THE MARTIAL GOD

Chapter 5: The Sword

Ten thousand miles separated Yang Zhou City from the Yun Hai sect, although Lin Feng could travel a thousand miles a day, it still took Lin Feng ten days to arrive.

However, during these ten days, Lin Feng had wasted no time. In his previous life, Lin Feng had never been hot-blooded, He had never experienced such a feeling of spirit. Unknowingly, his state of mind had improved greatly. Walking on the path of cultivation now allowed him to reach the seventh Qi layer. "Where water flows, a canal is formed" as the saying goes. Moreover, practicing had allowed him to master the Nine Heavy Waves martial art technique to a whole new level.

These days, Lin Feng had much stronger physical strength than in his previous life. His actual strength was actually close to 8500 jin which was extremely strong for the cultivation of the seventh Qi Layer.

The Yun Hai Sect was located on a mountain chain called Yun Hai Hill. The Yun Hai Hill was actually not the largest mountain in that mountain chain, but it covered an area so vast that it was easily visible from the distant sky. Yun Hai Hill even looked like a city when viewed from the sky. It was surrounded by eight mountains which, unlike the Yun Hai Hill, seemed to rise into the sky as if grabbing the sky. The mystical beauty of this mountain owes to Feng Shui, it provides great luck and destiny.

As he moved closer.

"Stop! Get off that horse! '' Said the two mountain guards quite coldly while giving Lin Feng a mocking smile. These two guards were also Yun Hai sect disciples.

Lin Feng looked at them in a disdainful manner. Meanwhile, another disciple riding a horse passed by and continued towards the mountain. Lin Feng pointed at him: "why didn't you prevent him from entering?"

"Hmph", one of them smiled expressing scorn and anger. "how can you compare yourself to a normal disciple? You almost got killed before, you trash ”.

"So it's just a matter of power and status". Lin Feng smiled. These mountain guards, even though they belonged to the Yun Hai sect, were only there for decoration. Their levels are very weak. However, if one wanted to enter, they would have to pass through the mountain guards. Although their work was not that important, they had the power to prevent people from entering. A strong disciple like the one who had previously rode did not have to tell them anything.

"The weak should be intimidated and humiliated" said Lin Feng with a cynical smile. He didn't get off the horse's back, he just pulled the reins.

"How dare you, you piece of trash", shouted the two guards at the same time. Lin Feng raised his fist and punched the air creating two shock waves that hit the guards. Suddenly a very powerful air blast hit them so hard that it dropped them back.

"If this happens again, I will cripple you", Lin Feng rushed over. Only those who are strong have the possibility to express themselves. The two guards tried to get back up, panting and wiping the blood from the corner of their lips. They saw Lin Feng was already far away and it made their anger boil from within. A piece of trash was still stronger than them, no wonder they were only suitable to be mountain guards.

In the Yun Hai sect, if a 15-16 year old teenager had reached the sixth or seventh layer on the cultivation path, their talent was defined as average. Those who had reached the eighth layer were considered outstanding geniuses. Everyone in the Yun Hai sect would show admiration to them. As for the 15-16 year olds who reached the Ling Qi layer, their strength would be recognized throughout the entire Xue Yue country.

Unlike these geniuses, if a 15 year old child did not make any progress in the Qi layer, they would be looked down upon by others. Lin Feng's level was so low that others called him "a piece of trash". He was bullied by others and they all considered him a worthless piece of trash.

The fact that Lin Feng had returned to the Yun Hai sect spread very quickly among the sect disciples. Lin Feng, the piece of trash, was famous in the Yun Hai sect. Lin Feng, while walking within the territory of the sect was paying attention to the people who were staring at him, they all had different expressions on their faces. He turned a deaf ear to what happened. Moving forward within the Yun Hai sect, he walked in the Xing Chen Pavilion.

Xing Chen Pavilion was a place within the Yun Hai sect where disciples were given various martial cultivation techniques and martial skills. Every day, many disciples would go to Xing Chen Pavilion to train. That day was no exception and the Pavilion was filled with disciples.

Suddenly,

"Lin Feng",

Lin Feng stopped walking when he heard a voice. He looked around him and shortly afterwards noticed a teenager whose face looked quite cold.

"You're quite tenacious, it looks like you're not dead yet". That teenager was Lin Heng. He was the culprit who tried to kill Lin Feng the last time they met each other, Lin Hao Ran's eldest son.

Lin Feng gave him a glance and smiled mockingly. Lin Heng had only reached the eighth Qi layer while Lin Feng was at the seventh Qi layer but had also mastered the Nine Heavy Waves technique, he was not inferior to Lin Heng at all. Lin Feng just had to learn and practice one or two more skills and he would definitely be able to defeat Lin Heng.

Lin Feng ignored Lin Heng and immediately entered the Xing Chen Pavilion. Improve his skills and strength first, then take revenge.

"Other times, I will definitely kill you and send you home to your father for burial" said Lin Heng angrily seeing Lin Feng ignore him. Lin Heng's eyes were like sharp daggers as he stared at Lin Feng.

In front of Xing Chen Pavilion, there was an old man sitting. The old man stared in a daze at the horizon.

"Older", Lin Feng bowed to greet the old man. He was the only one protecting the pavilion. Xing Chen Pavilion was a very important place, but the old man guarding it didn't look like he was important. It reminded Lin Feng of the film he had watched in his previous life. It depicts a powerful old monk in a Shaolin temple who only cleans the floor like a servant. Lin Feng thought the scene was very deep and immeasurable, enigmatic and impossible to comprehend completely. As someone who has been given a second life, he is able to understand the meaning of the action.

The old man's expression suddenly changed and he started to notice. He was quite surprised to see Lin Feng admit it. A while later, he began to nod his head stating how shocked he was. "seventh layer Qi, you can only choose and practice the skills introduced on the first floor, at most two skills".

The resources available on the first floor were all yellow level skills and methods. However, there are a large number of them. Thus it is possible to find the most suitable skills and methods for yourself. They were the basic skills and methods of the Yun Hai sect. Everything was better than any skill that could be found in the Lin family.

What Lin Feng needed the most right now was a skill so he started searching for books on the skill bookshelf.

"Seven-Tyrant Fist, One Tyrannical Fist – Seven deadly attacks, a skill suitable for those with martial spirits".

"Girlstorm, Turn the air itself into a weapon and launch a few blades of wind, a skill suitable for people with aerial spirits".

"Rampaging Ox, a top grade yellow martial arts skill, a skill suitable for spirit beasts".

Lin Feng browsed through all of these books quickly flipping the pages and then placed them back onto the shelf. He has a dark spirit. He was able to strengthen all of the skills that his comprehension ability might also be quite high. Basically, there is absolutely no limit when it comes to learning a new skill. He could learn and practice them all, which was one of the advantages of having a dark spirit. However he was still unable to find the skill he wanted.

"The wind sword is cool, Fast and skillful, using this skill should be done with natural elegance and elegance, suitable for people who have sword spirit".

Lin Feng's facial expression changed and he suddenly stared at this book. He hoped to carry a sword and travel all over the country helping the needy and shedding the blood of those with evil intentions. He was filled with gratitude for the second chance and thirst for vengeance. Unable to describe her feelings, she felt quite happy but she still had the impression that it was not a skill she needed or really wanted.

"The skill of unsheathing a sword, unsheathing a sword is a killing skill with high speed, one-punch quick killing, suitable for people who have sword spirits".

"The sword unsheathed", Lin Feng stopped moving, it seemed that the use of the sword was different from other swords. Traditionally, what the swordsmen disliked was the moment of unsheathing the sword because it was a critical moment where a certain amount of time was lost and thus delayed the moment when an attack could be carried out. Nevertheless, wielding a sword was a skill made to kill people. Wielding the sword had killed for its sole purpose. The most powerful moment of the skill was to unsheathed the sword and attack with a single move, if you missed one, you could only consider yourself defeated.

Moreover, the unsheathed sword was not the same as the other skills. It was just one level, one movement. Sucking out swords, killing people is the ultimate achievement, one quick move and a sword raining down on the blood of your enemies.

"I chose it", Lin Feng picked up the book "unsheathing sword" and then prepared to choose a body movement technique. After all, he had to make sure he could kill in one strike at a time. If defeated, the only solution, assuming, you can run fast enough is to escape, jump on the roof, jump over the wall, jump over the wall, also something that could be useful but it is something that everyone dreams of, right?

Lin Feng then chose another book called Moonlight Feather which was an agility technique. Anyone who could master this skill could become so powerful that no one would see it. In fact, no one will see anything but your shadow and their own death. Gathering the books together, Lin Feng went to the old man to check on him.

“The unsheathed sword”, whispered the old man, and continued, “Young man, the unsheathed sword. Nonetheless, you need to know that if someone has unsheathed their sword and you still have not unsheathed your sword, if your speed is slower than your opponent, the result is obvious, you will be destroyed. One can say that this skill is very powerful but it requires a high level of achievement, you have to be faster than any opponent and only then, you have to be faster, you will be able to kill them in one hit ”.

"I understand", Lin Feng knew that the elder was showing kindness to make him aware of his weakness. If one was too slow to unsheathe their sword, then killing in one strike was impossible and that meant putting himself in a critical and dangerous situation.

“You clearly understand the implications, then that's a good thing. If you can't successfully kill in one hit, Moonlight Feather is an excellent movement skill to escape ”. The old man stopped talking and checked Lin Feng's books. Furthermore, the books borrowed from Xing Chen Pavilion had to be returned within a month. Borrowing them for over a month would affect the training of the other Yun Hai sect members because they would not be able to borrow them either.

"Thank you, Elder, thank you for guiding me", Lin Feng picked up the books and politely thanked the old man.

"Hm", the old man smiled as he nodded his head and handed him a flexible sword, "you can use this sword as a belt since it is so soft, this sword is of no use here, it is useless here, you can pick it up and have fun ”

Before Lin Feng could say thank you, though,

“Do not say that, no need to thank me many times. Go and train yourself! '' The old man noticed that Lin Feng wanted to thank him again and waved at him.

Lin Feng scratched his head not knowing what to say. He looked at the sword closer.

The unsheathed sword combined with wearing a sword as a belt would allow you to attack someone surprisingly and kill them with one swift move.

Lin Feng nodded, smiled at the old man and then left.

"It's been a long time since I've seen such an attractive young man" the old man whispered to himself. Immediately after, the old man returned to his initial position staring at the horizon seemingly deep in thought.

Young people care about his training to increase their actual strength, but more and more do so impulsively while forgetting and neglecting the traditional foundations of martial skills.
