Yang Dao stated what he was going through to at the moment. He did not even know what it was that he should try to solve. Laohu Bai smiled but did not reply. She drove her levitating military jeep at a calm speed. The weather was pleasant, with clear skies over head and a breeze stroking their faces slowly. 

They took a ride around the city and slowly came to the outskirts of the city. On the expressway, Laohu Bai increased the speed and they were heading to a random location. It has been two hours since the drive began. She said, "Dao, what you are worried about is that you cannot figure out your problem. Right?" 

Yang Dao nodded following which the lady said, "Then tell me, what you know?" 

Her calm tone had a soothing effect on the boy. He said, "I am at the second level of water element practice for the past one month. I have been trying to reduce the drag on the aircraft for the past week. I have tried all the means that I have but there has been no improvement. This is what I know." 

The lady with white hair shook her head, "I cannot help you with the aircraft you are making. I am not even aware of that. I want to know what you know about Water. What is the essence of water?"

Yang Dao nodded and said, "Water is calm, soft, cold, while at the same time, it is turbulent, hard, and consoling. Water is silent yet the silence also screams the loudest. It is flexible and can be anything, yet it will always regain its own properties." 

Laohu Bai nodded and said, "You forgot to say that water is boundless, yet limited. If you look at the spiritual properties of water, you will find that it is something opposite of fire, and different from other elements as well. However, have you noticed, that all the elements, despite being different from each other are the same at the root?" 

Her words fell on Yang Dao like a bolt of lightning. The boy had missed this point completely. He had never thought about things from this point of view. Being pointed out like this by Laohu Bai, he was surprised. He pondered over the words just now and gradually fell into a state of enlightenment. The aura in his body increased. It began to climb to a level, where Laohu Bai had to stop the car at the side. 

She waved her hand and cast a barrier around Yang Dao. His aura can directly impact the world now. So it was needed to be contained. Laohu Bai said, "Amber, Sushi, Luster, and Shadow, absorb all the leaking aura that you can. This is an opportunity for you all." 

Yang Dao's leaking aura can change the world and affect nature but it can also nourish the spiritual beings like nothing they can ever find. His aura contained the fragments and resonance of Dao. 

...

In the mirror world, Dao Yin was facing a few people with a sword in her hand. Her white hair was stained with blood, ragged breathing. She clicked her tongue and muttered, "You rats sure came at a good time." 

She was facing against the enemies in her world, however, she has not been at her peak and came to a blockade in her practice. Just when she was in a crucial phase, she was attacked by this group of people. She had killed at least twenty people by now and still, she had thirty more advancing towards her. 

Suddenly, she sensed strong energy pouring inside her. She had used her accumulated Dao resonance earlier to block the attack made on her life. She did not know where the energy was leaking from and pouring inside her body. However, this was all that she needed all the Dao resonance began to concentrate on her blade's edge. 

She took a deep breath and raised her sword. She said, "Dao Slash." 

With those words, she slashed the sword in her hand horizontally. An arc of dark light slashed at the people advancing towards her. The attack was not fast and nor did it look dominating but the moment it landed on the people or anything that stood in its way, the thing was evaporated completely. 

This was the destruction brought by Dao Resonance in the crudest form. Dao Yin stood at her spot looking at the destruction around her. She mumbled, "Yang Dao." 

She had found out the cause of this dao resonance. Only the dao child can harness the energy and other than her, only he can do it. She did not know how did this energy found its way into her world, but it did and saved her from imminent danger. She smiled and after sheathing her sword, she left the place with calm steps. 

She was the opposite mirror image of Yang Dao, at this moment she was stuck in her practice of the wind element. 

... 

The boy on the other hand was immersed in his practice. His eyes were flickering but his body was frozen. Laohu Bai suddenly smiled at the scene. She called Atsuji Kurogame. The call connected after a few seconds, she said, "Eldest did you transfer the excessive Dao resonance to the other side?" 

Yes, they were the heavenly spirit beasts and they could sense what was happening to Dao Yin in the other world too. They could only do this after the last time when Yang Dao interacted with Dao Yin in the Dao Courtyard Mansion. The reason was that they happened to be close to Yang Dao at that time. 

Atsuji Kurogame said, "Only when the gates of the Dam are opened, can the old accumulated water flow out. Only when the old one is flushed out to quench the thirsty is it useful for the new one to pour in." 

Laohu Bai nodded and said, "Well said. Take rest, eldest. We will meet soon." 

The call ended on a good note and Yang Dao seemed to have passed the obstacle in his practice. As the call finished, he opened his eyes and the leaking aura began to calm down. He said to Laohu Bai, "Thank you for your guidance, Teacher." 

He was about to stand up and bow to her when the lady said, "I did what is my duty, Master. Do not shame me like this. Now, that the dam has been emptied, time to accumulate again?" 

Yang Dao nodded and said, "Indeed." his practice has reached level three.. The next thing he did was to complete the contract with the element and affirm his foothold.
