Chapter 62 - Preparation



Chen Yiming didn’t stay in the hospital for long and returned home after a short while.

After entering the house, he briefly told Father Chen and Mother Chen about Chen Shaojie’s situation before returning to his room. He locked the door and took out the book he had gotten from Han Fei.

Along the way, he kept recalling the process of launching a sneak attack on Han Fei. He realized that Han Fei had used an ability

Although there was a huge difference in their abilities, just like the difference between a knife and a piece of paper, a rock could be used to polish a jade. He might be able to obtain some unexpected information from the book.

Chen Yiming placed the book on the table and started reading from the first page.

On the first page was a drawing of a fierce tiger. The drawing was exceptionally well-done, with the expression of the tiger coming through from the drawing.

He focused completely on the drawing, and gradually, only the tiger head was left in his line of sight.

The tiger head suddenly felt like it had come to life. A fiendish aura poured out towards him, and the ability of the Heart Sword automatically slashed at this fiendish aura.

In the blink of an eye, Chen Yiming snapped out of his daze.

“It’s amazing,” Chen Yiming muttered.

This painting was definitely not made from just one’s drawing skills. There must be some secret that no one knew about, and the aura

Chen Yiming flipped to the next page.

On the second page, a black snake was drawn. Similar to the tiger on the previous page, the black snake looked like it was about to launch a sneak attack.

Soon, the sinister aura emitted by the black snake was also cut through by the Heart Sword.

Next, from page three to page thirteen, he continuously used the Heart Sword 13 times in a row.

“My Heart Sword Technique has improved a little.” Chen Yiming closed his eyes and reviewed it carefully.

The improvement was very slight, so slight that it was basically impossible to quantify. He could only vaguely sense it.

“What secrets are hidden in these drawings, such that they can temper the Heart Sword?” Chen Yiming wondered to himself as he flipped to the drawing of the tiger again.

At this moment, the tiger head had already lost its ferocious aura, and it had become completely ordinary, no different from an ordinary drawing.

A few minutes passed.

Chen Yiming stared intently at the tiger.

Suddenly, a fiendish aura that was so weak that it was almost undetectable reappeared. The tiger head that had looked ordinary moments ago suddenly became a little more lively.

“So it can automatically recover.” Chen Yiming suddenly had a realization. “The book was probably a tool that Han Fei was using to train his special ability.”

Being able to recover meant that it could be used to continuously enhance the ability of the Heart Sword.

After Chen Yiming unearthed the secret hidden in the book, he suddenly became interested in Professor Fu’s laboratory. It was highly possible that there was a similar book in there.

In the library in the Mantis Snake Sword School headquarters, the bookshelves were filled with all kinds of martial arts techniques.

Fist techniques, palm techniques, movement techniques, and most of all, sword techniques.

Chen Yiming skipped over the other martial arts techniques and flipped through each book introducing the different sword techniques.

Every time he increased his swordsmanship talent by one level, the Skill Points he needed would increase exponentially. There was no need for him to waste his time on martial arts other than swordsmanship.

Flowing Cloud Sword Technique, Clear Wind Sword Technique, Cross-slash Sword Technique, Thirteen Moves Deadly Sword Technique, Mountain Moving Sword Technique…

The Clear Wind Sword Technique was a sword technique similar to Qinggong. Every move and stance was like the wind, moving about freely.

The Cross-slash Sword Technique was a sword technique that increased one’s cutting power. After mastering it, it could greatly increase the lethality of one’s attack.

The Thirteen Moves Deadly Sword Technique was a sword technique that paid attention to the rhythm of the moves. When one attacked, he would strike again before the first move ended, causing his opponent to be completely unable to defend against him.

These sword techniques had been collected and passed down by generations of seniors in the Mantis Snake Sword School. They were all top-notch sword techniques in the disciple realm, and could be cultivated beyond the sixth transformation.

Chen Yiming’s eyes lit up. If only it was free.

Once he mastered enough different types of swordsmanship, he would be able to completely seal off his enemies’ attacks. In the disciple realm, he could not think of anyone who would be able to defeat him.

“I’ve only saved a little more than 10 million yuan over the past half a year. At most, I can buy one sword technique,” Chen Yiming sighed.

It was as if he had found a treasure chest, but did not have the key. It was a terrible feeling.

Before long, Chen Yiming took a sword technique book from the bookshelf and headed to where Granny Wei was seated to register and pay the fee. He then collected the book on the actual technique.

The sword technique he had chosen was

which had cost him exactly 10 million yuan.

This sword technique did not increase the conventional attributes like lethality, speed or strength. It focused instead on one’s judgment. There were many types of moves and they were all rather complicated, borrowing from various techniques to effectively deflect and defend from attacks.

He did not mind that there was a large variety of moves. In any case, he could learn each of them just by watching them once, so it suited him just fine.

Soon, the actual book was brought to him.

The books on martial arts techniques could not be brought out of the library or copied. One would have five chances to peruse the book after purchasing it.

Typically, five times were completely sufficient. If one was not able to learn it after five tries, it meant that he was either too untalented or that the sword technique was not suitable for him.

Chen Yiming found a random spot and started to read about the Forward Reverse Sword Technique.

The actual book was very thick, and it contained a complete set of pictures detailing the sword technique. There were notes beside each picture providing some explanation, making it easier for the reader to understand.

It did not take him long to learn this sword technique, and he quickly left.

In the evening, Chen Yiming went to a private restaurant.

As soon as he entered, he saw Wang Jianyan waiting for him.

Chen Yiming sat down and asked, “Senior Wang, why are you looking for me?”

“There’s no hurry. Let’s talk while we eat,” Wang Jianyan replied as he called for the waiter to serve the food.

Soon, the kitchen served the food they had prepared. There were a total of four meat dishes and three vegetable dishes.

“In two days, the company has a transport mission. I’m in charge of leading the team. I wonder if you would like to join,” Wang Jianyan said.

The core disciples sent by the school had a lot of freedom and could decide whether to join at any time.

Other than completing the monthly transport tasks, the main job of the three team leaders in the Anteng Transportation Company was to help the core disciples gain experience in the wilderness.

“So soon? That’s great. I was just thinking that I don’t have anything to do,” Chen Yiming replied.

What he said was completely true. After breaking through to the sixth transformation, he had long since intended to go to the wilderness.

The city might be chaotic for ordinary people, but for him, who had undergone six transformations, it was a sea of calm.

Experts above the sixth transformation were either at the front line or active in the wilderness.

Most of the people who were still in the city were people from the older generation who no longer had a chance to continue breaking through. Since the older generation did not provoke him, he could not possibly attack them for no reason.

“What I suggested last time was to master a defensive sword technique first. How’s your preparation going?” Wang Jianyan asked again.

When faced with a group of mutant beasts, it was completely different from fighting one-on-one. By using only offensive sword techniques, it was often very easy to fall into dangerous situations, and the Mantis Snake Sword Technique was completely an offensive sword technique.

If anything happened to a core disciple under his watch, the higher-ups would hold him responsible. Although he had undergone six transformations and his level was higher than Chen Yiming’s on the surface, one was a core disciple and the other was a member of an external faction. The status of an external faction member was always much lower than that of a core disciple.
