"Vajra Wisdom King Art... Martial Arts, this is Martial Arts..."
Yang Ling's fingers were trembling with excitement.
He knew why Prison Butcher had come to this mine.
When Head Constable Lin was chatting with Supervisor Wu, he mentioned that Prison Butcher was suspected of stealing a Buddhist Scripture from Kujue Temple!
Now it seemed that this was a fact!
"The higher-ups didn't issue a notice, and Kujue Temple didn't blow things out of proportion. It's very likely they were afraid other Factions would covet this cultivation technique, or perhaps they were unwilling to lose face."
"So Zhang Hao was chased all the way to Green Mountain City?"
"The Pyrocrystal Ore essence must have been brought by him, not nurtured here."
"He used this item to attract a bunch of Mine Bugs just to protect this Vajra Wisdom King Art. He probably wanted to lay low before coming back to get it..."
At this thought, Yang Ling suddenly turned around and looked around vigilantly.
Fortunately, all of this had not been discovered by anyone else yet.
"But I don't have much time left. There must be monks from Kujue Temple hunting down Zhang Hao behind his back. Before long, they'll probably guess that he hid the Vajra Wisdom King Art here..."
Without saying another word, Yang Ling stepped forward and picked up the Vajra Wisdom King Art.
Just as he planned to put it away and find another place to hide it, a prompt suddenly appeared before his eyes:
【Vajra Wisdom King Art, Cultivation Threshold: Strength 10, Spirit 10】
【Threshold Met】
【Do you wish to comprehend?】
"So this is how Mental Strength is used?"
Yang Ling was inexplicably pleasantly surprised and immediately tried choosing to comprehend.
The next second, the Vajra Wisdom King Art instantly turned into a golden radiance, sinking into his body and disappearing.
Following that, Yang Ling felt his body warm up, and then, inexplicably, a majestic Buddhist Scripture appeared within his memories.
Yang Ling snapped back to his senses and immediately opened the Attribute Panel.
Character: Yang Ling
Class: Miner
Level: 8
Strength: 11
Agility: 5
Spirit: 10
Martial Arts: Vajra Wisdom King Art (First-rate cultivation technique, Initial Mastery Not Attained)
HP: 110 / 110
"Wu Que's Black Tiger Fist doesn't seem to have a grade label; could it be because it's too poor?"
Yang Ling was secretly pleasantly surprised.
He really struck it lucky this time!
Not only did he obtain Martial Arts, but the grade of the Martial Arts was also First-rate!
Although he still couldn't figure out the grade classification of Martial Arts in 【Divine Realm】.
But in any game, First-rate Martial Arts were something that could only be learned in the mid-to-Late Stages!
"Now 【Divine Realm】 hasn't been out for long, and I am still in the novice village. This First-rate Martial Arts will definitely be of enormous help to me!"
Yang Ling couldn't help taking a few more glances at the Attribute Panel, and soon discovered that the Martial Arts column seemed to have more detailed information.
He clicked on it to take a look.
【First Layer: Obtain 5 Free Attribute Points. When circulating Qi, Strength and Agility each increase by 15 points, and extra HP increases by 100 points】
【No permission to view the Second Layer】
"Hiss—"
Yang Ling sucked in a breath of cold air.
Looking at this introduction, if he mastered the first layer of the Vajra Wisdom King Art, he would be able to get 5 Free Attribute Points, and when circulating Qi, Strength and Agility would each increase by 15 points?
The most crucial thing was that even HP could increase by 100 points.
What difference did this make from having an extra life!?
"I'll cultivation as soon as I go back! Who's going to mine anymore!"
Yang Ling immediately packed up, taking the ore essence with him. He also dug a pit to directly bury the traces of the fight along the way and the corpses of the Mine Bugs.
After clearing away the traces and repeatedly confirming there were no omissions, Yang Ling finally chose another place to bury the ore essence.
"The ore essence cannot be hidden at all if carried on me; I can only bury it first. Even if bad luck strikes and someone else takes advantage, I'll accept it."
"Although this thing is valuable, it also carries danger and will attract unnecessary trouble."
"The Vajra Wisdom King Art is the biggest harvest this time."
At the exit.
Seeing that Yang Ling had dug another thirty or so catties of Fire Crystal Ore, Steward Niu praised him verbally once again and then settled the silver coins.
"Steward Niu, I feel that Yang Ling looks somewhat different."
The Mine Guard stepped forward, gazing at Yang Ling's back.
Steward Niu sighed with emotion: "His vitality and spirit seem to be getting better and better. It seems his injuries have recovered."
In his eyes, he had already identified Yang Ling as a member of the Yang Family from Hongkun City.
Hiding here was simply to avoid enemies.
The Mine Guard flattered him:
"You still have such a discerning eye, sir."
"Hehe, learn from it."
...
...
Returning to the wooden house that leaked when it rained and let in the wind when it blew.
Yang Ling immediately began studying the cultivation method of the Vajra Wisdom King Art.
In his mind, majestic scriptures slowly welled up.
Among these memories were some bizarre stance postures.
Yang Ling had an epiphany in his heart and immediately struck the first posture.
He squatted in a horse stance with the palms of both hands facing the sky.
Silently chanting the scriptures of the Vajra Wisdom King Art in his heart.
Time passed minute by minute.
Fortunately, his strength and endurance had been trained through mining.
Otherwise, an ordinary person wouldn't be able to maintain this kind of posture for even a minute.
About ten or so minutes probably passed.
A warm current slowly bred within Yang Ling's body.
There was movement!
In the Martial Arts column, a new change had already appeared:
Martial Arts: Vajra Wisdom King Art (First-rate cultivation technique, Initial Mastery)
Experience Points: 1 / 100
"There are Experience Points! This means as long as the Experience Points reach 100, I will be considered to have cultivated to the first layer?"
Yang Ling suppressed the joy in his heart, continued to maintain the stance posture of the first layer, and chanted the Buddhist Scripture in his heart.
Unawares, several hours passed.
The roosters outside were already crowing.
It was dawn.
Yang Ling hadn't slept all night, yet not only was he not exhausted, but he was full of spirit!
The Experience Points of the Vajra Wisdom King Art also increased to: 5 / 100
"Strange, at first I calculated that 1 point of Experience Points could increase every ten-plus minutes, but after reaching 5 points, there was no movement anymore..."
"Could it be that a maximum of only 5 points of experience are given per day? Practicing more is ineffective?"
Yang Ling's brows furrowed slightly, but quickly relaxed.
Even 5 points a day was fine.
Twenty days of time would allow him to cultivation to the first layer!
By then, his strength would undergo a qualitative change!
Yang Ling's thought stirred, opening the Attribute Panel:
Character: Yang Ling
Class: Martial Artist
Level: 8
Strength: 11
Agility: 5
Spirit: 10
Martial Arts: Vajra Wisdom King Art (First-rate cultivation technique, Initial Mastery)
Experience Points: 5 / 100
HP: 110
"My Class has already changed from Miner to Martial Artist..."
Yang Ling couldn't help the corners of his mouth turning up.
Having come to 【Divine Realm】 for almost a month, he finally had preliminary results.
From a vagrant, to a Miner, and then to today's Martial Artist!
He would gain a firm foothold in 【Divine Realm】 step by step!
Right at this moment, the sound of gongs and drums suddenly rang out from outside:
"Everyone get up, hurry up, gather at the village entrance!"
Dozens of Mine Guards could be seen holding bronze gongs, continuously striking them.
Miner after Miner walked out of their houses in bewilderment, heading towards the village entrance.
At the village entrance, Supervisor Wu and Head Constable Lin were both present, except that the complexions of both men were somewhat pale.
In front of them stood a monk who looked to be in his thirties, expressionlessly saying something.
