"So, I still have to start with the Mindless Divine Power?" Feng Xue examined all her current "reference materials." After rounds of deliberation, she finally felt Mindless Divine Power the Wuxiang Divine Power, a direct pointing Law Has Spirit, was the most suitable as the foundation for carrying consciousness.

Although that's the case, Feng Xue is still quite far from mastering the Mindless Divine Power to perfection. It's barely feasible to carry one or two thoughts, or to force the practice through pre-editing, but to break through the constraints of the original technique and perfectly carry her own consciousness is rather wishful thinking.

Therefore, the Mindless Divine Power, which focuses on "protecting oneself" and "killing the target," can only serve as a theoretical basis for adding "commands" to Internal Force. To integrate one's own complete consciousness on top of this, some additional aids are needed.

Feng Xue had some recollection of cultivation techniques capable of carrying consciousness, such as Dao Heart Demon Seed, Heaven and Earth Transformation, Six Demon Crossing, and so on. Unfortunately, he had never come across any of them.

After all, the catalog of Peerless Martial Art almost covers all martial arts techniques in the world, and it's definitely impossible for Feng Xue, who is unlucky, to draw exactly what she wants.

However, once he has a direction, he can create a model for the cultivation method he wants, and then use the power of [Martial] to gradually "fill in" the missing parts, thereby transforming it into a cultivation method that can carry more of his consciousness.

Having sorted out her thoughts, Feng Xue began to consider further steps. It was absolutely impossible to create a perfect technique all at once. No martial art, or any discipline, could be mastered in one step. Sufficient accumulation was necessary as Stairs to ultimately reach the goal.

Feng Xue now had the mature Divine Skill of Mindless Divine Power as a foundation, and the first problem he planned to solve was the issue of the strength of his consciousness.

If the consciousness carried by the Internal Force is not strong enough, it cannot be imbued with pure [consciousness], and may even be diluted instead.

Feng Xue's solution to this problem was rather simple and straightforward: if the intensity of a complete consciousness is insufficient, then she would first use a single consciousness with sufficient intensity; as for a complete consciousness, that would be something to consider later.

It's like building an airplane. If the technology in one area isn't mature, that's okay. Just put together one aspect first and send it into the sky. Even if it's just a powerful brick, it's better than nothing at all.

As for subsequent aerodynamic design optimization and fuel improvement, those are issues to be considered after the aircraft is developed.

As for the "great strength" used to throw bricks, Feng Xue chose "killing intent," which is the strongest and most condensed willpower he currently possesses, and can even intimidate enemies from twenty meters away.

However, the fusion of the Mindless Divine Power and the killing intent was not good. It's not that it was impossible, but the capacity was simply too low.

The Mindless Divine Power is ultimately a hidden weapon technique that emphasizes lethality. Its capacity is limited. To increase the capacity of consciousness, one must reduce lethality and make the Internal Force more dispersed.

However, once the Internal Force dissipates, it becomes unable to maintain a complete physical form.

Feng Xue, who was stuck on this issue, realized that it was due to his lack of accumulation, not only in the quantity of martial arts techniques, but also in his understanding of martial arts.

Although he possesses the power of martial arts, the vast majority of the martial arts he knows are still at the "knowing" level, simply learned by following the manuals, without any personal insights or understanding.

This is like a writer who only knows how to copy classic formulaic stories suddenly wanting to write a completely original novel in a new genre. If it doesn't flop, it can only be said that it's a gift from God.

Therefore, Feng Xue temporarily suppressed his desire for quick success and continued his cultivation while honing his composure.

Ultimately, he doesn't lack time now, and his idea of taking on an apprentice and traveling for three years is not just empty talk.

On the morning of the fourth day after arriving in the real world, Feng Xue got up early as usual, stood in front of the surging river, and waved the Orca Pillow in her hand.

Although this was only the third time she had practiced like this, Feng Xue felt that she had already developed a considerable rapport with the power within the pillow.

As she swung the pillow, the part that served as a weapon was so powerful that Feng Xue didn't even dare to swing it with all her might. In fact, even just practicing the swinging motion was enough to cut a crack in the turbulent river.

Just as someone who gets an axe will always want to chop something to test its sharpness, Feng Xue had this strong destructive urge at this moment, wanting to try out the consequences of swinging the sword with all her might.

However, his reason told him that he couldn't do that in this city.

"Master! I've mastered the Qi Sensation!" Just as Feng Xue put away the Orca Pillow and quietly sensed the ebb and flow of the tides, a slightly panting voice came from behind her. Having already noticed the other person's presence, Feng Xue's lips curled into a slight smile as she turned her head and said:

"Real?"

"Really!" Liu Qi nodded vigorously, wanting to prove it, but not knowing how to do it, since he had only developed Qi Sensation, not actually being able to project his Internal Force.

Feng Xue, however, didn't seem to care, and simply nodded, saying:

"As long as you believe it to be true, that's fine. Anyway, there's a long road ahead. If you're just bragging, you'll only suffer in the end."

As she spoke, Feng Xue forcefully tossed the Orca Pillow behind her, slung it over her shoulder, gently patted the blanket around her, and continued:

"Prepare two sets of clothes, and bring your essentials. We'll set off after lunch."

"Okay, okay!" Liu Qi nodded vigorously before speaking:

"Master, why don't you have lunch at my place..."

"What are you thinking about? Since we're in the city, let's eat something good." Feng Xue rolled her eyes at Liu Qi, then said, "Go home and pack your things first, I'll wait for you here!"

Liu Qi returned home and quickly packed his luggage, which he had prepared in advance. Although he had tried his best to keep it simple, he still filled a backpack to the brim. He had originally wanted to use a suitcase, but considering that it was a long journey, the wheels of the suitcase would probably not be able to support it, so he ultimately chose a backpack as the carrier.

Carrying the nearly 20-pound luggage, Liu Qi, with his still somewhat sore legs, returned to the overpass, only to find a crowd of onlookers.

"What's going on?" Liu Qi was speechless upon seeing the scene. Although a similar scene had occurred a few days ago, the online buzz surrounding handsome older men was short-lived, and there should have been almost no one there in the last couple of days. Could it be that they came from surrounding County Town to visit?

Liu Qi's mind was filled with random thoughts as he pushed through the crowd to the overpass. His expression froze slightly as he looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure; only one thought remained in his mind—

"Who are you, handsome guy?!"

Starting a company requires legal status. The protagonist is an undocumented immigrant, so starting a company would expose him. If Jessica were to start the company, it would attract the attention of Victoria. After all, Jessica is the owner of the Newspaper Agency that reported on Libra, and with her financial resources, she wouldn't be investigated too deeply. But if she were to invest in Yan Country industries without any reason, that would be too strange.
