The next day, after Toro´s first cultivation session he began his new routine.
Waking up in the morning, eating breakfast, and preparing for the day.
After that, he does his mandatory labor for the orphanage.
After all, he can not just stay there for free. While the kingdom where the Green River City is part of, has a good healthcare system and is good to the commoners, orphans still have to work to live in an orphanage.
The works are mostly some little things like helping different shops affiliated with the city or other minor things children can easily do.
When his work is done, it is mostly already afternoon.
Then he recites the [Sensing the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth Mantra] to sense the spirit energy.
Toro´s cultivation sessions of reciting the mantra are taking so long till he is exhausted and can no longer recite.
Then he eats something and goes to sleep.
This routine, he planned himself lasted already half a year.
While most children would not even have the patience to repeat the routine a week-long, Toro did it for half a year without pause.
He himself noticed this also but he does not think much about it.
He was even as a child more patient than the rest even more than some adult caretakers.
Toro mostly feels like he has a lot of time, so why should he stress himself about some minor things.
While he did have the feeling before knowing that he was a divine being after it the feeling got only more intense.
This feeling comes probably from the fact that he is a divine being and that their innate feeling or instincts are not the same as normal mortals.
For example, even in the legends, it is being told, that dragons and gods can sleep doing nothing for years or even decades without feeling bored.
In these sixth months of reciting the [Sensing the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth Mantra] and comprehending it, Toro learned a lot of things about the spirit energy of heaven and earth and even sensed sometimes a few lights in the environment.
While Toro himself is not a hundred percent sure, he can imagine that these lights are spiritual energy.
He could now go on to two paths.
The first is trying to absorb the light that he senses now and then.
Or he can wait, comprehend the spiritual energy further till he completely senses the spirit energy.
While thinking to himself, that the first path may be easier in the short term, the second path would bring him also a sturdier foundation, and like the [Sensing the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth Mantra] said it will be more beneficial to him, later on.
Having made his decision he goes on with his daily routine.
Day for day and week for week Toro can sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth more and more, easier and more often.
Around nine months after he first started sensing spirit energy.
Toro sits cross-legged in his room while reciting the [Sensing the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth Mantra], comprehending its mysteries and truths, and sensing the spiritual energy.
With his eyes closed, Toro senses many lights around him. So many lights that 99 percent around him is filled by them.
Then, suddenly the last percent of space around him is illuminated.
Toro´s sensing capabilities undergo a tremendous change
Before he only sensed the lights as transparent or with no colors, now after the change he can slowly recognize a few colors.
The most prominent is still the transparent color of spirit energy, but there are also many gold, yellow, red, blue, and green colors representing the five elements.
Though this is not the only change. After he completely sensed the spiritual energy and has a slight understanding of it, his body has kind of a gravitational effect.
The spirit energy in the environment is slowly attracted by him and then absorbed by his first meridian, which is placed at his dantian.
Toro opens his eyes and one can see the comprehension and wisdom of the spirit energy illuminated from them.
Before Toro only could sense the spirit energy in the meditative state, now he can clearly see the spiritual energy in the environment even with his eyes opened.
