Chương 20: Enchanted Weapons
Ryuu didn't hesitate to use the influx of energy and immediately started to increase the rate of his Cultivation.
His soul points started to rise rapidly and in an instant they rose from 48 to 53 and kept on rising.
He was quite happy but didn't want to lose the control of what was happening due to his excitement as it could cause Qi Deviation.
Qi deviation is a dangerous state of the body when the mind doesn't coordinate with the body which leads to either excess accumulation of Qi that blocks the meridians and eventually damages them or it expends more amount of Qi than usual.
Eaither way, it's a dangerous state and many cultivators have already experienced that. At time this state might also become fatal.
Ryuu knee it very well and that was why he was controlling his emotions properly.
The trees light had already faded but it seemed like it still had some power in its roots since the roots were also giving out a faint light.
Ryuu wasn't able to feel that and continued his Cultivation.
'Good, a bit more.', he thought.
He couldn't possibly lose after getting such a golden opportunity.
His soul points reached 59 and still didn't cease to increase.
And Ryuu too didn't have a problem right now but then suddenly when the soul points had reached 76 points, Ryuu felt a bit weird.
He himself slowed down the pace of the Cultivation and eventually ceased cultivating for a while.
"W-what was that? It felt as if my heart would burst...", was what he said.
His heart was indeed beating two times faster than normal and his blood pressure was also quite high.
"This is weird... by raising soul points why is my physical body acting this way?", the soul points were to strengthen the soul and not the body.
The natural Qi ans exercises including martial arts were meant to enhance body's growth. So it was indeed quite unusual for the body to show such signs.
"Should I stop cultivating for now?", he asked himself but he didn't know if he could cultivate at the same pace later.
"Let's see...", he thought about testing his body again by resuming the Cultivation and started cultivating immediately but suddenly his heart started pounding even faster.
"Uhhh!!!", he immediately ceased when hai breath became heavy and unstable.
"What the fuck is happening? Huff huff", he was panting hard due to the unusual cause that was causing such a trouble for his body.
"Is... is it because of the cores?", he wondered.
If it weren't for the cores then everything should have been normal but since he acquired the cores which fused to his body on their own, everything had started to become abnormal for him.
His strength was being boosted due to the cores, he could borrow powers from the core and prevent Qi or soul power depletion and also he was able to gain a lot of knowledge from the cores.
"Tsk, don't tell me that the cores are trying to match my body with my soul power simultaneously?", he asked himself.
"Hmm, if that's the case then I have to build my body first.", that was the most ideal case right now.
But the Cultivation required a cool and shady place like that if a cave so he decided to go there and started the True Cultivation.
"But... if I go now, it will become too late by the time I return."
"Then mom would be worried...", he had indeed gone to forest earlier for many days but that time it was for her mother's sake.
He prioritised his monther's cure over his mother's worry because of which he didn't get second thoughts but right now he couldn't possibly make her worry since that might lead to metal issues or trauma that could have worsened her health.
"Ya, it's better if I don't go to the forest right now. Let's just take a look at the shops today. It's good if I start training from tomorrow.", after saying this he stood up and walked out of the fence boundary that was built around the tree.
He then walked towards the centre area of the village which had a bit more number of ships while compared to other areas.
It was not a very big village but it could be said that it was big enough to accommodate 3,000 people and also had many shops and stores including one or two pharmacies too.
The Medicine masters or alchemist if the lower ranks were sent here in order to gain some experience.
Ryuu was just walking towards a shop which sold weapons.
It seemed like the weapon were made here itself by some blacksmith but unfortunately this was not an area where many of the weapons could be sold.
Ryuu thought about just taking a look at the weapons and the moment he saw them, he was awed.
"This..."
His mind went blank for a second when he touched the ones of the swords placed there.
"How...?", that was the only thing that he asked himself.
He turned his gazes towards other weapons too and found that almost all of them had a similar solid base and form but even after being similar, they were quite different.
"How can Enchanted weapons be sold here?", he wondered.
He looked at the store only to find a young lady standing there and asking, "Sir, would you like to buy this?"
She wasn't actually asking Ryuu, along with Ryuu there were 2-3 more people present there who were attracted by the shine of the weapons and had come to take a look at those.
Ryuu glanced at them only to find that they were cultivators who were no stronger than bronze rank Lower Martial artist.
'I have no idea how they were able to make these, but their quality is first rate!', he thought.
He wanted to buy all of them but unfortunately he didn't have enough money.
He was abliuf to leave the place and go ahead when suddenly he heard some noise from inside on hearing which the lady ran inside.
*cough cough*
The coughing sound that was heard was so intense that it felt as if someone had coughed blood.
The 3 men who seemed to be in their 30s immediately grabbed the weapons and thought about running when they saw the lady rushing in.
"Stop, where do you think you are going?", Ryuu asked them while blocking the way.
"Brat, move out of the way!", saying this one of them ran towards him while trying to punch him.
"Tsk, this is just self defence.", saying this, Ryuu clenched his fist of left hand and punched the man in his abdomen.
'BAM'
"Arghhh!!!", the man went flying and bumped on the other two and all three of them fell down.
Hearing this all others rushed to see what had happened.
"Uhh... we were just having fun, haha.", Ryuu said but they didn't believe him.
They were interested in knowing what was happening in reality.
"You!!!", said the other two when suddenly the first one among them who initially wanted to punch Ryuu stood up and bowed in front of Ryuu.
"It was just a misunderstanding... we will take our leave.", he put down the weapons and asked the others to do the same.
And then after that all the three of them left the place and starting going on the opposite direction of where Ryuu was standing.
When others saw that the matter was over and nothing interesting happened, they too went back to do their own works.
"W-why did you leave him? We could have easily taken care of him.", said one of those three men.
"Are you a fool!? It would have been really bad if we had messed with him because it seemed like he was at least Silver rank Lower Martial realm cultivator...", the first one to attack sighed.
"Ha!!? SILVER RANK!!? THAT KID!?", other two were completely shocked when they heard this.
"Yes, donuts better if weninform this to our boss... he will definitely take care of this."
After saying this all three of them vanished from the sight.
"Sigh... I guess I need to wait until the lady comes out.", Ryuu thought that because he didn't want someone else to steal the weapons again.
