In his temporary home, Chen Jing sensed the changes within himself and assessed his own abilities.

These abilities and knowledge appeared in his mind as if they were innate.

Spiritual energy covers the entire body, guiding the individual into a state of sadness and loneliness. An invisible, mud-like covering forms on the surface, like sinking into a "dark sea," a state of invisibility that can last for more than two hours without rest.

The fundamental principle of this invisibility is to eliminate one's own presence to nothing. As long as one does not communicate extensively with the external environment, even if one is in the sight of others or makes a sound, one's presence will be forgotten by others' brains as meaningless information that can be ignored.

If one enters a state of loneliness and sadness without actively controlling it, this ability may even activate unconsciously, without consuming any spiritual energy before one becomes aware of it.

The stealth state is more stable; it will not be eliminated as long as there is no obvious interaction with the surroundings or attacking others.

The invisibility time has been further reduced to about three seconds. It will increase if the weapon is too large or the equipment is too heavy. It will also increase if you are carrying people or carrying heavy items. There is a limit to this limit. Once you exceed the limit, you can no longer become invisible.

"This is the full version of the invisibility ability... Maybe I should give it a name, Akarin state? No, that's a bit too ridiculous..." Chen Jing thought.

"This ability is really strange. It's so weird that no one can tell when you're feeling lonely and sad. That's really strange..."

Chen Jing recalled some fragmented knowledge he had seen before his transmigration. The human senses, such as the eyes, can receive a lot of information at once, but only a small portion is interpreted by the brain. Of the content interpreted by the brain, only a small portion is consciously valued.

The so-called subconscious includes information that is received by the brain but not taken seriously by consciousness, as well as the semi-finished products of this information that are processed and interpreted by the brain in an instant. These include the vague imaginations and stream of consciousness that do not come out in our waking state to interfere with our thinking.

This ability seems to allow one to subconsciously avoid the gaze of the brain or consciousness? My existence becomes noise that is ignored by others?

"Let's call it 'Noise Invisibility' then!" Chen Jing thought, finding the name quite vivid, direct, and satisfying.

In addition, Chen Jing also gained new abilities.

He 'recalled' many hiding techniques he had encountered before and gained a deep understanding of them, so that even without using invisibility, he could hide like a master assassin.

Not only have their hiding skills improved, but their ability to detect others' makeup, their own disguise, their reconnaissance skills, and their control over facial expressions and speech patterns has also been significantly enhanced.

Among these, Chen Jing 'remembered' a lot of fragmented knowledge about this subject from before his transmigration, as if he had already used it skillfully many times.

Chen Jing also felt that his fingers had become more dexterous, enabling him to perform very delicate and rapid tasks.

"Wait... is it really the Qi of the Dao...?" Chen Jing thought to himself, "Could it be the Qi of the Thief...?"

Such nimble fingers are perfect for stealing other people's things!

In this world, the word for "the Way" and the word for "theft" are homophones.

"Hmm, I feel my mental endurance has improved; I might be able to use the Shadow Cloak twice in a short time. But I don't know about the improvement in martial arts; the knowledge gained from 'leveling up' doesn't include these external changes..."

"I've absorbed so much spiritual energy all at once; I wonder how long it will take to master it..."

"I don't know the mental cultivation method yet, and I don't know how to temper my character... I hope I can find some clues from Master tomorrow."

Before going to bed, Chen Jing secretly went to the yard, intending to practice martial arts before going to sleep, but he saw that Li Huaxing was still there.

Chen Jing walked up, stood aside, and said:

"Excessive practice is ineffective."

When Li Huaxing saw Chen Jing approaching, he stopped and said, "I didn't practice during the day; I went to sell my paintings. I'm just catching up now."

"How are the paintings selling?" Chen Jing asked curiously.

"Not good." Li Huaxing shook his head: "It didn't sell. The buyer who was supposed to come got sick and couldn't show up."

"I'm sick..." Chen Jing said, "Maybe it's not illness, but worry about the assassins who are trying to kill Black Hand."

“It’s not that serious.” Li Huaxing shook his head: “Everyone is still living their lives well, except for not being able to leave the city. However, it is also very serious. I heard that several families who are struggling to make ends meet have started pawning their belongings, borrowing money everywhere, and some have even sold their children.”

Chen Jing pursed his lips.

“There are also some people who plan to rob other residents in the Eggshell District. Fortunately, they are afraid of Sister Zhang and her extraordinary abilities, so they did not come to our side.” Li Huaxing said, “I even heard that someone attacked the City Lord’s Mansion. If this continues, I am afraid that City Lord Liu will not be able to withstand the pressure and will open the city gates.”

The key issue wasn't Lord Liu's attitude; he was merely a puppet. The crucial factor was the attitude of the mastermind, Lu Gang… Would Lu Gang open the city gates? Or would he simply disregard the residents and continue hunting down the assassins…? Chen Jing's heart sank, but he was currently powerless to do anything. That feeling of helplessness surged up again, overshadowing his joy at becoming a Blood Realm cultivator.

"Let's not talk about this anymore." Chen Jing picked up the wooden sword and said to Li Huaxing, "Let's spar."

"Okay!" After resting for a while, Li Huaxing nodded and stood on the damp ground.

“I cannot teach you what my master taught me.” Chen Jing drew his sword. “Therefore, it would be best if you found your shortcomings and deficiencies through practice.”
