I Can Share Others' Opportunities

Chapter 56: Chapter 53: Really Found a Treasure!

Liu Zimo did not stay long at the Military Staff Department.

After thoroughly intimidating everyone, he left the three Inner Guards and Yang Sisi at the Military Staff Department to assist Liang Luojun with his work while also supervising the follow-up. As for himself, he returned home and became a hands-off shopkeeper.

In fact, Liu Zimo had little interest in power and authority, let alone any thoughts of ruling or dominating the entire Luozhou City. From beginning to end, all he wanted was to continuously improve his cultivation and strength. He would be satisfied as long as he could protect himself and his family in the Post-Apocalypse.

It was just that the current situation in Luozhou was far too terrible. It was so bad that many Martial Artists, instead of thinking about hunting and exterminating Demon Beasts, hid in dark corners to wantonly bully and even slaughter ordinary residents. There were many people who, like his uncle, fell ill but could not find doctors or medicine, leaving them to wait silently for death at home. There were also many who, unable to find food and water, gave rise to malicious thoughts and began to loot or murder their neighbors.

If the major factions in the city worked together, they clearly had the ability to establish defense lines early on, restore order, and end the chaos in the city. However, out of their own selfish desires, they just kept dragging things out, holding each other back, and wasting a massive amount of Time in vain.

These people did not know the importance of Time in the early stages of the calamity, but as a Reincarnator, how could Liu Zimo not know?

It had been exactly ten days since the first wave of the Demon Calamity descended. If nothing unexpected happened, the second wave of the Demon Calamity would strike again in five days at most. With the current chaotic situation in Luozhou City, when the second wave of Demon Beasts arrived, who knew how many more people would die in vain!

Unable to stand it any longer, Liu Zimo had no choice but to use ruthless methods to forcibly intimidate and subjugate all the factions, aiming to end the chaos in the city as soon as possible and make full preparations for the second wave of Demon Beast attacks.

SWISH!

Liu Zimo flashed back into his home. His younger brother, Zihao, was still in the inner bedroom taking care of their uncle. From his uncle’s breathing, it could be determined that his condition had basically stabilized and his high fever should have subsided. Meanwhile, his father was absent-mindedly staying in the living room, playing hide-and-seek with Feihong.

When Liu Zimo returned, he happened to catch him cheating.

”Impossible! You must have peeked, little girl! I clearly used Invisibility just now, so how could you possibly find me so quickly?”

Having his hiding spot discovered by Feihong yet again, Liu Yi looked at the little kid in front of him with a face full of disbelief. He just couldn’t understand it. He had hidden so well every time, so how did this girl manage to find him immediately? Especially this last time, in order to tease the little girl, Liu Yi had even specifically used his Invisibility Superpower. He had originally wanted to jump out and give her a huge fright when she couldn’t find him.

As a result, just like the previous few times, almost the very next second after he hid himself, the little girl dragged him out. This completely dumbfounded Liu Yi, and he even began to wonder if his Superpower had lost its effectiveness.

Seeing this, Liu Zimo seemed to realize something.

Previously, when trapped in Jingyong Taoist’s Illusion Array, Feihong had displayed a spiritual will far different from ordinary people, quickly waking up from the illusion. Now, even his father’s Invisibility Superpower seemed to have failed in front of her. What did this mean? This meant that Feihong definitely possessed an innate Spiritual Sense, making her a Spirit Cultivator prodigy whose Spiritual Power was naturally stronger than ordinary people!

No wonder the intensity of the Shadow-Locking Radiance above this girl’s head was even far beyond that of the two future Martial Saints, Hong Yuxun and Lou Yuchen. Come to think of it, besides her already extraordinary Martial Dao aptitude, her innate Spirit Cultivator talent should also be one of the reasons that caused her Shadow-Locking Radiance to shine so brilliantly.

In Liu Zimo’s memories, among the three great Martial Saints of the human race in the future, apart from Saint Zhiyuan of Dalin Temple who concurrently cultivated both Martial Dao and the Divine Soul, Yu Xun Martial Saint and Yu Chen Martial Saint were purely Martial Arts Saints, and neither possessed any talent in spirit cultivation.

He thought, ”If this girl can grow up smoothly, her future achievements might even surpass the three great Martial Saints!”

Liu Zimo’s gaze fell upon Feihong, full of high hopes for the little girl’s future.

”Master!”

As if sensing Liu Zimo’s gaze, Feihong directly ditched Liu Yi, who was currently arguing with her, and leaped into Liu Zimo’s embrace.

Seeing this, Liu Yi finally noticed his eldest son’s presence, and his old face couldn’t help but turn red.

”Well, I was just bored and teasing the little girl...” After awkwardly explaining himself, Liu Yi coughed lightly and said seriously, ”However, this little girl really is somewhat extraordinary. She’s so small, yet her strength is actually greater than mine. And her eyesight is incredibly sharp. The light in the room is so dim, yet she can quickly find me every single time.”

Liu Zimo glanced speechlessly at his dad. Were all the elderly people born in the 1990s this ”lively,” or was it just his dad who acted like a child that never grew up? He was already in his forties. Playing hide-and-seek with a child was one thing, but to actually cheat, really...

”Master, Grandmaster and I had so much fun playing, and Grandmaster even gave me snacks to eat. Look!” Feihong pulled out a small packet of spicy strips from her pocket and proudly showed it off to Liu Zimo.

Liu Zimo was speechless once again; he knew he couldn’t let his dad babysit. Spicy strips were famously known as junk food. It was one thing for adults to eat a bit to satisfy their cravings, but how could he give them to such a young child?

However, seeing how happy the little girl looked, Liu Zimo couldn’t be bothered to say anything more. In any case, the little girl was already at the Iron Bone Realm, so a little bit of junk food wouldn’t pose any threat to her health. Besides, it was already the Post-Apocalypse after all. In a while longer, small snacks like spicy strips, crispy rice crusts, and biscuits might never be eaten again.

”Alright, put it away for now. Master is going to teach you a new Cultivation Technique today. Remember to practice it well!” Liu Zimo set Feihong down, then turned his head to look at his dad nearby. ”Dad, you should try learning it too. If you can learn it and successfully get started, it should be quite helpful for your Invisibility Superpower. At the very least, you won’t be discovered by Feihong so easily when you play hide-and-seek with her in the future.”

Liu Yi’s eyes lit up. He could definitely get behind this! This kid really was something; why hadn’t he brought out such a good Cultivation Technique earlier?

SWISH! With his interest greatly piqued, Liu Yi quickly trotted over. He even pulled out a pen and a small notebook from his pocket, looking extremely serious and eager.

Liu Zimo’s mouth twitched, but he quickly adjusted his emotions and said solemnly, ”Alright, what I’m going to teach you next is a special Cultivation Technique specifically used to cultivate Spiritual Power.

”First of all, before circulating the technique, you must achieve Ning Xin and Jingyi, empty your mind, concentrate entirely on counting, and allow no distracting thoughts to arise.

”Secondly, you must firmly remember the circulation method of the Spiritual Essence Technique. Travel through the Spiritual Platform, pass through the Divine Mansion, keep your heart unburdened, and keep the Spiritual Platform serene...”

Liu Zimo explained the cultivation method of the Spiritual Essence Technique word for word to Feihong and his dad.

After listening just once, Feihong nodded to indicate she had already memorized it. Furthermore, without needing Liu Zimo’s guidance, she sat cross-legged on the sofa by herself. The moment she took a breath, she instantly entered Meditation, directly slipping into the ethereal state of meditative cultivation.

Sending out his Spiritual Sense and feeling the subtle mental fluctuations transmitting from the little girl’s forehead, Liu Zimo knew that Feihong was already capable of independently triggering the Spiritual Power at her Spiritual Platform. She had officially gotten started!

Sure enough, just a few minutes after Feihong successfully entered Meditation, relevant notification sounds rang in Liu Zimo’s ears:

[Your bestie Ye Feihong practiced the Spiritual Essence Technique, gained insights in her heart, and experienced an outburst of spiritual inspiration, successfully opening her Sea of Consciousness in one fell swoop and breaking through to the Spiritual Essence Realm!

Triggering the Heaven-Stealing Talent Attribute. The serendipity is shared equally, taking half of her cultivation increment. Spiritual Power +10, Divine Soul Strength +5, Lifespan +3.]

It was a success!

Taking less than ten minutes, the little girl had actually successfully opened up her Sea of Consciousness, setting foot into the Spiritual Essence Realm! The massive amount of Spiritual Power that suddenly surged forth in his Sea of Consciousness instantly caused Liu Zimo’s Spiritual Power Cultivation to skyrocket by nearly a third!

Liu Zimo was thrilled and overjoyed.

The facts had proven once again that not only were Feihong’s comprehension and aptitude in the Martial Dao extremely astonishing, but her talent in the path of the Spirit Cultivator was also far beyond what ordinary Spirit Cultivators could compare to. At least in his previous life, Liu Zimo had never heard of any Spirit Cultivator being able to instantly enter Meditation, grasp the basics in a second, and go from zero to one in just ten short minutes to open up their Sea of Consciousness and step into the Spiritual Essence Realm during their very first time practicing the Spiritual Essence Technique.

”I really picked up a treasure!” Liu Zimo marveled inwardly once again. When he looked at Feihong, it was as if he were looking at a rare and priceless jewel.

In comparison, his dad sitting next to Feihong appeared far inferior. He had taken a huge notebook full of notes, but when it actually came to practical cultivation, he couldn’t figure out how to even get started for the longest time. In the end, it was only under the guidance of Liu Zimo’s Spiritual Sense that he managed to find the trick step by step and successfully trigger a trace of mental fluctuation on his Spiritual Platform.

He thought, ”As expected, being able to awaken the Invisibility Superpower means that Dad’s Spiritual Power is also far above that of ordinary people, and he indeed possesses the talent to cultivate the Spiritual Essence Technique.

”However, it’s merely a bit of talent. Compared to a Spirit Cultivator prodigy like Feihong, the gap isn’t just a little bit!”

Liu Zimo glanced at the Shadow Lock above his dad’s head. Because of the awakened Invisibility Superpower, the color of the Shadow Lock had advanced to blue. It radiated brightly, several times stronger than its previous white light. Except now, as he sat next to Feihong, illuminated by the sun-like purple-gold Shadow Lock above the little girl’s head, this touch of blue radiance appeared so insignificant and imperceptible.

He thought, ”Speaking of which, I’m the one being a bit too greedy.”

Taking a deep breath, Liu Zimo withdrew his thoughts and quickly adjusted his mindset.

He thought, ”Compared to a Martial Saint Level prodigy, ninety-nine percent of the people in this world would be considered trash!

”Regardless, Dad now has a certain degree of self-preservation capability. No matter what, his future strength will definitely be much greater than mine in my previous life!”
