Bab 3: Chapter 2 The Cause
The Qi Cultivation supplement of the Sword Dao True Solution was undoubtedly left by an anonymous strong practitioner.
Just from the nearly identical style and the momentum of the characters, it's obvious that the unknown person who left these writings could very well be on the same level as the author of the Sword Dao True Solution itself.
The supplement shares the same tone and style as the entire Sword Dao True Solution, filled with incredibly exaggerated and almost magical descriptions.
If it weren't for the fact that it miraculously exists within Lin Fei's mind, even if it were placed right in front of him, he would never believe that such a manual could actually be used for cultivation to become more powerful.
Perhaps the person who sold him the secret manual also thought the same. After all, during the peak of the Qigong craze, there were too many books on cultivation techniques that were nonsensical and exaggerated to the extreme.
The golden sunlight of noon slanted into the living room, and at this time of the year, the temperature was already quite warm.
The air was also filled with the delicious smell of food being fried in other people's homes.
Lin Fei's family lived in a school housing assigned to his mother, Jiang Feng, located within Ping City No.1 Middle School.
Ping City No.1 Middle School is a standard public school, integrating both elementary and middle schools, which is why the sound of the school bell at the end of classes can still be faintly heard at this time.
Although their mother, Jiang Feng, works at the No.1 Middle School, neither Lin Fei nor his younger sister, Lin You, attended school there.
Lin Fei was a high school student, so that's one thing, but Lin You, still a middle school student, also did not attend No.1 Middle School.
The reason was that the school's atmosphere was really too poor, despite being ranked first in name, its actual position was at the very bottom.
Fighting, bullying, and hooliganism among the students were far too common. It was infamous throughout Ping City as a trash school.
Aside from families who truly couldn't afford the tuition of other schools and thus had no choice but to send their children there, nobody else would willingly send their kids to such an environment.
May 13th, coinciding with a Sunday, just happened to be a day when Lin Fei could lazily sleep in at home.
Having some free time, his younger sister, Lin You, arranged to go shopping with friends.
However, their father had no time off, as the small bookstore did a substantial business, becoming especially busy on the weekends.
After finishing the meal, their mother, Jiang Feng, hurried out the door to help out at the store as well.
During this period, the family was relatively well-off, with their mother, Jiang Feng, earning over two thousand a month, and the bookstore also making a net income of about four thousand after expenses.
In comparison with the neighboring families, their own financial situation was quite good indeed.
However, Lin Fei was aware that as soon as his sister's scores reached the admission criteria for No.3 Middle School, the family would have to spend a large sum of money on tuition fees.
After sending Lin You to high school, due to the high tuition fees of No.3 Middle School, the family's finances suddenly became tight.
Since Lin Fei himself was already enrolled in No.3 Middle School and spending a considerable amount each year, with his sister joining too, the yearly expenses were doubled.
Because of this, both their mother and father developed very frugal habits over the years.
After returning to his room, Lin Fei cleared his desk of textbooks and homework notebooks and sat down to carefully plan his future life.
The golden rays of sunlight that filled the room made the floating dust particles clearly visible, settling in a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere.
Lin Fei pulled out a new notebook from his desk drawer, picked up his fountain pen, and started to record his plans.
"If I want to avoid that disaster, I must first acquire the ability to protect myself.
This was once the most unimaginable aspect, but with the Sword Dao True Solution, it may be possible to achieve.
It's too early to say whether the Sword Dao True Solution can be cultivated; I can't even recall its content, let alone follow it for cultivation purposes.
The supplementary Qi Cultivation text, however, does contain some cultivation methods worth trying to see."
"Then there is understanding my sister's world, that extraordinary world accessible only to the exceptional.
There are two years to explore slowly; if I pay close attention, I should be able to pick up on clues from Lin You's daily activities.
And as for seeking revenge, the first step is to find out who that person with the red hair really is."
Lin Fei picked up the pen and wrote the words "Red hair" and "Flame" prominently in the notebook.
"It's quite simple then, find a way to become stronger, and then venture into that hidden Inner World.
I need to learn who my enemy is, their identity, their background, and how powerful they are—all under the premise that I'm qualified to enter the Inner World."
Lin Fei slowly capped his pen. Now that he had a plan for the future, it was time to act on it.
He immediately began to meditate and recall the content of the Qi Cultivation section from the book.
Soon, segments of information began to materialize within his mind.
"The Sword Dao True Solution originally contained no tangible text, only housing three indescribable sword shadow recordings.
Yet, having acquired this Peerless Secret Manual known for its ominous reputation, I naturally wish to follow in the footsteps of my predecessors, providing annotations to serve as warnings for future generations.—Zhang Yuan of the Jue Xian Sect."
Lin Fei suspected that this Zhang Yuan was likely the strong practitioner who left the Qi Cultivation section. But as he was fully absorbed in the information, the thought merely flickered in his mind, and he promptly returned to the content.
"Unlike other Sword Cultivators' techniques, the Sword Dao True Solution emphasizes seizing the essence of heaven and earth, cutting off that thread of life and integrating it into oneself. It's about the forceful plundering of the spiritual Qi from the outside world.
But the vitality of heaven and earth is immensely powerful; without a solid foundation of one's own, one can easily end up following the path of a pure Demon Cultivator. As the saying goes, 'The depths of technique and strength are inexhaustible.'"
