Chapter 276 Enlightenment at the Foot of Mount Qingcheng

Lin Luoran closes her eyes and uses her spiritual mind to see the world.

The noise of the tourists slowly fades away, then she can’t hear the conversation between people around her. All that on her mind is the spiral of smoke and the slow ring of the bell in the Qingcheng Taoist Temple.

The ring of the bell sounds serious and grand.

Every time the bell rings, Lin Luoran’s ears shiver. Gradually, all she can see are the five colors in the world and all she can hear is the purest sound of nature.

The first thing Lin Luoran notices is fire. A flame fruit helped cleansed her bone marrow, which means that she is destined to be close with the nature of fire.

The tourists are holding candles in their hands. The little flames shake because of the wind. The flames sense the presence of Lin’s spiritual mind and grumble to it that the wind is bothering them. Lin Luoran blocks the wind for the flames and they laugh. Molecules of fire Reiki are small and naughty. They surround Lin Luoran and keep talking to her. Lin Luoran hears them talking with a smile and pays her attention to other things.

Spring is running in the mountain and the water splashes on the rocks like pearls.

The spring runs freely in the mountain among the mist. The water Reiki molecules are crystal blue. Mountain and water always keep each other companied. The cold rocks further bring out the flexibility and mildness of the water.

In winter, most of the plants on Mount Qingcheng wither. Yellow and dark green grass cover the mountain. A few trees still are vigorous in the face of the coldness, which show the toughness of trees.

A pine tree’s branches bend because of the heavy snow on them. Lin Luoran can feel that the wood Reiki in the tree is temporarily suppressed by water Reiki. In fact, “suppress” may be the wrong word for this. During the four seasons, Reiki of the five natures each has its own prime time. When one kind of Reiki is at its peak, other Reiki will step down and let the one shine.

For example, right here, right now, water Reiki becomes outstanding after snow falls.

Although snow has bent the branches of the tree, water and wood Reiki are not against each other. The reason is that snow will melt into water when spring comes and nourish all of the plants on the mountain. The snow water will also merge into a little spring and it will run down to the plain down the mountain and provide water for this land.

Lin Luoran can even sense the seeds of plants under the snow. The seeds need energy to sprout and they need to sleep through winter and preserve enough energy to sprout in the spring.

Lin Luoran’s spiritual mind runs around and sees the modest earth Reiki. Earth will turn into porcelain after being burnt in the fire. In the cold winter, earth stays put. When spring comes, it will be washed away by the snow water and settle down at another place. Various kinds of plants grow on earth, which provides nourishment for wood Reiki. Without earth, no plant can live and there will be no wood Reiki in the world.

Earth quietly devotes itself generously.

All the jars Lin Luoran made prove that earth is malleable. Square, round, carved and painted… Earth can be whatever it is made to be.

What about gold? Where is gold Reiki?

All the metals and minerals buried under the ground belong to the nature of gold.

The strong energy of life in the plants belongs to the nature of gold.

The break of a branch and a step in a pond also belong to the nature of gold.

Li Xi’er, who is standing next to Lin Luoran, has sharp gold Reiki flowing inside of her even though she is sweet and not a fan of killing.

Gold Reiki hides in the other four kinds of Reiki. It lays low usually but it never tolerates violation. If something alarms gold Reiki, it will turn into the most powerful weapon in the world. Gold is meant to kill.

While surrounded by Reiki, Lin Luoran has a feeling that she suddenly understands them more but she is more confused at the same time.

The world is so vast and colorful and it is made of the five elements. How can she be able to say that she understands them all?

The truth is, Lin Luoran is using her spiritual mind to make a tour around the mountain. She watches the birds fly and listens to the insects chirp. She looks at the frosted deep pond and feels the falling leaves and dancing flowers. Everything has its life. Earth is mild and gold is sharp… Lin Luoran is in a good mood and she feels free. Then she smiles.

Her body is connected to the outside world and Reiki of the five natures flushes inside of her. Standing at the top of the crowded mountain, Reiki inside of Lin Luoran is echoing with that in the air.

She doesn’t try to steal the energy of other living things. Lin Luoran is not short of Reiki. What she needs is just the enlightenment after deep thinking.

That’s right. She is enlightened and she enters the next level of cultivation!

Reiki rushes in her meridians. Reiki in her blood, bones, and hair, all rush to her pubic area where her Sea of Reiki is, and the Reiki is all consumed by the three swirling nebulas.

Every circle the nebulas swirl, Reiki is transformed into Wakan.

The Wakan is a lot more and thicker than before. Lin Luoran feels that her spiritual mind is also being nourished. The pure Wakan goes back to her blood and bone in the form of Reiki molecules. However, something is different. The Reiki molecules are stronger and bigger and they blend in with her body better than ever.

As the nebulas swirl, Lin Luoran knows that she is getting stronger.

Little by little, she has already passed the middle stage of Laying Foundation.

The Reiki of five natures is not stopping. Why not let them moving longer?

Lin Luoran smiles. It turns out she can get greedy sometimes.

……

At the foot of the mountain, Lin Luoran experiences enlightenment and she enters the next level of cultivation.

Lin Luodong has started his cultivation yet and Huang Weijian only has a powerful magic weapon and a low level of cultivation. Among the three people around Lin Luoran now, Li Xi’er is the only one who is familiar with cultivation. She is innocent and pure and she has a single Taoist root of gold, which makes her quite sensitive to gold Reiki.

Li Xi’er is the first person to notice that Lin Luoran is not in a daze. She is in tranquility! Li Xi’er starts to panic because of the thought. She is aware of the fact that all cultivators treasure this kind of enlightenment. However, Lin Luoran is in tranquility at this noisy and crowded place. Li Xi’er has become much maturer after what has happened in the past few years. She worries that some tourists may come too close to Lin and ruin her tranquility.

Li Xi’er can’t cast any spell in front of all of these ordinary people. She decides to call more people here to protect Lin Luoran!

Li makes a quick call. She asks Lin Luodong to pack the things and sends Huang Weijian to walk around the area. Huang is such a cold young boy and many tourists actually get frightened by his atmosphere and leave this area.

Li Xi’er calls Yuan Ye and Mr. Lin.

Li feels relaxed when she knows that they are coming here. Then she realizes that standing next to Lin, her own spiritual mind is also expanding and her state of mind is open.

God! So much Reiki of the five natures is around Lin. Reiki in the world is restless and all cultivators have to treat Reiki carefully. Will Lin be ok? Li Xi’er thinks. Fortunately, Mr. Lin and Yuan Ye are here by shortcut and Liu Zheng follows them behind.

It’s not the time to ask why Liu Zheng comes. Li Xi’er is decisive and she asks the three men to stand in different directions.

Five cultivators are standing in the same directions as the five natures. Li Xi’er doesn’t even notice this herself. This is a stable guard circle. After the five of them stand still, the tourists never come near.

Time is running. The morning market is closed and most of the tourists are gone. New tourists haven’t arrived yet. Li Xi’er and the others become outstanding when the place is less crowded. Let alone their weird and precautious gestures, they are just so eye-catching. With his long bang, Huang Weijian looks like a character in comic books. Lin Luodong is a handsome young gentleman. Mr. Lin is a vigorous middle-aged man. Yuan Ye looks outgoing and Liu Zheng is wearing his Taoist robe. Li Xi’er is not wearing her Tang dress today but ordinary clothes can’t hide her image of ancient beauty. Lin Luoran is still in tranquility. Because of this, her head is lowered and people can’t see her face. Nevertheless, people can imagine how stunning she is, being the center of the group.

They are too outstanding yet unapproachable. The tourists can do nothing but looking at them.

Li Xi’er feels like a circus monkey and she is uncomfortable about this. She stares at those tourists and the tourists just return her with kind smiles.

It’s impolite to take pictures of others without asking for permission. However, no one is taking photos of them today, which relieves Li Xi’er. She doesn’t know that because of Lin Luoran’s tranquil state, ordinary people also feel peaceful in mind.

This is a one and only chance. Li Xi’er knows that she can’t control all of the tourists so she decides to ignore them. She relaxes and focuses on sensing the gold Reiki.

Liu Zheng’s eyes are half-closed. He seems to be calm but he is actually having mixed emotions.

The crazy Taoist told him that Lin Luoran would enter the next level of cultivation and he asked Liu to come and protect her. Liu Zheng is happy for Lin Luoran and sad for himself. Will he ever be able to become equal to her? Liu Zheng sighs. He knows he is greedy. At first, he went such a long way only to get a glimpse of her world. Then he wanted to become strong enough to help her… He already knew that his quality of cultivation was bad and she was a talent. Why does he still feel sad now?

Liu Zheng forgets about his sorrow and all that left in his heart is the happiness for Lin Luoran’s progress.

Then he feels the balance of the five natures around him.

The five of them, as guardians of Lin Luoran, also have gained something of their own.

Sun is going down. The tourists are leaving. Lin Luodong is bored and hungry.

None of them has eaten anything today! When Lin Luodong hesitates about going to the restaurant at the foot of the mountain and ordering dinner for everyone, he sees his sister move.

“Sister, are you awake?”

The others all wake up from the fantastic feeling. They look at Lin Luoran and want to ask if she has entered the next level. Lin Luoran knows what they are thinking about and gives no answer.

“Aren’t you hungry? Let’s go home and have dinner!”

Huang Weijian’s stomach growls at the same time and he is embarrassed.
