2024-10-29 19:42:56‘I am impatient to leave this forest and enter Jianghu. I could not care less about who else in the mountain. All I care about right now is accumulating points!’ he grumbles under his breath.
He of course had the idea of searching that person who attacked him from behind.
But thinking about it again, why does he have to do it?
His objective after all is not to seek that person.
Of course, he could probably get a quest if he began searching for that person but if he comes down the mountain and interact with the people in Jianghu, he would also get quest.
And probably it is less dangerous. Li Xin is not a coward. After all, with his skill, he also had confidence.
But, is it worth his time?
As long as that person did not attack him or hinder him, Li Xin do not have the time. And was there any need to create enmity
‘Wait a minute?’ That person already created enmity with him by throwing that needle. But then Li Xin only shakes his head
That person is lucky that Li Xin have many things to do instead pursuing this matter.
Now, he truly feels anxious about having more quest point. Of course if he really desperate for points he would at least try to investigate that person.
This mountain while not the biggest mountain in Henan, is also big enough that it would make it hard for him to comb the entire mountain, just for seeking one person
But Li Xin could always search nearby places. After all, he deduces that the person who attacked him might be close to the area around here.
Of course, this is just his deduction.
He believes that if he investigated this matter, the system would probably issue a quest.
But, that’s the thing.
He simply doesn’t have the time.
He also had the expectation that if he did chase after that person, he would probably get drawn into something complicated like an overarching arc of stories
After all, isn’t that how the clichés go. The protagonist is drawn into a small conflict that eventually became larger.
But unfortunately, right now, Li Xin has his own plans and he did not want to be dragged into something big at the beginning.
He might have the system but he is not yet invincible.
He sighed and then he checks the status window for the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm
[Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm]
In another world, it is the fearsome martial art of an organization called the Beggars Sect. Hailed as the most physically aggressive technique in Wulin, all eighteen strokes were named after phases from the I’Ching, with all names containing the character for dragon. The history of this skill it first had twenty-eight palm technique but it was later modified to become Eighteen.
this technique is the single most powerful external style martial art in the world, being unmatched in its ferocity, meticulousness, and sheer power.

Out of eighteen stroke, he had master six of them.
‘That’s enough I think. Guo Jing only mastered one in the beginning and he could fight with a lot of people with only one stroke. I mastered six in a day. I think that is more than enough to survive for now’ he thought to himself
After all, it is not like he had great enemies chasing him. He can afford taking it easy
Guo Jing in that story learn the Proud Dragon Repents. But Li Xin would save it for later.
Li Xin then suddenly thought of something
‘It is better if I try it for myself to see if it is really as powerful as it is hyped about’ he thought to himself.
And he began executing all the strokes.
He did not use his inner energy but even as he moves on the yard, his feet moving according to the flow of his movement, the dry leaves around him is stirred and the ground beneath his feet seems to tremble.
Even without using inner energy, the force that is accumulated with each momentum of the stroke accumulated and when he thrust his palm forward, the sound of the wind become shrills and the area around him seems to be affected, the wind is like a wave on the stormy ocean, following the palm.
He strikes one palm forward, one palm backward, he moves freely and then the move slowly become soft as Li Xin is about to end his training.
Like a raging dragon went back to its nest and laid down its head and once again sleeping. The momentum of his move slowly dissipated.
Li Xin then stopped and smiles.
His entire body is soaked with his sweat and his hand and feet is trembling but he is smiling happily.
Even though some of the strokes is only in Beginner rank and he did not master it, he could use all the strokes.
Only it would look awkward. After all, the six strokes are mastered while the other is not. This causes the force look unbalanced if LI Xin uses all eighteen strokes
‘I should only use six. Even though it would become predictable if I keep using this six stroke, it did not matter. Because even if it is predictable, as long as one could not stop it, what’ s the use of knowing the pattern?’
Then he chuckles.
He actually had more skills that he wanted to buy and more skills he wanted to polish but he decided this is enough for today
he is already experiencing all kinds of headache and he could feel that if he pushes himself further, he might even faint.
Then he thought to himself
‘I still did not patrol the mountain today’
And he is now smelly.
‘I should take a bath before that’ Li Xin really hates it when he is sweaty and sticky with sweat. Most of the time, he rarely sweats because it is hard to force him to go all out in his stamina. But supreme skill is truly different.
Usually it would take him hours in practicing his swordplay to get him to sweat.
There is the breath exercise and there is his strong body but a supreme skill had made him almost lost his breathe after practicing the skill in not even half an hour.
But before he goes to bathe himself once again, he opens his status window.
The status window popped up in front of his face.

Li Xin look at in and he nodded satisfied with what he is seeing.
‘I guess this is good enough for now. There is room for improvement’ he mutters. There are some things that he regretted.
He regrets that he did not have more skill points. He is probably the poorest protagonist ever. Most protagonist got one billion points of luck when they first transmigrated or get invincible domain, but he had to fight for every point
Of course, those stories are just stories he had read in the past and he should not really think of that as a template for a protagonist.
‘But, even this kind of transmigration thing could happen. Who’s to say those thing did not happen’
He sighed and then thought to himself that it is better not to think too much about it
‘I should take a bath first and then patrol the mountain’ he thought to himself.

This sigh is because he once felt such feeling.Even though it is now hazy, Li Xin remembers that when he active the One Sword technique, there is that feeling that everywhere his sword pointed, the surrounding area is under his control.None of the sword of the enemy could touch him and none of their attack could even reach himIn that moment, he is the sword and wherever he pointed is the area of death.Everyone is waiting for Dugu Qingfeng to make his move.Everyone is paying attention because those who came here who have deep attainment in martial arts know that a battle between masters does not take so long.When they strike, they have the confidence to win in that one strike. If this is sparring, they might trade a few swings here and there but this is a battle of life and deathIf they could end it with one strike, why not?This is the reason why battle between masters sometimes is boring.When they are evenly matched, they will exchange moves and flashy moves and fancy techniq

Wu Ming and Dugu Qingfeng look at each other. Even though the distance between them is ten feet away from each other, it was like they are in front of each other, only inches apart ‘Hero Li who do you think would win?’ Zhang Kuo asked.
