Becoming a God by Visualizing the Sun

Chapter 13 Breathing Method!
Captain Zhang looked at Qin Hao.

His eyes were no longer as cold as before, but instead held a hint of...expectation.

After three days of practicing the sword, one can master the demon-subduing sword technique to a small degree.

Just by seeing the Heaven and Earth Slashing Sword once, one can grasp its essence.

He can definitely be called... a martial arts genius!
Genius is an extremely scarce resource no matter where you are.

Although Qin Hao's muscles and bones have not been developed, he is thin.

You can practice even if your muscles and bones are not yet developed.

It is thin and can be raised.

If he has someone to guide him and someone to train him, his future will be limitless. He might even be able to make a fortune and return to Qingzhou!
"Practicing martial arts?!"

These two short words made Qin Hao, who was already a little exhausted, breathe heavily.

It also tore apart the haze that had trapped him in the demon prison and prevented him from escaping.

This means that he will soon be free from his status as a menial worker and see the light of day again.

"call……"

Qin Hao took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

He knew very well that he was favored by Captain Zhang because he had demonstrated a value that was difficult for him to ignore and was worthy of his investment.

This is just a starting point.

He has heard too many stories about the tragedy of Zhongyong.

"I will never forget the kindness of Mr. Zhang!"

Qin Hao clasped his fists, looked solemn, and spoke solemnly.

I am just a menial worker. Even if I have talent, it will be difficult for me to make a comeback if Captain Zhang turns a blind eye to it.

Opportunity, for most people, is actually the most difficult thing.

"..."

Captain Zhang smiled, a rare moment, and patted his shoulder with his broad hand: "I can give you this opportunity, but whether you can seize it or not is up to you."

"My name is Zhang Yuan. You can follow Niu Gui and the others and call me 'Boss'. There's no need to be distant."

"Come with me."

Zhang Yuan turned around and walked into the lobby of the garrison.

Soon, a soldier in black armor brought over a written contract. When passing by Qin Hao, he couldn't help but look at it a few more times out of curiosity.

Zhang Yuan took the contract, opened it, looked up at Qin Hao, and recited:
"Qin Hao, a native of Qingping Town, encountered a demonic disaster half a year ago and fled to Gushan City. He sold himself to the Demon Slayer Bureau and his true identity has been identified..."

This is my...indenture?!
Zhang Yuan snapped his fingers, and a wisp of life fire rose up, igniting the paper contract in Qin Hao's astonished eyes.

"From today on, you are no longer a refugee or a servant. As for your new household registration..."

Zhang Yuan paused and said, "We can talk about it after you cultivate your Qi and blood and enter the country."

As the indenture was burned, the stone that was weighing on Qin Hao's heart finally fell to the ground.

He was about to clasp his hands in thanks, but saw Zhang Yuan waving his hand.

"No need to thank me now. It's just a piece of paper. You can rewrite it after burning it. If you want to completely break free from this shackle, you can only rely on yourself."

Qin Hao nodded heavily: "Please teach me, Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Yuan sat at the table with a majestic posture and said, "Your Demon Subduing Sword Technique has already achieved the ability to penetrate the entire body. You've made some progress. You should have tried to strengthen your body."

Qin Hao nodded: "I tried it, but it didn't work very well. It felt like... something was missing."

Zhang Yuan smiled calmly: "With your understanding and talent, it's normal for you to discover it."

"The demon-slaying sword techniques I've passed down to you are, of course, complete, but..."

"Although the Demon Subduing Sword Technique is the foundation of the Demon Slaying Division's martial arts, it also has internal and external aspects. The external part is training in fighting techniques, while the internal part is training in breathing techniques."

Breathing method?
Zhang Yuan said this, pulling out a booklet from the books on the table and asking, "Can you read?"

Qin Hao nodded.

His father was a barefoot doctor in the town. He had taught him the Thousand Character Classic, so he could recognize some of it. "Let's take a look."

Qin Hao did as he was told.

Opening the booklet, it recorded the moves and breathing techniques of the Demon-Subduing Sword Technique.

Through texts, he also learned the importance of breathing techniques.

Simply practicing external fighting techniques may allow you to perform sword techniques completely and smoothly, but it is extremely difficult to cultivate qi and blood.

It requires a lot of torture, a lot of time and painstaking effort to achieve it.

It will take at least three to five years.

But with the help of breathing techniques, this time can be greatly shortened.

The condensed qi and blood are also more vigorous.

Looking at the complete Demon Subduing Sword Technique, Qin Hao glanced at Zhang Yuan inconspicuously, muttering in his heart:
"Zhang Tou taught martial arts, but he didn't mention breathing techniques. It seems he didn't expect the servants to be able to cultivate qi and blood and embark on the path of martial arts?"

"You're probably wondering why I didn't teach you about breathing techniques in the first place, right?"

Zhang Yuan's eyes were shining, as if he could see through his thoughts.

Qin Hao said frankly: "Yes."

Zhang Yuan said calmly, "You should understand that in this world, if you want to be looked at differently by others, you must either be exceptionally talented or have other ulterior motives..."

"How many of the servants do you think are exceptionally talented?"

Qin Hao was dumbfounded.

Not to mention extraordinary talent, the servants were all born into refugee families, with weak bodies and lack of energy and blood. The word "talent" has nothing to do with them at all.

If I hadn't awakened the [Visualization Power], I probably wouldn't have had the chance to stand here.

Zhang Yuan leaned back in his chair and said indifferently, "For me, nothing can happen in the Demon Prison. I need the servants alive, so I am passing on the martial arts."

Having said that, he paused, then raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "But I didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise."

then.

He took out another booklet from his thick breastplate and placed it on the table.

On the surface of the booklet, there are five big words written: [Cut the sky and the earth with one sword].

"Your talent and understanding are among the top three among those I've met."

Zhang Yuan placed one hand on the booklet, looked directly at Qin Hao, and spoke with some emotion.

"Now I'll give you a choice."

"What you hold in your hands is the complete version of the Demon Subduing Sword Technique. Your external training has already reached the point where your strength can flow throughout your body. Combined with the breathing technique, perhaps within half a year you will be able to cultivate your Qi and blood and enter the initial realm of martial arts."

"As for this..."

He pushed the booklet in front of Qin Hao.

"【Heaven and Earth Slash】is not a martial art from the Demon Slayer Division. You don't need to know its origin for now."

"Just know that if you can master this, you'll be invincible within your realm!"

Mention this martial art.

Zhang Yuan's eyes became as sharp as a knife again, and his words were filled with unparalleled confidence.

"The only drawback is that not everyone can learn [Heaven and Earth Slash]. If one's physique isn't strong enough, it might even cripple one. If one's talent isn't good enough, it will significantly slow down one's progress."

"I'm not worried about your talent. The difficulty lies in your physical strength. You may not be able to cultivate your Qi and blood within a year."

"I've already told you the pros and cons of both. It's up to you to decide which one you want to learn."

Qin Hao looked at Zhang Yuan, then looked at the two martial arts.

If he chooses the Demon Subduing Sword Technique, he already has the foundation and can quickly cultivate his Qi and blood to become a beginner warrior.

If you choose Heaven and Earth Slash, although it will take longer, the upper limit in the future will be higher.

He quickly made a decision, reached out and pressed the book on the table, and said in a firm tone:
"I choose [Heaven and Earth Slash]!"
