章 13: Spirit Pressure & Training

Shiva began to study the "Soul Sutra".

Even though Shiva wants to stay focused on the sword and become a sword immortal, if he ever loses or gets' his sword taken, he can't leave himself completely helpless in a situation like that.

So, instead of solely focusing on the sword, Shiva will use his Spirit Energy to utterly crush his opponents with a single movement or even just eye contact.

Shiva is now feeling the wisps' of his spirit energy in his soul.

Suddenly!

Boom

"Ahh"

Shiva screamed from the amount of pressure of his soul energy directly landing on his body.

What Shiva didn't understand is, why is soul so strong!?

Since Shiva started to cultivate the Yggdrasil Art, he will experience an all around tempering.

From his hair to his soul. Every part of him will eventually be comparable to the Yggdrasil tree from Norse mythology.

The Yggdrasil tree from Norse mythology is an impenetrable and un-dying force of nature. The vitality alone could squash Norse gods.

Shiva stopped struggling under his pressure and let up on it.

The ground, grass, rocks, and trees two meters around him were absolutely crushed due to his spirit pressure.

Shiva was silent for a few moments trying to situate himself.

"Damn!" yelled Shiva

For Shiva that was a anime fan in his past life was totally exhilarated.

"Let's just calm myself and think"

...

Ten Minutes Later

Shiva was in his cave, lying on the stone platform with his eyes shut.

He was thinking

'well this is cool'.

Shiva is examining his meridians and acupoints to figure out where he could channel his spirit energy into his circulatory system.

Although he doesn't know how or why spirit energy is generated in the soul.

One should know that...

Spirit Qi is a source of energy. It was like air. It exist everywhere throughout the planet with some places denser and others thinner. You can't manipulate it like you can with Spirit Energy.

Where as a Spirit Energy user can create, shape and manipulate their own or others' spiritual power, which is generated by every sentient being that possesses a soul, or in places with powerful spiritual influence. They can convert it into various forms of energy, manifest it into solid form, or merge into existing objects.

In simpler terms; Spirit Qi comes from the environment. That's why Shiva wished for an extremely high affinity for nature. Then we have Spirit Energy; This energy comes' from the mind, soul, and conciseness. That's another reason why Shiva wished for supreme talent in the mage/magus arts.

Although he is still young, he has the mind and attention span of an middle aged man.
