The Mighty Mage
Chapter 195: Epiphany

Chapter 195: Chapter 195: Epiphany

It was a beautiful sight. So beautiful that Ying Yue couldn’t stop herself from getting mesmerized.

"Sister this place is so beautiful! But wait! Why is the sky...looking like the galaxy? And what are those floating clouds?

And..."

Gu Jin hurriedly stopped her,

"Okay! Okay. Can you keep quiet? I will only be able to tell you if you let me speak."

"Oh! Right! Sorry sister." Ying Yue sticks her tongue out.

Gu Jin couldn’t bear to get angry seeing her cute expression and said,

"Fine. Now I will tell you a secret and I want you never let anyone know of it."

Ying Yue nodded solemnly when she saw Gu Jin’s expression.

Gu Jin continued,

"So, this place is my secret hideout. If you cultivate here, your cultivation speed will increase. You can think of it as a personal cultivation tower."

Ying Yue’s eyes widened,

"A cultivation tower?"

Since her birth, Ying Yue knew that the cultivation tower was a place, every cultivator wanted to spend time in.

No one knew how the cultivation tower was formed and who was the owner of it.

But one thing that everyone knew was that...cultivation tower could increase the cultivation speed.

As long as you have sufficient points your cultivation speed will increase.

Those points were too difficult to obtain.

But what was she hearing? Her sister has an entire cultivation tower with her!

What kind of strange fantasy setting was this?

"Sister...this..."

Gu Jin held Ying Yue’s hand and said gently,

"Yue from now on you will cultivate here. Don’t worry about the cultivation resources, I will provide them. In return I want you to become a talisman practitioner. Can you do it?"

As long as Ying Yue can become a talisman practitioner, she will be able to protect herself from grave danger.

After all, talismans were like safety charms! Once your mana runs out, you can flick a teleportation talisman and escape the danger!

Ying Yue’s eyes widened and she subconsciously shook her head,

"How can I...become a talisman practitioner...only a super rank mage can draw talismans!"

Gu Jin knew that what Ying Yue was telling, was the truth.

In the magic world, only a few Super Rank Mages could become talisman practitioners.

However, as far as she knows the book clearly mentioned how the Mystic Cultivators who started drawing talismans early, have more chances of becoming a Heaven Rank talisman practitioner!

Even the emperor rank mage can never become a heaven rank talisman practitioner!

No kidding, even Gu Jin was tempted to give up on magic cultivation and try mystic cultivation.

"Sister?" Ying Yue called out in confusion when she saw that Gu Jin was lost in her thoughts.

"Ah? Yes! Yes, you can become a talisman practitioner. The reason why only a few super-rank mages can become a talisman practitioners is that they lack spiritual energy.

In magic cultivation, a mage solely focuses on controlling the elements.

A mystic cultivator, on the other hand, has the advantage of being attuned to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth from the beginning.

This connection allows them to draw higher-rank talismans more easily.

They don’t need to wait until they reach a high level of power like Super Rank mages do."

Ying Yue looked skeptical but intrigued.

"So, if I cultivate here, I’ll be able to gather the spiritual energy I need to become a talisman practitioner?"

Gu Jin nodded.

"Exactly. This place is rich in spiritual energy, unlike any other. You’ll have a significant advantage. I believe you can do it, Yue."

Ying Yue’s heart trembled when she heard Gu Jin’s bold declaration.

It was as if Gu Jin was sure that she would succeed for sure.

No...to be more precise, it is Gu Jin’s confidence. Confidence that even if she(Ying Yue) can’t become a heaven-rank talisman practitioner, Gu Jin will find a way.

Ying Yue’s eyes welled up.

Who would have thought that a cold-faced person could be so gentle?

Even after Sister Gu did so many things for her, not once did she complain or ask for anything in return.

Ying Yue felt a surge of determination. She couldn’t let Gu Jin down.

"Alright, Sister. I’ll do it. I’ll become a talisman practitioner and make you proud."

Just when Gu Jin was thinking about how to motivate Ying Yue, she heard Ying Yue’s words.

A smile appeared on Gu Jin’s face,

"That’s the spirit."

Then she waved her hand and a book on talisman appeared in her hand.

"Here."

Ying Yue’s heart started to beat loudly when she saw the book. A strange sensation took over her body.

It was as if she had known the book for a long time.

How strange!

When Ying Yue held the book, she hugged tightly. Suddenly a question appeared in her mind.

"Sister, if spiritual energy is so great, why doesn’t the mage cultivate it from the start?"

"Ah?" Gu Jin was stunned at the sudden question.

"Sister I have been cultivating mystic energy for such a long time and I have understood one thing about spiritual energy.

It can be used as a medium. Didn’t sister mention, that magic resources are very costly? And 20% of the magic resources are the medium between the earth and the person’s body, like Mystic seed?

So if sister could cultivate spiritual energy, you can save up to 20% of your money!"

Gu Jin paused and after some thought, she shook her head,

"Spiritual energy can’t be used as a medium. It is a form of energy. And let me correct you. Mana is the medium, while the mystic seed is like a purifier."

"Purifier?" Ying Yue was confused.

"Hm. The higher the quality of Mystic Seed, the purer power absorbed from nature is."

"Why do you need a purifier, anyway?" Ying Yue questioned.

Indeed the environment is a bit polluted. But it was not to the point of wasting 10 million on a seed, right?

"That...that..." Gu Jin was stunned.

She couldn’t find an answer.

Right!

Why do we need purifiers anyway?

After thinking for a long while, Gu Jin suddenly reached an analysis,

"Maybe because our environment consists of all the elements. But I could only control a specific type of element, like plant element.

When I am about to attack, of course, I need to ensure that only the plant element from the surrounding enters my body, mystic seed works like a purifier..."

Click.

Gu Jin felt as if something unlocked in her mind, as she gave out that explanation.

"Sister? What is happening? Are you breaking through?" Ying Yue was stunned when she saw Gu Jin’s body getting enveloped in a strange golden light.

The light was very weak. It was so weak that it was almost invisible.

But to her sharp vision, Ying Yue was able to detect it.

"Master you are about to have an epiphany and you will have to leave the space."

Gu Jin’s eyes were dazed but she subconsciously muttered,

"Not...not..given...manual...cultivation... manual...to...yue...island...too...not...shown."

"Master don’t worry, I will give the cultivation manual to Miss Ying and show her, her respective island. Please exit the space, right away."

"Ex-it." Gu Jin followed the space’s instructions.

Whoosh.

Ying Yue’s eyes widened when she saw Gu Jin’s figure vanish and she called,

"Sister? Sister, where are you? What is happening? Sister? Are you playing a prank on me? Si-"

"Little girl please be silent." A kind voice said.

"Who are you?" Ying Yue looked around to locate the person speaking but saw no one.

Her heart raced as she clutched the talisman book tightly.

"Your sister has entered a state of enlightenment and must leave to complete it. Do not worry; she will return stronger."

"Wait! What does enlightenment mean?"

"Little girl, you can understand cultivation in two ways. By learning it from the surface and by learning it in depth.

Most of the cultivators only learn magic cultivation on the surface level, mastering spells and techniques without fully understanding the underlying principles.

Your sister, however, has delved deeper into the essence of magic and mystic cultivation.

This deeper understanding leads to what is known as enlightenment, a profound realization that significantly enhances one’s abilities and knowledge."

Ying Yue’s eyes widened in awe. "So, Sister is becoming even stronger?"

"Indeed. And while she is in this state, it is crucial that you focus on your own training."

"But who are you and why can’t I see you?" Ying Yue asked impatiently.

"I am the spirit of this space," the voice continued gently.

Ying Yue’s eyes widened in surprise.

"A spirit? Of this space? I didn’t know such things existed."

The voice chuckled softly.

"There is much you do not know, young one. Now, your sister entrusted me to guide you in her absence.

Let’s start by showing you to your island and giving you your cultivation manual."

With that, a warm, golden light enveloped Ying Yue once more, lifting her gently off the ground.
