Chapter 22: Awakening of Power
Glory slowly lifted his head, gazing into the distance, feeling the gentle caress of the night wind on his face. A soft whistle pierced the air, and without seeming to move, he was already dozens of meters away, speeding towards the distant high mountain with incredible speed. A shadowy figure streaked across the night sky, like a shooting star, arriving at the foot of the mountain in the blink of an eye. Looking up at the summit, his thoughts stirred, and the power of "nothingness" filled his body. His form flickered as he leapt upwards, just as he was about to fall, his toes pointed towards the cliff face and he sprang upwards again, reaching the summit after several bounds.
Standing on the mountaintop, I close my eyes and stretch out my hands to feel the howling mountain wind. It's as if I'm embracing heaven and earth. Opening my eyes, I summon the power of "need", and a blue transparent light ball appears in my hand. With a casual flick of my wrist towards a massive boulder tens of meters away, it silently disintegrates into powder that scatters with the wind.
Is this the power of "emptiness"? The heart is filled with grandeur, and the strength surges through the body. Without hesitation, I leap off the cliff, the thrill of rapid descent fills my chest, and another long whistle echoes through the entire valley, landing in an instant.
The next morning, Rongyao sat on the kang, activated the power of "Xu", and opened up all the pores on his body. The energy from the outside world formed countless small whirlpools, pouring into his body through the pores. After an unknown period of time, his body could no longer withstand it, and he slowly stopped. Rongyao knew that for now, he could only use the original power of "Xu". When the power of "Xu" fully merged with his body, he would be able to use all the energy in the world. At that time, he would be invincible, and no one in the world would be able to match him.
Rong Yao jumped up excitedly and burst out laughing. "What's so funny? You little scamp, you're going crazy early in the morning, you scared me half to death! Are you looking for a beating?" Just then, his mother walked into the house with a kitchen knife in her left hand and a ladle in her right. She tapped Rong Yao on the head with the ladle. "Ow!" Rong Yao's laughter stopped abruptly. He rubbed his sore head: "Mom, can't you be gentler? You're getting more and more violent, not like when I was little and you were so gentle... Be careful or Dad will find a younger wife outside." "You little brat, you really are asking for it!" she said, raising the ladle to hit him again. Rong Yao dodged quickly and slipped past his mother's side.
Rong's mother raised the spoon in her hand and stopped in mid-air, rubbing her eyes. "Huh? Where is he?" Rong shouted proudly from outside: "Old mom, you really need to be gentler, just like when you were young. Only then can dad love you more and more, otherwise, when the time comes, I'll find a stepmom for you and you won't even have time to cry."
Rong's mother saw Rong's figure disappear outside the gate through the window. "This little brat runs so fast, not at all like when he was a kid and listened to me. Nowadays, he just knows how to talk nonsense from dawn till dusk. Hmm, when did he run out? How come I didn't see him? Am I really not gentle at all?" She shook her head suspiciously.
Honor came to Grandpa Zhang's house and handed him the secret book. Grandpa Zhang hesitated before taking it, asking: "Why didn't you practice?" Honor nodded in response. Grandpa Zhang sighed: "Yes, if we don't practice, then so be it. Not just that you've practiced for six years, even I have practiced my whole life and still haven't felt anything. Our ancestors have always doubted its authenticity, but since it was left behind by our ancestors, we couldn't bear to throw it away. Actually, I never believed it was fake, giving it to you is just to see if you have the fate."
Actually, Glory knew that this secret book was not fake. When the Needles Force appeared that day, when looking at this secret book, it was known that it was not fake. This secret book is the primary heart method of cultivating the truth, and only those with a pre-heavenly body can cultivate this secret book. If Glory hadn't cultivated this secret book, the Needles Force wouldn't have appeared so early. It was because of cultivating this secret book that the Needles Force in Glory's soul was sensed, which is why it appeared.
