Chapter 9: Picking a skill
Han opened his eyes, and his expression changed slightly. Upon opening his eyes, he saw the baby faced old man standing in front of him, looking at him concernedly.
-Elder...
-Call me Elder Ji.
-Yes, Elder Ji.
Wondering about the baby faced elder's sudden appearance, does he need anything from me? Han raised his eyebrow.
-Do you have difficulties choosing which art to pick?
Han nodded his head.
- Yes Elder Ji, all this skills seem really incredible, but I can feel that it is not suitable for me, I don't really know which skill is more useful for me, may Elder Ji please instruct me and recommend the arts you feel is best for a new cultivator.
Han bowed.
A hint of approval appeared for a brief moment on Elder Ji's face.
This kid isn't hasty and arrogant, he is willing to put aside his pride and ask for assistance, this attitude will allow him to stay on this cultivation path for a long time.
With this thought, a tiny smile made its way onto Elder Ji's face.
A good seedling indeed.
Keugh humph, as Elder Ji cleared his throat, 3 books magically appeared in his hands.
Han's eyes instantly widened.
What was that? Is that the famous space storage ring that he took those books out from?
Han glanced at the elder's hands and fingers, there were no rings ah... How did he do it?
As though he could see through Han's thoughts, Elder Ji chuckled and said
-Hue hue , when a person reaches my level, they will have no need for a space storage ring, the person will already have the ability to tear through the void and would have created their own storage space in the void, it is much more safer and secure that way, only when the person dies would the belongings be disposed from the void and appear in the material realm.
Han nodded, enlightened on this topic.
-Then Elder Ji, what level are you at?
Hehe, Elder Ji glanced at Han and smirked, maintaining his silence. Increasing the mysterious ambience that was shrouding him.
Han scratched his head and grinned.
Since he has no intentions to tell me, then lets just leave it at that.
-There are three books right here. They are books which specialize in different domains, the first one would be a sword technique, which is known as the "Quick Draw Blade". It is a mortal ranked skill which newbies in the Yin Yang Sword sect missed out on because it's summary doesn't sound as imposing as the "Berserk Blade" skill, it is also a rank lower. Which deterred them from properly examining the benefits of this skill.
But not all skills that have a high rank are suitable for anyone, some may cultivate it to a higher stage while some may not have any success at all.
Han nodded his head, agreeing with what Elder Ji has said, the "Berserk Blade" required one to have a wild temperament and requires anger as it fuel to provide power to the skill, definitely not suited for Han.
Han felt that he was such a chill guy, such a skill wasn't for him...
-This "Quick Draw Blade" allows one to train and build a firm foundation for drawing their sword out and deal the enemy with a quick slash, it may sound simple, but simplicity is the same as complexity returning to it base form.
Aware that Han was paying full attention to what he was saying, Elder Ji, as though injected by chicken blood, got more excited and proceeded to introduce the other 2 skills.
- The second skill is a movement technique, it is known as the " Mirage Steps"
It is simply a common ranked skill, but when trained at its peak, one step from the user would seem as if it carries him forward by a thousand!
While the last skill is one which targets the soul. It is a visualization art, the " Pangu Visualization Art " , by constantly visualizing the image of the creator, Pangu, one's soul will develop a closer bond to the heavens and earth, drawing energy from it to grow stronger and rid the soul of any impurities!
Hearing the descriptions of these skills, Han was so excited that he almost could not refrain himself from snatching those books over from Elder Ji and run back to his abode to immediately start cultivating.
-Take these skills and cultivate well, I have expectations of you.
A benign expression appeared on Elder Ji's face, making it seem adorable.
Han gently nodded, resolving himself to do his best to cultivate well.
