Chapter 16 Transformation of Divine Consciousness Nannan became more and more depressed as she spoke, and in the end she even started to cry. She lowered her head, as if she was escaping and as if she had made a mistake. Lu Zhou rubbed her head and said softly with a smile. "Don't worry, Nannan. Brother Lu is a cultivator and has a way to help you solve this problem. Nannan will never forget Brother Lu." "Ah! Really?" Nannan was very surprised, her eyes were sparkling like stars. "of course it's true!" As Lu Zhou spoke, a necklace appeared in his hand. The silk thread of the necklace is just ordinary gold thread, and hanging on the gold thread is a teardrop-shaped, mutton-fat white jade pendant as big as a date pit. Lu Zhou put the pendant around Nannan's neck.
He said to Nannan. "This pendant can record what happens around you every day. When you wake up every day, the pendant will show you what happened around you the previous day." "When Brother Lu's attainments in Dao patterns become more advanced, Brother Lu will be able to refine a pendant for you that can record more time." "When that happens, Nannan will never forget Brother Lu." This pendant was made temporarily by Lu Zhou while Nannan was taking a bath. With his current level of cultivation, it is too easy for him to refine a pendant that can record some information. Hearing Lu Zhou say this, Nannan was very happy and treasured the pendant very much. She held it in her hand with great care. In the following time, Lu Zhou and Nannan lived in the palace of Emperor Yan. There were people serving them every day. Nannan really became a little princess, and everyone doted on her. Listening to her innocent and carefree laughter every day, and watching her small figure moving among the flowers and plants every day, chasing butterflies or playing with birds, Lu Zhou also smiled. He believes that this is what a child’s childhood should be like. Lu Zhou’s stay in Emperor Yan’s palace was not in vain. He had instructed the cultivators recruited by Emperor Yan in their cultivation, and also gave them the Xiyue flowers and Ziyang grass that he had signed in at Xiyue Cave and Ziyang Cave as rewards. As for Emperor Yan, Lu Zhou had personally combed his body for him. The Empress and concubines all said that they were very happy. Each one seems to be more radiant than ever! This is obviously the result of being adequately nourished and watered. Lu Zhou did not use his power to pressure others, but instead brought them benefits. Under such circumstances, they were more respectful to Lu Zhou and Xiao Nannan and served them more attentively. To be honest, for Lu Zhou, such days are very comfortable. But he knew very well that without strength, the so-called comfort would only be temporary and would never last long. Therefore, he never gave up his practice.
When he signed in at the Green Emperor’s Tomb before, he had obtained a green lotus. The green lotus he planted in the Holy Spring of the Empress still maintained its vitality. The green lotus has three lotus seeds. Lu Zhou once took a green lotus seed, which allowed him to break through from the life spring to the other side. After he settled down in Emperor Yan's palace, he took a red lotus seed from the pod of the green lotus. After taking the red lotus seeds, Lu Zhou once again felt as if his entire body was on fire. He had the same feeling as when he used the emperor's blood to cleanse his body. After he spent ten days completely refining the red lotus seeds, he clearly felt that his physique and strength had improved a lot compared to before. This improvement was actually comparable to the effect when he used that drop of imperial blood to cleanse his body. Before, Lu Zhou only had the courage to confront some life spring devices head-on. Now, he was certain that he could definitely take on some weapons refined by Life Spring monks with his bare hands. This had been confirmed by him. This does not mean that the red lotus seeds are comparable to the blood of God. This is absolutely impossible. The reason for this is that compared to the emperor's blood, Lu Zhou absorbed more medicinal effects from the red lotus seeds. The grade of the Emperor's blood was too high, and Lu Zhou was too weak to absorb it, so he wasted too much of it. Relatively speaking, the red lotus seeds are more suitable for him. Now, he has used two green lotus seeds, one has improved his cultivation, and the other has helped him to improve his physique and strength. This makes Lu Zhou even more looking forward to the third golden green lotus seed. After he finished his conditioning and thoroughly mastered the new changes in his body, Lu Zhou couldn't wait to take off the golden green lotus seed. The moment he took out the golden lotus seed, the lotus seemed to have completed its mission. It bloomed with three colors of blue, red and gold, and then withered in an instant. Finally, under Lu Zhou's gaze, it turned into a lotus seed and sank quietly into the Holy Spring of the Empress. Lu Zhou raised his hand and took the lotus seed into his hand. He sensed carefully and felt a strong vitality from the lotus seeds. At that moment, Lu Zhou's eyes lit up, and he immediately put the lotus seed back into the Empress's Holy Spring for warming. So, ten days later, the lotus seeds really began to sprout just as Lu Zhou had expected. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be able to grow into a green lotus again and produce lotus seeds. And Lu Zhou did not waste these ten days. He had already swallowed the golden green lotus seed. The moment he took the golden green lotus seeds, the golden green lotus seeds turned into streams of golden energy, rushing towards his limbs, bones, and internal organs. When he was practicing the Taoist scriptures and preparing to refine the golden energies, he discovered that the golden energies finally turned into trickles of golden mist. After flowing through his body, they quickly gathered towards his brows.
Then, a scene that surprised Lu Zhou appeared. His spiritual consciousness, which had originally turned into mist, began to transform after being contaminated by the golden mist. This transformation process lasted for a full three days. Three days later, Lu Zhou's misty consciousness condensed into liquid. His spiritual consciousness turned into liquid. First one drop, then two and three drops. Finally, more and more drops of light gathered together to form a golden 'small lake' of divine consciousness! Seeing this scene, Lu Zhou thought of Ye Fan in the original novel. Ye Fan once took the second kind of holy fruit in the ancient forbidden land. The holy fruit can help cultivators refine and enhance their spiritual awareness. Ye Fan used the cauldron to suppress his body, and after taking the holy fruit, his spiritual consciousness greatly increased and transformed, and finally a golden "small lake" of spiritual consciousness condensed between his brows. It was also at that time that he broke through into the Divine Bridge. Lu Zhou still remembered that Ye Fan once relied on his powerful spiritual sense to kill Yao Xi by surprise, causing Yao Xi to suffer a great loss. Not only was she touched and naked by Ye Fan, but even her underwear was taken away by Ye Fan. In addition, during Ye Fan's growth, his powerful spiritual awareness helped him conquer and suppress enemies and achieved great military exploits. The more a monk practices, the smaller the role of ordinary resources will be. The further you go, the more you need to understand! In this regard, the spiritual consciousness of the cultivator will also play a very crucial role. In this way, the importance of spiritual consciousness is further demonstrated. At this moment, Lu Zhou saw that he had transformed his consciousness earlier than Ye Fan and condensed a small lake of consciousness. He was immediately surprised. No, it should be ecstatic. He couldn't wait to begin to experience in detail the various powers of his spiritual consciousness after its transformation! (End of this chapter)
