Chapter 678: Body Cultivation Time Sense Expert, So Terrifying!

After leaving the examination center, my figure appeared within the Witch Academy.

This journey felt like many things had happened, and yet also as if not much had been experienced, but the only thing that could be confirmed was the authenticity of my gains.

However, along with the gains came more questions, such as those concerning the Domain.

I also realized one thing on this trip: don't endure unnecessary hardship if there's no need.

But sometimes, I also didn't want to blindly develop dependency, thereby making my self-exploration slacken.

Hence, the current state was the most suitable.

Going to ask whether my answer was correct with my own answer was more acceptable to my heart than just asking for the answer without knowing anything.

However, after I returned to the Witch Academy, the first witch I encountered... no, the one who actively sought me out, was actually Trixie Destiny, the Destiny Alchemist who had found me before.

“Hi Little Han, it's been a while. I heard you proactively found something to do for yourself this time?”

“Yes, indeed.”

I nodded, not surprised by the witch who suddenly appeared before me.

I guessed that she came to find me so quickly because she thought what she wanted was about to be completed?

“Then... what was the choice you made?”

“I'm very sorry, Big Sis Trixie Destiny, I am certain I have put down my past, but after I made this decision, it did not undergo a complete metamorphosis, nor did it complete the final refining ritual.”

I took out the coin refined from the phantom of the Seed of Destiny, speaking with regret.

“Is that so? Was I too impatient?”

Trixie Destiny hesitated and took the coin I pushed towards her.

She examined it carefully, but no disappointment flashed in her eyes.

“Hmm I can tell that Little Han, you must have made a major choice in your life, but... this has nothing to do with this coin... what a pity... its completion is already close to perfect. Little Han, you should be able to feel the Destiny flowing inside it, right?”

Trixie Destiny pushed the coin back to me.

“Hmm.”

I nodded to confirm.

All the shallow Destiny threads on my body had been transferred to this Destiny Coin.

Although this didn't mean I was unaffected by the push of Destiny, I had broken away from the influence of the shallow Destiny threads on me.

The only things that could affect me were the push of a certain deep-seated Destiny trend, not the tugging of Destiny threads.

This feeling was very comfortable and straightforward.

“But such a semi-finished product is not perfect. I'm not in a great hurry. In fact, I was already prepared to just come and observe the progress this time, but I didn't expect Little Han to be so efficient, which exceeded my expectations.”

“So... is it still lacking something?”

I asked, picking up the coin.

“Actually, I don't know what it's lacking. I can only say to let nature take its course, but generally, when it reaches the final step... based on my experience, it should still be missing a promise that is being fulfilled or a crucial choice. After all, I called it a 'Choice of Destiny'.”

“Is that so...”

With Trixie Destiny's reminder, I seemed to think of Yang Yunhan.

He was the "hurdle" regarding my past that I still hadn't crossed.

I had also promised to go find him on the day the scores were released.

But... it was merely to go find him, to see if he was the kind of person who could be helped up.

I had always had an ambivalent feeling about luring him to the Witch Academy.

Perhaps this implied the meaning of a choice?

Maybe when the day of the actual meeting came, if I still hadn't found my own answer, I would use this coin to make the decision.

Flipping a coin... a very convenient way to make a decision for oneself.

I had heard that in the moment the coin was tossed up and before it landed, the uncertain answer would appear in one's heart.

I didn't know if that was true.

“It seems Little Han, you have an answer in your heart. In that case, I won't disturb you further.”

Trixie Destiny was also very satisfied to see my expression.

She liked children like Little Han very much: obedient and sensible, highly efficient in handling matters, and with outstanding talent and ability.

Such children were truly endearing.

Of course... Trixie Destiny also knew something else.

Some special things had nothing to do with one's own strength.

The brilliance of some geniuses was enough to shine even before they became Transcendent, while persistently mediocre people remained mediocre even after advancing to Transcendent.

Many things were predetermined from the start.

Great power was just thoughtless accumulation; a difference in thinking forged the birth of a genius.

So, she felt that Little Han was a genius who hadn't yet completed her accumulation.

“Oh I almost forgot...”

At this moment, Trixie Destiny seemed to have remembered something and suddenly handed over a Storage Card.

“This is the reward I booked for you in advance, as a periodic return for this Destiny Coin. Once this coin is completely finished, I will give you another reward that will absolutely satisfy you.”

“Huh? This...”

“Go ahead and take it. Consider it my sincerity.”

Trixie Destiny said to me with a smile.

But she was thinking about something else internally... if Academy Head Mei Linde hadn't suddenly approached her and settled accounts with her, she wouldn't have acted this way now.

So... her plan to get something for free had fallen through.

“Thank you, Big Sis Trixie Destiny.”

Seeing Trixie Destiny's unyielding demeanor, I ultimately expressed my gratitude.

After all, I also recalled what Academy Head Mei had told me, that she would help me demand some reward or something.

After seeing Trixie Destiny off, I also pondered my next plan.

Should I go see Academy Head Mei or look for other channels to learn about the Domain?

If I were to go to Big Sis Bai, Big Sis Bai would definitely tell me all her understanding and insights.

If Big Sis Bai was unwilling to speak, she would also certainly provide a convincing reason.

Or should I go to Academy Head Mei?

Big Sis Mei belonged to the type who basically answered every question.

She definitely knew much more than Big Sis Bai, and she also belonged to the type who... well... couldn't keep her mouth shut?

Forget it, I shouldn't be gossiping about Big Sis Mei behind her back.

Furthermore, Big Sis Mei must be quite busy lately.

Although I didn't know what she was busy with, the fact that even arranging a Totem Secret Realm for me had to be postponed until the holiday after the semester proved that she truly had no time.

So... I should still go and exchange feelings with Big Sis Bai.

But before that, I planned to see what good things Big Sis Trixie Destiny gave me.

I felt like I had been constantly receiving gifts lately, but this should also be a reflection of my own value...

I remember back then, when I rose to fame in the exchange competition, my dormitory mailbox was also filled with congratulations and invitations from many clubs and teams in the academy.

But now... I seemed to rarely receive their congratulations.

Perhaps in their eyes, I had become an existence that could not be easily won over.

And choosing to befriend me... that wouldn't be acknowledged just by writing a letter or sending a gift.

Of course, it was also possible that they didn't know where to send the letter.

After all, I hadn't tidied up the mailbox of my original dormitory villa, nor the mailbox of my current independent villa, for a long time.

Furthermore, I rarely wrote letters, so I often overlooked these trivial matters.

Shoving these thoughts aside, I checked the Storage Card that Trixie Destiny gave me.

The Storage Card contained many things, and the most conspicuous... were the Magic Power Sources.

I simply counted them; there were about a thousand.

Including these one thousand, my current total number of Magic Power Sources, if counted accurately, had reached 16,728.

This quantity alone, I felt, was already the limit for non-Transcendents in the academy.

This number alone would shock many people, as their limit, without cutting the Earth Vein Chains, was only ten thousand.

But I had transcended this limit.

Putting aside the Magic Power Sources, I also found some Spellbooks in the Storage Card.

They were better than nothing.

I casually put all these Spellbooks into the Spellbook Shelf Spellbook for safekeeping.

As for the remaining precious materials, I also placed them all into my own Storage Equipment.

Then, I stacked this Storage Card with another stack of Storage Cards.

I must say, I was now one of the people who didn't lack Storage Cards.

Looking at these cards, they were all the same size, with only the card cover being different.

They must have all come from the same type of manufacturing technique.

However, while pouring out those materials, I discovered something that surprised me: the information storage card for the Academy Network's Earth Vein Operating System data!

After a simple appraisal with the Earth Vein Appraisal Spell, I confirmed that the data inside was related to Runology!

“Sure enough...”

Seeing the information inside the storage card, I also felt a bit sentimental.

I didn't expect that my interest in Runology had spread so far?

Just as I was thinking this, I suddenly felt a pang of fear...

A unique perception suddenly erupted in the distance, causing me to instantly stand up.

But I looked at the students passing by me.

None of them showed any expression of shock or noticed any anomaly, as if nothing had happened.

Yet, I clearly perceived it!

It was a special power capable of resonating with my Heart Sense.

My gaze turned towards the direction from which the sensation of dread came.

There was no obvious movement there, just... some not-so-large commotion, but something definitely happened there.

“Let's go take a look... maybe a witch's experiment failed?”

With this thought, I took out my Flying Broom and flew into the sky.

High up, I belatedly realized the direction... it seemed to be Big Sis Bai's residence?

Usually, when I went somewhere, I would teleport directly for convenience, but now, after flying high up and seeing the full view, I realized that place seemed... to indeed be where Big Sis Bai's villa was located.

“It's that close to Big Sis Bai's place? Or could it be... Big Sis Bai herself?”

I muttered to myself as I flew over.

After all, I was planning to go find Big Sis Bai anyway, so I might as well join the excitement.

However, I had an intuition that seemed to tell me... that it was Big Sis Bai, because... I felt a familiar sensation.

It was somewhat similar to my Time Sense, but with distinct differences.

My Time Sense was currently only a Prototype, but the commotion emanating from there gave me a sense of pressure that could genuinely affect me.

As I rushed over, many other witches also perceived this anomaly, so they also came out to see what was happening.

But this incident seemed to only attract a fraction of the Transcendent Witches.

All the students seemed to have not noticed what happened at all.

The closer I got, the more I noticed many witches rushing towards the location.

When I arrived at the scene, looking at the figure standing in the air, my gaze was a little dazed.

It really was Big Sis Bai!

“Huh? Is that Little Han? Little Han, did you also come to join the excitement?”

At this moment, the Witch Sisters who arrived at the same place as me also spotted a "Lesser Witch" like me mixed among the Transcendent Witches, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

“Hello, Big Sis.”

“No worries, I didn't expect Little Han to also perceive this fluctuation... Oh dear, I almost forgot, you're that person's girlfriend, right.”

“Yes.”

I nodded repeatedly, as I didn't think there was anything wrong with admitting this.

“I'm so jealous Her name is Bai Yu, isn't it? I didn't expect her to have mastered the Body Cultivation Domain and even touched upon Time Sense shortly after advancing to Transcendent Witch.”

“Huh? Are you also a Body Cultivator, Big Sis?”

I asked curiously.

Otherwise, if she wasn't a Body Cultivator, she shouldn't know much about Time Sense and the like.

“I'm only a dual cultivator with a focus on Body Cultivation, but my Domain is not a Body Cultivation Domain, but a Spell Domain. However, as fellow Domain users, I can also sense the commotion that is unique to a Domain's metamorphosis.”

“Time Sense...”

I looked at Big Sis Bai at this moment, my internal shock was inevitable, but along with the shock came delight!

Big Sis Bai had also mastered Time Sense!

But Big Sis Bai was just standing there at this moment, like an ordinary person.

Her eyes were closed, seemingly still gaining insight, or perhaps savoring the realization.

An invisible power enveloped the surroundings; that was Big Sis Bai's Body Cultivation Domain.

I could feel that the deployment of this Domain was completely different in nature from mine.

And with this comparative difference, it made me even more certain that my own Domain lacked the intervention of energy, and even more so, the domination of energy!

And at this moment, I also noticed the villa beneath Big Sis Bai... it was already shattered, and the damage had even spread to the surrounding buildings.

She probably didn't control her power well just now, so after sensing the destruction her power caused to the building, Big Sis Bai chose to fly into the sky to gain insight.

I guessed that the not-so-large commotion earlier was the sound of the villa shattering, but it wasn't an explosion, so the commotion was not significant.

A moment later, Big Sis Bai slowly opened her eyes, and the hint of joy in her gaze was hard to conceal at this moment.

This display also conveyed her success to all the witches.

The witches who were close by spontaneously offered their most sincere blessings to their sister, Bai Yu!

Amidst this fervent encouragement, Big Sis Bai did not lose herself in the congratulations.

She subconsciously glanced at the building beneath her that was affected by her uncontrolled power, and then spotted me in the vast crowd of witches.

She smiled at me to signal, and then she stretched out her hand, as if purposefully demonstrating something, but her posture seemed to be manipulating time.

This action... was somewhat similar to my posture when I manipulated the Earth Vein Timeline back then...

And in the next moment, the damaged building seemed to reverse its movement against time.

Whether it was the broken walls, the fallen stones, or even the dispersed dust, everything returned to its original state as if a rewind button had been pressed, with no signs of patching whatsoever!

Until the house and everything inside, whether damaged, destroyed, or displaced, returned to their original appearance, without the slightest trace of splicing!

This casual display immediately stunned the witches who were watching the commotion!

“Wow... a Body Cultivation Time Sense expert! So terrifying!”

At this moment, a certain witch in the back rows gasped in admiration and let out an expression of self-proclaimed ignorance.

“Is it too late for me to switch to Body Cultivation now?”

“Hmm... I feel like it could rival my Time-element Spell Domain.”

“Huh? Are there even Time-element Spell experts paying attention to this matter now?”

It should be known that in the Transcendent realm, the concept of time was an objective existence that could not be proven.

The definition of time was always the here and now, and so-called time travel was impossible.

But precisely because of this, a "Time-element Spell" that "defined" the concept of time appeared among spells.

A witch who could walk this path was bound to be a witch of extremely high talent, possessing extraordinary thinking, basically someone whom no one could afford to provoke.

This was because when they took action, their methods were incomprehensible to all non-Time-element spell researchers.

Incomprehensible meant unpreventable and unconquerable.

Similarly, a Body Cultivation expert who mastered Time Sense... was now also an existence whom ordinary experts could not afford to provoke!

And this newly promoted Transcendent Witch had reached the height of being "unprovokable" in the hearts of many witches with her extremely fast rise!

At the same time, they secretly remembered this name, "Bai Yu."

Some witches vaguely recalled that this witch, Bai Yu... also seemed to have a Lesser Witch girlfriend?
