Chapter 192: Yin dao
Shortly after the ice lance had sunk into Miuna’s palms, a new ice lance that was black in color was shot out from Miuna’s palms and into Dave’s direction.
Upon seeing that Miuna had shot out an ice lance at him, Dave decided to shoot out another ice lance to counter the ice lance.
However, to his surprise, the moment his ice lance had came into contact with Miuna’s ice lance, his ice lance was immediately shattered by Miuna’s ice lance.
With a startled look on his face, Dave hurriedly shot out another ice lance, and this time, because of being startled, he actually shot out an ice lance without holding back his spiritual energy.
Evidently, during the first time that Dave had shot out an ice lance at Miuna, Dave purposely held back his spiritual energy when he manifested the ice lance.
Though, to everyone’s surprise, Dave’s ice lance was once again shattered by Miuna’s ice lance the moment his ice lance had came into contact with Miuna’s ice lance.
Evidently, Miuna’s ice lance was way stronger than Dave’s ice lance!
Right before the ice lance was about to land onto Dave, Ning Zhi suddenly appeared in front of the ice lance, followed by grabbing onto the ice lance with her right hand.
Shortly after inspecting onto the black color ice lance that she was holding in her right hand...
Ning Zhi looked over to Miuna while with her eyes opened wide.
"You managed to comprehend one of the hardest heavenly daos to comprehend, the heavenly dao of yin?!"
Upon hearing what Ning Zhi said, everyone else aside from Sebastian immediately opened their eyes wide too as they looked over to Miuna and waited for Miuna’s answer.
"Dao...? What’s that?"
Upon hearing what Ning Zhi said, a confused look appeared on Miuna’s face as she asked with her head slightly tilted to the side.
It was normal that Miuna would have no idea about what dao was. After all, most cultivators only start learning about what dao was when they had finally arrived at golden core realm.
Though, although Miuna had no idea about what dao was, she was aware of the word "yin".
Thus, Miuna asked with an unsure tone in her voice.
"Elder Zhi, do you mean yin energy...? Because, if that’s what you are referring to, a bunch of information regarding yin energy did appear in my mind a while ago."
Right after Miuna finished speaking, Ning Zhi appeared right beside Miuna, then took out a blue color crystal that fit in the palm of her hand and handed it over to Miuna.
"Here, hold onto this."
"Since you have managed to break into foundation establishment realm, you should have awakened your spiritual sense, right?"
Upon hearing Ning Zhi’s question, Miuna nodded her head and let out a groan, "En."
"Alright. This thing that you are holding in your hand right now, it is known as a water essence crystal. What I want you to do now is to control your spiritual sense and seep your spiritual sense into the water essence crystal."
"Got it. Let me try..."
After closing her eyes, Miuna began to control her spiritual sense, followed by entering into the water essence crystal with her spiritual sense.
Because this was practically the first time that Miuna was using her spiritual sense, it took a while for Miuna to be able to properly control her spiritual sense.
Upon sensing that Miuna’s spiritual sense had entered into the water essence crystal, Ning Zhi then said to Miuna.
"Now, similar to what you would do when absorbing the spiritual energy that is contained within an energy stone, whereby you would revolve your cultivation technique, followed by absorbing the spiritual energy within the energy stone into your body..."
"I want you to try and absorb the water essence that is contained within the water essence crystal into your body. However, since you don’t cultivate a water-based cultivation technique, I want you to try absorbing onto the essence by using your spiritual sense."
Right after Ning Zhi finished speaking, Miuna began doing what Ning Zhi had told her to do.
Initially, Miuna thought that it was going to be difficult for her to do what Ning Zhi had told her to do, after all, Ning Zhi was being so solemn while instructing her.
However, Miuna quickly found out that it was incredibly easy, and that absorbing the essence within the water essence crystal felt pretty much no different from absorbing the spiritual energy within an energy stone, except for the fact that it took much more effort to absorb a water essence crystal than to absorb an energy stone.
In just what seemed like 10 seconds had passed since Ning Zhi had just finished speaking, Miuna had managed to begin absorbing the water essence, despite the speed in which she was absorbing the water essence was actually rather slow.
Nonetheless, when Ning Zhi sensed that Miuna had really actually managed to absorb the water essence, her eyes immediately opened wide as she looked back and forth between Miuna and the water essence crystal.
After letting out a deep breath, Ning Zhi finally opened her mouth and said to Miuna.
"Alright, good job Miuna, you can stop now."
Upon hearing what Ning Zhi said, Miuna retracted her spiritual sense, then opened her eyes and handed the water essence crystal back to Ning Zhi.
"It’s fine, you can keep this water essence crystal. This water essence crystal should be enough to help you break through to level 6 of foundation establishment realm once you are done absorbing all of the essence within it."
Right after Ning Zhi finished speaking, Ning Zhi placed her palm onto Miuna’s shoulder, then began walking back over to Sebastian and the others.
Upon arriving in front of Sebastian and the others, Ning Zhi said to Coril and the others.
"Yep, Miuna has indeed managed to comprehend the yin dao, albeit her understanding of the yin dao is merely at level 1 fundamental understanding."
