Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Saber Technique Profound Communication
Woof!
As Zhang Yuan just pushed open the door to the small courtyard, a big yellow dog suddenly leaped towards him.
It wagged its tail desperately, letting out a whimpering sound of affection from its throat!
Zhang Yuan embraced Da Hu’s dog head and rubbed it vigorously, then saw his mother sitting under the eaves in front.
He showed a big smile: "Mother, I’m back!"
"Ah!"
Mother Zhang hurriedly put down her needlework, both surprised and delighted: "Have you eaten lunch? I’ll go make it for you now!"
Zhang Yuan released Da Hu and stepped forward to ask, "Mother, have you been comfortable living here during this ti?"
This small house located inside Whale Castle was specifically arranged by Yue Wuji for Zhang Yuan’s family to live in.
Though the house isn’t big and conditions can’t compare to the one in Wu Manor.
But it’s more than enough for three people to live.
Most importantly, Whale Castle is safe enough, and with Mother Zhang living here, Zhang Yuan has no worries left behind.
Mother Zhang smiled: "It’s quite good."
In fact, she preferred the original house, not only spacious but also with a backyard to plant so vegetables.
Neighbors were also easy to interact with.
But Mother Zhang wasn’t a person who doesn’t understand reason.
She was very aware that being arranged to move to Whale Castle must be related to Zhang Yuan.
Mother Zhang felt that she couldn’t help Zhang Yuan with anything.
The only thing she could do was not to hold Zhang Yuan back as much as possible.
A bit of discomfort, what’s that matter?
And compared to the old days in Chen Family Village, life now is already very good!
So Mother Zhang had no complaints about it.
"Ah!"
At this mont, Xiang Xiu ran out of the room.
Seeing Zhang Yuan, her pretty face blushed, and she hurriedly saluted: "Young Master, you are back."
Zhang Yuan nodded: "Hmm, thank you for your hard work."
Moving is a troubleso affair, and there’s bound to be a lot of busywork during the process.
And Xiang Xiu is usually very diligent at ho, so it’s appropriate to acknowledge her hard work.
Xiang Xiu’s face turned even redder: "Young Master, you flatter , these are the duties of a maidservant."
Mother Zhang took Xiang Xiu’s hand and sighed: "If it weren’t for Xiang Xiu accompanying
during these days, it would have been hard to endure."
Her main concern was about Zhang Yuan’s safety.
Being alone at ho can really lead to wandering thoughts.
Having soone to talk to and comfort is totally different.
Zhang Yuan smiled slightly and took out two hairpins from his pocket.
A golden hairpin was given to his mother, and a silver hairpin to Xiang Xiu, as gifts for returning ho.
The hairpins were purchased from a centuries-old reputable silver building in Nanxun City, finely crafted in both gold and silver.
Mother Zhang and Xiang Xiu were very happy.
The forr’s happiness and satisfaction, and the latter’s shy joy made Zhang Yuan feel that the silver wasn’t spent in vain.
After settling into the new ho, Zhang Yuan went to the armory the next day to select a cultivation technique.
This was a reward bestowed by Yue Wuji.
After so consideration, he finally chose a horizontal cultivation technique—Iron Cloth Shirt!
After joining the Furious Whale Gang, Zhang Yuan separately learned "Thunderous Wave Palm," "Wave-Slaying Saber," and "Ripple Step," and later mastered the "Cloud-Piercing Arrow."
With close combat, long-range attack, weapons, and body technique all covered, he only lacked a defensive technique.
A hexagonal warrior naturally needs to be both offensive and defensive, and this "Iron Cloth Shirt" just happened to fill his gap.
Moreover, "Iron Cloth Shirt" is one of the best horizontal cultivation techniques in the Entering Force Realm; when practiced to the Great Success Realm, the entire body becos impervious to weapons, with muscles, bones, skin, and flesh harder than gold and iron!
Besides, this technique also contains many thods for leveraging and deflecting force.
It was entirely designed for real combat!
Therefore, after receiving the copy of the technique, Zhang Yuan imdiately devoted a great amount of ti and energy into practicing.
At the sa ti, he also invested the source material he had accumulated into the second host, the Jade Mantis.
No choice, as long as he couldn’t find a new host to fill the hive, Zhang Yuan certainly couldn’t just keep waiting.
Source material is ant to be used, storing it won’t earn any interest.
Choosing the Jade Mantis was a well-thought-out decision by Zhang Yuan.
First, the extraordinary abilities of the Black Giant Ant and Golden Grasshopper are currently fully sufficient, even exceeding his bearing limit.
Upgrading them now wouldn’t be useful, saving it for later is the right choice.
And between the Jade Mantis and White Dragon Loach, one has saber technique mastery, and the other has water mastery. The forr enhances his imdiate combat power, while the latter is too restricted.
The choice is naturally self-explanatory.
Zhang Yuan also eagerly anticipated the upgraded abilities of advanced saber technique mastery!
However, to his surprise, upgrading the Jade Mantis from level 3 to level 4 not only took a long ti but also required a significantly larger amount of source material than expected.
Zhang Yuan ended up pouring a full 200 points of source material into it, and only after he returned to Whale Castle for half a month did he finally complete this difficult advancent.
[Host: Zhang Yuan]
[Realm: Tier Two (Dark Force)]
[Divine Nest: Level 3 (1%)]
[Host: Level 3 Black Giant Ant (1%)/8x Strength]
[Host: Level 4 Jade Mantis (1%)/Basic Sword Technique Profound Communication]
[Host: Level 3 Golden Grasshopper (1%)/8x Agility]
[Host: Level 3 White Dragon Loach (1%)/Advanced Water Mastery]
[Qi Blood: 258/260]
[Source Material: 13.6]
Thanks to his previous trials, Zhang Yuan had accumulated over 200 points of source material.
Just enough to et the needs of the Jade Mantis’s upgrade.
The extraordinary ability of the level 4 Jade Mantis changed from advanced saber technique mastery to basic sword technique profound communication.
Apart from the grade, the difference is only a single word in essence!
What’s the difference between "mastery" and "profound communication"?
Of course, this was the question Zhang Yuan was most interested in.
Considering it wasn’t suitable to practice new abilities inside Whale Castle, he went alone to a deserted countryside.
Looking around, with a saber in hand, Zhang Yuan cald his mind and activated the power of the Jade Mantis.
Instantly enhancing himself with "Basic Sword Technique Profound Communication."
The next mont, a peculiar force surged from the divine nest in his left hand, instantly coursing through his body and infusing into the Yanling Saber he held.
The three hundred forged long saber suddenly shuddered, letting out a soul-stirring tremor!
A flash of inspiration crossed Zhang Yuan’s mind, and without hesitation, he swung the saber forward.
The slash was silent yet fast as lightning, as if it cleaved a spatial rift ahead in an instant.
Revealing a sharpness that severed everything!
The saber montum wasn’t exhausted, the blade glowed brightly, and a streak of fierce energy burst forth.
Formless Blade Qi!
With the saber descending, a long slash mark appeared on the ground ahead instantly!
So this is the power of sword technique profound communication.
Zhang Yuan instantly realized in his heart!
Triggering formless blade qi was originally an ability only possessed by those in the Qi Entry Realm.
As a tier two dark force warrior.
He actually managed to transcend realm levels and execute such high-tier skills.
The brilliance of sword technique profound communication is evident at a glance!
There’s no doubt, this would be another trump card mastered by Zhang Yuan, sufficient to turn the tide at critical monts.
To catch a strong enemy off guard!
