Chapter 91: We can all be edge-lords!

Once I made sure no one was nearby, I summoned my flying sword again and jumped on it, then I followed the map that led to the Poison Valley.

It took me less than two hours to meet people, a group of demons from Vitra'Ghoul's kingdom. When they saw me flying through them, they did the unthinkable, trying to use divine sense to scry and investigate me.

But the moment their divine sense touched my body, the Sky Pearl tingled and its inscriptions were triggered, a bright light shone from behind my eyepatch and then loud screams of pain, and agonized lurching sounds echoed around me.

I continued unperturbed, leaving a group of cultivators frightened beyond fear, shuddering in their place.

It's quite nasty, if anyone was prepared and knew what to expect, they'll never use their divine sense like they just did. There were two methods of using one's divine sense on another person. The first is to forcefully apply it to another person, a pervasive measure to see into the person's body, meridians, and their cultivation. But this is actually not the best method, not even the Poison God did this because it didn't just invade a person's body, but also it would allow the person to retaliate, sending your divine sense into another person's body was the same as asking for your hand to be chopped.

The second method was less overbearing, a gentle scry, to have one's divine sense just be on top of a person's skin, it would do the same as you could have your divine sense scan the person's residual spiritual Qi and immediately gouge their strength, and if the other person tried to assault this divine sense since you haven't pervaded their body, you could easily retract yours. Though the second method was the safest, it was also the most complicated and required a lot of experience to understand Qi waves that were emanating from another person, because some, cultivators have such deep cultivation that they could easily hide their Qi release and look like mortals. But there were always deeper seas and higher mountains, and experience can make one know the level of another person even if they make themselves look and feel like mortals.

All of this was mentioned in a passage of the poison god's book, thankfully, the book still taught me many things, and since I unlocked the Core Formation stage, the book's instructions were heavily related to cultivation advice instead of skills and abilities. It seems that the book was preparing
