Creation and immortality: I can manifest endless talents

It is late autumn, year 8152 of the Vatican calendar.

Cangzhou, Yufeng Mansion, Wancheng.

In the evening, the setting sun is like blood.

Outside the city wall, in a temporary shack, Gu Yang's family of four, wearing shabby and thin clothes, huddled on a hay mat, looking at each other in silence.

It rained heavily during the day in Wancheng, and the ground was now wet and cold.

The white mist fills the air, making people feel chilly.

The seven-year-old Yaomei's little face was purple and blue from the cold, and her whole body was shaking. Her little hands covered with frostbite tightly held the corner of Gu's mother's clothes and kept digging into her arms.

There were constant coughing sounds from the shack next door. It seemed that the mother-in-law of the Zhang family had contracted the cold and was not sure whether she could survive it.

The world is miserable, and after a major disaster, the weather changes again. I don’t know how many victims fell asleep overnight and never opened their eyes again.

In the shack, the gray-haired head of the family, Gu Dashan, suddenly whispered: "Caihua, the government called us over today. They said they would give each of our families two taels of silver to buy food, and then let us go back to the village."

"Two taels of silver, so much?" Gu Mu Wang Caihua's eyes widened, her hands trembled, and she said excitedly: "Master, are you right?"

"I'm right, but I didn't agree." Gu Dashan held Gu's mother's cold right hand, "I don't want the two taels of silver either."

"Why not?" Mother Gu's expression changed and she asked, "Are you confused? That's only two taels of silver. We won't be able to save so much money in several years!"

Glancing at his son who kept his head down and silent, Gu Dashan lowered his voice: "I want to send Erlang to the martial arts academy!"

A bright light appeared in Gu Dashan's eyes, "I used these two taels of silver to buy Erlang the qualification to join the martial arts academy without taking the exam. This is the government's compensation for us people who were affected by the disaster!"

"You also know that a few years ago, the rich Guo family in our village wanted to send their stupid son to the martial arts academy. They spent all their money to collect twenty taels of silver, but the adults in the martial arts academy didn't even look at it. If he is not talented enough, he will If you want to join the martial arts academy, you have to spend one hundred taels of silver at one time!"

"Join the martial arts academy?" Gu's mother's breath was stagnant, and her face was a little worried, "I heard that the martial arts academy is a place to train martial artists. Those who can join the martial arts academy are all great people. Our village has eight villages and ten miles apart. There isn’t one, how can Xiaoyang do it?”

"I believe him. Moreover, Erlang has been secretly doing some abdominal crunches, floor presses and other movements recently. I tried it myself. They should be some body-building movements I learned from somewhere. Since he wants to practice martial arts, go to the martial arts academy It’s better than practicing blindly by yourself, otherwise what will happen if your body gets damaged?”

Turning his head sharply to look at Gu Yang, Gu Dashan's eyes were bright and he said, "Erlang, I know that you survived this disaster and got stimulated and want to learn martial arts. After you enter the martial arts academy, you should practice hard and don't slack off."

"Yes..." Gu Yang raised his head and responded.

He had been listening to the conversation between the two. He never thought that his secret exercise during this period would be discovered by his carpenter father, and he would be given the qualification to practice martial arts in exchange for him.

Of course, what Gu Dashan didn't know was that the reason why he exercised was not because he was stimulated, but because Gu Yang was no longer the simple mountain boy he was before.

Twenty days ago, the Mangshan Mountain near Houshan Village shook, the mountain god awakened, and a terrible earthquake occurred within a ten-mile radius.

Gu Yang was hit on the head by a falling beam and fell unconscious on the spot. If Gu Dashan hadn't escaped with him at the critical moment, he would have been buried inside the collapsed house.

A little while later, on the way to escape, Gu Yang finally woke up, and everyone in the Gu family cried with joy.

But they didn't know that Erlang of the Gu family was already a different person at this time.

In the past half month, Gu Yang, who has integrated the memories of Erlang of the Gu family, has become initially familiar with his parents, family and the surrounding environment.

My father is the only carpenter in Houshan Village, and my mother is an ordinary rural woman.

He is the second eldest child in his family. He has an older brother who is two years older than him, but he died when he was four years old. He also has a younger sister who is seven years old this year.

This is a very ordinary family. The family is not rich, but they are not so poor that they cannot afford to eat.

At the same time, after this period of exploration, he also knew what kind of world this was.

Practice in a prosperous age!

According to word of mouth among the people, this is a mythical world!

There is a strong martial artist from the human race who stands in the sky and kills the dragon with his sword.

There is a beast king in the mountains who controls all beasts and sets off a tide of beasts.

Mountains and rivers may give birth to spiritual wisdom, and their movements may cause natural disasters and lead to the destruction of all living beings.

Ordinary society is as fragile as ants. At any time, due to a disaster, it may turn into a sentence recorded in local historical materials: "Countless people died..."

Living in such a dangerous world, if you want to control your own destiny, the only way is to practice martial arts!

The Martial Arts Academy is the official place where Wancheng trains warriors, and it is also the only "martial arts academy" in Wancheng. Even the Gu Yang family, who lives at the foot of the mountain, is aware of the reputation of the Martial Arts Academy.

The opportunity was right in front of him, and of course he wouldn't miss it.

Gu Yang looked serious and replied firmly: "Dad, don't worry, after entering the martial arts academy, I will definitely practice hard and strive to become a warrior!"

"Okay, you and I will go to the government office tomorrow morning. After getting the voucher, I will take you to the martial arts academy to register." Gu Dashan did not attack Gu Yang, but directly finalized the matter.

At this time, Gu's mother on the side said worriedly: "I heard that practicing martial arts costs a lot of money. We escaped in a hurry and didn't take out the money buried in the ground. I'm afraid the money we have will not last long."

"Mom, Yingying eats very little. I can leave all the porridge to my brother. Just take a small bite at a time." In Gu's mother's arms, the youngest sister Gu Yingying suddenly raised her hand and whispered.

"Yingying!" Upon hearing this, Gu Yang quickly hugged Gu Yingying into his arms, "Don't worry, my brother won't let you starve!"

"Okay, what are you talking about? How can I, Gu Dashan, let my children starve?" Gu Dashan clenched his fist and slammed the straw mat, "Erlang went to the martial arts academy to practice martial arts, and I went to the city to work , I don’t believe it. With my skills, I can’t find a job in the city?”

"That's right, the silly girl is talking nonsense." Gu's mother hugged Gu Yingying tightly and slapped her twice on the back.

"Okay, let's not talk about this topic anymore, let's rest."

Gu Dashan waved his hand, then fell down on the outermost edge of the straw mat, tightened his clothes and curled up.

Seeing this, Gu's mother and Yaomei also closed their mouths and lay side by side on the straw mat.

Her mother slept on the innermost side to block the wind that leaked in from behind the shack. Gu Yingying was right next to Gu's mother.

There was another seat that should have been for Gu Yang, but Gu Yang was still sitting where he was, looking outside the shack, hesitant.

Gu Dashan saw what Gu Yang was thinking and said, "You want to go out? Go ahead and bring two wotou with you. Don't come back too late. We have to go into the city tomorrow."

"Okay, dad..."

…

During this period, Gu Yang would take time to exercise every day.

In the past, he was still looking for various reasons and excuses, but tonight was the first time he went out openly.

With the steamed bun in his arms, he quickly came to the edge of the shack area and found a relatively dry ground. Gu Yang took a deep breath and started jumping around quickly to warm up.

During this period, in addition to the porridge provided by the government every day, Gu Dashan would bring back a few steamed buns to share with him every day when he went to the city. This was also the reason why he was able to continue to exercise.

A quarter of an hour later, Gu Yang felt that his body had warmed up, and he began to do push-ups with his hands on the ground.

In his previous life, he was just an ordinary person. He had never even been to a gym, and he didn't know any other exercise methods. He only knew the most common exercise methods such as push-ups, sit-ups, and planks.

Recently I have been exercising in these ways.

With your arms perpendicular to the ground, your toes on the ground, tighten your abdomen, bring your legs together and stretch them behind your body.

After Gu Yang assumed the standard push-up position, he began to bend his elbows and slowly brought his body closer to the ground. He paused for a moment, then raised his arms and returned to their original position.

After doing two sets of twenty times without interruption, Gu Yang's arms were trembling slightly, but he continued to persist until...

[Skill ‘exercise’ proficiency +1]

A line of small words that seemed to be illusory and real flashed across his eyes. Gu Yang finally let out a sigh of relief, propped himself up and stood up.

After a short rest, Gu Yang started doing sit-ups again.

He lay on his back on the ground, slightly holding his ears with his hands, straightening his legs, then exerting force on his waist and abdomen, and straightening his body.

It was the same set of twenty times, but this time Gu Yang persisted for nearly three sets before the line of small characters appeared again.

[Skill ‘exercise’ proficiency +1]

Next comes the plank, then the squat…

Gu Yang completed all the exercises he was familiar with. After exhausting his energy, he lay on his back and gasped for air.

In the night sky, the moon and stars were sparse.

Thirteen bright moons hang high in the sky, casting a clear light that makes the ground look white.

His eyes were closed, and all he could see was darkness, except for a starlight in the center.

Gu Yang put his consciousness into it, and the starlight gradually expanded, turning into a mysterious seed, the seed of creation!

At the same time, three lines of friendly words about his hometown appeared in front of his eyes.

[Miracle of Creation - Gift of Life: Everything you learn and cultivate is turned into skills to help your body evolve. As your body's quality continues to transform, your body's potential will gradually be developed, giving you ready-made talents. 】

[Skill: Exercise·Introduction (55/100)]

[Talent: None]

…

Twenty days ago, Gu Yang woke up on the way to escape and discovered this starlight that accompanied him through time.

When he usually opens his eyes, the starlight will not appear. Only when he closes his eyes and calls out in his heart, the starlight will appear and turn into a form that Gu Yang can understand, a seed!

As long as he sees this seed, a series of mysterious and complex text symbols will naturally appear in his mind.

It is said to be writing, but in fact it is not the writing used by any civilization in the world.

Somehow, Gu Yang already understood in his heart that the mysterious and complicated string of words was actually a carrier of Tao.

The great road has no trace, and it must have its own way of carrying it before it can be seen by the world.

If there is no carrier, it would be like the Tao that exists everywhere in the world, and everyone in the world will turn a blind eye.

Just like the Tao of Creation, as his thoughts turn, the string of mysterious words can be transformed into any expression he is familiar with according to his thoughts.

Chinese, English, Arabic numerals, or other are all acceptable.

Gu Yang has always suspected that his sudden time travel was precisely because of this Tao seed.

It's just that he is too weak now, but there is no way to investigate and verify this matter. He can only suppress it in his heart and work hard to become stronger.

After this period of continuous hard work, he has now transformed his training into skills and raised his proficiency to 55 points.

The change brought about is that his body is much stronger than when he first came to this world. With one arm, he can barely lift things weighing more than 100 pounds.

Gu Yang believes that as long as he is given enough time, even if it is just through exercise, he can transform his physical fitness and stimulate his potential.

However, since he can practice martial arts, this exercise is not necessary...

Gu Yang suddenly opened his eyes, staring at the thirteen bright moons in the night sky, and swore in his heart that one day, he will definitely become a martial arts master!
