Clinging to the Witcher world to become a god of martial arts

Back at my residence.

Facing the somewhat empty room, Lorne opened the panel and flipped to "Nine Appearances of the Wandering Dragon".

In the coming period, he planned to cultivate the Heavenly River True Qi to the next stage and master the Nine Manifestations of the Wandering Dragon.

It is worth mentioning that after learning about the existence of anchor points and the transformation method, the progress of the pioneering point officially entered the next stage.

[Expansion Points: 1] [Progress: 15.7% (4.3% until next stage)]

This will make up for the cost of redeeming "Nine Dragons".

[Attribute Points: 1]

With one attribute point left, Lorne sat down cross-legged and casually added it to his mental attribute.

With attribute points reset to zero, the Spirit stat on the panel jumps from 11 to 12.

[Attributes: Constitution 9, Strength 9, Agility 9, Spirit 12, Magic 0]

A sharp pain exploded in his mind, and Lorne's mental sea fluctuated violently.

Without the restraining effect of the stabilizing wrist, the surface of the small lake lost its smoothness and began to churn and surge like a pot of water about to boil.

Huge bubbles kept rising from the center of the lake, and the speed was getting faster and faster.

"Bang!"

Streams of water shot into the sky, converging into towering waves, as if trying to forcefully break through the boundaries of the spiritual sea.

Lorne curled up on the ground in agony, his body shaped like a shrimp.

The dim light inside the room transformed into scorching steel needles, piercing deep into the eyes.

At the edge of vision, black shadows spread like stains.

The veins under his temples throbbed wildly, and a tendon stretched taut from the back of his neck all the way to his forehead, tightening like a shackle.

Stabilizing Bracelet... Lorne realized the function of the stabilizing bracelet. The pain from the last mental sea expansion was at least dozens of times less than this time!

He vowed to himself, "I'll get it back sooner or later!"

The lake gradually calmed down, and the small lake expanded a little more than before.

The pain slowly subsided.

Lorne collapsed to the ground, his chest heaving as he greedily swallowed air.

Currently, attribute points must be allocated to Spirit; allocating them to Strength, Constitution, and Agility is simply a waste.

High-level wizards can transform into "vessels," at which point the physical body will lose its meaning unless one follows the path of bloodline and body refinement, in which case the physical body will be of use.

However, his potential is not as high as that of a sorcerer. If possible, Lorne is prepared to pursue the latter path and incorporate martial arts into it.

This way, the panel's function can be maximized, and its potential can be further enhanced.

However, he wouldn't try adding points rashly again. Expanding his mental sea was too painful. He would wait until he could exchange merits for a solution.

There was a knocking sound coming from the door, which meant that the furniture they had bought had arrived.

Wiping the sweat from his face, Lorne got up wearily, walked to the door, and opened it.

The staff member responsible for the home visit took out a jade bed, a jade table, and a simple rune drawing table from the storage ring and arranged them in the room.

The empty room originally had a residential feel to it.

"This is a free gift." The staff member placed the carpet on the ground at the entrance and then took out a round compass and hung it on the wall.

The compass needle is used to display the time; there are twelve periods in a day.

After settling all the items, the staff member left Lorne's residence.

Looking at the fully functional and brand-new interior, Lorne nodded in satisfaction.

After a quick shower in the bathroom, he lay down on the jade bed and began studying "The Nine Manifestations of the Wandering Dragon".

Although it is made of jade, it does not feel cold at all. On the contrary, the smooth, mirror-like surface of the bed emits a slight warmth and a gentle touch.

After a preliminary look, Lorne gained a certain understanding of this movement technique.

"Nine Appearances of the Wandering Dragon" is a movement technique that emphasizes "change". The first stage is "Hidden Dragon, Do Not Use", which represents the entry level.

To get started, you not only need to spend time practicing the movements, but it's also a process of refinement, affecting the body, breath, and mind.

"Accumulate its strength and nurture its will; the dragon lies dormant in the abyss, waiting for the right time to strike."

The first step is the cultivation of mental techniques and artistic conception, which requires nurturing the dragon's intent and comprehending the power and form of the divine dragon lurking in the abyss.

It's somewhat similar to visualization, and it shares similarities with the star visualization when cultivating the Heavenly River True Qi. Lorne, who has a solid grasp of the "Black Sun Meditation Method," doesn't find this step too difficult.

The second step is the cultivation of basic body techniques and physical strength. Practicing the prototype of Dragon Stance and Swimming Dragon Step in a complex environment is the stage of forging the dragon bone.

There's definitely no way to practice in a small room; I guess we'll have to go to the Wizard Tower's simulation practice room.

The final step is to integrate the circulation of true qi with body movements, simulating the state and momentum of a divine dragon lurking in the abyss.

Lorne is troubled by the fact that there are certain basic requirements and mental requirements for entering the program.

While one's temperament is relatively easy to manage, the fundamental requirement is to cultivate internal energy, generate true qi within the body, and circulate it through the meridians in a microcosmic orbit.

The Heavenly River True Qi is still at the stage of "Qi Guiding Stars and Circulation". Only by entering the next stage can the True Qi circulate along the meridians in the Small Heavenly Circuit.

Before cultivating the "Nine Manifestations of the Wandering Dragon," one must first advance the Heavenly River True Qi, which is somewhat troublesome.

But we have to meet this requirement.

Then let's practice!

Lorne took out two bottles of Star Tears from the Moonlight Bag and changed the martial art displayed on the panel from Nine Dragons of the Wandering Dragon to Heavenly River True Qi.

After reviewing the contents, he was about to drink the Tears of the Stars and begin his cultivation when the Wizard Token emitted a faint fluctuation.

It seems the commission you posted has been accepted by someone else...

With a thought, Lorne took out the wizard's token from the moonlight bag and put his mental energy into it to examine it.

Instead of the expected answers to the three questions, it turned into bargaining.

The general idea is that the achievements are too few to answer the first two questions. As for the reasons for the war between the Black Sun Tower and the Forest of Fireflies, these achievements are insufficient to know.

After all, this is information that only the higher-ups of the Black Tower would know.

The commission cannot be adjusted at the Wizard's Token; you must go to the Starry Hall and use the floating crystal pillar to change it.

Lorne felt it was good to first gain a basic understanding of the wizarding forces by acquiring 0.5 merit points, and he could ask for the third question later when he went to the Star River Hall.

So he sent the message "Good" into it.

Soon after, detailed answers about the forces surrounding the Black Sun Tower, as well as a brief overview of the wizarding forces within the Kingdom of Seville, were conveyed from the wizard's token.

There are about a dozen legitimate wizarding factions within the Kingdom of Seville, all of which possess a certain scale and influence.

Among them, the Black Sun Tower, the Mysterious Star Ring, and the Seed of Calamity are first-rate wizarding forces, while there are about eight to nine other second-rate wizarding forces, such as the Forest of Fireflies.

Many of these were temporary or small-scale wizarding settlements.

The Black Sun Tower is located in the southeast corner of the Kingdom of Seville, adjacent to the Forest of Fireflies, with its location situated vertically.

Also located in the southeast corner are two second-rate wizarding factions, but they are some distance from the Black Sun Tower.

Named Silver Scales and Raven's Nest, they are located on the northeast and south sides of the Black Sun Tower, respectively.
