Ding Ying raised his arm, and the silver-colored lotus flower hat on his head surprisingly bloomed like a real lotus. The originally closed lotus petals peeled back and extended outward, swaying in a lively manner. Ding Ying placed the miniature flying sword between his fingers inside the lotus, after which the lotus petals closed again, returning the Daoist hat to its original form.
The old man clasped his hands behind his back and peered down at the river of sword qi flowing near him. Even someone like Ding Ying couldn't help but feel that this was a spectacularly beautiful sight that he had never seen before.
As he looked down at the snow-white stream of sword qi lingering in the human world, Ding Ying smiled and asked, "Chen Ping'an, is this the sword kinesis technique of sword experts? You and Feng Qingbai both used this technique before. I was careless, and I didn't imagine that you could use sword kinesis from such a great distance.

In the end, Chen Ping'an's severe wounds had only healed after Lu Tai used mystical pills and medicines from the Naturalist Lu Clan to treat him.
Chen Ping'an naturally hadn't summoned Lasting Qi to his side from such a great distance using some kind of divine sword kinesis technique. Instead, Lasting Qi's sword qi had seeped into Chen Ping'an's physique due to his interaction with it day and night for such a long period of time. At the same time, his soul also developed the ability to manipulate the sword qi. Thus, the two of them had remained linked even though they had been so far apart.
Ding Ying pointed at his lotus flower hat and said, "You've...
