I work as a security guard at a cemetery, and I overhear the dead chatting about getting rich quick.

When Jiang Dai was escorted back to the Seventh Division, it was already past 2 a.m.

The person has been arrested.

The spiritual energy nodes were also preserved.

But nobody thought it was a pretty good win.

Five other cities were simultaneously attacked by the Candle Shadow Society.

Of the seven newly formed spiritual energy nodes, two had their first batch of spirit crystals extracted first, and the three array materials were also completely dismantled.

It was clearly not a spur-of-the-moment decision.

They had been waiting for the second spiritual tide for a long time.

We're just waiting for the node to emerge.

In the conference room, Cheng Fang threw the last battle report onto the table.

"Did you understand?"

Tang Zhi leaned against the back of the chair.

"Did they know where the node would be before we did?"

"not necessarily."

Qin Zhao shook his head.

"It's more like they threw people away prematurely."

"Wherever a discovery is made, people nearby go directly there."

Xu Mian sat in the corner and added a sentence in a low voice.

"They have a lot of people now."

That hit the nail on the head.

In the past, the candlelight would be hidden.

Limited number of people allowed.

The actions were also focused.

Things are different now.

After the second spiritual tide, they clearly began to absorb new awakened individuals on a large scale.

Even if only one out of ten people is usable.

Spreading it out is quite a hassle.

Cheng Fang looked at Lin Ye.

"How's the investigation going with Jiang Dai?"

"He didn't say anything."

The person in charge of the interrogation shook his head.

"They only acknowledge that this operation was a temporary order."

"He won't say who ordered it."

Tang Zhi scoffed.

"Still being stubborn."

Lin Ye asked, "Where's the phone?"

"It has been handed over to the technical team."

"Several of the encrypted groups inside are one-time channels."

Whether we can uncover it or not depends on the technical team.

Cheng Fang closed the file.

"Alright."

That's all for today.

Tang Zhi immediately stood up.

"Finally, I can sleep."

Cheng Fang looked at her.

"You stay and write a record of the scene."

Tang Zhi stopped in her tracks.

Why?

"You smashed three walls."

"That's fighting."

"Jiang Dai wasn't even standing there on one side."

"..."

Qin Zhao walked by and patted her on the shoulder.

Write it down.

"roll."

Lin Ye did not return to the dormitory.

He went to the underground containment area.

According to the new agreement.

If you have real-world experience, then share it with all living beings.

This is not a task report.

He only talked about how he played.

There were several people in the warehouse.

Jiang Daihui's body techniques.

They borrow spiritual energy through formations.

After the Small Heavenly Circuit accelerated, the speed suddenly increased dramatically.

This was the first time I successfully blocked the opponent's path using the "flow-cutting technique".

Find the air exchange point the second time.

Interruptions were repeated.

Finally, it was renamed Broken Pulse.

All spirits listened from beginning to end.

I didn't interrupt.

After Lin Ye finished speaking, we waited for a long time.

"How is it?"

"rotten."

"..."

"Where's the damage?"

"you."

Lin Ye was delighted.

"I won."

"Did you win that?"

Wanling scoffed.

"There are people blocking your way in front, people holding your side, and people watching from behind with firearms from your era."

"You're just responsible for finding opportunities to tap it a couple of times."

Lin Ye leaned back in his chair.

"Teamwork."

"I know."

Wanling said, "That's why I didn't say you fought badly."

I said you're rotten.

"..."

Lin Ye understood.

"Be specific."

"You can't stick to people."

Lin Ye didn't say anything.

That statement is indeed very accurate.

Once Jiang Dai truly unleashed his full power, he couldn't catch up at all.

If it weren't for Qin Zhao's burning fire forcing him into position, Tang Zhi's silk-like blocking of the way, Cheng Fang's head-on confrontation, and Xu Mian's gun pressing down on him...

Lin Ye wanted to insert the two fingers that severed the pulse, but it wasn't that easy.

Wanling continued:

"Your ears are good enough for you now."

"Can be heard through the cracks."

"My hands can barely keep up."

"But what if someone doesn't let you touch them at all?"

Lin Ye recalled Jiang Dai's several changes of direction.

"so what?"

"So I learned to run."

"..."

"Is there a nicer way to put it?"

"Body movement techniques."

"That's more like it."

Wanling snorted.

"In the past, when our Beast Taming Sect chased spirit beasts, without some skill in footwork, we couldn't even touch their backsides."

"There's a set of footwork techniques."

"Nine Steps to Swimming"

Lin Ye sat up a little straighter.

"Nine steps?"

"It's just a name."

"It's not like you'll become an immortal by taking nine steps."

"There are only three core things."

"To settle down."

"Shift your center of gravity."

"A burst of spiritual energy."

Wanling had the researcher bring over a simple training board.

Nine landing points were quickly set off from above.

The location is irregular.

It's in all directions, front, back, left, and right.

"first step."

"Don't run away."

Lin Ye stepped up.

"Then what?"

"fall."

"What?"

"Reverse forward."

Lin Ye doubted that he had heard correctly.

"Are you teaching body movement or wrestling?"

"Just let it fall."

The forest didn't move.

All spirits are impatient.

"Are all modern people this indecisive?"

The forest leaned forward.

The center of gravity is above the toes.

The body begins to lose its balance.

Just as I was about to take that step.

All spirits spoke.

"Left foot."

Lin Ye instinctively stepped out.

"It's too late."

boom.

My forehead almost hit a soft wall.

Lin Ye, hold on.

"Where is it late?"

"Think first, then act."

"If a real fight breaks out, people will already be dead."

The Way of All Spirits:

"The Nine Steps of Swimming" doesn't mean you have to see the location before you step on it.

"It's a shift in your center of gravity, and your foot goes over."

"Spiritual energy is only responsible for that final push."

Lin Ye stood up straight again.

Pour it again.

The center of gravity has just shifted.

Step out with your left foot first.

Stay calm.

"and then?"

"continue."

right.

Left rear.

Diagonally forward.

Each time, it wasn't a big leap forward.

It even looks a little strange.

It's like your body is always about to lose its balance, only to be caught by the next foot.

I practiced for half an hour.

Lin Ye's forehead began to sweat.

It's not that I'm tired.

It's awkward.

In the past, when I ran, my legs carried my body.

Now it's exactly the opposite.

The body goes first.

He chased after her with his legs.

Wanling is still finding fault.

"My back is too stiff."

"Don't turn your shoulder first."

"You're running, not bowing to people."

Lin Ye stepped on the wrong spot again.

"If you shut up, I might be faster."

"If I shut up, you'll be trapped in the wall."

They practiced for another ten minutes or so.

Lin Ye finally found his footing.

My body tilted to the right.

His left foot landed first to the side and behind.

Spiritual energy exploded under the feet.

boom!

Suddenly, the person was moved more than two meters to the side.

It happened so fast that even Lin Ye was taken aback.

Wanling didn't praise it.

"This is only the first step."

"Nine steps still?"

"You should learn one first."

Lin Ye glanced at the ground.

That last moment.

His movements are very similar to Jiang Dai's.

But it's different.

Jiang Dai's approach is more of a straight-line burst.

The nine steps of swimming are like constantly shifting one's center of gravity.

As long as you can catch it with your feet.

The direction can be changed at any time.

He suddenly felt a little dizzy.

"Again."

Aren't you going to sleep?

"Not sleepy."

Who just yawned?

You misheard me.

"Although I have no ears, I am not deaf."

Lin Ye ignored it.

Keep practicing.

The second hour.

He was finally able to perform three consecutive changes.

before.

Left.

Right rear.

When the third step landed, the body hadn't even fully stabilized before the next burst of energy followed.

Swish!

Lin Ye walked around the training stakes.

A palm strike to the back.

The sound wasn't loud.

The location was accurate.

He laughed first.

What is the biggest problem with a broken pulse?

I can't reach it.

just now.

We're starting to find a solution.

Wanling asked lazily:

"Feeling good?"

"A little."

"That's bookkeeping."

Lin Ye's smile vanished.

"What bill?"

"Cultivation Techniques"

"Isn't the tutorial included in the new trading session?"

"Basic teaching"

"Isn't this basic?"

"Movement techniques are a separate matter."

"..."

Lin Ye walked over and took a picture of the sealed box.

"You really don't want to suffer any loss."

"Same to you."

Just then.

The work terminal rang.

4:12 AM.

Southeast District.

This is the third robbery in a row.

The suspect's identity is unknown.

There is only one common feature.

fast.

The first one.

A 24-hour jewelry store.

The alarm had just gone off when the person on the surveillance camera had already disappeared.

The second incident.

Bag snatching on the street.

The victim only saw a dark shadow.

The third case was even more outrageous.

The suspect snatched the evidence bag in front of two patrol officers.

By the time people reacted...

They've already run a whole street.

Lin Ye opened the surveillance camera.

In the picture.

A man wearing a hat walked past the entrance of the convenience store.

Only a few blurry afterimages remain.

Lin Ye stared for two seconds.

The spirits inside the box asked:

"Task?"

"Um."

"Who is it?"

Lin Ye put the terminal away.

"The one that runs fast."

Wanling laughed.

"What a coincidence."

Lin Ye picked up his coat.

He took two steps, then stopped again.

"Oh, right."

"What's wrong?"

"The debt of nine steps of swimming."

"We'll settle this after I catch him."

Why?

Lin Ye pushed open the door.

"Let's see if it's worth anything."
