"System."
Lin Fei accessed the system panel to check the progress of each martial art.
Host: Lin Fei
Martial Arts Realm: Body Refining Fourth Level
Giant Whale Body Refining Technique: Fourth Level (6% Progress)
Dragon-Elephant Vajra Fist: Beginner (11% Progress)
Nine Shadow Saber Technique: Beginner (1% Progress)
Vajra Iron Cloth: First Level (3% Progress)
Tendon Transformation And Bone Forging Technique: First Level (5% Progress)
Lin Fei looked at the martial arts progress on the system panel. He was currently only at the fourth level of Body Refining. But he had as many as five martial arts. Three of them were Body Refining martial arts, and two were combat martial arts.
Lin Fei discovered a problem. Indeed, his martial arts could cultivate themselves. However, the key was that these martial arts had their own personalities.
If their requirements were not met, they could "strike" and refuse to work. They could be lazy and not cultivate.
The Giant Whale Body Refining Technique was currently the most obedient, steadily cultivating almost every day. Like a model student, it was neither arrogant nor impatient, making steady progress.
The Dragon-Elephant Vajra Fist's performance was also satisfactory for now. But how it would fare in the long run remained to be seen.
The Nine Shadow Saber Technique, Vajra Iron Cloth, and Tendon Transformation And Bone Forging Technique were a bit more problematic.
The Nine Shadow Saber Technique could be easily solved. Just buying a saber should be enough.
As for Vajra Iron Cloth, it required a medicinal bath?
Upon careful consideration, Lin Fei realized that it indeed needed a medicinal bath.
After all, this Vajra Iron Cloth was a type of horizontal hard martial art training. Without a medicinal bath to heal the body, it would break down due to practice.
This problem could also be solved, as long as he had money to afford the medicinal bath.
As for the Tendon Transformation And Bone Forging Technique, this was quite interesting.
It required listening to Buddhist and Taoist scriptures?
It sounded intriguing, but in order to make the Tendon Transformation And Bone Forging Technique cultivate properly, Lin Fei had no choice but to give it a try.
"Let's go buy a saber first."
Lin Fei got up and left the room. As soon as he stepped outside, he saw two familiar figures.
"Zhang Yuan, Liu Hu, what are you doing here?"
Lin Fei remembered these two people. Both were outer disciples of the Nine Profound Sect, just like Lin Fei. And they were good friends.
"Lin Fei."
Zhang Yuan said with a bitter smile, "Liu Hu and I are here to say goodbye to you."
"Goodbye?"
"Yes, we've been in the Nine Profound Sect for three years and have been stuck at the third level of Body Refining. Now that our three-year term is up, we've been expelled from the sect. So, we came to say goodbye."
Lin Fei was silent. He didn't know what to say.
"Brother Lin, I heard that you broke through to the fourth level of Body Refining yesterday. Congratulations, you can stay in the Nine Profound Sect."
"It was just a fluke. Zhang Yuan, Liu Hu, what are your plans after leaving the sect?" Lin Fei asked.
"I'm going back to inherit my family's business. As for Liu Hu, he's planning to go down the mountain and help me."
Zhang Yuan's family was in business. Liu Hu knew him very well and the two got along well. With Liu Hu's help, Zhang Yuan would have an extra pair of hands after leaving the mountain.
"Then I wish you both smooth sailing. If you need anything in the future, feel free to send me a letter."
Lin Fei considered it for a moment and made the promise. In his memory, both Zhang Yuan and Liu Hu had helped him a lot. They were his best friends in the entire Nine Profound Sect.
Now that his friends were leaving the sect, Lin Fei didn't mind helping them if he had the power to do so in the future.
"Thank you, Brother Lin."
Zhang Yuan was overjoyed. He and Liu Hu came to say goodbye just to wait for Lin Fei's promise.
After all, Lin Fei was still in the Nine Profound Sect.
In the future, he might reach the fifth, sixth, or even higher levels of Body Refining. By then, he could be a powerful ally.
With this promise, they were satisfied.
Looking at the desolate and forlorn figures of Zhang Yuan and Liu Hu, Lin Fei couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
In this world, power was supreme. Whether in business or anything else, without power, it was difficult to make progress.
Zhang Yuan and Liu Hu's departure from the mountain meant that they wouldn't achieve much in martial arts. Not to mention breaking through to the acquired realm, even reaching the seventh level of Body Refining was almost impossible.
Lin Fei felt a sense of urgency. He was relatively lucky. At a critical moment, he broke through to the fourth level of Body Refining and could stay in the Nine Profound Sect.
But the fourth level of Body Refining was nothing. He still needed to continue to improve.
Lin Fei entered the weapon hall directly. The weapons of the Nine Profound Sect could be purchased with contribution points. But Lin Fei had no contribution points.
Of course, silver could be used as well. However, it would be much more expensive that way. But Lin Fei had no choice at the moment.
Among the various weapons, Lin Fei chose a high-quality fine steel saber. Although it couldn't be considered a treasure saber, it was still very good.
This saber cost Lin Fei twenty taels of silver.
Lin Fei still needed some Buddhist scriptures and Taoist scriptures.
There was no other way, he had to go down the mountain to buy them.
And the medicinal bath. The medicinal bath required for Vajra Iron Cloth was extremely expensive.
Lin Fei used the remaining silver to purchase ten portions at once. Almost all of his silver was spent.
"Let's go back."
Lin Fei returned to his courtyard.
"Let's try the Nine Shadow Saber Technique."
Lin Fei took a deep breath. He began to perform the Nine Shadow Saber Technique.
Although Lin Fei's martial skills could be practiced autonomously, after practicing, Lin Fei could feel it as if he had experienced it himself. It was as if Lin Fei had painstakingly practiced the skill himself.
Lin Fei's Nine Shadow Saber Technique was at the beginner level. Thus, he could barely perform it.
"Whoosh."
Lin Fei swung his saber.
Only a single white light flashed.
This was the Nine Shadow Saber Technique, pursuing the ultimate speed.
When one saber swing produced two shadows, it meant that the saber technique was proficient.
If one could swing the saber and produce three shadows, it would be mastery.
Producing six shadows meant transcendence.
To achieve perfection, one had to swing the saber and produce nine shadows.
But now, Lin Fei could only produce one shadow. He was merely a beginner.
"Your Nine Shadow Saber Technique has just acquired a treasure saber, its mood is excited, and its comprehension greatly increases. The progress of your Nine Shadow Saber Technique practice has increased by 100%, reaching the proficient realm."
A voice suddenly came into Lin Fei's mind.
"Already proficient?"
Lin Fei widened his eyes as if he couldn't believe it. But in the next moment, Lin Fei's mind was filled with various insights. It was as if his hands had the muscle memory of the Nine Shadow Saber Technique.
Then, he swung his saber again.
"Shoo."
Two white lights flashed.
Two shadows!
This was indeed the characteristic of the proficient Nine Shadow Saber Technique.
General combat martial arts are divided into beginner, proficient, mastery, transcendence, perfection, and the realm of the divine.
For an ordinary martial artist, reaching mastery is already very good. Reaching transcendence is almost the limit.
As for perfection?
Basically, only special geniuses or the creators of martial art can achieve perfection.
And the realm of the divine?
That's another level.
Martial arts like the Nine Shadow Saber Technique place great emphasis on comprehension.
Reaching proficiency in one month is already very impressive.
But Lin Fei?
Just one day...
He didn't expect that the autonomous practice of these martial arts was so terrifying when he meet the conditions of them.
"Right, there's also Vajra Iron Cloth. Let's soak in the medicinal bath first and test its effects."
Seeing the rapid progress of the Nine Shadow Saber Technique, Lin Fei naturally held high expectations for Vajra Iron Cloth as well.
