Chapter 119: Conditions (I)

Chen Yiming quickly browsed through the contents of the second last page.

There was not much information, only a few hundred words, but it took more time to read than all the previous pages combined.

“Whoosh…”

A breeze blew through the air, bringing with it a hint of coolness.

Yue Yangpeng, Mo Yanfei, and Yue Jingtian looked nervously at the masked man, hoping that he would keep his promise.

After memorizing the content, Chen Yiming closed his eyes and tried to recall what he had read.

The information on this page was about the cultivation method for the transformation of internal force. The core point was the number of concept diagrams for a cultivation technique.

For example, the concept diagram of the Mountain Moving Fist Technique was a huge mountain floating in the void.

Looking from each of the six directions — top, bottom, front, back, left, and right of the mountain — one could obtain six concept diagrams of the same type. Each of these six concept diagrams could help a warrior candidate to break through to the warrior realm.

One concept diagram could only reflect a small portion of the entire mountain’s concept. When the six concept diagrams were combined, they could reflect a large portion of the mountain’s concept.

For a technique in the warrior realm, cultivating with three concept diagrams could change the form of one’s internal force. If one cultivated a technique with six concept diagrams, this was considered by the pioneers of human martial arts as a complete technique in the first stage of the warrior realm.

In other words, for the first stage of the warrior realm, those techniques cultivated with less than six concept diagrams were considered incomplete, and one would not be considered as a talented individual in this realm. One would also have a lower chance of completing the transformation of their internal force.

As for cultivating techniques with six or more concept diagrams, this was the standard for those in the first stage of the warrior realm. Such techniques were suitable for all who had just broken through to the warrior realm to cultivate.

After recalling it once, Chen Yiming confirmed that he had memorized the content from the entire page.

Because he was extremely confident in his own strength, he immediately got the small figure in his mind to simulate the concept diagram of the Flying Feather Sword Technique.

Upon receiving the instruction, the figure gradually melted into drops of liquid that spread throughout the entire spiritual world, forming a picture of a rainstorm.

Next, Chen Yiming tried to deduce the other concept diagrams for the rainstorm.

The picture of the rainstorm shook. The size of the raindrops, the speed at which they fell, and the range of dispersion changed, turning into a new picture of the rainstorm.

However, just as the new rainstorm was about to stabilize, “Crack!”

The rainstorm picture formed by the spiritual figure suddenly collapsed, turning into drops of liquid that fell to the ground, causing his entire spiritual world to quake.

Chen Yiming felt as if he had received a heavy blow to the head. Fortunately, everything had happened with his eyes closed, so the other three people present didn’t notice anything amiss.

The Level-1 Undying Body talent made Chen Yiming extremely resistant to all kinds of attacks, so the dizziness had almost disappeared in just an instant.

“What a pity! I almost succeeded,” Chen Yiming thought to himself.

His Level-2 swordsmanship talent could allow him to easily complete the drawing of the concept diagram, but it was still a little short of being able to deduce other similar concept diagrams from one concept diagram.

The path of cultivation for the next stage was clearly laid out for Chen Yiming.

He was still a little short of deducing the similar concept diagrams from one concept diagram, but with two or three, the probability of deducing the other concept diagrams was almost 100%.

He had two choices. He could either search for a sword technique that had more than two concept diagrams, or accumulate Skill Points and upgrade to the Level-3 swordsmanship talent.

The difference between each level of talent was huge. For something that was very difficult to achieve for a Level-2 talent, with the Level-3 talent, it would be as easy as eating and drinking.

The speed at which the mind moved far exceeded that of the body. It seemed like he had thought about many questions, but in reality, only a few moments had passed in the outside world.

After Chen Yiming thought it through, he reopened his eyes and saw anxious expressions on the faces of the other three people.

This was especially true for Mo Yanfei. Even though she had married into the Yue clan, her surname was not Yue. In essence, she was still a member of the Mo clan. However, she had made the decision to hand over the foundation of the Yue clan, the manual for the Mountain Moving Fist Technique, to an outsider.

“I’ll return the manual to you.” With a quick hand movement from Chen Yiming, the manual flew into Yue Yangpeng’s hand.

Yue Yangpeng was stunned for a moment, then he heaved a sigh of relief. As long as the manual for the Mountain Moving Fist Technique was still around, the Yue clan would still have a chance to rise up again.

Although this hope was slim, it was better than falling into despair.

Having achieved his goal, Chen Yiming turned around and left, leaving the Yue clan members to watch his back as he left.

“Please wait a moment.”

Mo Yanfei called out and stopped the masked man who had walked a few meters away.

“What is it?” Chen Yiming was in a good mood as he turned to look at the woman.

Mo Yanfei’s heart skipped a beat. Her clothes were drenched in cold sweat and clung tightly to her body. Her figure was completely revealed to Chen Yiming.

“Are you interested in the other two concept diagrams of the Mountain Moving Fist Technique?” Mo Yanfei’s red lips parted slightly as she revealed a shocking piece of information.

Hearing this, Chen Yiming looked at Yue Jingtian and then at Yue Yangpeng.

Yue Jingtian looked confused, while Yue Yangpeng raised an eyebrow, then quickly retracted his shocked expression.

Chen Yiming started to doubt Mo Yanfei’s words. If the Yue clan really had two more concept diagrams, Yue Yangpeng’s shouldn’t have been willing to die rather than to hand over the manual.

When Mo Yanfei saw this, a smile appeared on her face. She continued, “The Yue clan of East Lake City moved over from the provincial city. In the eyes of the outside world, their descendants are no longer around.

In fact, the previous head of the Yue clan, who had already passed away, was severely injured in a dangerous place. He even lost the other two concept diagrams there.”

“I’m not interested,” Chen Yiming refused.

The Mountain Moving Fist was a fist technique, not a sword technique. Even if he gathered three concept diagrams of the fist technique, it would not be of much use to him. They could only be used as a reference.

His Level-2 swordsmanship talent was temporarily insufficient for him to infer a new sword technique from the concept diagrams.

With that, he turned to leave.

“Wait!” Mo Yanfei shouted anxiously. She chased after the masked man and used her body to stop him.

Chen Yiming was forced to stop in his tracks to prevent their bodies from colliding.

Even after gaining the Undying Body talent, he had not tempered his body with a focus on strength. Therefore, he was only slightly over 1.9 meters tall, and had a well-proportioned figure compared to those of the same level.

However, he was still a head taller than the 1.75-meter-tall woman.

The two of them were separated by a distance of more than 10 centimeters. Chen Yiming looked down at the woman in front of him and took in her beauty.

After all, he was a man who had worked for many years and was nearing his thirties in his previous life. It had only been a year since he transmigrated to this world. His 18-year-old body made his heart skip a beat.

Fortunately, his control over his body at the warrior realm allowed him to instantly stabilize himself and not let his opponent notice anything amiss.

“Even if one hasn’t achieved much in martial arts, they still have the ability to slow down aging,” Chen Yiming thought to himself.

If he had not seen with his own eyes that the beautiful woman in front of him had a son who was in his twenties, he would have thought about it from the perspective of his previous world. The beautiful woman was about 30 years old and was at the stage where she was no longer a youth and was becoming a mature woman.

This stage was the most attractive to mature men.

The corners of Mo Yanfei’s mouth curled up. In front of Yue Yangpeng, who was not far away, she continued, “Back then, that dangerous place not only severely injured the previous head of the Yue clan, but also caused the deaths of several people. Among the people who died, there were those who used sword techniques.”

Other people didn’t have Chen Yiming’s ability to use a small figure in his mind to enter the spiritual world. They had to repeatedly check the concept diagram during their daily cultivation, so they would carry the concept diagram with them.

“Why should I go to a dangerous place that even the Yue clan’s warriors don’t dare to go?” Chen Yiming rolled his eyes.

He did need to find a suitable sword technique, but there was no need to take such a big risk. If there was really no other way, he could still rely on his Level-3 swordsmanship talent.
