Divine Halo Formation

Hui Yue was surrounded by darkness, but the more he merged with the mountain, the less uncomfortable this darkness made him feel. In fact, it reminded him of the time he too had been surrounded by darkness before he had gained sentience and realized that he was a mountain.

The black sea no longer tried to break through the defenses set by the red gem; instead, it surrounded him protectively as if he were in a warm embrace and this caused something to change within Hui Yue.

He felt how suddenly he fully merged with the mountain and all the knowledge that the mountain had known flooded his brain.

Not only his knowledge but the daos he had gained insights into as well entered his mind like a flood after a broken dam. The dao of earth twisted and churned around him, giving him instantaneous enlightenment.
