In fact, not only the Master of the Reward and Punishment Hall, Xue Qiyang, thought this way, but many late-stage Foundation Establishment elders of the Immortal Mist Sect did, too.

Under normal circumstances, they would have no hope of reaching Core Formation in their lifetimes.

As they grow old and their bodies weaken, the success rate of Core Formation without assistance wouldn’t exceed 10%.

But how could they give up after enjoying over two hundred years of life, along with all the glory, wealth, and luxury that came with it?!

If they could truly find some materials for Core Formation, their chances of success could increase by 20 to 30 percent.

This kind of success rate was astonishing enough for them to take the risk.

So no matter how dangerous this Nascent Soul cave dwelling was, they wouldn’t give up.

“The Sect Master has already stated that the emergence of this Nascent Soul cave dwelling has attracted a multitude of Golden Core powers.”

“At least twenty or thirty Golden Core Masters are eyeing this Nascent Soul cave dwelling.”

“With the strength of the Immortal Mist Sect alone, we can’t possibly protect this Nascent Soul dwelling.”

“So she plans to open up this dwelling and invite other Golden Core Masters to explore it together.”

Array Peak’s Master, Yao Wen, said in a deep voice, stating Leng Yuexi’s decision.

“What? Twenty or thirty Golden Core Masters? Have all the Golden Core Masters of the entire Immortal Mist Island come here? That’s a bit exaggerated,” said one of the late-stage Foundation Establishment elders, surprised.

He knew that the emergence of Blood Shadow’s cave dwelling would attract many Golden Core powers, but he hadn’t expected this many Golden Core Masters to show up all at once.

“That is indeed a bit strange. Normally, news wouldn’t spread this quickly. However, the news spread across the Immortal Mist Island in such a short time, it’s hard not to suspect someone intentionally disseminated it.”

“But what benefit is there to spreading this news? Why not just hog the Nascent Soul cave dwelling?”

“Perhaps the sect formation restrictions of the Nascent Soul dwelling are too hard to crack, so they need the help of many Golden Core Masters.”

“Now that so many Golden Core Masters have taken action, do we, as Foundation Establishment cultivators, still have a chance?”

“It’s not necessarily hopeless. Though Golden Core Masters are powerful, they also keep each other in check and dare not act rashly. When the time comes, we may have the chance to profit from their fight.”

“Profit from their fight in front of the Golden Core Masters? That’s a bit exaggerated.”

“One does not simply walk into wealth, right? The opportunity for Core Formation is right in front of us. How could we not fight for it? Should we give this opportunity to others? I certainly don’t want to give up.”

“Everyone, don’t worry. We still have time to prepare. To break this fourth stage formation, it will take years. A large-scale battle won’t break out in a short period.”

The numerous Foundation Establishment elders of the Immortal Mist Sect were discussing fervently.

Obviously, they knew there seemed to be something fishy about the emergence of the Blood Shadow’s cave dwelling.

But faced with the opportunity for Core Formation, even if they knew something was off, they were unwilling to give up.

If they missed this chance, who knew when the next opportunity would come.

Of course, this held no attraction for Zhou Sui.

He just wanted to cultivate quietly and improve his cultivation level.

As for Blood Shadow’s cave dwelling, he had no interest at all.

Regardless, within the territory of the Immortal Mist Sect, a large number of cultivators from all over Immortal Mist Island began to gather. These included Foundation Establishment cultivators and even Golden Core cultivators who came from various parts of the island.

This made the territory of the Immortal Mist Sect more chaotic than ever, with cultivator battles breaking out incessantly.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, five years had passed.

At the Immortal Mist Sect, on the Immortal Mist Peak, inside a quiet room.

At this moment, Zhou Sui was seated cross-legged on the ground, practicing the Seven Apertures Spirit Secret.

Although his first Heart Eye for object recognition had already formed, he did not stop.

This secret technique was meant to significantly enhance his Soul Power.

After five years of cultivation, he was finally about to successfully cultivate his second Heart Eye, the eye of perception.

This was the Heart Eye he desired most.

Because it could significantly enhance his perceptive abilities, enabling him to easily observe his surroundings.

The benefits of this were immeasurable.

At this moment, Zhou Sui’s soul was immersed in the depths of the Sea of Consciousness, painstakingly etching the details of the second Heart Eye.

Aided by the power of the Bookworm, he was in a state of absolute rationality at this moment, abandoning all distractions.

After all, even the slightest negligence would lead to the failure of the formation of the Heart Eye.

At that time, all previous efforts would be wasted, forcing him to start anew.

This is why Seven Apertures Spirit Secret is so difficult to cultivate successfully.

Either you succeed at once, or you fail, suffering severe damage to your soul.

It could be said that one must succeed or perish.

Boom boom boom—

At this moment, Zhou Sui perceived that the last stroke of the soul pattern had been drawn, as if the last piece of a puzzle, the last part had been found.

With a snap, the Eye of the Heart instantly solidified, forming into a perfect eye.

In the depths of his heart, another illusory eye appeared.

“I succeeded.”

A joyous smile crept onto Zhou Sui’s face. He felt incredibly excited and began manipulating the power of this Heart Eye.

Suddenly, an invisible surge of the Strength of Heart emanated.

Two hundred and fifty zhang, five hundred zhang, seven hundred zhang, one thousand zhang…

In the end, the range of the Strength of Heart expanded to two thousand five hundred zhang.

This was a terrifying distance.

Because even cultivators who had advanced to the early stage of the Golden Core, did not have such a huge range of Divine Sense exploration.

But with the aid of the power of the Heart Eye, this was achieved effortlessly.

Not only that, it wasn’t just an extension of the scanning range.

More importantly, its power was extremely covert, merged into the void, and the other Foundation Establishment cultivators, even the Golden Core Masters, were unable to perceive the inspection of the Strength of Heart.

Honestly, this was the formidable part of the Heart Eye inspection.

If it were Divine Sense exploration, it would have been noticed by other Foundation Establishment cultivators.

It could even be perceived as offensive, and might lead to conflict with other Foundation Establishment cultivators.

“Interesting.”

Zhou Sui sat quietly in the chamber, his power of Heart Eye continuously radiating in all directions. Firstly, it perceived the four concubines of Immortal Mist Peak, each immersed in their vigorous cultivation in their respective rooms.

Ji Bingyu was practicing Swordsmanship, Mu Ziyi was drawing symbols, Xia Jingyan was setting up a formation, and Leng Yuexi was diligently cultivating.

All four concubines were focused and oblivious to the power of the Heart Eye observing them.

As the strength of the Heart Eye expanded, it covered surrounding mountain peaks.

He perceived numerous Immortal Mist Sect cultivators practicing on their respective peaks.

The cultivators of Reward and Punishment Peak, Pill Medicine Peak, Artifact Refining Peak, Array Peak and so forth, all appeared within his Heart Eye.

Some were planting Spiritual Medicines, some were doing Alchemy, some were practicing skills, some were absorbing Spiritual Energy, etc.

No matter what they were doing, they could not detect it in the slightest.

It felt as if he was overseeing from a higher dimension, embodying an incredibly miraculous power.

“Incredible.”

“Is this the ability of Heart Eye inspection?”

Zhou Sui was also amazed. Although he knew that each Heart Eye has its own mysterious aspects, the capability of Heart Eye inspection had exceeded his imagination.

It was like having a God’s-eye view, or a higher-dimensional perspective.

It was not something an ordinary cultivator could perceive..
