Chapter 0254 – Setting the Clouds Straight – Absolute Returns

“You want to gain insight into the heavens and foretell the future, it’s like trying to grab the clouds in the sky and find the moon in the water, delusional!”

My heart was shaken after hearing the drunken devil’s words.

Yes, the heavens are unpredictable and the future is full of variables, how can I possibly have insight into the heavens and foretell the future?

“Then how should the latecomer cultivate the Heavenly Sight and Earthly Hearing Mysteries?” I asked.

“The Heavenly Sight and Earthly Hearing Secret is not meant to gain insight into the heavens and foretell the future.” The Drunken Devil said, “Rather, it’s meant to allow you to perceive everything around you more keenly and gain clearer insight into the hearts of people.”

“When you are able to do this, you will naturally be able to see into the heavens and foretell the future!”

I was enlightened after listening to the drunken devil’s words.

Yes, the real purpose of the Heavenly Sight and Earthly Hearing Secret was not to gain insight into the heavens and foretell the future, but rather to enhance my perceptual abilities, so that I could perceive everything around me more keenly, and gain a clearer insight into the human heart.

“Thank you for your guidance, senior!” I bowed in a hurry, my heart filled with gratitude.

“There is no need to be polite.” The Drunken Devil waved his hand, “You are gifted and extremely perceptive, I believe that you will be able to grasp the mysteries of the Heavenly Sight and Earthly Hearing Mysteries!”

I took a deep breath and said with a firm gaze, “I will do my best to live up to senior’s high expectations!”

Leaving the Drunken Devil’s place, I decided to go to a late night practice party.

During this period of time, I have been busy practicing the Nine Fire Demon Technique and the Heavenly Sight and Earthly Hearing Mysteries, and it has been a long time since I have participated in a late-night cultivation party.

When he arrived at the practice room, he only saw Fist Demon, Li An and Qian Su Xi, already waiting there for a long time.

“Young Sect Master, you’re finally here!” The Fist Demon was overjoyed to see me.

“During this period of time, I’ve been busy cultivating, so please forgive me for slowing you all down.” I said with a smile.

“Young Sect Master is overstating things.” Li An said, “We all know that you are so busy in order to cultivate the Heavenly Demon Divine Sect’s Zhentiao Jiexue.”

“Alright, enough with the small talk, let’s start cultivating.” Fist Demon said impatiently.

I nodded and joined them, beginning to cultivate.

Fist Demon’s punches were fierce, domineering, and unstoppable.

Li An’s swordsmanship was light, airy and unpredictable.

Qian Su Xi’s palm technique was feminine and vicious, and it was bizarre and unpredictable.

The four of us, each displaying our own strengths, sparring and learning from each other, in the midst of fierce battles, constantly improving our strength.

Just as we were in the heat of our cultivation, I suddenly felt that there seemed to be something within my body that was quietly changing.

I stopped cultivating in a hurry and sat down on my knees, carefully feeling the changes within my body.

Gradually, I realized that the originally calm internal forces in my dantian suddenly became agitated, as if there was an invisible force that was pushing them, according to some special trajectory, to run.

I was delighted in my heart, knowing that this was a sign that the Heavenly Sight and Earthly Hearing Secret was about to break through!

I hurriedly concentrated and guided my internal energy, following the guidance of that invisible force.

Time passed by, and within my body, the invisible force grew stronger and stronger, and my internal force became more and more pure and condensed.

Finally, at one point, I felt as if a bolt of lightning crossed my mind and illuminated the entire world.

Before my eyes, I suddenly became clear, and everything around me became incredibly clear and real.

I could clearly see the dust in the air, the lines on the leaves, and even the feathers of birds flying in the distance.

I can clearly hear the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves, the gurgling of the water, and even the chirping of insects in the distance.

I could clearly feel the temperature, humidity, air pressure, and even the scent of flowers and plants in the distance around me.

“Is this the realm of the Heavenly Sight and Earthly Hearing Secret?” My heart was filled with shock and joy.

I finally broke through!

I have finally mastered the wonders of the secret of heavenly sight and hearing!

Just as I was immersed in joy, I suddenly heard a thunderous boom coming from the fist of the fist demon.

“Senior Fist Demon, you’ve broken through as well?” I asked in surprise.

“Haha, not bad!” The Fist Demon laughed out loud, “After years of bitter cultivation, the old man has finally broken through the bottleneck and reached a higher realm!”

I secretly wondered in my heart, it seems that tonight was really a good day, not only did I break through the Heavenly Sight and Earthly Hearing Secret, but the Fist Demon also broke through the bottleneck and reached a higher realm.

“Congratulations Senpai!” I said from the bottom of my heart.

“Ditto, ditto!” Fist Fiend said with a smile, “Looks like we’ll all be celebrating tonight!”

“Good!” I smiled and nodded, “Tonight, no drunkenness!”
