Yang Zhai came in front of a small shop. This shop was made of purple marble and had jewels embedded in it. At the front gate of the shop was written,
Reaching The Skies.
Yang Zhai opened the wooden gate and entered the shop. At the wooden counter, he saw two women who had smiles on their faces. Yang Zhai went to the counter and asked,
"Miss, Can I get the Sun Stone Of Liberty and the Moon Stone?"
"Huh, you are about to advance? But you look so young. If I am not wrong, you should have just become a cultivator." One of the counter ladies was shocked to hear Yang Zhai's request.
"No, miss, you have got it all wrong. My big brother asked me to buy this Sun Stone Of Liberty." Yang Zhai acted innocent and said with a smile.
"Oh, so that's what it is. I thought that you were about to advance. But the Academy gives the Sun Stone Of Liberty and the Moon Stone to their disciple who is about to advance. So, why does your brother want to buy one from us?" The lady said with an amiable smile. Usually, she would not ask this and would directly give what their customers required. However, when the lady saw Yang Zhai's innocence, she tried to save his Essence stones by telling him that.
"No, my brother has already completed his Academy and still didn't manage to advance. However, he is about to advance now, so he requires the Sun Stone and the Moon Stone." Yang Zhai said. He had to get this stone today; otherwise, he didn't know when he would return from the Ma clan, and it would delay his cultivation.
"Ok, wait for a minute." The counter lady went into a room and brought two stones with her.
She placed the stones on the counter and said,
"Here it is, you have to give me one hundred and sixty low-grade essence stones."
"Ok, here." Yang Zhai handed the essence stones to the counter lady and took the stones. He then placed the stones in the pouch and left. He had only twelve essence stones left now. He had already used all of his essence stones and had 12 left.
After taking the Sun Stone and the Moon Stone, Yang Zhai left and went to his room at the clan leader's residence.
He was sitting on his bed and was looking at the Sun Stone. This stone had the color of the sun and was warm, its shape was like a sun.
After that, he took out the Moon Stone and examined it. This stone looked like a moon and was cold. Yang Zhai then sighed after seeing the Moon Stone.
"Sigh, if I had only managed to get only a single living Moon Bull when I was at the mid-stage, it would have benefited me greatly. But whatever, let's wait until I reach the rank 2 early stage." Yang Zhai did not bother over this anymore. There was no meaning in fretting over a thing that he could not get. Even though he would not be able to fill up the loss that had occurred when he didn't manage to get the Moon Bull at the mid-stage, he was still not worried.
Yang Zhai was a cautious man. However, even then he also had to take the risks to achieve his goals and Yang Zhai did not hesitate to take the risks. After all, he had killed five disciples of his class and also killed Keal and Xin in the clan leader's residence.
However, he could not get the Moon Bull on the mid-stage and missed the opportunity. After that, he didn't go after the Moon Bull again because there was a chance of many more mortals lurking around the Moon bulls to hunt the disciples. However, after he advanced to the third stage, he could not use the Moon Bull anymore and waited to reach the rank 2 early stage. At rank 2 early stage, Yang Zhai would have to take the risk again.
Yang Zhai placed the stones on the bed and took out the essence stones. After that, he absorbed the spiritual energy from the outside world with his body and a black vortex appeared on his chest.
There were three ways to absorb the spiritual energy from the outside world. One was through the body, the second was through the aperture, and the third was through the sun that appears in the aperture at rank 2.
Last time, to advance to the rank 1 perfect stage, he absorbed the spiritual energy with the help of his aperture to open the aperture gate. And now, he absorbed the spiritual energy with his body. The first time he had absorbed the spiritual energy with his body was to become a cultivator and the black vortex had appeared around the abdomen.
But now, when he absorbed the spiritual energy, the black vortex appeared on his chest. This time the vortex didn't appear on the abdomen because there was an aperture gate around the abdomen.
Yang Zhai took the Sun Stone and one essence stone. He then threw both of them into the black vortex.
The black vortex was like a black hole, and inside it was like a void, and the things that entered it could not be seen. However, in this black vortex, a light began to emerge that was white. The light then turned red and after the red, the light turned orange, then into yellow, after yellow it turned into green, after that, it turned into blue, from blue to indigo, and lastly, it turned into violet. After turning violet, the light suddenly disappeared.
After a while, a small white dot could be seen in the extreme darkness. An explosion happened and waves were released from the white dot into the void. Waves after wave were being released and different kinds of colors appeared in the void. These different colors were the dust particles and the gasses. Dust particles and gasses appeared in the void from the white dot. An extreme shock happened and everything shook violently in the black vortex. All of the spiritual energy that was turned from the essence stone inside the black vortex was being absorbed quickly and was turning into different gasses and particles.
Then the time stopped for a second in the vortex and everything stopped right where they were, and nothing moved.
Then, suddenly, an attraction was excluded from the white dot and everything around the white dot began to move toward it. All of the dust particles and the gasses began to combine with the white dot. The white dot was slowly increasing in size and kept on rotating. Different colors were shining in the void. What was strange was that not even a bit of light exited the black vortex.
If he had not reached the perfect stage, then an intense reaction would have happened with the outside world for his advancement to happen smoothly. He would have needed to absorb many things from the outside world to succeed. And when this resonance with the outside world occurs, an extreme reaction is caused and the different particles are absorbed from the outside world to stabilize the sun and the void. During this reaction, the colors also begin to change around the cultivator, and almost everyone near the cultivator knows that someone is advancing.
However, right now, he was already at the Perfect stage, and his body was enough to form the sun. The Over stage was above the peak stage, and it was even said that the Over stage was above the world. After all, everything had a peak and even this world had one; So, how come the Over stage existed? Yang Zhai did not know about that, but he knew that this Over stage was the perfection achieved above the Peak stage. And the Over or Perfect stage contained everything of its own, it did not need the help of the world to let a person advance. Therefore, no reaction or resonance with the world was caused.
The white dot had already increased to the size of a person and kept on increasing in the black vortex and its rotation also increased.
Then suddenly, all of the particles and the gasses began to move toward the white dot at an imaginable speed.
After an hour, a huge Yellow Sun appeared in the void of the black vortex. The white dot had already increased to an unimaginable size. Its color also looked like it was a mixture of orange, red, and yellow. However, in reality, it contained many colors.
*****/*****
Sun: It is a common misconception that the Sun is yellow, orange or even red. However, the Sun is essentially all colors mixed together, which appear to our eyes as white. This is easy to see in pictures taken from space. Rainbows are lights from the Sun, separated into their colors.
