61: Three technologies
Ning's body vibrated continuously, as he constantly converted all the yin into sound.
The sound kept increasing, growing louder and louder. He would stop, redo it, and eventually, he would get a headache.
After forty to fifty minutes of practice, he finally felt a severe headache and had to stop to sleep. However, he immediately began cultivating. Compared to others, his start was very difficult. Although he could easily solve this problem, he wanted to struggle for now.
"Maybe I should create another body that is truly good at cultivation so I can compare the two," Ning thought. "I should do that." "Hey, System, can you help me create a body, one that looks very weak, but possesses the best talent, physique, and spiritual root you can imagine?" Ning said.
<Spiritual Root requires 500 billion energy>
<Human body will consume 2.5 trillion energy>
<This talent will cost 1.27 trillion energy>
<Do you want to add them to the auto-purchase list?>
Ning saw these absurd numbers and chuckled inwardly, "Uh, of course, and also, show me some damage-focused martial arts that ordinary cultivators can learn within a month."
The System showed him a series of skills he could learn. Instead of directly adding these skills to his skill library, he decided to present them in the form of books so that they could be taught to everyone.
He received a total of three books, stored them in his warehouse, and then continued to cultivate all night.
In the early morning, he stopped cultivating and began to train his body. The headache had basically disappeared, and his body could move normally. As soon as the headache completely vanished, he could resume cultivation.
After finishing his cultivation and gathering the energy needed for the day, he returned to the village. "Will they accept me? Hyesi said they would, but..." He was still anxious about the situation before him. He walked slowly, but after seeing him again, people were already walking towards him. His heart began to pound, and he braced himself for whatever was to come.
But what greeted him was a group of smiling people.
"Inikaka, you're back. We've missed you these past two days," someone said.
"Are you alright, Inikaka?" another person asked.
A child said, "We're sorry for making you sad." He breathed a sigh of relief. "Hyesi was right," he thought.
"I'm sorry for lying to you all. I should have told you from the beginning that I am not a god. I was worried that if you knew who I was, you wouldn't accept me," he said.
The Villagers told him they would never do that, repeatedly emphasizing that he was their benefactor. This greatly boosted Ning's spirits.
"Can we learn today?" someone asked.
Ning smiled and said, "Of course, come on, I have new things to teach you all." Ning returned to the center of the village and took out three different books.
"Look, this book can teach you three different techniques," Ning said. The Villagers looked around in confusion. They didn't know what techniques were or why they should learn them.
"I saw you fighting a few days ago, and honestly, if you don't use any techniques, I'm afraid you won't be able to defeat that demonic snake. All of you are in the Qi Condensation First Realm, while that demonic snake is in the Qi Condensation Fourth Realm, several times stronger than you."
"However, after cultivating your physical bodies, your bodies are strong. As long as you learn more techniques and improve your attack power, I believe you can definitely take down this demonic snake." "Therefore, over the next few weeks, we will train in these techniques." "The first book is a claw technique, called Fang Claw Technique. I have five copies here. You two, distribute them to those with the strongest arm strength." As he spoke, he took out five books and passed them around.
"The second is called Twin Step Movement Technique, temporarily for those with strong leg strength to learn." As he spoke, he took out another five books and passed them over.
"The third type is called One-Strike True Skill, which is a spear technique. Those accustomed to fighting with spears should learn it." As he spoke, he handed over another five books.
About twelve people stood up after receiving the books and left to study. For those who remained, Ning began to teach them farming. He took out the freshly planted potatoes, handed them over, and taught them how to cook.
He spent dozens of efforts making several pots to boil the potatoes, and after they were cooked, Ning himself went out to read a book.
"I want to see how strong my learning ability truly is if it's not directly imparted by the System." As he spoke, he took out the original copy of "Twin Step Movement Art" and began to study.
At first, he didn't understand anything. The book talked about how to mobilize the Qi within the body, how to strengthen the legs, how to move the body, and how to switch legs.
All of this confused Ning, as he had never read such a book. But slowly, he began to understand more and more deeply.
"Oh, so I should propel myself forward with both feet simultaneously, instead of using only one foot each time I need to significantly increase speed. So I should do it like this, right?" Ning stood up and walked to an open area to try it himself.
He circulated his Qi, strengthened his legs, and prepared to leap forward. He leaped... or so he hoped. However, the sand beneath his feet slipped, causing him to slide and fall face-first.
"Cough, cough... This will take some time."
