Chu Feng had now seen through everything about this place.
But the process had not been simple.
After
But the Heavenly Eyes had not helped him see through everything here.
They had not been able to offer him the slightest assistance.
Even his most proficient Spirit Formation techniques had proven equally useless.
His cultivation, his Spirit Formation arts — everything seemed to have been rendered ineffective in this place.
Later, Chu Feng discovered that the layer of luminous light enveloping his body actually served a guiding function.
So he began attempting to communicate with that luminous light…
And once Chu Feng succeeded, he was able to see through everything about this place.
He also understood why Xianhai Shaoyu, despite being protected by that guardian force, had deliberately dispersed it and used his bare body to endure the attacks of that terrifying power.
He had been challenging the power of this place.
…
Upon entering this place, anyone whose talent was sufficiently strong could obtain a luminous aura like the one now enveloping Chu Feng.
This layer of guardian force would keep them safe.
It could be said that this was the place's recognition of them — a recognition of their talent.
Only those whose talent had reached a certain threshold would receive such recognition.
He and Xianhai Shaoyu were both individuals who had earned it.
As long as one had earned this recognition and possessed this layer of guardian force, they could traverse this area in complete safety.
No matter how terrifying the power hovering overhead might be, and no matter how relentlessly it attacked them, it would not be able to harm a single hair on their bodies.
More importantly, so long as they communicated with this guardian force, they could gain a thorough understanding of everything here — and even take control of that guardian force themselves.
By voluntarily dispersing the guardian force, one could use their physical body to endure the attacks of that terrifying power directly.
But if that were all there was to it, it would not have made Chu Feng so excited and exhilarated.
The reason Chu Feng was so thrilled was that by enduring the power's attacks, one was essentially issuing a challenge to the force of this place.
And with that challenge came certain rewards.
Those rewards were the true reason behind Chu Feng's excitement.
It was a power capable of strengthening one's soul while simultaneously bolstering one's bloodline force.
The power of this place could not increase their cultivation level.
But it could elevate them at their very foundation.
Simply put, once one's bloodline force was strengthened, one's innate talent would become even greater.
This was precisely what cultivators needed most.
After all, for a martial cultivator, hard work alone was not enough.
Innate talent was the key factor that determined how high one's cultivation could reach.
Enhancing one's talent was something countless cultivators dreamed of.
And this place could help them achieve that dream.
Of course, the greater the intensity of the challenge one accepted, the greater the rewards earned.
How far one's bloodline force could be strengthened therefore depended entirely on how far one was willing to push the challenge.
"Brother Chu Feng, join me."
"I'll admit, I would love to have this place's power all to myself."
"But I know my own limitations — with my strength alone, I could never claim it all."
"So join me. Let us divide this place's power between us."
At that moment, Xianhai Shaoyu's voice rang out once more.
When Chu Feng looked over at Xianhai Shaoyu, Xianhai Shaoyu was already looking back at him.
He had likely already read the truth in Chu Feng's expression — that Chu Feng had seen through everything about this place.
