Capítulo 4: 4. Saber Skill Improved
Lin Fei accessed the system panel to check the progress of his various martial arts.
Host: Lin Fei
Martial arts realm: Fourth level of Body Refining
Giant Whale Body Refining Technique: Fourth level (6% progress)
Dragon-Elephant Vajra Fist: Beginner (11% progress)
Nine Shadow Saber Technique: Beginner (1% progress)
Vajra Iron Cloth: First level (3% progress)
Tendon Transformation and Bone Forging Technique: First level (5% progress)
Lin Fei looked at the various martial arts on the system panel. He had only reached the fourth level of Body Refining.
But he had a total of five martial arts, three of which were body-refining martial arts, and two were combat martial arts.
Lin Fei noticed a problem. Although these martial arts could practice themselves, they all had their own personalities.
If their requirements were not met, they might slack off and not practice.
Giant Whale Body Refining Technique was the most obedient, steadily practicing almost every day, like a top student, steady and not arrogant.
Dragon-Elephant Vajra Fist was performing decently for now, but it would need to be observed more closely in the future.
Nine Shadow Saber Technique, Vajra Iron Cloth, and Tendon Transformation And Bone Forging Technique were more troublesome.
Nine Shadow Saber Technique was easy to solve - just buy a saber, which should be enough.
As for Vajra Iron Cloth, it required the medicine bath?
Lin Fei thought carefully and realized that it really needed the medicinal bath. After all, the Vajra Iron Cloth was a form of hard martial arts, and without the bath to repair his body, his body would eventually break down from the training. Fortunately, he had money to afford the bath.
As for the Tendon Transformation And Bone Forging Technique, that was quite interesting. Needing to listen to Buddhist and Taoist scriptures sounded peculiar, but Lin Fei had to give it a try in order to make it practice itself.
"First, I need to buy a saber," Lin Fei said as he stood up and left the room. Once he stepped outside, he saw two familiar figures.
"Zhang Yuan, Liu Hu, is that you?" Lin Fei recognized the two of them as fellow Outer Disciples of the Nine Profound Sect, and they had a good relationship.
"Lin Fei," Zhang Yuan said with a bitter smile, "Liu Hu and I are here to bid you farewell."
"Farewell?"
"Yes, we've been stuck at the third level of body refining for three years since we entered the Nine Profound Sect. Now that our three-year period is over, we've been expelled from the sect. So, we came to say goodbye."
Lin Fei fell silent. He didn't know what to say.
"Brother Lin, I heard you broke through to the fourth level of body refining yesterday. Congratulations on being able to stay in the Nine Profound Sect," Zhang Yuan said.
"It was just luck. What are your plans after leaving the mountain?" Lin Fei asked.
"I'm going back to inherit my family's business. As for Liu Hu, he's going to help me," Zhang Yuan replied.
Lin Hu knew everything about Zhang Yuan's family business and was a good friend. With Liu Hu's help, Zhang Yuan would have an extra pair of hands after leaving the mountain.
"Well, I wish you a safe journey. If you need anything in the future, you can send me a letter," Lin Fei said after some consideration.
In his memory, Zhang Yuan and Liu Hu had helped him a lot and were his best friends in the entire Nine Profound Sect. With his friends leaving the mountain, Lin Fei didn't mind helping them if he could in the future.
"Thank you, Brother Lin," Zhang Yuan said with great joy. He and Liu Hu had come to say goodbye, and getting this promise from Lin Fei was exactly what they had hoped for.
After all, Lin Fei was at the Nine Profound Sect. In the future, he may reach the fifth, sixth, or even seventh level of body refining.
At that time, he could potentially become a strong ally.
With this promise, they were satisfied.
As Lin Fei watched Zhang Yuan and Liu Hu's forlorn and desolate figures disappear, he felt a hint of emotion.
In this world, strength was paramount, whether it was in business or anything else.
Without power, one could hardly take a single step forward.
With Zhang Yuan and Liu Hu leaving the mountain, it meant that they would no longer make any progress in martial arts.
Not to mention breaking through to the acquired realm, it would be almost impossible to even reach the seventh level of body refining.
Lin Fei felt a tightness in his heart.
He was relatively lucky. He broke through to the fourth level of body refining at a critical moment and was able to stay at the Nine Profound Sect.
However, what was the use of the fourth level of body refining? He still needed to continue to improve.
Lin Fei went straight to the weapon hall.
All the weapons of the Nine Profound Sect could be purchased with contribution points, but Lin Fei did not have any.
Of course, he could use silver to buy them as well, but it would obviously be much more expensive.
However, Lin Fei had no choice now.
Among the many weapons, Lin Fei chose a superior-quality steel saber.
Although it couldn't be considered a treasure saber, it was still pretty good.
This saber cost Lin Fei twenty taels of silver.
Lin Fei also needed some Buddhist and Taoist scriptures, but he had to buy them at the foot of the mountain.
There was also the Vajra Iron Cloth's required medicinal bath, which was extremely expensive.
Lin Fei used the little silver he had left to buy ten of them at once.
Almost his silver was spent.
"Let's go back."
Lin Fei returned to his yard.
"Let's try the Nine Shadow Saber Technique."
Lin Fei took a deep breath and began to perform the Nine Shadow saber Technique.
Although Lin Fei's martial skills were self-taught, he could still feel the effects.
It was as if he were experiencing the same results as it had from its diligent training.
Lin Fei had already grasped the basics of the Nine Shadow Saber Technique and could barely perform it.
"Swish."
Lin Fei slashed out with his saber. A white light flashed by.
This is the Nine Shadow Saber Technique. The pursuit of ultimate speed.
When a slash could create two shadows, it meant that the Saber technique had become proficient.
If one could create three shadows with a single slash, then one had reached mastery.
Six shadows meant that one had achieved transcendence.
Only by creating nine shadows with one slash could one reach the perfection level.
But now, Lin Fei could only create one shadow. He had just begun.
"Your Nine Shadow Saber Technique has just acquired its precious saber. Its excitement and understanding have surged. In a moment of enlightenment, the progress of your Nine Shadow Saber Technique has increased by 100%, reaching the level of proficiency."
A sudden voice echoed in Lin Fei's mind.
"It's already proficient?"
Lin Fei widened his eyes, hardly able to believe it.
But the next moment, Lin Fei felt various insights flood his mind.
It was as if his hands had already memorized the muscle movements of the Nine Shadow Saber Technique.
Then, he slashed again.
"Shoo."
Two white lights flashed. Two shadows!
This was indeed the characteristic of a proficient Nine Shadow Saber Technique.
Usually, in combat skills, there were the levels of beginner, proficient, mastery, transcendence, perfection, and the realm of the divine.
For ordinary martial arts, achieving mastery was already impressive. Reaching transcendence was almost the limit.
And as for perfection, it was usually only achievable by special geniuses or the creators of the martial art.
And the realm of the divine? That was another level altogether.
Martial arts like the Nine Shadow Saber Technique rely heavily on one's understanding.
To achieve proficiency in one month was already very impressive.
And what about Lin Fei? He did it in one day...
It was unexpected that its potential was truly terrifying after he meet the conditions for the martial arts.
Awesome!
"Oh, and Vajra Iron Cloth. Let's have a medicinal bath and see how it works."
Seeing the rapid progress of the Nine Shadow Saber Technique, Lin Fei had great expectations for the Vajra Iron Cloth.
