Unrivaled Soldier in the City-Chapter 379: Enlightenment from Nature

The night passed without incident. The next morning, Lin Kuang rose early, and after freshening up, he began to practice his Chaotic Tai Chi in the manor. He had only intended to get some light exercise, but unexpectedly, his movements felt increasingly smooth. He performed the entire set from start to finish without a single pause, his form flawlessly fluid!

"Damn, what's going on?" Lin Kuang looked at his hands incredulously. "Did I have a breakthrough? An entire set of Tai Chi felt so easy, effortless, and natural?" It was simply too bizarre for him to believe.

In truth, Lin Kuang was overreacting. During his fight with Chen Ge and Chen You two nights prior, he had already fully grasped the essence of Tai Chi. He just hadn't consciously processed it yet. Even though he hadn't sorted through the experience, the essence of Tai Chi had already integrated itself into his body. That was why performing Chaotic Tai Chi now felt so effortless and casual, the sequence flowing with a polished smoothness. Of course, only after grasping the true essence of the art could Lin Kuang have achieved this. His former self would have been utterly incapable of such a feat.

After inspecting his hands carefully, Lin Kuang couldn't resist performing Chaotic Tai Chi once more. This time, just like the last, the entire process was like flowing clouds and moving water—effortless, smooth, and natural, as if completed in a single breath.

When he finished, Lin Kuang stood motionless on the spot, completely stunned. He wasn't frozen in confusion. Instead, after performing the two sets of Tai Chi, his spirit seemed to have ascended, evoking a peculiar and wondrous sensation. It was as if he had merged with nature itself, able to feel the wind on his skin and hear the whispers of the green grass. The sensation was profound, almost unbelievable, but it was undeniably real. And it was all thanks to his Chaotic Tai Chi.

Tai Chi embraces heaven and earth, encompassing all of nature. For its practitioners, the most important aspect is their state of mind: to perceive nature, merge with it, and become a part of it. That is the true essence of Tai Chi.

Lin Kuang hadn't intended for this to happen; he had simply entered a state of self-forgetfulness instinctively, leading to this astonishing outcome. At that moment, Lin Kuang was completely immersed in that mysterious state, his entire being was elevating. His understanding of Chaotic Tai Chi, and of all the martial arts he had learned, rose to a new level—an experience he had never felt before.

Lin Kuang's power was also rapidly improving. His strength had been stuck at The Fourth Gate, the Injury Gate, but now, the barrier to The Fifth Gate, The Du Gate, began to loosen. It felt as though he could break through at any moment.

"Lin Kuang, what are you spacing out for?" Just then, Lin Guo'er came out and asked with curiosity. She had been watching him stand there, dazed, for quite some time and had started to worry.

Hearing Lin Guo'er's voice, Lin Kuang suddenly snapped out of his trance. A hint of confusion lingered in his deep eyes before they gradually cleared and returned to normal.

"Lin Kuang, are you okay?" she asked again, seeing that he didn't move or speak. Her tone was laced with unconcealed concern.

Hearing this, Lin Kuang quickly turned around. "Ah, I'm fine, really. I was just thinking about something," he said with a smile, seeing the worried look on her pretty face.

Although her voice had pulled him from that profound state, he felt no disappointment or blame. After all, the sensation had come unexpectedly in the first place. Even though it was cut short, he had still enjoyed the feeling of self-transcendence. All in all, it was a welcome bonus, leaving him in a very good mood.

Unbeknownst to him, his actions were in perfect harmony with the Tai Chi Path. The Way of Tai Chi is vast and all-encompassing; with this new realization and mindset, Lin Kuang was destined to become much stronger.

"I called you and you didn't answer. You scared me! Hurry up and come eat," Lin Guo'er said in annoyance, shooting him a glare.

"Huh? Eat? We're eating this early?" Lin Kuang couldn't help but ask.

"Early? It's almost eight o'clock!" Lin Guo'er rolled her eyes and said with exasperation.

"Huh, almost eight already? Time really flies," Lin Kuang said in surprise. It felt like it wasn't even six o'clock when I came out, but now it's nearly eight? Time really is a mysterious thing.

"Of course it is! You've been standing there for ages. Now, hurry up and eat," Lin Guo'er urged before turning and walking back into the villa.

Lin Kuang shrugged. It didn't matter. In any case, his morning had been incredibly fruitful. He felt a thrill of excitement at the thought.

Stepping into the main hall, he saw that Liu Shilin had indeed already prepared breakfast. Lin Guo'er, apparently unable to wait, had already started eating.

"Lin Kuang, come eat," Lin Guo'er said with a smile when she saw him walk in.

Lin Kuang smiled, nodded, and joined the two women at the table. After the three of them finished breakfast, Lin Kuang began clearing the table while the two women went upstairs to change.

A little after eight o'clock, Lin Kuang drove the two women to the company.

The atmosphere at Yashi Company was excellent these days. The company had made a major move, and on top of that, employees like Duoduo and Susu had received pay raises, so morale was high. Who wouldn't be happy? Especially since Yashi's performance had been outstanding recently, with sales having practically skyrocketed.

Seeing the happy employees made Lin Kuang feel good as well. After all, working with beautiful women was always a pleasure, and the women around him were truly exceptional.

Around ten in the morning, Zhang Lianmei called to inform Lin Kuang that the batch of goods had been shipped overseas. The sheer quantity had shocked even her—the shipment weighed several hundred kilograms! With this single delivery, Zhang Lianmei had earned a massive fortune.

Lin Kuang was just as stunned by the news. He couldn't help but feel a surge of delight as he imagined the priceless look on Chu Zhongtian's face when he discovered he'd been tricked.

"Well done, Lianmei," Lin Kuang said into his phone with a grin. "Stall Chu Zhongtian for now, and don't let any word of this leak out. Wait for me to contact you in a few days."

Zhang Lianmei agreed with a smile. "Okay, I'll wait for your instructions."

"Good. That's all for now," Lin Kuang said cheerfully. "Keep up the good work, and remember to call me if anything comes up."

"Alright, Lin Kuang," Zhang Lianmei replied sweetly.
