The Legend of the Great Desolation: I Am the Fortress

Chapter 110: Instructing Houyi?

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, a hundred days had passed.

"Junior Brother Leizhan, are you going to the mountains to chop firewood again today?"

On the rugged mountain road leading to the foot of Fangcun Mountain, two figures, both wearing straw sandals, cloth clothes and straw hats, were walking down the mountain.

"Big Brother." Lei Zhan smiled and turned to look at the woodcutter. "We've been chopping wood for a hundred days, and today is the last day. We must persevere."

"Is it the last day already?" The woodcutter's dark face also had a hint of a smile. He nodded gently, "Okay."

For the past hundred days, every day when the golden crow rose, Lei Zhan would go out in the early morning dew and pick out ten big trees with a thickness of two arms to cut down in the mountains.

Day after day, it is quite fulfilling.

There is only one way down the mountain, so naturally you might occasionally run into woodcutters entering the forest.

They chatted with each other for a few minutes, walked into the mountains together, and then separated, each doing their own thing without interfering with each other.

……

sand~
sand~
sand~
Stepping on the yellow fallen leaves, Leizhan carried an axe and looked at the big trees around him. This was already deep in the forest. The trees here were denser and thicker than those on the outskirts.

Lei Zhan looked into the distance and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Slowly, he walked towards a towering tree in the distance that was obviously taller and thicker than ordinary trees.

After walking around the big tree, Leizhan nodded with satisfaction. The tree in front of him alone was worth three or four ordinary trees.

“This one!”

Leizhan said softly, "This one is thick enough, so it must be stronger and more resistant to being cut."

After chopping wood in the mountains for nearly a hundred days, Leizhan naturally gained a deeper understanding of the trees in the forest.

I even asked the Yellow-haired Bear and learned that this ancient alien species was most likely the laurel plant on the supreme star Taiyin in ancient times.

Although it is not as mysterious and precious as the real Taiyin Laurel, it is also a good material for refining magic weapons for ordinary cultivators and is considered a rare treasure.

"After chopping wood for a hundred days, I became more proficient in using the power of space and time. My understanding of the secret techniques passed down by my master has also improved rapidly."

"However, if you want to go deeper into time and space, you will need a lot of time to slowly comprehend it. Or, you will need to fight and spar with a large number of powerful people."

Lei Zhan couldn't help but shake his head slightly when he thought of this.

You should know that the secret technique "Time and Space" passed down by Patriarch Bodhi is divided into three chapters. The essence of each chapter is the same, the only difference is the power of the "Tao" that is invoked.

These three chapters are the space chapter, the time chapter, and the most mysterious space-time chapter, and each chapter is divided into five levels.

It can be said that this secret technique can be completely split into three powerful secret techniques that follow different paths: time, space, and time and space.

Each level of this secret technique corresponds to the corresponding original power.

The first level of the space chapter corresponds to the first level of space power.

The second level corresponds to the second level of spatial power.

……

The fifth level corresponds to the fifth level of spatial power.

And so on.

The same is true for the remaining time chapters and the space-time chapters.

The secret techniques can guide cultivators to more easily realize the existence of "Tao".

Conversely, a deep understanding of the Tao can also help in comprehending the secret art of "Time and Space".

But the only difference is that if you want to learn the time and space chapter, you must perfectly integrate the power of space and the power of time at the same level to form the power of time and space, so that you can truly learn the time and space secrets of that level.

At first, Lei Zhan had no way to be guided by the secret techniques, and he relied on hundreds of sudden realizations to comprehend the two original powers of the first level on his own, and then merged them into the power of time and space.

Now, naturally, I can fully comprehend the first level of this complete secret art of time and space.

During the past hundred days, Leizhan has even been able to try to accelerate his own time and space, artificially creating an environment that can change the speed of time.

Unfortunately, it can only control twice the speed of the surrounding time flow at most, and it cannot last long.

At most, he could only hold out for half a day before his divine power and magic power were exhausted.

And if it happens in battle, the consumption will be even more terrifying.

However, in a fight with cultivators of the same level, even if one can only speed up the time of one breath, it is enough to determine the outcome of the battle at a critical moment.

boom!
Lei Zhan stopped thinking about it and put away the axe in his hand with a flip of his hand.

At the same time, a silver spear appeared in his hand, which was the divine weapon refined by the blood of gods and demons, Han Ying.

"Swords can chop down trees, axes can chop down trees, and knives can chop down trees. On this last day, I'll be willful for once and try to chop down trees with this 'spear'!" Leizhan's eyes showed a hint of smile.

At the level of Leizhan, there is no difference between simply chopping down trees with an axe or a spear.

On the contrary, for Dui Zhan, using an axe was not as convenient as using a spear.

After all, Lei Zhan was not proficient in the way of the axe, but he had a deep understanding of the way of the spear, and was almost reaching the level of complete understanding of the way.

Lei Zhanxin moved freely, and the Hanying Divine Spear in his hand seemed like an extension of his body, as good as his arm.

He casually danced with a gun flower and shook the spear.

call.

Suddenly, a faint golden edge emerged in the space.

Lei Zhan looked at the towering tree in front of him, and his gun shot out like a dragon. In an instant, water and fire appeared, time and space were disordered, and he swept across directly.

Boom~~~

Like a hot knife cutting butter, a deep gash suddenly appeared in the giant tree, which was three or four times thicker than the average tree. If it were to happen again like that, the tree would be cut right in half.

……

The Golden Crow descended, the Moon Rabbit rose, and it was evening.

"Junior Brother Leizhan."

A voice sounded behind Leizhan.

"Huh?" Lei Zhan turned around immediately and saw his eldest brother dressed as a woodcutter walking out of the forest.

"Big Brother." Lei Zhan said with a smile, "Big Brother, are you preparing to go back?"

Normally, at this time of dusk and sunset, if you could meet the eldest brother, the woodcutter, it would be the time when he would put away his axe and return home.

"Well, let's go back." The woodcutter nodded, his eyes falling on the silver spear in Leizhan's hand. "Brother, why are you using a spear to chop down trees today? This spear is not as easy to use as an axe!"

"I just get inspired occasionally, and I'm sorry to make you laugh." Lei Zhan smiled, "But whether you chop down a tree with an axe or a gun, they're both tools. To me, they're all the same."

"Hmm?" The woodcutter was startled, then said softly, "Using an axe or a spear, it's all the same? The same!"

"It's all the same... Why bother with the formalities, the use of weapons, arms, or spirits?"

Wow~~~
An invisible wave emanated from around him. The woodcutter raised his arm and gently stroked it. An inexplicable force attached to it, and the space was instantly shattered, even the void was annihilated.

The woodcutter nodded thoughtfully. "If the hands can be used, then the feet can be used as well. Then can the soul be used?"

call.

An inexplicable power was added to his soul. After a moment, the woodcutter nodded thoughtfully.

"Adding a blessing to the soul will also make it stronger. Practicing airflow control magic weapons should allow you to have more and more powerful ones."

"It seems that my previous thoughts were correct. These are all possible, and divine power... is also possible."

Leizhan stood in the distance and watched quietly. He could naturally see that the eldest brother seemed to have gained some enlightenment because of his words.

But even Leizhan himself was a little confused.

"Can you use your hands? Can you use your feet?"

"Blessing the soul? Divine power is also possible?"

"What has the eldest brother realized? What was on his arm just now should be his mental power? The mental power is attached to his arm?" Lei Zhan muttered to himself, but he had a vague guess in his mind.

a long time.

The woodcutter just came back to his senses. He looked at Lei Zhan with a smile on his face, "Junior brother, do you also understand the power of the mind?"

"Hmm?" Lei Zhan was startled. Although he didn't understand why his elder brother, the woodcutter, asked him this, he still said respectfully:

"Replying to Senior Brother, the first magical skill book I learned in the Three Realms Palace was 'Hou Yi's Archery'."

"And a few days ago, while shooting arrows in the forest, my mental strength broke through to the second level."

"Hmm, that's right," the woodcutter nodded. "I've been trying to understand the truth all day, but today it was your words that finally enlightened me. This little insight I've gained can be considered a bit of a technique for operating my mind."

Wow.

The woodcutter pointed his finger, and a stream of light flew out from between his fingers and landed on the spot between Leizhan's eyebrows.

After the message was delivered, the woodcutter carried his axe and wood and leisurely turned around and left.

"call."

In just a moment, Lei Zhan woke up, and there was a lot of information in his mind, which were many unsystematic methods of mental power operation.

Among them are many other methods such as applying mental strength to the arms, fingers, legs, the whole body, and even the soul.

"Big Brother!" Lei Zhan shouted.

"Huh?" The woodcutter paused, turned around and looked over.

"Just now, I heard Senior Brother mention divine power. I think it must be related to the fusion of divine power and mental power." Leizhan said, "Junior Brother, please forgive me for being so presumptuous. If that's the case, Senior Brother, why don't you be more bold?"

"More courageous?" The woodcutter's face showed a hint of curiosity. "How can I become more courageous?"

Lei Zhan pondered for a moment before slowly saying, "Since Senior Brother can think of integrating divine power and mental power, why not add mana power as well?"

"Big Brother has been felling trees in this forest for years, so he must have a deep understanding of the axe. Why not create a technique that combines axe skills, divine power, magic power, and mental strength!"

"In this way, the God and Demon Flow can perfectly combine mental strength and axe skills to fight in close combat. Refining Qi flow can also control magic weapons, which is also a perfect combination of mental strength and axe skills."

Although what Lei Zhan said only provides some ideas, if the eldest brother really takes this path, his strength can be said to undergo a qualitative change.

If one could truly learn to combine mental strength with close combat, then their combat power would soar.

Lei Zhan's mind suddenly became overwhelmed with thoughts, and for a moment his ideas were flashing through his mind, and he was thinking a lot.

That’s right, Lei Zhan has memories of his past life, and the ideas he just proposed are all completely borrowed from the secret technique created by the top powerful person, the Heart Sword Emperor - the Heart Sword Technique.

That person, however, was able to surpass the Lord through the combination of his mental strength, divine power, magical power, and swordsmanship with the strength of the Eternal Emperor.

The Three Realms are special, and the top powers in the Three Realms are all extremely talented.

Lei Zhan knew the details of the senior brother in front of him. This senior brother, who looked no different from an ordinary woodcutter, was actually the best among them.

As long as Lei Zhan gives him an idea, he will have the opportunity to create a powerful path of his own from nothing.

"This...divine power, magical power, mental strength, and axe skills?"

The woodcutter frowned slightly, obviously lost in thought.
