Republic of China Era: Entering the Dao through Divine Strike.

[Physical Constitution] represents qualities such as strength, endurance, immunity, and sturdiness;

Agility represents qualities such as speed, dexterity, flexibility, and coordination.

The "spirit" aspect represents nerve response, thinking speed, sensitivity, and memory.

'No wonder I think so quickly, my aiming and drawing of a gun are even better than in my past life, and I can remember many minute events from both my past and present lives. I can even remember fairly clearly the books I casually memorized as a child.'

My gaze fell on those two points: [Faith Power].

'If you add these two points of faith to your physique, you will immediately have the physical strength of an ordinary adult young man.'

If I add faith power to agility, I should be able to run 100 meters in about ten seconds, which should be very useful for escaping pursuers.

But life isn't an exam.

Exams aim to cover all subjects, but to live a better life, you need the longest plank in the barrel.

By making your strengths even stronger, you can surpass many others and gain a first-mover advantage.

The key issue is that even if he increases his physique or agility, he still doesn't seem to be as strong as his older brother.

Now, if you're trying to escape, having a gun in your hand will give you a greater advantage in terms of nerve reflexes and telepathy.

'As long as I can sense the enemy in advance, as long as I can draw my gun quickly...'

After much deliberation, Li Xin finally made a decision.

With a thought, he pressed down hard.

The "Spirit" column became blurry, flickered twice, and then changed to 20.

Li Xin felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over his mind, and his whole body shivered.

I felt slightly dizzy for a moment, then quickly returned to normal.

Looking ahead, the deep, dark forest suddenly appeared much lighter in color.

The moonlight shimmered faintly through the gaps in the branches and leaves.

For the first time, my steps, which had been groping my way forward, became light and quick.

The sky is much brighter now.

Li Xin was deeply moved.

How can I describe this feeling?

Just like sometimes I dream about my childhood...

I felt like I was under the moonlight, running and playing freely in the wheat field and the fields.

Although it was night, the moonlight was so bright it was as if it were daytime.

He could see not only the stones and water in the fields, but also the unevenness on the road, the night birds flying up and down in the trees, the moon hanging high in the sky like a huge silver plate, and the excited smiles of every friend.

It's like a fairy tale.

The night before us was as if a curtain had been torn away, revealing a truly beautiful landscape.

He could hear the chirping of various tiny insects, and among the branches and leaves, he could see wriggling green caterpillars and crickets crawling out of the soil...

As Li Xin focused his mind, he made a surprising discovery.

A secret technique called "Spiritual Communication" appears after the "Spirit" section.

'Wow, what a pleasant surprise!'

'So, reaching 20 in a single stat unlocks a talent? Or perhaps a secret technique?'

Li Xin took a deep breath, silently chanted "Spirit Communication" in his mind, and looked to his left and right, but nothing had changed.

He turned to look at his older brother and younger sister.

My heart skipped a beat.

The elder brother and younger sister seemed to be enveloped in a layer of orange-red light, which looked soft and warm, making people feel warm and friendly.

What does 【orange-red】represent?

Is it intimacy, is it trust?

Thinking of the phrase "Because of love, faith arises; the mind is boundless" that he had seen in his mind, Li Xin had many more guesses.

We'll test this talent more slowly later.

Now, the mountains in front of him and the pursuers behind him can no longer hold him back.

The shouts and gunshots in the distance had gradually faded into the distance and were no longer clearly audible.

Once we cross this mountain, we'll reach the main road. If we run a few more miles under the cover of night, we should be out of danger.

……

"Ow..."

A sharp roar rang out not far from his side.

Li Cheng, who was running blindly and had lost his sense of direction, almost fell because his legs gave way.

Li Xiaoyue suddenly woke up with a start, her face full of terror.

"Wolf?"

In the mountains and forests, under the cover of night, there are naturally wolves.

Even though Li Xiaoyue was very young and grew up in a small village at the foot of the mountain, she must have heard this sound before. At this moment, upon hearing the wolf howl, the hairs on her body stood on end, and she remembered some stories that her parents had told her to scare her.

"Don't be afraid, the wolves are still far away. Let's get out of the forest."

Li Xin's five senses were extremely sharp at this moment.

I could already smell the fishy stench in the air.

Following the sound, one could even see a pair of menacing, emerald-green eyes a hundred meters away.

The wolf dangled far to his side.

Perhaps lacking confidence, they are calling on friends and acquaintances.

'Can you kill him from 100 meters?'

Li Xin gripped the revolver in his hand, somewhat lacking confidence.

It's not that I can't aim.

This is a design limitation of the pistol.

If you're too far away, even if you hit the target, the damage won't be that great.

Besides, he was also reluctant to waste bullets.

There are only six.

If you encounter an unavoidable crisis, six bullets mean six lives.

It's such a waste to use it on wolves.

'Either don't strike at all, or strike with deadly precision. There are too many obstacles in the woods, making it difficult to fire...'

The thought crossed my mind.

Li Xin turned and reached the edge of the forest.

He accelerated, dashing out of the woods and straight towards the main road...

"Big brother, you go first."

"I know the Mad Demon Staff Technique; two or three ordinary wolves can't do anything to me," Li Cheng said angrily.

He went along with his second brother on other matters, since his second brother was clever.

However, when it comes to fighting, one must never be cowardly.

"Can you even see it? Why are you fighting for it?"

Li Xin shook his head and chuckled, "I have a gun, you forgot?"

The group ran out onto the main road, panting heavily, as the two green lights behind them drew closer and closer.

Li Xin could even see a tuft of white fur on the wolf's black head.

In the distance, two or three blurry figures darted out of the woods and rushed towards them.

"Still chasing? You want to deliver meat to my door? Fine, I'll grant your wish."

He suddenly stopped in his tracks.

With a slight twist of his upper body, a gunshot rang out.

The black wolf, which was thirty meters behind, only let out a half-whimper, and a splash of blood appeared on its head.

He fell to the ground, twitched a few times, and then stopped moving.

"Another bullet gone."

Li Xin felt a pang of heartache, but decided to go all in and brazenly walked towards the wolf carcass.

Thinking to himself, if those wolves in the jungle get close, he'd just kill them all.

As a result, we waited for quite a while.

They noticed that the noise in the forest was getting quieter and quieter, and the wolves actually turned around and left.

"Was it scared away?"

Li Xiaoyue climbed out of the basket on her back, patted her chest, and exclaimed happily, "Second Brother is the best!"

"The gun is powerful, and these wolves are really cunning." Li Xin put away his pistol and laughed, "We're just about to get hungry. With this wolf, we can have a good meal."

"I'll handle it."

Li Cheng's eyes also lit up. He had gone hunting in the mountains with his elders and knew how to skin and gut wild animals.

“I’ll go gather some firewood. Let’s go to the slope by the river. Even if we start a fire there, it won’t be noticeable.”

Li Xin also felt a slight cramping in his abdomen, and he didn't know how long he had been hungry.

The thought of eating meat later made my mouth water.

"This body has never really eaten anything good."

After gathering firewood and starting a fire, Li Cheng had already skinned the wolf, thrown away its entrails, and was cutting the meat into pieces with the river water.

Xiaoyue would sometimes run to the fire to help tend it, and sometimes run to the river to watch her older brother wash meat, her thin little face full of smiles.

The danger she had felt earlier had quietly faded from her mind.

For those who are terrified of hunger, having meat to eat is more joyful than celebrating the New Year.

Li Xin let out a long sigh of relief and took out the items he had previously searched from Master Zhao.

Looking by the firelight.

This is a bright yellow silk book.

It feels smooth and solid in the hand, with many small characters written in ink and three pictures painted on it.

The words "Dongxuan Lingbao Three Caves Protector True Lord's Divine Power Method" are written in gold and silver strokes on it.

"Is this a divine martial arts manual, or perhaps a true Taoist secret?"

Li Xin was surprised.

In his previous life, he had a wide range of interests and looked at all sorts of things. He also knew a little about the "Three Caves of Dongxuan Lingbao" and knew that it was a lineage of the Shangqing School.

But weren't those things already proven to be superstition? Why does Master Zhao still treasure them like precious gems? Could it be that he can actually make a difference? Or is he just deceiving people?

At that moment, Li Xin looked closely and suddenly felt a sharp pain between his brows. A picture on the silk cloth struck him deeply.

……

Chapter Five: Self-Hypnosis, Divine Frequency

"Hmm, there's something strange about this picture."

Li Xin immediately recognized what kind of person was depicted in the first of the three paintings on the silk.
