Sword and Love Volume 1 Chapter 34

Chapter 34 Another upgrade of martial strength (Part I)

The Lingyin sect located on the fertile Lingyin Island. It had always been self-sustaining. Occasionally, Lingyin disciples would cut trees, catch some animals or refine some medicines and equipment to sell for money to the outside world. In exchange, they would buy back some daily supplies.

In the blink of an eye, one month had passed. During the one month, Zheng Zinuo continued practicing every day. Except for raining days, he would get up early in the morning to practice the spirit detect eyes skills with his brothers. Then he matched down to the mountain foot to cut trees. Though his martial strength did not increase as fast as earlier, it had already upgraded to level 7. His martial spirit also turned into green blue, which was more powerful.

Feng Ziyan had become used to the power up of Zheng Zinuo's martial strength and his constantly color changing martial spirit. She no longer treated Zheng Zinuo as a dumb trainee but as a talented martial fighter.

One day, Zheng Zinuo was moving down the mountain with a tree sampling with Feng Ziyan. After continuous practice over the past month, he had mastered the pacing skill and the control of his martial strength. Now he could easily use his pacing skill while chatting with Feng Ziyan. His speed had also increased to an amazing level. There was no way for Feng Ziyan to get rid of Zheng Zinuo without calling out her martial spirit and her martial strength.

She also had sincere care over this little brother. Apart from teaching him martial skills and codes, she also helped him identify the meridians and mapping on human bodies.

Though she didn't teach Zheng Zinuo any high level martial skills, what she taught Zinuo was already more than he had imagined. Zheng Zinuo further figured out that the meridians and mappings on human bodies were of crucial importance in martial arts.

For example, combining spirit call-out codes and spirit movement codes to push his martial strength into the meridians would allow Zheng Zinuo to easily break a 10 centimeters wide stick. This was incredible for an eight-year-old boy.

"Little brother, you should no longer do such low levels of physical practice with your current level of martial strength." Feng Ziyan said. "I am thinking if teaching you the soul upgrading skill was a wrong move for you."

"How come, sister." Zheng Zinuo smiled and said, "But now cutting a little tree is no longer a challenge for me. So sister, what kind of physical practice did the master give you when you were at my level?"

"Well... "Feng Ziyan thought for a moment and said," In general, we usually spent our first three months practicing cutting trees of ten years old. Then after three months, depending on the progress, my father would let us cut bamboos of fifty years old. Then when we upgraded our martial strength to level 7, we could go to cut trees of eighty years old. After leveling up to Martial Shi, which is my current level, we would go cut trees of one hundred years old. Usually one no longer needs to cut trees after reach level 12. But my father required me to keep cutting trees until I reach level 15. Situation like yours was very rare. You upgraded your martial strength by seven levels in merely one month. You should be cutting trees of eighty years old. But since I have taught you martial codes, I don't dare to report your condition to my father."

"It doesn't matter sister. I can cut off the trees of ten years old and then go to cut trees of eighty years old." Zheng Zinuo said, "I am just afraid that if I did so, master would find it out."

"Well, this is not something you can't do." Feng Ziyan said, "Trees of eighty years old usually grow at a faraway place near the forest. You can hide the trees you cut in that forest. You just need to plant two tree samplings every day to make up for the other tree you cut off."

"Well, you are right." Zheng Zinuo was delighted. Over the past month, he almost spent every day with Feng Ziyan and became very close to her. Feng Ziyan was like a little princess, being pampered by her parents and big brothers. But her big brothers were much older than her. So she didn't really have any friends of her age until Zheng Zinuo joined the sect. Now they became close friends.

"But... "Feng Ziyan, "The forest is very dangerous. There would be some warcaft coming out form the forest attacking people. I think you should be very careful. At your level, you can't resist the attack by Warcraft."

"That's all right. I'll be careful." Zheng Zinuo replied undaunted. In his mind, human beings were much more powerful than Warcraft. He had never seen a real Warcraft and didn't know how scary they were.

They two talked and walked to the foot of the mountain. Like other days, each of them said goodbye and went to their own trees.
