The Great Qin: Starting with marrying Jingni, I began my quest for immortality.

The move she used yesterday was something she taught Jiang Chuan in order to deliberately make things difficult for him.

She didn't expect Jiang Chuan to be able to learn it.

Unexpectedly, a day later, Jiang Chuan suddenly ran up to her and said that he had learned it.

Jiang Chuan said somewhat embarrassedly, "It's hard to say that I've learned it. Although I do have the secret of that sword technique in my mind, it's very difficult to execute. As soon as I was about to use it, I found that my blood and qi surged throughout my body, and then suddenly I was depleted... My legs started to go weak."

Upon hearing this, Ru Shuang raised her eyebrows slightly.

She placed the child she was holding on the bed for the time being and said to Jiang Chuan, "Give me your arm."

"what?!"

Jiang Chuan was slightly taken aback, but then obediently offered his arm to Ru Shuang.

The other person grabbed his wrist.

Jiang Chuan immediately felt a warm current flow into his body.

A warm current circulated through his body.

After Jiang Chuan finally got used to the rhythm, Ru Shuang released his wrist again.

“Your body is indeed experiencing some problems, and I roughly know what’s going on.”

"According to what you said, you mastered that sword, that sword move, which is not an ordinary sword move. Even I have to use my full strength to execute it. Although you have learned the Heavenly Net Sword Technique, you have not cultivated internal energy. Therefore, when you activated that sword, the internal energy that should have been used to activate the power of that sword turned into blood essence."

"Huh? Will I develop any hidden health problems? After all, a deficiency of vital essence and blood doesn't seem like a good thing."

Ru Shuang said to Jiang Chuan, "Don't worry, there shouldn't be any hidden ailments. Fortunately, you stopped that move in time, so apart from a moment of agitation, your blood and qi are fine. After a few days of rest, you should be able to recover."

"However, I am truly surprised that you were able to learn that move."

Ru Shuang is not usually a talkative person, but this time, she was genuinely shocked, which is why she talked so much with Jiang Chuan.

Regardless of whether Jiang Chuan was playing a trick on her or trying to amuse her yesterday.

She was now certain that Jiang Chuan was a once-in-a-million swordsmanship prodigy.

Even with that move, Jiang Chuan still learned it in a very short time.

It should be noted that it took her a very long time to master that sword technique, and the first time she used it was in a life-or-death crisis.

What about Jiang Chuan?

He learned it after just watching me demonstrate it once.

The fact that Jiang Chuan did not fully unleash the sword technique was not because he lacked mastery of it, but because he did not understand internal energy cultivation.

"Originally, I thought you were too old, and even if you practiced martial arts, it would be difficult for you to achieve anything. So, I only planned to teach you some sword moves, so that you would understand some sword techniques and have some self-defense capabilities, which would be enough."

"After all, cultivating internal strength is a very time-consuming process."

"But now, I feel it's time to teach you the inner strength."

Jiang Chuan's expression gradually became serious.

He never expected that simply coming here to ask Ru Shuang for advice would yield such a reward.

He said sincerely to Ru Shuang, "Please give me your guidance."

Ru Shuang wasn't one to procrastinate. Since the topic of internal energy cultivation had come up, she immediately began teaching Jiang Chuan his internal energy cultivation techniques.

"Internal strength begins with breathing techniques... Through breathing exercises, one draws the power of heaven and earth into the body. Then, using the power of heaven and earth, one cultivates one's own internal energy. The internal energy, with the help of the power of heaven and earth, gradually grows stronger, circulating endlessly. This is what is known as internal strength..."

Chapter Eleven: The Setting Sun Awaits Your Return

As night fell, Jiang Chuan once again entered the misty space while asleep.

A figure sat cross-legged, and as he breathed, a faint mist rose from his body. It seemed that he was practicing internal energy cultivation. After he finished, as the mist dissipated, many secrets about internal energy cultivation flooded into Jiang Chuan's mind.

He also gained a deeper understanding of the function of that mysterious space.

All the martial arts knowledge he acquired during the day would be manifested in this space at night, operated by the figure that looked exactly like him, and then fed back to him in reality, allowing him to easily master that knowledge.

Such good fortune left Jiang Chuan in awe, and naturally, it gave rise to many ambitions.

He was already quite old when he started practicing martial arts.

According to Ru Shuang, once one's physical constitution is set, it is impossible to become a master.

But now it seems that may not be the case.

With the help of that mysterious golden finger, he could master those exquisite sword techniques overnight. Even the sword strike that Ru Shuang unleashed at the end, which was almost the Dao, was something he could master. However, he was unable to execute it because he lacked internal energy.

Perhaps he can become a master.

Yesterday, the internal energy cultivation method taught by Ru Shuang was demonstrated by the figure in the misty space, and many of its profound mysteries appeared in Jiang Chuan's mind.

He followed those key principles and practiced the method of internal energy cultivation.

Suddenly, I sensed something different.

Between heaven and earth, there seemed to be tiny spirits, like dust filling the air. With each breath Jiang Chuan took, some of them entered his nose and then his body.

As sand accumulates and forms a sea, more and more dust and smoke flow into the rivers and streams.

These things, similar to smoke and dust but much finer, should essentially be called the power of heaven and earth. They formed a wisp of air within Jiang Chuan's body, which followed Jiang Chuan's will and nourished his body wherever it passed.

The damage to my body caused by forcing myself to use that sword yesterday has actually recovered a little during the process.

It must be said that the mysterious space was indeed outrageous. With the help of that space, Jiang Chuan mastered the method of internal energy cultivation in just one night.

According to the methods of internal energy cultivation, he has already developed a sense of Qi.

However, even so.

After circulating his inner cultivation technique for half a day, Jiang Chuan still couldn't help but sigh.

"Having the method is one thing, but turning it into power is still extremely difficult."

After practicing his internal energy cultivation method, Jiang Chuan also realized a major drawback of that space.

That space would allow him to easily master various skills.

However, all that was mastered was technique.

It cannot increase Jiangchuan's internal strength out of thin air.

Jiang Chuan is only familiar with internal energy cultivation methods; he still needs to accumulate internal strength on his own.

Because of his advanced age, his physical structure is already set, and his internal meridians are not yet developed and are extremely narrow. The efficiency of the power of heaven and earth flowing through them is extremely slow. Therefore, the process of simply drawing the power of heaven and earth into his body and refining himself is an extremely long one.

"Perhaps there will be other solutions in the future."

Jiang Chuan thought to himself.

Although he felt the difficulty of cultivating internal energy, he did not give up.

Time flies, and several days have passed in the blink of an eye.

The day for the corvée labor, as announced by the village chief, has arrived.

Even if Jiang Chuan wanted to practice martial arts, since he lived here, many things were unavoidable.

After giving Ru Shuang some instructions, he took his tools and went out.

Ru Shuang had been living with him for some time, and the two were quite familiar with each other.

She watched Jiang Chuan leave, signaling to him not to worry about her and her daughter.

Afterwards, Jiang Chuan went to the village entrance to gather.

The old village chief had been waiting here for a long time.

Upon seeing Jiang Chuan, he immediately revealed a strange smile.

Jiang Chuan knew what he was thinking; he was simply thinking about the relationship between himself and Ru Shuang.

However, since there were outsiders present, he ultimately did not go looking for trouble with the old village chief.

After all the able-bodied men in the village had arrived, there were about several dozen people.

The old village chief led them slowly to a ditch not far from the village. This ditch was located near the mountain, and earlier, heavy rains had caused a landslide, blocking the ditch.

With the irrigation season fast approaching and the weather clearing up in the last few days, the old village chief has gathered the able-bodied men in the village to repair the irrigation ditches.

Repairing ditches is not a complicated process.

It was just digging.

Because they live very close to the village, they can go back home every night.

Of course, it won't work at noon.

Around noon, they usually eat the dry food they carry with them.

Jiang Chuan had done this kind of work several times in the past year or so. Since he had transmigrated to this world and become a villager in the mountains and a farmer, he shouldn't think about living a life of luxury. So, he had long been used to this kind of life.

The day's work has come to an end.

By the time he got home, it was already evening, the sky was dark, and the sun was about to set.

He assumed that Ru Shuang was already resting with the child, so he didn't bother her.
