Dual Cultivation God Returns

Chapter 672  Second One...

After adjusting to this feeling, he was able to perceive things more clearly, and suddenly felt something familiar in the ground beneath.

"Is it...?", he whispered under his nose, not sure of his guess, and then immediately decided to test it out.

Far above his head, clouds started forming, swirling above him and he felt that there was a part of his Lightning Rune that reacted to the ground below him, as he could feel the charges in the clouds react with the ones under his feet.

And as soon as it reached a critical point, an invisible current stretched from the clouds that Wu Long summoned with the Lightning, Water and Wind Runes, followed by a small current reaching from the ground, and at the moment they touched, the surroundings lit up as the lightning formed, while Wu Long perceived a new Lightning Rune forming in the ground below, and being attracted to his own.

"The Heaven above Earth, Earth raising Mortal...", he spoke one of the axioms of the Dao Cultivators that he heard numerous times, feeling that he just saw it from a different perspective.

At the same time, he had another realization, as his Lightning Rune absorbed the new one, he could finally understand why the Earth Rune that he tried to perceive for quite a long time was finally in his grasp, as what he actually perceived in the Concept of Annihilation was part of the Concept of Earth, as the lightning of annihilation was turning its target to dust, returning it to the earth.

The reason he so vividly perceived the Earth Rune just now, was that he was so close to the place where this element became highly unstable due to the space distortion, allowing him to briefly peek into the fundamental existence of Earth Element.

It was like something clicked, as if several pieces of a puzzle that previously could not be linked, suddenly perfectly fit together when a missing piece was found, giving rise to a profound realization, and a formless wave of spread from him, raising dust and pushing away the distant grass in one direction, and even disturbing the border between the two world planes.

He could feel everything coming into place, forming an understanding, about the nature of his powers, as enormous amounts of Spiritual Qi formed giant currents, rushing toward him.

Fen Baihu who materialized not far from him again, widened her eyes as the words "S-sudden Enlightenment..." left her lips in a low voice.

She was further stunned when she felt a resonance of Spiritual Qi forming between Wu Long in front of her and Yuanfen who was still in slumber within the Mystic Realm, as the World around seemed to answer that call.

Meanwhile Wu Long did not notice anything around, as he was in a state of light daze, overwhelmed with sudden comprehension. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

A distant disembodied chanting of countless of voices, all sounding in unison and at the same time with different pitches, tones, and volume, with unintelligible words, but strangely beautiful, reached Fen Baihu's ears that stood up on her head, as her tails tucked beneath as a shiver before a completely unknown gripped her.

The chanting crossed over and reverberated throughout the Mystic Realm, as Lian Zhiqiu and Hua Ziyan turned to each other with widening eyes, recognizing it from the last time.

This time Wu Long actively recognized this feeling, as if every thought he had was running incredibly smoothly and he could find any answer that he had the capacity to reach, he only had to think of a problem he could not solve and if the solution was reachable by the combination of logical thinking and his existing knowledge he would instantly reach it.

There was also a very vague feeling of being able to acquire knowledge he did not possess entirely, as if he was in contact with something that held infinite wisdom, but that was a far harder border to breach, and would likely take more of his time in this state, which was limited.

Unlike the last time when he was in a half-dreamy state, operating almost on instinct, he was a bit more awake, though his mind was still murky.

But even that sliver of awareness was phenomenal.

He instantly understood that last time, while in the dream-like instinctual daze, he used far more time trying to attain that knowledge he did not actually possess rather than using this state of clarity to gain insight into problems he could solve with no outside knowledge, only the power of realization.

He also knew at that same moment, that the moment this state of enlightenment passed, the knowledge and comprehensions he gained in it would lose some of their clarity, and that he had to concentrate to not lose track of them, like losing recollection of a dream when waking up.

As he established these two truths, he decided to focus on the more realistic realizations first, rather than chasing bits and pieces of knowledge that were beckoning him, as if from a veil of unknown, only attempting to grasp some of the concepts if he had time.

His enlightenment lasted longer than the previous one, so he still had some time to try and gain knowledge from the unknown source, and eventually as he woke up, his mind stirred, concentrating and holding on to what he gained in that state.

There were parts that he could not retain no matter how hard he tried, and those he vividly held, at this moment realizing that the realizations he made on his own were far easier to retain than the knowledge he gained from the 'infinite wisdom'.

As he was processing all of this, he sat down in a meditative pose, using all of his current mental capacity to digest the comprehensions in order to not lose any of them.

Fen Baihu did not disturb him, quietly sitting in her small fox form in a distance, though like previously, she was not physically here, but with Gong Cui.

What was interesting to her, was that as soon as they heard that chanting, those he shared a bond with entered a similar state of trance, though lasting only a short amount of time, and seemingly less powerful, but that likely still greatly benefited them.

As Wu Long finished his meditation, his eyes opened, a profound light flashing within them for a moment, before being hidden in the depths.

"Haa~", he exhaled and as he stood up, the ground that was already constantly shaking from the healing of the World, began more intensely trembling with a rumbling sound, chunks of landmass rising around him.

'Haha, oh now he's just showing off', Fen Baihu's astonishment and dumfoundedness reached heights where they simply morphed into a feeling of defeat and oversaturation with surprise, a kind of apathy that said that nothing could surprise her anymore. So she just inwardly chuckled shaking her head, giving up on trying to comprehend what was happening anymore.

Though she could perceive a change in him that she could not clearly identify, but was sure present.
