Other than Chen Zong, no one else knew what happened in the Tower of Ascension that night.
After calming himself down, Chen Zong began to comprehend the Art of Spiritual Enhancement.
The Art of Spiritual Enhancement was rather peculiar. When he first received the inheritance, Chen Zong seemed to be able to see everything, but he did not remember it. He only had a general understanding of it. Now that he had calmed down to comprehend it, he realized that he only knew the first level.
The Art of Five Senses!
The Five Senses were the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and body. They represented vision, hearing, smell, taste, and touch.
Everyone had the Five Senses as long as they were complete.
After obtaining the mysterious sword tip, Chen Zong's meridians had been cleansed and his bones had been reborn. His Five Senses were different from ordinary people. The strength of his Five Senses was closely related to his Spiritual Power.
If his Spiritual Power was strong, his Five Senses would be strong.
On the other hand, if his Five Senses were strong, his Spiritual Power would also be strengthened.
The first level of the Art of Spiritual Enhancement was to cultivate the Five Senses to a certain limit and strengthen his Spiritual Power. Only then would he enter the second level.
The first level of the Art of Spiritual Enhancement was the Art of Five Senses. It was not difficult. After about two hours, Chen Zong had finished comprehending it and began cultivating.
Now that he had reached a bottleneck in cultivating the Third Change of Mind, he put it aside for the time being. He would cultivate the Art of Spiritual Enhancement first to strengthen his Spiritual Power and further master his Spiritual Power. Perhaps he would be able to cultivate the Change of Mind better in the future.
They complemented each other.
The Five Senses were the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and body. Chen Zong began cultivating with his eyes.
Ou Yangming raised his hands and pointed his index fingers at the sides of his eyes. He pressed hard, causing his eyes to feel like they were being squeezed. At the same time, he channeled the Five Senses' Eye Recognition Technique. His mental power slowly moved and gathered in his eyes.
A sour feeling arose spontaneously. Waves of burning heat slowly rose in his eyes. Chen Zong only felt that his eyes were about to be squeezed and burned. It was a very uncomfortable feeling.
However, this was a necessary process in cultivating the Art of Five Senses.
As time passed, the pain in his eyes became more and more intense. It was so intense that Chen Zong almost gave up, but he persevered with his strong will.
Two hours later, Chen Zong stopped because he felt that his eyes had reached their limit. If he continued, it would only damage them.
When the mental power dissipated, the sourness, swelling, and scorching heat also faded away. Instead, he felt relaxed and cool. It was so comfortable that Chen Zong could not help but moan.
After a while, the comfortable feeling disappeared and his eyes recovered. When Chen Zong opened his eyes, there seemed to be a clear stream flowing through his eyes, pure and flawless.
Looking ahead, he suddenly had a clearer feeling, as if the dust had been wiped away.
He slowly shifted his line of sight and then opened the window to look outside. He could clearly see the veins on the leaves of a large tree thousands of meters away, as if they were right in front of him.
Although he could do it in the past, it wasn't as clear as it was now.
"It's at least 30% better," Chen Zong said to himself.
This kind of improvement was an overall improvement. It allowed his vision to become clearer, and he could capture even more minute details.
Super vision was very important to a martial artist. It allowed him to see the minute details that others could not see. In a battle, he could seize the initiative and detect his opponent's movements earlier, so he could react better.
Retracting his gaze, Chen Zong continued to cultivate. This time, he was cultivating his sense of hearing, which was his sense of hearing.
He gathered his mental power from both his index fingers to his ears. His ears felt like they were being stretched open, and there was an invisible force constantly squeezing in. It felt like his ears were about to explode, and his eardrums were about to collapse. It was terrifying.
Chen Zong forced himself to endure the uncomfortable feeling and kept using his mental power to refine his ears. Gradually, there seemed to be a buzzing sound in his ears. It was like a demon's voice was pouring into his brain, making Chen Zong feel even more uncomfortable and painful.
The feeling grew stronger, and Chen Zong had the urge to break his head. After two hours, Chen Zong stopped. His mental power spread out, and the uncomfortable feeling faded away. Then, countless sounds came from all directions and kept entering his ears.
Vaguely, Chen Zong seemed to hear conversations and various other sounds coming from the room next door. It was blurry and noisy. In the past, it was impossible to achieve this without deliberate effort. Now, he was able to do it unintentionally.
After this round of cultivation, his sense of hearing had improved significantly.
After that, it was time to cultivate his sense of smell, which was his sense of smell.
Similarly, he cultivated for two hours and had to endure extreme pain, but Chen Zong persevered. After that, his sense of smell improved significantly, and he could smell the scents in the air more clearly.
Everything in the world had its own smell. Only some of them were quite rich, while others were very, very faint, almost undetectable.
However, when one's sense of smell reached a certain level, one could smell everything.
The smell of wood, the smell of potted plants in the corner, and various smells drifted in from outside the window.
After that, it was time to cultivate his sense of smell, which was his sense of taste.
When people ate, other than to fill their stomachs and survive, it was also a kind of enjoyment. To enjoy the taste of different foods, one needed to distinguish them with their sense of taste.
After two hours of cultivation, Chen Zong felt that his tongue was numb and swollen. It was also burning hot, as if it had been thrown into an oven.
After cultivating his sense of smell, Chen Zong did not feel anything for the time being because he had not eaten anything yet.
Finally, it was time to cultivate his sense of smell, which was the sense of touch of the whole body.
Among the five senses, cultivating one's sense of smell was the most difficult because it covered the largest area.
Chen Zong's mental power spread out, starting from his head and covering his whole body inch by inch. This was difficult in itself. If one's mental power was not enough, it would be impossible to complete this step.
Fortunately, Chen Zong's mental power was very strong, far surpassing that of cultivators of the same level. Even when compared to many pseudo-Transcendents, it was not weak at all.
Under his control, the invisible mental power covered every part of his body, as if he was wearing invisible clothes.
Soon after, according to the body consciousness cultivation method of the five senses, the mental power that covered his entire body rippled like water waves and slowly flowed through his body. As it flowed, every inch of his mental power spun like a vortex, causing Chen Zong to feel as if his skin was being torn apart and penetrating deep into his bones.
Resisting this feeling, Chen Zong constantly drove his mental power to temper his body. This was different from Body Tempering.
After two hours, the cultivation of his sense of smell had reached its limit.
Withdrawing his mental power, Chen Zong could feel the fluctuations around him. He did not sense it with his eyes or ears, nor did he sense it with his superb swordsmanship. Instead, he sensed it with his body. He felt as if all the pores on his body had opened up, and every soft hair on his skin gently swayed. When he came into contact with the air, he could feel the fluctuations in the air.
The effect was so obvious on his first cultivation, which made Chen Zong more and more satisfied with this Mind Tempering Method.
However, the cultivation time did not stop. In total, it was ten hours, which was half a day.
Walking out of the inn, Chen Zong walked into a nearby restaurant, ordered a few dishes and a pot of wine, and tasted them leisurely.
When the food entered his mouth, his taste buds seemed to explode, and the unique taste spread in his mouth, penetrating his entire tongue.
The improvement of his taste buds indeed made Chen Zong feel more subtle when he ate. No matter whether it was sour, sweet, bitter, or spicy, he experienced it more deeply.
While Chen Zong was enjoying himself leisurely, those who were monitoring him were secretly hating him.
For the time being, Chen Zong did not plan to leave Ascending Heaven City. He would first cultivate the Mind Tempering Method and improve himself as much as possible. When he could no longer improve, he would then leave Ascending Heaven City.
At that time, he did not know how much his combat strength would improve.
During his cultivation, the Yin-Yang Mysterious Sword would sometimes meet up with Chen Zong and talk about the way of the sword. If this was known by others, they would be very shocked.
Two Transcendents talking about the way of the sword with a True Martial Realm cultivator was simply unbelievable.
However, Chen Zong's swordsmanship was so high, especially after comprehending Half-step Sword Force in the Ascending Heaven Tower. It had to be known that the Yin-Yang Mysterious Sword couple had not yet comprehended Half-step Sword Force, not even Half-step Sword Force.
Chen Zong did not tell them that he had comprehended Half-step Sword Force. Otherwise, who knew how shocked they would be.
"By the way, Chen Zong, when do you plan to challenge the Ascending Heaven Tower again?" Yang Xuanjian asked.
"I've already challenged it." Chen Zong thought for a moment and said.
"You've already challenged it?" The Yin-Yang Mysterious Sword couple was stunned.
"Yes, my combat strength has been raised to the limit. It's too difficult to continue to improve, so I can only challenge it." Chen Zong explained simply.
"Have you challenged it?" Yang Xuanjian asked, even more anxious than Chen Zong.
"The last opponent on the tenth floor was an incarnation left behind by Li Tian Di." Chen Zong said unhurriedly, "That incarnation was too strong. I was no match for it."
"Then you haven't challenged it." The Yin-Yang Mysterious Sword couldn't help but feel disappointed. It was said that those who passed the tenth floor and entered the eleventh floor had a chance to obtain Li Tian Di's inheritance.
"I couldn't defeat Li Tian Di's incarnation, but I gained his recognition and obtained a Secret Art." Chen Zong said.
Chen Zong still didn't know what happened in the Ascending Heaven Tower. For example, what was the use of the Ascending Heaven Tower's phantom image? Moreover, entering the eleventh floor was too shocking. If news of this spread, it would be even more unfavorable for him.
Therefore, Chen Zong kept a part of it.
"I really don't know who can pass the tenth floor and enter the eleventh floor." Yang Xuanjian couldn't help but sigh, but he didn't ask what Secret Art Chen Zong obtained, because Secret Arts of the True Martial Realm were useless to Transcendents.
The Transcendents and True Martial Realm were two completely different levels, and their Secret Arts were even more different.
"Chen Zong, you should have noticed that many people are watching you, waiting for the day you leave Ascending Heaven City. What are your plans?" Yang Xuanjian changed the topic and frowned slightly.
"I will stay in Ascending Heaven City for a while and cultivate my Secret Art. I will leave when I can no longer improve." Chen Zong said.
The Yin-Yang Mysterious Sword knew that Chen Zong couldn't stay in Ascending Heaven City for the rest of his life. Although it was relatively safe to stay here, he would lose his will to improve after a long time.
However, if he left the city, he would most likely be killed.
He couldn't advance or retreat.
