Mind Realms

"Your daughter?" Admon hadn't really expected to be surprised by something like this. He had thought of Mery as a human kidnapped by monsters, but he instantly realised he was wrong and tried to figure out what was going on. Since he thought bears were monsters and knew that Lawrence was a monster king, it was hard to understand why his daughter had almost been killed by a pack of monsters. He didn't think he could find the answer on his own.

"Yes, sir, didn't you know?" As soon as Lawrence said this, Mery suddenly ran away and ran into the house. Lawrence and the group seemed to be in shock. Admon didn't quite understand what was going on, but he thought that maybe saying something might be encouraging, so he took a deep breath and said, "Look, Lawrence, while I respect you as a king, sometimes it's more important to be a father. Speak to your daughter as a father, not as a king, after all, she was being killed not so long ago, and by monsters."

"Sometimes it's more important to be a father," Lawrence's mind began to wander, and after only a dozen seconds, the king's aura began to change and grow stronger.

"WHOOP!!!" 

A loud vacuum sound emanated from the king's body and the group instantly rejoiced, Admon couldn't quite make out what was going on, but he could tell by the group's joy that something good was happening.

"CONGRATULATIONS TO MY KING!!!" Each member of the group suddenly dropped to his knees and then shouted these words. Admon never thought he would hear such a loud voice today. He was getting ready to congratulate himself when suddenly Lawrence turned to him and said, "Thank you very much, sir! Thanks to you, I've passed the barrier I haven't crossed in a hundred years!"

Admon couldn't quite figure out what he had or hadn't done to help him, but he could figure out what it was. In his previous lives he had already seen the strangeness of enlightenments. A cultivator could experience enlightenment in many different ways. There were body enlightenment, qi enlightenment, mind enlightenment, nature enlightenment, heart enlightenment, and many others. Lawrence should be experiencing something like that right now, the strange thing was what Admon might have said to trigger such an enlightenment.

"I'm not sure what I'm doing, but you're welcome." When Admon said this, Lawranca looked him in the eye, even though she thought it was impolite, and said, "All my life I have been trying to progress in the mind realms. Unfortunately, I was only able to break through to the [aging] realm and push it to the end. Thanks to you, I was able to break through from this level to the [blooming] realm in an instant." Then he fell to his knees and said, "The evil in my heart and mind had suppressed love and responsibility, and your words [sometimes it is more important to be a father] helped me to open my mind and heart. Thank you very much."

Admon seemed very happy to hear this. He hadn't expected to be the one to host such a situation, let alone be the one to make it happen, but of course he was delighted that he had done another good deed after his free will. Just as he was about to open his mouth and speak, a system window appeared in front of him:

"Master, as a result of your favour, the Infinite Cultivation System presents you with 20 Enlightenment Pills. How you use them is up to you."

As soon as Admon read this window, a heavy bottle formed in his hand from nothingness. Staring at the bottle, Admon had never had such a pill in his 100 years of cultivation, nor in any of his previous lives. A pill that could cause enlightenment? Wouldn't he be even stronger if he drank this? Or maybe he wouldn't have seen the [?] sign or the ERROR sign. Could it have happened?

"Well, look at that, you've paid your debt, Master Lawrence. Now go, you've kept Mery waiting too long." Admon had spoken those words the moment he picked up the bottle, and Lawrence had rushed into the house after hearing them.

It was the first time Admon had ever had anyone other than Mery in his house, and he was experiencing a very strange sensation when suddenly he whistled "Tweeeeeet!" and with that he tried to summon Nalin and Vered to his feet.

After only two dozen seconds both Nalin and Vered were in front of Admon, Admon gestured to the table and then encouraged them to come up to the table by saying "come on, I have a present for you".

Admon thought that in just a few seconds each of these pills would be wasted as much as he consumed. That's why he thought of giving one each to Nalin and Vered, after all, animals also had the possibility to evolve after a certain process. In his eyes, maybe Vered could turn into a basilisk and Nalin into something tiger-like, and who knows, maybe a Mountain Tiger would become his pet.

The whole group was trembling with fear at the sight of Nalin and Vered, and to top it off, this man Admon had summoned these two frightening beings with just a whistle. On top of that, these two beings were behaving like pets, there was no extra movement or anything like that, one was a cat and the other was a snake.

"Well done." After Admon said this, he held the bottle tightly and opened the bottle by pulling the stopper on the head. After he opened the bottle, an incredible amount of spiritual qi began to spread around and the group suddenly began to retreat backwards.

Just by inhaling the smell of the pills, their inner qi had increased tremendously. Each of them was about to swallow their little tongues in astonishment, but each of them still chose to shut their mouths in a ceremony of restraint. They were already unable to open their mouths in front of Nalin and Vered, but they could not even speak in front of Admon, who had suddenly unleashed such powerful pills. Each of them was briefly in great shock.

Was it really possible to have such an effect with a single pill?
