Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World-Chapter 43 Fundamentals
"Look at yourself. I don't know how you got so powerful when you do not understand even the fundamentals of a punch. You do not understand anything at all. You are just lucky, that is all. Some master felt pity and he gave you an art to learn. How many times is he going to do that? If you do not know how to actually understand how the art works, if you do not understand what you are supposed to do, then you are going to be worthless in the future. You might have slacked off the last ten years, but you still have not passed your golden age completely. If you try and salvage what you can, then maybe you will have hope." Old Tian said, shaking his head.
"My fundamentals are flawed? That makes sense to me. I was only following the skills that were handed to me until now. I never was in an actual fight, and I even took that huge boost in where I started cultivating. It looks like getting the fundamentals right will go a long way in helping me in the future." I made a mental note.
Old Tian nodded at me and looked at the dummy. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m
"But you are stronger than you were today morning. Trying out gains of a new found strength, are we? I wonder how you get so powerful in such a small time frame." he laughed.
I looked at him with a tense face. How did he find out that I grew stronger just by looking at the dummy? It made no sense.
"Well, I was just cultivating, and I felt a little break through. I must be really lucky today. I wanted to test what it meant for me, and I rushed to the training ground to do that." I said hastily, trying to take his mind off of what he was thinking.
"Ah, we have a genius in our midst. The Liu Family is lucky. I will leave you to testing your limits then. But do not forget. Your fundamentals are important. Rather than a person who has low proficiency in Human Ranked Sword art, sects, and any skilled person will know that whoever has perfect mastery in the Basic Sword Skills will go farther in the martial way." Old Tian said.
"The Basic Sword Skills? Where can I find the Basic Skills for Spears?" I asked with a rush.
"I wonder what is wrong with you. The building that you came to this afternoon, where you took your weapon. That is the building where the skills of the family are also stored. Is there something wrong with your memory? Everyone in the family knows this." he looked at me curiously.
"It slipped my mind. Well, I think that I will go there and take those for now. I have no need to learn high skilled arts. I need to get my fundamentals right, like you said." I agreed.
"Well then. There is no need to go all the way back there. I am not in the mood to go through all the procedures of giving you a few skill books that everyone in the kingdom has access to. Here, just take these and scram. Everyone has a copy anyways, and I have no need for mine." Old Tian took out a set of books and handed them to me. He seemed to have a spatial ring of his own, and I looked at this with interest. Since when did a mere guard have a spatial ring? I knew that he was more powerful than he showed, and every time I encountered him, my suspicions were further confirmed.
"Thank you so much for this gift." I bowed down to accept the books.
"Don't sweat it. They are not that valuable a gift. Especially to someone who carried around a spatial ring like yours. I don't seem to recall anyone giving you this ring." Old Tian said, scratching his chin.
I quickly jumped with fright and started running out of the training grounds. I did not want to get into more trouble. This old man had an intuition that was going to put me in huge trouble.
Once I put a little gap between him and me, I opened the books that he had given me. There were a lot of diagrams, especially of bodies. Merdian points, postures, and the like covered the books. They were just like the skills that I learned, except that they focused on the more basic versions. The skills that I learned were a more complicated and profound version of this. But for anyone who was starting without the system, mastering the basics would be the best way to go.
Ping!
"Host has discovered incomplete Heaven grade skill. Does Host wish to use 5 skill points to complete the skill?" the system buzzed.
I froze and checked the message again. A heaven grade skill? I was holding the goddamn fundamentals that everyone apparently held. Did that mean that everyone in the kingdom had access to an incomplete heaven grade skill? I struck gold because of the system this time!
"5 skill points? That is everything that I have isn't it? But I can always learn more. Even the skills that I learn right now are not at the Heaven Grade, if I am not wrong. They are at most Earth grade high ranked skills. Wait a minute though. Aren't the fundamentals of different weapons? What the hell is the heaven grade skill? Which skill will be made the heaven grade system?" I asked.
"The skill that will be made will combine the incomplete aspects of the skill books that the Host is holding. The skill made will be the Ethereal Weapon Art. It shall be a combination of all the weapons. Host will be able to use all weapons if he achieves mastery of this skill." the system said.
"I hit a gold mine!" I grinned. Every weapon? This was the biggest cheat that the system could give me so far!
