“Flas are usually yellow or blue. It depends on whether the combustion is complete or not. The Fire Whip is blue. It’s an ordinary fla. However, it contains much more energy than the kind of fla the Fireball Skill can produce. It’s more destructive, and its range of attack is larger. If you use different cultivation thods to cast this skill, the strength it displays is also different. This is an offensive thod designed to deal with multiple enemies, which you will find handy in the current situation.”
Zhang Han pulled the yacht to a stop and began to teach ngng the second move. After he taught ngng the way of running the secret skill, he began to tell her so points for attention.
“Don’t be rash when casting the Fire Whip. The first step is to form the fire whip. After the whip takes shape, all you need to learn is how to use it. You can brandish the Fire Whip at will. For example, you can swing it horizontally to tackle ordinary enemies. But since you’re learning this secret skill, I’ve prepared a set of whip-using thod for you, which encompasses about a dozen moves. You take ti to learn all the moves after we get ho. Now, the first thing you need to master is to form the Fire Whip. Let’s start with the set of thods I’ve told you.”
“Yes.” ngng nodded obediently. She didn’t have much ti to think about other things, for she was absorbed in thinking about the formation of the Fire Whip.
As soon as she closed her eyes, ngng quickly opened them again.
“Daddy, I want a nice-looking whip.”
“Well... the whip can be whatever kind you like. Just focus and picture it in your head. Think about it in the way you want it to be,” Zhang Han said with a smile.
“Okay.”
ngng closed her eyes again and began to run the Cultivation thod with the thod of the secret skill.
“Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...”
Suddenly, there was a faint sound coming from her palm, and a cluster of flas appeared.
It was crimson.
But a second later, it went out.
ngng opened her eyes, looking a little confused.
“You got the order wrong. Let the Fire Whip take shape first, and then you can picture what it looks like.” Zhang Han encouraged her, “As long as you follow the correct order, I believe you can do it at one go.”
“But I don’t know what I want it to look like.”
“Actually, you don’t have many choices. The Fire Whip is just a weapon that functions as a whip. For example, so have made the whip look like a chain, so have made it look like snakes, and others have shaped it like bones. You can’t change the appearance of the whole whip yet. You can only change the handle.”
“Well, I see. I’m sure I’ll make it this ti.”
ngng did a pep talk to herself.
She closed her eyes again.
After she adjusted her breathing for five seconds, the sizzling sound was heard in ngng’s right hand again.
It was as if sothing horrible was about to appear.
Two seconds later.
“Swoosh!”
A cluster of flas popped up. This ti, the flas were light blue.
The shape of the cluster of flas was constantly changing. At first, it looked like a caterpillar, but then, it turned into a palm-sized ball.
“Is it because ngng has tossed too many fireballs?”
Zhang Han found it quite funny. However, he was more or less stunned by what he saw next, and a look of admiration appeared in his eyes.
The caterpillar had broken through the cocoon and beco a butterfly!
The cluster of flas, which had been shaped like a blue butterfly, ca into being, followed by a half-ter long whip.
“It’s done!” Zhang Han said with excitent.
“Wow.” ngng opened her eyes and was a little surprised. “It’s really the sa as I pictured it.”
“No, no! Why is the whip so short? I pictured it as several ters long.”
ngng was overjoyed to see the butterfly-shaped flas. But when she saw the length of the whip, she was sowhat baffled.
“You think it can be as long as you want it to be?” Zhang Han couldn’t help laughing. “This is the sa as the Fireball Skill. You need continuous practice. And the higher the level of comprehension you have, the bigger the fireball is, and the longer the whip is.”
“But with such a short whip, it’s not powerful at all,” ngng muttered.
“Who said it’s not powerful? You’ll know when you try it.” Zhang Han cast a light golden protective cover around ngng and then said, “Go ahead. With the energy left in your body, this whip can’t last for more than a few minutes.”
“Shall I go look for those frogs?”
ngng blinked and quickly jumped off from the yacht. The running water still influenced her balanced. As if she was walking on a balance beam, she staggered to the forest where the water was calm.
“Crack!”
As soon as ngng flung the Fire Whip, she saw a one-ter-wide wave of fire, which was light blue and looked like the gathering of countless petals, dash forward.
“Croak!”
Three blue frogs suddenly moved. Before they could strike, the other side already began to attack. They started to fight back. A red tongue, accompanied by a beam of faint light, quickly zood at ngng. It was as fast as lightning. Yet, no matter how fast it was, it could not break the defense set by Zhang Han.
“Swoosh!”
When the fire wave flashed past, and the three blue frogs seed to have rged into the blue fla and dissipated.
“Bravo!”
ngng shouted in surprise. Then, she continued to wield the Fire Whip, proceeding to the second round of the training.
On the yacht, Zhang Han just smiled and said nothing.
With ngng’s strength, it was a piece of cake for her to take out these spirit beasts who had not even reached the Peak Strength Stage.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!”
ngng wielded the Fire Whip to her heart’s content. After striking a dozen tis, she was finally exhausted.
“I’m tired again.”
The Fire Whip disappeared. ngng ran back in a hurry and jumped onto the yacht from the water.
“Daddy, one more dicinal pellet.”
The little girl even asked for the dicinal pellet of her own accord.
Because she now knew that she could quickly recover her energy once she took it.
“Here you are.”
Zhang Han handed her one, then he caressed her head. “Very good. You learned it in less than 20 minutes. You just need to practice more in the future. One day, you will also be a strong martial artist that fears nothing. Yet, there is one more thing that you should be careful with. There are many dangerous creatures in relics. For example, the blue frogs we saw just now are poisonous, highly poisonous. And there are many of them. Therefore, we have to be prepared for the dangers in advance. We should carry so defensive treasures with us. In fact, when we enter the relic, we should activate the defensive treasures as soon as possible just like that An Xiaoshan did. Then, we must observe the surroundings. Don’t panic when sothing unexpected occurs. Because panic will make people die faster. The ability to calm down and analyze the situation is the basis of survival.”
“Well, I should calm my nerves a bit,” ngng responded with a clear voice
She picked up the cold juice beside her and began to drink.
“By the way, Daddy,” When she was done with the juice, ngng sat up and said, “you say I’ve carried a lot of defensive treasures. But why can’t I use them myself?”
“They function of their own accord,” Zhang Han replied. “When we get back, you can go to your grand uncle’s. He has a lot of strange treasures. Ask him to give you so as toys.”
“Great! I’ll ask him as soon as I get back. If he says no, I’ll go and complain to my grand aunt.” ngng abruptly put on an impish smile.
In his family, Wang Ming’s status was not as high as Rong Jiaxin’s. He was the kind of man who let his wife call the shots. Rong Jiaxin had a great say in the affairs of the Wang family. She also doted on ngng very much. If ngng said that she wanted so treasures to play with, wouldn’t Rong Jiaxin empty half of Wang Ming’s laboratory?
It could be imagined that Wang Ming would soon live in fright and astoundnt for a few days.
Thinking of this, Zhang Han burst into laughter.
“There’s nothing interesting here. Let’s go to the next place.”
“Sure. Off we go!”
ngng held up both of her hands and cheered excitedly.
“Swoosh!”
The yacht traveled very fast. It headed forward without a stop along the river.
But the forest was so vast that it seed that they would never get out of it.
“ngng, look, we seem to be traveling in a straight line, but in fact, we are not. We’ve been making a detour. It’s like that a person would co back to where he set off if he keeps going forward without knowing the direction. As An He said, the river here is like an S-shaped curve. According to the angle of the slope, we’re going upward. And our final destination should be a lake at the top of a mountain,” Zhang Han said.
“Daddy, how co you know so much?” ngng’s eyes glinted with curiosity. “Is it because of the thing called soul sense? Is it like a detection device?”
“Yes.” Zhang Han nodded and explained, “A normal cultivator will open his soul sense at the Innateness Stage. But a smart cultivator can start this process at the Foundation Stage.”
“Daddy, are you blowing your own trumpet?”
Hearing this, ngng asked with so suspicion.
“That’s also a complint to you, isn’t it?” Zhang Han’s mouth quivered slightly.
Since the little girl had grown up, sotis her train of thoughts really took him by surprise.
“I can do it too?” ngng’s eyes lit up.
“Of course, don’t you see whose daughter you are?”
“Haha.”
“...”
They chatted and laughed along the way. And the trip took about two hours.
After passing through the blue frogs’ place, it seed that they had arrived at the territory of water snakes. From ti to ti, there were ripples on the calm water surface at the bottom of those trees. It ant that water snakes were swimming by.
Without exception, these water snakes did not approach the yacht in that they felt a trace of aura that Zhang Han had emitted.
The aura was terrifying.
After they passed the water snakes’ territory, the trees beca fewer. The environnt turned more lifeless. And there was a faint mist over the water.
“Daddy, it’s so quiet here, and the water is so clear. It’s said that when the water is too clear, there will be no fish. So, there must be so monsters here. We should be careful,” ngng lowered her voice and said with a serious tone.
“Who said that there is no fish when the water is too clean?”
Zhang Han smiled and pointed to the front. “Look over there.”
“Eh? What’s that? A ton of fish!”
The water surface ahead of them turned black. Upon a closer look, they found that it was a mass of black fish. Each fish was half a ter long and had sharp teeth.
At the sight of them, one would think of three words: “the Cannibal Fish!”
These Cannibal Fish seed to be afraid of nothing. They all gathered around the yacht.
“You can practice the Deep Fla Whip here.”
“Yes.”
ngng did what she was told and cast the Deep Fla Whip again.
But then ca the problem.
“I can’t reach them.”
Standing on the deck, ngng’s little whip was not long enough to touch the fish.
Zhang Han was quite speechless.
“The fish will be within your reach if you go into the water.”
“Oh, right, right.”
ngng thumped her forehead and muttered, “I’ve beco dumb after hearing Daddy’s flattering words.”
With that, she jumped into the water, completely ignoring Zhang Han, whose face darkened with embarrassnt.
“Swoosh...”
“Daddy, they’re too powerful. Shall we retreat?”
ngng waved the Fire Whip 10 tis but only killed eight fish. These Cannibal Fish were good at defense and were also very powerful. They opened their mouths and charged at ngng, which gave the little girl quite a turn.
Seeing this, Zhang Han hurriedly reached out and scooped ngng back on the yacht.
“Take a break before you continue.”
In this way, ngng went through the first training in her life.
She had practiced five tis in the territory of the Cannibal Fish.
And the only skill she used was the Fire Whip. She killed eight fish on the first try, 13 on the second try, 18 on the third try, 31 on the fourth try, and 69 on the fifth try!
Her progress was extrely fast.
It was attributable to her talent, as well as Zhang Han’s good teaching.
Zhang Han had been making plans for ngng’s cultivation for many years. And he had considered every step carefully. Therefore, how could she not progress fast?
“This area is a threat to those at the Peak Strength Stage. Ten minutes before we arrived here, eight people were killed here.”
“Then they couldn’t go back ho, nor could they see their families again. It’s so sad.” ngng pressed her lips as if she suddenly understood sothing.
It certainly made sense to be cautious and guarded.
“This is the way with martial arts. So it is with cultivation,” Zhang Han said slowly.
“Let’s go to the next destination. I figure we’re almost there.”
He prepared to speed up. ngng’s performance in the first training had already lived up to Zhang Han’s expectations.
