29 Spiritual Land (2/2)
”We are almost reaching our destination?”
Fang Yuan bucked up and looked at the sky. The sun was setting and the place was going to be dark soon.
”We have a little bit of time left. Let's go and have a quick look!”
Fang Yuan bit his teeth and went into the bushes with the Flower Fox Ferret.
”Hooo”
The surroundings suddenly started to fog up, causing the visibility to be poor.
”This fog…..something is wrong!”
It was normal for the top of the mountain to be fogged up all year round but this white fog was way too strong.
If he were to go a few steps deeper, he would not be able to see his fingers. Fang Yuan felt a huge feeling of weariness. His eyelids became heavy and he started to close his eyes unconsciously. He then went into a deep sleep.
”Sleep…..sleep…..”
He could hear a voice whispering into his ears and he became in a trance.
”Hold on a second….I shouldn't sleep. If I do sleep, everything will be over….”
Fang Yuan had the magical energy that was beyond a normal human being and it proved its effectiveness. However, it only allowed Fang Yuan to stay alert.
Even though he was aware of his surroundings, he was unable to move his limbs, which made it impossible for him to retreat.
”The hell with it, how does the Flower Fox Ferret make it through here previously if I am like that now?”
Fang Yuan was confused. He then heard noises made by the Flower Fox Ferret and it was getting further away from him.
”Sleep! Sleep….Once you sleep, everything will be alright….”
The weariness got even stronger. Fang Yuan closed and opened his eyes. He shook his head and bit his teeth, ”Damn it…..There is something wrong with the fog!”
He forced himself to sit cross-legged and summon forth his inner power to counter the fog.
Normally, his power from his Dantian was able to defend against any threats. This time, it seemed that his power was useless when dealing with such great power from the fog.
”Go to sleep….go to sleep…..”
The whisper beside his ear became blurred.
Fang Yuan shuddered and a scene appeared in front of his eyes.
A white-haired elder who was dressed in white was sitting beside the spring water and tasting tea. ”My Meditative Tea Ceremony is based on the foundation of trust and respect, breaking away from fate, curbing evil intentions and simplifying matters. Only with these would you have a genuine outlook, peace, and be set on the path to pursue dao.”
”A man of heart is a master of his own body and the lord of the gods. He sits still to achieve wisdom, and the slightest movement would bring upon his downfall. In the land of fantasy, the only truth is: Who would be able to comprehend the falsehood within the sweet promises? They dreamt big and underwent multiple events before they realised that there was more to life and that their hearts had changed. Who would have been aware that it was just a big dream...”
...….
”Master!”
A series of his memories appeared. Fang Yuan then realised he was not drowsy anymore. In fact, he was way more alert than before.
He now could confirm that Master Wenxin was not an ordinary person!
Master Wenxin didn't really pass down anything to him.
The Meditative Tea Ceremony was the only precious gift from him.
”Keke!”
”Keke!”
At that moment, when Fang Yuan looked at the white fog, it was no different from any other mountain fog. The Flower Fox Ferret beside him was getting impatient while waiting. It even dragged a very long banana leaf over and the leaf contained cool spring water.
”Are you alright?”
Fang Yuan suddenly understood what happened. ”Does the mysterious magical power here target only humans? Or is it because the minds of the wild beasts are pure and that's why they are not affected?”
Obviously, the Flower Fox Ferret had been through here quite a few times already but it did not have the same experience as Fang Yuan. If not, it wouldn't have brought Fang Yuan to this place.
”It's been hard on you!”
After understanding this point, Fang Yuan didn't make things difficult for the Flower Fox Ferret and drank the spring water straight from the banana leaf.
”This water….”
The spring water was clear and sweet. The water cooled his body.
Fang Yuan only drank one sip and he felt way better than before.
”Good spring water!”
He started praising the water.
Fang Yuan had drank before many types of spring water but this spring water with such quality was rare.
”Nope, this is not normal spring water. It is definitely spiritual water!”
Fang Yuan's eyes glittered and asked the Flower Fox Ferret, ”Where does this spring water come from?”
”Keke!”
The Flower Fox Ferret stood upright and pointed forward with its claws.
”There again!”
He gave a serious look.
He guessed that the place deep in this fog was probably the source of the mutations that were happening throughout the whole Clear Spirit Mountain. Things like the spiritual fertiliser, spiritual beasts and spiritual water were formed because of that place!
”It seems like I have to go and visit this place….”
Fang Yuan got up and looked determined. ”Spiritual land?”
The spiritual land was formed by heaven's will and created by the gathering of earthly energy. It was filled with all kinds of spiritual plants and plenty of spiritual beasts. It is an excellent piece of fertile and sacred land, and a treasure trove!
