Chapter 115 Divine Consciousness

"What's so good about teaching Fireball..."

Mo Hua, who spent four or five days practicing Fireball a hundred times, was stunned.

He thought he had learned almost everything, but what Kui Lao said was equivalent to telling him that he had not learned anything yet...

"Grandpa Kui, what other spells are you going to teach me?"

Mo Hua was a little looking forward to it.

"No need to teach spells, Fireball is enough." Kui Lao said.

Mo Hua was completely confused, "Then what are you going to teach me?"

Kui Lao did not answer, but asked:

"What is the first point of using spells?"

"Learn spells first?" Mo Hua tried.

"This is the foundation, not the point. The first point is that you have to hit the enemy. No matter how powerful the spell is, if you can't hit the enemy, it is useless, and it's useless to learn it." Kui Lao said.

Mo Hua suddenly realized, but felt that this was a bit nonsense.

"If you want to hit someone with a spell, what does it rely on?" Kui Lao said again.

"Spiritual consciousness." Mo Hua replied.

"Why?"

Mo Hua thought for a moment and said:

"The luck of magic depends on spiritual consciousness, casting depends on spiritual consciousness, and the trajectory of the magic after casting is also controlled by spiritual consciousness, so if the magic wants to hit someone, it also depends on spiritual consciousness."

Kui Lao nodded, "The world in spiritual consciousness is different from the world seen by the naked eye, you know this, right?"

Mo Hua nodded.

The world seen by the naked eye has clear outlines and colorful and delicate colors.

When the cultivator's spiritual consciousness is released, what is perceived is a piece of virtual white, and the things in the virtual white will eliminate the specific outlines, leaving only the state of spiritual power.

In other words, the world in the cultivator's spiritual consciousness is like a colorful spiritual power graffiti on a white paper.

What the spiritual consciousness sees is not the specific appearance of things, but the more essential spiritual power state of things.

Old Puppet continued, "Magic requires spiritual awareness to guide it. If you want to hit the target, you need to 'see' it with spiritual awareness first."

"Then Grandpa Puppet, can't you see it with your eyes?" Mo Hua asked.

"Eyes are too easy to be deceived. It's stupid for a cultivator to only see with his eyes."

Mo Hua nodded.

Old Puppet picked up a bamboo leaf with his hand, and a narrow green bamboo leaf fell between his fingers.

"You use the fireball technique to hit this bamboo leaf from three meters away."

Mo Hua was worried that the fireball technique would hurt Old Puppet, but after estimating the difference in their cultivation, he was very tactful and didn't say it out loud.

His fireball technique was probably not enough to warm Old Puppet's hands...

Mo Hua retreated three meters away and released his spiritual awareness. The world in his spiritual awareness was a blank white, and the bamboo leaf floated in the air, showing a faint green spiritual power afterimage.

But in this blank white world, there was no trace of Old Puppet.

Mo Hua knew that this was because the difference in spiritual awareness between the two sides was too big.

Those with weak spiritual consciousness cannot spy on cultivators with strong spiritual consciousness.

"Grandpa Kui, I'm here."

After saying this, Mo Hua activated the Fireball Technique and flew towards the spiritual power afterimage of the bamboo leaf in his spiritual consciousness.

The Fireball Technique hit the bamboo leaf, burning the emerald green bamboo leaf into ashes, but the old Kui holding the bamboo leaf was unharmed.

The old Kui flipped his fingers and picked up another bamboo leaf.

This time he released two fingers, and the bamboo leaf between his fingers slowly floated up and danced in the air with the wind.

"Use the Fireball Technique to hit this one again."

Mo Hua was in a dilemma, but he still held his breath and concentrated, using his spiritual consciousness to track the trajectory of the bamboo leaf, and then cast the Fireball Technique.

The Fireball Technique flew into the air and passed by the bamboo leaf without hitting it.

"Do you know why it didn't hit?"

Mo Hua scratched his head, "The bamboo leaves flew too fast?"

Kui Lao waved his hand casually, and a gust of wind was raised in a small space, which carried several bamboo leaves and flew rapidly in the air.

Kui Lao flicked his finger lightly, and a spark flew out of his fingertips, and then flew upwards, chasing the bamboo leaves in the air.

No matter how the bamboo leaves flew, they were eventually caught up by the sparks, pierced through one by one, and turned into ashes.

Mo Hua was stunned.

"This is the first point I taught you," Kui Lao looked at Mo Hua and said slowly:

"Spiritual consciousness locking."

"Spiritual consciousness locking..."

Mo Hua murmured, although he didn't know what it was, but he was shocked inexplicably.

"The so-called spiritual consciousness locking is to lock the enemy with spiritual consciousness, so that no matter how he dodges, he can't escape the tracking of the spell in the end." Kui Lao said.

"Then if the spiritual consciousness is locked, will it definitely hit?" Mo Hua asked.

"Unless the opponent's body movement is too fast, faster than your spells, or he uses other spells or spiritual tools to resist, otherwise he can't escape."

"Oh oh." Mo Hua was a little excited, and asked, "Then how can I lock it with my spiritual sense?"

"Release your spiritual sense, see through the opponent's spiritual power, and attach your spiritual sense to it, so that you can lock its position."

Kui Lao said it concisely, and then said:

"It sounds complicated, you will understand it after you do it a few times."

After saying this, Kui Lao picked up another bamboo leaf with his fingers, "Try to lock it."

Mo Hua nodded, and followed what Kui Lao said, releasing his spiritual consciousness, using it to see through the spiritual power of the bamboo leaves, and then naturally he had a feeling of "insight and locking".

Just like drawing a formation, once you understand the formation pattern, the entire formation will be like imprinted in your mind.

Mo Hua locked the bamboo leaves with his spiritual consciousness.

Kui Lao looked at Mo Hua, his eyes fixed.

Did he learn so fast...

"Is it because the spiritual consciousness is too strong?" Kui Lao said silently in his heart.

After a moment of silence, Kui Lao loosened his fingers, and the bamboo leaves flew into the air.

Mo Hua closed his eyes, put his fingers together, and a light red fireball condensed between his fingers. It flew into the air with his thoughts, drew an arc, and hit the flying bamboo leaves, burning them to ashes.

Mo Hua opened his eyes and smiled happily.

Kui Lao nodded, "You have learned well."

"Grandpa Kui, you taught well!"

Kui Lao did not comment.

Mo Hua thought for a moment, and then asked, "What should I do if I can't lock onto the opponent with my spiritual sense?"

"The best way," said Kui Lao, looking at Mo Hua, "is to run."

Mo Hua was stunned, and then understood.

If you can't lock onto the opponent with your spiritual sense, it means that the opponent's spiritual sense is much stronger than yours, and naturally his cultivation is also much better than yours. If you don't run, you're waiting to die, and if you take action, it's the same as seeking death.

"If you really can't run, or can't run away, you can only rely on your eyes or your feelings." Kui Lao said.

Just leave it to fate...

Mo Hua thought silently.

"Then how can I not be locked onto by the opponent's spiritual sense?" Mo Hua asked again.

"If your spiritual sense is stronger than your opponent's, it will be difficult for him to lock onto you. If your spiritual sense is much stronger than your opponent's, he will not be able to lock onto you."

Mo Hua thought for a moment, and then understood.

The stronger your spiritual sense is, the harder it is for the opponent's spiritual sense to sense you, and naturally the harder it is for him to lock onto you.

If your spiritual sense is so strong that the opponent can't sense it, the opponent will naturally be unable to lock onto you.

"There are also techniques for using spiritual consciousness in fighting, but I can't teach you this. You will slowly understand it yourself when you fight with cultivators in the future." said Kui Lao.

"Can't you teach me anything?" asked Mo Hua.

Kui Lao explained: "Spiritual consciousness is different from spiritual power. Spiritual power has traces, but spiritual consciousness is illusory. Cultivators can use meridians and acupoints to locate spiritual power, but they can't use anything to define spiritual consciousness."

"Therefore, the use of spiritual consciousness can only rely on your own experience and understanding. You won't understand it even if I tell you, and even if you understand it, you may not be able to use it..."

Mo Hua nodded and carefully wrote down what Kui Lao said.

Although I don't understand it now, I will definitely be able to use it in the future.

Kui Lao continued: "However, you don't have to care too much. Generally speaking, the difference in spiritual consciousness between cultivators of the same realm is not so great that the opponent can't lock it completely..."

Kui Lao stopped talking here, glanced at Mo Hua, and his eyes froze slightly.

Generally speaking, it's like this...
