Exposed After I became an Immortal - Chapter 4
Chapter 4: Enlightening the Mountain Dog! Reward! The Great Wilderness Devouring Heaven Skill!
“However … this spiritual herb belongs to me, a Realised Being*. You, a mere little mountain dog! How dare you steal and eat it! No way! I must keep you, this mountain dog, to guard my house and yard!” With a turn of his eyes, Zhu Xuanji stepped forward. He raised his hand. And pressed his palm on the mountain dog’s head.
[*Zhenren (Chinese: 真人; pinyin: zhēnrén; lit. ‘true/genuine person’ or ‘person of truth’) is a Chinese term that first appeared in the Zhuangzi meaning “Taoist spiritual master” in those writings. Religious Taoism mythologized zhenren, having them occupy various places in the celestial hierarchy sometimes synonymous with xian, while Chinese Buddhism used it to translate Arahant “Enlightened One”.There are many possible titles and translations possible for this word, so I’ve taken the liberty to use “Realised Being”. You can feel free to read more about it here: Zhenren – Wikipedia]
Then, Zhu Xuanji activated the Basic Enlightenment Technique! Ripples, barely visible, spread from Zhu Xuanji’s palm to the mountain dog’s body.
After about half an hour, the faint light on Zhu Xuanji’s hand finally disappeared.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully enlightening a mountain dog and obtaining the Great Wilderness Devouring Heaven Skill!]
[Great Wilderness Devouring Heaven Skill is a mighty divine skill. When cultivated to a high level, one can devour heaven and earth, mountains and rivers, sun, moon, and stars. Nothing is undevourable!]
[Ding! Based on the bloodline quality of this mountain dog, the system has detected three evolution paths for it.]
[First: Guardian Dog. The combat power of the Guardian Dogs are extremely formidable, able to fight ferocious beasts like lions and tigers!]
[Second: Mountain Wind. Mountain Winds runs as fast as the wind and brings fierce winds wherever it appears!]
[Third: Heavenly Dog. The Heavenly Dog looks like a great comet, with fiery flames wherever it falls, appearing like a beacon, it can devour the moon and sun with immense combat power!]
[Please choose an evolution direction for the host!]
Hearing these mechanical voices in his ears, Zhu Xuanji instantly became happy.
Enlightenment was successful?
And I received a reward?
“The Great Wilderness Devouring Heaven Skill”!
Just listen to the name, how domineering!
Not bad! Not bad at all! But … this unremarkable mountain dog actually has three evolution paths?
Guardian Dog!
Mountain Wind!
Heavenly Dog!
Surely, I have to choose the Heavenly Dog! Regardless of whether it can evolve into a Heavenly Dog or not! Choosing this cannot go wrong. A Heavenly Dog devouring the sun and moon! How magnificent! If it doesn’t succeed, so be it. But if it does evolve, then I will be in great luck!
Thinking this, Zhu Xuanji almost without hesitation chose the Heavenly Dog evolution path.
[Ding! Evolution path chosen. Please continue enlightening this mountain dog. If the evolution fails, the host will face certain punishment.]
[If the evolution succeeds, the host will receive continuous rewards!]
“Nani? There’s punishment too? What the heck?”
Zhu Xuanji was baffled, he never expected this development.
That after determining the evolution path, there would be this condition. So, there was still a risk of the evolution not being successful.
The mountain dog was still chewing on a few spiritual herbs, looked at Zhu Xuanji and said, “Woof … Who are you?”
After three months of cultivation, Zhu Xuanji’s Glazed Golden Body Technique had also made some progress.
His whole body radiated a golden light. He had a bit of an immortal presence. Although he looked like a youth. He had an air of authority without the might of one.
This mountain dog had been subjected to Zhu Xuanji’s Basic Enlightenment Technique. It could now speak human words.
However, hearing the mountain dog’s words, Zhu Xuanji realized that the Basic Enlightenment Technique indeed had limited effects. It couldn’t make this mountain dog smart.
“Who am I? I am the Realised Being Xuanji, who knows everything and can do anything, from heaven to earth! Bold dog! You stole the spiritual herbs I planted! Originally, you deserved a good beating! But, considering you are also a living being. I won’t hold it against you! Today, I enlightened you! Bestowing upon you an opportunity! From now on, you will stay here, guarding my house and yard! In the future, there will be no shortage of benefits for you. Hurry and pay respects to this Realised Being!”
Hearing Zhu Xuanji’s words.
The two eyes of the mountain dog still showed confusion. Zhu Xuanji saw this.
Great! This is not only an mountain dog, but it’s also a dumb one! To transform this mountain dog into something useful, to evolve it into a Heavenly Dog! It is indeed a long and arduous task!
The mountain dog asked, “Woof … Pay respects … to the Realised Being? Realised Being … hungry!”
Zhu Xuanji helplessly waved his hand.
“Eat, eat! Looking at your yellow fur. You do have a bit of a majestic look. From now on, you will be called Da Huang!”
Da Huang (Da Huang) munched on the spiritual herbs noisily. He didn’t care what Zhu Xuanji was saying.
Zhu Xuanji saw this, feeling somewhat helpless.
So this Da Huang is not only a foolish dog, but also a gluttonous dog. Forget it, forget it. It’s a source of amusement anyway. Let’s make do with it!
After all, after enlightening this mountain dog, he had already received the system reward of the Great Wilderness Devouring Heaven Skill.
He had already profited! As for the punishment for unsuccessful evolution. Worrying about it was useless. It was better to do what he should.
Initially, Zhu Xuanji planned to pull a spiritual herb to taste what it was like, but seeing Da Huang eating so heartily. He felt somewhat uncomfortable. He wasn’t hungry, anyhow.
The effect of the Grain Abstinence Pill was excellent.
Spiritual herbs were still herbs, not eating them was fine too!
Feeling somewhat uncomfortable, Zhu Xuanji turned around and headed towards the lakeside. He remembered that there were a few small silver fish in the lake. He planned to enlighten those small silver fish to see if he could enlighten some intelligent creatures.
