ng Zhang's Soul state naturally couldn't consu food like his physical body. He only made the motion of swallowing the fruit, but in reality, he infused the fruit into his Soul and slowly digested it using Soul power. The Divine Ability Fruit was not ant for physical consumption but to be absorbed through the Soul.
While digesting the Divine Ability Fruit, more information about it started to resurface in ng Zhang's mind. The Divine Ability Fruit had an extrely potent stimulating effect on the Soul, inducing a strong Soul mutation that granted the consur innate Divine Abilities. However, if the cultivator's Soul was not strong or resilient enough, consuming the fruit might not result in the birth of Divine Abilities and could even severely damage the Soul, leading to possible death.
Furthermore, even if a cultivator with bad luck consud the fruit, they might end up with no Divine Ability. As a transmigrator, ng Zhang's Soul was originally much more resilient and powerful than an ordinary cultivator's. Having spent so much ti in the Trial Ground, his Soul had been strengthened multiple tis. He believed that his Soul could withstand the stimulation of the Divine Ability Fruit.
As for luck, ng Zhang had no control over it. However, he didn't believe himself to be that unlucky. Waves of intense pain swept through ng Zhang's Soul. At one mont, it was scorching hot, as if his Soul was about to be burnt to ashes. At another mont, it was bone-chillingly cold, as if his Soul was about to freeze and shatter. Finally, it felt like his Soul was being torn apart, pulled and ripped by an inexplicable force.
Enduring several unbearable tortures that an ordinary person couldn't withstand, ng Zhang managed to hold on. After what seed like a long ti, he felt the pain gradually subsiding, and his Soul returned to normal. However, before ng Zhang could examine his Soul, the ti he was allowed to stay had expired, and the Trial Ground rejected him.
After the Divine Soul returned to his body, ng Zhang didn't imdiately expel the yin qi from his physical body. Instead, he urgently checked his Soul. However, he was interrupted by a sudden intense pain in his physical body, especially in his eyes, which stung severely. It took a while for his physical body to return to normal.
Closing his eyes and carefully sensing, after a long ti, ng Zhang opened his eyes with a pleased expression. The power of the Divine Ability Fruit was truly incredible. Not only did it stimulate his Soul and create Soul mutations, but the intense Soul mutation also caused a physical mutation.
After refining the Divine Ability Fruit, ng Zhang gained two Divine Abilities. One was Mind Reading, allowing him to discern people's hearts and distinguish between good and evil. For cultivators whose cultivation base was lower than his, their deepest secrets and thoughts would be hard to hide from him when they appeared in front of him. For cultivators with similar cultivation bases, their surface thoughts and intentions, both good and evil, would be known to him. Even if soone with a higher cultivation base, he couldn't read their specific thoughts, but he could judge whether they harbored malicious intent.
Of course, if soone possessed certain secret techniques to conceal their thoughts, they could evade Mind Reading's probing.
The other Divine Ability was Deception Breaking Eye, allowing ng Zhang to see through all falsehoods and discern the truth directly. However, for falsehoods with an excessively high level of cultivation, he couldn't see through them at the mont.
These two Divine Abilities were ng Zhang's innate Divine Abilities, requiring no cultivation and could be freely used. Moreover, as ng Zhang's Cultivation Base improved in the future, these two innate Divine Abilities would naturally also enhance.
ng Zhang wanted to try out the power of these two Divine Abilities but had no suitable opportunities. Using Mind Reading on fellow sect mbers to delve into their innermost secrets didn't sit well with him. He felt it was inappropriate to do so among the sa sect. He needed to set boundaries and guidelines for using this Divine Ability. This was his self-restraint and moral stance.
When dayti arrived, after expelling the yin qi from his physical body, ng Zhang followed his usual routine of recording all the knowledge he gained in the Trial Ground and stored it in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion.
During this period, ng Zhang engaged in a fierce killing spree in the Trial Ground and obtained significant gains. Besides the various comprehensive knowledge, there were several high-level cultivation techniques such as "Clearwater True Art," "Thousand Chances Atlas," "Vigorous Vajra Art," and "One Origin Formation Chart," among others. There were also nurous other useful secret arts.
ng Zhang was pleased; through his desperate efforts in the Trial Ground, he acquired many inheritances from Taiyi Sect's pri, enriching the sect's foundation.
By now, except for that canyon, ng Zhang had almost cleared out all the other places in the Trial Ground. Even if he entered the Trial Ground again, he probably wouldn't gain much, as the monsters wouldn't respawn like in a ga.
Based on his experiences from multiple entries into the Trial Ground, he believed that the number of Ghosts here was fixed, and there would be no replenishnt after he eliminated them.
Regarding that canyon, ng Zhang remained cautious. If he didn't have absolute certainty, he wouldn't rashly take risks.
ng Zhang felt that he had already obtained the majority of the inheritances from this Trial Ground. Until he found a solution to the canyon, he wouldn't enter the Trial Ground again.
In the days that followed, ng Zhang no longer entered the Trial Ground at night. After diligent cultivation during the day, he didn't relax at night either. He needed to fully digest and absorb the various knowledge he obtained from the Trial Ground.
However, the busy and fulfilling days were interrupted by unavoidable administrative tasks. Tian Zhen arrived at his cultivation place to remind him that it was ti for the annual procurent.
Sweetwater Oasis was just a small oasis, and its population was limited. With the increase in mortal population over the years, the oasis could no longer sustain itself with the food it produced alone.
For Taiyi Sect, a larger mortal population in their territory ant more potential disciples with spiritual roots. Therefore, Taiyi Sect naturally wanted to help resolve the problems faced by the mortals under their rule.
In the harsh environnt of the Endless Sea of Sand, a purely mortal rchant caravan wouldn't survive, and there were no trade transactions between mortal oases either. Even the exchanges of goods between different mortal oases had to rely on the efforts of cultivators.
The amount of storage space provided by the storage bag used by low-level cultivators like ng Zhang was roughly equivalent to one cubic ter in his previous life. This space was enough to store daily necessities for cultivators but not enough for transporting large quantities of food and other supplies.
In the Cultivation World, there were larger storage bags with greater storage space, but they were expensive and not cost-effective. In the local market, the price of a regular storage bag didn't exceed fifty low-grade spirit stones, and there would be discounts for bulk purchases. On the other hand, a tenfold storage bag cost over a thousand low-grade spirit stones and was often out of stock.
For a poor sect like Taiyi Sect, they couldn't afford to spend so many spirit stones on storage bags.
