Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chapter 1262 Advancing to the Emperor Realm.

The old monk gazed at Lilly lovingly. He had never expected to discuss faith with a spirit, much less one who was

only a little girl.

“The commandments say “Thou shalt not murder, but murder isn’t literally about killing people. It also includes

abusive actions and words. To achieve enlightenment is to rid oneself of such thoughts.”

Lilly suddenly understood something.

As she had known before, The source of mortal agony comes from being unable to let go. and being unwilling to

see the truth. Only by letting go and opening one’s mind could one achieve peace.

“I see! So that’s what you mean, Gramps!” Lilly said.

The old monk smiled. “Many people claim to be searching for their faith, but they are only going around in circles,

misled by their own obstinacy. They might practice the commandments, but they cannot tolerate a differing

opinion. Some followers of the faith do it for the money, which itself is an act of greed. Even if someone might do

good deeds without asking for anything in return, their blind obstinacy could become an obstacle. The road to

enlightenment might just only be one thought away.”

Lilly clutched her head and said nothing.

She thought that the old monk’s words were very profound. Maybe the author didn’t even know what they were

writing about.

Lilly wagged her head. “I see, Gramps. I understand now. Thank you!”

The old monk chuckled. “Are you sure you understood everything?”

“Hmm… How can you tell if I haven’t?”

They exchanged a knowing glance and smiled. They sat there for the rest of the night. without exchanging a word.

When Lilly’s tea became cold, the old monk patiently replaced it with a fresh cup.

It was the coldest right before dawn. The leaves of the forest behind the monastery. was snowing.

Lilly was surprised. “Does it snow this far south?”

“Sometimes it does, but… it’s particularly cold this year,” the old monk said.

Lilly nodded and stood up. “Thank you for your tea, Gramps. I have to go now. We might not meet again, but it was

nice knowing you!”

The old monk smiled and shook his head. “Who can say? We might meet again very soon.”

“Huh?”

She did not understand, but it was time for her to go. It would be Christmas the next day, and she missed her

grandmother.

The old monk saw her off at the door and watched her leave.

Lilly flew very far away. When she turned her head around, she could still see the golden light and the old monk

standing beneath the eaves.

His face was blurry, but his silhouette became clearer than ever. It was like he was a guardian

of his faith.

Lilly felt that the conversation with the old monk had untangled something in her mind. With her thoughts cleared,

her level of cultivation rose tremendously.

The golden substance in her purple elixir field spun quickly, gathering the “spirit aura” found in the Human Realm. It

was unlike the spirit energy found in the underworld, but the two energies complemented each other.

The two energies swam like fishes in her elixir field, pushing her from a half step away the Emperor Realm to the

completion of the Early Emperor Realm.

She was half a step away from the Middle Emperor Realm.

Her aura drastically changed. It was more like Blake’s aura.

I’m in the Emperor Realm now!

from

She did not expect to advance to the Emperor Realm in the Human Realm, especially when. considering there was

no spirit energy here. Earlier, Alban had to travel to the underworld to advance.

“Looks like anything can be an opportunity in cultivation!” Lilly clenched her fists and felt energy flowing in her

veins. It was as though her palms held infinite. power.

She wanted to find something to punch, but nothing was available.

Lilly turned her head around again. She was already very far away, but the golden light was still visible.

I’m glad to have met Gramps today, but I don’t think there is anyone else like him in this

world,” Lilly mumbled to herself.

With gratitude in her heart, she headed back to the Crawford residence.

The Crawford family residence was bustling. Other than Cloud, the other seven sons were back home.

Three generations of Crawfords were gathered under one roof, from Hugh and Bettany, to Anthony and the others,

and finally Drake and Matthan..

Jean was floating on the second floor, watching the party downstairs. “They’re all here!”

Unfortunately, she could not show herself without Lilly. If she did, her mother would. “You’re back! Where’s Lilly?”

and “Did something happen to her?”

That would cause Bettany so much worry…

Lisa noticed Jean. She looked around and asked, “Where’s Lilly?”

Jean put a finger to her lips, indicating to her to shut.

Lisa’s eyes focused on the finger in front of her, and she became cross-eyed.

“What are you doing?” Bettany asked.

“I… I was trying to see if I could cross my eyes…” Lisa stammered. D

“Huh, Bettany said and walked away. She was tired of the other people asking her “Mom, where’s Lilly?” “Mom, is

Lilly home?” “Mom, when will Lilly be back?”

I want to know when Lilly will be back too…

It was Christmas Eve, and the sky was getting dark. Where could Lilly be?
