C47 The Main Body of the Spiritual Lotus
The main body of the spiritual lotus.
There was no one in the room in Bamboo House. Jun Ling needed to control the Dao Stage Power, so Tang Wenshu and the others didn't come upstairs to disturb him. Sitting cross-legged on the bed, he closed his eyes and calmed his mind. He breathed in and out steadily and strongly. Slowly circulating his Yuan energy into his meridians, the Grand Void Vast Firmament Spell began circulating at the same time.
The Dao Stage Power was a power that every Martial Cultivator had to control. Although it was tiny, it was the most important kind of profound energy. If he couldn't control the Dao Stage Power, then his future cultivation would probably stop at the Dao Stage. The Dao Stage Power was the power to strengthen one's own realm after one's body broke through to a higher level. The meridians that were baptized by the Dao Stage Power were incomparably tough, and at the same time, it would help him cultivate with twice the result with half the effort.
If Bai Yan had the Dao Stage Power that day, his cultivation and strength would have a qualitative leap. Jun Ling would certainly not be a match for him, but he had only broken through for a short period of time, and didn't have the time to control the Dao Stage Power. Otherwise, the outcome wouldn't be like this.
After calming his mind, Jun Ling felt as if he was in a mysterious space. There was no movement at all. Everything was incomparably silent. This mysterious state lasted for about two hours. Jun Ling wasn't impatient, but he was still patiently searching for that wonderful state.
Time passed bit by bit. Jun Ling, who was sitting on the bed, didn't make any movements. Both of his hands formed a seal and placed his mind in an extremely stable state. The flow of Yuan Power in his Qi Paths seemed to have become extremely slow. If his body was able to adapt to the Dao Stage, it would be very easy for him to control the Dao Stage Power.
However... it was clearly not that fast. Another four hours passed and Jun Ling still found nothing. He could not help but feel somewhat anxious. After all, he had been maintaining a posture for a long time. The anxiety in his heart would completely disrupt his mind. When Jun Ling opened his eyes, he could only scatter his Yuan energy. If this continued, he would definitely go crazy.
"Hehe, little kid, you look very anxious."
At this moment, an extremely abrupt voice suddenly sounded. Jun Ling was slightly startled as he looked around. He could not help but sigh and say, "I'm hallucinating. Looks like I won't be able to control the Dao Stage Power today."
"This is not an illusion. This old man really exists."
Very quickly, the voice sounded once again. This time, Jun Ling heard it clearly. A trace of fear couldn't help but surge up in his heart. This kind of person who he couldn't see was the most frightening one. He cautiously asked, "Who are you?"
"In front of you!"
After that elderly voice sounded, numerous white fog suddenly gathered in front of him. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a white-haired old man who stood in front of him. That old man's body was transparent and only half of his body remained. His face was kind, but no matter how one looked at it, it caused one's back to feel a chill.
"What are you?" Jun Ling suppressed the urge to run away and asked. The old man stroked his beard with a smile. He said, "I have entered your body ever since you fell into the Cave Flute Lake. Could it be that you really have no impression of me?"
"The lake?"
Jun Ling was slightly startled when he heard this. Immediately, he revealed an expression of disbelief as he said, "You... You are that lotus root?" The old man slowly shook his head and said, "Please correct me. It is not an ordinary lotus root. My actual body is a Nine Clarity Lotus Root. You fell into the Cave Flute Lake. If I had not saved you, I'm afraid your life and death would be unknown. "
"Why did you save me? We don't know each other." After Jun Ling found out that the old man was the spiritual lotus root, he suddenly felt less afraid. Humans were such a strange species. People who pretended to be ghosts were indeed scary. However, if he knew that the person who pretended to be a ghost was someone he was familiar with, he would not be afraid anymore.
The sudden appearance of this old man had somewhat frightened Jun Ling, but when Jun Ling knew that this was the true form of the spiritual lotus, he suddenly stopped being afraid. Fear came from the depths of his heart. If he no longer felt fear in his heart, how could he be afraid?
"There's no reason. The Nine Clarity Lotus Root is a sacred item. Do you need a reason to save someone?" The old man's withered eyebrows glared at him as he spoke snappily. Jun Ling looked at him indifferently without saying anything. The old man cleared his throat and said slowly, "This old man has watched you cultivate all the way here. I have to say, your talent is not something ordinary people can compare with."
Jun Ling still looked at him coldly without even moving his eyebrows. The old man immediately became angry. He took a deep breath and said, "You want to control the Dao Stage Power, right? I can help you."
"Oh." Jun Ling's casual expression made the old man almost go crazy. He could see a trace of anger appearing on his face as he said, "Kid! Do you think that I am lying to you?"
"No, no. Continue." Jun Ling laid back with his hands on his head and leaned to the side. The old man was so angry that his beard was blowing. Then he suddenly thought of something. He laughed strangely and said, "Do you want to take revenge for your family? Do you want to find your parents?"
Swoosh!
Jun Ling's expression changed immediately. He sat up and breathed quickly. "Do you have a way?" he asked. The old man chuckled when he saw Jun Ling's reaction. "I thought you were immune to fire and water. It seems like you have something that you have to pay attention to."
"Rubbish!" Jun Ling's face darkened and said, "Can you help me find my parents? I don't even know if they are still alive or not." When the old man heard this, he revealed a surprised expression and said, "Didn't you already see them?"
"Have you seen them?" Jun Ling was startled.
"Didn't I see him in my dream?" The old man said with a serious expression. Jun Ling sighed and said with a gloomy expression, "It was just a dream. There is no way to verify whether it was real or fake."
"Little kid, that was not a dream." The old man descended from the sky and floated to Jun Ling's side. He said, "You were cultivating in a cave in Dark Devil Mountain Range. The stone you sat on was not ordinary. That was the famous Heart Derivation Stone in Chaos Continent. It could transmit the real situation of the person you were thinking of to you through a dream. So it was not a dream, but the real situation of your parents. "
"That's true!!" Jun Ling suddenly became excited and rushed over, wanting to hold the old man's hand. However, he passed through the old man's body like a stream of air. Jun Ling was stunned for a moment, then he cupped his fist and said, "May I know the name of this old man?"
"This old man's name is Liyuan, little kid! Obtaining the Nine Clarity Lotus Root is your fortune, but this old man wants to remind you of the person who possesses a heaven defying sacred object. There will definitely be three great tribulations and six minor tribulations in your life. If you pass all nine tribulations... If you are unable to endure it, then you will be the number one person in the Chaos Continent! This also means that you are only fated to obtain them, but not fated to have them. You can take revenge if you want to! Then you have to take me as your master!" Liyuan's tone was very serious. His voice was not loud, but it clearly reached Jun Ling's ears.
After thinking for a while, a trace of firmness flashed across Jun Ling's eyes. Not only was he not afraid, but he was also filled with fighting spirit. He cupped his fists at Liyuan and knelt down on one knee. "Disciple Jun Ling greets master!"
Just as his voice faded, Jun Ling felt as though there was a spring breeze under his knees. His body was lifted up. Liyuan's face also had some praise as he said, "In the future, you will thank you for your choice today."
