Chapter 19: Resonance between Heaven and Earth, Unity of Heaven and Man (4.5k)
Although Shen Gang was unable to accept it for the time being, he was not unreasonable. After all, the transfer order had already been issued.
Finally, seeing that there was no way to change Shen Mu's mind, he returned to Luanhe Base that day to handle the handover and returned to Shangchangshan City to take up his post within a week at the latest.
……
That night, Shen Mu and his mother Chen Wen took a king-class fighter to Jincheng, one of the Acropolis of Kyoto Base City.
In a townhouse community in the suburbs of Tianjin.
Shen Mu came to Tang Yongqing's house to get to know the family on a whim. His mother Chen Wen had just communicated with Tang Yongqing's parents in the morning, so the Tang family seemed quite hurried.
Even Tang Yongqing and her brother Tang Yongyuan took temporary leave to return to Tianjin.
All the members of the Tang family were in the living room on the first floor of the villa.
Mother Chen Wen first took Shen Mu to recognize the oldest elder, Luo Hongqin: "Ah Mu, this is your grandmother Luo Hongqin, come and say hello."
"Hello, Grandma Luo." Shen Mu greeted politely.
"Okay, okay, good boy, you don't have to be so polite." The old lady looked very kind, and she did not have any different attitude just because Shen Mu was a member of parliament.
In addition to the old lady, Tang Yongqing's parents Tang Cheng and his wife and his younger brother Tang Yongyuan all felt very uncomfortable and didn't know how to face Shen Mu.
Next, Chen Wen introduced everyone to Shen Mu, starting with Mr. and Mrs. Tang Cheng.
Tang Cheng is a teacher at Kyoto University, and his wife Lin Yuying is Chen Wen’s high school classmate and also from Changshan.
After graduating from high school, Lin Yuying was successfully admitted to the best university in the base city, and Chen Wen chose martial arts. Lin Yuying also married to Jincheng because she met Tang Cheng in college.
Seeing that the Tang family members were very unnatural and even a little restrained, Chen Wen said, "Amu, this is the first time you and Xiaoqing have met. Let's go out for a walk together."
"Okay, Mom." Shen Mu naturally had no objection to this.
Tang Yongqing couldn't stand this awkward atmosphere anymore, so he followed Shen Mu out.
On the streets of the community, the street lamps were dim, making the shadows of the two people somewhat blurry.
Shen Mu glanced at Tang Yongqing beside him, walking cautiously.
"Sister Yongqing, don't you have anything to ask?"
Shen Mu turned around and looked at Tang Yongqing beside him.
In terms of appearance, Tang Yongqing is also very outstanding, with just the right slender curves and a face value of 8 or 9 points, coupled with a scholarly temperament, which gives her a special charm.
It was precisely because of this that Tang Yongqing was targeted by the playboy of the Wang family, who even gave her a perfect score and used various means to force Tang Yongqing.
"I... I don't know what to say. I just... suddenly feel like we are not from the same world."
A look of confusion appeared in Tang Yongqing's eyes.
When she was first targeted and harassed by Wang Xing'an, Tang Yongqing's parents began to use their connections to see if they could solve this problem, so Lin Yuying turned to Chen Wen for help.
Chen Wen saw that Tang Yongqing was good-looking, had been admitted to university at the age of 15, and had just turned 20 this year to become a full-time researcher at an institute affiliated to the Chinese Academy of Sciences. She also had excellent abilities, so she became interested.
Then Chen Wen told Shen Mu that he was a student of the God of War Training Camp. Since it was called the God of War Training Camp, it was because as long as the students here graduated successfully, they could become God of War-level strongmen.
Then Chen Wen suggested that Lin Yuying spread the news that Shen Mu and Tang Yongqing were engaged as children.
Although the Wang family is powerful, they will not offend a future god of war because of the dissolute behavior of a junior. The gain will not outweigh the loss.
Lin Yuying knew that all the students in the God of War Training Camp would become Gods of War after graduation, and thought that it would be nice to have a son-in-law who was a God of War in the future. The two families knew each other well, and the pair of best friends hit it off.
"I've told you a long time ago that your fiancé is very capable and will graduate from the training camp early, but you always treated it as a joke."
As Shen Mu spoke, he reached out and held Tang Yongqing's hand.
Tang Yongqing symbolically pulled his hand back with a look of grievance, and muttered softly, "How could I have thought you were so powerful? My brain went blank when I saw the announcement for the Extreme Martial Arts School."
In fact, Tang Yongqing's mental journey at the beginning was very simple. Her dream was to become the greatest female scientist in China, and she had basically no requirements for love.
As long as it doesn't affect her research in the future, even if her future partner is an ordinary person, an ordinary married life would be fine.
Therefore, she was not resistant to her mother Lin Yuying's introduction. After all, it must be more reliable if it had been approved by her biological mother.
When she first video-called Shen Mu, she had a basic liking for him because of his looks. After a few more chats, she felt Shen Mu's support for her pursuit of her ideals, so they decided to have a romantic relationship.
After all, it is not easy to find a boyfriend who is good-looking, capable enough, and supports her ideals.
"Sister Yongqing, have you flown?" Shen Mu suddenly changed the subject. When he looked into it, he felt that he was in the wrong. After all, he had never seriously told Tang Yongqing his true situation for fear of scaring her.
Tang Yongqing was stunned by Shen Mu's question and said blankly: "Is it the kind of flying I understand?"
“It literally flies!”
Shen Mu held Tang Yongqing's hand, and then a flat landscape stone on the green belt next to them floated up and instantly appeared in front of the two of them.
Then Shen Mu stepped onto the landscape stone and stretched out his hand to Tang Yongqing, saying, "Come up."
"Oh, here it comes."
Tang Yongqing took Shen Mu's hand and stepped onto the landscape stone. The next moment, the speed of the landscape stone increased dramatically and shot straight into the sky.
The fear of heights and the sense of speed made Tang Yongqing pale with fear. She looked at the blurry scenery on the ground, holding Shen Mu's hand tightly, her plump chest heaving violently.
"Slow down, slow down!"
"okay!"
Shen Mu took Tang Yongqing in his arms and not only did he not slow down, but he sped up even faster.
A moment later, the shrill alarm sounded in the Tianjin Air Defense Command Center.
A bald middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the information and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"So it turns out that Councillor Shen is looking for excitement with his girlfriend. That's fine. All right, all clear."
……
While Shen Mu was flying into the sky holding the beautiful girl, the Qinglong clone was practicing hard far away in the ocean.
hold head high!
The long and deep dragon roar echoed beneath the sea, and countless monsters in the sea were trembling in fear at the terrifying momentum.
A dark green dragon was tumbling in the deep sea, and the streams of light formed by the bone cones around its body were moving along a specific trajectory.
Boom!
The undercurrents in the sea were surging, and under the control of the twelve bone cones, they collided with each other, emitting bursts of dull roars.
“The first step to achieving harmony between man and nature is to try to integrate into heaven and earth.”
The Azure Dragon's clone is originally a life form in the ocean. When it reaches the realm of unity between man and nature, it has advantages that humans cannot match.
hold head high!
There was another loud dragon roar. After his body movement and spear skills reached the state of mind, Shen Mu had been trying to resonate with heaven and earth for about a month, but he had not been able to find a clue.
Shen Mu could sense that his marksmanship and body movements, which were merely at the artistic conception level, were not enough to reflect his understanding of the water in the ocean, but he could not find a way to go further.
"Since we can't find a way, let's break through through pressure!"
Qinglong opened his eyes, and the vast and boundless spiritual power surged around his body, echoing the waves of the ocean currents.
There are no less than a hundred king-level monsters in the Western Pacific Ocean, of which only two have reached the second planetary level. Their territories are also close to the Chinese waters, so they are extremely famous in human society.
One of them is Shen Mu’s East China Sea Azure Dragon clone, and the other is the poisonous jellyfish king!
"You are the one!"
The next moment, the huge figure of the green-scaled dragon seemed to turn into an illusory stream of light, rapidly passing through the ocean at a speed of more than a thousand meters per second.
If flying in the air, Shen Mu's Azure Dragon clone has the advantage of size, but its speed is only about 700 meters per second at most. But if flying in the ocean, swimming forward is faster than flying in a vacuum, and the water filling the entire space will become his power.
Before becoming Shen Mu's clone, the Azure Dragon of the East China Sea had always been at odds with the Poisonous Jellyfish King. The two even had adjacent territories in the ocean.
About fifteen minutes later, Shen Mu traveled thousands of kilometers and entered the territory of the poisonous jellyfish king.
"hold head high!"
A provocative dragon roar, accompanied by mental power, quickly spread in all directions.
A moment later, a strange green color suddenly burst out from the sea in the distance.
In the strange green waters, one can vaguely see an almost transparent figure. The umbrella-shaped shadow is more than 30 meters in diameter, and there are countless fine translucent whiskers dancing around it, releasing terrifying toxins.
Countless long tentacles dance, and vibration waves that are difficult for humans to perceive spread out, which can be understood as the chirping of jellyfish.
boom!
At this moment, the two dominant monsters in the Western Pacific were facing each other head-on.
The vast and endless mental power was surging, but the equally poisonous jellyfish king was also madly releasing its own toxins, thereby greatly weakening Shen Mu's mental power.
"hold head high!"
I am no longer the person I was before. If you don’t fight hard, you will die!
The majestic mental power swept over, controlling the endless flow of water and evolving a solemn and vast artistic conception.
In an instant, the giant jellyfish seemed to feel that the entire sea was rejecting it.
"Woo——"
In the sound wave frequency band that humans cannot hear, the jellyfish king's somewhat shocked cry was heard.
His old enemy, the Azure Dragon, suddenly possessed the special abilities that only strong humans could have.
Boom!
There seemed to be an explosion in the deep sea, and the Jellyfish King knew that if he didn't fight desperately, it would be really over.
The huge transparent jellyfish suddenly lit up with dazzling light, and endless force was surging. Two greenish planets could be seen moving in the endless force.
Endless tentacles carrying terrifying wood-attributed force and poison whipped towards Shen Mu. Each of those countless tentacles possessed a tremendous force that was at the limit of the second-level planetary level.
The countless tentacles are like countless hands. Although there is basically no skill in exerting force, just like a mentalist controlling objects, the power of all the tentacles is pulled towards one direction, and the impact force will be superimposed together.
But the source of all this power ultimately comes from those two miniature Force stars. Such a desperate and full-strength burst would only last for a minute or two at most and would exhaust all the Force.
hold head high!
The Qinglong clone let out an excited dragon roar, just wanting this kind of oppressive feeling.
Faced with the desperate fight of the Jellyfish King, the Azure Dragon clone entered a suppressed state.
At this moment, above the sea surface, it seemed as if a hurricane was born out of nowhere, raising terrifying waves and huge waves, rushing in all directions.
Under the sea, two powerful king-level monsters are fighting for their lives.
The jellyfish king who fights with all his might will eventually become weaker as time goes by.
Under this oppression, Shen Mu's vast mental power blended with the waves of endless ocean currents, searching for that mysterious resonance.
"Woo!"
In just one minute, the Poisonous Jellyfish King felt that his power was about to be exhausted. In the face of life and death crisis, he let out a wail, and the Force in his body overloaded and exploded, causing himself to be damaged by the violent Force.
The power of the tentacles increased again, just enough to break through Shen Mu's mental power and defense and pierce into the gaps in the scales.
The horrible poison spread, bringing with it a burning pain.
In just a few seconds, under the final attack of the jellyfish king, countless tiny wounds appeared all over the body of the Qinglong clone, and endless poison spread throughout Shen Mu's body in the blink of an eye.
Severe pain, weakness and other negative conditions emerged from the body of the East China Sea Azure Dragon, as if the offense and defense had changed in the blink of an eye.
"Ow!"
Amid the horrific pain and crisis, a special impulse emerged from the genes.
This is the murderous nature that has been dormant in the bloodline of the East China Sea Azure Dragon since it became Shen Mu's clone, and now it has revived again.
At this moment, Shen Mu's consciousness and the instincts of this clone finally merged. The original feeling of disharmony and unnaturalness completely disappeared, and there was no longer any barrier between the soul and the body.
At this moment, Shen Mu's mental power, with its surging waves, resonated with the cosmic energy floating between heaven and earth.
hum!
An invisible wave swept out from the body of the East China Sea Azure Dragon, and all the toxins that had originally seeped into the body were expelled through the wounds. Although the injuries caused by the toxins were still there, they would not continue to worsen.
At this moment, Shen Mu suddenly had a special perception. This was not a telepathic perception, but a vague and indescribable perception.
Wow!
The endless ocean current surged again, and as Shen Mu's mental power spread, the cosmic energy contained in it resonated with Shen Mu's mental power.
boom!
Under the control of telekinesis, the endless waters were compressed madly, suppressing the transparent jellyfish firmly in place.
shhhhhh!
The bone cones turned into streams of light, gathered together under Shen Mu's control, and then suddenly shot out.
Boom!
The endless stream of water exploded once again, and twelve bone spikes instantly shot into the body of the poisonous jellyfish king, and then suddenly spread and stirred, instantly annihilating this once unkillable enemy in the blink of an eye.
……
Outside of Kyoto Base City, above the endless wilderness area.
Shen Mu, who was flying with Tang Yongqing in his arms while steering the rock, suddenly stopped, and the flat landscape stone also hovered in the air.
The next moment, endless mental power spread out, and this time, relying on his vague perception, he sensed the cosmic energy floating in the void.
Moreover, by simulating the fluctuations of cosmic energy through mental power, one can resonate with the cosmic energy and enhance the power of one's own mental power.
"Amu...what happened?"
Tang Yongqing hugged Shen Mu nervously, looking down at the wilderness area below him. He could hear the roars of beasts one after another and his face turned pale.
"Don't worry, it's a good thing. Being with you has freed me from thoughts, and a bottleneck in my martial arts has suddenly loosened, and my strength has improved."
Shen Mu came back to his senses and looked at Tang Yongqing with a smile.
"You're so nice!" Tang Yongqing wasn't as shy as a little girl, but her eyes and eyebrows were curved, and she was obviously very happy to hear Shen Mu's words.
"Come on, let's go home."
"it is good!"
On the way back, Shen Mu was still sensing the cosmic energy between heaven and earth.
Normally, if one does not remain calm and carefully sense the cosmic energy, even a planetary-level warrior will not be able to sense the existence of cosmic energy under normal circumstances.
But when you enter the realm of unity between man and nature, that vague perception is as if you have entered the state of practicing the five hearts toward heaven, and you can vaguely perceive the existence of cosmic energy.
Shen Mu finally understood the mystery of the unity of man and nature.
The so-called unity of man and nature means getting rid of the limitations of physical movements and combat skills, directly controlling the Force and telekinesis, displaying one's own understanding of heaven and earth, and resonating with the energy of the universe.
But it can only resonate with the cosmic energy and guide the cosmic energy to attack, but it cannot mobilize the cosmic energy at will like controlling one's own force and telekinesis.
As for the domain level that comes after that, Shen Mu speculates that it should not just be a simple resonance with the cosmic energy, but a direct manipulation of the cosmic energy to form a domain that suppresses everything.
This chapter enriches Tang Yongqing's character, and there won't be many scenes after that. It's a long chapter of nearly 5,000 words, and it's absolutely full of sincerity. Brothers, please give the author your recommendation votes and monthly tickets.
