Chapter 213: The Exchange of Inspirers_2
"I'm also a Spiritual Perceiver, and I awakened before you,"
Bai Qilan explained calmly, "You've just awakened. If you try to sense too much, then your spiritual energy and mental strength will be insufficient."
Zhao Yaqian was completely confused, just asking somewhat dumbly, "This, this is my ability?"
"Exactly,"
Bai Qilan nodded, "We're all Spiritual Perceivers. We are especially sensitive to spiritual perception and environmental sensing. The place before your eyes is the Spiritual World, stripped of all other elements of the world, leaving only a world of spiritual energy. Here, you can sense many things, humans, monsters, spatial fissures, or Spiritual Perceivers like you and me.
As long as you sense with your heart, you should be able to master it quickly."
She didn't conceal anything about being a Spiritual Perceiver, as Zhao Yaqian could have discovered these things by herself through trial and error.
"Thank you, Miss Bai."
Yet this information was precious to Zhao Yaqian, as it might save her from taking many wrong turns in understanding her Talent.
However, Zhao Yaqian felt something odd at this moment.
The proactive explanation from Bai Qilan seemed completely different from the cold demeanor she had shown in their previous interactions.
"Miss Bai, why are you willing to tell me all this?"
Zhao Yaqian simply asked the question that crossed her mind.
Bai Qilan just laughed lightly and said, "Because you're also a Spiritual Perceiver, you can see more, and this apocalypse isn't something that can be dealt with easily."
Her eyes moved slightly, indicating that her initiative to contact Zhao Yaqian was not merely out of curiosity, but also part of her own plans.
Zhao Yaqian's brows creased slightly. Bai Qilan had already moved close to her side.
"Don't resist. Let me show you."
Bai Qilan grabbed Zhao Yaqian's hand. Zhao Yaqian instinctively wanted to resist, but remembering Bai Qilan's words, she suppressed the urge.
Bai Qilan nearly exerted her full Spiritual Perceiver ability, taking advantage of Zhao Yaqian's unique state at the time of her first awakening.
Instantly, the sensing energies of the two converged, countless points of light formed rapidly, varying in strength, almost filling the entire South City at a glance.
The silhouettes of humans were small and scattered, while monsters thronged the entire city, ravaging every corner.
A hundred thousand, half a million, or even a million?
The number of monsters far exceeded Zhao Yaqian's expectations, and such a scene also made her heart sink violently. These were the numbers of monsters they would have to face in the future.
Energy drained quickly. Bai Qilan's voice came through, "This is just the apocalypse in South City. I don't think you can reclaim South City before all its inhabitants perished."
"Miss Bai, what do you mean?"
Zhao Yaqian reacted sharply, while Bai Qilan just looked at her with a smile.
"Personal opinion, but you might want to ponder about it,"
Bai Qilan said with a smile, "Also, you're running low on spiritual energy."
No sooner had she spoken than the framework of the Spiritual World shattered loudly, and Zhao Yaqian felt an immediate sense of emptiness, unable to even maintain her form, vanishing instantly.
At the first awakening, perception is most special and can perform above normal, seeing more than usual.
Zhao Yaqian should have, like Bai Qilan initially, exited the state of the Spiritual World due to overexertion.
But with Bai Qilan's support, she naturally maintained it longer.
However, Bai Qilan now actively guided her to see more information, making it impossible to sustain.
Bai Qilan's figure vanished, returning to her own body, her complexion slightly pale, also having spent a considerable amount of energy.
"It seems that my previous feeling wasn't wrong, Zhao Yaqian should be inclined to our side,"
It was accidental that she sensed Zhao Yaqian's awakening, but guiding her was a decision Bai Qilan made on a whim.
If Yan Tiejun and his people could anticipate possible future conflicts with Tree Domain, how could Su Han, Bai Qilan, Yan Meiyu, and the others not have considered it?
Exchanges of injections, enhancement drugs, and special alloys represented a peaceful evolution, making South City's camp more dependent on Tree Domain.
And now, Bai Qilan wanted to pull the rug out from under them and try to shake their second-generation group.
She wasn't sure about Duan Jie, but Zhao Yaqian definitely had a strong leaning towards the Tree Domain; it was worth a try.
Being Spiritual Perceivers, their communication isn't that complex and is also very secretive.
...
"Yaqian, are you alright?"
The exchange between the Spiritual Perceivers took only an instant in time, while in the real world, Bai Qiuwen and the others suddenly saw Zhao Yaqian look weak, as if she was about to fall.
Zhao Yaqian came to her senses and, having regained a little strength, shook her head and replied, "I'm fine, it's just an overdose of ability usage, the consumption was a bit large."
Her gaze was vacant for a moment before she regained her composure, opting not to think about those things for now.
"Glad you're okay. Your Talent?"
Bai Qiuwen let out a sigh of relief and then inquired.
"I'm a Spiritual Perceiver. I can sense the situation within a certain range, especially life forms containing spiritual energy. I also have a bit of psychokinetic power, though it doesn't seem very strong,"
Her eyes flickered, and for some reason, she concealed Bai Qilan's appearance and only said, "However, I think I can send messages from a distance, using spiritual energy and mental strength." Continue reading on empire

Duan Jie and Zhao Yaqian both awakened their Talents. Although they hadn't broken through to Third Order, their current strength was nothing to scoff at.
Li Ruikang, Guo Wutao, and others decided together to begin expanding outwards from the industrial park, aiming to rescue as many survivors as possible.
At this point, South City was like a massive machine beginning its operation.
Southern City Guards, wearing armor, some of whom came from the Armed Forces and had experience with firearms, held spiritual energy rifles in hand.
