Wizard: I brought the wrong system...

Chapter 578 Reading

Fortunately, aside from the initial shock, the subsequent descriptions are relatively neutral.

Claire, who had never read a book like this before, sometimes even felt that she was the 'Claire' who started from nothing and worked her way up to earn a baron title.

I watched him build a tall building, watched him entertain guests, and watched his building collapse.

Then... he settled down and returned to nature, content with the ordinary.

Unlike the real him, he was like a stray dog ​​that had been kicked hard, hiding in a corner, licking his wounds alone.

If Lord Yaro hadn't cleared away the shadow monsters in Perrin's territory, leaving him with no reason not to support the Earl's territory, he might still be hiding in Perrin Manor.

In this book, he saw Claire calmly facing those harsh taunts.

I saw Claire being knocked off a cliff by the wizard.

I saw that even in dire straits, Claire was still worried about the people at Perrin Manor.

I saw Claire bravely enduring her injuries and calmly surviving in the wilderness.

……

He didn't know if he could make the same choice if he actually encountered the situation described in the book.

As he read word by word, he gradually came to accept the "self" in the book.

He got absorbed in it.

His attention was focused on every word and phrase; his thoughts followed the words closely.

He was troubled and worried about Claire, tense when Claire encountered a poisonous snake, and overjoyed when Claire discovered martial arts on the stone slab.

Then, Claire finally saw the words left by the "Old Man Who Mending the Sky".

I saw the stone inscription left by the "Old Man Who Mending the Sky".

……

Good deeds are rewarded, and evil deeds are punished; isn't this the ultimate truth of heaven and earth?

Why is it that when I say this, everyone agrees, yet everyone laughs?

Is it really that funny?

[It wasn't until I met a robber that the mystery in my heart was solved.]

Before I knocked him down, he brandished his knife and yelled at me, "I've killed countless people. Retribution? If there really is one, then let him come!"

After I knocked him down, he said to me, "There is no such thing as good or bad karma in this world, only the strong and the weak. You are stronger than me, so I lost."

He believed in his reasoning and was willing to die; I believed in mine. So I said to him, "Good and evil are rewarded accordingly—this is a fundamental principle of Heaven and Earth. But Heaven and Earth are heartless; they need human compassion to replenish them. You have killed countless people, so your retribution is me."

[Before he died, he was still saying, "If you weren't stronger than me, could you have 'punished' me? Besides, there are countless people like me in this world, but there is only one you. How many people can you 'punish'?"]

I told him, "Where the Way leads, though there be thousands or millions, I will go."

……

"Where the Way leads, though there be thousands or millions, I will go."

Claire murmured repeatedly.

At this moment, he seemed to merge with the character 'Claire' in the book, fully experiencing the 'heart palpitations' described in the book.

Hear thunder in a silent place.

This sentence has that effect.

Moreover, the "Old Man Who Patches Up the Sky" in the book didn't just talk the talk; he actually took action.

……

Heaven and earth have no heart, but I will mend their heart with my own.

I created thirty-six martial arts techniques.

Martial arts: the art of stopping war.

Those who practice martial arts should punish evil and promote good, acting on behalf of Heaven...

I created a divine martial art called the "Heaven-Mending Technique".

[Divine skills are different from ordinary martial arts, and they do not have a clear offensive or defensive effect. However, if one masters a divine skill, ordinary martial arts become readily available.]

But this divine skill possesses its own true meaning, known as the "True Meaning of Martial Arts".

[Understanding the true meaning of martial arts, one's skills will advance by leaps and bounds]

[Violating the true meaning of martial arts will lead to "qi deviation," which can cause mild symptoms such as madness and loss of reason, or severe symptoms such as complete loss of martial arts skills, paralysis, or even death...]

……

The next day, at noon.

Yaro slept in late, a rare occurrence for him, and didn't come out until the sun was high in the sky.

At the entrance, Bevan was studying acupuncture points on a wooden anatomical model in the sunlight. His notebook was already full of writing, indicating that he had been studying for some time.

"Good morning, Bevin. Which acupoint are you checking?"

"Teacher Yaro?"

Bevin glanced back, then quickly stood up and replied, "I'm looking at the Tanzhong acupoint."

"The Tanzhong acupoint? Isn't that an acupoint on the arm related to the Blood Word Technique?" Yaro asked in surprise. "Didn't I tell you to memorize the acupoints for opening the dantian first?"

"The internal energy cultivation method only requires memorizing three acupoints to open the dantian. Teacher, you don't think I still can't remember three locations, do you?" Beiwen said resentfully.

Yaro said solemnly:

"Although the internal energy method for opening the dantian is simple, every position is very important. Moreover, you are preparing to use magic power to open the dantian. Once you make a mistake, there is no way to make up for it."

So don't underestimate opening up the dantian. Just remember three acupoints. Be sure to remember the location, orientation, height, and depth of those three acupoints from different directions.

The goal is to be able to easily locate those three acupoints even with eyes closed, and even to be able to directly determine the location of other acupoints by using different acupoints.

Bevin, can you do it now?

Although the system verified that magic power could indeed replace life force to open the dantian, once magic power is used, there is no going back. If any mistakes are made, there is basically no way to make up for them.

All Yaro could do was raise the bar for Bevin as much as possible.

Bevan could only obediently nod: "I understand, teacher. I will review the three acupoints for opening the dantian."

Yaro nodded, then asked in confusion:

"By the way, where's your father? Didn't I tell you I was taking him to the underground base today?"

"My father hasn't left the house yet; I don't know if he's still in bed," Bevan quickly explained.

"Still not up so late?"

Yaro frowned.

He stayed up too late last night to open up his dantian, which is why he got up so late today.

Claire is such a self-disciplined person, it's unlikely she would oversleep, right?

Could something have gone wrong?

Yaro had doubts, but he didn't show them on his face. He glanced at Bevin and said, "Then let's go take a look together."

If something unexpected were to happen, and Bevan witnessed it firsthand, there wouldn't be any misunderstanding.

"Yes, Professor Yaro," Bevan nodded in response.

The bedrooms were not far apart, and the two quickly arrived at Claire's bedroom.

Through the window, a faint candlelight could still be seen, though it was not very noticeable under the sunlight.

Yaro knocked on the door, and Claire's voice quickly came from inside.

Who is it?

"It's me, Yaro."

"Lord Yaro?"

A series of chaotic noises came from inside the room.

Soon, the door opened, and the blinding sunlight shone directly on Claire's slightly tired face.

But at this moment, his eyes were unusually bright.
