The faint tingling sensation in his fingertips had intensified, now a steady hum that resonated through his entire body.
He could feel the subtle currents of water energy flowing beneath the surface of the world, a constant, unseen symphony.
Two weeks later, when he finally opened his eyes after a particularly deep meditation, the world appeared different. Sharper.
More alive. At first, he could only perceive Yang energy, the vibrant, life-giving force that coursed through every living being.
But now, a new layer of perception had been added. He could see the cool, flowing currents of water energy, weaving through the air and nourishing all life.
