Chapter 396: Epiphany.

Yang Dao sat in the study with his eyes closed. Feng Yun sat on a chair beside him, browsing through the books collected in the study. She was very curious about the knowledge of this world. This place had quite a lot of things similar to Liro but they were technologically backward. 

However, elemental science had helped them negate the matter. The mobiles were replaced by long-distance communication charm cards. They had also developed vehicles for traveling. The books in the study had a rich knowledge of the modes of transportation from all over the world. 

The hot-air balloon thing they saw on their way to the city was called Fire Bubble. The water region had a similar vehicle that traveled on the surface of the waterways, it was called, Nixie. This thing was a version of the motorboat, it traveled by the bending of the water element. The earth elementals had the vehicles they called Marbel. This thing was akin to a monowheel. The difference was that there were two monowheels attached to a cabin. 

Yang Dao had no interest in this knowledge for the time being. He wanted to figure out a way to change the arrogant perception of the people in this region, for that he tried to meditate and seek the answers from within. Suddenly, he sighed, no way could make him achieve this change. 

Hearing his sigh, Feng Yun said, "Dao, did you forget what I said when we came into this place?" 

Yang Dao heard these words and his mind began to work. What Feng Yun said just now pointed at the hint she had passed to him in before they entered inside the realm of elements. She had told him that this world had no record books like those he had seen in the other two sacred realms. At that moment Feng Yun had said, "The horizon is your journal." 

Yang Dao thought about it and for some weird reason, he stood up from the floor and came to the balcony attached to the study room. The sun was slowly setting at the horizon. Yang Dao gazed at the scenery with silence, he did not try to control his thoughts. It has been a long time, since he had discovered that the more you control your thoughts the more you dwell on them, and the more you dwell the more you worry. 

The secret of attaining calm was to let it all go with the flow of nature. Consciousness was a river thought, the more you control it the heavier the pressure, so let it flow freely, and eventually, all these ideas will fall in the ocean of nothingness. Calm and peace were nothing. As the Dao Child watched the scenery it clicked to him. 

Horizon was his journal, he did not know if the interpretation he made was correct or not but he was sure that it was the most suitable to solve his problem. If everyone can take a look at his journal, will it not be circulating the thoughts in his mind to the people. Not everyone can read these thoughts but they can understand them if they get the correct explanation. 

How do people relate to things? They will relate to things when they see the similarities among these things. What was the similarity between people and Yang Dao? Ofcourse, the great dao, that was his common ground to talk to the people. 

Thus the boy fell into a false state of epiphany. This state was not triggered by his heart or mind resonating with the Dao but it was something that made him fall into a deeper state of self-cultivation. Only when he is sorted on the inside can he sort the things outside. 

Feng Yun could sense the changes in his mood. She smiled and continued reading the book in her hand at leisure. The boy spent the whole night standing on the balcony of the study room. He did not even come inside for dinner. When the maids tried to approach him, Feng Yun denied them any intrusion. Her tone was not kind. 

The sun rose up in the sky and Jual, the old king of flames, came searching for Yang Dao. He was surprised to see that the boy was still inside the study room. He knocked on the door and heard a clear voice coming from inside the room. He punched the door opened and walked in, to see Feng Yun holding a book in her hand while a pile was lying at her side. 

She may be the overseer of this realm but never has she come here to check the growth, at least not in a human form. So, she was very curious and could not keep from reading. She knew the visitor was Jual. Without raising her gaze she asked, "Are you looking for, Master?" 

Jual nodded without speaking, he was not charmed by her beauty but awed by her aura. In front of Feng Yun did not give off the aura that made her look like the empress of the world, but whenever Jual saw her alone, he could not help but submit to her aura as a subordinate would. 

Feng Yun replied, "He has fallen in a state of epiphany, you can go, and tell the people to be patient and he will address them at his own convenience."

Her tone did not leave any room for negotiation. Jual understood that if the person falls into a state of epiphany, then he will not wake up until it is naturally ended, if you forcefully try to intervene, then you will cause more harm than help. 

Jual nodded and left, he was about to go outside the room when Feng Yun said, "Call over your granddaughter. I have something for her to help me with." 

The man nodded respectfully and retired. He did wonder, why the boy was ignoring the address, and now this lady had called over his granddaughter. What did she want her to help with? Were they bad people? ETC ETC. However, as a firm believer, he decided to follow the command sent by the King Of Flames, right hand.

Feng Yun did not have any other motive, but just prepared things for Yang Dao after he woke up from the revelation.
