Unrivaled Comprehension: From Mortal to Immortal King

Chapter 21: Chapter 21: The Golden Lotus in the Sea of Suffering



Yuhua Sect. In the Scripture Pavilion, Lin Jiufeng sat quietly reading a book.

Time in the martial world flies quickly, and exciting news, after being spread for some time, eventually fades away. The grudge between Yuhua Sect and Taishang Dao, Bai Yunfei's heroic defeat of the eighth-level Daoist ancestor, and all these discussions were no longer being talked about.

The cultivation world had once again returned to peace.

However, recently, many people had come to observe Yuhua Sect, wanting to know what their next step would be after repelling Taishang Dao. Soon, they discovered that Yuhua Sect, as before, had sealed the mountain and closed the gates, refusing to accept visitors or recruit disciples to expand the sect, as if nothing had happened with Taishang Dao.

Many people didn't understand this, but the people within Yuhua Sect didn't come out to explain, and over time, fewer people came to investigate.

Lin Jiufeng had long since stopped caring about the outside world's rumors. His only concern was Taishang Dao, but at present, there was no good solution. He could only continue cultivating, accumulating enough power to face the unknown risks.

The Scripture Pavilion remained as quiet as ever.

The three young disciples were scattered in different places, cultivating. Whenever they had questions or were confused, they would come to ask Lin Jiufeng. During other times, they diligently studied on their own.

Lin Jiufeng was content with this.

He brewed a pot of tea, picked up a book, and quietly read.

The fragrance of tea wafted in the air, with sandalwood scent surrounding his nose and the fragrance of books filling his heart.

Wearing a white Daoist robe, Lin Jiufeng sat by the window, flipping through the scroll in his hand with calm ease. He seemed to merge with the Scripture Pavilion, his aura seamlessly connecting with the surroundings.

Outside the window, the grass and trees grew freely, lush and green. The towering ancient trees swayed, making a rustling sound.

Everything combined to create a peaceful atmosphere, as if time itself was at rest.

This was his aura. Even unconsciously, it affected everything around him.

Lin Jiufeng's mindset was calm, and everything around him seemed so serene.

If Lin Jiufeng were to glare, everything around him would instantly turn agitated.

After finishing one book, Lin Jiufeng gently set it down and gazed out the window, murmuring, "It's been two months since that battle."

In these two months, he had been traveling back and forth between the Scripture Pavilion and the Small World.

Reading, comprehending the Dao, cultivating his mind, practicing calligraphy…

The wind and rain did not change his routine.

He felt that his accumulation had become very deep. Since his last insight into his primordial spirit, there had been no further progress.

During this time, he had also tried to explore the celestial treasure hidden in his primordial spirit, but each time he felt that something was missing, and he had failed.

Lin Jiufeng had experienced such setbacks before. He knew that this was something that could not be rushed. He had to accumulate slowly and wait for that moment of enlightenment. By then, he would have enough foundation to break through.

Now, two months had passed, and his cultivation and accumulation were already on the verge of breaking through.

In the sixth restriction, he could confidently say that he was invincible.

But it was still just a little bit off.

Lin Jiufeng sighed, "I wonder what kind of plot Taishang Dao is preparing?"

In the past two months, there had been no movement from Bai Yunfei's side. He was still quietly breaking through.

Lin Jiufeng did not disturb him.

He continued reading and accumulating.

The day passed quickly, and as night fell, thunder rumbled in the sky above Yuhua Sect.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Dark clouds gathered, and a wild wind swept through, the thunder reverberating through the heavens and earth, with lightning darting across the clouds, looking quite fierce.

Lin Jiufeng, dressed in white robes, stood under the eaves, watching this scene, murmuring, "It's going to rain."

He saw Wen Xinyun, Zhou Tianzi, and Yue Dashan all rushing back, standing with him under the eaves.

"Master Uncle, judging by the signs, it's going to rain heavily tonight," Wen Xinyun said.

"Yeah, it's been a while since it last rained," Lin Jiufeng nodded in agreement.

Crack!

Just as he finished speaking, a bolt of lightning struck directly down, hitting the ground in front of the Scripture Pavilion, as if splitting the heavens and earth, resembling the wrath of a god. It was terrifying.

Drip! Drip! Drip!

The next moment, rain began to fall, landing on the tiles in front of the Scripture Pavilion, producing a crisp sound.

A few drops of rain parted the heavens, and in the next second, a torrential downpour accompanied by a fierce wind began to pour down.

With thunder and lightning, the world was being washed.

Lin Jiufeng and the others looked up, watching as in just a short time, the eaves, the corridor, and the forest were all covered in rainwater.

"This rain is so heavy," Zhou Tianzi sighed.

"This world is a bit dirty, just in time for the rain to clean it up," Yue Dashan said in his honest manner.

"Wen Xinyun, go and bring my tea set out. With this heavy rain tonight, listening to the rain and tasting tea will be a pleasant experience," Lin Jiufeng said thoughtfully.

Wen Xinyun's beautiful eyes lit up. She liked the idea of listening to the rain and tasting tea, so she quickly entered the Scripture Pavilion to bring out Lin Jiufeng's tea set, then diligently cleaned the tea set and brewed the tea.

"Master Uncle, I'll accompany you," Wen Xinyun said happily.

"Take me along too, this kind of refined enjoyment isn't available all the time," Zhou Tianzi said with a hearty laugh, bringing over a few chairs and setting them up in the corridor.

"Take me along as well, I'll go light the candles," Yue Dashan said with a foolish grin, pulling out a lantern and candles. The soft, yellow light of the lantern flickered, casting long shadows of the group. A cool breeze blew, causing the lantern to sway, and the shadows moved accordingly.

Lin Jiufeng teased Yue Dashan, "You always chew tea leaves like a cow. Now you're learning to taste tea?"

Yue Dashan sighed, "I never paid much attention to tea before, but in this scene tonight, drinking tea really touches my heart."

Lin Jiufeng smiled and skillfully poured a cup of tea for everyone. He didn't say anything, simply holding the tea, quietly listening to the rain and observing it.

Outside, the thunder rumbled, and the wind and rain were fierce.

In the corridor, Lin Jiufeng and the three young disciples sat quietly, listening to the rain and drinking tea, completely at ease.

Lin Jiufeng took a sip of tea, then gazed at the heavy rain.

He was appreciating the world in this downpour.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The thunder kept resonating, asserting its presence in the darkness. Lin Jiufeng watched, gradually entering a trance.

He saw this heavy rain not just as a rainstorm.

He saw rivers breaking open mountains.

He saw waterfalls cascading down from the heavens.

He saw streams of clear water flowing gently.

He saw vast oceans that embraced all rivers.

He also saw the unpredictable, turbulent journey of life.

As he continued watching, a line of words appeared before Lin Jiufeng's eyes.

"You have gained insight from watching the rain, activating your extraordinary comprehension, and comprehending the Golden Lotus in the Sea of Suffering."

In the next moment, within Lin Jiufeng's primordial spirit world, a vast ocean began to roll, directly splitting his sea of consciousness.

His primordial spirit, carrying the stars of the heavens, was high above, while a golden lotus emerged from the rolling ocean.

The Golden Lotus in the Sea of Suffering—this was the celestial treasure that Lin Jiufeng unearthed from his primordial spirit world.

At this moment, Lin Jiufeng's fortune reached its peak. The seventh restriction, which had always troubled him, cracked with a snap.

Immediately following that, the energy accumulated over the past two months surged forward, crashing through.

The barrier that had been bothering him for so long was broken by a storm.

He broke through the sixth restriction.

He entered the seventh restriction!
