Master, What Dao Do You Cultivate?

Chapter 61: Your Body

Relying on his past experience and professionalism in taking on tasks, Ji Qinglin quickly gained Huang Silang's trust. 

Although it was unlikely that the opponent would reveal their identity at this point, they did believe that Huang Silang was genuinely preparing to take the job and transferred the 800 yuan deposit directly. 

Yu Ye furrowed her brows slightly and worriedly asked: 

"Master, is this really okay?" 

Looking at the deposit coming through, Ji Qinglin’s smile grew wider: 

"Getting a deposit for free while ensuring these people won’t try to assassinate me in the next few days is the most profitable deal I can make." 

"Does that mean you're not going to trap them into revealing themselves?" 

Ji Qinglin thought for a moment: 

"Someone willing to pay this price won’t be a newbie. If we make them show themselves too soon, it will definitely fail and raise their suspicions. Instead, I’ll pretend to be injured for the next few days and make them think that Huang Silang can be trusted. Once they believe that, we’ll draw them out. As for you, you don’t need to worry about it, but if you’re going out in the next couple of days, you should come with me." 

"Yes!"  "By the way, how’s your soul refinement progressing at home? You haven’t been slacking off, have you?" 

Yu Ye proudly replied: 

"I’ve already mastered the police soul refinement simulator. But I still can’t use that precious technique, so I contacted Zhang Huai Min and ordered several soul refinement methods from him." 

The Immortal's bones aren’t working? Did I miscalculate? 

"Good, go upstairs for now. I’ll think of other ways for you." 

Yu Ye went upstairs, and as Ji Qinglin was closing the door, he noticed that the Night Owl’s key hadn’t been taken out. He looked up for a moment but ultimately didn’t ask about it. 

Soon, Ji Qinglin entered the living room holding a data cable about the thickness of a finger, with a block the size of an egg in the middle. Holding it felt like a small black whip. When Yu Ye, who was about to use soul refinement, saw this, her apricot eyes froze: 

"Master, what are you planning to do with this?" 

Mad Ye: Gradually exposing the obsession, huh! Could this be what Zhang Huai Min meant when he said I’d need to suffer a bit? 

Ji Qinglin, however, explained calmly: 

"I might have misjudged. That piece of Immortal’s bone might not directly help a Qi Refiner ascend to the next level of their field, but rather just assist with breakthroughs in physical strength. 

And Yu Ye, since your physical strength isn’t at the level of having an inner landscape, in order to help you utilize the Immortal’s bone, I’ll need to guide you step by step with what I’ve learned." 

Yu Ye only understood part of this and tilted her head: 

"I understand what you mean, Master, but... what’s this whip... I mean, this cable?" 

Ji Qinglin smiled: 

"It’s nothing. It’s just a neural sensing connection cable. I need to use it to get a better feel for your body." 

"Use my body... to get a feel?" 

Mad Ye: Alright, I’m getting excited now! 

Seeing that his explanation wasn’t getting through, Ji Qinglin inserted one end of the cable into the neural interface on his chest. 

This neural interface simply connects the body’s nerves to corresponding electronic signal ports at specific locations, allowing the body to use other neural devices or external body attachments. 

After inserting it, Ji Qinglin explained: 

"This neural sensing connection cable allows the dominant party to receive the physical signals from the subordinate party, which means experiencing their sensations as if they were their own. Originally used by doctors to diagnose, this cable has a one-way signal added, allowing the dominant party to also control the subordinate’s body. 

The insight I gained from the Immortal’s bones can’t be fully explained in words. To teach you, the only way is to connect our bodies through this cable, and then I’ll control your body slowly to help you feel it." 

Yu Ye was a bit curious. If that’s the case, why not just enter the virtual space directly? But since this method only connects the nerves and doesn’t involve the consciousness space, it’s actually good that Master won’t be aware of the other self’s presence. 

Realizing her Master’s good intentions to teach her the mysteries of the Immortal’s body, Yu Ye originally wanted to decline: 

"Master, I might not have the talent to... " 

But before Yu Ye could finish, Ji Qinglin raised his hand: 

"Are you going to cooperate willingly, or should I knock you out and search for a neural interface on your body?" 

Hearing this, Yu Ye had no choice but to obediently tie her hair up, turn around with her back to Ji Qinglin, and expose the neural interface on the back of her white neck: 

"Then, Master, please." 

Ji Qinglin inserted the neural interface and reminded her: 

"Once I turn on the switch, we’ll both feel your body and have control over it. So during this process, try to relax and don’t make any movements. I will guide your body to find the correct feeling, and you just need to remember that sensation." 

"Understood, Master." 

Click— 

Ji Qinglin turned on the switch on the neural connection cable, and immediately, Yu Ye’s body trembled. 

Before, he could only feel his own body, but now, it felt as though two bodies were connected, and it was like the half of his body that had been completely numb was gradually coming back to life. 

Ji Qinglin controlled Yu Ye’s body to move left and right to check for any issues with the connection. 

"Master!" 

"Hm?" 

"Is this all part of the process of finding the feeling?" 

"Oh, sorry, I got a bit distracted. We’re starting now." 

Mad Ye: Just a little bit of sensation, and you... 

Yu Ye: Shut up! 

Ji Qinglin manipulated Yu Ye’s body to move slowly in the living room, following the movements he had practiced in his Qi Sea Cloud Storage’s inner landscape, like performing Tai Chi. 

But strangely, even though he made nearly identical movements to before, Yu Ye’s body still didn’t feel any change. 

Does it really need to be experienced in the inner landscape? 

Anyway, since this neural connection cable is one-way, Yu Ye couldn’t sense her own changes. Ji Qinglin risked it and opened the Qi Sea Cloud Storage, entering his inner landscape once again while staying connected. 

Standing amidst the data waves, Ji Qinglin controlled his inner self to repeat the method he had learned from the Immortal’s bones, while outside, both Ji Qinglin and Yu Ye’s bodies slowly sat down. 

At the same time, Yu Ye felt the Qi within her A-rank meridians begin to surge, as if searching for a breakthrough point within her body. 

Ji Qinglin also felt it and knew that he had found the right method, so he continued gathering the surrounding data waves.
