Playing with fantasy beasts in the martial arts world

Chapter 10 Cha Nan's Trap

The initial condensed internal energy, though somewhat unfamiliar with the circulation route, managed to complete three full rotations relatively smoothly. A small amount of internal energy, transformed from qi, blood, and essence, returned to the dantian and was gradually refined into a tiny bit of weak internal force.

At this moment, Cha Nan had to stop cultivating, as a tingling, stinging sensation spread throughout her body.

This is the drawback of not 'opening up' the meridians. Although internal energy can circulate in the body, the number of times it can circulate is limited, and even if you are full of energy and have vigorous blood and qi, the fixed time you can practice every day is not long.

As Guo Xiang mentioned before, many of the superior internal skills, or even top-tier martial arts, are powerful because they allow one to cultivate and nourish their meridians simultaneously. This not only makes cultivation faster but also allows for a much longer daily cultivation time compared to others.

In the past, people used terms like "ten years," "twenty years," "thirty years," or "a full cycle of sixty years" to describe a person's strength. However, the concept was still quite vague because different people cultivate different internal skills, and the amount of internal skill they can gain in a year is different.

This is like Zhang Wuji practicing the Nine Yang Divine Skill for four or five years. When he came out of the mountain, his skill was already unparalleled in the martial arts world. So how many years of skill did he actually have?

Stopping her internal energy cultivation, Cha Nan turned to look at Guo Xiang, who was already propping her head up with her elbow and sleeping lightly. After a moment's hesitation, she didn't add any more wood to the fire beside her. Instead, she sat a little closer to Guo Xiang, allowing the heat from the fluffy shield to spread even further over her.

Guo Xiang seemed to instinctively sense the warmth and moved closer to Cha Nan, her little head instinctively trying to burrow into his arms. However, Cha Nan twisted his body, letting her head rest lightly on his shoulder, and then casually looked around.

Guo Fu and Guo Polu are no longer in the lobby; they must have gone to their guest rooms to rest.

Guo Polu was injured after all. Even though martial artists have superior physical talent, a broken bone still requires rest and recuperation. Guo Fu had to stay with him and take care of him.

Even though Guo Fu, now thirty, still has many ingrained traits, she is undoubtedly much gentler and more considerate than she was in her teenage years.

The lobby was filled with snoring. Even the pure white snowflakes falling from the large hole in the roof did not dispel the drowsiness of most people. Only a very few people were either sitting cross-legged, whispering, or drinking alone, gazing absently at the falling snowflakes.

"The accumulation of internal strength depends on two factors: first, the quality of the internal strength cultivation method; and second, one's own physical talent and aptitude."

“Those with exceptional talent can excel even by practicing ordinary internal energy cultivation methods, and their skills can be unparalleled. There are such examples. As far as I know, there is Xiao Feng. He learned ordinary superior internal energy cultivation methods from Shaolin, but his internal strength was never weaker than others. This may be because he was born with a strong body, wide meridians, and greater endurance. In the same amount of time, he could run the internal energy cultivation method more times, and his accumulation would naturally be much deeper than that of ordinary people.”

"So I need to strengthen my internal strength. Besides finding a suitable peerless internal energy cultivation method, I can also start with myself. In the martial arts world, work points have become cultivation talents. Are there any suitable partner skills or attributes that can be used to help me improve my physical fitness?"

"As for the affix, it depends on whether the physical attributes correspond to defense or endurance... It's most likely endurance. Mian Youyou has the affix 'Iron Wall Strategist.' If it corresponds to defense, I should be able to circulate my internal energy two more times when I was practicing internal energy."

"Among the stamina stats, the highest bonus is 'perpetual motion machine,' which can increase stamina by 75%, but you need to ride a Palu to receive this bonus."

"It seems that the next stage is to unlock as many rideable Palu as possible to obtain more attribute bonuses."

"In that case, the technology point gap will be huge! Not only do we need to unlock the Palu equipment crafting station, but we also need to unlock various riding equipment. At the same time, the higher the level of the rideable Palu, the more crafting materials are needed to create the riding equipment phantom, and the longer the crafting time will be..."

Cha Nan suppressed the myriad thoughts in her mind, closed her eyes, and breathed evenly, soon falling peacefully asleep.

······
At dawn, a cold wind blew in from outside the door and through the opening in the roof, and the aroma of hot porridge woke up the traveling merchants who had suffered from the cold all night.

Guo Xiang also sniffled a little, then slowly fluttered her long eyelashes and woke up from Cha Nan's shoulder.

Upon seeing the faint water stain on Cha Nan's shoulder, even though Guo Xiang was never one to mince words, she couldn't help but blush slightly. She furtively reached out, wanting to use her inner strength to try and evaporate the water stain on Cha Nan's shoulder to destroy the evidence!

"Don't move! Are you able to control your internal energy? Don't tear my clothes, or things will get complicated." Cha Nan suddenly opened her eyes and stared straight at Guo Xiang.

Suddenly, Guo Xiang's face turned even redder.

Her already large and adorable eyes widened, and she stammered, "I...I...you...!" Guo Xiang was, after all, a young girl. No matter how bold or uninhibited she was, she couldn't quite handle being hit so hard by Cha Nan.

Dark-skinned physical education students have always been terrifying; they can even silence a little girl who wants to beat them.

"Sister, calm down. You started it, I just didn't fight back!" Cha Nan's scumbag quotes came out without hesitation. First, make a non-stick pan to avoid being punched across time and space.

Then he said, "Alright! Go wash your face first. I'll handle the shoulder problem myself and won't tell anyone. Go get two bowls of millet porridge. I used it as your pillow all night, and I'm so hungry and my shoulder is really sore."

This is both warm and bad.

Many people mistakenly believe that the "badness" in "women don't love men who aren't bad" refers to making lewd jokes or being a scoundrel, but that's not the case.

Only widowed women enjoy being teased with lewd jokes; young girls certainly don't, at least not outwardly.

The main thing is to let go of your inhibitions, humble the other person, and restore them to their normal self.

If you really elevate the other party to the level of a 'god,' then you'll be looked down upon by others.
You, Guo Xiang, are indeed exceptionally talented, but am I, Cha Nan, not also a hero?
Cha Nan then employed a series of moves, first using a bit of badness to deepen the impression and make the other person realize that he is an aggressive man, and then making the other person give, so that they gradually feel the surprise and joy of 'giving'.

What kind of scumbag is a man who licks the boots of several women at the same time?
A man who is fawned over by several women at the same time is a real scumbag.

Of course, Cha Nan's painstaking efforts weren't because he was lusting after Guo Xiang's body... no! He was lusting after her, but not in the way people think.

To increase the capture rate of the Palu Ball, besides reducing the target's health to a sliver and then capturing it when it's low on health, there's another method: try to lower the target's guard as much as possible. When the target's guard is at its lowest point, the capture probability is also at its peak.

Now that it's been confirmed that Guo Xiang will be a good Palu, Chanan has no reason to let her go.

What the hell is this about showing tenderness and pity for women?

We dark-skinned athletes don't care about that; what we want is power and strength, and to develop it as much as possible.

Two bowls of millet porridge were quickly served. Cha Nan slurped them down, and soon finished half a bowl, feeling warm all over. She then began to praise Guo Xiang, as if she had cooked the millet porridge herself.

This involves providing emotional value, making the other person more accustomed to and enjoy giving.

Just as he was flirting with the young girl, several merchants who had just left the room rushed back, their faces still showing lingering fear.

Cha Nan put down the bowl in her hand, her heart sinking slightly.

"coming!"

"The true boss guarding this map!"

The previous Yun Zhonghe was essentially an unexpected addition.

The person who truly hunted down the three Guo siblings and slaughtered the entire Andu Old Shop was someone else entirely.

Although Cha Nan died in different ways each time in the martial arts world, he was always killed by the same person.
