Cultivation Starts from Farming Chapter 867 - 386: Thousand Mechanism Skill Perfection; Late-Stage Nascent Soul Divine Sense_3

Moreover, this time, the growth of her divine sense far exceeded any previous time.

"Hmm, a minor improvement."

Xu Ping looked down, gazing at her lazy and charming demeanor, his heart stirred slightly. He reached out and gently brushed her silky hair, smiling faintly as he spoke.

Divine sense at the early-stage Nascent Soul comparable to late-stage Nascent Soul?

This matter was too shocking and involved his core secrets, so there was no need to inform Duan Shuang for the time being.

Duan Shuang, being extremely intelligent, saw his vague words and knew there was a hidden story, so she did not ask further.

She nestled her forehead against Xu Ping’s solid chest, quietly savoring the sensation of her divine sense skyrocketing as if riding a rocket.

She felt unprecedented fullness and solidity in her sea of consciousness.

Seeing her in such a state, Xu Ping’s mind shifted. His index finger suddenly lifted, gently pointing at Duan Shuang’s smooth forehead.

"Shuang’Er’s increase in divine sense is gratifying, but to break through to mid-stage Nascent Soul soon, and even advance to the fourth rank in musical arts, requires stronger assistance."

"This is the ’Thousand Mechanism Skill’, which has greatly benefited me in the path of divine sense. I will pass it on to you today."

A flash of gray-white light flickered at his fingertips, and a vast and mysterious stream of information, containing the complete skill of the ’Thousand Mechanism Skill’, key points of cultivation, and some insights from Xu Ping himself, surged into Duan Shuang’s sea of consciousness in an instant, as if an epiphany.

A moment later, Duan Shuang had already received all the secret techniques of the Thousand Mechanism Skill.

She naturally understood that this was an excellent divine sense secret technique even for Nascent Soul Cultivators.

"Xu Lang..." Duan Shuang’s red lips parted slightly, gentle affection like flowing water.

"This skill has helped me greatly, and I hope it will also benefit Shuang’Er." Xu Ping smiled gently, his tone tender.

Duan Shuang gazed into Xu Ping’s eyes, countless words turning into a spring-like pool of emotions in her eyes, overflowing with tenderness.

She suddenly smiled, a smile like an ice lotus blooming, carrying a breathtaking allure:

"Xu Lang has given me such a generous gift... Then let me..."

Before finishing her words, she slid down like a spirit snake, her brows filled with spring, her vermilion lips slightly parted, leaning down again...

...

Time flew by, another two years passed.

On this day.

The Water Lake Rat brought information from Jin Yuxuan.

"A fourth rank middle-grade Earth Lizard Dragon containing a portion of the True Dragon Bloodline..." Xu Ping held a jade slip, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

For him, such a demon beast was full of treasures.

Puppet materials, even cultivating the Ascending Dragon Technique, were possible.

Moreover, this beast was not rampaging along with the main force of the beast tide, but instead, it was plundering some weak forces out at sea, a perfect opportunity for him to act.

"No time to lose; let’s set off immediately!" Xu Ping promptly stood up.

"Yes! Master!" The Water Lake Rat perked up energetically.

Two streaks of escape light, one gold and one dark, silently left Blood Bone Island, tearing through the clouds, heading swiftly towards the extreme western part of the outer sea, the Black Abyss Trench.

Two months later, deep within the Black Abyss Trench.

Boom!

Endless black heavy water burst forth like a broken dammed Nether River.

In the blink of an eye, a dark blue, incredibly viscous Profound Nether Cold Waters domain, over a thousand feet in diameter, appeared out of thin air.

In this heavy water domain, space seemed to solidify, and the pressure increased a hundredfold.

Roar!!!

The Black Armored Earth Lizard Dragon was startled by this sudden change, letting out a furious roar.

Its enormous body struggled violently, only to find that the viscous and icy Profound Nether Heavy Water greatly hindered its body and demonic power.

As it struggled and roared, its mind momentarily ensnared by this strange domain—

A terrifying divine sense, indescribable, erupted suddenly.

Immediately, a dark glow, carrying a chilling aura, pierced through its tough head defenses, ruthlessly stabbing into the deepest part of its sea of consciousness.

Sizzle!

There was no earth-shattering explosion, only a sound akin to a silent scream of a soul being torn apart, exploding within the Earth Lizard Dragon’s sea of consciousness.

Its beast divine soul, when attacked by the Soul-Breaking Needle driven by a late-stage Nascent Soul divine sense, was as fragile as tissue paper.

"Aow!"

The enormous mountain-like body of the Black Armored Earth Lizard Dragon suddenly stiffened.

It let out a twisted and piercing wail, with dark golden blood seeping out from its seven orifices.

With its divine soul severely damaged, it temporarily lost the power to resist.

The opportunity was fleeting.

A flash of sharpness appeared in Xu Ping’s eyes, and he opened his mouth and spat.

Slash!

A beam of extremely condensed cyan light shot out from his mouth.

It was none other than his lifebound spiritual treasure—the Canghua Divine Wood Sword.

Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!

The cyan rainbow encircled the enormous body of the Black Armored Earth Lizard Dragon, weaving and cutting precisely like a skilled butcher dissecting an ox.

The extremely tough black crystal scales, under the Canghua Divine Wood Sword, were as fragile as butter cut by a hot knife.

Dark golden demon blood gushed like a fountain, dyeing the entire sea area red.

"Bind!"

Xu Ping’s spells changed again, his ten fingers dancing like phantoms.

Countless gray-white runes, shimmering with an aura of decay and extinction, emerged in the void, transforming into endlessly resilient chains of laws, sealing demonic power, suppressing bloodlines, and cutting off all forms of resistance.

In the blink of an eye, a tier four middle-grade great demon, once the overlord of the region, was bound like a lamb awaiting slaughter, completely restrained, with no ability to resist.

"Not even a challenge!"

Xu Ping stood in the void with his hands behind his back, his dark robe fluttering, untainted by dust.

He looked at the massive dragon body, heavily bound by the chains of runes, its breath faint, a trace of a satisfied curve appearing on his lips.

Despite taking significant advantage with the surprise freeze and soul attack of the Soul-Breaking Needle, capturing a tier four middle-grade demon beast in its prime so cleanly and efficiently.

Even for a late-stage Nascent Soul Great Cultivator, achieving such a battle record in person was not easy.

Xu Ping’s mind flickered.

Two beams of light flew back from the tattered body of the Black Armored Earth Lizard Dragon and the far horizon into his palm.

Xu Ping opened his mouth and swallowed the Canghua Divine Wood Sword into his dantian for nurturing, his gaze falling upon the fiercely intimidating Soul-Breaking Needle.

"The power of this needle... truly exceeded my expectations."

Xu Ping’s fingertip traced the cold needle, his eyes flashing with brilliance, carrying a hint of emotion.

With such power, if used in a sneak attack, even a late-stage Nascent Soul Great Cultivator would suffer a loss if caught unprepared.

However, amidst the joy, Xu Ping’s keen divine sense also detected the hidden dangers of the Soul-Breaking Needle.

Although this needle was a spirit treasure, and the quality of the Moon Shadow Stone was top-grade.

But after years of nurturing and tempering with divine sense, its carrying capacity was gradually approaching its limit.
