Heart Cultivation

He could see how upright was her ways and despite knowing the fact that she cannot fight against powerful enemy she did not back down, just to secure treasure and fulfill her punishment.

Jen got back treasure and fell on the ground while the man left in hurry, he was scared when he came out of his illusion, he don"t want to lose his more precious weapon for this treasure.

He had deep belonging for this weapon and don"t want to separate from it.

The bugs and the birds were worried when they saw her vestige falling down, they all flew and made a protective net in the air, up from the ground and let her body land on the safe wall of their feathers and not get harmed by directly hitting ground.

The soft cus.h.i.+on of thousands over tiny protectors was able to safely bring her on the ground.

Jen was unconscious because she reached her limit during this dangerous move, few birds who were stronger and could fly fast reached at the Swan Lake and carried some water in their peaks, they returned and sprinkled on her face.

But there was no sign that she would awake soon.

Before they could think of another way, they saw one of the Core Expert appear there, he looked at the girl and one could see concern on his mature yet handsome face, he was as elegant as the other core experts.

He could see stealers were gone and the Heart of the Sea stone was in her possession now.

He extended his hand to pick her up in his arms, he slowly walked because these thousands of bugs and birds were blocking his path, "Senior Core Expert, I dare not to offend but I wanted to ask if miss Jen is alright?" the glow worm took courage and asked the expert.

"She will be alright, you all should go back now," the expert took her responsibility and then the bugs and birds cleared path for him.

He saw the birds leaving and looked at the girl in his arms, there was slight smile on his lips, he headed back toward the core region.

He reached the central waterfall adjacent to the first lair of Inner Core, inner core was resident abodes for experts and respected members of the core were not allowed to enter inner core, only five experts can stay there and leave at their will.

He dipped his hand in the water and sprinkled on her face, she was still unconscious, it was the end of her third day punishment, his hand reached to pick her hand but he stopped, he shook his head and supported her against big vine bough.

He can wake her up by letting his essence flow in her central Acmes pair but he dropped this idea, he wanted her to take proper rest after two days of sleepless hard work.

He left his upper warm cover for her with a shelter to protect from the cold evening.

He was impressed with the courage of this girl, was shocked at her ways, because he never met someone of this caliber, just that she happened to offend Yongjie again and again but now it was fine since he was thinking to get help from her, he wanted Yongjie to get rid from his egomaniac flaw, and this girl don"t know what was fear called that means she could be helpful.

But he needed to take her permission if she was alright to give helping hand?

For now she should rest, he walked back but he saw Yongjie standing and looking at him.

"Are you done?" Yongjie asked, there was not a single expression on his face which could elaborate whether he was displeased or not.

"I thought she could rest here," he pointed toward her.

"You are leaving her near waterfall and you forgot about the cold evening leaving only a single cover for protection from cold, if you decided to go against your friend why falter, at least help her comparable your standards," Yongjie blurted.

The expert was standing agape, he thought that his friend was here to show some anger but it turned out this, did he already forget his egomaniac att.i.tude? He asked to himself.

No, it was not clear yet.

The expert picked her again and brought in his personal abode, this place was comforting and the sleeping bed was soft, he placed her there and left in hurry.

He decided to let her rest in his abode while he was standing outside of the inner core in the open ground, with the fall of the evening the weather also changed.

Yongjie was surprised but he did not speak anything, instead he was feeling better now, he knew his friend never let anyone enter his abode and he would not be able to decide what to do when he told him to help her according to his standards and now after leaving her in his abode he was standing in the open, tonight has nothing to do, his task has completed in the morning and he was intended to rest but gave away his abode for tonight.

Yongjie felt his ego was satisfied now.

Yongjie picked the treasure and went to complete his task.

Before leaving he stood beside his friend, "My abode is empty, you can go there and rest," he sincerely spoke.

"No worry, it"s been sometime when I last admired nature and cherished the beauty of nature, I will be heading toward upper region of Swan Lake," his friend pleasantly spoke.

He intended to visit upper region of Swan Lake and restore the damage done in previous two days.

"Sure, I will be going now," Yongjie nodded and flung his sleeve to leave.

The snowflakes began falling down, he spread his hand and few snowflakes brushed past his palm while one was able to grapple and did not slip away.

"She has demeanor to capture any unruly heart too, little brat" he smiled and thought to wait until morning.

Jen was sleeping in the comfortable abode.

This sphere was superior if compared to the lower sphere and cultivators cultivate the advance Two Armors of Heart Cultivation unlike the lower sphere where two armors of Peace and fury were confused with contemplation.

In reality, these two armors were directly related to the Heart Cultivation because the rudimentary force was always heart.

Heart was the center of peace and in few cases center of fury, it depends on the cultivator how one would control both.

The choice also matter.

Some measurements were set by the Supreme Rulers many millennium ago, as long as one was consistent, the increasing levels would open new acknowledgements, and paths.

Ancient text depicts how supreme rulers were able to control their hearts but they had to halt their achievements because if there exist good then there must be evil too.

They created stronger barriers for anyone to cross them and reach those levels, but it was mostly enlightenment and approach of the cultivator that sometime broke those barriers, Celestial Sphere hold many Heart cultivators of supreme levels but they can be counted on fingertips because of the restrictions of this sphere.

A heart cultivator not only control his emotions and armor of Peace and Fury, can also control another weak heart, this was called manipulation of Heart.

Manipulation of heart was used to cure heart by the supreme rulers but later it became a tool for evils.

An evil heart controller would slave other cultivators and use them according to his own purposes while a supreme controller would cure only and never resort to such means to conquer.

The history of cultivation was filled with both and the supreme Deity decided to raised more strong barriers in the end.

Upper sphere was an exception, because it was strongest sphere moreover the present supreme deity was near its end, the Defender of upper Sphere was not called Defender instead a Supreme Deity.

One thousand years of rule was about to end too and after the selection of Defender in the Celestial Sphere, the selection of a Deity would start in near hundred years.

Why a deity can only defend upper sphere because it has ability to control its own heart, that"s why Supreme Deity was called Supreme Ruler.

Upper sphere has no threat of foreign invasion but internal incursion, since the sources were abundant and many young masters of stronger regions could easily bring disaster for the stability of the sphere.

The struggle for power and to get it was not the grave matter, to accurately control this power and use for betterment was most pressing issue in the upper sphere, and it seemed nearly impossible because of the presence of strongest rivals.

"Be careful," his friend voiced from behind, Yongjie heard and waved his hand.
