Chapter 223 - 223: 191: Leaving for Deep Mountain Seclusion
Shen Ziming seemed disappointed.
In his understanding, the people of the Yihe Gate were absolutely trustworthy.
Staying here, Chen Sheng would at least be somewhat safe.
Unfortunately,
Chen Sheng had made up his mind. Shen Ziming could only agree.
“Alright then. ”
“If something happens, you can contact me anytime.”
Nevertheless, he was still somewhat worried and repeatedly reminded Chen Sheng to be cautious and safe.
“Don’t worry, 1 Know.”
Chen Sheng smiled and patted Shen Ziming on the shoulder.
Then, he turned his gaze to Zhang Yu.
“Brother Zhang, I have one more request for the Yihe Gate.”
“I hope that in the news outside, both I and the other two people from the
Eagle Body Sect are living inside the Yihe Gate.” “That’s simple.”
Zhang Yu waved his hand and smiled casually. “Even if you hadn’t said anything, we would have done it.’ “We can’t say you’re wandering around alone, right?”
“That would just give the Power Sect’s bastards something to do.”
Seeing this,
Chen Sheng finally felt at ease.
“Thank you, Brother Zhang.”
He bowed respectfully to express his gratitude. “No need to be so polite, just call me Ah Yu.”
“Alright, Brother Zhang.”
During their conversation, the three of them arrived at the villa on the mountainside.
“Since today’s party didn’t happen, I guess I’ll have to give the money back to people.”
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back.”
Zhang Yu waved goodbye to the two of them and went straight into the villa.
“Chen Sheng, what are you going to do next…” As he watched Zhang Yu’s figure disappear into the villa,
Chen Sheng took out his phone from his pocket.
Seeing his phone filled with messages and missed calls, his face flashed with an odd expression.
Shen Ziming asked from the side. “Old Zhou should be on his way to the airport.”
“It’s nothing, I’ll be off first.”
“Please take care of them later.”
Chen Sheng put his phone back in his pocket and turned to leave.
“As for what’s next, I’ll find a place to hide.”
“Don’t worry about my safety.” He waved at Shen Ziming.
Without waiting for a response, With a whoosh, his figure disappeared on the spot. “Sigh…”
Shen Ziming let out a deep sigh.
He felt full of guilt.
Although Chen Sheng seemed to not care,
Shen Ziming knew very well.
If it weren’t for himself, Chen Sheng wouldn’t have to be in such a situation of hiding and evading.
Adding to the fact that Chen Sheng had saved him from danger twice,
Shen Ziming felt more and more indebted to Chen Sheng, almost impossible to repay.
At least… help him as much as possible in the areas he could.
With these thoughts,
Shen Ziming took out his phone and dialed Old Zhou’s number.
“Hello, Old Zhou…”
That day, in the afternoon.
On the outskirts of Kyoto.
Nameless Mountain.
“This place looks nice.”
Standing on the mountain top with bags of items, Chen Sheng looked around at the rolling mountains and winding rivers with satisfaction. At the foot of the mountain, there were scattered houses.
And neatly arranged farmland.
Everything was in view.
This place was about a hundred kilometers away from the urban area of Kyoto.
For ordinary people, it was like another city.
But for Chen Sheng, going back and forth was just a matter of eating a meal.
Here,
There were no sect bases in the surrounding area of Kyoto.
Moreover, because there was a village nearby, Chen Sheng’s phone would not be out of signal.
The small grocery store in the village also made it convenient for him to buy daily necessities, without having to get everything from the mountains.
Considering all factors,
This place was the most suitable for Chen Sheng to hide and focus on improving his abilities.
However, the top priority was for Chen Sheng to build a temporary shelter.
Standing at the foot of the mountain, he looked around.
Quickly,
He set his sights on a piece of the riverside, which was relatively flat and suitable for building a house.
Whoosh!
Chen Sheng leaped up high.
After several jumps and landings, he stabilized his figure.
He looked around.
The clear river water flowed slowly, and he could even see the fish and shrimp swimming in the river.
Not far away was an old forest, perfect for Chen Sheng to obtain materials locally.
Soon,
Chen Sheng built a fire pit using stones and dry tree branches.
As for a flint, Chen Sheng didn’t bring one.
He didn’t need one either.
His fingertip touched the twigs and leaves.
Electric light leaped out instantly.
Soon,
The fire was burning.
Seeing this, Chen Sheng went back to the tent and took out an iron pot.
Prior to coming here, he had bought all the things he could think of in Kyoto.
He added river water to the iron pot, then took out spirit medicine and herbs from the bag and put them in. Chen Sheng did not pay attention to them for the time being.
He only had enough spirit medicine for one or two days of cultivation.
To cultivate in the mountains for a long time, Chen Sheng needed a constant supply of spirit medicine.
Fortunately,
He still had the top-grade spirit seeds given to him by Shen Ziming.
Thus,
During the time the spirit medicine was boiling, Chen Sheng was not idle either.
After setting up the tent and placing his belongings, he opened up a not too big or small plot of land for planting the spirit medicine using his bare hands.
He planted the tree-stump spirit medicine.
He sprinkled the seeds of flowers and plants he had bought earlier.
Chen Sheng then got up and went to the riverside to wash his dirt-covered arms.
Having done all this,
He stood on the empty ground and summoned his panel.
[Chen Sheng] [Strength: 292] [Agility: 304]
[Constitution: 309]
[Skill Column: Thunder Breath Level 1: 1/1000, Profound and True Martial Arts
Level 3: 0/500]
[Skill Points: 284]
Last night, after Chen Sheng had slightly reorganized himself, he ran to the riverside near Yinghui Grocery Store to try cultivating Thunder Breath.
The effect was quite pleasing.
As a result of a night’s work, Chen Sheng’s three attributes all increased by 16 points.
According to his calculations, if he practiced Thunder Breath, he could improve his attributes by 50 or 60 points every day.
His progress now is more than double what it was before he went to the Sealed
Land.
As long as he devoted himself to cultivating in the mountain forest for some time.
At least his strength could be improved several times more.
Thinking of this.
Chen Sheng turned around and went back to his tent.
When he reappeared, he was holding a bundle of ropes in his hands.
Thunder Breath did not require a fixed posture for practicing.
The main method was to use electric currents to constantly strengthen every corner of Chen Sheng’s body.
so,
In order to maximize his training speed,
Chen Sheng decided to make some simple training equipment for himself, practicing Thunder Breath while exercising simultaneously.
And so,
As Chen Sheng entered the mountain forest.
Loud rumbling noises of trees falling to the ground echoed continuously.
Several minutes later,
On the riverside, a dozen or so sturdy tree trunks that had been stripped of their branches and leaves were piled up.
The broken ends of these trunks looked awful, as if they had been forcibly snapped off by someone’s brute force.
Indeed, that was the case.
Feeling that there were enough of them, Chen Sheng used special ropes to tie these sturdy trunks together.
Afterward,
He lifted them up lightly.
A heavy howling sound resounded.
The simple dumbbell, composed of numerous tree trunks and weighing tens of tons, was easily lifted over Chen Sheng’s head.
And his appearance seemed very relaxed.
As if he was not holding a large bundle of heavy tree trunks that could crush a person and cause the ground to collapse, but a plastic bowl instead.
In fact,
With Chen Sheng’s current physical strength, the weight he could lift was far greater than this.
However, due to limited conditions, he could only make do for now. After briefly testing the stability of the “dumbbell,”
Chen Sheng gently picked it up and put it aside for the time being.
He then went to the fire.
After nearly two hours of boiling, the concoction was emitting a strong green glow.
Without hesitation,
Chen Sheng directly picked up the iron pot.
He didn’t care about the high temperature of the pot and the heat of the medicine soup.
Gurgling-
His Adam’s apple moved up and down.
The soup and medicine were all swallowed by Chen Sheng.
“HOO —
He put down the iron pot, feeling a warm sensation in his abdomen.
Glancing at the still-burning fire by his side,
Chen Sheng gently exhaled.
The strong air pressure fell, and the flames were extinguished in an instant.
After all this,
Chen Sheng picked up the dumbbell again and went to an open space far from the tent and fire.
He held his breath and focused, feeling the power of Thunder pervading every corner of his surroundings.
The next second-
Zi Zi First, an electric arc leaped out of Chen Sheng’s body.
Then,
One after another.
In just a blink of an eye,
Countless electric arcs wrapped around Chen Sheng’s body.
Feeling the intense pain from every corner of his body,
Chen Sheng frowned but said nothing.
He just tried his best to adjust his breathing, making every cell in his body active, absorbing the energy brought by the Spirit Medicine while also accepting the strengthening of the electric current.
About a minute or so later,
After Chen Sheng initially adapted to the intensity of the electric current, he directly bent down and lifted the trunks tied with ropes at his feet.
Raising them over his head,
Chen Sheng’s knees slowly bent, and he began to do squats.
One,
rlhvvo.
At first, Chen Sheng’s speed was slow.
Because he still needed to divert some of his attention to control the electric
current so that it would not destroy the equipment in his hands. However, as Chen Sheng became more and more accustomed,
The speed of his squats became faster and faster.
Hoo-hoo!
At the beginning, only the sound of heavy objects cutting through the air echoed on the riverside.
But ten minutes later,
The speed of Chen Sheng’s squats became faster and faster.
His figure blurred as if creating a continuous illusion.
The original howling sounds transformed into the roaring noise of fierce wind sweeping.
The nearby river was swept into the sky, turning into water droplets that fell on the riverside.
The fish and shrimp inside the river fell to the ground with a pitter-patter sound, only to be blown into the sky again as if riding on a non-stop roller coaster.
The wild animals in the surrounding mountain forests also sensed the commotion here.
However, none of them had the courage to approach the riverside at this time.
Because the atmosphere here-
Filled with a natural sense of power, made them feel terrified.
And so,
Time slowly passed.
The sun gradually set behind the layers of mountains.
It was not until the sky completely darkened BANG!
That Chen Sheng’s movement came to a sudden stop.
“Hoo – ”
He sighed deeply.
Feeling that it had been a long time since he had worked out so heartily and carefree.
He called up the panel: [Chen Sheng] [Strength: 317] [Agility: 329]
[Constitution: 334] [Skill Column: Thunder Breath Level 1: 2/1000, Profound and True Martial Arts
[Skill Points: 359]
The effect of Thunder Breath combined with weight-bearing training was amazing.
In just over four hours,
Chen Sheng’s three attributes had risen by 25 points.
Equal to the effect of his training for a whole day before going to the Sealed
Land.
His speed of improvement now could be described as terrifying.
According to Chen Sheng’s estimation, he should be able to upgrade Profound and True Martial Arts once again tomorrow..
