Lufan's first experimental subject was Fatty. He began to observe Fatty's every action in order to predict his next move.
At first, he found it quite challenging, even though he could anticipate each of Fatty's actions. However, this was largely due to his understanding of Fatty's behavioral habits, based on reasoning and logic, rather than a complete grasp of human movements.
Whenever Fatty consciously made some deceptive moves, Lufan often needed to pause and think; otherwise, he would make incorrect judgments and fail to predict accurately.
In the fast-paced environment of battle, there is simply not enough time for such contemplation. By the time one has formulated a plan, they might already be struck down by the enemy.
The so-called prediction is essentially the process of organizing and summarizing collected information before interpreting it to make one's own judgment.
Many ordinary people can achieve this in daily life, but doing so in combat is extremely difficult. After all, predicting an enemy's attack in that brief moment requires strong information gathering and analytical skills.
If someone could truly accomplish this, it would be terrifying. Imagine that every one of your attacks is fully understood by the enemy; how could you possibly fight back? The opponent would almost inherently be in an unbeatable position.
Thus, the key lies in gathering sufficient physical information about the opponent in a very short time. The more information collected simultaneously, the more accurate the predictions can be.
As Mr. An previously mentioned, all impressions we have of the external world come from our five senses receiving external information, which then reflects various manifestations in our minds.
Among the five senses, the eyes receive the most information, accounting for the vast majority of what we perceive. Therefore, in daily life, people tend to rely more on their vision, believing that what they see is real, while neglecting the importance of the other four senses.
The saying "hearing is deceiving, seeing is believing" largely explains people's reliance on their eyesight.
However, many times, a person's eyes are the easiest to deceive. Various tricks and magic in folk culture, as well as the feints and distractions in martial arts, are all aimed at deceiving the eyes.
To better anticipate an opponent's movements, one must strengthen the development of the other four senses!
Realizing this, Lufan simply closed his eyes and relied on his other four senses to perceive the outside world.
After shutting off his vision, Lufan indeed experienced a different sensation of the world.
The world turned pitch black, and everything he was once familiar with became strange. Even walking, a simple task, became difficult; if he wasn't careful, he would bump into a wall.
Lufan began to understand the feelings of Black-hearted Tiger back then; it was such a sense of helplessness. With his eyes blinded, nearly seventy percent of his strength was rendered useless.
He had to explore this world in an entirely new way; otherwise, he would find it nearly impossible to move.
Soon, he thought of a method: using sound.
Like a bat, he could use sound vibrations and reflections to detect the specifics of his surroundings.
This was not easy to accomplish, but with his extraordinary perception abilities and after three days of adaptation, Lufan had basically grasped the trick.
In simple terms, he treated himself as a radar receiver, interpreting external information by receiving sound reflections from objects.
He felt the wonders within this process; by merely analyzing the different frequencies of the reflected sounds, he could actually determine the distance, size, shape, and even material of surrounding objects!
Additionally, he could discern the scent of objects through his sense of smell and detect temperature changes emitted by objects through touch, making all sensations more vivid.
Even Lufan could construct a scene in his mind similar to a 3D model based on this information, and he discovered that the world perceived through sound seemed to be more accurate than that observed by the naked eye.
Lufan quickly figured out the reason: the information received by the eyes travels through light, and light is more easily affected by its environment than sound, making it normal for there to be greater discrepancies.
Soon, Lufan was able to move freely; even with his eyes closed, the environment no longer constrained him. To further train this ability, he had Fatty repeatedly mess up everything in the room, then he would flow through the chaos effortlessly.
Fatty watched in astonishment, scratching his head and deciding not to think about why. He had seen enough wonders during this time.
Despite the unexpected gains, Lufan was not satisfied; he had not forgotten that his ultimate goal was to master true precognition.
Fatty became his test subject once again. This time, instead of watching movements, Lufan focused on directly sensing the signs of Fatty's internal energy flow.
Movements can be deceptive, but regardless of how a person moves, they still require energy to drive those actions. Lufan was now able to sense the flow of energy and anticipate an opponent's movements.
Though this moment was insignificant—just a fleeting instant—it was crucial in battles between experts, where such moments could determine life or death.
By grasping the direction of a person's energy flow, one could understand their movements. This realization dawned on Lufan.
However, when he attempted to sense Uncle Fu's energy, he found it impossible. In his perception, Uncle Fu's energy was a unified whole—immense yet heavy as a mountain—completely beyond his grasp.
Uncle Fu clearly noticed Lufan's attempts. He chuckled, implying that Lufan was still too inexperienced and far from achieving his goal.
Lufan thought to himself that indeed, all techniques are relative. His skills might work against ordinary Martial Cultivators but were still too immature when facing a master like Uncle Fu.
Yet he felt no disappointment; instead, he found it quite interesting. Lufan continued with his eyes closed and walked outside, eventually reaching the street.
Of course, just a moment ago he had already controlled the muscles in his face to change his appearance; otherwise, given his current level of notoriety, he would likely have been surrounded by onlookers in an instant.
Now, in the eyes of others, he was merely an ordinary blind boy.
After stepping outside onto the street, with his senses deliberately heightened, Lufan felt like a drop of water falling into a pot of oil, causing the entire world to erupt in noise. This forced him to start filtering out useless information and focus only on sounds that were beneficial to him.
As Lufan walked, he continued to sift through the noise. Although his eyes were closed, he naturally avoided bumping into anyone. With each passing moment of eliminating unnecessary information, a peculiar image began to form in his mind.
This image was composed of sounds, smells, temperatures, and other sensory inputs. Within this image, Lufan could predict many things.
He knew that the woman frying pancakes ahead would soon be splashed by hot oil, that two men to his right were about to bump shoulders, and that a thief behind him was trying to slip his hand into his pocket.
Everything seemed to be under his control. Even though he could only predict events occurring within seconds, Lufan was deeply enchanted by this sensation. He felt as if he were listening to a beautiful symphony, where everything was harmonious and natural.
Senses Unified had such a miraculous effect.
If fine control allowed Lufan to master his own body, then Senses Unified granted him the ability to grasp all external information.
The thief was still intent on stealing money when Lufan decided to teach him a lesson. At that moment, a particularly unusual footstep caught his attention—like a jarring noise suddenly intruding into a magnificent symphony.
Lufan turned around abruptly and opened his eyes!
