Published at 7th of May 2019 06:35:12 AM Chapter 117

It was early in the next morning when Daedalus woke up, over the past few days it had become a habit of his . Currently Daedalus could be seen sitting at the side of a pond on a rock .

Daedalus had once read about a state of mind that was able to supposedly allow a greater control of all energies and the body as well . It was said to have come from an ancient being known only as a Buddhist or monk, it was called inner peace . Daedalus was seeing if he himself could tap into that state, if only to prove its existence .

He breathed calmly and steadily in with the movement of the water, and calmly out with the wind . He continued this in a trance like state where he felt the world around him breath within him . Unknowingly Daedalus had achieved a state of nothingness and calm that could only be described as legendary or unheard of .

After five days of being in that state Daedalus awoke to a feeling of calm and peacefulness . With that feeling came one thought 'So it does exist . '

As he stood back up from his days long meditation Daedalus felt his bones pop . After a quick round of stretching Daedalus realised that it had likely been a few days, however he wasn't hungry . He also felt that sense of peacefulness within him just rotating calmly within his dantian .

He was confused for a second but quickly came to a realisation, it was as if his Qi had taken on the properties of both Yin and Yang . It was impossible but he achieved it, he achieved the impossible . With that revelation Daedalus thought back to the book he read about the Buddhist, it had said something like 'Inner peace can cause a semi fusion of Yin and Yang within the dantian . ' This was the reason he had wanted to try it however what he had achieved was not a mere semi fusion it was a complete combination of Yin and Yang .

After coming to this conclusion Daedalus thought about why and how it could have happened . In the end he could only imagine it was because of his equal and high talent in both Yin and Yang .

With that conclusion made Daedalus calmed down and began practicing with Icarus . In the first few strings Daedalus felt a strange feeling, as if the world was speaking to him and every time he stopped swinging his sword it would disappear . With that thought Daedalus danced with Icarus in a natural sword dance as if he was being guided by the wind and soft falling rain . If anyone could see they would probably feel a sense of peace and beauty as they watched the sword dance that was being performed .

And in fact two people where watching and they had been watching since the start . They both knew what was happening, Daedalus had gained an enlightenment in the sword and with each graceful swing his understanding became more exquisite than the swing before .
