The crackling explosions around Zuo Mo grew denser and denser, visible to the naked eye as the air burst apart again and again, producing small whirlwinds.

  Wuling Sanren was skilled in the use of talismans, and his spiritual awareness was naturally not weak. However, he discovered that once his spiritual awareness reached a distance of one zhang from Zuo Mo's left side, it seemed to hit an invisible wall, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break through. He let out a low exclamation, somewhat surprised. As a Golden Dan practitioner, Zuo Mo was only in the Foundation Establishment stage, and his spiritual awareness should have been far from being able to withstand Wuling Sanren's. But the current situation was that he was being blocked, a situation that usually occurred when the two parties' spiritual awareness strengths were not greatly different.

  But he was only slightly surprised and then returned to normal, guessing that Zuo Mo's divine consciousness should be undergoing some changes, the dense explosions around Zuo Mo also made him more confident in his judgment.

  Compared to spiritual energy, cultivators' understanding of divine consciousness is much shallower. Even a Golden Core cultivator like the Five Tombs Drifter wouldn't dare say they have a deep understanding of divine consciousness. In the market, there are countless jade slips for cultivating spiritual energy, but those for cultivating divine consciousness are extremely rare and not highly valued, making it a niche within a niche.

  Among all cultivators, those who are good at spiritual consciousness are mostly Symbol Cultivators. However, even among Symbol Cultivators, they still insist on taking spiritual energy as the main focus. Just like Zen Cultivators, who claim to be best at cultivating their bodies, in reality, they also take cultivating spiritual energy as the main focus.

  Wuling Sanren was good at Fu Zhen, but he wasn't a Fu Xiu, he was a Jian Xiu.

  In this remote and isolated Tianyue realm where sword cultivators run amok, how could one possibly find a good cultivation method for refining their spiritual consciousness?

  Wuling Sanren himself practiced the spiritual awareness method, a branch of the sect's heart method. He was interested in talisman arrays and cultivated them for a while. However, this was just a sideline; as a sword cultivator, he could only have one main profession - cultivating the sword!

  What changes had taken place in Zuo Mo's consciousness, Wuling Sanren was also unclear.

  Wei Fei, startled by the sudden movement of the Five Ling Scattered People, only glanced at Zuo Mo before withdrawing his gaze. As a fellow Golden Dan stage cultivator, he could naturally see that Zuo Mo's divine sense had undergone a change. However, in his opinion, an unorthodox divine sense was still not the proper path; even if it was cultivated to great heights, what use would it be?

  The man from Wuling thought for a moment, but came up with nothing, and then shifted his gaze back to Wei Sheng and Gu Yongping.

  Zuo Mo felt that his spiritual awareness was changing quietly as the starlight seeped in, but what kind of change would it be? Watching the stars continuously spray out starlight, the starlight spreading bit by bit in his spiritual awareness, he had a feeling that this change would last for a period of time.

  The speed of starlight diffusion is very slow, and if it diffuses to all areas where gods are present, it will take a considerable amount of time.

  His gaze returned from the spiritual realm, and he began to think about the Pú Yāo and what it said about "divided spirits". The spiritual realm in front of him was so clear that it seemed within reach. This was the first time his spiritual realm had been presented to him in such a direct way. He didn't know if this was an illusion or just his own imagination. He found it hard to distinguish, and he didn't think about it anymore.

  It's precisely because the divine is within reach that he naturally thinks of "divided attention".

  Pu Yao didn't tell him how to separate the divine sense. Left Mu looked around, and everywhere was the divine sense, like a vast gray gas. The Sea of Consciousness was wrapped in the center of the divine sense, while the stars floated on its outer wall. It was so huge and intangible that Left Mu felt at a loss for what to do.

  He tried to use his usual method of urging his divine consciousness to communicate with the divine consciousness around him.

  As soon as he had this thought, the gray divine sense beside him surged towards him. Before long, his hand had gained a ball of divine sense. Zuo Mo couldn't help but feel joy - was it really that easy?

  Before he could get excited for long, the ball of divine consciousness in his hand dissipated into nothingness. As expected, it wouldn't be that simple, and he didn't feel discouraged. This outcome didn't surprise him; when he first heard the words "divine split", he felt it wouldn't be so easy.

  Afterwards, he continued to make various attempts and summed up many experiences.

  He can indeed control these divine senses, and it's also very easy to control. However, the divine senses are like sand, they can be easily pinched into a ball in one's hand, but once you let go of your hand, they will scatter into a pile. As long as Luo Mo's heart is interrupted, these divine senses will return to their original state.

  Zuo Mo felt that something was off. In his understanding, the separated divine sense should have a certain degree of autonomy. Otherwise, what's the difference between that and turning his divine sense into multiple strands while controlling them all at once? The divine sense is formless and intangible, so it can also be molded into any shape.

  When using the "Great Li Huo Fu Zhen" against Zong Mingyan, Zuǒ Mò had used a similar technique. At that time, he needed to control the "Bǎo Lóng Zhèn", "Lí Huǒ Fú Zhèn", "Sān Zhuǎn Huǒ Zhèn" and "Dà Lí Huǒ Fú Zhèn" at the same time. Controlling four arrays simultaneously, Zuǒ Mò's divine sense technique had already reached a very subtle level.

  At that time, his divine consciousness was like a giant octopus with four tentacles, simultaneously controlling four symbol arrays.

  Strictly speaking, this is not truly simultaneous because the four arrays have a before and after relationship, it belongs more to coordination. It's just that the time difference between these four is extremely small, making it look like they're happening at the same time.

  Simultaneously controlling four symbol arrays is Lemo's limit. It's not a matter of dividing one's mind, but rather coordinating four steps as one.

  "Divided attention" is truly a strict sense of one mind with multiple uses, it can do several things at the same time. If so, in addition to consciousness, what should be separated is also thoughts!

  Don't get caught up in painful thinking. Although the mind is formless and intangible, it's like spirit power that can be separated. What are thoughts? They're a person's ideas - how can ideas be divided?

  This is absolutely impossible!

  Zuo Mo couldn't understand why his own thinking was definitely wrong.

  He suddenly thought of the demon core in his body. As soon as this idea emerged from his mind, the scene around him changed again!

  The spiritual sea was quickly pulled closer, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared within it. The Pú Yāo was not far away, Zuǒ Mò saw that the Pú Yāo suddenly opened its eyes, looking around, but a puzzled expression immediately appeared on its face.

  Zuo Mo didn't even have time to call out to Pu Yao before his body passed through the sea of flames and was pulled into the depths of the spiritual realm.

  Then he saw the demon core!

  It wasn't until now that he realized the demon core was actually hidden in his sea of consciousness, and it was at the very center of it.

  Zuo Mo suddenly had some admiration for Pu Yao, being able to plant something in the deepest part of his consciousness, Pu Yao's methods were still quite formidable.

  He had always thought that the Sea of Consciousness was like a small island, but now he discovered that it was actually a sphere. The places he usually went to were on the surface of the sphere. The interior of the sphere was hollow, and the nucleus of the demon was at its center. The demon's nucleus was about the size of a walnut, resembling a gallbladder, with many fine tubes surrounding it, similar to meridian vines, which couldn't be named. These fine tubes connected the demon's nucleus and the outer shell of the Sea of Consciousness.

  The demon core was implanted later, so these meridian vines' fine tubes should also be later. After implanting the demon core, his ability to control divine consciousness surged, and Mo guessed that it was probably these things at work.

  He was mesmerized by the long, wisteria-like tendrils of the You nucleus.

  He suddenly had an epiphany, if he were to replicate the structure of the demon core's sea of consciousness, wouldn't it be possible to stabilize his divine sense and prevent it from being like scattered sand that couldn't be grasped no matter how hard he tried.

  The more he pondered, the more reasonable it seemed. Upon careful consideration, the intangible and formless divine sense had not drifted away or dissipated precisely because of the existence of the Sea of Consciousness. The demon core, however, allowed him to control his divine sense even more effortlessly.

  Just as Zuo Mo saw a glimmer of hope, he was faced with another problem.

  What serves as the sea of recognition and what serves as the core of the monster?

  He didn't have the means to get something from outside, it was obviously impossible. This thing that could serve as a nucleus had to be here originally. Looking at the demon core in front of him, he couldn't help but think that if this demon core really produced offspring like vines, it would be great, and he wouldn't be left with nothing to use.

  This absurd idea just flashed through his mind and was gone in an instant.

  He thought his thinking should be fine, but he needed to find a solution. He started wandering around in the sea of consciousness, looking for something that could serve as the nucleus. It was strange to say, he could clearly see Pu Yao, but the two seemed to be in two different worlds. No matter how he shouted at Pu Yao, even when he floated right in front of him, Pu Yao didn't have any reaction.

  After trying a few times, he gave up this futile action and began to look for something that could serve as the kernel.

  However, he wandered through the sea of knowledge but found nothing.

  Was it really a problem with his own thinking? He subconsciously floated back into the divine sense, feeling the familiar sensation transmitted by the divine sense, and furrowed his brow in deep thought.

  At this moment, a point of starlight as silver sand slowly floated across his eyes.

  His gaze suddenly stopped.

  That starlight was surrounded by a thin layer of divine consciousness, as if it had an additional thin gray mist!

  A look of wild joy suddenly appeared in Zuo Mo's eyes!

  Stardust! Ah, how could I have forgotten about stardust?

  He carefully reached out to grab that speck of starlight, and the starlight entered his palm without any weight. However, at this moment, his feeling became even clearer. The starlight was indeed surrounded by a thin layer of divine sense, which was slightly thicker than the divine sense in other places.

  Ah! That's it!

  Zuo Mo decided to name them Star Sand because when he picked one up close, he discovered that they weren't a cluster of light, but rather had substance, just like sand.

  Zuo Mo discovered the wonderful use of star sand and began to crouch beside the four stars to collect it.

  The four stars sprinkled stardust at a speed that wasn't fast, and it took a very long time for Zuo Mo to receive an extremely small handful.

  He decided to try out these star sands in his hand first.

  Stardust is as loose as sand, if you want to make them into a core, you need to smelt them into one.

  Refining was not unfamiliar to Zuomo, and he could now be considered a semi-expert in controlling fire. However, what made him feel depressed soon after was that he couldn't summon the flame of Zhongchun. Without flames, wanting to refine them into one body wasn't just a pipe dream?

  Fire...

  His gaze fell on the sea of flames, where a vast expanse of fire raged! Perhaps he could utilize those deep red flames, Luo Mo thought uncertainly.

  But at this time he also had no other better way, only one try.

  However, what he didn't expect was that as soon as his mind stirred, a wisp of flame broke away from the sea of fire and flew right in front of him!

  This went smoothly enough to stun Zuo Mo. The flames of the Sea of Consciousness, he had never been able to control before.

  But after thinking for half a day, he still couldn't figure out why. Anyway, whether it works or not, trying is the only way to know.

  He didn't make a move, nor did he rest, and then controlled this strand of deep red flames, starting to refine the star sand in his hand.

  Surrounded by a deep red flame with a hint of blackness, wrapped in star sand, like a twisting snake waist singer, dancing wildly and strangely!
