Longevity Gu Dao: Start From Refining Infatuation Gu

Chapter 169: Condensing the First Mind's Eye, All-Knowing Identification Technique

"Hmm?!"

When Zhou Sui fed the Book Gu a portion of the inheritance jade slip, he immediately noticed that the comprehension and time provided by the Book Gu had become several times stronger than before.

At this moment, he felt as if he possessed the comprehension of an unparalleled genius.

No matter what knowledge he tried to comprehend, it was as easy as flipping his hand.

All the doubts and puzzles that had previously troubled him were resolved at this moment.

"Right, I can take this opportunity to cultivate the Seven Orifice Exquisite Book."

Zhou Sui's eyes gleamed with excitement.

He had possessed the Seven Orifice Exquisite Book for over a year, but he had never successfully cultivated the first mind's eye.

Of course, this was also because he hadn't diligently practiced this technique.

After all, he had many other things to learn and cultivate, such as alchemy, the Divine Gu Sutra, the Demon Summoning Heart Sutra, and so on.

Regardless of which one, they all required a great deal of energy and time.

But with his increased comprehension now, he wanted to thoroughly comprehend the first mind's eye.

Boom!

In an instant, Zhou Sui sat cross-legged on the ground, mobilizing the power of his divine sense to construct this mind's eye.

Originally, after more than a year of cultivation, the mind's eye had already reached a level of 65%.

It wasn't far from complete construction.

Now, his cultivation had advanced to the early stage of Foundation Building, and the power of his divine sense had doubled.

Coupled with the assistance of the Book Gu's power.

So constructing the mind's eye became even easier.

Lines began to be outlined with divine sense, incredibly clear and without any omission.

66%, 70%, 75%, 80%...

The speed of constructing the mind's eye became faster and faster, perhaps due to practice making perfect.

In the blink of an eye, three days and nights had passed.

Boom!

Suddenly, Zhou Sui's body and mind trembled violently, as if resonating. When the last stroke of the lines was outlined, the entire mind's eye closed seamlessly in an instant.

A perfect mind's eye had formed, no longer prone to collapse, and began to operate on its own.

"So this is the mind's eye for identification?"

In an instant, Zhou Sui sensed deep within his heart, a phantom eye immediately appeared, presenting a dark golden color with mysterious patterns in the depths of the pupil.

It was like the most precise machine, where adding or removing a single part could cause the machine to break down.

With his body as the center, invisible forces of the heart spread out in circles.

It was a higher-dimensional force compared to the power of divine sense.

As if it were a higher-dimensional force, merging into the void, silent and soundless, perceiving the essence.

Thinking of this, he waved his hand and immediately took out a pile of things from the internal space of the Divine Gu Bowl.

These were all gifts obtained during the Foundation Building ceremony.

They were perfect for testing the power of the mind's eye.

[Wood Essence Pill, Rank Two high-grade pill, containing pure wood essence power. Taking one Wood Essence Pill can greatly increase the cultivation of a Foundation Building cultivator. The medicinal properties are mild and do not cause much harm to cultivators.]

[Red Fire Pill, Rank Two high-grade pill, containing pure fire essence power. The medicinal properties are extremely fierce. Taking one can greatly increase the cultivation of a Foundation Building cultivator, but it is easy to damage the meridians and body. It is better for Foundation Building cultivators with strong bodies to take it.]

[Ice Snake Sword, low-grade Spiritual Weapon, containing the power of ice. Once unleashed, it possesses effects such as freezing and slowing down, and its speed is extremely fast, like a venomous snake biting.]

[Thick Earth Bracelet, medium-grade defensive Spiritual Weapon, can form the power of thick earth, condensing into an earth barrier that can withstand most attacks and slow down the speed and strength of Foundation Building cultivators.]

[Concentrated Spirit Grass, Rank Two spiritual herb, containing the effect of concentrating the spirit and calming the mind. It can help cultivators enter a meditative state faster and also slightly increase their divine sense.]

Instantly, a series of information flooded into his sea of consciousness like a tide.

The information about each treasure on the ground instantly appeared, without any concealment.

"So this is the power of discerning objects with the mind?"

"It's simply an identification technique."

Zhou Sui widened his eyes, feeling extremely delighted and joyful.

He finally understood how the former patriarch of the Lu family, Lu Hongran, had become wealthy.

The other party was originally just an independent cultivator, but with the power of discerning objects with the mind, they began to resell various treasures and materials, taking advantage of the market.

As long as they took advantage once, they could make a fortune.

Indeed, the power of discerning objects with the mind was incredibly strong.

After all, there were countless treasures in the cultivation world.

But due to the lack of inheritance, not everyone could recognize the value of these treasures.

Moreover, treasures could also conceal themselves, disguising as worthless items.

Even the most perceptive cultivators couldn't detect them.

But discerning objects with the mind was different. It was like an identification technique, able to identify every unknown item.

Even if it had never been seen or heard of before, it could be easily identified.

With this ability, he would no longer miss out on various treasures.

He was essentially the strongest appraiser.

"The principle of discerning objects with the mind is to use the mind to listen to the voice of the item."

"Although each item is lifeless, they still retain many pieces of information."

"These pieces of information cannot be perceived by ordinary cultivators."

"But discerning objects with the mind is different. It can listen to these pieces of information from the items."

"So even if you have never seen this item before, you can easily identify its information."

"That's the amazing part of discerning objects with the mind."

Zhou Sui's eyes sparkled.

He could perceive the power of this supreme technique, the Seven Orifice Exquisite Book. Once successfully cultivated, it would be like creating a powerful spiritual body or having innate talent.

The help it provided to cultivators was unimaginable.

However, successfully cultivating this technique was extremely difficult.

Apart from the founder of this technique, very few could succeed in cultivation.

He also relied on the power of the Book Gu to successfully cultivate this technique.

Without the help of the Book Gu, he probably wouldn't have been able to even start.

"The second eye is insight."

"This eye can be considered the strongest means of investigation."

"If successfully cultivated, the power of the eye's investigation would be more than ten times stronger than divine sense."

"More importantly, the power of the eye cannot be detected by Foundation Building cultivators or Gold Core cultivators."

"Unlike the power of divine sense, if it spreads out, it will definitely be detected."

"In this way, the element of surprise is lost."

Zhou Sui clenched his fist.

He felt excited in his heart.

Just the first eye, discerning objects with the mind, was already so powerful. If he could successfully cultivate the second eye, then his auxiliary means would be heaven-defying.

It would be like adding a radar that could scan all major areas at any time.

Undoubtedly, this would greatly enhance his safety.

It would be almost impossible for enemies to plot against him.
