Chapter 369: Creation

At this moment, if anyone could see through and perceive true qi and source force, they would find streams of red and blue energy continuously flowing from Li Mochen's fingertips into Angela's body.

Keena Edric obviously lacked this ability, so her eyes were already blazing with murderous intent as she fixed a cold, lethal glare on Li Mochen.

She thought that if looks could kill, she would have torn this guy to pieces.

And if Mr. Mitchell hadn't instructed them not to interfere in the matters between these two, she would have already drawn her sword and struck.

Keena also thought that if she had known this would happen, she should have firmly refused days ago, not hesitated and agreed just because Li Mochen promised she could watch. Now, knowing full well that this guy was taking advantage of the young lady, she couldn't stop him and didn't dare to.

Just as Keena felt she could no longer endure, Li Mochen finally stopped. He exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, took a step back, and then flames erupted all over his body, burning away all the evaporating sweat.

Li Mochen was not unaware of the murderous gaze fixed on him from behind, but he also felt quite wronged.

For someone whose desires had been magnified tenfold or even a hundredfold, being able to restrain his urges and avoid any mishaps during this process was truly difficult and challenging, okay?

Especially since the girl in his arms was not only a rare beauty in the world but also someone he and his original self deeply admired—that made it even harder.

At this moment, Angela also opened her eyes, waking slowly from her meditation.

The girl first glanced at the opposite side with a flushed face, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated. She felt that many of Li Mochen's movements while guiding her qi were unnecessary and completely avoidable.

But when Angela's peripheral vision caught Keena beside her, hand on her sword, with faint veins bulging on her fair hand, she ultimately swallowed the words that had reached her lips.

Angela thought it best not to speak now, or a murder might occur. So she turned her attention back to her own soul, sensing and experiencing the changes within herself.

"Is this what you call Heavenly Mind Divine Illumination?"

At this moment, Angela's gaze was clear and distant. She looked ahead, and a sapling appeared under her gaze, then grew vigorously.

Next, the sapling turned into flames, and from the fire, a firebird shaped like an Eastern phoenix flew out. It flapped its wings, flying around the room, scattering sparks.

Gradually, a look of delighted surprise appeared on Angela's face: "This secret art is truly miraculous. Not only is materializing illusions much easier than before, but I also feel my soul power has been greatly purified."

"If you can practice for half an hour every day from now on, Angie, your soul purity will increase rapidly during this time. Within at most half a year, you can match a Legend—this is your special talent."

Li Mochen's expression was somewhat strange: "Why didn't you do as I said? You should have been able to manage it."

"Do as you said? Imagine myself as the Heavenly Dao, then heavenly mind is my mind, my will is heaven's will; divine will unites with heaven, viewing the world with heavenly mind?"

Angela thought, no way! If she really did that, then in the heavenly mind state, there would be no place for Li Mochen or her father in her heart.

"Maybe, but I feel it's unnecessary. The core value of this secret art should be its self-hypnosis method, right? The key is that it can combine with all the magic power and source force in the body, achieving a 'self-hypnosis' that is flawless and almost impossible to shake by external forces. If I wanted, I could imagine myself as a tree, or a little dog, or a kitten. I really wonder who created this; it far surpasses any mental secret art I know. It should originate from the East? I have to say, the ancient Eastern cultivators possessed incredible talent. If they weren't bad at summarizing and fond of internal strife, who knows what this world would have become."

Li Mochen couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, thinking that this girl was indeed exceptionally clever. The greatest value of 'Heavenly Mind Divine Illumination' was indeed that set of self-hypnosis methods.

This was a mental secret art created by a great cultivator from the Primordial Vault Realm who had once ascended to immortality, drawing on the Buddhist 'Great Vow Technique'.

Of course, that was in the distant past, when the Primordial Vault Realm was still rich in spiritual energy. After that, 'Heavenly Mind Divine Illumination' had undergone dozens of generations of improvement.

"But 'Heavenly Mind' is the best option. It can purify your soul power to the greatest extent and increase it to the maximum."

"But I feel my way is also good. In the heavenly mind state, I would think of myself as the future creator of the world. The potential is huge, and besides—"

Angela said, looking at Li Mochen with a strange smile: "A Mo, you should have cultivated 'Heavenly Mind,' right? It seems you've already gone astray?"

She had already understood why Li Mochen's behavior had been so strange during their first two meetings. This made her struggle, wanting to save Li Mochen's face on one hand, but unable to suppress her laughter on the other.

Li Mochen, as if struck a heavy blow, turned pale and then decisively ended the topic: "Forget it, it's your choice. But Angie, you must understand that 'Heavenly Mind Divine Illumination' has five levels in its future. If you follow your own method, you'll have to explore the path after the third level yourself."

Then Li Mochen placed a red gift box in front of Angela: "Open it and see. This is a gift for you. I completed the design and 70% of the craftsmanship myself. I remember the day after tomorrow is your birthday, right?"

He had spent nearly half of his time in the past ten-plus days on this artifact.

"A gift?"

Angela's face was full of surprise. She thought, A Mo, this fool, actually prepared a gift for her? This was truly a miracle.

She almost eagerly opened the gift box and saw a somewhat extravagant necklace lying quietly inside.

The pendant was a large purple gemstone, and the chain was made of gilded dragon scales and dragon teeth.

"So beautiful!"

Angela took the necklace in her hand with delighted surprise, admiring it closely. But then her mind stirred, sensing the power hidden within the pendant.

Keena, watching, curled her lips disdainfully. She admitted the necklace had some aesthetic appeal, but for someone of the young lady's status, the colors of gold and purple were too flashy.

But then again, for the young lady, as long as it was a gift from someone she liked, no matter how ugly the design, she would treasure it as a priceless gem.
