Chapter 522: Sixth Sense of Body Cultivation, Prototype of the Field
“Is this it?”
Just as Deina was feeling anxious, a voice suddenly emerged—it was Mei Linde, who had hurried over after sensing the terrifying aura emanating from the spatial rift in the academy.
“Headmaster, what’s going on?” Deina relaxed upon seeing her, realizing she wasn’t involved in any trouble.
“You leave first and evacuate the people from the medical room,” Mei Linde responded directly without addressing Deina’s question.
Her gaze was fixed intently on the void rift appearing next to Xiao Han, her expression quite extraordinary.
Deina didn’t dare delay, immediately taking Fool Dream and leaving the scene, while other witches in the medical room hurried to evacuate the crowd.
Fortunately, it was during the holiday, and there weren’t many people in the medical room. In a short while, only the terrifying fluctuations from the void rift remained.
The wave generated by the void rift immediately attracted the attention of all witches in the Witch Academy, as most witches knew that such strange natural phenomena wouldn’t appear for no reason, and if they did, it meant one thing: the formation of the Great Spellbook!
All the witches were inexplicably astonished by the sudden success of the Great Spellbook at this moment—this was the second time recently!
Why wasn’t there a hint of warning?
The first time was with Principal Mei, so it was understandable that such information didn’t spread, but this time it shouldn’t be the same, right? Aren’t all the extraordinary witches supposed to communicate their research progress regularly?
Moreover… even the independent research base specializing in Extraordinary Knowledge felt the ripples in space, and many free witches rushed out to check the situation.
In an instant, a large crowd of extraordinary witches gathered around the medical room to watch.
“Who is this again?”
“Not a word of warning, their lips are really sealed.”
“Isn’t that place the medical room? Why would it be there?”
“Maybe inspiration struck while in the medical room? Or perhaps something prompted by being there?”
“Hey, hey! Some figures are coming out! Let’s go ask what’s happening.”
“Isn’t that Deina? Why is she in the medical room in the middle of the night? She’s even holding a catgirl!”
At that moment, Deina, who had just escaped from the medical room, was surrounded by a group of witches asking questions.
“Please, let me be. Can’t I have a little peace at night?” Deina looked at the crowd of witches surrounding her and instantly felt overwhelmed.
How could she disclose this matter? If it involved the principal, one slip of her tongue might cause trouble.
Besides, if she mentioned that the Great Spellbook and the void rift were caused by Xiao Han, would they believe her?
“I don’t know… I only know that Principal Mei is inside, and I can’t say anything else!” Under the barrage of questions from the witches, she could only reveal this small detail, since Principal Mei was in charge now, any blame could fall on her!
“Principal Mei again? Impossible!”
Such commotion naturally attracted a large number of witches, including Bai Yu.
She had witnessed such scenes before, and now witnessing it again… she understood that this was the moment when the Great Spellbook was successfully created.
Suddenly, Bai Yu instinctively wanted to contact Xiao Han to remind her to be cautious, but her call received no signal.
Since it was futile, Bai Yu summoned Knowledge Shadow, which was unique because it had been specially marked by Xiao Han.
“Xiao Han, what’s going on with your main body? You’re not answering my calls, there’s nothing wrong, right?”
“Sister Bai, I’m not quite sure~ I just know I’m working on something big, and I’m quite busy right now.”
“Busy at this hour? Alright then…” Bai Yu glanced at the time, a trace of worry flashed through her heart. Just as she was about to voice a gentle admonition, she held back. Xiao Han had her own plans; after all, wasn’t that part of her own strategy?
Not long ago, Xiao Han was conversing back and forth with the principal, and Bai Yu felt she didn’t have the right to interfere.
Bai Yu realized she seemed to be stuck in her past perceptions, yet everything was contradicting her current situation; perhaps she needed to change a bit.
…
In the medical room.
Mei Linde looked at the sleeping Xiao Han before her, her expression showing a bit of helplessness. Her gaze flicked to the side where the void rifts were—two in total, with signs of a third one beginning to tear open. However, without Xiao Han awakening, she couldn’t do anything about these void rifts.
“What’s going on… Xiao Han?”
“Mm? What are you doing here? Causing trouble?” Mei Linde looked at Beif Alanna, who had suddenly appeared, with a hint of exasperation.
“Am I not a principal too? Has Xiao Han created a new Great Spellbook again? I’ve seen this before.”
“If you haven’t seen it, you don’t have to speak. This is the refinement of the Great Spellbook, which is… that thing you created, the Great Knowledge Tree.”
“Then hurry up and block the void rifts… Uh, fine, fine, I won’t cause trouble.” Beif noticed the murderous glare from Mei Linde and quickly shut her mouth. She didn’t know anything about the Great Spellbook and was afraid she might have inadvertently touched on her knowledge blind spot.
A short while later, the hint of a third void rift began to shift.
Just as the third void rift tore open, I slowly opened my eyes.
Upon seeing this situation, Mei Linde let out a sigh of relief.
At that moment, I was still in a daze, having just realized I was no longer in my own home.
And in front of me was the academy head!
However, this situation seemed familiar; the last time it had been Principal Beif, and this time it was Principal Mei.
I instinctively glanced to the side and indeed saw Principal Beif there, but what caught my attention more were the void rifts around me.
The moment I witnessed these void rifts, I immediately understood what had happened.
“Sorry… Headmaster, I’ve caused you trouble again.” I gave a slight bitter smile, I truly hadn’t anticipated that what I had been doing during this period would cause such a significant impact, even leading to the arrival of two academy heads!
“If this is a bother, then I think you should create more.” Mei Linde chuckled lightly, not viewing this as much of a hassle. “Do you know what to do next?”
“Um, to accept these void rifts.” I nodded and replied.
However, this time, I didn’t think I needed to forcefully absorb them into my body as I did last time. My understanding of refining the Great Knowledge Tree had moved one step closer, and its power was gradually becoming more terrifying.
What had I done during this time? It had become too complicated to summarize in just a few words.
“Then let’s begin; the initiative is yours. I will assist you.” Mei Linde said.
She didn’t know much about this new Great Spellbook, so she couldn’t take the lead; she could only trust that Xiao Han could handle it.
But she was not overly worried; the tearing of the void rifts indicated the void’s recognition, also showing that Xiao Han was ready to wield this power; it was just that her current physical condition required external assistance since the void rifts weren’t a trivial matter.
“Thank you, Headmaster, then… it’s up to you.” I nodded as I slowly closed my eyes.
I was attempting to tap into the new powers I had mastered, which were quite mysterious, seemingly related to the Grand Wisdom Enlightenment Spell, the Great Knowledge Tree, and even engaged with Self-Awakened Body Cultivation. I wasn’t even sure how to define this ability.
Nonetheless, this ability could help me better wield the Great Knowledge Tree.
At the moment I closed my eyes, it felt as if everything returned to the void, and an invisible force rippled out, causing everything around me to lose its original properties—the medical room, walls, ground… they lost their material forms, and space seemed to be transforming while even physical laws were being rewritten, as new orders were being reorganized, replacing everything with nothingness.
From my center, a phantom of a great tree soared upward, the trunk condensing upwards, branches and leaves spreading, roots extending downward, penetrating the earth vein…
The original ground became like a mirror of water, ripples radiating outward from my center.
At this moment, Mei Linde and Beif Alanna stood upon the mirrored surface of this void energy, everything around them was no longer as it had previously appeared. Rippling waves also stirred beneath their feet and a power rewriting order made them focus; even Beif Alanna, usually so composed, showed a rare seriousness.
In this moment, distance seemed to have lost its meaning; they were pulled apart by the restructured order, and a colossal tree stood towering over the Witch Academy, forming a magnificent spectacle.
“This is… the Heart Realm?!” Beif Alanna asked in disbelief.
“The sixth sense of body cultivation, Heart Sense… Heart Realm transformation.” Mei Linde seemed to affirm Beif’s statement.
“How is this possible? This is body cultivation; she is still just…”
“She is self-awakened body cultivation,” Mei Linde interrupted Beif, revealing her confusion.
The uniqueness of self-awakened body cultivation lies in its natural and systematic development of sensory perception that can lead to the birth of a sixth sense, but Xiao Han’s was clearly not straightforward.
If a body cultivation expert saw this, they might not hold back their curses; after all, it wasn’t necessarily the peers who could suppress body cultivators, but also magic cultivators.
This heart realm… was clearly the transformation of the Great Knowledge Tree as Xiao Han described.
The Great Spellbook… could it also be used this way?
This notion struck Mei Linde as a blind spot in her knowledge. While she had dabbled in body cultivation, she hadn’t explored it deeply, and since she wasn’t self-awakened, she certainly wouldn’t have pursued the sixth sense as part of her training, hence she had no experimental foundation for researching such powers.
Mei Linde looked at Xiao Han with a complex gaze, silently recording and sharing information regarding the sixth sense of body cultivation with her. From observing Xiao Han, it was clear she lacked enough understanding of this power.
But even without this understanding, she suddenly realized Xiao Han could integrate the void rifts into the Great Spellbook using the power of the heart realm without needing her assistance.
Standing at the center of the Sea of Heart Realm, I felt the knowledge shared with me, making me realize the power I possessed at that moment.
“The sixth sense of body cultivation… that explains how the study of the Great Spellbook is suddenly related to body cultivation…” I murmured to myself.
But quickly clearing my thoughts, I understood that refining the Great Knowledge Tree and my understanding of the Sea of Consciousness and Dream World were merely a slight opportunity tied to my self-awakened body cultivation, so it was wholly coincidental, yet it intertwined body cultivation power with the Great Spellbook, which had no relation.
At that moment, I stood beneath the Great Knowledge Tree, its phantom gradually solidifying, while the Great Wisdom Enlightenment Tree reflected beneath me.
Knowledge Shadow stood opposing me.
At this point, this was the true “dual tree structure” now under my control, unlike the previously limited use of the Great Knowledge Tree.
For a moment, I couldn’t tell whether this fully integrated dual tree structure was derived from the Grand Wisdom Enlightenment Spell or the Great Knowledge Tree.
However, without question, at this moment, I had achieved unity of my Sea of Consciousness and Dream World through the essence of the soul, using the power of the heart realm to unify it into the Sea of Heart Realm.
It was the sixth sense and heart sense that allowed me to accomplish a unification of two entirely opposing concepts.
What was important wasn’t that it was accomplished but that I had taken that first step, broadening my new perspective!
I looked at the void rift before me. Mei Linde remained still, but I felt that even without her assistance, I could accomplish the same thing!
This void rift no longer felt dangerous; rather, it was as if the void was rewarding my efforts.
I reached out, and the void rift was effortlessly accepted by the Great Knowledge Tree, and I sensed its leveling up.
As I felt this transformation gradually stabilize, I decided not to maintain it further; this power of the heart realm had been initially grasped, and it was evident that the current situation was not suitable for prolonged exertion.
Moreover, within my heart realm, I sensed the number of powerful witches gathering around, which made me realize the commotion I had caused was indeed too great.
As I withdrew my perception, everything around me grew dreamlike—the towering Great Knowledge Tree vanished, and I remained standing on the bed in the medical room.
Principal Mei Linde and Principal Beif Alanna also emerged from the heart realm, exchanging glances and sharing their current emotions.
The earlier experience had indeed opened their eyes. They had rarely encountered body cultivation experts, but for two powerful academy heads like them, such a heart realm wasn’t sufficient to ensnare them; they merely didn’t want to cause unnecessary interference for Xiao Han.
Although they couldn’t control the heart realm, as witches, they had other means.
The sixth sense of body cultivation, the heart sense, was also called… the prototype of the field.
Extraordinary witches also held an elusive power mark over their control of the spellbook—the fieldification of the spellbook.
This wasn’t about the so-called fieldification derivations; the concept of a field was a milestone in many power systems. Still, the explosive potential of body cultivation was exceedingly unreasonable.
“Sorry, Headmaster, I suddenly caused such a big stir…” Now that I had adjusted to the new power, I opened my eyes and looked at the academy head not far from me.
“No problem, I will handle it for you.”
