Ultraman's opening scene: lifting up Kuroshio Island

On the way back, Minghui tried several more times to recapture the feeling he had before.

Unfortunately, he never found that feeling again, and all his subsequent attempts ended in failure.

The price he paid was that the originally beautiful and well-shaped wooden stick was ruined beyond recognition.

"It can only be used for burning as fuel."

With a sigh of regret, Minghui tossed the wooden stick in his hand onto the pile of firewood in the corner.

"Oh, I found it!"

The monk with ten strings of cash walked out of the house with a smile on his face and a wooden samurai sword in his hand.

“Jiro kept asking for one, so I made him a few of these. I didn’t expect to be able to find them.”

After explaining to the two, the monk handed the wooden knife in his hand to Minghui.

"Here, try this!"

Minghui took the wooden knife and immediately felt it was very comfortable to hold, both in terms of weight and the feel of the handle.

This surprised him slightly; he hadn't expected the monk with ten strings of cash to have this ability.

Seeing the slightly expectant look in the monk's eyes, Minghui understood what he meant.

He lightly brandished the wooden knife in his hand a couple of times, his eyes searching the courtyard for a suitable target.

The flowers and plants on both sides of the house?

This won't do, Master Shi Guan will beat me.

A short tree in the center of the courtyard?

No, that won't work either. Master Shi Guan will beat me up, and the tree is too thin to provide any exercise benefits.

That tree outside the yard...

"Stop looking, use this!"

The monk's voice interrupted Minghui's thoughts. He turned his head and saw the monk carrying a piece of wood as he walked over.

Unlike the tree branches and trunks before, the wooden stake was as thick as a bowl.

Minghui remained silent as he looked at the section of the wooden stake.

Master Shi Guan, are you sure you can cut this thing in half with a wooden knife?

Holding the wooden knife, Minghui gestured at the wooden stake, but hesitated for a long time before actually striking it.

It wasn't that he couldn't bring himself to do it; he just didn't want to damage the wooden knife.

Such a fine-feeling knife shouldn't be hastily replaced with a wooden stick.

As if sensing Minghui's concerns, the monk with ten strings of cash patted his forehead and said, "This seems a bit too early for you, so let's use this for now."

As he spoke, he pulled out an axe from the side and handed it to Minghui.

Minghui took the axe from his hand and nodded in satisfaction. Then he returned the wooden sword to the monk with ten strings of cash, raised the axe with both hands, and smashed it down hard on the wooden stake.

An ax...

Two axes...

Three axe blows...

It took Minghui three axe blows to finally split the section of the wooden stake.

He glanced at the monk with ten strings of cash, who gestured with his chin toward the side: "Don't stop, there's more over there."

Minghui nodded, walked to the pile of firewood to the side, took out a piece of firewood, and raised the axe in his hand.

An ax...

Two axes...

Three axe blows...

Throughout the process, he kept adjusting his movements, which made his axe swings faster and more stable.

After chopping one piece of firewood, he would reach out and grab another. Gradually, he reduced the number of times he could chop a piece of firewood from three axe blows to two.

The firewood in the pile was getting less and less until Minghui reached out again, only to find nothing, and then he realized what was happening.

At that moment, the voice of the monk with ten strings of cash came.

"Minghui, I see you have a talent for swordsmanship. It just so happens that this old man has some experience in it. How about it, do you want to learn? I'll teach you."

Chapter 53 System! Give me some points!

Minghui had just recovered from the constant axe-wielding and was somewhat disoriented. Hearing the voice, he looked in the direction of the sound and saw the monk with ten strings of cash smiling at him.

He suddenly realized what the monk with ten strings of cash had just said, and quickly replied, "Of course I'm willing, please teach me, Master Shi Guan!"

Regardless of whether the monk with ten strings of cash is the King of Ultra, the fact that he is a highly accomplished person is undeniable, and Minghui certainly wouldn't refuse.

Moreover, unlike Feng Yuan, his human body can be continuously strengthened. After his human body becomes stronger, he also needs a way to unleash this power.

He felt that the path of kendo was good.

Who knows, later on, he might even get to enjoy slaying monsters with a sword!

Even putting all that aside, swordsmanship skills can also be applied to his Ultra Body, giving him a boost.

This wave, this wave is a complete victory!

"Well!"

Upon hearing Minghui's reply, the monk with ten strings of cash smiled and stroked his beard.

Minghui looked at him expectantly.

"Let's keep chopping firewood!"

Minghui: "Huh?"

"Only after mastering this can the teaching proceed to the next stage."

The monk with ten strings of cash offered an explanation.

"OK then."

Minghui understood what he meant, but looking at the chopped firewood scattered on the ground, he hesitated, "This..."

The monk nodded, gestured to the surrounding mountains covered with countless trees, and said lightly, "If you run out, just go outside and cut some. We lack everything here, except timber."

Minghui was speechless. Well, chopping wood had made his brain all muddled.

He looked around but didn't see Feng Yuan, so he asked, "Where's Feng Yuan?"

“Young Fengyuan has already left,” the monk with ten strings of cash turned around and walked into the house. “The kitchen has left you some food. Go and eat something first.”

It was only then that Minghui realized he was a little hungry. He thanked the monk who had given him ten strings of cash and then headed towards the kitchen.

Learning new skills is important, but filling your stomach is also a big deal!

After the meal, Minghui, carrying an axe and a basket on his back, ran excitedly out of Baiyun Temple.

As he passed by the mountain stream, he saw that Fengyuan was still practicing jumping across the stream. It was clear that he was making great progress and was already able to adjust his posture well. He estimated that it wouldn't be long before he would master the jump.

After glancing at Fengyuan from afar, Minghui did not disturb her.

He found a spot nearby, a place with dense woods, perfect for practicing.

"drink!"

With a soft shout, he swung his axe with tremendous force, the blow penetrating deep into the wood.

Minghui pulled out the axe and raised it high again.

Just then, a thought suddenly struck him.

With a thought, the system's light screen slowly unfolded in front of him.

Human: Minghui

Age: 23

Strength: D+

Speed: C-

Special Ability: D+

Looking at the words 'Special Abilities' on the system interface, Minghui fell into deep thought.

Compared to 'strength' and 'speed', this 'special ability' is somewhat difficult to understand.

Minghui had also studied it, and based on the other two points, he speculated that this one should be more inclined towards the spiritual aspect, but it might encompass more.

Since he didn't have any special abilities before, and based on practical considerations, he focused on strengthening his 'strength' and 'speed' attributes, and didn't pay attention to this 'special ability'.

However, he wants to try to strengthen it today.

If it is truly related to the spirit, then improving one's spirit should also increase one's understanding, right?

With a strong understanding, learning these new moves should be much easier!

A glint flashed in Minghui's eyes, and he immediately mobilized the cyan light spots in his consciousness space, investing them all into his 'special ability'.

He hadn't touched the blue light points he got from defeating Kendoros and Bekira, but now he could finally put them to good use!

As the cyan light was introduced, the system interface shone brightly, and the [D+] symbol after 'Special Ability' began to flash.

The symbol flashed faster and faster, and finally, at a certain moment, it changed into [C-]!

Minghui felt a 'boom' in his mind, and some unknown changes occurred.

His mind became clearer, and he felt that he could think much faster.

That's not all; the Ultra psychic power that had been unusable for a long time suddenly began to fluctuate and surge.

Minghui had a sudden thought and released the axe in his hand.

The next moment, the axe, having lost its support, began to fall, but before it could hit the ground, an invisible force appeared, lifted it up, and flew shakily into Minghui's hand.

Minghui's face lit up with joy; Ultraman's will had finally returned!
