This martial god is too extreme.

Chapter 3: A Springboard to the Truth of Martial Arts

The sun sets and the clouds gradually disperse.

Only the senior year students were left in the entire academy. Green Ivy Academy encouraged students to study "independently", and students who were about to take the college entrance examination were required to "take the initiative" to attend evening classes.

Especially the students in the key classes, they have to "actively" study until 10 o'clock in the evening. However, after what happened just now, Su Tu was not in the mood to continue studying. After asking for leave from the teacher, he left the school.

When I got home, the clean living room was empty.

Su Tu has a happy family in this life. His mother is an employee of an interstellar company and his father is an exploration scientist. However, they are often away on business trips, so Su Tu is alone at home most of the time.

He threw his schoolbag on the sofa, and then the system panel appeared in front of him.

[Fighting (Basic): 100/300]

[Strengthening the body (beginner): 160/300]

【Cooking (Basic): 200/300】

[Spiritual Wisdom (Intermediate): 140/1000]

[Taoism (beginner): 10/300]

[Skill points: 6]

Every time Su Tu acquires a new skill or upgrades a skill, he will gain a skill point, but it cannot be added to his existing skills. Therefore, he did not care too much about the skill point he just gained.

His main attention was focused on the new skill he had just acquired.

"How can I improve my proficiency in the skill of Cai Dao?" Su Tu thought thoughtfully.

The definition of skills in the system panel is very objective, just like he activated fighting by learning Zhengquan, but Zhengquan was not classified as a skill, but a fighting method and technique, just like knowledge such as mathematics and physics.

They are all ways to improve skill proficiency, but this method does not have any way to improve proficiency.

Because he activated this skill just by seeing a painting, and he didn't master any techniques from it.

Therefore, there is no way to improve the proficiency of Guan Dao.

"This skill of Cai Dao must be very important. It may even be a stepping stone for me to get in touch with the 'truth' of martial arts. Moreover, it can improve spiritual wisdom and strengthen the body at the same time. It is also very cost-effective. I must research a way to improve its proficiency as soon as possible."

Su Tu had long discovered that the improvement in proficiency was not single-minded. Just like his regular boxing training during the day, while improving his fighting proficiency, he also improved his physical fitness proficiency. This was because fighting itself also required physical movement, and the two skills complemented each other.

However, Cai Dao can improve the proficiency of two skills at the same time, and the cost-effectiveness is not too high.

"Could it be the painting from the daytime?" Su Tu suddenly thought of the scroll that activated the Cai Dao skill.

"Wait, there seems to be nothing on that painting!!"

He recalled that memory again, but was surprised to find that in his memory, the painting hanging on the wall was a blank piece of paper! !

But what he saw at that time
Before Su Tu could think deeply, the blank picture in his memory began to emit bursts of precious light, as if it were the early morning.

next moment!
He actually appeared again in that wonderful scene. The Black Mountain under his feet was shaking, the green snake on the top of the mountain was roaring, the tiger was crawling and killing, and the two moons were lonely in the same sky.

Looking at everything around him, an inexplicable feeling was rising in his heart. He breathed in a special rhythm, a force surged in his body, and rays of light appeared around him.

This time he lasted longer than during the day, about half a minute, his breathing paused, the rhythm of his breathing was interrupted, and then everything around him dissipated.

When he woke up again, he was sweating profusely and felt sticky and uncomfortable. He reached out and wiped his hand, and found some black substance on it, which had a fishy smell.

"Hey, what is this?" Su Tu couldn't stand this feeling and hurried into the bathroom to take a shower.

[You have completed a mining operation, mining proficiency +10]

[Taoism (beginner): 20/300]

Su Tu was taking a shower while looking at the prompt in front of him, frowning slightly.

"This time, my spiritual wisdom and physical strength didn't improve at the same time. Could it be that the first improvement is a benefit for novices?"

Su Tu was thinking in a mess that this time of practicing Taoism did not improve his spiritual wisdom or strengthen his body, but instead caused some black dirt to be discharged from his body.

Su Tu felt that his five senses had become sharper, and his eyes, which had been somewhat short-sighted, had become clearer. He looked out the window and could even see a caterpillar wriggling on the pine tree downstairs.

"My body has transformed" Su Tu felt the changes in himself.

"Could it be that the effect of Cai Dao is to allow my body to continuously transform and improve?"

Su Tu was thinking about the black substance that had just been discharged from his body. That thing looked very much like the impurities that were discharged from the body of the protagonist in his previous life's novel.

If that's the case, then this skill is incredible!
After this experience, Su Tu mastered the method of Cai Tao, which is to imagine the scene of the painting and then enter into it, but it is extremely energy-consuming.

He tried that special breathing method in reality, but he couldn't maintain that rhythm at all. He could only maintain it in that illusion.

Su Tu just wanted to try to enter the temple again, but he couldn't imagine the scene in the scroll. Obviously, his energy was not enough to support him to observe the temple again.

"I originally wanted to take a break and use the Tao to improve my physical strength and spiritual wisdom, but now it seems that I still have to take one step at a time."

"My academic performance is good enough. I will set a small goal in the next period of time. First, I will improve my physical fitness and fighting skills to the intermediate level. This way, even if martial arts are included in the college entrance examination, I will have some confidence!"

Su Tu thought about it for a while and set his goal.

I changed into a black sportswear and went out.

After putting on headphones and turning on random play, Su Tu stretched a little, chose a direction and started running.

The moonlight was hazy, the evening breeze was rising, and the young man was running under the moon, as if he was pursuing heaven.

at the same time.

The woman who had just finished her night shift was walking with a tired look on her face.

She worked half a day today and was almost taken advantage of by a stupid client, but ended up signing a small order.

For an order worth 130,000 yuan, she could only get a commission of 300 yuan, which was so devastating that even cows and horses would cry.

"I really don't want to live anymore. I've had enough of living!" The woman complained. She didn't know how many times she had said this, but it was just a complaint. Life is a millstone that never stops. If they are a step slower, these beans will be ground into powder.

Her parents are already old, and she has a younger brother at home waiting for her to take care of him. She can’t say that she is afraid of death, but she dares not die.

The evening breeze was a little chilly. The woman couldn't help but hug her shoulders tightly and quicken her pace. For some reason, she had been feeling like a thorn in her back since a while ago.

"Really?" A voice suddenly sounded, and the sound was like a cat's claws scratching across a blackboard, hoarse and harsh.

"Who, who is there!!" the woman said in horror, with goose bumps all over her body.

She looked around but didn't see anyone.

"I've been under too much pressure lately and I've been having auditory hallucinations." The woman rubbed her temples and quickened her pace.

But the next moment!!!
A slippery feeling suddenly spread all over her body. A dark figure appeared behind her and instantly held her in his arms. Large pieces of mud fell on the ground. A pair of wet hands covered her mouth tightly, making her unable to make any sound. She could only stare with eyes wide open in fear and helplessness.

The handbag fell weakly to the ground, the cosmetics were scattered all over the floor, and a hoarse voice sounded next to her ear.

"If you've really had enough of living, lend me your life."

The dim street lights flickered, and the woman's bones were squeezed by unimaginable force. Finally, her whole body was like a puddle of mud, being rubbed into the body by the figure.

The creepy chewing sound, crunching in the shadows, was chilling.

"The smell of hairless monkeys is really disgusting. If I hadn't consumed too much energy and blood coming to this planet, I wouldn't even look at this weak food."

The distorted figure gradually condensed into a tall figure under the light, with fish-like gills on the face and red eyes oozing muddy liquid.

He suddenly looked at the corner not far away, the red light in his eyes became brighter, and a few drops of saliva unconsciously seeped out of the corners of his mouth.

"The blood and qi are full. I didn't expect that the ancestral planet of hairless monkeys has such delicious food."

The saliva dripped onto the ground, making a sizzling sound and corroding the cement floor into several small pits.

The street lights flickered, and the twisted figure disappeared without a trace, leaving only a small makeup bag on the ground, as if it had been left behind.
A young man in black sportswear happened to turn the corner at this moment, and his figure was a little hazy in the night.
