In the secluded valley of the Dragon Clan, Lin Chen and Su Yao began their long period of reclusion. The spiritual qi in the valley was dense and extremely favorable for cultivation, which brought them a small measure of comfort.
Every morning, Lin Chen would practice in an open area of the valley, channeling the power of his Wind-Thunder Spiritual Physique and combining it with water-based spells. Waving his hands, violent winds howled and lightning flashed as the surrounding seawater formed various wondrous shapes under his control. At times it transformed into a surging water dragon, and at others into a sturdy water shield. Entwined with lightning, the water dragon appeared even more majestic; bolstered by the howling wind, the water shield grew increasingly indestructible.
Nearby by the Spirit Spring, Su Yao sensed the mysteries of water, aided by the affinity of her Cloud-Water Spiritual Physique with the water element. She channeled her spiritual power into the spring, causing ripples to spread across its surface and light to flicker. Closing her eyes, Su Yao carefully perceived the flow and transformation of the water elements, attempting to integrate them into her own spells.
