Chapter 38: A Real Pro in This Field

The night grew even deeper.

Su Ming remained seated cross-legged on that bluestone slab, but he felt the entire world had become different.

After he completely withdrew that warm "yang energy" within him back into the depths of his Dantian, he was like a person walking from a noisy marketplace into a silent mountain forest.

In the past, his own life aura was the first filter through which he perceived the world, constantly radiating outward and constantly interfering with his reception of the external environment.

Now, that filter had disappeared.

He could "hear" a cricket in the corner of the courtyard wall tirelessly rubbing its wings, every beat of that sound distinctly discernible. He could "smell" the scent of moist water vapor from the distant mountain stream carried on the gentle breeze. He could even "feel" the coolness, accumulated over years, deep within the bluestone beneath his feet, slowly creeping up his body strand by strand.

This sensation was too novel, too powerful.

Was this the world of cultivators?

He immersed himself in this entirely new experience for a long time, but then a thought uncontrollably surfaced.

It was too fast.Everything happened too fast. From Master beginning to explain the Aura Concealment Art, to him mastering "Concealing Qi and Returning to Origin," it took barely an hour. This was completely different from the immortal techniques he imagined, which would require months or even years of arduous cultivation just to get started.

This defied common sense.

He was no heaven-defying prodigy; he had that much self-awareness.

"Master," Su Ming called out softly in his heart.

"Hmm?" Lin Yu's voice sounded somewhat lazy, carrying a trace of satisfaction.

Lin Yu thought to himself: "Not bad, not bad, the boy is teachable. Picking it up this fast saved me so much breath. Next, I just need him to permanently weld this state onto himself, and I can sleep soundly. The first step for a gold-standard bodyguard, secured!"

"Disciple has something he doesn't understand," Su Ming organized his words and cautiously asked, "I feel... I feel the process of learning this Aura Concealment Art was a bit strange. It didn't feel like I was struggling to learn it, more like... it drilled into my brain on its own. I was just following an already existing template and replicating it."
