Pale Emblem

Chapter 11 The Three Great Forging Methods
Vertok's new bedroom is at the end of the corridor on the second floor of the hotel.This is a single room, the rent is very cheap, the room area is only a dozen square meters, but it is much larger than the stairwell.There is a single bed, a wooden chair, a wooden barrel that doubles as a box and a table, and finally a coat hanger.It is the tallest piece of furniture in the room, standing alone and proud in the corner.

The furnishing of the new bedroom was shabby and shabby, but Vertok was happy, and the reason for his happiness had nothing to do with moving to the new room.If he has to say that it is related, he needs a larger private space now, so he changed to a new bedroom.

Vertok went to the town to explore this time, and it was a pleasant surprise.

From the moment he saw the notice board of the Adventurer's House, the "knowledge puzzle" in the consciousness world had a throbbing.Afterwards, Jean had a wonderful match with Carl from the Whistle Adventure Group and Instructor John from the training camp, which opened Vertok's eyes, and the reaction of the "knowledge puzzle" touched his heart again.Driven by the strong inner desire, Vertok completed an "inspiration" training without hesitation.

This time, the golden light group named "Puzzle of Knowledge" directly awakened an important memory that was sleeping in Vertok's body.

Why is it said that it is a memory that is sleeping in the body?
That's because the moment he was climbing and running on the mud training ground, sweating profusely, and mastering the sense of physical coordination, his muscle memory was awakened. The "knowledge puzzle" feeds back a piece of information related to muscle memory.

Virtok recalled that this world is composed of four elements, namely the earth element, which symbolizes material, and corresponds to the physical attributes of creatures; the fire element, which symbolizes energy, corresponds to the spiritual attributes of creatures; the wind element, which symbolizes space, corresponds to the sensory attributes of creatures. ; The water element, which symbolizes time, corresponds to the life attribute of creatures.

The relationship between the four elements is very special. They complement each other and restrain each other, forming the balance of all things in the world.The earth element and the wind element are mutually restrained, and they are compatible with the water element, followed by the fire element.The fire element and the water element are both compatible with the earth element and the wind element.They pass each other through the intermediate affinity element, forming a balanced and stable cycle.

According to this set of element balance theory, "Puzzle of Knowledge" fed back three sets of body forging secrets to Vertok.

The secret shape of barberry, the forging method of affinity with the elements, mainly trains people's physical attributes, followed by life attributes, and improves a little spiritual attributes. The specific performance is to enhance the strength of the practitioner's muscles and bones, strengthen the internal organs, and strengthen the foundation of the human being. strength, and has a brilliant burst of power skills.

The highest state of the barberry secret shape, which allows practitioners to wrestle with a bull with one hand.

The secret shape of the monkey, the forging method of affinity with the wind element, mainly enhances the human perception attribute, followed by the spiritual attribute, and slightly improves the life attribute. The specific performance is to enhance the practitioner's agility, balance, coordination, and sensory sensitivity.

If practitioners practice the secret form of the monkey to the extreme, they can even activate their super senses and predict danger.

The last secret method of forging is the most special golden toad secret shape. It is compatible with water and fire elements at the same time, improving the life and spiritual attributes of practitioners. mind power.

According to the principle of mutual restraint of the four elements, the fire element and the water element restrain each other.It is a mistake for the golden toad secret shape to be compatible with two mutually restraining elements at the same time, and it is impossible to cultivate successfully.The same is true. Practicing the golden toad secret shape alone will not have any effect, but if you practice the two secret shapes of barberry and spirit monkey at the same time, and then practice the golden toad secret shape, you can build a stable balance of the four elements and produce magical changes. .

As for the origin of the three major exercises, Vertok can't remember at all, but the recovered muscle memory shows that he has practiced the three major exercises of barberry, spirit monkey and golden toad countless times. The effects of cultivation are all very familiar. "Knowledge Puzzle" also gave clear feedback that as long as he practiced the three major forging methods completely ten times, his physical attributes and perception attributes would increase to 12 points, and his life attributes would increase to 15 points, reaching the current four-element attribute upper limit. Only then can you continue to improve your mental attributes, further reduce the rotation speed of the "Golden Light Group", and unlock the next stage of the "Knowledge Puzzle".

Restoring his memory and finding himself are what Vertok yearns for the most, and his path is very clear. It starts with cultivating the three secret forms of exercise and moves forward step by step.

The three major body forging secret methods of barberry, spirit monkey and golden toad are mainly composed of piling method, contemplation method and breathing method.Among them, the secret shape of barberry is a bit problematic. It has some dangers in itself. The process of practicing will make people feel painful. Beginners may be injured if they are a little careless. The most serious case is internal bleeding.Therefore, some auxiliary medicines are used in the cultivation method of the barberry secret shape.

Fortunately, Vertok is not a beginner, and it is relatively simple for him to cultivate any of the three secret shapes.He also remembered the medicinal formula for the auxiliary barberry's secret shape, but the raw materials and preparation methods of the medicinal herbs had not yet been determined.However, even if there is no medicine, it doesn't matter, you can use rich food instead, and adjust the physical and mental state with the golden toad secret shape, the cultivation effect of the barberry secret shape is also good.

Cultivating Spirit Monkey Mystical Form requires a wide place and can only be done outdoors.It's similar to Instructor John's inspiration training, and it also works on coordination and balance.The difference between the two is that the method of inspiration training is relatively primitive and rough, and the students will only undergo qualitative changes after several years of practice in preset scenarios.The secret shape of the monkey is not that complicated. Although it has to be practiced outdoors, it does not require such a large playground.

However, when the secret form of the monkey is practiced to a high level, it becomes very extreme. Practitioners must try frantically on the edge of life and death, and use life's instinctive fear of death to stimulate the transformation of the soul.

Vertoc and the Golden Toad Mystique can avoid this dreadful step.

The secret shape of the golden toad is the most special. Its cultivation method seems simple, that is, to sleep on the bed imitating the posture of a toad.In fact, the difficulty of cultivating the secret form of the golden toad is outrageous.It emphasizes that the body is dormant and the spirit is active, and the practitioner is in a paradoxical state of mind and body.Ordinary people practice the secret shape of the golden toad, and it is not certain that they may be able to enter the hall after 30 or [-] years.

Vertok also doesn't know how he practiced the Golden Toad Secret Form in the first place. Anyway, he has no obstacle to revisiting the Golden Toad Secret Form.However, he instinctively knew that the secret shape of the Golden Toad was very important to him and must not be leaked to the public, not even his most trusted Aunt Sarah!

Therefore, Vertok changed rooms, moving from the crowded stairwell to the single room on the second floor that required payment.

There is another reason. When he was taking a shower, he recalled what happened today.It is inaccurate to say that it is recalled, it should be said "review".

The golden light group in the conscious world will always faithfully record what Vertok experienced from the perspective of a third person, and clearly present various details that he did not notice.

Outsiders found that Vertok likes to be in a daze, but in fact he immersed his mind in the world of consciousness and "reviewed" his own experience.For example, Carl and John played against each other today, and the two of them went back and forth. The offense and defense changed like lightning, and Vertok didn't see it clearly at the time.When he was in the bath, he "reviewed" the battle scenes of the two sides through the golden light group, and all the details were vivid in his mind. He even found that Carl made a total of five mistakes, and John only caught two of them; and John also had two Mistakes were made, and Karl never caught it.

Vertok is also confident that he can beat either Karl or John, as long as his fitness can keep up.

As soon as this idea was born, the golden light group immediately corrected Vertok's misunderstanding. His later thoughts were:

This is a master of the eye, I am still far away, don't seek death, when I recover all my memories, everything will be better.

In the later "look back", Vertok found that the instructor John was trying to prevent him from entering the training ground, but John had very covert eye contact with a person, and immediately changed his mind.The man was at the back left of Vertok, his cheeks were thin and sunken, and his eyes were always gloomy.

Vertok knew that person, he was Cole, a physician from Braun Town, who had come to the Adventurer's House to examine Vertok's body.Cole has a good relationship with Bartom's boss and cook Sarah, calling Bartom "the head" or "head" and the cook Sarah "eldest sister".

In fact, except for Aunt Sarah, Vertoc had no good or bad impression of anyone in Braun, including Dr. Cole.But today he was stalking him secretly, and secretly instructing John to change his attitude towards him, which made Vertok feel very unhappy and at the same time became vigilant.

Vertok is usually pure and correct, but he enters his own world of consciousness and looks back at his memory through the golden light group, and many naive thoughts will quietly change.

The secret shape of the golden toad is very important and should not be known to others; the doctor Cole is very annoying, and we must guard against him in the future... Virtok reminded himself, but there are no specific measures.He quickly put his troubles aside and stared eagerly at the coat hanger in the room.

This wooden frame is like Carl's saber, both long and straight.

Vertok is in high spirits tonight and doesn't want to sleep yet.He saw the hanger, thought of Carl's saber, and remembered the whip-off technique shown in "Looking Back", so he excitedly picked up the wooden stick hanger and gestured in his hand.

The recovered muscle memory allowed him to enter the state naturally. He raised his arm, swayed gently, and shook his wrist vigorously. The wooden stick hanger turned into an afterimage, stirred the air, and made a dull whistling sound of thunder.

With a "click", the lonely and proud wooden hanger was broken into two pieces, Vertok looked terrified, and his hands were drooping weakly.

The wrists of both of his hands were dislocated.

*******************
At noon the next day, in the luxurious private room of the Qin and Whistle Adventure Group, the third-level swordsman Karl, with a pale face, stared at a pair of dark circles, came out of the bedroom, walked to the table in the living room and sat down.

Annie poured him a glass of water thoughtfully and asked sympathetically, "How are you?"

Carl yawned and said feebly: "Yesterday, when I competed with John, I thought I was going to die, igniting mystic blood, and bursting with strength characteristics. Today, the sequelae of burning mystic blood have occurred... It is estimated that it will take two days to recover."

Charlie, the head of the regiment next to him, nodded and said, "Then you stay in your room and have a good rest. We're going out soon, and by the way, ask a waitress to take care of you."

Karl lifted his spirits and said eagerly, "Are you going to visit Instructor John? Take me, I'm fine..."

Katie, who was looking in the mirror in front of the entrance, turned her head and smiled, with two lovely dimples on her round face, "We're not going to training camp, we're going to visit Vertok, he was injured last night, I heard he was alone Practicing the whipping technique, I dislocated both wrists... Dr. Cole ran over in the middle of the night to pick up his wrists."

"It's impossible!" Carl exclaimed in disbelief. "How could the wrist be dislocated so easily? It took me three months to practice whip drop before my wrist was dislocated."

"Yeah, we think it's incredible too, so we're going to see it."

".…..I also need to go!"
