Chapter 416: A Touching and Flawless Gem
North District 1, behind the Iridium Academy.
The July wind blew gently, comfortable but not clingy. Heshia sat by the lake in a white dress. She closed her hands slightly, forming a triangular space, with bits of snow-white fragments suspended in her palms.
A wisp of breeze passed through her palms, and the fragments spun in the wind, making a tinkling sound. The girl's eyes closed, and there was a faint blue crown mark on her brow.
Time passed quietly. Not far from the lake, a few birds with white feathers swam under the lotus leaves, occasionally pecking at small fish, or diving into the water to play, and then popping up again. They were similar in size to swans, with elegant bodies and beautiful crowns that easily reminded people of some mythical birds.
At noon, the snow-white fragments in the girl's palms gathered and broke, constantly spinning, closing and splitting, as if simulating some extremely complex formula model.
Finally, these particles turned into light green sand with a crisp sound of ice cracking, dissipating into the wind, and then the girl opened her eyes, blinked, and stood up.
Finally learned it, Tilan sighed in her heart, then raised her palm, clenched it in the wind, and a light green slender ancient sword appeared in her palm.
Holding the sword, she waved it lightly without any effort, and a piece of stone a hundred meters away slowly slid down, revealing an extremely smooth cut surface, without any abnormal sound or trace in the middle.
The girl loosened her hand, and the light green ancient sword in her palm disappeared, and then she looked at the white clouds floating in the sky, and her other hand simply crossed the air, and then put it down. The white clouds in the sky were normal, but a few minutes later, as the air flow rolled, a faintly visible gap and dislocation appeared in the middle.
Bluebird's Orthodox Sword of Ten Thousand Winds (Legend)
This is one of the advanced swordsmanships in Bluebird's Orthodox Swords that is biased towards the later stage. It is extremely difficult to practice and often requires the cooperation of specific wind-related supernatural professions to learn. Its characteristics are colorless and invisible, changing at will, and extremely sharp.
Even Tilan took two months to gradually master this swordsmanship. This is also the supernatural skill that took her the longest time. Another swordsmanship of the same level, Bluebird's Orthodox Sword of Xiatian Dyeing Jade (Legend), only took her two weeks. Another swordsmanship of the same level, Bluebird's Orthodox Sword of Hanshan Feixian (Legend), which is said to be of the same difficulty, only took her five days.
As expected, you still have to find something that suits your personality, Tilan thought. She is not very good at this kind of thing that changes at will, but if she is asked to learn the secrets and skills related to extreme calmness, absolute stillness, and prohibition, she can learn it very quickly.
Secret arts related to space and time are often extremely difficult for ordinary people, because the concepts involved are very abstract and the extraordinary formulas are not fixed, so very few people can master them. However, for secret arts in this area, Tilan felt as if she was born with it and learned it effortlessly.
After standing by the lake and slowly getting familiar with the newly learned swordsmanship, the girl gradually calmed down, and then turned her eyes to the big birds swimming in the lake not far away. She waved her hand, and these big birds with extremely white feathers took off, then flapped their wings and flew to her side, hovering in the air.
Light Feather Sequence 5 · Blue Eyed White Kite (Perfect Condensed Pearl Level)
Light Feather Sequence 4 · The evolution of the Light Feather Bird, compared to the Light Feather Bird that is good at healing and protection, it has increased its ability to control wind and airflow, making its flying ability greatly improved, and it can support the battlefield faster and survive in the melee.
Touching the grown-up Light Cotton Birds in front of her, the long curved necks felt very comfortable to touch, and Tilan carefully looked at the situation of these five guys.
Although they are Sequence 5, the combat power of these five guys is definitely not as good as that of the big spider and the two snake dragons. What they are good at is protection and healing, as well as support and assistance on the battlefield, etc., and they are also barely advanced. After that , it will take some time to consolidate and lay a solid foundation.
Speaking of which, Mel's gray moon cat seems to have advanced to Sequence 5 now. If there is a chance, let these five white kites fight with the gray moon cat. Otherwise, it is still worrying if they don't have any contact with actual combat.
In the past two years, she has been busy with various things inside and outside the academy. Although she has not given up studying, she doesn't have enough time to take a few friends to actual combat.
However, as long as she gets through these few months, when the production of gray dust crystals slowly increases and stabilizes, it should be a lot easier.
After playing with a few big white kites for a while, Tilan stood up and let the five of them continue their activities. Then she walked to the valley on the side, where there was a path leading to the cold pond inside.
Speaking of which, she hasn't visited that teacher for a while. There are too many things to be busy with recently.
Passing through the valley path surrounded by mist, an invisible barrier was crossed, and the scenery in front of me suddenly became clear.
Although it was summer outside, it was still cold here. There were ice flowers floating on the water, and a faint white smoke rose from the pool.
Walking to the edge of the small lake, the girl looked at the clear bottom of the water. The light blue ice crystal coffin was still there. After thinking for a while, she jumped into it and swam to the bottom of the lake with the bone-chilling lake water.
The pale blue and white ghost princess slowly emerged in the water. She looked at Heshia who was approaching with a calm look, but she was a little puzzled as to why this student would think of diving to the bottom of the water.
After Heshia swam to the ghost princess, her eyes quietly turned and looked at the closed ice crystal coffin, and then she was blocked by the ghost princess.
"So it was you who came up with this idea." She seemed to be amused and helpless.
With a wave of her sleeves, the ghost princess took Heshia and rose from the bottom of the water, and then fell on the lake again, with tiny ice beads falling, and the girl's clothes and hair were refreshed and clean again.
"I haven't seen you for a few days. You've become a lot more naughty." The Ghost Princess sat on the ice seat as usual. Her complicated court dress, although casual, still revealed the owner's beautiful temperament.
"Because I'm a little curious." Heshia looked around. The environment here was almost unchanged.
"Is the teacher's real body in the ice crystal coffin?"
"Yes, but there's nothing to see. Maybe it's just a pile of bones." The Ghost Princess answered Heshia. She tapped her fingers lightly, and a small table carved with ice crystals and an ice pot tea set appeared between the two of them.
"The teacher is the most beautiful person I have ever seen. The corpse should not be ugly." Heshia thought sincerely.
"The most beautiful? I don't dare to use this word. In a few years, you will look in the mirror and know who the most beautiful person is." The Ghost Princess said jokingly.
"Now you haven't fully grown up yet, or you still lack some experiences to support the blooming of your unique charm."
"Temperament is a very special feeling. People with extraordinary experiences often have extraordinary temperaments that surpass ordinary people..." She said as she recalled.
"For example, when I first met someone, her temperament was completely different from when I met her again decades later. It is relatively easy to imitate appearance, but expression, character, temperament and the like are difficult to imitate."
"Who is the person the teacher is talking about?" Heshia was curious.
"When you first meet her, you will probably feel that she is very gentle, like a gentle breeze, with a very delicate mind, but not entangled, and very transparent. Later, when she stands in front of you, although she still looks gentle, you will know that as long as she makes a decision and choice, it will be realized, and no one can shake it. There is a kind of ethereal and distant grandeur that makes it difficult for people to resist." Yes, it is this feeling, as if what she decides is not just a personal voice, but the wishes and hopes of countless creatures, and the future that countless echoes sing together.
Seeing that the teacher still refused to say the name, Heshia knew that she couldn't ask it now, so she turned the topic to another side and talked about her cooperation with Gray Dust Crystal.
"Cooperation? It's a good thing. You are weak now, just like a flawless crystal falling on the grass, which can be taken away by anyone." The ghost princess made a wonderful metaphor.
"Ah, are you really that weak?" Although Heshia was sometimes shy and embarrassed, she felt that compared with her past self, she was already very generous and mature. Moreover, she had won the Winter Festival championship twice, so she couldn't be called weak.
Seeing the girl tilting her head in confusion, the ghost princess lightly tapped her fingers, causing the girl's brows to feel cold.
"Your temperament is too non-aggressive. Although you have a lot of achievements, no one seems to have seen you angry, and your age is also a factor."
"People are always influenced by the inertia of thinking. If you randomly find a middle-aged mature professional and ask them to evaluate a 17-18 year old young man, most of them will think that he is very naive. Even if this young man is his past self, he will have the same feeling."
"People are not machines. When they have seen too many similar samples, they will form a certain stereotype, so when they encounter the same similar situation again, they will react subconsciously."
"Unless one day you do something exceptionally outstanding, or even break all the old ideas, they will be surprised and look at you from another angle and perspective. Otherwise, no matter how good your grades are, they will only regard you as a flower grown in a greenhouse, a young man with good luck and talent, but still immature."
"Don't infer others based on your own ideas. People don't think as carefully and judge as calmly as you do. Many people make judgments and decisions casually and frivolously based on their feelings." The ghost princess poured out the cool tea in the ice pot and handed it to Heshia.
"There are always a lot of fools. If you are modest, they will really think you are incompetent. Well, even if you tell the truth sometimes, not many people will believe it. After all, everyone is very 'idealistic'."
After listening to the words of the Ghost Princess, the girl was thoughtful.
"Speaking of which, Heshia, you are about to graduate." The Ghost Princess remembered something.
"There is still a year.
" "A year, it will be very fast. It just so happens that you are now cooperating with Gray Dust Crystal, and you should be able to control some personnel."
"If possible, tell Gray Dust Crystal that you hope to gather some girls of your age, similar ideas, and good qualifications."
"Gather these people?"
"Choir, choir, probably that's what it's called. They will be your assistants, collaborators, and the extension of your will."
"Is there still such a need? This seems to be the first time I've heard of it." Heshia blinked and looked at the Ghost Princess.
"Is it gone now?" The Ghost Princess was puzzled, but changed her mind and spoke.
"Well, I think I understand. It seems that there is no rush for this matter." She pondered for a while.
"But the training of singers can indeed be done. You should have a lot of influence in Edes now, and you can convince the board to recruit students who are willing to learn the secret arts of singers."
"There are very few people with the talent of singers, but many of the secret arts of singers do not necessarily require singers to use them. Other extraordinary people can also learn them, but the effect is not as significant as that of singers."
"I have seen one at Saint Ingo. Although she does not have the talent of a singer, her secret arts related to singers are also very strong." Heshia thought of the Saint Ingo student named 'Meidi'.
"They... this is also a tradition. It is probably kept out of habit." The ghost princess said slowly, and then shook her head slightly.
"As an academy named after the elf royal family, it is their responsibility to train 'singers', but there are too few people with the talent of singers now, and I guess not many people remember this."
After that, the two chatted a lot. The ghost princess taught Heshia some advanced techniques of singers, and finally talked about the course.
"I have almost finished teaching you what I can teach you. From now on, it depends on you to slowly familiarize yourself with it." The ghost princess stroked the top of Heshia's head.
"You are basically not lacking in theoretical knowledge, but when it comes to practice, you are still far away. This process will take a long time, and there is little use in being anxious."
"Now you can't understand many of the things you remember, but when you really reach that level and state, you will gradually discover them by yourself."
"Time flies so fast. Three years have passed in a flash, and little Tilan has grown up." She retracted her hand.
"After that, you will probably go to the central star field. It will be more exciting there, but you will also face bigger storms and more eyes. Don't be too nervous and anxious. Things are not as bad as you think. Just move forward step by step." Her words seemed to be saying goodbye.
"Teacher..." Although she didn't spend a long time with this ghost princess, Heshia could be said to be the most relaxed here. She could openly ask this teacher many of her secrets, and the other party was not surprised and told her everything.
"Okay, don't cry, little Tilan, you have finally grown up, it would be embarrassing to turn back into a child." The ghost princess smiled and pinched Tilan's cheek lightly.
"I know you still have a lot of questions about your life experience, talent, and the secrets of the singer. What I want to say is that these are just external things. What is most important is what you really want to do, what kind of person you want to be, and what kind of world you want to create."
"Don't be trapped by your so-called origin and past. Human beings are as free as the wind and cannot be bound by anything."
"I have seen such a person. She is very simple, with a simple and kind mind. You can say that this is a character that only exists in fairy tales, but it is such a person who has achieved countless great deeds and miracles. Even I can only look up and sigh."
"Since fate has given you this flawless gem, all you have to do is pick it up and speak out the most true and flawless wish in your heart."
