will be very fun. "
"what divine ability?" long chen asked curiously.
" the technique of listening to the inner voice. this technique is called the 'heart observing technique'. by silently reciting the technique, you can listen to the heart. if you master it, you will be invincible in the city with this technique. "
"do you have any conditions for teaching me this technique?"
long chen stared at old zhuge suspiciously.
this old daoist was not simple, and long chen did not dare to take him lightly.
the old daoist zhuge waved his hand. " there's no condition. it's just that this spell is powerful, but it has a huge flaw. "
"what flaw?" long chen asked.
the old daoist zhuge stared at long chen and said with a smile, " " the flaw is that if you have feelings for the person you're casting the spell on, the spell will not work. as long as you have feelings for one of the three, friendship, family, or love, the spell will not work. "
"why is this so?" long chen was shocked.
" there is no such thing as a perfect art in this world, just like there is no such thing as a perfect person in this world. anything that is perfect is not beautiful. "
"i'm asking why it's like this."
"i've already told you the reason."
"but what's the difference between saying it and not saying it?" long chen's face darkened.
" to use this technique, you need to have an empty mind and body and maintain absolute tranquility. if you can feel nothing for someone you love, you can also use this technique. however, if you do that, it means that you are actually heartless to the person you love. " the old daoist laughed.
long chenzi mulled over these words thoughtfully.
"come, listen well. i'll teach you the technique."
"alright," he said.
...
after an hour, the old daoist zhuge left.
long chen, on the other hand, had learned the mind-observing art in an hour.
this could be considered as unlocking a new ability. in the future, this mind-reading technique would definitely have a heaven-defying effect if he met an enemy or went to discuss business with others.
thinking of this, long chen was in a good mood. he strode out leisurely with small steps, planning to take a walk and bask in the sun.
however, as soon as long chen walked out of the villa, he saw a girl walking toward him.
the girl was none other than cheng cheng, who had come to the rescue with him in the village outside south county city.
"how did she find this place?"
long chen was extremely surprised.
then, long chen quickly returned home, found something to cover his face, and put on a hat before going out.
he wanted to tease cheng cheng and see if she could recognize him.
after stepping out of the gate, long chen and cheng cheng met.
"hello, may i ask if this is long chen's home?" he asked.
cheng cheng asked softly.
"long chen? i don't know this person, you must be looking for the wrong place."
long chen said casually, deliberately lowering his voice.
cheng cheng's calm expression suddenly turned ecstatic at this moment.
"you're long chen."
without any hesitation, she immediately grabbed long chen's arm.
although long chen had wrapped himself up tightly, cheng cheng recognized him as soon as he spoke.
" everyone thought you were dead. i thought so too. i didn't expect you to still be alive. "
tears welled up in cheng cheng's eyes as she spoke.
"you've got the wrong person. i'm not long chen,"
as long chen spoke, he pretended to leave.
but cheng cheng wasn't going to let him go. she pulled off the thing covering long chen's face.
when she saw long chen's face, cheng cheng couldn't help but throw herself into long chen's arms. " "you're still alive. that's great."
