37 Forever and Always 1 (1/2)
Madeleine looked at Dyon as they sat atop the Celestial Deer, gently running atop the ocean under the night sky, ”musical will… with your voice? Is that possible?”
Dyon smiled holding Madeleine in his arms.
What would I do without your smart mouth
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
Got my head spinning, no kidding, I can't pin you down
What's going on in that beautiful mind
I'm on your magical mystery ride
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me, but I'll be alright

Madeleine trembled. The emotion in Dyon's voice, it felt so clear.
”This is actually a song from the human world from an artist called John Legend. He obviously has no cultivation, but he can still make people feel indescribable pain and love to the point of tears. Why? Because the best instrument you have access to is your body. Nothing connects with what you want to convey more than your voice. You've been communicating with it since you were born. Whether they were gurgles or cries and now that you can use it to its fullest extent, think about how much it would amplify your will of music. Cultivation will always cap you at the 9th level of a will, but, I've come to understand that when you can find the root of a will, its most perfect form… you can make that will emit power comparable to an intent.”
Madeleine sat in a state of thought for a while, partly to wait for the tears in her eyes to stop from the song and partly because it seemed that whenever she spoke about cultivation with Dyon, she would reach a new level of enlightenment.
”How'd you figure that out?”
”I must have read hundreds of thousands of books on cultivation by now. Some of them mentioned a state of understanding of wills and intents that surpass a surface understanding. I didn't understand what it meant initially, but, the human world appreciates vocal music to a much higher extent than the martial world does, so while I was trying it out one day, my musical will evolved. So, I came to understand that a state of oneness with your will can come once you've understood the essence of what the will was created for and what medium maximizes it.”
Madeleine smiled, ”my master would bow down to you if you explained this to her, no matter how you try to play it off as simple.”
