Immortal Cultivation: When You Do Things To The Extreme

Chapter 10 Results

Late at night, the moon was bright, the stars were sparse, and it was quiet.

In the courtyard, Xu Yang stood alone, holding a bow.

On the earth wall in front, there is an arrow target drawn with charcoal, with densely packed arrows stuck in it.

The result of another night of practice.

"boom!"

Xu Yang opened the bamboo bow and shot the last arrow. The same bamboo arrow penetrated into the wall with strong force, penetrating the loess wall at the target, causing the arrow inserted on the target to be shaken off by the strong impact. One place.

Full of power!

Xu Yang was also very satisfied with this and opened the properties panel.

Xu Yang discovered one thing, that is, the difficulty of practicing skills in this world is much lower than that in the real world. The number of skills he has developed in just three years is worth most of his twenty-seven years of hard work in the real world. , in addition, many high-quality four-character entries were published.

You know, he has been practicing hard in the real world for twenty-seven years. With so many skills and characteristics, there are only two four-character entries, namely swimming like a fish in water and dreaming like Zhuang Zhou Mengdie.

In this world, in just three years, six or seven four-character entries have been created. Although none of them can compare to Zhuang Zhou Mengdie, who has its own special effects, Yu De Shui is even better.

Why is this happening?

Xu Yang didn't know, but he wasn't too entangled.

Without a solid basis for argumentation, no matter how much you think about it, there is no point. It is better to think about something practical.

What is practical?

This is the function of the new features.

As the only skill supported by the main body, diet only adds a new feature-diet therapy.

Diet therapy, as the name suggests, is the ability to treat the body through diet. Regardless of internal injuries, external injuries, or severe diseases, as long as you eat enough and eat well enough, you can eventually recover as before. It can be called a healing tool.

Skills such as breathing and sleeping remain basically unchanged. Their characteristics are basically related to physical fitness, blood and qi. Combined with the diet skills, Xu Yang's thin young body was nourished and trained into a majestic one in just three years.

In addition, the newly developed skills such as butchering, hunting, bow-making and archery have also achieved good results, successfully helping Xu Yang gain a foothold in the village, and gain the attention of the Lu family, and his living standards have skyrocketed.

Now that we have established our footing, it’s time to plan for development and become bigger and stronger.

After finishing tonight's practice, Xu Yang turned back to the house, hung the bow and arrow back on the wall, and then pulled out a large box from under the bed.

Opening the box, it was full of clothes. Xu Yang flipped to the bottom and took out a black night suit.

Xu Yang put on his night clothes, took out a dagger, inserted it into his waist, and was fully equipped. Then he quietly opened the door and left home.

Walking (walking like flying, climbing over mountains and ridges)

Hide (conceal, hold your breath)

Theft (night travel, lock picking)

In three years, Xu Yang developed three more skills by playing with his siblings and doing daily activities.

The effects of these three skills are superimposed, giving him a great advantage in night operations.

The night was as dark as water. Xu Yang, who was wearing black clothes with his head covered, was like a fish in water, completely covering up his figure, footsteps, and breath, not to mention the villagers who commonly suffer from night blindness. Even a Martial Artist with a small amount of success and keen senses would find it difficult to detect his existence and actions.

This is the superimposed effect of hiding, breathing, and night walking.

Powerful hiding ability!

Under the cover of the night, Xu Yang seemed to be running and walking vigorously, and in a blink of an eye he arrived outside the Lu family's residence.

It was already late at night, and the door of the Lu family was closed. There were servants and dogs patrolling inside at night. Although it was not very strict, ordinary thieves could not even think of breaking in and stealing.

Xu Yang was not bothered at all. He came to the corner and jumped up, stepping on the bricks and climbing up the wall.

Qinggong?

No, Xu Yang doesn't know any Qing Kung Fu, these are all the special effects of the "walking" skill.

Walking as fast as flying, climbing over mountains and ridges, the former can greatly increase the walking speed, and the latter can climb over various obstacles and terrains, not to mention the walls of a wealthy family's mansion, cliffs and mountains, Xu Yang can also walk on flat ground.

After entering the courtyard, Xu Yang went straight to the study without saying a word.

As the saying goes: It’s hard to guard against a domestic thief!

After being around for so many years, Xu Yang is already familiar with the topography of the Lu family and the distribution of houses.

Soon, he came to the study room. Using the unlocking characteristic of the "Theft" skill, he quietly unlocked the door and sneaked in. After a while, he walked out with a baggage on his back.

Afterwards, Xu Yang stopped staying and quickly left the Lu family with his baggage on his back.

…

After a while, Xu Yang returned home, put down his baggage, took off his night clothes, and lit candles.

Under the dim candlelight, Xu Yang opened the baggage, but what was inside was not gold or silver, but books bound by thread.

Xu Yang picked up a copy of "Dream Talk" and flipped through it skillfully. It seemed that this was not the first time he had done this.

It's certainly not the first time.

Xu Yang has been visiting the Lu family study since he gained the ability to hide and steal through hide-and-seek games more than a year ago.

Books are the ladder of human progress and an important way for Xu Yang to understand the world.

But there is a problem with reading, that is, you must be literate.

Xu Yang is illiterate, or does not know the words of this world. Whether it is Zhuang Zhou who came from Mengdie, or Li Qingshan, a boy from the countryside, they are both illiterate and cannot read big characters.

Fortunately, Xu Yang has the information base of attribute panel and transmigrator, and can decipher it by guessing. In the end, he directly developed the skill of "reading" and generated three characteristics of night reading, deciphering and photographic memory, no matter it is Whether it's a difficult text or a clever code word, it can be read through easily.

In this way, Xu Yang visited the Lu family's study room more than ten times, stealing the books in batches and reading them, absorbing the knowledge and information like a sponge.

Although the Lu family is a wealthy country man, their ancestors have also passed the imperial examinations and been elected. The collection of books is relatively rich. In addition to the basic titles such as the Four Books and the Five Classics, there are also various miscellaneous books such as Zhiweiguatantan, and even the martial arts that Xu Yang has been obsessed with. Included.

With this, Xu Yang finally had a general understanding of the world.

First, it is certain that this is a "normal" world.

Why do you say normal?

Because the real world where Xu Yang lives is a little abnormal.

If nothing else, just rule.

Under normal circumstances, under ancient feudal rule, the lifespan of a dynasty was at most two to three hundred years. After that, it would be turbulent and perish due to historical cycle reasons such as land annexation and official corruption.

In this way, one dynasty rises and another dynasty falls, and the world is restored to a moment of clarity. Two or three hundred years later, it will fall into such a reincarnation. This is the normal law of historical cycles, and it has been without exception from ancient times to the present.

But now the real world where Xu Yang lives is an exception. The dynasty called Great Liang has maintained its rule for more than a thousand years, and has gone through ups and downs without falling.

This is not normal, absolutely not normal. The law of historical cycles is an inevitability of human nature. When a dynasty rules for two to three hundred years, various interest groups will inevitably become too big to be eliminated and become moths that eat away at the country for their own interests, eventually destroying the country and the edifice. This It is a development process that is almost impossible to change.

There are only two possibilities for a dynasty that can still maintain its ruling framework after thousands of years of ups and downs.

First, the development of the times and the advancement of science and technology can ensure the living needs of the lower class while safeguarding the interests of the upper class. In this way, it may be possible to maintain a thousand-year rule without foreign enemies, wars, and natural disasters.

The second is simple, that is, pure force suppression, with absolute power. No matter how turbulent the bottom is and how sneaky the minds of all parties are, they can't resist this great force. Only in this way can they maintain their strength for thousands of years.

Is this Great Liang Dynasty one or two?

Naturally, Xu Yang has been fishing in Dongting Lake for decades. He does not think that the level of science and technology has improved under the rule of Great Liang. On the contrary, land annexation, powerful separatism and other symptoms of the late dynasty have appeared for many years. In this case Great Liang can still maintain his rule, even if he says there are no problems, no one will believe him.

Therefore, Xu Yang has always kept a low profile in the real world. He would rather be a fisherman on Dongting Lake that everyone can bully than use the attribute panel, skill characteristics and transmigrator's advantages to fight hard and dominate one side.

He had a hunch, an intuition, that there was something not simple behind the Great Liang. If his own strangeness was exposed, it would definitely cause endless troubles. It would be better to accumulate in dormancy, accumulate more and more, and reverse the situation.

This is the real world where Xu Yang lives. The power of Transcendent exists and cannot be acted upon rashly.

In comparison, this dream world of Zhuang Zhou Mengdie is much more normal. The historical process completely conforms to the law of cycles. The ruling lifespan of all dynasties from ancient times to the present has only been two or three hundred years. There is no cross-era technological development, and there is no power beyond the ordinary. strength.

This is a normal world, or a world with a lower level of power.

There is also martial arts in this world, but according to the various martial arts secrets in the Lu family's collection and Xu Yang's knowledge and hearing in recent years, the level of martial arts in this world is very low.

Martial Dao practice is basically about polishing the body and boiling Qi Refining blood. Although there is also talk about internal strength and even True Qi, the effect is mediocre. It is impossible to make one person into an army. Seven in and seven out is the Grandmaster character who has become True Qi. Even the strong bows and crossbows cannot be stopped, and a battalion of soldiers and horses can easily surround and kill them.

There are very few Grandmasters in the world who have mastered True Qi. They are basically the living fossils of Taishan Beidou in the martial arts world or the famous leaders of various sects.

The first-class masters in the world have only developed internal strength. The role of this internal strength is still very limited. It can basically only strengthen the body. It is a fool's dream to release the internal strength to the outside and pick leaves and flowers.

This is also the reason why Xu Yang has become more trustworthy in recent years.

With his ability to pierce Yang with a hundred steps and his three-star archery skills, his level of martial arts in this world is not low. As long as he has the bow and arrow in hand, the servants of the Li and Lu families who are guarding the courtyard are living targets for him, and he can kill them one by one. .

The only ones who pose a threat are those Martial Master instructors, but this threat is not that great, because they only know some boxing and kicking skills, and have not even developed their internal strength. They are nothing but one stone.

With this skill in archery, not to mention that Xu Yang only took a few extra bones when killing pigs, even if he openly sold part of the meat for money, the Lu family would not say anything. Not only would they not say anything, but they would also try to win over him with benefits. .

Recently, Zhang Fu, the chief steward of the Lu family, had intended to arrange a marriage for him, and wanted to betroth a woman from the Lu family to him, so that he could be completely pulled into the Lu family's warship, but he was Rejected.

If this development continues, it will not be a problem to become bigger and stronger in the future, or even become king and hegemon.

But this is not Xu Yang's pursuit. Zhuang Zhou Mengdie is Zhuang Zhou Mengdie after all, and his true identity is his foundation. He must use the resources of this world to enhance his true body's strength and relieve his increasingly embarrassing situation.

How to use it?

Xu Yang put down the miscellaneous books on strange stories and strange things, and turned his attention to the few martial arts secret books stolen this time.

It is said to be a martial arts secret book, but in fact it only contains a few superficial fist and kick skills and weapon techniques, such as the Black Tiger Fist, the Ground Blade, and the Bagua Stick, all of which are unattainable. An inner skill and mental method that can cultivate the inner strength True Qi is also No.

It's understandable. After all, the Lu family is just a country tycoon and not a martial arts sect. There are no superb martial arts secrets.

Of course, low level is not a problem for Xu Yang. He has an attribute panel and can develop skills. Even basic skills such as archery can produce powerful characteristics such as "Penetrating a Yang with a Hundred Steps" and "Three Stars in a Row". So these superficial skills His martial arts can naturally turn decay into magic.

In fact, Xu Yang is already practicing, but the time is still short and the heat is not enough. He has not yet perfected the skills and generated the entries. Once the skills are completed and the entries are generated, his strength will increase again.

By then, you can plan for advanced martial arts.

Although the advanced martial arts in this world may only be at the level of a bad street in the real world where Transcendent lives, it is better than nothing. Xu Yang, who is extremely insecure, does not resist any means that can enhance his strength.

Of course, this is a plan for the future. The main task at the moment is to first practice martial arts skills and corresponding characteristic entries to further enhance their strength.
