Chapter 137 Intent Of Water
Chapter 137 Intent Of Water
Long Ming took the fragment of the Ancient Word of Water.? Unlike his fantasy, it was a plain white scroll with a single character 'Water' written in an ancient script.
There was no flashing phenomenon not any projection of aura. At least that is what a person with ordinary sense will see.
However, Long Ming felt the word, and the writing style was very peculiar.
As he was someone with great calligraphy skills, Long Ming could feel the hidden intent behind the simple words. He was surprised to see a calligraphy of this level.
Sure, It didn't show any great scenes like Long Ming's painting or calligraphy, but it was definitely superior to his works.
' Those who don't have good comprehension and a superior perception, such calligraphy will be worth ten low grade spirit stones. However…'
Long Ming's Heavenly Revelation Eyes flashed, making his eyes flash with a dreamy azure light. The seemingly ordinary character turned bright, making Long Ming's mind shift into an entire other realm.
Long Ming suddenly opened his eyes and saw a vast ocean before him. The weather was sunny, with a clear sky filled with light floating clouds. The waves of the ocean roared and the sea wind hit Long Ming's face.
Long Ming's eyes narrowed when he suddenly saw a gigantic wave charging towards him. Rather than calling it a wave, he should better call it a moving mountain of water.
Long Ming's heart thumped when he realized he couldn't utilize his power at all. The wave came like a tsunami and crashed on Long Ming.
*GLUB GLUB BLUB!*
Long Ming was pushed deeper into the ocean. Using his body, he soon dove out to the surface.
" Ugh! This is… I was transported inside the calligraphy?"" Long Ming chuckled bitterly. " No, I think it's just my mind visualizing the intent hidden behind the calligraphy."
Long Ming couldn't able to stand for more than a few minutes before a gigantic wave sunk him into the ocean again. Although Long Ming wasn't harmed, being drowned in water forcefully isn't a pleasant sensation at all.
However, since the System gave me this as an opening reward, this couldn't be just a toy, right?' Long Ming pondered.
Since there was no life threatning danger, Long Ming decided to stay here and explore the secret behind the calligraphy piece.
" Ocean… Water and ocean are connected. Wave is a tremendous natural force." Long Ming mumbled. " A sprinkle of water can make someone comfortable. But the same water turns into such gigantic waves, capable of destroying even the strongest structure."
" Wait! Ocean, wave, and destruction?"
Long Ming suddenly felt he grasped something. While using the Courting Death System, he once got a dark gold grade skill called Nine Ocean Overlapping Fist.
But since Long Ming didn't cultivate in water attribute, he only learned it and never bothered to use it.
However, now, He can control water qi thanks to the Soaring Water Moon Technique. The grasp over the water element has been increased. And now, looking at this vast, raging ocean, a surge of inspiration appeared in Long Ming's mind.
He drew back his arms and took a step back. When he saw the next wave was coming toward him, he felt the power of water inside his divine sea and was guided into his fist.
" Ocean Tearing Fist."
Long Ming fist shot forward as the water before he rippled. The giant incoming wave almost parted into two, but Long Ming's force wasn't enough. The wave crashed and Long Ming sunk into the ocean once again.
However, this time, Long Ming didn't try to reach the surface again. He felt sinking and sinking, bubbles kept coming out of his mouth and nostril.
But instead of fighting back, Long Ming just kept drowning as he tried to comprehend the power of water.
Even if his Heavenly Comprehension Heart gave him immense comprehensive power, Long Ming still needed to spend some time to understand everything from scratch.
After all, such enlightenments aren't skills that can be learned instantly. One can only bet on their fortune and comprehension to take a glimpse and understand it.
Soon. Long Ming's Heavenly Revelation Eyes shone as his surroundings became more and more hazy.
" Ah… I see…"
Long Ming used the Soaring Water Moon Art and Nine Ocean Overlapping Fist as references. Both of them used water qi and traits related to water. Long Ming slowly understood the intent behind the calligraphy.
" This is the gentle yet overwhelming property of water. A gentle ripple from the center can create mountain like waves in the end."
Suddenly, Long Ming felt he suddenly stopped drowning as his body was suspended inside the ocean. Long Ming didn't even move, yet the water around him bubbled, making him propel upward.
It was like Long Ming was flying upward inside the ocean.
*BOOOM*
The water turned into a pillar as it lifted Long Ming. Long Ming stood on the pillar of the water, with his hands behind him. After coming out, his body wasn't soaked at all, as if he was layered by a thin layer of water insulation.
Long Ming laughed out loud as he stretched his body. Seeing the next incoming wave, he readied his stance.
" Let's try this new move." Long Ming became amused as the water qi circulated around him. However, it wasn't simple water qi, but something else, something deep and mysterious.
" One Palm Flips Nine Oceans!"
The wave exploded before Long Ming as a giant palm sized gap appeared in the middle of the wave. The wave of water stopped as it gently bowed before Long Ming, dissipating back into the ocean.
Long Ming took a deep breath as he opened his eyes. He was still inside his room and the scroll having the character 'Water' was still before him.
Long Ming looked at his palm as a gentle blue light flashed. The moisture gathered, but it didn't form a ball of water.
" To think I would comprehend Water Intent from this calligraphy scroll." Long Ming took a deep breath as his expression was complicated.
As someone knows, there are five stages of comprehension: Aura, Qi, Intent, Heart, and Dao.
Thanks to this painting, Long Ming directly comprehended the Water Inint, boosting his ability and strength by a large margin.
' Such an amazing treasure. I am sure it will beneficial to anyone who stares at it and comprehends its mysteries.'
' Besides, This is only a Fragmented Word. I wonder what a full calligraphy scroll looks like?'
[ Ding! Great Crow of Dark Mysteries is amused by Host's comprehension. He says only a True Dao Heart can reach the apex]
[ Ding! Harem King of Nine World is saying he is being chunni again]
[ Ding! Some other Constellations are keeping their distance from the Great Crow of Dark Mysteries]
' It looks like Senior Crow is a hidden bigshot, huh?'
Long Ming pondered. However, no matter how powerful he is, Long Ming felt they couldn't extend their powers to the Primal Chaos Universe.
Then, Long Ming opened his Dark Gold Rank Chest.
[ Ding! Host obtained a Dark Gold Grade Pill, Meridian Rejuvenation Pill]
" Well, It looks like it's a powerful pill that can cure internal injuries and injuries of qi deviation." Long Ming looked at the description as he mumbled inwardly.
" Wait, How much time I spent meditating?" Long Ming was startled as he hurriedly walked out. He realized it was already late evening. This means he was in deep meditation for more than eight hours.
' Well, At least I improved my strength in this time, Nothing wasteful at all." Long Ming chuckled as he got up.
Opening the door, he walked out and felt the evening breeze.
" Ah, So you came out."
Long Ming turned his head and looked at Ming Yuexin. " Ah, Were you waiting here, Sister Ming?"
" Not really. I just came here right now." Ming Yuexin smiled. " Mm, What is this feeling? I feel the aura around you changed subtly."
" Sister Ming is sharp as always." Long Ming grinned. " Well, I just got enlightened and improved one of my techniques."
Ming Yuexin was speechless. Is getting enlightenment is that casual? Why doesn't she get a few enlightenments like that?
" But, Where is Senior Sister Mu?"
" Well, She is practicing her sword. Why? Want to meet her?" Ming Yuexin smiled.
" Hmm, I wonder if you should meet her right now?"
" Huh? Why?" Long Ming was surprised. Ming Yuexin only giggled as she turned around.
" I wonder too…"
After Ming Yuexin left, Long Ming walked to Mu Qinglian's courtyard.
" What is it, Sister Mu? Are you feeling good?" Long Ming leaned on the wall with a smile.
Mu Qinglian was performing the Four Seasons Grand Swordplay, her movements were simply flawless.
But Long Ming suddenly shivered when Mu Qinglian glanced at him. It was like an old lady suddenly noticed the thief who stole her bag. And now, she wants to beat the thief to death.
But that feeling vanished as Mu Qinglian sighed. " Feeling good? For what?"
" For making Jia Qing and Li Qingxin miserable?" Long Ming chuckled. " Although I couldn't mess with Li Qingxin much, I am sure she felt humiliated today."
" Hmm, That's true." Mu Qinglian thought for a moment before nodding. She suddenly turned around and walked at him.
" I am hungry."
" Yes?"
Long Ming's face turned odd when he heard that. " Shall I ask Uncle Chong to…"
" I said I am hungry." Mu Qinglian spoke again. " I want food right now."
Long Ming was speechless as something clicked in his mind. " You mean… You want me to cook?"
" You are wise."
Long Ming almost stumbled when he heard that.
Sister, thank heaven that I am wise. Otherwise, it would be impossible to read your signal.
" As you wish, Senior Sister."
Mu Qinglian sighed when she saw Long Ming go to prepare for dinner.
" Sigh, Why does he have to be so handsome and capable?"
" No! No no no! I have to make my move soon. Otherwise, There won't be a drop of soup left in the bowl for me."
