Chapter 503 The Journey Ahead (1/2)

Lei Jing stopped carving and the wooden knife was left in her hand. Shen Lian said softly, ”Jing Er, you can stop now.”

Upon hearing that, her entire body felt relaxed. Fortunately, she did not fall and she spoke with exhaustion, ”looks like you'll still have to complete the process of dotting in the eyes in the end.”

Shen Lian smiled and said, ”I've never said that I'll have to complete this process. You should sleep now. Tomorrow is the Palace's feast, he'll like it when you gift him this sculpture.”

Lei Jing startled and said, ”tomorrow is finally Palace's feast, why does time pass so quickly?”

She thought that only one or two days had passed because previously the period of time when she woke, there had been only the extremes of time that was in her mind. She thought that only one day had passed.

Shen Lian said, ”there was no counting of days for cultivators. It's also normal if a year feels like a day. You should get some rest so that you're able to attend the Palace's feast tomorrow.”

His words seemed to have unlimited magical powers. Even if Lei Jing woke the inheritance, there was an irresistible sleepiness in her after hearing Shen Lian's words. Her body started to weaken and fall and Shen Lian helped her up to the bed.

There was already no more breathing from her mouth or nose and her body instinctively applied the inner breathing. The moonlight from outside circulated and came in that in the end, it entered into her body through all the tiny pores in her body and transformed into a mysterious power. The mysterious power then transformed into a special form which could communicate with the unconventional power which was so strong and ancient that it was impossible to obliterate.

Shen Lian could deeply feel the unconventional power which had natural attraction to his spirits. To be precise, it was deeply attracted to strength of the spirit cultivated through The Mastery of Senses .

Lei Jing had already learnt from Shen Lian and unknowingly she cultivated the true meaning of The Mastery of Senses and thus she coincidentally had the chance to wake the inheritance.

Once reached Shen Lian's stage, even if a Dao restriction was imposed, it would not be able to stop him from resolving parts of the true meaning of The Art of Spiritual Enhancement. Nonetheless, the mysterious relationship between The Art of Spiritual Enhancement and Xia Clan was something that Shen Lian did not expect.

Perhaps this originated from the conflicts between Lingbao Tianzun and Xia Clan, and maybe it involved an ancient secrets from long ago. Shen Lian was filled with curiosity about this.

However, now he was more interested about the Emperor Xia. Because the most that Lei Jing had done was only to wake the inheritance, but the Emperor Xia had already come to the end of this inheritance and he had even open up a new path.

The sculpture made from Kun Wu stone beside him was in silence but it felt as though the Emperor Xia was just right beside him. Shen Lian stared at him deeply, hoping that this Emperor Xia could give him more surprises.

At his stage, any illusion of Dao was not real and not as comparable to the collision between cultivators in reality. Besides, it could also stimulate the sparks of wisdom.

The journey during when Buddha attained Dao, there was resistance from Parinirmita-vaśavartin. This was also another type of challenge.

As for Buddha, the power of Parinirmita-vaśavartin was not crucial. What was really important was that the Demon realm that Parinirmita-vaśavartin had exhibited actually complemented Buddhism, just like Yin and Yang.

Shen Lian's past cultivation experience was actually just more on sharpening his spirit whereas Xia Clan's cultivation was totally opposite. The Emperor Xia had even reached the stage where he was at the same level as Shen Lian, and that was the reason why Shen Lian wanted to stay in Diqiu.

The mercury-like moonlight shone on the Zhiwei Home. Shen Lian stared at Lei Jing who was sleeping soundly and he said softly, ”one day you'll finally realise that your life journey is so long and so difficult, but you'd not want to stop halfway, just like the present me.”

Of course Lei Jing would not be able to hear this but Shen Lian hoped that she would understand in the future.

After all, he had been a teacher for one day and thus, this lifetime relationship was already formed and it was irrelevant to race issues.
