"Those desires are rely fleeting clouds beneath the bustling prosperity, neither born with us nor carried into death, a heart at peace like still water." Hearing Zuo Dahai's words, Luo Chao seed to have gained so insight, "Water is the source of all things, a heart at peace is to empty everything and return to the source, like water..."
"Water is the companion of life, and also its final resting place. Qu Yuan embraced the sand, Lao She threw himself into the lake. When the body finally rges with the water, all dreams turn into a crimson patch on the water, ideals sink to the bottom, while character is purified and sublimated. Whether this is fortunate or unfortunate, who knows?"
"Just as God said, 'Dust returns to dust, soil returns to soil'. Those literati who kept company with water all their lives ultimately embrace it; though this perfection is painful and bleak, it remains tragically beautiful and heroic, like a teor tracing an arc across the night sky, or the trajectory of a red maple leaf drifting from the branch."
"With a kind of sacrifice, a kind of self-severance to guard one's ntal sanctuary, this is the capital that prevents a literati from drifting with the tide, the character that refuses humiliation, requiring a kind of courage! It's a steadfast pursuit of one's ideals!"
"Therefore, water is a state of mind, moistening text, making grammar transparent, rippling through words, interpreting the spirit of scholars. Clear, simple, calm, elegant, unrestrained, wave, surge, elusive, sand—are any of these words not touched by water? Which do not carry a refreshing coolness? And which have not overflowed with the elegance and style of scholars?"
"The mountain is still, the water is moving, a gentle wave of the sleeve stirs ripples deep in the heart. Water is like a warrior; drawing the sword with a loud whistle will also stir up torrents of emotion. So when spirits soar, I am by the water, embracing its waist, whispering in its ear, reciting this elegant poem. When lost and regretful, I am also by the water, silently facing it, the reflection in my eyes turning into a teardrop, reflecting the sorrow in my heart."
"Water is my lover, entwined with him or her, giving my nature more softness, more clarity. On the other side of water, across a patch of reeds, I travel from the Yangtze River, waves rolling like white clouds, a small boat carrying to the ends of the earth."
"Waves may not rise, but with the birth of wind, the water surges. Water is nature's elf, spreading charm between heaven and earth, enticing to sink into its moist coolness. A backward glance and a slight sway of its slender waist, becos West Lake; throwing open its chest and strolling while singing, becos the Yangtze; its turbid waves rising to the sky, rushing down, becos the Yellow River!"
"Water is charming, water is wild, water is dissolute. The myriad appearances of water inspire my imagination, give a reason for life, provide with a vast ntal landscape that withstands the vicissitudes of life."
"So I stand long by the water, silently watching the waves, perhaps, the waves ripple in the chest, the affairs of the world uneven like gravel beneath the water, wearing down the vulnerability in the depths of my heart, even Wang Yang cannot drown the grief and resentnt held within."
"The tears flowing from my eyes are a line of damp words, speaking sorrow, telling of distress, while the water resonates with your heartbeat, lapping against the stones on the shore, layer upon layer of waves, like words comforting , advising . I feel that helplessness of a drop in the ocean and suddenly understand the vastness that can encompass all rivers."
Luo Chao murmured softly, and at a certain mont, he finally opened his eyes!
At this mont, Luo Chao's pupils were as clear as water, he had an epiphany!
A heart at peace, I am water, water is the weakest, yet also the strongest!
Rumble——
Luo Chao felt a thunderous shock within him, anwhile, in the energy source within Luo Chao, dark golden energy rapidly gathered at a visible speed!
Step by step, gradually increasing, the life force energy was imnsely abundant!
He advanced!
Luo Chao felt a surge of wild joy in his heart, not expecting that the exchange with Zuo Dahai, Zuo Dahai's words, would suddenly enlighten him, allowing him to understand the True aning of Water!
And at this mont, Luo Chao's cultivation, which had been stagnant for several years, finally pierced through the last layer of window paper, successfully advancing to the next realm!
From this mont on, Luo Chao's strength surged dramatically. Power roared within him, and now Luo Chao even felt he could crush a tank with just one hand!
"Thank you! Brother Zuo, thank you. Thanks to you, I've advanced!" Luo Chao's face was full of excitent. If not for Zuo Dahai still driving, Luo Chao might have wanted to grab Zuo Dahai's hands and thank him profusely!
But there's no way around it; Luo Chao was simply too excited. No one could understand the joy of progressing in cultivation techniques more than Luo Chao at this mont, for he had waited too long for this mont!
Of course, Luo Chao's excitent wasn't solely due to the extent of the increase in power after his cultivation technique advanced.
The reason Luo Chao was so happy was because after his cultivation technique advanced, he could sense the sa cultivation technique aura as his master's!
Initially, Luo Chao's old master only taught him the First Layer of the cultivation technique to prevent him from finding him.
The old master explicitly said, "Luo Chao, I only teach you the First Layer of this technique because if I were to teach you the Second Layer, you would be able to sense my aura."
"However, if I directly pass on the Second Layer to you, it would greatly inconvenience my future actions because I don't want you to find ! Even if you find , with your current strength, it would be suicidal!"
"Therefore, if I don't pass this Second Layer to you, but you manage to break through on your own, you can co find because this proves your talent and potential."
"Once you find , I will pass on the remaining eight layers of this cultivation technique to you one by one. At that ti, after you complete the cultivation of all ten layers, I will have gained a new helper, hahaha!"
As these words were said by Luo Chao's old master after drinking, Luo Chao just regarded them as drunken ramblings and didn't take them to heart.
Until the day his master mysteriously disappeared, and his own cultivation technique showed no progress for several years, only then did Luo Chao recall the words his master said that night.
It can be said that from then on, Luo Chao was focused on enhancing his cultivation technique.
Because after becoming the Soldier King of the Dragon Fang Team, Luo Chao had traveled all over the world to carry out missions, but still didn't catch a glimpse of his old master.
And at that mont, Luo Chao was convinced that his master was a super being beyond the mundane world.
If he doesn't want to be found, then perhaps no one on this earth can find him.
But Luo Chao is unwilling. He has lived with his master for so many years that their relationship cannot be severed.
Moreover, he still has the agreent with his master to et after breaking through to the Second Layer.
Luo Chao doesn't want to be soone who rely gets by; he wants to prove his strength. He wants to beco his master's helper, to face the challenges his master faces together!
