Breaking the Mental Power Restriction

Chen Lie nodded and waited outside the "Shanling First Tower" hotel.

Not long after, a blue superboat landed in the plaza outside the hotel.

The hatch of the blue superboat opened, and a man stepped off.

Upon seeing Shen Miaowei, the man immediately walked over quickly.

"Miss Miao Wei, Mr. Shen sent me to pick you up. Please come with me to the airship."

Shen Miaowei nodded and said, "This is my friend; she'll be coming with me."

The middle-aged man glanced at Chen Lie and instantly realized that this man must also be a top genius from the Chuanshan Eight Provinces. Therefore, he dared not be negligent and immediately said, "Then please come aboard the superboat."

Chen Lie nodded and boarded the superboat with Shen Miaowei.

The superboat took off and sped toward the Divine Sense Master Association of the Guannei Province.

Just about ten minutes later, the superboat landed on the ground. The man driving the superboat immediately opened the cabin door and got off, eagerly gesturing for Chen Lie and Shen Miaowei to get off.

"Miss Miao Wei, Mr. Shen has already joined the Divine Sense Master Association. You can contact him after you join."

"I see."

Shen Miaowei nodded, then turned to Chen Lie and said, "Mr. Chen Lie, the activities inside must have already started. Shall we go in now?"

Let's go!

Chen Lie nodded and went with Shen Miaowei to the Guannei Province Divine Sense Master Association.

Upon arriving at the gates of the Divine Sense Master Association, they were immediately stopped by someone.

"The Divine Sense Master Association is undergoing internal tidying and will be closed to the public today."

Shen Miaowei directly took out her Divine Sense Master Certificate, handed it to the guard at the door, and said, "We are Divine Sense Master, here to participate in the event."

The guard took the Divine Sense Master Certificate Divine Sense Master Certificate, glanced at it, and then immediately returned it to Shen Miaowei.

Please come in.

Shen Miaowei accepted the Divine Sense Master Certificate and put it away. Then, she and Chen Lie entered the gate of the Divine Sense Master Association together.

Inside the lobby of the Divine Sense Master Association, many people were walking back and forth.

Chen Lie and Shen Miaowei walked around inside and looked around casually.

"The people here should all be Divine Sense Master Divine Sense Master, but I wonder how many of them have reached the higher levels."

As Shen Miaowei walked and talked, she suddenly heard a voice calling her name.

"Sister Wei, over here!"

Chen Lie turned his head and saw a girl of about sixteen or seventeen waving.

"Fei Xue? What brings you here?"

Shen Miaowei turned around and saw the girl calling her name, and couldn't help but ask.

The girl smiled and said, "I came with my dad."

"You haven't even passed the Apprentice Divine Sense Master assessment yet, why would Fourth Uncle bring you to a place like this?"

He didn't want to bring me at first, but I kept pestering him until he agreed to take me.

"I see."

Shen Miaowei nodded, then Chen Liedao, "Mr. Chen Lie, this is my sister, Shen Feixue. You should still remember her, right?"

Chen Lie nodded and said, "I remember."

"Hey, what are you doing here?"

Shen Feixue was somewhat surprised to see Chen Lie.

"Fei Xue, I warned you before not to be rude to Mr. Chen Lie, did you ignore me?"

Shen Miaowei glared at Shen Feixue.

"Where was I being rude? Wasn't this just normal conversation?" Shen Feixue said. After being given a gag order by the authorities, Shen Feixue also realized Chen Lie's potential in the field of Mental Power.

To be honest, she knew that the Shen Family couldn't afford to offend such a genius.

But she subconsciously held people from impoverished backgrounds in contempt.

Not only Chen Lie, but even Ji Lingxuan, who was always touted as having a humble background in Yunchuan Province, was considered by many to be lucky to be born in Martial Era. Otherwise, how could she possibly stand on the head of a family that had been passed down for hundreds of years?

At that moment, a man around forty years old walked over.

"Miao Wei, you're here?"

"Fourth Uncle!"

Upon seeing the man, Shen Miaowei immediately introduced him to Chen Lie: "Mr. Chen Lie, this is my fourth uncle, Fei Xue's father, named Shen Huajie, the president of Lingfeng Group."

"Fourth Uncle, this is my friend, Chen Lie."

Shen Huajie Chen Liedao, "Oh? Miao Wei's friend? Then she must be one of the most outstanding people in the Chuanshan Eight Provinces. Hello, classmate Chen Lie."

Chen Lie nodded and replied, "Hello, Mr. Shen."

After the two greeted each other, Shen Miaowei asked, "Fourth Uncle, why would the Guannei Province Divine Sense Master Association suddenly hold such an event?"

"I even sent you an invitation a few days ago?"

Shen Huajie said, "It's not just me; the renowned high-level Divine Sense Master from the Chuanshan Eight Provinces have all received invitations from the Divine Sense Master Association of Guannei Province."

The specific reason seems to be that the Guannei Province Divine Sense Master Association obtained a Treasure Artifact for cultivating Mental Power from Outer Stars, which can assist people in cultivating Mental Power.

However, this Treasure Artifact has a powerful Mental Power restriction that seals Treasure Artifact power.

The Guannei Province Divine Sense Master Association invited Divine Sense Master from eight provinces to come here specifically to unlock the seal on this Outer Stars Mental Power Treasure Artifact.

"What kind of restriction is so difficult to break?" Shen Miaowei asked.

"It's probably a restriction set up by Outer Stars Divine Sense Grandmaster. It definitely can't be broken by brute force. The only way is to combine the wisdom of many people and use techniques to break it."

Therefore, this time, the Guannei Province Divine Sense Master Association not only invited high-level Divine Sense Master, but also some Divine Sense geniuses who had not yet reached the required level.

I heard that this time, the Guannei Province Divine Sense Master Association specially invited the top twenty Divine Sense geniuses from the top ten provinces of Blue Star, who were also on the Apprentice Divine Sense Master Ranking.

Upon hearing this, Shen Miaowei glanced at Chen Lie and suddenly realized that the genius of divine sense she had brought today was even stronger than the one invited by the Divine Sense Master Association of Guannei Province.

Shen Feixue remarked from the side, "Ranked only twentieth on the Apprentice Divine Sense Master Ranking, and you call yourself a Divine Sense Genius?"

"You little brat, when did you start spouting such nonsense?"

"I'm talking about the top twenty on Blue Star, not the top twenty from Yunchuan Province," Shen Huajie said.

What's the difference?

Shen Feixue pursed her lips.

She knew Chen Lie was Blue Star Ninth. If she acknowledged that twentieth on Blue Star was powerful, wouldn't Chen Lie be even more powerful?

She hadn't previously thought that the geniuses on the Blue Star Divine Sense Master Ranking weren't impressive; on the contrary, she genuinely believed that the top ten on Blue Star were all prodigies.

Chen Lie's appearance shattered her illusions and idealized perceptions of the geniuses on the Blue Star Divine Sense Master Ranking.

She had once had someone investigate Chen Lie, and the conclusion was that Chen Lie's martial arts talent was mediocre, which made her question, "Blue Star Ninth, is that all?"

Shen Huajie glanced at Shen Feixue, shook his head, and didn't reply.

"Miao Wei, the first floor of the Divine Sense Master Association is full of Apprentice Divine Sense Master Divine Sense Master who have just entered the ranks. Only by passing a Mental Power test can one go up to the second floor."

Do you want to stay and answer the questions to get to the second floor by yourself, or should I take you up to the second floor?

"I'll do it myself," Shen Miaowei said.

"Alright, with Sea of Consciousness Score over 400,000, solving the questions from the Guannei Province Divine Sense Master Association should be a piece of cake."

Shen Huajie nodded and was about to walk over.

Shen Feixue waved to Shen Miaowei and said, "Sister Wei, I'll be waiting for you on the second floor."

"Mm." Shen Miaowei nodded.

After Shen Huajie led Shen Feixue up to the second floor, Shen Miaowei said, "Mr. Chen Lie, shall we go and take a look in the middle?"

"Okay!" Chen Lie nodded and went with Shen Miaowei to the middle of the lobby on the first floor, where the crowd was gathering.

In the middle of the hall, a deacon from the Guannei Province Divine Sense Master Association was speaking.

"Dear Mental Power practitioners from the Chuanshan Eight Provinces, first of all, welcome to the Divine Sense Master Association of the Guannei Province today."

The Divine Sense Master Association has set a special challenge. Whoever can solve this challenge will receive ten catties of Spirit Nourishing Flower as a reward from the Divine Sense Master Association of Guannei Province, and will be allowed to go upstairs to negotiate with many high-level Divine Sense Master from the Chuanshan Eight Provinces.

After the deacon of the Divine Sense Master Association finished speaking, someone immediately asked a question.

What is the question?

The deacon of the Divine Sense Master Association replied, "There are ten S-Rank Martial Art Psionic Crystal Card on site. Each of these ten Psionic Crystal Card has been placed with a Mental Power restriction by a high-level Divine Sense Master."

"Whoever can decipher any one of the ten Psionic Crystal Card will succeed in the challenge, be allowed to go upstairs, and receive a reward of ten catties of Spirit Nourishing Flower."

"How could a group of us who have just entered the realm, or even haven't entered it yet, possibly break the Mental Power restriction set up by a high-level Divine Sense Master Divine Sense Master?" someone questioned.

"Don't worry, everyone. This question isn't testing the strength of your Mental Power, but rather your methods and skills in manipulating Mental Power."

"The Mental Power restrictions on these ten Psionic Crystal Card can definitely be broken with skillful manipulation," the deacon of the Divine Sense Master Association replied.

"Then I'll give it a try."

A young man immediately stepped forward.

Please!

The deacon of the Guannei Province Divine Sense Master Association gestured for the young man to try.

The young man immediately picked up a Spirit Crystal Card from the table in the middle and secretly began to use his Mental Power to try to break the Mental Power restriction on the card.

He quickly realized he couldn't break the Mental Power restriction, so he put down the Psionic Crystal Card Psionic Crystal Card card and tried another one, but still failed.

In just over ten minutes, he tried all ten Psionic Crystal Card, but all of them ended in failure.

Finally, he shook his head and said, "Breaking the Mental Power restriction set up by a high-level Divine Sense Master is too difficult; ordinary people simply cannot do it."

The deacon from the Guannei Province Divine Sense Master Association asked, "Anyone interested in giving it a try?"

"These ten Psionic Crystal Card, if you can break the Mental Power restriction on any one of them, you can obtain ten catties of Spirit Nourishing Flower and ascend to the second floor."

As soon as the words were spoken, someone immediately stood up.

"I'll give it a try!"

After a strong voice rang out, a young man of about twenty years old walked to the table in the middle where ten Psionic Crystal Card were placed.

"Isn't that Zhang Ruoya?"

"Zhang Ruoya? He looks familiar."

"Zhang Ruoya is from East River Province, a rank-1 Divine Sense Master, and supposedly the number one Divine Sense genius in East River Province?"

"East River Province's number one genius of divine sense? What does that mean? His Sea of Consciousness Score is very high?"

"The Sea of Consciousness Score is quite high, probably around 250,000 points."

"250,000 points is enough to be called the number one genius of divine sense in East River Province? This Sea of Consciousness Score wouldn't even make the top twenty in our Guannei Province. East River Province is truly trash."

"That's not quite right. Although East River Province is indeed not very good, Zhang Ruoya is hailed as the number one genius of divine sense in East River Province, not because of his Sea of Consciousness Score, but because he has cultivated a powerful Consciousness Spirit."

As any Divine Sense Master knows, the score of the Consciousness Sea World and the score of the Consciousness Spirit are equally important.

Zhang Ruoya picked up a Psionic Crystal Card and began trying to break the Mental Power restriction within it.

However, he quickly frowned, put down the Psionic Crystal Card in his hand, and replaced it with another one.

After exchanging three Psionic Crystal Card in a row, Zhang Ruoya's brows relaxed at noon, and a smile appeared on his face.

"The Mental Power restriction has been broken."

The deacon from the Divine Sense Master Association checked it and immediately said, "Alright, ten catties of Spirit Nourishing Flower will be delivered to you by a staff member when you leave. You can go upstairs now."

Zhang Ruoya nodded slightly and walked to the side, but did not choose to go up to the second floor.

After Zhang Ruoya, several others went to try to break the Mental Power restriction on the Psionic Crystal Card, but only one Guannei Province, an entry-level Divine Sense Master, successfully broke it.

Shen Miaowei whispered to Chen Liedao, "Mr. Chen Lie, would you like to give it a try?"

Chen Lie said, "You go first."

"Oh well."

Shen Miaowei nodded and went to the table in the middle to pick up a Psionic Crystal Card.

"Young lady, would you like to give it a try?" the deacon of the Divine Sense Master Association asked.

Shen Miaowei hummed in agreement.

"Judging from your age, you shouldn't have reached the advanced level yet, right? Apprentice Divine Sense Master?"

"Yes."

After answering, Shen Miaowei stopped talking and began to circulate her Mental Power, probing into the Psionic Crystal Card.

Soon, her brows furrowed, she put down the Psionic Crystal Card in her hand, and picked up a new one.

The deacon looked as if he had known this all along, and was about to offer some advice when Shen Miaowei handed over the second Psionic Crystal Card.

"Crack complete."

"Has the crack been completed?"

The deacon of the Divine Sense Master Association immediately took the Psionic Crystal Card and examined it.

He quickly looked surprised and said, "You actually broke the Mental Power restriction! A Apprentice Divine Sense Master, may I ask which province you're from? What's your name?"

"Yunchuan Province, Shen Miaowei."

When Shen Miaowei announced her name, many people around her couldn't help but be surprised.

"These are people from the Yunchuan Shen Family, the Shen Family family, a family of Divine Sense Master."

"I've heard of her. Shen Miaowei's Sea of Consciousness Score is over 400,000, the highest score in the history of the Three Provinces of Chuanzhong. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her the number one genius of divine sense in the Three Rivers."

"Alright, you can go up to the second floor now. The reward of ten catties of Spirit Nourishing Flower will be delivered to you when you leave," said the deacon from the Divine Sense Master Association.

Shen Miaowei nodded, glanced at Chen Lie, and then walked to the side.

Chen Lie then walked up, went to the table, picked up a Psionic Crystal Card, and began to probe and decipher it using his Mental Power.

"Would you like to give it a try?"

The deacon of the Divine Sense Master Association was strange. Judging from Chen Lie's age, he was not much different from Shen Miaowei from before, so he definitely hadn't entered the rank either.

Unless a non-advanced Divine Sense Master is truly exceptionally talented, it is absolutely impossible for them to break through the Mental Power restrictions set by a high-level Divine Sense Master.

"It's been cracked, take a look."

Chen Lie handed the Psionic Crystal Card directly to the deacon of the Divine Sense Master Association opposite him.

"You cracked it before you even finished a sentence?"

The steward immediately sensed that Chen Lie was causing trouble.
