Chapter: 6216

Moments later, Nanao recalled her spiritual energy used for perception and looked up at Leaf Chen, saying, "Leaf Chen, before this, I could only release a tiny amount of spiritual energy, but it was hard to control its movement. However, just now, I released the spiritual energy and can move it according to my intentions. Although the movement is still somewhat slow, this feeling is simply too marvelous!"

Leaf Chen nodded, saying, "Control over spiritual energy is crucial. In the future, when you use spiritual energy to drive magical techniques or arrays, it will all depend on your intention's control over spiritual energy. You can practice a lot more from now on, and once you're proficient, I'll teach you how to use spiritual energy to drive arrays, and by that time, I'll give you a treasure that can be used for attacks!"

Ito Nanao nodded firmly, saying, "Don't worry, Leaf Chen. Nanao will definitely give it her all and won't let you down!"

Leaf Chen smiled to himself and then said, "Nanao, since you've already gained enlightenment, there's no need for you to continue training martial arts here. Instead, why don't you focus on practicing control over your spiritual energy?"

Ito Nanao knew that as a master and a warrior, the two were now completely separate worlds. Staying here would indeed be meaningless and would also hinder her from pursuing more important things, so she opened her mouth to say, "If that's the case, I'll just go find a suitable house to practice! The family of Master Tou has a spacious place at home, but it's not very convenient."

Leaf Chen couldn't help but sigh, saying, "Indeed, you should find a suitable place for spiritual cultivation. You can start by coming to my half-mountain villa, which is quieter and more private."

Ito Nanao lightly nodded her head and then asked with some expectation, "Will Leaf Chen come to that place to practice?"

Leaf Chen spoke candidly, saying, "To be honest, I don't have any good methods for further improving my cultivation at the moment, so I rarely practice normally. As for the half-mountain villa, aside from brewing some elixirs in the past, I haven't had much use for it."

Ito Nanao asked him, "Is it because you lack a cultivation method?"

Leaf Chen nodded, saying, "That's right. I'm like someone who has learned elementary school-level material but hasn't found any middle school or high school textbooks and can't find a teacher to receive guidance. I don't know how to further improve myself; it's as if I'm just drifting in the cultivation realm."

Ito Nanao saw Leaf Chen's helplessness and couldn't help but say, "Leaf Chen, please don't belittle yourself. In this world, any field of study is established by predecessors bit by bit. Cultivation is no exception. Although you may not have a pre-existing cultivation method, I believe that if Leaf Chen is willing to delve in, he might be able to cultivate his own method."

Leaf Chen didn't respond; he knew theoretically that there was such a possibility. However, it's like standing on the shoulders of giants and wanting to achieve results; it will become even simpler. If one wants to pioneer a new field and rely solely on their own abilities, it's not just a matter of difficulty but requires superhuman talent.

Leaf Chen didn't feel that he possessed such talent, but Ito Nanao's words also gave him some inspiration.

It's hard for an elementary school student to possess talents like Newton and Gauss.

But if one were to put in more effort and research on the foundation of elementary math, maybe they could even grind out some basic knowledge from middle school mathematics.

Just like before, Ito Nanao was able to achieve internal introspection and self-taught enlightenment through her own exploration, which led to a breakthrough method that accelerated her martial arts progress and laid a solid foundation for her spiritual cultivation.

As Leaf Chen thought about this, he secretly decided in his heart to spend more time at the half-mountain villa in the future, immersing himself in research and meditation, hoping to find a breakthrough path on the existing foundation.

However, when he thought of Grandma's family living at the half-mountain villa, he knew that if he came here every day to cultivate in seclusion, he would have to pass by Grandma's door, which would inevitably slow down his efficiency.

Moreover, Ito Nanao would likely come over daily as well, making it difficult for Leaf Chen to explain things to Grandma.

So, Leaf Chen began to feel a sense of urgency to find a new place for meditation.

After some thought, he recalled the large estate by the water that Fee Jiafei had bought from Qin's family when she was using the alias "Jian Fei" in Jinling.

The Qin family's villa is located at Water Cloud Mountain Manor, far away from the city center. The surroundings are exquisite, with a mountain and river view, and relatively quiet, making it an ideal place for meditation.

Moreover, Qin's family estate is a combination of two villas, not only with two villas' own architecture, but also many additions made during the early policy relaxation period, merging the two into one, actually using an area equivalent to at least three villas.

When Fee Jiafei bought this estate, she let her wife, Shao Chunran, help design and renovate it. Now, since it's been idle for some time, it would be better to buy it from Fee Jiafei and use it as a place for personal cultivation in the future.

Furthermore, Water Cloud Mountain Manor has a limited number of households, with only two or three dozen houses. Leaf Chen thinks that if he can acquire all the houses in the area, he could make it his own base. JrNovels.com
