Chapter 422: Inner Journey
Translator: LawEditor: Hitesh
Within that magnificent splendor, Yu Yu’s clear and resonant voice rang in Ji Hai’s head, reading this scripture over and over again.
The scripture didn’t have a title. Its language was simple and plain, not containing any unnecessary, decorative phrases. This short and simple scripture frankly stated a general, yet unfathomable knowledge — How to nourish the soul, cultivate the spirit, merge the spirit power with nature and eventually go beyond the transmigration, achieving immortality.
The last time, Yu Yu imparted Yu Yu’s Study of Magic Formation to Ji Hao. The study of magic formations was a method, a skill, also could be seen as a way to use the natural powers and natural laws. The [Mantra Dan with Nine Secret Words] that Ji Hao had been studying for many years, properly speaking, was also a method, a way to communicate with nature and develop the potential of the human bodies, and attain all kinds of magical powers by using the powers of nature.
Yu Yu’s Study of Magic Formation was extensive and profound, and included a great, wide range of knowledge that was complicated and unspeakable, such as the systems of astrology, sidereal revolutions and heavenly circuits. Compared to Yu Yu’s Study of Magic Formation, [Mantra Dan with Nine Secret words] was especially detailed and meticulous, like a picture of lands and cities embossed on a single thread of hair, achieving an extreme degree of detail and exquisiteness.
Nevertheless, both Yu Yu’s study of magic formation and [Mantra Dan with Nine Secret Words] were only methods, skills that could be used to manipulate nature powers and steer the mysteriousness of nature.
As for this scripture Yu Yu had been imparting to Ji Hao right now, which was of primitive simplicity yet with solid substance, the essence of it was the original Dao of this world!
Ji Hao’s body was trembling and his blood had been insanely surging inside his body. While he was breathing deeply in and out, long, sharp and strong gusts of wind rose in the woods. The woods was swinging, sand and dirt rose, driving in the air; all creatures living in the woods like birds and wolves, insects and bugs, had huddled their bodies up, daring not to move.
Po waved his right hand, following which, a large, golden flag rose into the sky along with numerous golden lotuses. Those golden lotuses rotated in the air, covering up this entire piece of woods. Instantly, all abnormal phenomena disappeared. Looking from a distance, one could only see beautiful natural scenes in this area, without detecting anything strange at all.
Followed by long breaths, great and pure streams of nature power were inhaled into Ji Hao’s body, as the Golden Dan in his spirit space began spinning swiftly. That black and yellow sphere of mist, which was condensed from the reward given by nature for his merits, had been merging with the Golden Dan. Gradually, the Golden Dan emitted a dazzlingly bright light, lighting up every single corner of Ji Hao’s spirit space.
Yu Yu sat in front of Ji Hao, explaining the meaning of every single word in the scripture to Ji Hao. Every time he read a word in the scripture aloud, thin streams of purple mist would descend from the air, land on the ground and silently blast out, transforming into lotuses, swaying along the wind.
Abruptly, Yu Yu took a glance at the woods, then gave a faint smile and waved his long, broad sleeve. Right after that, a few smart-looking monkeys, a couple of large birds, several birds from a clear pool, one crab and two prawns, were brought over to in front of Yu Yu simultaneously.
“You’re destined to hear this, so you shall just listen carefully. As for how much you can understand, that will depend solely on yourselves.” said Yu Yu gently while smilingly looking at these animals, “If you can manage to grow a slight trace of Dao power in you, you will be admitted as my registered disciple!”
Ji Hao opened his eyes, looked at these lucky ones which had just been invited by Yu Yu to the lecture for a while, then smiled knowingly.
These little ones were truly lucky that they had met Yu Yu, such an enlightened Daoist priest, who was willing provide education to all living creatures without discrimination. Silently, Ji Hao made an unspoken criticism for the other few so-called ‘powerful beings’, who were extremely picky in selecting disciples. If these animals met those ‘powerful ones’, they might have already been kicked to thousands of miles away.
Ji Hao closed his eyes and settled his mind, quietly and listening to Yu Yu’s lecture with utmost concentration.
That black and yellow mist had merged completely with the Golden Dan. The light emitted by the Golden Dan grew magnificently bright, seeming to even to shine the outside world through Ji Hao’s body.
A bright light spot emerged from in between Ji Hao’s eyebrows. The light spot sparkled brightly like glistening water. Showering under this splendid light, those creatures invited by Yu Yu, Mr Crow, who was standing on Ji Hao’s head, and the pair of magic fire snakes lying on Ji Hao’s shoulders, cheered out together. Within the coverage of the bright light released from the light spot in between his eyebrows, Ji Hao sensed that in the eyes of these creatures, including Mr Crow and the two snakes, lights of intelligence had been added. By now, when these creatures turned their heads and looked around, the looks on their faces were not much different from ordinary people already.
