《Death… And Me》Death... And Me

Rean pondered a bit before saying.
'Should we go to the mission hall or the Blue Orchid District?'
Roan also thought a bit about the two options.
'The Blue Orchid District has the least amount of people. So, in theory, the orchid District would also have the least amount of security. However, it might be one more reason for them to reinforce the vigilance. I would say that we should check the Mission Hall first. If there is really a mission issued to be done in the Sect, we should find the information there. In that case, the fact that Malaka is in a mission wouldn't be a lie.'
Rean nodded, and the twins left sometime later. The Sect had disciples coming and going all the time. You never know when a group would be coming back from a mission. Because of that, the Mission Hall was always open. That being said, it wasn't hard for them to sneak inside.
Ever since Rean used his camouflage ability for the first time back in the Hyenas' Territory, he had been improving it nonstop. His ability to bend Light simply couldn't be compared anymore. That being said, it wouldn't be easy to see him with the naked eye.
However, if Spiritual Sense was used, he would be discovered straight away.
Going four years back in time, Rean had just started to think about Spiritual Sense when it came to his camouflage skill.
In a certain sense, Spiritual Sense is just like Light. It has a source, and it would spread outwards. Since Light can be bent, why can't Spiritual Sense? The question is. Would a Spiritual Sense owner notice if his Spiritual Sense bent as Rean does with Light? Would he think that his Spiritual Sense is being interfered with by something or someone?

Rean, with Sister Orb, Roan, and others' help, had been testing his theory. It turned out that it depended on how significant the interference was and how far both parties' cultivation was apart.
How did Rean reach this conclusion? That's because of a rule that Juri explained to him in the past.
"When a strong cultivator, let's say a Core Formation one, enters the Spiritual Sense area of an Energy Gathering Realm one, the Energy Gathering Realm cultivator can't sense him."
Rean couldn't help but think, why does it happen? It is not something done voluntarily, but that happens automatically. However, only when Rean encountered the Zafa Bank expert, back in Astreg City, that he finally understood it better. At that time, the Core and Soul Fusion Expert of the Zafa Bank explained to him.
"There is a limit to how well a Higher Realm cultivator can hide from the Spiritual Sense of a Lower Realm one. For example, let's say an Initial Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator tries to enter the Spiritual Sense range of an Energy Gathering Realm one. At that time, whether the Energy Gathering Realm Cultivator can feel the Foundation Establishment guy or not will depend on how much interference was caused."
"If the Foundation Establishment guy moves fast, the higher will be the interference. In that case, the Energy Gathering Realm cultivator will probably notice him. However, if he slowly approaches the Energy Gathering Realm cultivator, chances are that he won't be detected. Of course, if the cultivator's realm is much higher than yours, then it won't matter even if he runs."
It was then that Rean's idea of Spiritual Sense being bent gained strength. If we use a metaphor, it is pretty much like air in a closed space. If you stay still, you won't feel it since there is no wind. However, if you start moving, especially running, you will feel the air hitting your body. The wind is the cultivator's Spiritual Sense. Only when you walk or run can he feel your presence.

As for why much Higher Realm cultivators can run in the air without you noticing, Rean came up with another theory and metaphor for it.
"It's like aerodynamics. The higher your cultivation, the more aerodynamic you become. Low-Level cultivator's Spiritual Sense would be considered a 'gentle breeze.' Thanks to the overwhelm aerodynamics of Higher Level cultivators, the Low-Level cultivators can't feel their 'gentle breeze' touching the High-Level cultivators' 'aerodynamic' body."
"At the same time, the higher your Realm, the stronger your 'wind/air,' which is the Spiritual Sense, becomes. If the other cultivators want to hide from it, their 'aerodynamics' must improve even more, which means that they need to be at even Higher Realms."
At that time, Roan and Sister Orb had to admit that Rean's theories made Sense. In fact, chances were that he was probably right. Even Sister Orb's Soul Gem System didn't have any information about it, so she recorded everything.
Now, here's the million dollars question. How to become more 'aerodynamic' without having higher cultivation? That's when Rean's concept of Light and Spiritual Sense came into play. The Light Element was directly related to Life Energy. Spiritual Sense, as far as Rean knows, can only be used by 'living being.' That being said, Spiritual Sense is a type of energy, just like Light and Spiritual Energy. It was so much that a cultivator needed to use Spiritual Energy to fuel it. If you keep it going for too long, you will get tired, so Life Energy was included in the process too.
Rean had to thank the fact that he came from Earth at this point. Ancient Cultivators simply never stopped to think about such complex issues. These conceptions are too 'futuristic' for this place, especially the concept that Light is a type of energy, just like Spiritual Energy or any other kind.
However, it was one thing to talk about a theory, but another to put it into practice. Rean took months just to find a link between the Light Element, then Life Energy, and finally Spiritual Sense 'Energy.' But from that point onwards, the world of Spiritual Sense changed for him.
Now, Rean is already 10 years old. It has been 4 years that he had been practicing not bending only Light, but Spiritual Sense as well, all of that through his control of the Light Element.
Today, it was the first time he would try to use it outside the Varen Tribe. The reason is simple. What if others found out that he could hide from Spiritual Energy? It was better to keep such a secret between him, Sister Orb, and Roan.
