An aura of the Great Dao burst forth.
Startled, the Heavenly Dog tumbled over and shrank back.
Zhulong raised his eyes for a glance, then closed them and went back to sleep.
He remained curled atop the Heavenly Dog's head.
As though embedded there, he did not budge an inch.
But the aura of the Great Dao left as quickly as it came.
In an instant, calm returned to the surroundings.
??
Those who had sensed it had only just risen before sitting back down.
Especially after learning its source, they settled into their seats all the more comfortably.
Yet for a long time, no one spoke or moved.
Perhaps they could not figure it out.
How had someone who had only recently become an immortal already comprehended the Dao?
Old Yellow Ox stared at Jiang Man for a long while, then lowered his head and ate grass.
He showed no intention of speaking whatsoever.
Jiang Man smiled. "Little Huang, I always hear you lot saying how difficult Dao comprehension is. Once my cultivation reached the right level, I wanted to experience that difficulty for myself. You never know until you try, and guess what?
"It really wasn't that hard.
"Those who call it hard should think more about whether the problem lies with themselves."
Old Yellow Ox did not respond and kept eating grass.
"Little Huang, say something. Don't you like talking anymore?" Jiang Man said, looking at Old Yellow Ox.
Yet Old Yellow Ox kept his head down and ate grass, like an ordinary ox.
Jiang Man said a couple more things, but Old Yellow Ox still showed no sign of speaking.
Jiang Man shook his head and sighed. "Old Huang, you've changed. You weren't like this before."
"You weren't like this before you came of age, either,"
