PART 2 TOGETHERNESS IN THE BAMBOO FOREST

In a quiet room, a moonlight slowly filled the room, calmly slipping through the gaps of the curtains that covered the room with each other.

Inside the room, a child was calmly sitting cross-legged absorbing the energy that was around him.

As the flashes of light gathered from various directions around the child's body formed a round of light, the light slowly moved into the supply, then formed a bundle of light, the collection of light was then purified in the child's body. The collection of spots of light slowly moving spread throughout the child's body the process was repeated over and over again.

If he looked at his cultivation, he was only a basic starter-level swordsman, but his mental strength was at least at the peak star realm primary level.

Basically the strength of a person in the gong Qi continent can be measured from three aspects, the first is physical strength, the second is spiritual power level, and the third is the skill level that is practiced.

However those three aspects were only used by people who were in the middle of the Qi level of strength, different from stronger people. As strong as a person is, the more consideration becomes in determining one's strength.

One is the level of mental strength, mental strength is the soul power that one possesses. Like Qi, this soul force can also increase one's physical strength. It was just that mental strength could not be increased by cultivation, it was like luck coming from the heavens.

Mental strength sometimes increases when a person experiences a state that suppresses him to a certain point, if he manages to pass through it it is like getting good luck from heaven, it will naturally increase his soul power.

It is said that the earlier warriors greatly respected people with strong soul force. Attacks with soul force, are even harder to know and avoid by enemies than attacks with ordinary spiritual power.

After quite a long time cultivating that child who was Qin tian slowly opened his eyes ending the cultivation he was doing.

The white mist that covered Qin tian's body slowly faded and disappeared along with Qin tian stopping his cultivation, until the fog completely disappeared from his body.

“Sial! I can't even grow even a little!” qin Tian muttered to himself.

“hemm” Qin tian took a deep breath, he closed his eyes the cold air slowly entered his body the air was slightly giving him peace of mind.

“Huhh” He let go of the breath slowly, hoping that the problem he was thinking about was a little detached along with the breath he exhaled. He kept on repeating the nicks and let out his breath, hoping it could win him over until he finally really felt a little calm.

“I have to keep practicing whatever happens” Qin tian got up from his seat and laid himself on the bed.

Slowly Qin tian folded his hands together then placed them behind his head, his gaze staring up at the sky of his room.

He kept thinking of ways to increase his strength, until he subconsciously fell asleep in his sleep.

…. …. …. ….

In the same bamboo forest, Qin tian resumed his physical training.

Qin tian trained his physique during the day, and cultivated at night. I hope his cultivation can improve for the better.

“whuss...” The air blows softly, the softness of the air does not even move the bamboo leaf in the slightest.

Qin tian stopped his practice, calmly walked over and sat down on a rock.

“Dad, come out I already know father is there” said Qin tian directed his gaze towards the west where he sat.

“Ha ha ha... father's son is indeed great.” A middle-aged man came out from among the bamboo trees and approached Qin tian who was sitting on a rock.

“Daddy is too complimentary..” Qin tian said with a wry smile.

“Do you think I'm kidding Tian er?” said that figure who was Qin Meng Tian the father of Qin tian with a sincere smile.

“Although now your father is a cripple, I am not as weak as you think” Qin Meng Tian smiled wryly lamenting at him who could not even condense the spiritual energy in his body.

“then what does that have to do with my strength dad?” qin tian asked

“Father sure although your cultivation level is only at the basic beginner level, but your soul power is at least already at the first star intermediate earth level, if my perception is not wrong.”.

“Soul power?” Qin tian asked starting to be enthusiastic.

“In addition to the level of spiritual power, one also has soul power. Soul power naturally grew along with the growth of a person, its development was much slower than the development of spiritual power, and it could not be increased by anything, it was like a blessing from the heavens. As for your case, father himself does not know about it”

“Why can't I feel it dad?”

“Only those who have special techniques can feel it, as for you, gradually you will also get used to feeling it” Qin meng tian looked at his daughter gently with a smile.

“Does father..’ Qin tian paused the word he looked at the father as if asking.

“Ha ha…. Of course not, such a technique is only people from large clans or certain sects who have it.” Qin meng tian replied as if he knew what Qin tian was asking

“How can father know about my soul power?”

“Tian. Other than the person who possessed the special technique, the soul force user could also sense it, and if he was not a soul force user, he could also sense it, then it was certain that he was a high level cultivator” Qin meng tian explained what he knew about soul force to his son.

“Dad don't tell me if my father's cultivation first.” Qin tian once again paused his words and looked at his father.

“Don't overdo it, anyway it's all just a memory of this time” Qin meng tian said with a wry smile.

“If only the power of the father does not disappear..” Qin tian thoughtfully hoped that if his father's strength did not disappear at this time maybe he would not be treated that way by the other clan members.

“Dad. How can you tell by the current level of my soul power, isn't your strength gone”

“Tian er, the power of the father does not disappear, the power of the father is only sealed because of the poison that is in the body of the father,” Qin meng tian said while remembering the events that are very sad for him. His gaze laughed considering the barrage of events that had happened to him as he lost most of the cultivation he had built back then in order to protect the one he loved the most.

“But you don't think about finding a cure for me. Tian er” continued Qin meng tian as if he knew what his son was thinking

“Why Daddy?” qin tian asked

“because no one can treat it” said Qin meng tian sadly, but still trying to show his smile.

“In addition father had also learned the basic techniques of soul power” Qin meng tian herded Qin Tkan on another talk so as not to dissolve in the painful past.

They then talked about cultivating warmly in that place.

“Tian er, in the western region, the peak king level cultivation appears as the strongest, but you should know that out there many forces are more terrible than that. If you meet a weak person you must also be vigilant, it could be that he is a strong person in disguise. That was their custom” Qin meng tian explained

“If one day you pass through the eastern border region of the clan, then avoid the forbidden territory in the east. If I am not mistaken there is a very strong aura, even stronger than what I have felt in my entire life” Qin meng tian warned

Qin meng tian then went back to explaining about cultivation

“To measure a person's level of strength, in addition to looking at his cultivation strength we also have to look at the level of skill he uses and the physical strength he has, that is the basic calculation for the middle-level swordsman”

“But if you are already at a high level, then the aspect of your assessment should also increase, and start from now on to get used to it. In addition to the three aspects, there is also mental strength, as I said before”

“According to what I know mental strength consists of three levels, earth level, sky, and heaven, at each level bounded by three realms namely the middle and the peak base, the, and at each realm bounded by the three star” Qin Meng Tian explained in detail what he knew about the martial world.

Without feeling the warm conversation lasted until the afternoon.

As the sun shone the twilight of the child and the father finally ended their conversation and prepared to return home.
