The light was as fine as a hair, yet it contained a vast amount of divine power, which was a wisp of Lin Hao's Source God consciousness that had been separated.
"The risk of directly attaching one's divine sense to them is too great."
Lin Hao pondered, "Since that 'system' can teleport across realms, it must have a detection mechanism."
If they were discovered, it would not only alert the enemy, but could also pose unpredictable dangers to Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun.
"But if it's just a very subtle 'mark' left behind, without actively exploring it, and only used as a coordinate sensor..."
The light at his fingertips began to shift, and the wisp of dark golden divine consciousness was continuously compressed and condensed, eventually transforming into two imperceptible points of light. Each point of light was only the size of a dust particle, yet it contained profound Dao patterns.
"Using the technique of ' Karma Waymarker,' the mark is intertwined with their own cause and effect."
Therefore, unless Mighty One accomplished being who understands the Dao of Cause and Effect personally investigates, it is extremely difficult to discover.
With a thought, Lin Hao sent two points of light flying out silently, piercing through the bubble's barrier and disappearing into the bubble where Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun were located.
After the light entered the bubble, it did not directly attach to the two women, but instead merged into the aura flowing around them, quietly resonating with their own life fluctuations and soul rhythms, and ultimately becoming part of cause and effect, deeply imprinted on the "root" of their existence.
The entire process was silent and did not cause any disturbance.
Even Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun, who were receiving guidance in the illusion, were completely unaware.
It's done.
Lin Hao withdrew his hand, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
These two Karma Waymarker will not actively seek any information, will not affect the two women's behavior, and will not even interact with them in any way.
Their sole purpose was to serve as coordinates when the two women returned to the Douluo Continent through the system, allowing Lin Hao to vaguely sense the location of the Douluo Continent and the characteristics of the "passage" between the two worlds.
It's like lighting two faint lighthouses in the darkness; though their light is dim, it's enough to guide you.
"Next, we just have to wait."
Lin Hao stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze deep and unfathomable.
If this attempt succeeds, he will be able to gain a preliminary glimpse into the mystery of the connection between the two worlds.
Even in the future, when his cultivation advances further, he might be able to use this Karma Waymarker to truly open the passage to the Douluo Continent.
Of course, that's a story for another time.
Right now, he was more interested in seeing how these three women would perform in the illusion of the martial arts arena.
Within the chaotic space, three bubbles floated silently.
The bubble belonging to Snow Empress has the most dramatic changes in light and shadow.
Sometimes Ice Seal the world solid, sometimes Lie Yan with raging flames, sometimes the Milky Way turns upside down, and sometimes time flows on.
The Snow Empress's figure appeared and disappeared among them, and each time she appeared, her aura underwent subtle changes.
She was originally the Lord of the Far North of the Douluo Continent, and her understanding of the laws of ice reached the pinnacle of that world.
But the laws of the Shrouding the Heavens World are more complete and profound. At this moment, in the illusion, she is absorbing, adapting, and transforming at an astonishing speed.
The bubble that belonged to Zhu Zhuyun contained a vast starry sky inside.
Zhu Zhuyun floated in the starry sky, with a faint moonlight flowing around her.
The " Mystic Moon Goddess Scripture " she cultivates is the Way of the Moon. At this moment, in the starry sky that has evolved into an illusion, she is interacting with the stars and her understanding of the Lunar Power is rapidly improving.
Within the illusion, a blurry figure appeared intermittently; it was Lin Hao's divine sense, guiding her through the key points of her cultivation and leading her to comprehend the essence of the Taiyin True Meaning.
And that bubble that belonged to Zhu Zhuqing...
The interior is the most unique feature.
That wasn't a specific environment, but rather a state of chaos.
In the chaos, countless lights and shadows flowed and transformed into various scenes:
There was the loneliness of being looked down upon in the Zhu Family during his childhood, the oppressive feeling of walking on thin ice in the Star Luo Imperial City, the perseverance of diligently cultivating at the Shrek Academy, and the awe of gazing at the vast starry sky in the Shrouding the Heavens World...
This is an illusion created by one's state of mind.
Zhu Zhuqing sat quietly in the chaos, her eyes closed, her brows sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed.
Her breathing fluctuated, sometimes sharp as a knife, sometimes calm as water.
A hazy figure appeared opposite her; it was Lin Hao's divine sense.
Your path lies in 'persistence'.
The divine voice was calm, yet it spoke directly to the heart, "The hardships of childhood made you determined to become stronger; the constraints of fate made you determined to be free."
"Excessive attachment is a major taboo in spiritual practice, easily giving rise to inner demons and leading one astray."
"But for you, this obsession is precisely the foundation of your path."
Zhu Zhuqing trembled violently, her tightly closed eyes suddenly snapped open, and a brilliant light flashed in them.
"My unwavering conviction... is precisely the foundation of my path..."
She murmured softly, and her aura began to change drastically.
The originally sharp but slightly scattered aura began to converge and condense, eventually transforming into a pure and refined aura, and her cultivation officially broke through to the Other Shore.
"I see."
Zhu Zhuqing slowly rose and bowed deeply to the divine thought.
"Thank you for your guidance, Your Majesty."
The divine sense nodded slightly, and the figure gradually faded away.
Zhu Zhuqing then sat down again and began to sort out and consolidate the true meaning of swordsmanship that she had just comprehended.
Outside, three hours passed in the blink of an eye.
"Buzz--"
The three bubbles trembled slightly at the same time, the light and shadow inside them converged, and they gradually became transparent.
Three figures emerged from within, then took a step forward and returned to the chaotic space.
The Snow Empress remained aloof, but her aura had become even more solid, and deep within her icy blue eyes, faint patterns of laws flowed.
The three hours of illusory training gave her a preliminary understanding of the cultivation system in the Shrouding the Heavens World. Although her cultivation level did not improve, her foundation became much more solid.
Zhu Zhuyun's body exuded a restrained moonlight, and her aura was profound.
She bowed respectfully to Lin Hao, her eyes filled with gratitude. "Thank you for your guidance, Your Zhu Yun. I have benefited greatly."
Zhu Zhuqing was the last to emerge, and her changes were the most noticeable.
His originally aloof demeanor now possessed an indescribable "sharpness."
It wasn't an outward display of sharpness, but rather an inner resilience, like a sharp sword hidden in its sheath—unsheathed until it is drawn, and when drawn, it is sure to kill.
She looked at Lin Hao, bowed deeply, and said nothing, but the determination in her eyes said it all.
Lin Hao glanced at the three women and nodded slightly.
"Good."
"To have achieved this much in three hours proves that none of you wasted this opportunity."
He paused, then looked at Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun: "Tomorrow, you will return to the Douluo Continent. Today's cultivation should be helpful to you."
"Remember, the path of cultivation must ultimately be walked by yourself. No matter how much guidance others offer, it is merely a guide. The true path lies beneath your own feet."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The two women responded in unison.
"Alright, that's enough for today." Lin Hao turned and walked out of the training ground. "Go back and rest properly. Tomorrow..."
