Kapitel 5: Sensing mana
Next day.
It was still dark out, but Natasha had already working out.
"Teacher told me to focus on enlightenment, to focus on the intention of his teachings rather than focusing on form and shape, focus on and sense the energy in the blood flow, mobilize the trace amounts of elemental mana to temper the skin membrane…"
"The supreme genius can complete the skin refining in five days, but I haven't sensed mana yet."
"The gap is too big, but the teacher also said that I should not be impatient, the more impatient I am, the harder it will be to sense mana…"
Natasha calmed down, concentrated on herself, and carefully tried to sense the vague feeling that was described.
Soon the eastern sky turned reddish.
The morning sun was about to rise, and Natasha who was still immersed in sensing Qi and blood, suddenly felt a slightly warm current emerging from her chest and abdomen.
It was faint and warm, and seemed to flow with her breathing to her tensed muscles.
"Elemental mana! I actually sensed it? Then the teacher is definitely not a cheater!"
"I can feel the mana!"
Natasha was extremely excited at this moment, and she even lost the feeling she had for a while.
"Calm down, calm down, be calm, don't let your mind wander…"
The girl holding a squat reminded herself.
"I should try mobilizing this mana to temper my skin…"
"How should I mobilize the mana? Teacher didn't say specifically."
"Should I go and ask him?"
"No! If I relax, it might be difficult to sense the mana again!"
"Let me think… he said that it depends on enlightenment and intention. I must grasp the feeling at the moment."
"Moreover, if I have to ask the teacher in detail how to mobilize the mana, won't I be disappointing him? He might think that understanding is not good enough."
With such thoughts, Natasha immediately gave up the idea of asking Mathew for advice.
She continued squatting over and over again, trying to mobilize illusory mana, while recalling some of the explanations given by Mathew on how to mobilize mana.
As she was extremely focused on the mana, her breathing changed unconsciously and the mana was somehow slowly mobilized.
Gradually, a wisp of mana spread all over her body, and her skin became slightly red.
She felt as though there were some warm ants biting the skin where the mana passed.
Although it made her feel uncomfortable, she grit her teeth and insisted on enduring it.
"I should be considered to have entered the skin refining realm, right?"
"Natasha very excited that she had finally sensed the mana in her body, and successfully mobilized it to temper her skin.
…
Matthew yawned, got up, washed up, and went out to prepare breakfast.
He was the only one left in the village, and it had long been his habit to be self-sufficient.
As soon as he went out, he saw Natasha who was no jogging around the village.
The corner of his mouth twitched unconsciously.
'This apprentice of mine is working hard, but unfortunately it is useless no matter how hard she works.'
The method of cultivation was made up by him, and not even ghosts would would be able to succeed with it.
"When she can't hold on any longer, and comes to ask me for advice, I should have come up with more nonsense to fool her."
Mathew shook his head, turned and left.
Natasha was excited when she saw her teacher and was about to tell him the good news, she had sensed the mana and had actually started refining her skin!
As a result, she saw her teacher shaking his head, her heart suddenly thumped.
"The teacher is dissatisfied with me?"
"Yes, with Teacher 's level, how could he not see that I have sensed mana and entered the skin refining stage?"
"He must think that I am restless, arrogant and complacent. I took too long to get to this level…"
After Natasha thought for a while, she immediately gave up the idea of telling Mathew that she had sensed mana and started with refining her skin.
She took a deep breath to calm down, and continue to mobilize the mana to temper your skin.
'My teacher is unfathomable. He can tell progress with a single glance. I can't be arrogant or complacent… since he can see how my cultivation is progressing, why should I speak?'
Natasha understood clearly in her heart that there was no need to tell her teacher anything deliberately.
Mathew caught a chicken in the chicken coop and prepared to stew it with that colourful flower, which is a rare treasure in the world.
After eating stewed chicken yesterday yesterday, he felt stronger, and much younger.
He took out his knife and was about to kill the chicken, but he suddenly paused.
"I have a young and energetic student, there is no reason for me, the teacher, to serve the apprentice. The apprentice should serve the teacher!"
"Anyway, I have already lied and she is my apprentice for now… Letting her do some chores is very reasonable, right?"
With this thought in mind, he walked towards Natasha with the chicken in one hand and the knife in the other.
"Disciple, come here, kill the chicken and stew it with some with the five element flower."
Natasha was stunned for a moment, but she still took the chicken and knife from Matthew's hands with a confused face.
"Why, you can't cook?"
Mathew looked at her a daze and frowned.
'That's right, Natasha, this idiot, is a kid from a rich family. How can she know how to cook?'
Even so, since she has been accepted as his apprentice, he can't not make good use of her, right?
"Natasha, walking, sitting, sleeping and eating are all part of practicing."
"Although you have not yet become an apprentice mage and are too far away from the realm like mine, it is also good for you to get familiar with it in advance."
Mathew said with a serious expression
"Teacher, I'll go do it right away!"
Natasha looked serious and said respectfully.
'The teacher's realm is too high. It seems like ordinary things, but in fact, this is an expert, this is the state of being hidden in the world!'
'The more I think about it, the more I feel that the teacher is mysterious, seemingly ordinary, and does not show any strength, but this is how a real powerful hidden Mage is!'
Natasha quickly went to cook.
Mathew was worried and stared at her for a while, and found that although Natasha was a little unfamiliar with killing chickens and cooking, under his guidance, the food she cooked should be edible.
O he safely moved a chair and placed it under the big tree in front of the house.
Mathew leisurely lay on the chair waiting for the meal.
"It's nice to have a disciple, such a life should be very comfortable."
"With Natasha's brain, it should be impossible to see through my façade in a short time, but I must still think of a way to escape from here…"
After dinner.
Natasha continued to practice.
"This… the speed of tempering the skin has become faster, and the elemental mana seems to have increased by at least 50%..."
"At this rate, although my skin refining cannot be completed in five days, there should be no problem in completing the skin refining within a month."
Natasha felt that the speed of refining the skin membrane had greatly increased, and she was very excited.
"Why did the skin refining speed suddenly increase? Could it be…"
She thought of five elements flower chicken soup!
The five elemental flowers are indeed a rare treasure, and the tree is one of families most protected treasures.
If he had not been the only child of her family and was deeply loved by her parents, she would not have been able to obtain the some of it's flowers to use as school fees.
'Teacher!'
Natasha felt extremely moved at this moment.
"He must know that the five elements flowers can help me practice, so he took it out and let me stew it to eat!"
"I will never let my teachers painstaking efforts down. I must practice hard and strive to become an apprentice mage as soon as possible!"
Natasha thought to herself, at this moment, her reverence for her teacher was comparable to that of the sun and the moon, and she was completely moved.
She mobilized her body mana and continuously tempered her skin.
With continuous tempering, Natasha felt that her body was getting stronger, her mana became stronger and stronger, and her skin membrane became more delicate looking and it somehow felt tougher.
"I feel that my strength has more than doubled, but I have just started skin refining. How strong will I be when skin refining is complete?"
"I must become an apprentice mage within a year!"
Natasha's eyes were firm.
"The effect of this five elements flowers is so good. Why do I feel that my power has become stronger and I have become even more younger?"
"Should I keep it all to yourself?"
"If my fraud is exposed, I can still have some moral ground by saying that we ate it together, but if I monopolize it, it won't be good."
Mathew felt the changes in his body, and at a certain moment, he had some black hearted impulses.
In the end, he reluctantly prioritized his own life.
