2: Can "a thousand miles a day" be explained like this? (Newcomer
Chapter 2: Can 'A Thousand Miles a Day' Be Interpreted This Way? (Newbie seeking collections)
"A Thousand Miles a Day?"
"Does that mean it can make me travel A Thousand Miles a Day?"
"Although it doesn't enhance my strength, having such speed would be good."
"This way, I can go to Dali at the fastest speed to find the Bei Ming Divine Skill."
Ning Yuan muttered softly to himself, then activated 'A Thousand Miles a Day'.
The description of the talent immediately imprinted itself on his mind.
Seeing this information, Ning Yuan's expression gradually became strange.
[A Thousand Miles a Day: If you have a woman for one night, your Cultivation speed will increase a thousandfold or ten thousandfold during the day.]
Note: The more beautiful the appearance, the more Luck it occupies, and the higher the increase. The effect on the same person will decrease tenfold each time (e.g., first time a thousandfold, second time a hundredfold, third time tenfold, fourth time twofold, and thereafter always twofold; effects cannot overlap during the increase period.)
"The 'day' in A Thousand Miles a Day is *that* kind of day?"
"Can this 'day' be understood in such a way?"
Ning Yuan's mind was full of questions.
His expression also became increasingly peculiar.
This talent effect truly exceeded his understanding.
"Although this talent is a bit strange, a thousandfold increase in Cultivation speed is truly abnormal."
"Doesn't this mean that one day of my Cultivation is equivalent to three years of Cultivation?"
Ning Yuan's eyes lit up, and he immediately became excited.
This meant that his strength could rapidly increase.
If he could obtain the Bei Ming Divine Skill, he could master it at the fastest speed.
Overcoming the weakness of the slow Cultivation speed in the early stages of Bei Ming Divine Skill.
"Even if the effect on the same person decreases each time, there are so many stunning beauties in demi-gods and semi-devils, enough for me to become stronger."
Ning Yuan muttered to himself... Outside the house.
"Third Brother Bao, Fourth Brother Feng, what exactly happened during your month-long absence?"
"Why did Cousin suddenly faint after he returned?"
Wang Yuyan asked anxiously, looking at the two.
Bao Butong and Feng Boe were two of Murong Fu's four great generals, loyal and devoted.
"Well..."
Bao Butong and Feng Boe exchanged glances, hesitating and avoiding eye contact.
"What exactly happened? Tell me quickly!"
Seeing this, Wang Yuyan became even more anxious.
A Zhu and A Bi also nodded in agreement, "Third Brother, Fourth Brother, hurry up and speak!"
"Alas!"
Seeing this, Bao Butong suddenly sighed, then abruptly looked at Feng Boe beside him, and slapped Feng Boe with the back of his hand, "You tell her!"
"Me?"
Feng Boe, having received a slap, immediately retaliated with a slap to Bao Butong, "You tell her."
"You tell her!"
The two slapped each other more than a dozen times, and only then did Feng Boe reluctantly say:
"This time, we accompanied Young Master to meet someone to purchase military equipment. Unexpectedly, this person was shameless, tried to get something for nothing, and even mocked us. Although we eventually eliminated him, five hundred thousand taels of silver were also lost."
"Young Master is very likely to have fainted suddenly due to this matter weighing heavily on his mind."
Feng Boe speculated.
"Such a thing happened?"
A Zhu was stunned, and Wang Yuyan beside her also showed worry.
She knew very well how strong Murong Fu's obsession with restoring his country was.
If it was because of this matter, it wasn't illogical.
Only A Bi shook her head, "Impossible. Young Master's mind is not that narrow-minded. Moreover, you all said this matter happened many days ago. If Young Master was truly affected by this, how could it only manifest now? This is definitely not the main reason."
A Bi's face was firm, believing in Murong Fu.
"I'll go find Cousin now."
Wang Yuyan suddenly interrupted, saying resolutely... Not long after.
"Cousin? Are you resting?"
Wang Yuyan's hesitant voice came from outside the door.
"Come in."
Ning Yuan opened his eyes, suppressed his restless mood, and got up to sit at the table.
Creak!
As the door opened, Wang Yuyan, dressed in a light pink long dress, walked in cautiously, her gaze towards Murong Fu filled with worry.
"Cousin, are you really alright?"
"Was it because you were too tired from Cultivating recently that you fainted?"
Wang Yuyan came to her Cousin's side and immediately asked with concern.
Looking at such a beautiful Cousin who adored him, Ning Yuan secretly cursed Murong Fu for being ungrateful and blind, but on the surface, he also showed a smile, "Don't worry, I just didn't rest well. I'm fine now."
"That's good."
Wang Yuyan let out a long breath, "Cousin, the matter of restoring the country should be discussed in the long run. As for the matter of the five hundred thousand taels of silver, it can't be recovered in the end. Cousin, you must relax."
"Five hundred thousand taels..."
Ning Yuan was stunned when he heard this, then reacted, finally understanding what time node he was in.
Ning Yuan concealed the unusual look in his eyes, then said, "Don't worry, mere worldly possessions are not something I dwell on."
"This fainting should be due to many days of exhaustion."
Ning Yuan casually found an excuse.
"That's great! I knew Cousin wasn't like that. But Cousin, you've worked too hard. You should have rested more long ago."
Wang Yuyan gently bit her lip, advising softly.
After speaking, she lowered her head, expecting to be scolded by her Cousin, but this time, it didn't happen.
"Cousin, you're right. I do need to rest well for the next few days. How about this, tomorrow I'll send you back to Mantuo Manor. It's also been a long time since I paid my respects to Aunt."
Ning Yuan suddenly said.
"Really?"
Hearing this, Wang Yuyan suddenly looked up, her eyes sparkling as she stared at Ning Yuan, her exquisitely beautiful face filled with surprise.
After all, the former Murong Fu would not have been so proactive.
His mind was entirely on the great cause of restoring the country.
He was always cold to her enthusiasm, as if he didn't see it.
This reaction today naturally made Wang Yuyan, who adored her Cousin, overjoyed.
"Of course, when have I ever lied to you!"
Ning Yuan smiled slightly.
This was indeed true, because the former Murong Fu would always directly refuse, so there was no need to lie.
The main reason he was going this time was to obtain the exact location of Langhuan Paradise from Madam Wang's mouth.
After all, Duan Yu also stumbled into the valley by mistake after leaving the Wuliang Sword Sect and found it.
And Wuliang Mountain was so vast, with many valleys, he didn't have Duan Yu's Luck. Even if he tried to search, he probably wouldn't be able to find it in a short time.
And time was something he couldn't afford to waste.
"That's great! I'll go back and prepare now."
Wang Yuyan said with a joyful expression, then quickly left the room... And after Wang Yuyan left, Ning Yuan also sat down.
Thinking about what Wang Yuyan had mentioned earlier, he was thoughtful.
"So the plot has already reached this point, the very beginning of the demi-gods and semi-devils story."
"In that case, the Beggar Clan is also about to re-elect its leader and will soon head to Yunnan. The Four Evils have also joined the First Rank Hall. Duan Yu, at this time, might not have obtained the unique skills within Langhuan Paradise yet."
Ning Yuan's eyes flickered.
This meant that if he set off in the next few days, he could find the two unique skills, Bei Ming Divine Skill and Lingbo Microstep.
The System had reminded him that even if he had enough Luck, he could only exchange for things he had acquired in the main world.
Things he hadn't acquired, even with enough Luck, couldn't be exchanged.
Therefore, within these three months, he must acquire as many unique skills as possible.
"But the most important thing right now is to first familiarize myself with my martial arts."
Ning Yuan took a deep breath. Even in the previous world for three months, he had only just come into contact with martial arts, knowing some basic knowledge, but he hadn't had time to Cultivate it.
About half an hour later.
A Bi, in a emeraldgreen long dress, walked in carrying a lunchbox.
"Young Master, you haven't eaten all day. You must be hungry, right? I brought some food."
A Bi carefully placed the lunchbox on the table, then took out the dishes one by one.
Thoughtful and meticulous.
"You are considerate."
Ning Yuan opened his eyes and said softly.
In the original story, A Bi was the one who always accompanied Murong Fu, and even when Murong Fu went mad, she never left him.
Although Ning Yuan was not the real Murong Fu, such a woman would always make one feel good.
"This is what A Bi should do."
A Bi lowered her head and offered the chopsticks with both hands.
Ning Yuan, however, did not take the chopsticks, but instead held A Bi's soft hand.
A Bi suddenly looked up at Ning Yuan, her cheeks flushed.
She had long been in love with Murong Fu, but had never dared to show it, only silently supporting him from behind.
"Young Master..."
A Bi called out softly.
"No food today, I'll eat you!"
Ning Yuan gently pulled, and A Bi was drawn into his embrace.
A Bi's face was red, but she did not refuse.
This was not Ning Yuan being lustful.
He just wanted to test the effect of his talent... The next day.
Ning Yuan sat cross-legged in his room, Cultivating.
An hour later, Ning Yuan opened his eyes.
His eyes gleamed with excitement.
"This Cultivation speed is indeed A Thousand Miles a Day!"
He had also Cultivated yesterday, so he knew what his previous Cultivation speed was like.
And Cultivating today, it was indeed hundreds or thousands of times faster than yesterday.
In just a short hour, it was as if he had Cultivated for several months, and his internal energy had significantly increased.
At his current Realm, it was no longer easy to increase his internal energy by even a tiny bit, requiring a lot of time.
But he had only Cultivated for an hour and had already made obvious progress.
[Current World: demi-gods and semi-devils]
[Departure Countdown: 99 days]
[Luck: 1]
[Current Identity: Murong Fu]
[Current Talent: A Thousand Miles a Day (Active, Cultivation speed increased 1000 times)]
[Cultivation: First-rate]
[Martial Arts: Star Shift, Canhe Finger...]
"Luck has actually increased by 1 point. Is it because I took A Bi?"
"I wonder how much Luck these martial arts require to exchange."
Ning Yuan glanced at his current attribute panel and muttered to himself.
At this moment, a few more lines of text appeared on the attribute panel.
[Canhe Finger: 30 Luck points to exchange]
[Star Shift: 100 Luck points to exchange]
..."Star Shift already requires 100 points. Then unique skills like Xiao Wu Xiang Skill, Bei Ming Divine Skill, Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms, Six Meridian Divine Sword, wouldn't they require hundreds of points?"
Seeing these exchange requirements, Ning Yuan was startled, and a sense of urgency immediately ignited within him.
"It seems I can't sit around and wait. I need to take action today."
"Luck!"
"I must harvest as much Luck as possible!"
Ning Yuan clenched his fists, his eyes filled with determination.
His main body in the main world was currently a condemned criminal, to be executed in the marketplace three days later. He had to accumulate enough Luck to recover from his injuries and enhance his strength as quickly as possible.
Only then could he break out of prison upon returning to the main world.
For the rest of the time, Ning Yuan Cultivated continuously, except for meals, until evening when the thousandfold Cultivation speed boost ended. Only then did Ning Yuan get up.
A Zhu, A Bi, and Wang Yuyan were all waiting outside the door.
"Young Master (Cousin)!"
All three looked at Ning Yuan, especially A Bi, whose gaze was evasive.
Ning Yuan, however, was completely at ease, as if nothing had happened yesterday.
"Yesterday, I promised to send Cousin back to Mantuo Manor. During the day, I was delayed because I had some insights into a Cultivation Technique. I'm now ready to send Cousin back. A Bi, you and A Zhu stay here for now and inquire about the latest news in the Jianghu for me."
Ning Yuan's gaze fell on A Bi and A Zhu.
A Zhu immediately said, "Young Master, rest assured."
A Bi, who had been stunned, also quickly reacted, "Young Master, don't worry, A Zhu and I will not miss any major Jianghu news."
"I trust you two to handle things."
Ning Yuan nodded in satisfaction.
Subsequently, Ning Yuan took Wang Yuyan and left by boat.
Although it was evening and the sky was dark.
Fortunately, Mantuo Manor was not too far away.
Watching Ning Yuan and Wang Yuyan leave.
Bao Butong crossed his arms over his chest, marveling.
"It's truly strange that Young Master is actually taking the initiative to send Miss Wang back this time."
"Perhaps Young Master has had an Aperture Opening and finally understood Miss Wang's feelings."
Feng Boe chuckled beside him.
"Don't you two still have things to do? Why are you still standing here?"
A Bi's expression was a little displeased, and she couldn't help but say.
"Hahaha, Miss A Bi is angry. Let's go, let's go!"
Bao Butong laughed heartily, pulling Feng Boe and quickly leaving.
Leaving only an annoyed A Bi.
A Zhu beside her also shook her head helplessly, "A Bi, you stay here and guard. I'll go inquire about recent news nearby."
A Zhu said, having changed her appearance.
She was skilled in disguise, which made traveling the Jianghu extremely convenient.
"Sister A Zhu, be careful."
A Bi nodded gently.
