Chapter 53: Encounters [1] (1/2)

”The radiance of light contained the eternal qualities of wholeness, purity, wisdom, courage and love. When you strive to nurture these things in you, the light within you is on its way of becoming one with nature and thereby becoming one with creation. This is the true way of light affinity cultivators to achieve eternity. This is immortality ascension. It's totally different from martial combat. When you have the radiance of light in you, it means you are light element affiliated. It means you have the capacity to call on the power of light. For martial combat, you will still need a martial technique. It's through these martial techniques that you can display the various manifestation of the power of light element.”

Elder Cao Wang Xiu halted her lecture, walked to the side of the hall and turned her head to gaze at them.

”Do you remember the radiant light I showed you when I first began to teach you? That was called Glory of Heaven. It was part of a martial technique that belongs to the elders of the house of light. The strength level of your cultivation will determine the strength level of your light element manifestation and it will be difficult for you to master a martial technique without a good level of cultivation. Although, your physical body can only manifest a little amount of element affinity, that little amount is highly significant.”

Elder Wang Xiu raised one finger as she continued to watch her disciples.

”Don't get me wrong. The nascent soul or weapon still remain the best way to fully manifest the affiliated element. But, both still rely on the on the cultivation strength of a martial artist. The level of your cultivation dictates how strong your nascent soul will be. Same with your weapon, your level of strength will determine how strongly you bring out the power of your weapon.”

She clapped her hands together making a thunderous sound jolting the disciples back to the reality.

”There are three things I have mentioned that made a cultivator. First one is element affinity and in our case is the light element. The second one is cultivation. And the third one is technique. Remember this clearly, the road to eternity is a difficult one. Even with all these, you will need luck. The least you can do, is to be adept in all these areas. I will see you the day after tomorrow. Study and practice well. Till then.”

She turned to Ju Feng who was about to leave with Chenric and Da Xia.

”Ju Feng. Wait behind.”

Ju Feng who was fretfully confounded, stared around the hall to confirm he heard correctly and the stares he received from others confirmed it. He was the only one bearing the name among the new disciples of the house of light anyway. He patiently waited until everyone had left remaining only him and elder Wang Xiu.

”Don't worry, you are not in trouble of any kind. If that will ease your mind.”

Elder Wang Xiu with a smirk on her face, inspected Ju Feng.
