Chapter 256: Visualizing The Huge Sun

“Don’t worry, Elder Wei. I won’t give up. Let’s forget about the Heaven and Earth Furnace. Can you teach me the Heaven and Earth Visualization and Rivers and Mountains Visualization?”

“Sure, come here.”

Seeing that Lin Yao did not turn to leave, Elder Wei happily led the way into a… high-tech room.

Yes, this room looked high-tech. It was not the simple meditation room that Lin Yao had imagined. There were pictures of heaven and earth hanging in it. A sci-fi room full of screens had appeared in front of Lin Yao. Elder Wei then handed a pair of VR glasses to him, signaling for him to put them on.

After putting them on, Lin Yao was dumbfounded when he noticed that the function of the VR glasses was very simple. They could not play videos, and their only function… was to display a satellite map!

‘This is not the transmission room that I had in mind!’

Lin Yao’s mood shifted up and down. After Elder Wei connected to the military’s Skynet via a series of passwords, Lin Yao found that he could watch the mountains and rivers of China through the VR glasses. Due to the development of technology, the satellite’s camera was very clear. Lin Yao even had an immersive feeling while watching the wonderful mountains and peaks through the VR glasses.

It was just that he had no intention of cultivating at all now. He was confused by the Heaven and Earth Dojo’s method of practicing Heaven and Earth Visualization through the VR glasses.

After a long while, his mood calmed down a little bit. Then, instead of visualizing China’s myriad of miles of rivers and mountains, he clicked on the sun column, wanting to look at the sun in space through the satellites.

The Heaven and Earth Dojo had a lot of authority. As Lin Yao clicked on his selection, his VR glasses suddenly changed. He saw a huge fireball that occupied his entire field of vision. It was said that one would feel broad-minded when looking at the sea. However, the vast ocean could not compare to the starry sky and the huge sun.

Lin Yao was able to observe the sun at close range through the satellite near the sun. He was completely shocked by the imposing and gigantic sun. His mind and consciousness were completely attracted by the huge sun.

While he was in awe, the Celestial Tree in his Sea of Consciousness suddenly swayed.

Although the holy light of the Celestial Tree was not pure sunlight, sunlight was the source of light. When Lin Yao stared directly at the source of light, his Celestial Tree could not help but tremble, the branches and leaves rustled, and strange changes were observed on the tree. At the same time, these changes were also reflected in Lin Yao’s body. The most conspicuous change was the sun pattern on his chest. The pattern seemed to be burning, as it bloomed with a bright light.

Lin Yao did not pay attention to the surroundings at all. All his consciousness was attracted and shrouded by the vastness of the sun. He could not tear his eyes away from it.

“Ah Yao, I suggest you choose Mount Taishan instead. Although by visualizing Mount Everest and turning it into Mount Buzhou, you will be able to obtain the divine abilities that lead to heaven, only one person has managed to do this. That is more difficult than turning Mount Taishan into a ladder for humans and gods…”

Elder Wei was talking, but he soon noticed the changes in Lin Yao and stopped abruptly.

“H… Heaven-and-Human Oneness!”

Yes, this was Heaven-and-Human Oneness or an epiphany. Lin Yao did not activate the talents provided by the Bodhi Tree to forcibly merge with heaven and earth. Instead, after looking at the sun at a close distance, he was shocked, and his body and mind were attracted by the sun. He began to merge with heaven and earth, or rather with the sun, and was in the process of comprehending the laws of the sun.

As for why being in harmony with the sun was also called Heaven-and-Human Oneness, it was because “heaven and earth” encompassed everything in the universe. The sun and the moon were considered part of heaven and earth. The epiphany opportunity that people had was also a part of heaven and earth. The water conception, the earth conception, as well as the sun conception that Lin Yao was comprehending now, were part of heaven and earth. Therefore, an epiphany was collectively called Heaven-and-Human Oneness.

This was an opportunity highly sought after by everyone, and it was also Lin Yao’s first real epiphany.

However, Elder Wei was clueless. He only knew that Lin Yao had experienced an epiphany yesterday, and this was his second one. He had achieved Heaven-and-Human Oneness for two consecutive days. His talent must be very powerful, and he could even be hailed as the son of God.

Right now, Elder Wei was shaking with excitement. All the techniques of the Heaven and Earth Dojo were centered around Heaven-and-Human Oneness. No one in the past had been able to maintain long-term harmony with heaven and earth. This was why the dojo’s techniques had turned out to be unusable, like the dragon-slaying technique. Now, he had the feeling that there was hope that someone could successfully master these powerful techniques.

‘The Heaven and Earth Dojo is not lying. One can master these techniques. Ha ha ha, we will rise to power soon!’

Elder Wei was pleasantly surprised. He watched Lin Yao as if he was looking at the most beautiful treasure in the world, cherishing and pampering him.

Elder Wei kept his joy and excitement to himself. Although he wanted to shout out in joy, he resisted because he was afraid that he would interfere with Lin Yao’s epiphany.

Lin Yao naturally had no idea that Elder Wei was excited. He was totally attracted by the sun, and he felt as if he had turned into a bright sun himself.

Just as Lin Yao’s body and mind seemed to merge with the huge sun, the three sacred trees that merged with its soul also underwent drastic changes and started burning.

There was a raging fire on the three sacred trees. However, if one looked closely, one could tell that the three sacred trees were burning at different degrees. There was just a small fire on the Tree of Heaven Punishment and the Bodhi Tree, while the Celestial Tree had turned from a golden white tree of light to a tree of fire.

Fire raged on the Celestial Tree, causing drastic changes to it. In fact, the Virtues on the Celestial Tree had also been transformed.

The violent changes lasted a long time. One’s epiphany was also related to one’s foundation. If one had a deeper understanding of the light and the sun, the duration of the epiphany would be longer and one would gain more from it.

Although it had not been long since Lin Yao’s Bodhi Tree had been enlightened, he now had a deeper understanding of the sun. At the same time, the Bodhi Tree also exuded an inexplicable Taoist aura, which made Lin Yao’s epiphany last longer.

Because of this, Lin Yao’s first epiphany lasted for a full minute, which was very shocking. Elder Wei almost fainted out of excitement.

“Genius! The greatest genius!”

During the one-minute-long epiphany, countless sun rays were drawn by Lin Yao.

Unfortunately, the surrounding walls blocked the entry of light energy.

Upon noticing this, Elder Wei first shielded Lin Yao’s ears and the various equipment and then waved his hand without hesitation, removing the four walls and ceiling of the dojo to expose Lin Yao to the sun.

The endless sunlight was drawn to Lin Yao, and the last beam of light that pierced the sky enveloped Lin Yao.

This sudden change even drew the attention of some of the masters in Shanghai. They shifted their attention away from the spirit energy tide to Lin Yao.

Of course, Elder Wei had blocked them from seeing Lin Yao.

The disciples of the Heaven and Earth Dojo naturally noticed the sudden arrival of the sun rays and the collapse of the house. These people were upset that Lin Yao, who had just joined them, could go straight to the core area of the dojo, especially when some of them knew that Lin Yao would not join the dojo and hence felt that this was unfair treatment.

‘Why is an outsider allowed to comprehend our supreme techniques, while we aren’t allowed to?’

Many people had this thought. However, when they saw the converging lights, they understood that Lin Yao was the reason behind them.

“Did he launch an attack?”

“What a fool! This is an epiphany. Someone is being enlightened.”

As society developed, in combination with the arrival of the Internet, the only benefit was that netizens were more knowledgeable. Although many netizens had not experienced an epiphany, and it was rare for someone to encounter it, they had read about many such experiences on the Internet.

An epiphany was like winning the lottery. It was the fastest way for a person to move beyond the ranks. Naturally, countless people had watched videos of people having epiphanies with the hope that they would be one of them. Therefore, everyone could tell that Lin Yao was experiencing an epiphany.

While they were envious and jealous, they were also no longer upset and resentful as far as he was concerned.

He was an extraordinary genius who deserved to get such special treatment from the dojo.

Yan Yu’er and the other girls were the happiest among them. They were bound to Lin Yao, and they naturally hoped that Lin Yao would become stronger. That way, they would have a higher status as well. Among them, Qin Ya was the only one who had mixed feelings.

She was reminded of the few celebrities that she had groomed, and then her thoughts jumped to Lin Yao.

‘The gap between them is like the gap between the sun and fireflies. They are totally incomparable… but I groomed the former personally.’

Lin Yao had no idea what was going on outside. Right now, he had already awakened from his epiphany, but he did not open his eyes. Instead, he was relishing the aftermath of perceiving the sun.

He finally woke up after a long while. Right after awakening, he sensed the drastic changes in his body. In particular, he sensed the Sun God Pattern on his chest, which had undergone a significant transformation.

‘It feels powerful, and my power of light is more than just light.’

As Lin Yao thought about this, he spread his right palm in front of him, and as his mind jolted, a cloud of golden flames quietly burned in his palm.
