Inside the villa, Yang Shen paced back and forth, frowning as he studied the cultivation progress of Yang Hongyan and the others.
"The last time I felt so upset was on the way to the safe zone, when that giant spider quietly crawled onto the last bus..."
Yang Shen was in a state of turmoil, and it seemed like nothing he did felt right.
"Could something big have happened again? But I don't sense any crisis, and I haven't even 'seen' any crisis in Hongyan and the others..."
"Could this crisis be a large-scale... or rather, an objectively major crisis?"
After some clumsy deduction, Yang Shen concluded that the dangers ahead should not pose a life-threatening threat to them.
"If it's not directly targeting us, then it's very likely environmental, a threat to the entire security zone."
"Is it because I need the people in the safe zone to provide me with experience, and the safe zone is facing a major threat that will also cause me losses that I'm upset about?"
Thinking about this, Yang Shen calmed down.
If it really is a problem with the overall environment, with his current strength, he is not capable of turning the tide.
"Since that's the case, there's no use in rushing. Let's study my sister's cultivation technique first."
Yang Shen calmed down and carefully observed his sister's cultivation: "From last night until now, Hongyan has absorbed quite a lot of energy, but the energy in Hongyan's body is not saturated. It seems that the energy has disappeared. Where did it go?"
"I've figured out the principles of the technique; now all that's missing is the method of energy storage."
With a thought, Yang Shen drained the energy from the living room, leaving not a single free energy particle.
Unable to absorb energy, Yang Hongyan and the others naturally awoke from their cultivation state.
"Huh, it's already dawn?"
Time flies.
"Brother Yang is back..."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then quickly greeted Yang Shen when they saw him.
"Brother, you're back!" Yang Hongyan said with delight. Last night, she had only intended to cultivate for a little while, but she didn't expect to get so engrossed in it.
Yang Shen smiled and nodded, saying, "Hongyan, read the cultivation technique to me. Um, by the way, where do you store the energy you cultivate?"
"Energy should naturally be stored in the spiritual sea."
Yang Hongyan said, "I was going to tell you this before, but you wouldn't listen. Whether you're an ordinary person or a superhuman, the first thing you do when you start cultivating is to sense energy, absorb energy, and then use the absorbed energy to open up your spiritual sea. This is because the human body cannot store too much energy; energy is stored in the spiritual sea."
Yang Shen's spirits lifted immediately, and his mind cleared: "The Spirit Sea... I see, I see!"
He felt that the human body simply couldn't store much energy, and even he couldn't store much energy.
There was also a Spirit Sea.
"If I also open up my spiritual sea, will I be able to cultivate?"
"Although my physical body cannot absorb evolutionary energy to break through the cultivation barrier, the energy itself is different; these are almost two completely different systems!"
Yang Shen was thrilled, feeling that he had found a way to quickly improve his strength: "Hongyan, tell me quickly, how do I open up the Spirit Sea?"
"Hmm." Seeing her brother's surprised expression, Yang Hongyan also became happy and then recited the technique word for word.
After listening to his sister recite the cultivation technique, Yang Shen completely ignored the technique's circulation route and energy sensing and absorption methods, and instead focused on studying the opening of the spiritual sea.
"So the so-called spiritual sea is the legendary dantian?"
"In that case—"
Yang Shen sat down cross-legged on the living room sofa and first used his inner vision to find the exact location of his spiritual sea.
Before long, he found the spot, a 'point' located below his lower abdomen.
The state of this point is strange; it seems to be part of the physical body, yet it also feels detached from it.
However, while it may seem to exist outside the physical body, it is inextricably linked to it.
"I see. The state of the spiritual sea is truly miraculous. In this way, even if the lower body is severed, it may not necessarily lose its energy source, and the cultivation will remain. The spiritual sea will not 'fall' along with the physical body."
After thoroughly understanding the state of his spiritual sea, Yang Shen moved his mind, and the energy of heaven and earth gathered, causing his entire body to radiate a dazzling light.
Yang Hongyan and the others who were standing nearby were almost scared out of their wits when they saw this scene.
"The speed at which this energy is being absorbed... is just too fast!"
They absorbed more energy than they did even after a whole night of cultivation.
At this moment, Yang Shen had already mobilized all the energy he had absorbed and was rushing towards the spiritual sea.
The next moment, he felt a loud "boom," and then his consciousness was pulled into a gray space.
"Is this the Spirit Sea?"
Yang Shen was amazed as he sensed the situation within his spiritual sea. It was as if the world had never been created; everything was shrouded in a gray haze, and it was impossible to tell how vast it was.
Inside his spiritual sea, there was a hazy gray gas. In his perception, that gas was like the manifestation of his essence, energy, and spirit, and he felt that the gas was very important.
"We'll study that later; let's focus on improving our strength first."
With another thought, he drew upon the free-floating energy in the outside world, which he then absorbed.
The energy he absorbed into his body almost spontaneously surged towards his spiritual sea.
Soon, all the energy entered the spiritual sea, circulated within it, and merged with some hazy aura inside the spiritual sea.
In that instant, Yang Shen clearly felt that the energy seemed to have merged with him, truly becoming his own energy.
