Martial Arts: [Stone Crushing, head Piercing Pick Technique: 1613/10,000 Perfection] [Ghostly Blood Saber Skill:0/10 Uninitiated] Pile Skills: [Tiger Blood Nourishing Skill:0/10 Uninitiated] [Bear Blood Nourishing Skill:0/10 Uninitiated] [Gorilla Blood Nourishing Skill:0/10 Uninitiated] [Wolf Blood Nourishing Skill:0/10 Uninitiated] he was pleasantly surprised that his untrained memorisation was counted in the panel.
but quickly shook it off, putting away everything but the Copper Blood Nourishing Skill.
he took it to the next book shelf, where he would look for weapon techniques.
‘I have an axe, a sword, and 2 Sabers, which means I can freely grab and practice any of these techniques, except for spear based weapons..’ he already had the Ghostly Blood Saber, so a sword and axe technique were the obvious option.
‘or..’ he could choose another saber, compare it, and evolve or combine them.
he decided to do the second option, thinking it was the obvious choice, after all, he could eventually just forge himself an axe skill once he started tree chopping.
and use contribution points buy a basic sword book.
‘though…’ he believed he could abuse the method of memorisation, but that hopw was immediately shattered, as all of the books here were incomplete.
‘aww shucks..’ he sighed and looked through.
‘Wind Chasing Saber?
nah, Ghost Blood Saber was already a fast technique.
Earth Shattering Saber!
Sign me up!’ he chose this book much faster, and headed towards the Clerk, who was peacefully reading her book.
“pardon me Miss Min, I’m ready to get my cultivation books.” he placed the 2 incomplete books on the table.
she raises an Eyebrow.
“kid, both the Technique’s you chose are very difficult to master, and in my opinion, not worth it since they can only be raised up to Great Success?” Ma Qing understood, but explained.
“thank you for your information Senior Sister, but seeing that the Copper Blood Nourishing Skill had to be asked for, I believe it was the most impressive.” she nods.
“you are correct on that assumption, but the Skill itself is easy to comprehend, but very difficult to execute.
even though it doesn’t require much external help, like qi blood soup, and demon beast meat, its very, very difficult to succeed effectively in.
plus, since its incomplete, only able to practice to great success, you’ll have to swap a cultivation technique after reaching great success?
which is an extreme pain…” “…
I see..
but I would still want to learn it..” “your one stubborn Junior..” she sighs and hands him the complete texts of both books.
he bows deeply, thanking her for her wisdom before heading back to his apartment…
or is it a condo?
‘I mean I don’t own it, so apartment?
but they aren’t charging me rent?
does that even matter?’ he shook of the thoughts and opened the door, then realising the kids were hiding he shouted out “BANANA” and the twins popped out.
“we don’t have to do that anymore guys, we’re in a safe place!” he chuckles and pick them both up.
“aww!
we just found amazing hiding spots!
we even planned out the whole weeks worth!” “what are you spies~” he puts them down and pet them.
“now that you live in the compound, you are freely able to play anywhere where people aren’t throwing fists, but!
you both can’t be a problem ok?” they grin wider and nod vigorously.
“are their other kids here as well!” they start barraging me with questions, which i answer truthfully.
there are in fact, plenty of other kids.
since most workers were given family sized apartments, they had plenty of space to bring their families, not to mention the single disciples settling down and making a family of their own.
so, the area is bustling with plenty of kids.
all having roots to martial arts now.
with that, the twin 6 year old’s l left in a hurry.
‘maybe I should build a playground one day?’ he thought, that way, more people might like him, and build his credit.
he sat down cross legged on his own bed, and started reading through the Copper Blood Nourishing skill, and the Earth Shattering Saber.
Martial Arts: [Earth Shattering Saber Skill:0/10 Uninitiated] Pile Skills: [Copper Blood Nourishing Skill:0/10 Uninitiated] he grinned and stood up, stretched and started his attempt on training the Copper Blood Nourishing Skill.
within the stance itself, one must feel the malleability of copper.
with him mining stone for years at this point, he has come across his fair share of copper.
he understood enough about it, and felt confident in replicating it.
with that, he started the breathing technique, coupled with the Heart Mantra, the first he came about practicing, and felt an immediate change in his body!
with his body, collecting power from the air itself, and than it being pumped into the heart and through the blood, he got his first taste of Qi Blood!
