nThat was the spirituality of Mount Longhu.

n

n

nTo make it simple, the small world in Mount Longhu had given birth to a tint of consciousness.

n

n

nIt has a muddled consciousness like a baby.

n

n

nBut it has not yet possessed a complete thought.

n

n

nThe reason for Mount Longhu had spirituality.

n

n

nIt was crucially related to the purpose of the Celestial Master’s Mansion.

n

n

nThe Celestial Master’s Mansion was established in Mount Longhu for more than thousands of years.

n

n

nCountless Daoists practiced devoutly in Mount Longhu during these thousands of years.

n

n

nThe daily call to spiritual life and the four seasons in every year.

n

n

nChanting of scriptures and discussion about Dao.

n

n

nCultivation of the body and mind.

n

n

nPreaching the Dao and discussion about martial arts.

n

n

nThe Daoists’ understanding of Heaven and Earth was all imprinted in Mount Longhu.

n

n

nAnd thousands of endless tourists.

n

n

nWith devout and reverent hearts.

n

n

nMany came to Mount Longhu with countless wishes when they prayed for the Celestial Master’s blessing.

n

n

nCountless thoughts converged in the space and time of history.

n

n

nAnd the weak but deeply moving spiritual nature was naturally born.

n

n

nIt was because of such spiritual nature.

n

n

nThat Mount Longhu could become the first ancestral court of Daoism.

n

n

nThat it attracted countless tourists.

n

n

nOne could feel an extraordinary feeling of inaction and mystery as long as they stepped into Mount Longhu.

n

n

nIt could instantly relax the body and mind of the tourists as if they had detached from the world.

n

n

nIt could wash away the tiredness in the mortal world.

n

n

nThe Shaolin Temple had a similar feeling.

n

n

nBut it was far inferior from Mount Longhu.

n

n

nFirst, the Shaolin Temple had only been established for over a thousand years, and it could not compare to the Celestial Master’s Mansion, which had been rooted in Mount Longhu for thousands of years in terms of time.

n

n

nSecond, the Buddhist ideology emphasized that all four realms were empty, and the body was just a bag. One needed to get rid of the sea of bitterness to become a Buddha.

n

n

nThat was contrary to the thoughts of most ordinary people.

n

n

nThey lived in the secular world, and naturally, many things were difficult to let go of.

n

n

nNot to mention fame and fortune, even family ties were difficult to let go. So how could they escape into Buddhism?

n

n

nOnly a few people who had seen through the secular world could achieve the goal of the four realms being empty and wholeheartedly bowing to Buddha.

n

n

nBut the Daoist thought was different. It was natural to do nothing and let nature take its course.

n

n

nTherefore, what he felt at Mount Longhu were peace and relaxation.

n

n

nAnd Lin Qi felt that spirituality when he stepped into Mount Longhu.

n

n

nIt felt different from other tourists.

n

n

nHe had reached the stage where his soul manifested, and his spiritual energy could be released and entrusted to the void.

n

n

nHe released his spiritual energy, encompassing Mount Longhu after feeling the spirituality.

n

n

nThe spirituality did not repel Lin Qi’s spiritual energy. On the contrary, it was happy.

n

n

nIt was like a baby facing an adult who was playing with him. It was happy in its heart and could not stop laughing.

n

n

nAnd Lin Qi naturally could feel all the emotions in Mount Longhu as communicated with this spirituality!

n

n

nThat was right, emotions.

n

n

nThere was a saying that humans were not as heartless as plants!

n

n

nBut at this moment, Lin Qi realized.

n

n

nPlants also had feelings.

n

n

nEven rocks had feelings.

n

n

nThat was the consciousness of all things.

n

n

nHe could feel that the weeds were extremely happy because of the spring rain.

n

n

nHe could feel that the fish in a small stream in Mount Longhu were swimming freely in the water, and it was extremely comfortable.

n

n

nThere was an ancient sage who once said, “No one would know how the fish felt without being them.”

n

n

nAt that moment, Lin Qi truly felt the pleasure of the fish.

n

n

nCountless emotions interweaved together.

n

n

nIt made Lin Qi understand the pleasure of Heaven and Earth.

n

n

nHe would not have experienced such feelings if he had not already stepped into the Spiritual Saint Manifestation Realm.

n

n

nWhat was even more valuable was that this spirituality had not yet given birth to its consciousness.

n

n

nIt was equivalent to a gold mine that had yet been explored.

n

n

nAnd Lin Qi had discovered this gold mine.

n

n

nLin Qi felt that his realm had begun to slightly circulate after only communicating with this spirituality for a short while.

n

n

nOne had to know that he was already in the Spiritual Saint Manifestation Realm, surpassing the realm that could appear in this world.

n

n

nThe level of this world had been brought up because of Lin Qi’s existence.

n

n

nHe was the first person in this world who was in the Spiritual Saint Manifestation Realm.

n

n

nOne gave birth to two, two gave birth to three, and three gave birth to all living things.

n

n

nFrom now on, there would be new people who could be in the Spiritual Saint Manifestation Realm.

n

n

nAnd before that, the path of martial arts in this world was only achieved until the Earth Immortal.

n

n

nIt was also because of such a reason that there was no existence of spiritual manifestation in this world before. Although Lin Qi had made a breakthrough, he was still confused about the subsequent cultivation.

n

n

nAlthough he knew that Spiritual Saint Manifestation Realm focused on the strengthening of the spiritual energy, he did not know the way to do so.

n

n

nHe was crossing the river by touching the rock.

n

n

nBut, his spiritual energy was slowly circulating at the moment. In other words, the pure natural spirituality of Mount Longhu could enhance Lin Qi’s spiritual energy.

n

n

nHe never expected that an unintentional thought would give him a glimpse of the cultivation path of Spiritual Saint Manifestation.

n

n

n“I’ll take it if that’s the case.”

n

n

nLin Qi took in all the invisible spirituality and refined it!

n

n

nWhen Lin Qi approached the front gate of the Celestial Master’s mansion step by step.

n

n

nThe aura on his body kept rising.

n

n

nBut it was not as overbearing and majestic as when he was in Shaolin.

n

n

nIt was a state of inaction and naturalness.

n

n

nHe and Mount Longhu had perfectly fused.

n

n

nAt that moment.

n

n

nImages of thousands of years of Mount Longhu flashed through Lin Qi’s mind.

n

n

nDaoists worked at sunrise and rested at sunset.

n

n

nThey chanted scriptures, chanted Daoism, practiced martial arts, and cultivated.

n

n

nDaoist scriptures appeared in his mind one after another.

n

n

nLin Qi did not need to study them.

n

n

nThe understanding of Daoist scriptures that these Daoists had for thousands of years had engraved into Lin Qi’s memory.

n

n

nThat allowed Lin Qi to skip the process of learning Daoism for countless years.

n

n

nHis foundational cultivation method, the Scripture of the Thunder Monarch, was a Daoist cultivation method.

n

n

nTherefore, Lin Qi’s spiritual realm circulated once again, and it improved a little compared to before after gaining an understanding of these Daoist scriptures.

n

n

nLin Qi still preferred Daoism compared to Buddhism.

n

n

nThe thought of Daoism was more in line with Lin Qi’s understanding of the world and all things.

n

n

nAt that moment, Lin Qi’s understanding of Daoist scriptures might be the best in the entire Dragon Country.

n

n

nIf Lin Qi chose to bring the spirituality of Mount Longhu to the origin world instead of refining it…

n

n

nIt would make the reincarnators of the origin world go crazy.

n

n

nEspecially reincarnators, who chose to cultivate immortality and cultivate Dao.

n

n

nSuch natural, pure and uninteresting spirituality in Mount Longhu was simply a great tonic to them.

n

n

nIt could promote their cultivation.

n

n

nOf course, they would be pissed off on the spot if they saw Lin Qi refining it so casually.

n

n

nThey would curse. Lin Qi was a wastrel, wasting such good resources so much.

n

n

nLin Qi’s methods of refining and absorbing the spirit were too crude. He could only absorb a small part of it just like that.

n

n

nIt was like a high-quality ingredient, but Lin Qi chose to take it in raw.

n

n

nThey would have many ways to refine and absorb it, which could promote their realm in minutes.

n

n

nIt was difficult for them to obtain spirituality like this.

n

n

nEveryone would fight for it once it was discovered.

n

n

nEven if it were a newly born spirituality, one would immediately take it as long as they saw it.

n

n

nAnd spirituality would give birth to consciousness if it continued to grow. The mountains and rivers had spirituality, which was what mortals called the mountain gods. It was difficult to absorb them.

n

n

nLin Qi was lucky to meet such spirituality in this world.

n

n

nLin Qi didn’t think much about it. He casually refined the spirituality since it was beneficial to him.
