Chapter 18: Law Of Life and Nature [Her Enlightenment]
[Ethereal Small World]
"Before Master practice, Yunyun had realized that the master already had enlightenment." Xiao Yun said it excitedly.
"What is enlightenment?" Huang Ying Yue asked in puzzlement as she hugged Xiao Yun's soft body.
She sat on the soft cotton cushion outside the bamboo house, looking at the floating flowers on the surface of the clear lake. The petals of flamingo peach blossom trees scattered on the lake had an intoxicating fragrance.
She really loved this place. It's good that this place will always follow her and Xiao Yun everywhere they go.
"Enlightenment is the comprehension of knowledge about something related to the immortality path, the law of life, and the rule of nature." Sometimes, the enlightenment can be about martial arts skills, the way to use the elements of nature, or the way that a person comprehends the meaning of life." Xiao Yun sat on Huang Ying Yue's lap, snuggled inside her arms.
Huang Ying Yue moved her hand, and a soft blue blanket appeared. She wrapped the blanket around Xiao Yun's body carefully.
Xiao Yun's heart was sweet as his rainbow-colored pupils flashed with brilliant light.
"Cultivators who have the enlightenment of one of those above will have their cultivation's speed and process be faster. They rarely encounter the bottleneck when practicing, as their strength will leap up to another level." While he was nibbling the spiritual fruit shaped like an apple out of nowhere, he explained.
"The master may have had one or two of the enlightenments. Can the Master define and explain to Yunyun about the Law of Life?"
"The Laws of Life are a collection of principles that help determine our individual moral value systems. Our values are our personal inventory of what we consider most important in life and determine, to a great extent, our character. Our character is defined by what we do, not what we say or believe." She paused.
"This sentence is what I found inside a book a long time ago. To put it specifically, before reading the book, I never knew what the law of life was. I just treat everyone equally. I treat humans, animals, plants, nature, things, dead and living beings impartially."
"As long as that being is good, never do something harmful to the other being. All beings have spirits; it's just that we fail to communicate with those beings."
"Master, what do you think is stronger? Human or animal?" Xiao Yun asked seriously. His rainbow pupils flashed with unknown emotions.
"None of them." She replied calmly, and her eyes flashed with wisdom.
"Then who is it?" He asked.
"Nature!" She said this while looking at the peaceful scenery.
"In terms of intelligence, humans were the most powerful living beings. In terms of strength and power, animals are more powerful. For example..." She paused, then continued as her eyes glowed.
"An unarmed human could not beat a tiger in a fight. Even if a human came upon a sleeping lion, their chances of killing it would be laughably small. Humans aren't going to knock out a tiger with a kick or punch in one shot. A small tiger weighs 140 pounds (63.5 kg). The big ones approach 700 pounds (317.51 kg). A human being, even a trained martial artist, has absolutely no chance against a tiger."
"How do humans defeat the tiger, then?" Xiao Yun was puzzled.
"Here!" She pointed at her head.
"Humans use brains. The brain is the seat of intelligence, an interpreter of the senses, an initiator of body movement, and a controller of behavior." She touched her soft hair and continued, "The intelligence to create the weapons to fight with the tiger and equipment to protect the body. The senses analyze the tiger's weakness."
"Some fish contain enough poison to kill an adult in less than an hour, and not all of them have an antidote. Fish could live under the water, but humans can't. Unless humans use the oxygen tank, Of course, fish can't live on the land."
"This is why, as human beings, we shouldn't look down on or despise other beings. All beings are powerful in their ways." She kneaded Xiao Yun's head lovingly.
"As for why I said that nature is the strongest being, it is because nature created everything. Forests, mountains, rivers, oceans, lands, and soils provide us with the food we eat; the lands provide space to reside; the air we breathe; and the water we irrigate our crops with. The oceans provide food, fuel, energy, medicines, minerals, and building materials. These were what Nature granted to us."
"Without oxygen, how do we breathe? Without a fire, how do we cook? Without the sun and the moon, how do we see through the darkness? Without water, how do we keep a normal temperature and increase energy? Without the land and trees, where do we live and build the shelter to stay?" Huang Ying Yue smiled slowly.
"Without the mercy and kindness of nature, do you think that every being in the world can live? If one planet crashes another planet, if the rain falls heavily forever, if the land cracks, if the air and oxygen are reduced, and if the sky falls, we'll die."
"I'm extremely grateful for nature. That's why I respect every being that nature has created. As the living beings in the world, if we don't respect each other, how do we deserve nature's mercy?" The girl didn't know that; the more she said, the more Xiao Yun showed a stunning, obsessional, and shocking look.
No wonder… No wonder she could accomplish the impossible thing that normal practitioners couldn't do. It's true that the treasures were the parts that made her advance faster; she almost liked drinking the water, but her profound enlightenment was the most important part too.
"By the way, Yunyun, if I advance so fast, will my foundation be damaged and unstable?" She asked in concern as she took a bottle of spiritual water to drink to soothe her sore throat.
The water tasted sweet. She pondered; she was planning to make the spiritual juice using this clean waterfall.
"Don't worry, Master. Master didn't forcibly practice or use any forbidden techniques, but through your effort, your foundation won't be damaged. You just have to have a real battle with as many beasts or humans as you can to stabilize the foundation." Xiao Yun touched his chin.
"The most important thing is to choose a suitable weapon and martial art skills that match your spiritual root." Xiao Yun smiled as he swayed his foxtail.
Huang Ying Yue nodded. She was also planning to go find someone to fight with. But then she rubbed her head in pain.
Who would fight with her, the well-known vicious and lustful Third Miss of the Huang Family in the Outer Domain? She could only go to the mountain to experience it and find the beasts to experience her combat.
"Yunyun, how can I hide my cultivation?" Huang Ying Yue asked. Her strength was too high now for the current her. Who doesn't know that 'Huang Ying Yue' was extremely lazy and never practiced seriously? Her strength was just the 7th stage of the Qi Condensation.
"Wait a minute, Master." Xiao Yun disappeared and teleported to the bamboo house that stored the tools.
Five minutes later, he appeared in front of her while holding a bracelet.
"This is the ancient artifact that Yunyun got from the forbidden place on the upper continent. It could hide the master's real strength." Xiao Yun handed her an exquisite purple bracelet.
Huang Ying Yue looked at the bracelet carefully. The bracelet is carved with green leaf vines and tiny, shining red diamonds. The body of the bracelet was smooth, like jade. There was a shining purple light wrapped around the bracelet.
"If only this could be more low-key, so my wrist wouldn't be cut off." She liked holding a hot potato. Who would walk around the street and wear the shining artifact tool? Is this to tell people that she has a valuable thing?
The hot potato:….Please stop mentioning me.
