Chapter 132: Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light (I) (1/2)
Note: Most two characters first names will form a single english word, so long as the final name formed sounds natural, i.e. 龙皓晨 is Long Haochen instead of Long Hao Chen, at least for now. Explanation: this is a more professional translation, in accordance to english translation standards for Chinese names. It’s in no way out of laziness, but as an attempt to improve the translation further.
Chapter 132: Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light (I)
That pure essence? Although the undulations were only present in low quantity, relying on his fabulous perception, he could immediately find out the path they led to.
The forks in the road before him led to a total of ten paths, and the one which contained that pure essence was the third one from the left.
Without further hesitation, Long Haochen stood up and took big strides towards the third path, and advanced from there.
It took him less than a hundred meters to walk into this fork. Then, the previous feeling he had emerged once again. That’s right, it’s precisely in this direction! Long Haochen thought to himself, What rich fluctuations of light essence! What I am searching for will definitely be there.
For a moment, he kept advancing. But some time after taking the fork, suddenly, a fantastic gate of light appeared in front of him.
This gate of light was completely different from the one that brought him here; comparatively, it was a lot smaller. With a height of two meters, a width of a meter, it had an oval shape and its edges were water-blue-colored. It released some faint gold-colored rings from the inside, and its sides were blue-colored.
This is…
Could it be that I have to step into this gate of light? Long Haochen stopped advancing.
Standing before this gate of light, he could immediately feel that the previous fluctuations of light essence were coming from within it. However, rather than being continuously released, they appeared occasionally and without basis.
In his capacity as Scion of Light, Long Haochen’s affinity with the light element was naturally at the greatest possible level. And it is not only the affinity he has with the light element, but also the one the light element has with him. As long as he could feel the existence of light element somewhere, he would unconsciously feel completely safe in this place.
After an instant of hesitation, Long Haochen took a deep breath, and finally took a step forward, entering the gate of light.
This time, he didn’t feel any indisposition, but his surroundings turned into soft specks of light, dazzling all around. Feeling a firm sensation of security, in the next instant, he felt that this illusory scene turned real.
This was a cave. There were strange rocks in the surroundings. After taking a step in, Long Haochen only felt that he returned to the real world and his silhouette immediately seemed illusory.
A blue and a golden light suddenly shone, illuminating the entire cave.
The blue one seemed like a boundless ocean, brimming with blue, sparkling colored beauty.
The golden one looked like the sun at dawn: it was warm, bright, filled with life, but didn’t hurt the eye. It was an exuberant life force, driving away the darkness with its light.
This is…
Long Haochen was bewildered by this sight right away. These two pure colors were so beautiful, so mesmerizing that he was completely immersed within it. It was especially the case for that gold color: when he saw it, it felt like he returned to the time when his father helped him to complete his divine awakening. The liquid spiritual energy within him automatically agitated, making his body flicker.
His entrance apparently scared both the blue and gold color in this cave brimming full of them, and the two lights simultaneously stopped. The feelings they transmitted to Long Haochen were entirely different.
The blue light probed him with crystals, but the gold light after a short period of time gave off a strong sensation of familiarity, suddenly moving towards Long Haochen.
Long Haochen didn’t do anything. He stood there in silence. The gold light threw itself at him. When his body became enveloped in gold light, he felt a warm sensation in his entire body. The spiritual energy within him revolved faster, unable to be stopped.
Although he couldn’t see the entire surrounding as there was only gold color before his eyes, the intense sensation of familiarity made Long Haochen completely satisfied.
He could feel the essence of this light, its inexhaustible purity, as he was completely immersed in it.
Long Haochen’s body, wrapped in this golden cover, started to emerge gradually, letting this golden radiance pass through him, entering his body and spiralling.
If anyone could see this scene, he would immediately be astonished.
[Brilliant Body], the formidable signature ability belonging to knights of the seventh step. The embodiment of light, and the fusion with light.
Long Haochen was currently only at the fifth step, and had just broken through recently. But still, he accomplished it. In normal circumstances, even for a complete [Brilliant Body], the external holy energy couldn’t so easily pass through the body. However, he still managed to accomplish this feat.
This was precisely caused by the Scion of Light’s physique and its affinity toward light, giving him the complete obedience of the light essence. And this light essence considers him as the holy master, regarding him as the holy god. Friendly and gentle, filled with inexhaustible affection.
After a long time, this bright light finally retreated. Long Haochen’s body finally came back to normal. However, at this very moment, a feeling of danger arose in him.
