How strange.” whispered the middle-aged man. At that moment, Lin Feng was giving him an extraordinary impression.
When looking at Lin Feng’s back, he had the feeling he was looking at a celestial being, Lin Feng made his heartbeat race. Was Lin Feng really the person Zi Yi was talking about?
“Has he come to the Zi Wei Mountain Village to become a servant or is it because he doesn’t care about what we think of him and seeks to advance his cultivation?” thought the middle-aged man. On the continent, it wasn’t uncommon for disciples belonging to powerful clans to practice cultivation on a journey. Some of them went to war and gained experience on the battlefield while others degraded themselves to become slaves to test their determination, to change their state of mind. The middle-aged man thought that Lin Feng probably belonged to the second category.
Otherwise, that young man would unlikely be standing there while controlling the Qi of heaven and earth. How could he become a servant and clean the garden in a small mountain village?
The middle-aged man took a step and then started walking slowly towards Lin Feng. However, he was walking very carefully trying not to make any sound, he was afraid that he would interrupt Lin Feng.
At that moment, Lin Feng’s state of mind was as limpid as water. He was absolutely lost in his thoughts not paying attention to his surroundings.
“On that day, when I reached my current state, around my body was battle energy, ice energy and sword energy… before I made all the energy fuse together. Why did it become sword energy, why didn’t it become ice energy or battle energy?” Lin Feng kept asking himself thousands of questions.
“A sword can have sword force, a blade can have blade force, a sword can be used to carry out an energy attack just like a blade. When a cultivator masters the sword, they can fuse with their sword, when they master the blade, they can fuse together with their blade: well, what about the other types of energy?”
“For example, a moment ago, the leaf was floating on the wind, however a leaf has leaf force; when the wind controlling the leaf has wind force. Force is present in all things and can be used for energy attacks and fused. Swords and blades are not the only things which produce force, it should be possible to fuse with all of the ten thousand things of creation.” Lin Feng felt like he had realized something. He suddenly gained enlightenment.
Lin Feng raised his hand in the air and slashed it though the air, like a shadow, his movement was invisible. Suddenly, a leaf was cut into hundreds of pieces which floated through the air.
Even though Lin Feng was closing his eyes, he had a feeling of absolute control, as if he could control everything around him. He had the same feeling as when he was using his spirit, but it was different to some extent.
When he used his spirit, his entire world became darkness but at that moment, it seemed like he had fused together with the earth. He could clearly perceive everything that was happening around him.
In the manuals of cultivation, it was said that cultivation depended on your awareness level and your advancement. As far as awareness is concerned, if you wanted to open the door which lead to the truth of the universe, first, you had to become one with the earth.
