Chapter 152: Moving Step by Step (2/2)

The next day, she woke up early as usual. Cleaned herself, changed back to her light blue robes and grabbed her sword before leaving for the training fields.

As the sun peeked from below, she walked to her usual spot only to find someone else there.

Younger than her, it was a girl practicing with her sword. Younger then her but Ming Yue knew she had a higher cultivation than her.

Wearing black and emerald robes, she moved with sense of wildness and force. As she moved about, a bright green aura emerged from her body as the ground began to rumble. Almost resembling a liquid, the soil surged and moved as she moved.

Each attack made the soil flow forward like waves. With an upward slash, the soil resembled a wave crashing onto a cliff face, engulfing what ever was in front of it.

Ming Yue watched with curiosity. Even with her control of wind, she could not move it like what this girl had done.

However, she had ideas and learned a bit from what the girl had done. Ming Yue left and found another place to train, beginning to try and sense the world's energy. She slowly released her energy, letting it roam about. Rather than using her physical senses, she instead relied in her aura.

Perhaps she thought wrong of what the world's energy is.

What if the world had multiple energies, the energy of wind, of the soil, of fire?

Interconnected yet separate, different. It was all part of the world but they were their own entity.

Like them she was her own entity. Her attacks used her own energy thus they did not use the world's power. Her use of wind was not truly wind but wind created through her own power. It was not natural per se.

Knowing this, Ming Yue had to find the energy of the world. She had to understand what it felt like but it is easier said then done. Even after days of trying, she could not find a thing.

This time she tried something different. With her energy slowly expanding, she only focused on the cool breeze that brushed by her, trying to interact with it through her aura.

In those moments, she felt something. Foreign but familiar, it was a constant flow and a gentle one. It was a only for a moment before that feeling disappeared but she was certain, it was the true force of wind, the real energy of the world.

She tried again but could not feel it anymore. However, there was a result. She had felt it and now she knew what to look for.

As for that young girl, she sensed Ming Yue's energy and watched her.

”She's getting quite close”, the girl said.

This was not the first time she had seen her. The girl trained early in the morning to avoid any noise and believed Ming Yue would ruin it. However, she was pleasantly surprised, finding Ming Yue's dedication and focus commendable.
