Chapter 552 The Tes (1/2)
Another day had passed, the young lad did not understand why he would be kneeling down, however, he could not stand up anymore.
He wanted to move, but he realized that he had lost the ability to do so.
Later on, he lost in his thoughts. He was not aware of how much time had passed and when he opened his eyes, he was soaking in warm spring water. There was a warm current flowing in his entire body.
At the same time, he felt that his face was very sticky. What came into his sight was a long red tongue sticking out from a gigantic mouth.
The tongue retreated back into the big mouth which closed. He witnessed a black tiger's head. At this moment, his mind had gone blank. He was not even afraid and he only dazed.
”You're awake. Get dressed and come with me,” the black tiger could speak like human beings and his voice sounded like the strike of precious metals and it wasn't really scary.
The young lad gradually recovered and he finally remembered that he came all the way here to look for the celestial teacher in the Qing Xuan Cave to pursue Dao and there was a black tiger beside the Celestial Teacher. He was filled with joy when he could recall things. Finally, he was going to meet the celestial teacher. Hence, he carefully got dressed and realized that the water in the puddle where he was lying in had turned black and it even stank.
As for his body, he felt way lighter. When he walked, he felt as though he was about to fly.
The black tiger was waiting for him and it snorted. Thus, the young lad quickly followed behind it. After a few rounds and turns, they entered a well-illuminated stone room.
This time, he discovered a strange thing. There was no torch or any source of light in this cave, but it looked as bright as daytime, especially the stone room which was brightly lit.
The first time he met the Celestial Teacher, he looked almost alike to the portrait in the temple. The only difference now was that the Celestial Teacher right in front of him was alive.
The young lad simply kneeled down and said, ”Guzhu is here to pay a visit to the celestial teacher.”
”Why are you here for?” Shen Lian's voice was not loud but it reached directly to the heart.
Guzu said, ”I'm here to pursue Dao.”
”I do have 'Dao' here but unfortunately, there's no 'Dao' of yours,” Shen Lian seemed to be slightly apathetic and he looked cold.
Guzu hesitated for a second and continued saying, ”I want to be someone like the Celestial Teacher and I desire for the 'Dao' like yours.”
”You're not pursuing Dao, but dharma. I only have one type of Dao here, but there's a variety of dharma. I can't pass on my Dao to you but you can have two types of dharma since you've been kneeling down here for two days and two nights. But once you get the dharma, you should leave here,” Shen Lian said.
He pointed his fingertip at Guzu and there was a turbid current surrounding his fingertip that went into Guzu's glabella in the end. Later, Guzu felt that he was in a vast space and he had spotted many Celestial Teachers. Some of them could swallow the wind and kiss the rain, some could shoulder the mountains and chase after the moon. There were some who were as fast as lightning and some who could perform Bean-Soldiers Transfiguration. All the techniques and supernatural power that he could imagine were all presented right in front of him and there was also a lot of those which he could not have imagined.
Guzu was dazzled by the sight of these but he soon realised that the countless Celestial Teachers assembled together to form light spots which were flying towards him. He hesitated for a second but he did not grab the light spots which were passing by him.
The light spots which were transformed from the Celestial Teachers became more and more. Gradually, he could not see the Celestial Teacher who had the supernatural power to shoulder the mountains and chase after the moon. He also did not know the Celestial Teacher which was represented by each of the light spots. He got anxious and randomly grabbed two light spots.
These two were magical techniques whereby one was the Golden Touch and another one was the Five Elements Fleeing Method.
