Although it was night, it was still clear that this place was quite different from the rest of the forest, lacking the dangerous and chilling atmosphere and possessing more tranquility and peace.
"Goose!"
A clear swan call caught Dongfang Jing's attention.
The sound didn't come from the one beside me, but from another emerald swan lying on the lawn not far away.
"Goose."
"Goose?"
More and more calls rang out, and one after another, emerald swans gathered from all directions, roughly sixty or seventy in number.
They chirped merrily around Brigitte, their voices rising and falling in waves.
Although Brigitte was the clan leader, she never made her people kneel before her, and she herself interacted with them affectionately.
This magnificent sight prompted Dongfang Jing to ask, "Master, are all these swans yours? Could it be that all the emerald swans in the entire forest have gathered here?"
Brigitte nodded gently: "Those who are willing to follow me will live here. You will also live here from now on."
Watching Brigitte crouch down and communicate with the swans in a language the Oriental Mirror couldn't understand.
He couldn't help but wonder: 'Could it be that my master, like Little White, the King of the Demon Soul Great White Shark, is a 100,000-year-old soul beast capable of transforming into a human?'
At this moment, several bold swans gathered around Dongfang Jing.
Although Brigitte had introduced him to her people in the language of spirit beasts, most of the swans had not witnessed him saving people and were still somewhat afraid of humans.
Knowing that these jade swans meant no harm, Dongfang Jing decided to reach out and touch them.
"Goose?"
A curious jade swan tilted its head and suddenly poked Dongfang Jing's crotch with its sharp beak.
"Ugh!" Dongfang Jing didn't react in time. He squatted down in pain, pointed at the swan, and put on the pain mask.
"you**!"
The emerald swan tilted its head innocently. "This is what humans are like? How can they be weaker than me?"
Brigitte couldn't help but chuckle, and walked over to tap the mischievous swan on the head: "Apologize now! Or your food will be halved tomorrow!"
The swan cried out in protest, but still circled around the Oriental Mirror, even spreading its wings to treat him.
After this little incident passed, the swans all returned to the lawn to rest, except for the one that was injured earlier, which remained with Dongfang Jing.
The master and apprentice sat facing each other on a tree stump.
“My disciple, I know you have many questions in your heart,” Brigitte said gently, with a hint of mystery in her voice. “When the time is right, I will tell you everything.”
"I understand, Master."
Biji smiled slightly and pointed to the sleeping swans: "Many of the swans here have guardians, who are ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts that they have saved. So you are very safe here."
She paused for a moment: "The little guy next to you is an exception. It sneaked out when the guardian wasn't looking."
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Jing released his spiritual power to investigate and indeed found a bee-like soul beast with ten thousand years of cultivation on a large tree not far away.
The bee merely glanced at him indifferently, showing no hostility.
“I have already explained your situation to all the Guardians,” Brigitte added. “They will not harm you. Is there anything else you would like to ask?”
Dongfang Jing wasn't too concerned about his living environment; what he cared about most right now was cultivation: "Master, about the spiritual world and the spiritual sea..."
“Yes, these two are both distinct and inseparable; they are related as the whole and the core,” Brigitte patiently explained. “The spiritual world is the inner space composed of all a person’s spiritual power, consciousness, memory, and thoughts. When spiritual power is projected outward, it can form a spiritual realm that influences reality; when viewed inward, one can enter this abstract yet real world.”
As she spoke, Biji used her mental power to communicate with Dongfang Jing telepathically: "Just like now, those with strong mental power can communicate mentally, which is called telepathy, indicating that our mental worlds have interacted. Everyone's mental world is different; it may be a desert, a fog, or some other scene, but they are all inseparable from the characteristic of 'abstraction.' You can perceive its existence, but it is difficult to fully understand its essence."
Dongfang Jing nodded as if he understood.
Brigitte continued her explanation:
"The Sea of Spirit is the gathering place of liquid spiritual energy within the spiritual world, and the source of spiritual power. Only when spiritual energy is strong enough can this 'ocean' be formed in the spiritual world. The spiritual world of ordinary soul masters is mostly in a gaseous or chaotic state, without a formed 'ocean'. The stronger the spiritual energy, the wider and deeper this 'ocean' becomes. To use any soul skill, especially a spiritual soul skill, one needs to convert soul power into spiritual energy and then release it by consuming the energy in the Sea of Spirit."
“Disciple, what you saw through your inner vision is the Sea of Spirit! This is quite intriguing, because with your strength and the attributes of your weapon spirit, you shouldn’t possess a Sea of Spirit!”

After hearing Bi Ji's explanation, Dongfang Jing suddenly understood.
He thought to himself, 'My strong mental power might be related to the fact that I'm a time traveler, but it's more likely due to the Hall of a Thousand Mirrors.'
"When Master restored my spiritual power, what did he see of my spiritual world?" Dongfang Jing asked curiously.
“Your mental world is…” Brigitte suddenly fell silent.
Fine beads of sweat seeped from her slender, smooth back, and she unconsciously swallowed.
"As your teacher... I'm not quite sure either. As for the spiritual world, let's explore it when you're stronger. Right now, you should focus on cultivating your soul power and theoretical knowledge."
"Yes, Master."
Afterwards, Dongfang Jing asked a few more questions related to cultivation.
Although Biji is a soul beast, she is one of the few wise soul beasts, and her wisdom even surpasses that of scholars and masters in the human world.
When Dongfang showed off his eye-shaped spirit bone, Brigitte immediately recognized it as a rare external spirit bone.
"The most special thing about external soul bones is that they can evolve as the master's soul power increases."
After examining it carefully, Brigitte said, "But your eye-shaped soul bone seems to be more special. It's probably not enough to improve it with soul power alone. I speculate that it will only evolve when your mental power reaches a certain level."
As we talked, the sky began to lighten.
As Brigitte watched her disciples diligently digesting the knowledge, a gratified smile appeared on her face.
Even she herself felt that the scene was extremely unreal.
They actually decided to take a human as their disciple.
"Little mirror~" she suddenly called softly.
The Eastern Mirror looked up.
Brigitte met his gaze, her tone becoming solemn: "Since you have already become my disciple, it is only right and proper for me to help you resolve your inner conflict."
Her gaze fell on Dongfang Jing's earring, and she said softly, "If I were your sister, I would hope every day that my brother is still alive. Even if we can never see each other again, this hope will never change."
After saying this, Brigitte got up and left.
Dongfang Jing stood there, stunned, as the jade swan beside him gently pecked at his earring.
A moment later, the boy smiled with relief.
Master is right. I was indeed too selfish and never really considered Yao'er's feelings.
He took out paper and pen, and by the faint light of dawn, began to write earnestly.
Seven Treasures City, Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School.
Dongfang Yao opened her tired eyes in the room, and what came into view was a clean and luxurious ceiling, as well as various valuable pieces of furniture.
Even the bed beneath him and the bedding he was covered with were made of the most precious materials.
However, all this luxury cannot compare to the preciousness of that familiar figure.
She hugged the blanket tightly, unable to help but miss the warmth of her brother beneath her.
But soon, a determined light ignited in the girl's eyes.
From this moment on, she will work twice as hard in her cultivation, vowing to find the murderer who killed her brother and avenge him!
Just as she was gathering her strength and preparing to take out a change of clothes from the necklace, she suddenly noticed something was wrong.
The storage space of this Gemini vortex is a full fifty cubic meters, which is very large.
Even after the siblings' belongings were placed inside, the room still looked empty.
Although Dongfang Jing didn't have many personal belongings, his house was filled with all sorts of things.
For example, he enjoys cooking, so he has filled his kitchen with all kinds of cooking utensils and seasonings, including pots, pans, and bowls.
At that moment, Dongfang Yao keenly noticed that several pots and pans seemed to be missing.
Immediately afterwards, a letter appeared out of thin air in the storage space.
Her hands trembled as she took out the letter, and her eyes instantly welled up with tears when she saw the handwriting.
-
"Yao'er, it's your brother. I have so much to tell you, but first I want to let you know I'm safe. I'm alive and well. I'm currently in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest, but don't worry, I'm safe. I met a kind Title Douluo senior who will take me as her disciple and is treating me very well. You don't need to worry about me."
Upon reading the letter, Dongfang Yao burst into tears of joy!
This is definitely my brother's handwriting! He's still alive!
She quickly wiped away her tears and eagerly took out paper and pen to reply:
-
Brother, what is your exact location in the forest? I can ask Ning for help.
As I wrote this, my pen suddenly stopped.
Dongfang Yao's eyes gradually deepened.
She originally wanted to ask Ning Fengzhi to send someone to pick up her brother, but after thinking about it again, she realized that she absolutely could not do that!
The fact that everyone thought the older brother was dead actually became the best cover-up.
If Ning Fengzhi knew that his brother was still alive, he would definitely send a large number of disciples into the forest to bring his brother back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
By then, the secrets of my brother's mirror travels and the Hall of a Thousand Mirrors will be exposed! My brother will definitely be used as a tool!
Although she was grateful to Sword Douluo for taking her as his disciple, Dongfang Yao would only regard him as her master, not her teacher.
It's not a deeper bond; she's willing to seriously study swordsmanship, and if she achieves some success, she'll lend a helping hand to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School when it faces difficulties in the future.
