Second time also failure.

100th time also failure.
Where the moon is hung up directly high in sky, its finally midnight.
Xin practiced till midnight, finally used up all his energy and fell tired, then feel asleep. He directly fell asleep on waterbed, unconsiously running turtle breathe in his mind and his body reacted, slowly breathing through pores, closing all five senses, reducing heartbeat.
In his dream, he felt that as if the divine white turtle saw him, ignoring his existence and crossing through thousands of seas.
There were some chaotic seas, blood seas, ghost seas, cursed seas,...etc all kinds of seas which were unbelievable even the climatic conditions changes as every sea is entered.
The divine white turtle crossed these seas without much harm. Whenever the divine turtle passes any sea, the seas were much welcoming as if welcoming an existance of lord.
The reason why turtle is known as the lord of sea is because its from this overlord existance. It is said that during an old epoch, the divine turtle carried the mountains on its back, and gave birth of heaven and earth treasures, travelled through vast oceans and seas, and crossed it without any harm.
It is also said that the white turtle is very good at divination, which predicts the order of heaven and earth. As its said, divination orders the way of heaven and earth, as cultivators break the way of ordering heaven and earth.
The white turtle is a very giant existence, it is very large. When he saw the turtle, the turtle ignored his existence.
Its like a giant elephant seeing an ant blocking the way. Will an ant like existence recieve sympathy if you are not strong or do not have will power or if you are a mortal? The answer is no!
The turtle entered a certain sea, saw him as if wanting to tell him something, there was a sympathy in his eyes feeling sad about it, opened its mouth and disappeared into the void.
Xin stood there on the sea, remembering this place, if one day he has the strength he must search the turtle why it disappeared into the void.
Gradually, the seas became chaotic, sea monsters roared as if begining of the carnival and the sea closed itself to block anyone from coming in.
The seas came back to where it was before, roaring to kill each other sea beasts for food, and the climatic conditions are harsh.
If one were to enter this sea, its the end of road.
As turtle disappeared, the seas also disappeared and returned to normal.
At dawn, the old seniors who were drinking wine, chatting and laughing, enjoying the scenery, they didn't think much but they soon realised that Xin has gone missing and the rivers are turbulent, making the flow of river faster.
The winds howl, rivers flow faster than usual, fishes are jumping here and there, the insects vividly make noises, the whole forest is in a situation of panic and uneasiness.
The old seniors, were also afarid that something has happened and searched for his tracks.
After three hours, this whole episode has cooled down.
And Xin who was in the bottom of river has still not come out, still thinking what the old turtle wanted to say.
The old seniors finally found the tracks that Xin had entered the river to pracrice turtle breathe.
The reason why Xin had entered the river is because, there is only one conclusion, turtle breathe is required to practice either in the river or in the sea.
The old seniors couldn't help but frown.
They waited for nearly eight hours.
They finally came to a conclusion that Xin is practicing, so no need to disturb and they sat down where Xin had last entered the river from this area. So they waited for him at the banks of river.
Xin who was in the river bed, became proficient in turtle breathe, from Entry level to Greater Perfection.
The old seniors who were beside the banks of river were talking endlessly,
The old soul asked: "Old senior do you think that this kid has entered Mastery level?"
"Nah, don't think of it. Ahhhh, We didn't even explain the levels! We totally forgot about it. Never mind when he comes ashore, we will explain it to him so he may have a better idea." The old spirit said lightly.
After three days.
At morning.
As they were enjoying and drinking wine, they felt that there was a movement in the river.
At this time, Xin came ashore unaware of what has happened, totally wet, waters dripping on the ground.
He started a bonfire, dried his body, put on new clothes, even his underpants.
He bowed to the seniors and asked them politely: "Seniors how many days has it been?"
The old seniors looked at him with an angry face and snorted: "You kid, don't you know that you made us worried for nearly three days? Don't you even know there was an small episode where rivers flowed fast, fishes jumping, winds howled, insects croaked? We nearly thought that you were swept away by the river!"
"Ahh! There was such an episode?" Xin exclaimed.
"Old seniors, its not my mistake, is it? Old senior I want to ask you to clarify something. I don't know what level I have reached in turtle breathe, can I ask old seniors to clarify for me?" Xin said politely with his hands bowed.
"There are different levels, it also applies to your divine sense and mental state, they are: Entry, Master, Grandmaster, Perfection, Greater Perfection, Legend, Myth and Divine. What level have you reached? Ahh! I forgot to imention, there are levels of heart they are: Heart incubation, Heart analysation, Heart perfection, Heart illusion and Heart Emperor." The old soul said.
