"I didn't expect to actually succeed, and this technique even has the effect of tempering spiritual power." Ling Feng felt a surge of excitement.

Ling Feng had initially intended to create a technique that utilized the meridians for cultivation, aiming to temper and clear them while simultaneously increasing his soul power.

But this Rakshasa Visualization Method was not bad either; it could help Ling Feng temper his spiritual power, and it was more than a grade better than the meditation method he had been practicing before.

As for tempering the meridians, he could simply incorporate that into the technique later when he refined it.

Ling Feng was unaware that Rakshasa Bibi Dong, who resided within his Sea of Consciousness, had also sensed a certain change.

"What is going on?" Rakshasa Bibi Dong felt a flicker of confusion.

"Why did I feel a trace of my divine power recover just now?"

Although this trace of divine power was extremely faint—so faint it could be considered negligible—her keen divine soul was able to perceive it.

Could it be that the technique Ling Feng created is also helping me recover my state? Rakshasa Bibi Dong wondered.

After a while, once Ling Feng finished his cultivation, she couldn't wait any longer and pulled him into the space where she resided.

Ling Feng had just awakened from his cultivation state when he felt Rakshasa Bibi Dong's summons.

Unexpectedly, Rakshasa Bibi Dong was too impatient and forgot to switch back to her Rakshasa God persona.

She was currently wearing a bright golden long dress, her hair falling naturally, and she wore no elaborate headpieces.

However, her green-faced, fanged appearance had vanished, replaced by her original visage.

It was Bibi Dong in her full bloom, noble and elegant, possessing a unique charm.

She reclined on the imperial throne, her legs crossed.

Perhaps to seek the comfortable and natural state she had enjoyed while alive, her pair of jade-like feet were exposed to the air, bare and unadorned.

So beautiful! Ling Feng thought to himself.

Seeing Ling Feng's burning gaze, Bibi Dong looked down and only then discovered that she had revealed her true appearance.

Oh no, he won't recognize my true identity, will he?

Bibi Dong had no time to switch forms now; she could only hope that Ling Feng did not recognize her.

"My Lady, did you summon me for something?" Ling Feng quickly regained his composure.

He really didn't recognize me! Bibi Dong breathed a sigh of relief.

The younger Bibi Dong differed vastly from the post-ascension Bibi Dong in both temperament and appearance.

Therefore, Rakshasa Bibi Dong believed that Ling Feng did not equate her with the young maiden Bibi Dong.

"Did your technique succeed?" Bibi Dong asked.

"I was lucky enough to succeed, and it is all thanks to your guidance, My Lady!" Ling Feng said.

Ling Feng guessed that the reason he succeeded had to do with seeing the Rakshasa God's body and having Bibi Dong's permission.

"One cannot be too casual when creating cultivation techniques. Give your technique to This Seat... This Seat will vet it for you!" Bibi Dong said.

Ling Feng did not know what Rakshasa Bibi Dong wanted with this technique; it shouldn't be of any help to her, right?

However, Ling Feng did not refuse and explained the technique to Bibi Dong.

After listening, Rakshasa Bibi Dong remained puzzled about the recovery of her divine power from earlier.

Could it be that the issue isn't with this technique? Rakshasa Bibi Dong mused.

"My Lady, is there something wrong with this technique?" Ling Feng asked.

Rakshasa Bibi Dong shook her head; how could she see any flaws in the technique?

I really am lucky to have found a genius like Ling Feng, who could create a new technique in just a single day.

If I tell him about my confusion, could he find the reason for my divine power's recovery?

Rakshasa Bibi Dong felt conflicted; she feared that if she asked Ling Feng for help, she would struggle to maintain her image as a deity.

If that happened, would she still be able to make Ling Feng do her bidding?

Forget it, I'm already in this state, what is there to fear?

Rakshasa Bibi Dong made up her mind to tell Ling Feng about her confusion.

"Ling Feng, This Seat sensed my divine power beginning to recover just now. Do you think it has anything to do with the technique you created?"

"What? Bibi Dong's divine power is starting to recover?" Ling Feng was startled.

This Bibi Dong was no saint; if she recovered her cultivation, would she turn against him?

Ling Feng recalled their interactions over the past two months; aside from punishing and humiliating Yu Xiaogang, he didn't seem to have offended Rakshasa Bibi Dong.

It should be fine, right? After all, when I humiliated Yu Xiaogang, Bibi Dong didn't stop me.

If she didn't stop him, wasn't that tacit approval?

Ling Feng felt more confident and began to ponder the reason for Bibi Dong's divine power recovery.

Could it be because of the power of faith? When I practiced soul power just now and visualized Bibi Dong's body, it was equivalent to becoming one of her believers?

And this power of faith is extremely pure, not being skimmed by the God Realm, which is why Bibi Dong felt her divine power recovering?

It would be simple enough to verify this hypothesis; all that was required was to spread this cultivation technique and let others practice it.

If others successfully cultivated this Rakshasa Visualization Method and Rakshasa Bibi Dong was able to recover her divine power as a result, then it would prove that Ling Feng's theory was correct.

"Senior, could it be that because I practiced this technique, I developed a sense of faith in you?"

"Is it the power of faith that allowed you to recover a sliver of divine power?" Ling Feng asked.

"The power of faith?" Rakshasa Bibi Dong had never ascended to the God Realm and was unfamiliar with its operational mechanisms.

"Senior, to verify this method is quite simple: I will pass this technique on to others."

"If other spirit masters succeed in cultivating it and you are able to recover divine power, then the cause is indeed this technique."

Rakshasa Bibi Dong felt a stir of excitement. If what Ling Feng said was true, she might not only recover her cultivation but even be resurrected.

This child is truly gifted; to think he could come up with such a method!

Yu Xiaogang's so-called world-shaking wisdom is like a firefly compared to the bright moon when placed before this child!

Rakshasa Bibi Dong pondered for a moment and decided it would be best to let Ling Feng give it a try.

If she could recover even a little divine power, she would be able to accomplish much more.

Of course, she could exert a small amount of strength right now, but it would consume the power of her divine soul.

In her current state as a remnant soul, once that power was depleted, she would not be far from total dissipation.

"Very well, go and try!"

"If This Seat can recover divine power, I can use it to help you improve your martial soul aptitude!" Rakshasa Bibi Dong promised.

Ling Feng was overjoyed; the quality of his martial soul was directly related to his cultivation speed.

If his martial soul could be elevated to the level of a Spider Emperor, it would be equivalent to having innate full spirit power.

"Thank you, Senior! This junior will ensure the technique is spread as quickly as possible!" Ling Feng said.

Rakshasa Bibi Dong shook her head and said, "No rush. Verify it first. If your hypothesis proves true, it will not be too late to spread the technique widely."

"There is one more thing: do not use the word 'Rakshasa' when you pass this technique on."

Rakshasa Bibi Dong had not forgotten that there was still a Rakshasa God in the God Realm.

Who knew if spreading this technique would attract His attention or even lead to Him reaping the rewards?
