841 DAO GUIDE

"But we have a question?" ,Young Master Ivan said, "You said that the ancient geniuses had failed to master the Greater Dao. Then is there any chance for us to master it?"

"Don't worry." ,Arjun smiled and said, "You have put your faith in me. I would naturally not treat you negatively. I would not give up until you master the Greater Dao. So do you have faith in me?"

"Absolutely without any hesitation." ,Both of them replied in unison.

"Then be patient." ,Arjun replied, "Be it the Grand Dao or the Greater Dao, The first thing you need to do is relax yourself. Too many questions comes to the mind of a cultivator when he is about to master the Dao. And this is what led to rise of too many negative questions. This is the first place where a cultivator always fails to master the Dao. You people have a good attitude. But the reason why are you still feeling is because of the doubts in your mind. Just keep this thing in your mind. And don't forget. Dao is tough. That is true. But it is not impossible. With me here, you people will definitely master the Dao. This is my promise."

Both the young Masters became excited. How many people seek to learn Dao? But majority of them have failed. But today they have received an unexpected opportunity to learn Dao. And what is excited them even more is, Arjun said that it is not impossible for them to fail. And he guaranteed their success.

"But remember one thing. I need you people's full cooperation." ,Arjun said, "All I can do is push you in the right direction. How much you people could learn from this is all up to you. But I have another problem. If I were to teach you the path of Greater Dao, first I have to learn it. And I am estimating that it will take at least five years to master it."

"Five years?" ,Young Master Kenneth asked in reluctant, "The competition will start after five years. That means, we won't be even able to start learning the Greater Dao before the competition in the Eagle Province?"

"That is true." ,Arjun replied, " But don't worry. I am not going to leave you alone completely. For the next five years stop cultivating. I will write down some things for you. This is the beginners guide for a cultivator about Dao. For the next five years, what you two need to do is, just try to comprehend the concept. Just let go other things. All you need to do is to read it again and again. Try to gain as much knowledge about the Dao as it is possible for you two."

Arjun continued, "And when I start teaching you Dao, It will become very easy for you to understand the concept. Trust me. If you work harder for the next five years, The Path for the Greater Dao will become very easy for you people."

"Yes." ,Young Master Ivan told truthfully. There is no need for him to lie about this. This is an open secret for the entire city.

"Then let me ask you a question?" ,Arjun asked, "Even if you joined the Royal Academy, can you bear the competition for becoming a Core Disciple? Even if you became a core disciple, Do you think that the teachers will give you lecture and make sure that each and every one of you will master the Dao?"

Both the Young masters remained silent. They naturally knew this point. But they have no other choice. Royal Academy was the only place where they have chances to take one step forward in their cultivation life. This is not only from the political point of view, but it is also from the personal point of you as well.

Arjun said, "Put some faith in me. I am more than sure that the Royal Academy doesn't even know that in the ancient days the cultivators used to follow the path of the Greater Dao! But here I am. Trust me. Even though mastering the Greater Dao is millions of times tougher than the Grand Dao, I will definitely teach you as you put your trust within me. Do you have the courage to learn it?"

"We will!" ,Both the young Masters said in unison and with firm tone. This is once in a lifetime opportunity. So why would they let it go?

"That is good to hear." ,Arjun nodded his head in agreement and said, "Then start reading the manual that I will give you very soon. Keep every point in your mind. Because in this manual I will write in which direction your thought process should go when I am about to teach you the Greater Dao. When you are trying to learn the Greater Dao, It will make things easier for you to comprehend the concept as you will think in the right direction. So don't take this manual very casually. Try to learn as if your life is on the line. If you don't learn it with all your heart, then your future will crumble and you couldn't go to the Celestial Realm!"

"Celestial Realm?" ,Both the young masters look at each other as it was first time they heard this word. Then, Young Master Kenneth asked, "What is Celestial Realm?"

Arjun smiled and asked, "Do you people know about the subsidiary realm?"

"Yes." ,Young Master Ivan replied, "Isn't those places are the domain of the gods from the heaven?"

Here "Gods from the heaven" were none other than the Sovereigns. Since they don't know about the existence of the sovereign, they referred them as the "Gods from the heaven".

"That's right." ,Arjun asked, "When a cultivator ascends from the subsidiary realm, then you people look at them with eyes full of contempt, right? But when any cultivator ascends from the God Realm to the Celestial Realm, then the cultivators from the Celestial Realm will look at you in the same way. Because the Celestial Realm is the next higher realm for the cultivators in the God Realm. You people call it the higher realm or whatever it is."
