Knock! Knock! Knock!
Co in!
As Zheng-Fu thought about various matters, a knock sounded at his room door. He used psychic senses to investigate first and then let that person in.
Creak!!!
"Elder Master Zheng-Fu, am I bothering you?"
As the door opened, Lin-Nie greeted him and asked worriedly.
"No, I'm free, not doing anything!" Zheng-Fu replied, turning to look at the young woman. He stood up and asked curiously, "Did you co to for sothing urgent? Or has sothing happened to the Lin Clan?"
"Not at all! There's nothing wrong with the Lin Clan!" The young woman imdiately answered and waved her hand to deny Zheng-Fu's question. Before she lowered her head slightly and continued, "I ca to you because I wanted you to give so advice about martial arts. Erm… would that be all right?" Lin-Nie saw that Zheng-Fu was the sa age as her, but he was very strong, so she wanted to ask for his advice. Also, she would like to be close to Zheng-Fu.
Oh!
"Yes, it'd be all right! No problem at all. Then you try performing the skill movents first. Or bring the skill treatise that you're cultivating. Maybe I can help you a bit. But I can't guarantee that I can solve your stuck problem!" Zheng-Fu was slightly stunned when he heard that. But soon he returned to normal and answered her.
"All right! This is the Forge-the-Heart Saber Skill treatise. It's our Lin Clan regular skill. You can check it out. After that, I'll perform my skill movents for you to see!" Lin-Nie was overjoyed to see that Zheng-Fu had accepted her request. She hurriedly took out a treatise book and handed it to Zheng-Fu.
Forge-the-Heart Saber Skill?
Umm!
Zheng-Fu read the na on the cover of the treatise book and imdiately opened it and looked at the first page without hesitation. And with Zheng-Fu's ability to read and rember very well, it did not take him long to read the Forge-the-Heart Saber Skill treatise page by page until it was all finished.
Zheng-Fu imdiately knew that the Forge-the-Heart Saber Skill was an initial Deity Soul Skill but had a destruction power comparable to an interdiate Deity Soul Skill. And that skill had three steps in total.
[First step - Basics of the saber; This does not an the general basics that a cultivator must know in using the saber, such as stabbing, slashing, flicking, or blocking. But it refers to the basics of the skill that the cultivator must be able to move and use the saber with great speed and precision. But of course, it must co with expertise.]
[Second step - Heart of the saber; Once the cultivators have mastered the basics of the saber, they must cultivate it to understand the mind of the saber in his hand. And they must make it a part of themselves. It is as if the saber is an organ of their body.]
[Last step - Saber and man beco one; At this stage, even if there is no saber at hand, the cultivator must be able to use various organs of the body as a saber. Or even any item can be picked up and used as a saber.]
After finishing reading, Zheng-Fu saw quite a few defects in the skill. And he thought that if he modified those defects, that Forge-the-Heart Saber Skill would be able to evolve into an advanced Deity Soul Skill. But first, he had to watch Lin-Nie perform its movents.
Flop!
"This is a good skill. All right, now, please perform Forge-the-Heart Saber Skill movents for to see."
Umm!
Flap! Flop! Flap!
.
.
.
It's over!
It wasn't long before Lin-Nie finished performing her Forge-the-Heart Saber Skill movents. Her gesture looked very good from the first movent. But when Zheng-Fu observed carefully, he saw many defects. And from his consideration, Lin-Nie had only succeeded in the first step. Because she still did not understand the heart of the saber. And she could not make her movents flow smoothly and beco one with the saber.
Umm!
"According to my estimation, you could only succeed in the first step of this skill, right? And no matter how hard you try, you can't reach the second step, is that right?" Zheng-Fu already understood and knew Lin-Nie's defects. But he was not hurrying to advise her; he asked her first.
"Yes! I tried cultivating the second step. But no matter how I cultivated it, I could never reach the heart of the saber. It's as if sothing is stuck and I cannot overco it!" Lin-Nie answered honestly. She tried to overco every obstacle but could not make it through. anwhile, others with abilities similar to hers could all reach the second step without any problems.
"First of all, I have to tell you that your form is already fine. It should be easy to reach the second step. But you cannot go to the second step because your mind is not with you. You're still worried and concerned about so things. If you can break that concern, you'll imdiately advance to the second step of the Forge-the-Heart Saber Skill. So, think about what you're always worried about. And what must you do to get that concern out of your mind?!"
Before talking about the defects of the skill, Zheng-Fu first talked about the defects in the young woman's cultivation. It was related to her feelings and mind. What made her unable to overco was not because of her talent or the wrong way of cultivating. But it was because she could not calm down and feel the saber's heart.
Ah!
Hearing what Zheng-Fu said, Lin-Nie's expression suddenly beca sad. Because she instantly understood why she was still at the first step and could not advance to the second step, no matter how hard she tried.
"I'm always thinking about Father and am worried about Mother's health. Ever since Father passed away, Mother hasn't seed happy at all. So, my only concern is about Mother!" Lin-Nie said in a sad and weak voice. She had never been afraid of anything except that she would lose her mother. She tried everything to make her mother happy. So, that was her constant concern.
"Now you know who killed your father. And those people had all been punished. After this, you and your mother should have no problems within the clan. So, you should be relieved now. Besides, if you wanted to be able to protect your mother, you had to be even stronger. Because only strength can protect the people you love!"
Zheng-Fu understood that feeling well. The feeling of not being able to protect the people he loved and having to constantly be suspicious and worried about those people. But because he was lucky and received a lot of fortune and treasure, he was able to overco those obstacles and turned them into a commitnt to continue improving himself.
Umm!
"I understood."
Boom!
As soon as Lin-Nie heard Zheng-Fu's words, she imdiately felt a change within her body. She felt the saber in her hand. It was as if it were a part of her. No matter how she wielded the saber, she no longer felt any hindrance.
"Elder Master, I..."
"Try performing your movents again!" Zheng-Fu interrupted her with a gentle smile. Before he had Lin-Nie perform her Forge-the-Heart Saber Skill once more,
Yes, sir!
Flap! Flop! Flap!
.
.
.
Booooom!!!
Lin-Nie began to perform her Forge-the-Heart Saber Skill movents again. The result was that her moves were more fluid than before. Moreover, the aura and radiation that the saber emitted also beca denser and stronger. It could be said that she had already achieved the second step, the Heart of the Saber, of the Forge-the-Heart Saber Skill. Moreover, her final stance also caused the wall of Zheng-Fu's room to have a large hole because of the energy wave that radiated out.
Suc... suc... success!
Lin-Nie was very delighted and excited. She never thought she would be able to succeed. If she had not t Zheng-Fu today and had not asked him for guidance, she would still be at the first step of skill. And because of that, she felt even more respect and admiration for Zheng-Fu. Or probably, it was even a liking.
"Thank... thank you so much, Elder Master!"
"My pleasure! But… my room has a hole. I probably won't be able to sleep like this!" Zheng-Fu smiled and replied to Lin-Nie. Before he pointed at the large hole that Lin-Nie had created.
Hah!
"Is that my act? Oh! I apologize to Elder Master. I didn't an to. I would…"
Thump! Thump! Thump!
"What happened? Are the enemies invading?!"
Suddenly, several figures soared to a stop in front of Zheng-Fu's room. The person who took the lead was Clan Leader Lin-Jun, followed by many elders and masters in the clan. And they ca there because of the sound of the explosion. Plus, the location of the incident was Zheng-Fu's room, so Lin-Jun and the others rushed over imdiately.
"Lin-Nie?! Younger Brother Zheng-Fu?!"
When Lin-Jun saw that the two were together and Lin-Nie was holding a saber in her hand, he frowned in shock and fear. He was afraid that Lin-Nie would do sothing bad. If that happened, his Lin Clan would definitely fall into chaos.
"Don't worry, Big Brother Jun! Lin-Nie didn't do anything to . She just ca to consult and ask for advice from . As for that hole, it was just a minor accident from her skill performance!" Zheng-Fu knew what Lin-Jun was thinking and hurriedly explained to prevent the situation from escalating further.
Asking for advice!?
An accident from her skill performance!?
When everyone heard Zheng-Fu's explanation, they found it hard to believe. Especially regarding the large hole that appeared due to the skill performance. Because they knew that skill performances did not have such destructive power. They were just ant for showing. So, why did sothing like that happen?
"Erm… then I'll order the servants to arrange a new room for Younger Brother," Lin-Jun said with a dazed expression. He still could not believe it. But since it was Zheng-Fu's words, he had to believe it.
"Thank you very much, Big Brother Jun! And I have sothing I want to give you!"
Hah!
"Sothing you want to give ?!"
Zheng-Fu did not answer Lin-Jun, and simply took out a paintbrush and ink from his dinsional ring and quickly began to write sothing in the skill treatise that Lin-Nie had handed him.
"Isn't that the Forge-the-Heart Saber Skill treatise?"
"That's it! So, what is he writing? Or is this what he wants to give?"
Many people could not help but wonder because Zheng-Fu was writing sothing in a copy of the Forge-the-Heart Saber Skill treatise, and they could not see it. So, they looked very curious.
Flop!
Completed!
"Here, Big Brother Jun, take it! I have modified it completely." Once Zheng-Fu modified and refined the Forge-the-Heart Saber Skill and removed all the defects, he handed it to Lin-Jun with a smile.
Ah!
Blop!
Lin-Jun was still in a daze. However, he took the skill treatise from Zheng-Fu and opened it to read. And after he read a few pages, his eyes widened and his mouth opened wide enough to fit a chicken egg.
This… this is…
