Chapter 626: The Swordsman's Pride, again?
If Tang Yin wanted to understand both feelings without sacrificing his other attributes, he needed to find a balance between serenity, tranquility, and indifference.
He needed to find a balance between rage and anger. Once the dual cultivation began to take effect, he began to try to achieve that balance. The two of them were entwined, enjoying the moment. Although Zu Xin's moans sounded constant, Tang Yin was diligent and did not slack off in his training.
At the same time, his Law of Control and Divine Soul manifested, bringing him deep understanding in a short time.
He quickly realized that finding the balance between rage and anger was not complicated for him without falling into wrath. This is because he never got to the bottom of wrath and created a new concept. But the problem came when he needed to find serenity and tranquility without falling into indifference.
That was complicated because both mental states were very close to each other.
Still, Tang Yin did not need to achieve this initially. The first training in bed was for Tang Yin to understand the cultivation technique and some of the Law of Wind, so it didn't last long.
Soon after, Tang Yin came out of the cave and stood firmly on the mountain's edge to receive the wind that blew continuously and was practically palpable.
After being struck by it, he slowly began to notice what it could mean to achieve serenity.
'Serenity is perhaps the ideal state of mind for any cultivator. Because from serenity, I can change to indifference or wrath; I can make as many mental changes as I want because I have a serene and calm mind. But...'
'It's a problem if you tell me that I can never let go of serenity...'
Tang Yin raised his hand towards the wind. The wind hit his hand and moved it slightly, but Tang Yin was not exerting force.
He just wanted to understand that serenity.
'Its blows are not weak, even though they are not even felt.' He thought when he saw that the wind was carrying his hand gently.
'That's funny... It feels a bit cutting.' He thought and drew his sword.
It had been a while since he had taken it out, but this time, he felt that the wind was incredibly compatible with it, so he wanted to understand why.
Serenity was not particularly difficult to understand. Still, in serenity, there seemed to be something strange that made him consider whether serenity was so simple.
He raised his hand and made the wind strike the sword.
Like an excellent supreme weapon in the hands of a good wielder, it was able to cut the air that continually struck it, causing the palpable but invisible air to split in two. The blows of the wind did not affect the sword, but there was no further reaction either.
Tang Yin then noticed something and moved his sword slightly, thrusting it into the air. This sudden blow did not cut the wind as expected. Nor did it push it away.
Tang Yin expected at least a minimal reaction from this 'thick' wind, but there was no reaction. The wind gently and serenely crossed the sword as if it were just a tree in the way, which was hit by the gentle wind and only moved slightly without affecting it.
'Strange...' Tang Yin repeated his movement... Then two, three... Ten more times.
At this point, he stopped.
'The serenity... I see. The serenity of the wind is more of a tempering than anything else. What the wind wants is for me to temper my mind in a way that I never get out of control. It's a bit similar to the indifference of ice, but it's not the same. In this case, indifference does not achieve peace of mind in the face of difficulties; it simply ignores them.
But serenity does achieve that peace of mind and it is that peace of mind that will prevent me from falling into stress or any bad feelings.' Tang Yin smiled after realizing this.
Something was starting to form in his head, so he looked at his sword, happy. Discover hidden stories at My Virtual Library Empire
Still, looking at it, he immediately thought of his sword skill, the only one worth remembering.
That skill belonged to a man named Yan Zitao, who lived during the time of the great ancestors of the Tang Clan.
'The Swordsman's Pride...'
'That man... Wasn't he trying to create a new concept at that time? Come to think of it, he was mentioning something like that. He didn't want his sword to be used for assassination but to demonstrate his strength, and he created a sword technique capable of cutting worlds...'
'I see, he was a person with the Law of Wind. He was trying to create a new concept suitable for the sword and for the wind! Although I don't know if he succeeded... What that man has done will allow me to create a new concept.' He immediately looked up and put away his sword. He quickly entered the cave where Zu Xin was resting and cultivating.
As soon as he returned, he threw himself upon her with great motivation and desire to cultivate, so another round of dual cultivation began in this cave. That beautiful couple was intertwined with each other, enjoying what they were doing and cultivating at the same time.
The dual cultivation ended the next day. Tang Yin went out again to practice, but this time, he had a set goal: to find the balance between his sword and the serenity of the wind. He now understands this better because he has understood the Yin of Zu Xin very well and what she is trying to explain to him.
Right now, he just wanted to focus on that, so he started making back-and-forth movements with his sword.
These movements carried no power, as he had sealed his cultivation, but they somehow managed to move the wind around him.
His movements looked like a little dance under the wind. The wind gradually began to swirl around him. Making his every movement smoother and more natural.
