The years when I would transform

As summer goes and autumn comes, the bamboo forest is still as green as ink. The breeze blows through the bamboo forest, bringing bursts of fresh breath, which is a unique smell mixed with the fragrance of bamboo, soil, and plants, which is refreshing.

Master Jingyuan was still sitting in the bamboo forest, meditating quietly. He had been sitting here for four months without moving.

Outside the bamboo forest, the young monk from Lin Temple placed the food box on a clean bluestone, then turned around and left quietly.

Master Jingyuan slowly opened his eyes, his gaze was gentle and deep. He glanced at Wang Xiao who was still in "enlightenment", nodded secretly in his heart, and then waved his hand lightly. The food box outside the bamboo forest seemed to be pulled by an invisible hand, passing through the forest and leaves, and landed steadily in front of him.

He reached out and picked up the food box, opened the lid, and the aroma of food filled his nose. Just as he was about to enjoy it, he suddenly heard Wang Xiao's voice, "Master, you can't enjoy the food alone."

Master Jingyuan was shocked, and then he slowly raised his head and looked forward, only to see Wang Xiao standing quietly in front of him, as if he had merged into the bamboo forest, as if Wang Xiao was actually a bamboo, and he was unaware of it. "Donor Wang, you have profound cultivation, and you were able to get close to me without me noticing. I believe your state of mind must have been perfect, resonating with all things, and comprehending the true meaning of all things. Congratulations, Donor Wang."

"Thank you for your guidance, Master." Wang Xiao put his hands together and bowed deeply to Master Jingyuan. "If it weren't for you, I don't know when I would have understood it."

"Mr. Wang is extremely talented. I am just giving you some guidance." Master Jingyuan responded modestly, and at the same time extended his hand to invite Wang Xiao to sit down and have his meal.

Wang Xiao sat cross-legged and looked at the vegetarian food in the food box. "Would you like some roast duck?"

This was a bit too much. Letting a high monk eat roast duck, if it was anyone else, Master Jingyuan would have slapped him away, but it was Wang Xiao who said this. He also knew that Wang Xiao's mind was perfect now, and he did what he wanted, so he didn't mind. He immediately said: "Amitabha, Mr. Wang, roast duck is delicious, but it is not beneficial to practice, but it is easy to give rise to greed."

After saying this, Master Jingyuan picked up his chopsticks, picked up a piece of tofu and put it into his mouth, and continued: "What realm is Donor Wang in now? I cannot see through it."

Four months ago, Master Jingyuan could tell at a glance that Wang Xiao was at the great power realm, but at this moment he was completely unable to tell Wang Xiao's realm. It was not that Wang Xiao's realm was too high, but that there was no energy fluctuation around Wang Xiao, just like an ordinary person.

Wang Xiao smiled slightly and said, "I am now back in the Divine Bridge Realm."

After hearing this, Master Jingyuan's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he nodded and praised: "Those who have reached the Divine Bridge Realm use their bodies as a bridge to connect heaven and earth and comprehend the mysteries of all things. Ordinary evolvers can enter the Divine Bridge Realm if they can comprehend one mystery. Donor Wang has actually comprehended the mysteries of all things in the Divine Bridge Realm. You are the only one from ancient times to the present."

Wang Xiao shook his head modestly and said, "Master, you are too kind. Fortunately, you have pointed me out, so I can understand the truth. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would still be wandering in confusion."

"It is rare for Donor Wang to reach this state. Above this state, one has no self in his heart, and can perceive all things and become one with heaven and earth. Looking at Donor Wang's state, he has touched the threshold of the state of unity between heaven and man."

"I reached the Divine Bridge Realm in the second year of the Secret Realm. Later, due to the condensation of energy and the confinement of my form, my realm dropped to the Great Power Realm. Fortunately, Master Taikang guided me. Otherwise, I would be just an ordinary Divine Bridge Realm evolver, but with two forms."

Master Jingyuan was even more amazed by Wang Xiao's words. He said, "Donor Wang is right. The path of cultivation is like sailing against the current. If you don't move forward, you will move backward. You were able to condense energy in the Divine Bridge Realm, confine your form, and return to the Great Power Realm. The perseverance and wisdom required for this are beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Now that you can return to the Divine Bridge Realm, it proves that you are extraordinary."

Throughout the history of human civilization, no one has ever been able to reach the top by himself. A person's success is often inseparable from the support and help of those around him...

The two continued to eat, and the atmosphere in the bamboo forest became more peaceful and tranquil. The breeze blew, and the bamboo leaves rustled, as if accompanying their conversation. It was not until the sun set and the sky was filled with sunset that Wang Xiao stood up and said goodbye to Master Jingyuan.

"Master, I have been here for a long time. If we meet again someday, I will definitely talk to you again."

Master Jingyuan also stood up, clasped his hands together, and bowed deeply to Wang Xiao.

"Donor Wang, I hope your path of cultivation will be smooth and unobstructed, and that you will reach the summit soon. Although I cannot go with you, I will pray for you here."

After Wang Xiao bowed to Master Jingyuan again to express his gratitude, he turned and left the bamboo forest. His figure gradually faded away in the afterglow of the setting sun and finally disappeared into the depths of the bamboo forest.

Master Jingyuan sat down again and continued to taste his vegetables and tofu. The bamboo forest was still as green as ink, and the breeze brought bursts of fresh air.

This bamboo forest witnessed the communication and understanding between Wang Xiao and Master Jingyuan, and also witnessed Wang Xiao's growth and transformation on the path of spiritual practice.

Wang Xiao came and left in a hurry. Many years after he left here, this bamboo forest had a name - Wudao Forest!

Qian Liang lives in a mid-range residential area in Linji City.

He got up very early today. Firstly, because the family business has been not going well recently and he had to get up early to go to the company. Secondly, because Xi Que wanted to go to the amusement park to play today.

The magpie woke up early in the morning, without washing his face, going to the bathroom, or changing into his pajamas, but he already started clamoring to go to the playground.

I don’t know why the child is so energetic. Anyway, Qian Liang washed Xi Que with dark circles under his eyes, made a simple breakfast, and then woke up his wife who was still sleeping.

The family of three sat around the small dining table, and Magpie was whining and getting angry because she wanted to go to the playground without eating.

Qian Liang was browsing his phone while eating a bun, looking absent-minded.

"Qian Liang, are you watching the news again? Are you still checking to see if there is any information about your friend?" Qian Liang's wife filled a bowl of porridge and pushed it in front of him.

Qian Liang raised his head, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes. He put down his phone, took the porridge handed to him by his wife, and said lightly: "Without my friend, I would probably be dead. Even if I could survive, I can't come back to Earth."

At that time, the [Front Realm] was weak, and the receptionists of the Yanhuang Clan often died unexpectedly. It was not until the past two years, as the ranking of the Yanhuang Clan rose, that the receptionists' lives became slightly better.

Seeing this, Xi Que pouted in dissatisfaction. She jumped to Qian Liang's side, hugged his thighs with both hands, and said coquettishly: "Dad, Dad, when are we going to the playground? I can't wait!"

Qian Liang put down the bowl of porridge and patted Xi Que's head. "Be good, Xi Que. Wait until dad finishes breakfast, then we'll go. We'll play all day today."

"Okay, it's a deal, pinky promise."

The magpie stretched out his little finger, and Qian Liang also stretched out his little finger and made a pinky promise with the magpie.
