Chapter 53: Encounters [1]



"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.

"How does it feel to be a true premier? Wonderful?"

Ju Feng nodded respectfully before he replied.

"Yes, elder Wang."

"I remembered my own too, truly wonderful. You see everything with a different view. You can now use spiritual sight to see many things, including vibrant energy of plants, trees and animals. You can even see the aura of other cultivators if they decided to manifest it or you have higher levels than them. Which brings me to you. It's about your aura. You need to know how to control your auric light. Your aura is getting stronger and brighter everyday. Very soon it will be drawing too much attention to you, mostly evil intended attention because you will be like a beacon of target. To show you what I'm talking about, I will teach how to use spiritual sight. Come."

She gestured towards the other side of the hall that had mats for meditation.

"Sit down and cross your legs in the lotus position, close your eyes. Now withdraw your sight into your consciousness, keep withdrawing it into your consciousness until you see a part of your consciousness that seemed to be watching you back. That's your spiritual sight, let the two merged together, now open your eyes. What do you see?"

Ju Feng who opened his eyes to see the difference, immediately had to cover his eyes. The light coming from the body of elder Cao Wang Xiu was blinding.

"What you are seeing is my aura. I intentionally manifested it so that you can see it. With my full aura, you can easily determine my level of cultivation and strength level. In combat, you don't want to underestimate your opponent or attack blindly because your opponent might be suppressing his or her aura. That means you are dead meat. Your aura too has manifested, Ju Feng and that shows you are a premier which is good. But, with the radiant silver light, your opponent will know that you are a true premier which can be really bad for you. That's why I want to show you how to suppress and control it."contemporary romance

Elder Wang examined Ju Feng and shook her head with a sigh. She remembered her older sister, Lu Xiu, who had wanted to take revenge for their mother but had been killed because her opponent was actually a golden core cultivator who had been suppressing his aura. She wasn't arrogant, but the anger had made her ignorant of combat possibilities.

"Close your eyes and free your mind. Now breathe in and breathe out. Breathe in and hold it. Wait a bit, now let it go and continue like that for a time. Now, when you breathe in, follow the movement of the air into your body until you can see threads of silver light. Now, follow the threads to the source, where the silver threads are coming from. Can you see the source? That's your soul orb. Now let your consciousness merge with your soul. Very good. That is the true you, though still in the beginning form, but can you feel the power? Take it easy, let your awareness cover the silver light. Now draw the silver light to yourself as much as you can until you have few threads left. Very good. Now let your awareness return to your body."

Ju Feng opened his eyes with tears of joy and appreciation in his eyes. He tried to look up but couldn't. His emotion was still getting the best of him.
