Dragon's Origin

Chapter 446: Inspiration from Music (Part 2)

A piece of "Butterfly Lovers" immersed the audience in a tragic love story, while a piece of "Spring River Flower Moon Night" made people feel the beauty of a spring night.

"Qing Xin Pu Shan Zhou" (Mantra of Purity and Universal Goodness) seemed to genuinely possess the ability to cleanse the heart, allowing people to empty their minds.

This piece, "Galloping Horses," made everyone feel as if they were on the vast grassland, facing the open plains, controlling their steeds, and galloping swiftly across the land.

Each piece of music contained a corresponding emotion. Those who could truly appreciate it were able to taste the emotion conveyed in the music, then empathize, immerse themselves, amplify it, and thoroughly comprehend the music.

Fortunately, this audience was filled with individuals possessing extremely high artistic appreciation. Even the dozen or so servants who stood out had been nurtured in scholarly families' residences for a long time, not to mention the ladies who had been studying music, chess, calligraphy, and painting since childhood.

Each piece of music, after being played, would elicit a burst of enthusiastic applause. Master Yu would always turn around to greet the audience before turning back to continue with the next piece.

Boom, boom, boom, boom! A series of drum sounds surprised everyone. Who would have thought that this piece would be played with such a large drum? The drum surface alone was as long as the height of two people combined.

Each heavy strike of the drumstick seemed to strike the hearts of everyone present. Involuntarily, even before the music entered the main melody, everyone could feel a surge of excitement.

The spiritual Qi in Wang Sheng's body also surged to its peak at this moment. With the heavy drumbeats, Wang Sheng's acupoints seemed to be dancing with the rhythm.

Every acupoint was rotating, and the Yin and Yang Qi within would condense a portion, but most of it would still only rotate in the acupoint before rushing to the next acupoint along the cultivation route.

Under the heavy drumbeats, the spiritual Qi entering each acupoint would rotate with the Yin and Yang Qi originally in the acupoint. After leaving, it would still maintain this rotating state until the next acupoint.

And in the other acupoint, it would rotate again. After the external spiritual Qi had rotated through a dozen or so acupoints, it had already formed a spiral state of Yin and Yang Qi rotation.

The spiral-shaped spiritual Qi would increase its angle of rotation with each acupoint it passed. After a complete cycle, the spiritual Qi was like a rope twisted dozens of times, compressed countless times, and full of elasticity.

Boom, boom, boom, boom! The stirring drumbeats of "The General's Command" continued, and Wang Sheng's spiritual Qi was fiercely impacting one cycle after another with the drumbeats.

As Wang Sheng took a long breath, unnoticed by everyone except Ling Xu, countless spiritual Qi gathered from all directions to the Royal Grand Theatre.

Because the Royal Grand Theatre was so large, even though there was a lot of spiritual Qi, neither the audience, the musicians inside, nor the Imperial Guards responsible for security outside noticed the change in spiritual Qi.

The old eunuch Shen outside seemed to faintly sense something, but seeing that it was the center of the Royal Grand Theatre, and thinking of the many formations he had checked, he didn't take it seriously. If all the formations inside were activated, it would be too normal to cause a little bit of spiritual Qi change.

The smile on Ling Xu's face grew even stronger. He listened to the wonderful and stirring General's Command, but his spiritual Qi sensed the changes in Wang Sheng's body.

Who would have thought that Wang Sheng could be inspired while enjoying the concert, fall into an unspeakable state of cultivation, and even trigger spiritual Qi body tempering, and yet only Ling Xu discovered it among so many people in the same theatre?

The spiritual Qi body tempering indicated that Wang Sheng's cultivation had returned to the first level within less than three days after being completely reduced to unranked. It might even not be three days, but only the time of listening to a concert, that he had achieved this effect.

This time, Wang Sheng's use of Qiankun Reversal (Universe Reversal) had truly given Wang Sheng a lot of insights! He just didn't know if this time he could completely solve the problem of Wang Sheng's relatively unstable foundation.

Blame Wang Sheng's previous promotion method, which was not based on spiritual Qi cultivation at all, but on some inexplicable methods. Hopefully, he can learn a lesson this time and make up for this defect!

The music continued, but Wang Sheng had already woken up from that mysterious realm. The spiritual Qi body tempering came quickly and went quickly. It was all completed in the time of four songs.

After all, Wang Sheng had already experienced an orthodox spiritual Qi body tempering once, when he was upgrading from unranked. This time, the spiritual Qi body tempering was mostly absorbed and stored by Wang Sheng's acupoints. When it was completely finished, Wang Sheng felt that his acupoints had become the size of broad beans.

"Upgraded?" Ling Xu's voice reached Wang Sheng's ears as soon as he opened his eyes.

Hearing the old Daoist's voice, Wang Sheng nodded slightly without showing any emotion. He knew that the old Daoist could definitely sense it, and he could definitely see his nod.

"How do you feel?" The old Daoist was very curious, and communicated with Wang Sheng using a secret method that only Wang Sheng could hear.

"A little regretful." Wang Sheng didn't have the old Daoist's ability. He leaned his head closer to the old Daoist's ear and said softly, "The Yin Qi is slightly insufficient, and the Yin and Yang are not balanced."

Ling Xu looked at Wang Sheng with some surprise, carefully examined him, and nodded slightly. With his eyesight, of course he could see that Wang Sheng had not yet reached that perfect state.

"Because of the music?" Ling Xu then asked curiously.

This time Wang Sheng did not continue to answer, but nodded lightly again, his attention returning to the performance.

Ling Xu didn't ask any more questions, but became even more curious about the piece that Wang Sheng said was only suitable for him to sing. The ones he had heard were already so wonderful, he wondered how wonderful the one specially prepared for him would be.

With bursts of applause, Master Yu finally led his orchestra to complete the performance of all the pieces this time.

When Master Yu and all the orchestra members stood up and bowed to the audience, all the audience, led by Wang Sheng, stood up and expressed their highest respect to Master Yu and others with the warmest applause. At the same time, they also thanked Master Yu and all the orchestra members for presenting a perfect performance to everyone. The first unofficial preview ended successfully.

The audience left in an orderly manner, and hundreds of beauties reappeared in a very short time, causing a group of Imperial Guard soldiers to lose their souls again.

The old eunuch Shen didn't notice these things at all, but when he saw Wang Sheng coming out, his expression obviously froze, and then he became thoughtful.
