Chapter 72: Chapter 62 Never Allow Yourself Not to Try Hard_1
In a gathering spot without any noticeable firearms, how has all the food been collected by a minority of people?
Of course, it is possible that some people have cunning and control, but since the special zombie crystal nucleus Li Ming obtained could transform ordinary people into mutants, then following this line of thought…
Doesn’t it mean that among humans who have not become zombies in the post-apocalyptic world, there may also be individuals who haven’t become zombies but have awoken abilities due to the erosion of mysterious forces?
Like the special cases among ordinary zombies?
When facing potential danger, Li Ming always considers the worst possibility. If there really are special mutants and their subordinates in this gathering spot, he needs to be cautious when approaching.
Correspondingly, the stronger he is, the more at ease he will feel.
“Whether it’s fishing, farming, rearing poultry or ploughing the fields and weeding, doing it all by myself would be too troublesome. Every day spent doing manual work is a wasted day. Improving my strength is important, but I can’t delay too long either. I can’t arrive there too late.”
The earlier these tasks start, the sooner he can get a basic survival guarantee.
After dinner, Li Ming pondered over it and decided to try his best to accelerate his training tomorrow.
After a short rest after eating, he helped Zhang Yuan take a bath, took a cold shower himself, then went to bed and held Zhang Yuan in his arms.
“Did you learn the method I taught?”
He whispered in Zhang Yuan’s ear.
“Yes, I’m ready…”
“……”
After bathing the two and then carrying Chen Li back to her bedroom to rest, he returned to the bathtub, lifted Zhang Yuan out, dried her, and held her like a doll in his arms.
“Husband, we can continue tomorrow, I want to sleep now.”
The demands of cultivation took a huge toll on her physical and mental energy. Enveloping Li Ming, Zhang Yuan promptly fell asleep.
Zhang Yuan’s acceptance was a relief. Li Ming held her, his gaze filled with amusement at the information that just appeared.
[Secret Dual Cultivation +1]
[Secret Dual Cultivation Practice (Beginner 1%)]
This Dual Cultivation method he stumbled upon had been recognised by the proficiency panel and successfully appeared on it!
“Despite having practiced spearing and sword fighting countless times, I only managed to barely grasp them. However, this Secret Dual Cultivation only took me three tries to get the hang of it. Could it be that my talent actually lies here?”
A thought struck Li Ming. However, seeing Zhang Yuan enveloping him, he couldn’t help but feel that their quick mastery had a lot to do with their close cooperation.
Otherwise wouldn’t it have taken longer?
Li Ming was lost in thought. Looking at the data on the screen, he couldn’t help but mutter to himself.
“The method mentions that with dedicated practice, it might be possible to cultivate the legendary true energy. If this record is true, I wonder at what level this marvelous power can be cultivated.”
“However, if I only practice once a day, I can only improve a little each day. Wouldn’t it take me a hundred days to fully cultivate it?”
What will the end of the world look like a hundred days from now?
Li Ming doesn’t know, but a hundred days truly feels lengthy.
Li Ming felt somewhat anxious. After contemplating for a while, he made a decision: “It’s said that practice is like rowing upstream; one needs to work diligently. How can I, a diligent man, slack off when it comes to practicing cultivation?”
“It’s decided. From tomorrow on, I will practice twice a day. Once before sleep, and once after waking up, even during a midday nap, also in the afternoon and the morning!”
Li Ming resolved to endure the hardship of diligent practice to better cultivate his abilities.
Each practice session of the Secret Dual Cultivation Method not only won’t drain him of his origin energy, but also reinforces it and enhances his vitality. He should put great effort into practice.
I, Li Ming, am ready to embrace the suffering from cultivation!
“To improve our cultivation, I have to let Yinyin get accustomed to sleeping with Chen Li and me as soon as possible. I will talk to Chen Li’s mother tomorrow to gradually transition Yinyin to sleep with her, then Chen Li can directly move to my room.”
But seeing Zhang Yuan in his arms, Li Ming suddenly felt a bit hesitant.
“Never mind, never mind, I’ll just have her come up for practice every morning.”
Sigh, the sacrifices he’s made for his cultivation!
Li Ming was deeply moved in his heart. He planned to immediately cuddle the doll-like Zhang Yuan and drift off to sleep, but suddenly realized he hadn’t checked his skill levels for some time.
Previously, both the “Sword Thrust” and “Spear Stab” skills were introduced as “Incomplete Techniques”, but he hadn’t checked the levels for the “Form and Intent Five Elements Fist”, “Tai Chi 24 Forms”, “Eight Section Brocade”, or even the current “Secret Yin-Yang Bedroom Scripture”.
“I’ve been so disorganized.”
How could he not check his technique levels?
Li Ming shook his head, quickly opened his proficiency panel, skipped over the incomplete techniques, and curiously looked at the “Form and Intent Five Elements Fist”.
“Form and Intent Five Elements Fist, exquisite class foundation technique, unranked skill.”
“Eh, the same simple description again. Does ‘unranked skill’ means the skill hasn’t reached a level for assessment?”
Seeing the description, Li Ming helplessly shook his head. He noticed the term ‘exquisite class technique’ and concluded that the complete legacy of Form and Intent Fist must be exceptional.
Too bad he couldn’t have it for himself. He then regretfully clicked on the remaining skills to check their levels.
“Tai Chi 24 Forms, greatly simplified version of exquisite class technique, unranked technique.”
The Tai Chi 24 Forms seems to be a greatly simplified version and is also an unranked technique.
“Eight Section Brocade, superior class technique.”
The Eight Section Brocade was directly rated as a superior class technique. Could this be the reason it feels different from the other techniques Li Ming practices?
“Secret Yin-Yang Bedroom Scripture, superior class technique.”
This dual cultivation technique is at the same level as the Eight Section Brocade?
That can’t be right. Is there something about dual cultivation that’s not as good as the Eight Section Brocade?
Could it be that even among techniques of the same level, there are differences in quality?
A myriad of thoughts flickered in Li Ming’s mind and he involuntarily furrowed his brows: “Incomplete, unranked, superior, exquisite…”.
Li Ming noted down the special words that appeared and studied them for a long time without gaining an understanding.
He could only speculate in his heart, which is higher, exquisite or superior? And if one of them was higher, how many levels were there for even higher techniques?
Similarly, would the superior class techniques like Eight Section Brocade and Secret Yin-Yang Bedroom Scripture cultivate some magical power when reached?
As thoughts raced, he gradually fell asleep.
In the blink of an eye, a night had passed.
Waking up the next morning, Li Ming felt refreshed and vigorous. However, he was a bit regretful that he ended up sleeping separately from Zhang Yuan, who had embraced him the night before.
“It’s time to check the fishing nets.”
It was only five thirty in the morning, the sun had just started to rise, and Zhang Yuan was still sleeping soundly. Li Ming didn’t disturb her. To prevent the fish from escaping from the nets, he got up and went outside alone.
The sun had not yet fully risen, and even in summer, it was cool at this time. Li Ming took his tools and drove back to where he had set the nets. He held a bucket in one hand and lifted the first net out of the water.
“Swish…”
As the net came out of the water, several fish and shrimp appeared inside, as well as many small fish. Li Ming laughed lightly, picked out the bigger ones, released the little ones back into the lake, then put the net in the car and started on the second net.
“Swish…”
Checking the second net, there were more fish and shrimp. However, Li Ming was not discouraged. He collected them one by one, keeping the ones big enough to eat and releasing the tiny ones back into the lake. After collecting all twenty nets, he had gathered a large bucket of fish and half a bucket of shrimp.
“Not bad.”
Gazing at the fish and shrimp, a satisfied smile appeared on Li Ming’s lips. Then he lifted the bucket and the nets and drove back home.
Setting nets could only be done in the evening to catch fish during the night. Doing this during the day would be useless and would actually affect the results at night, so he didn’t set nets in the daytime.
Fishing could be an option, but unfortunately, Li Ming didn’t have the time.
