Reincarnated With A Divine Bloodline System - Chapter 37: -37- Small Child
Chapter 37: -37- Small Child
The spirit then walked them over to the last hall, the Insight Hall.
“This is the Insight Hall…” the old man said.
Silas began to look inside the hall, and inside was a completely new world. There was a large mountain, a vast lake, and a starry night sky.
“The Insight Hall was meticulously designed by the late master. When living within the Insight Hall, one can better sense the Dao,” the old man explained.
“Whenever you have any time to meditate, it should be done inside this hall. With this, you will make large strides in your comprehension. All you have to do is enter and sit upon the jade bed. When sitting upon the jade bed, one’s mind will clear and be in tune with the various wondrous mysteries of the Dao.”
The old man then sighed, “Well, I’ve shown you around to the various places you are currently allowed… Now, all you have to do is become a True Immortal, and your job as a disciple of Daoist Silent Sage will be complete. You will inherit this immortal estate, becoming its master.”
“No problem, just give us a little time,” Kai said with confidence.
The old man gave Kai an odd look, then added, “I know you two are special in some way, but becoming a true immortal is rare beyond rare. In the Supreme Peng Dynasty, which rules this planet, perhaps a couple of million years will pass without a single True Immortal being born. They are truly beings that transcend the realm and are no longer bound by the restrictions those under them must face. While you are special, do not become arrogant, or you will suffer the same fate as my master.”
“Now, if you ever have a need for me, just call.”
The old spirit was about to disappear, but before he could, Silas said, “Wait.”
“Hmm?” the old man said, confused as to what else they could possibly need.
“I’m curious— as inheritors of this estate, are Kai and I allowed to enter and exit the inheritance realm?” Silas asked. He hoped that he could go back and tell his parents that he and Thea had succeeded.
The old man gave a small smile, “Yes, as the inheritors of this immortal estate, you are allowed to enter and exit as you please, and before you decide to enter the wider world, the two of you will have to decide who will carry this estate on them.”
“Great…” Silas said. He wanted to go see his parents before he entered the wider world, but before he did that, he wanted to explore more of this place.
“So we get to keep this immortal estate with us?” Silas asked.
“To be a true cultivator, one must journey through the world, gaining experiences along the way. while you cannot bind the estate until you are no longer an inheritor but a master, I will still allow you to carry it on your person…” the spirit said.
“Thank you,” Silas said. He was happy that he would be able to carry the estate with him, which meant that his family would always be safe as long as he stayed out of trouble.
‘Once we leave and find a safe place, I’ll hide this away someplace safe.’ Silas thought.
“Is that all?” the spirit asked.
Silas nodded, “Yes, and thank you once again.”
“No problem, I’m only doing as my master instructed,” the old man said before disappearing.
“So, what will you do first?” Thea asked. She was only allowed to remain in the main hall, but she wasn’t going to stop Silas from doing what he wanted to.
“I don’t know what to do. I guess I’ll try out this hall,” Silas said, looking into the Insight Hall and the jade bed that was sitting inside, next to the mountain and lake.
“Alright, take your time and don’t worry about me,” Thea said, but before he could enter, another person teleported in beside them.
[Treasure Spirit]
“Hello there,” a small child said. The spirit looked to be no older than five years old and wore a jade robe.
“Umm… hello,” Silas said.
“You must be wondering who I am…” the child said.
Silas nodded.
“Ha, I’m the treasure spirit of the Pure Yang (Rank 7/True Immortal) grade jade bed inside the Insight Hall,” the child said with a smile and a laugh.
“Pure Yang?” Kai said, a little shocked.
“I guess this place does have some good stuff inside,” Kai sent Silas.
“I told you it would…” Silas sent back.
“Yes, I’m a True Immortal grade treasure,” the child said with a beaming smile, clearly proud of its rank.
“I see that you are unsure of what to do, and while the spirit of this place wasn’t very helpful, I’d be glad to be of some service,” the child said.
“Ok, senior, we will trust in your judgment,” Silas said. Why wouldn’t he trust in this Pure Yang treasure spirit who would clearly know much more about this place than him?
The small child was giddy with excitement at being addressed as senior and quickly began, “First, you should go to the Treasure Hall and select your treasure for being a dual Qi and body Transcendent cultivator.”
“Ok, please lead the way,” Silas said.
The group was then led over to the Treasure Hall.
“You two will have to stay outside,” the child said, looking at Thea and Red.
They both nodded, and Red flew over to Thea’s shoulder, “No problem, please take your time.”
Silas, Kai, and the treasure spirit then walked into the hall.
As they entered, it instantly felt as though they had entered a different world.
Silas and Kai both looked around, feeling odd.
“Ha ha,” the child began to laugh.
“This is its own dimension,” the child began, “Each of these halls is a secondary dimension which the late master created himself. These dimensions are connected with the main hall, thus when we stepped through it, we entered this new dimension.”
“How does one create a dimension?” Silas asked, a little curious.
“Ha, you are far off from needing to know that… The great powers of this realm are able to create an entire dimension within a single grain of sand. Do you think you will be able to do this with your feeble strength anytime soon?” the child asked as he continued to walk forward.
Silas knew the spirit was right, so he put the thought out of his mind and began to look at the many treasures that were floating around, each one with its own special aura.
“Don’t stare for too long. You will only have the ability to choose a select few, and only then if you meet the master’s criteria. The past two inheritors and disciples also once stood here drooling over the various treasures, but where are they now… They have both long died, and if you aren’t careful, you will follow in their footsteps… Of course, if you were allowed to choose freely from this selection, your chances of survival would likely skyrocket,” the child said with a laugh.
“One of the disciples even made it all the way to his heavenly tribulation before he was killed by it, and I have no doubt that if he were able to select even one extra treasure from this place, you two would not be here right now because he would have become a True Immortal and the master of this immortal estate…”
Silas looked up and saw a small sword that floated in the distance, and all around it, the space would slowly be destroyed and then repaired, and then destroyed again.
‘Destruction…’ Silas thought. He could tell this had to do with the Dao of Destruction.
“Ha, you would love to have that now, wouldn’t you? That there is an immortal grade treasure used by Earth and Loose Immortals, but how many Earth and Loose Immortals will truly be able to acquire such a treasure? How rare are they? Generally speaking, most Earth and Loose Immortals will have to use Heaven-grade magic treasures…” the child continued to ramble on.
After the child eventually stopped talking, Silas finally said very respectfully, “Senior!”
And without a ripple, the old spirit of the immortal estate teleported into the Treasure Hall.
“Would you each like to make your selections for being a Transcendent lifeform in both Qi and body cultivation?” the old man asked, looking at both Silas and Kai.
