Capítulo 24: Dao Heart
Having satisfied her curiosity, Xu Yue took a last look at the book and then threw it into her spatial bag.
She then went to her bedroom and went to sleep. A few minutes later, Xu Yue had managed to fall asleep.
Even after finding out something so shocking, knowing she was one of the beneficiaries, Xu Yue could relax. If some people knew her thoughts, they would call her hypocritical, and they would be right. Xu Yue also knew that she was hypocritical. The only problem is that she did not care in the slightest.
Xu Yue knew that she benefited from the suffering and oppression of others, but it did not make her lose any sleep. In fact, she felt extremely refreshed after a night of sleep.
"When will I reach master's cultivation," mumbled Xu Yue, thinking about how long surpassing her master would take while having a relaxing bath.
After she finished her bath, Xu Yue went to the training ground in her cave abode.
For some reason, today Xu Yue seemed even more enthusiastic about training than usual. Her improvement speed seemed to increase as well.
After finishing her usual training, Xu Yue was contemplating what caused her increased improvement speed. Usually, after training, Xu Yue summarises the effects of the training and compares it to previous days.
"Nothing physical has changed about me, not even the strength of my soul has increased," thought Xu Yue.
"It can only be a change in my thinking," though Xu Yue.
In the past few months, Xu Yue has discovered that her state of mind has great effects on her training speed. When she feels happy, her training speed somewhat increases. She also discovered that negative emotions have varying effects on training speed.
Anger can also have positive effects on her training speed, while feeling depressed will make it slow to a crawl.
"I feel slightly happy," thought Xu Yue
"Why am I happy?" asked herself Xu Yue
Xu Yue closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and asked herself this question. After around thirty minutes, all other answers were eliminated, and only one came to her mind.
"I am happy because others are below me," said Xu Yue, a small smile emerging on her face.
"Why is it like this?" asked herself Xu Yue once again.
An hour passed, Xu Yue stood still, not moving. If not for the fact that her breathing was stable, you wouldn't know.
As thirty more minutes passed, several fluctuations appeared next to Xu Yue. They could not be seen by those below the qi-sensing realm.
As she found the answer to her question, Xu Yue asked another one.
"Why am I like this?" asked Xu Yue, this time asking this question out loud.
As Xu Yue tried to answer the question, she found herself going to another question.
"Why do I cultivate?" asked herself Xu Yue.
As she asked herself these questions, the fluctuations seemed to transform into images.
Xu Yue knew the answer to this question. She had known it for a while, but she could not accept that this was the reason she cultivated so earnestly.
It wasn't protecting her family, both her father's and mother's cultivation bases were strong enough to protect themselves.
It wasn't eternal life. Xu Yue knew that she would be satisfied even if she did not live eternally.
The reason she cultivated was a shallow and selfish one. She wanted to be the most powerful. She wanted anyone that annoyed her to grovel at her feet and beg for forgiveness.
She wanted everything, she wanted to be the most powerful. She then thought of the two reasons for cultivating she had dismissed.
As she thought of them, her thinking started becoming even more extreme. How dare anyone try to threaten her family. She would torture them for ten thousand years and then destroy their soul.
She then thought of eternal life, she still did not desire it, a thought then entered Xu Yue's mind.
"How dare death try to control me," though Xu Yue.
As Xu Yue had this thought, she then thought of two other things, fate and the Heavenly Dao.
"How dare they try to control me!" growled Xu Yue.
"I should be the one in control," as this though entered Xu Yue's mind, everything else stopped.
Feng Shuchun suddenly opened her eyes and looked toward Xu Yue's cave abode. A moment ago, she felt spiritual qi fluctuations coming from there.
She then saw Xu Yue standing in the middle of a room, meditating. Surrounding her, it seemed as if space itself was being bent.
Dao Heart
Xu Yue's dao heart was being formed.
The Dao Heart represents what the cultivator truly desires from life.
Feng Shuchun took out a talisman and immediately contacted Wu Jing.
"What is it?" asked Wu Jing.
"Yue'er is condensing her Dao heart" said Feng Shuchun.
After a few moments, Feng Shuchun looked towards Xu Yue's cave abode and saw Wu Jing flying outside it.
Looking at the meditating Xu Yue, Wu Jing released her soul sense towards the space surrounding her. She was trying to see what effect Xu Yue's Dao heart was having on the surrounding space.
As Wu Jing's soul sense approached Xu Yue, she felt an overbearing force trying to make her submit. Feeling the effects of the force, Wu Jing approximately knew what type of Dao heart Xu Yue had.
"It's a type of Domination Dao Heart," thought Wu Jing.
Those with a domination Dao Heart usually desire to control, they want to be the most powerful and despise the feeling of being controlled, they are also the most likely ones to establish forces.
But feeling the effect of Xu Yue's dao heart and comparing it with others of its type made Wu Jing frown. It deviated an extreme amount from normal ones of its type.
Just as Wu Jing was thinking about this, she felt a cold feeling wash over her.
Looking at Xu Yue, she saw that, except for Xu Yue, the entire room she was in was completely frozen.
She ignored the 7 yang orb because she knew that it would only take effect if the frost damaged Xu Yue's body.
"She's unconsciously using the power of her soul," Wu Jing realized.
After a while, she retreated and started waiting for Xu Yue to regain consciousness.
