The night at Nine Cloud Peak was as tranquil as water. After bidding farewell to Chen Xihua, Chen Sheng walked through the spiritual mist in the mountains, returning to his cave abode.
Inside the cave, the gentle azure glow from the Spirit Gathering Jade illuminated the space.
On the central cultivation platform, the light blue Jade Scroll of the "Seven Emotions Sword Scripture" hovered quietly, with the sword patterns on its surface slowly flowing as if coming to life under the spirit light.
Chen Sheng quickly stepped forward, sitting cross-legged on the meditation mat, lightly holding the Jade Scroll with both hands. He sent his divine sense into it, and the abstruse yet easily comprehensible words directly entered his sea of consciousness.
"The Seven Emotions — joy, anger, worry, thought, sadness, fear, and surprise — are the root of a cultivator's heart demons, and also the opportunity for breaking through tribulations."
