The road to the heavens starting from the Wild Age

Chapter 9
The family heirloom that Xia Xiyue mentioned was put in a small cloth bag by Xia Ming and hung around his neck.

While it was still dark, Xia Ming quickly returned to the room alone, preparing to have a good sleep.

Cultivation is not something that happens overnight. Xia Ming has just stepped into the path of cultivation. He is still a mortal, and given his age, he naturally needs to sleep.

Xia Ming quickly fell into a deep sleep, and at this moment, an invisible force slowly entered his body.

This is a space without any light. There is nothing in the whole space, only a vague figure.

The figure is holding a long stick about five feet long. As the long stick is swung, the shadows of the stick are layered, and an indescribable mystery is hidden in it.
It was already bright outside, and Xia Ming suddenly opened his eyes. He subconsciously rubbed his swollen head.

"What's going on? Is it a dream?"

This thought flashed through Xia Ming's mind, but he soon realized that it was not that simple. Now he could recall the blurry figure and the mysterious and unparalleled stick shadow with just a moment's concentration.

"This is a stick method."

Xia Ming touched his forehead and thought for a moment. The next moment, he stood up suddenly and went straight to Xia Xiyue's room.

However, as soon as Xia Ming walked out of the room, he saw Xia Xiyue standing there.

"Xiao Ming, didn't you say last night that I would teach you swordsmanship when you get up this morning? Why did you sleep so late?" Xia Xiyue looked at Xia Ming and asked. Hearing this, Xia Ming became a little suspicious.

Doesn't Xia Xiyue know?
"Auntie, I had a strange dream last night." Xia Ming finally told the dream. When Xia Ming said this, Xia Xiyue was not surprised, but her eyes lit up slightly.

"Aunt, you really know that it was the 'family heirloom' you gave me yesterday that was responsible, right?" Xia Ming asked directly.

"Xiao Ming, why are you so smart at such a young age?" Xia Xiyue smiled and pinched Xia Ming's cheek.

"I'm not a fool."

Xia Ming was a little speechless. There must be a reason for this sudden occurrence. After excluding many invalid variables, the only thing in him that was most likely to cause such a change was the mysterious "family heirloom".

"Xiao Ming, listen carefully!"

Suddenly, Xia Xiyue's smile disappeared, her face became solemn, and she said:

"That black bead is a rare treasure with a very mysterious origin. Ordinary people will not gain anything if they hold it. But if some people with good talent get this bead, without exception, they will get a very clever gift." "The Dharma"

"A person with good talent?" Xia Ming was startled. This is too easy for people to imagine.

"Everyone who has obtained this strange object before has speculated that it may contain some kind of chance. Although no one has ever really proven it, the possibility is very high." Xia Xiyue said seriously:
"Only you can know this matter yourself. Never, never tell anyone about it, okay?"

"Know!"

Xia Ming nodded solemnly.

Opportunity can cause people to go crazy.

What should I do if I don’t have enough talent on my spiritual journey?Maybe it only takes one chance to reach a higher level.

Even if you have extremely high talents, you will still have a desire for opportunities. Opportunities will increase the upper limit of genius.

Xia Xiyue warned her several times. After all, Xia Ming was too young on the surface, so she would not be at ease if she didn't warn him again and again.

"Auntie, does this strange object have other uses?" Xia Ming asked curiously.

"You have to dig it yourself." Xia Xiyue said, Xia Ming understood immediately, and Xia Xiyue didn't know either.

In other words, this bead may have other functions, but no one has ever discovered them.

Of course, it's also possible that it really has no other purpose.
"You just said that you got a set of stick techniques?" Xia Xiyue suddenly asked.

"Correct."

Xia Ming nodded. "Well, I don't know the stick method. I'll hire a stick method teacher for you in two days to teach you the basics." Xia Xiyue said thoughtfully.

"Stick method?"

Xia Ming was immediately dumbfounded. Did he say he wanted to learn the sword?
"Xiao Ming, the method given by this strange object is not only brilliant, but also often very suitable for practitioners." Xia Xiyue said:

"Since that strange object has given you a set of stick techniques, it means that this set of stick techniques must be suitable for you. Moreover, only by practicing the techniques given by this strange object can you hope to truly discover the secrets. So, this You must learn the stick technique!"

"But I want to learn swordsmanship!" Xia Ming said quickly.

"Whether it's a sword or a stick, it's just a means of fighting the enemy. Is there any difference?" Xia Xiyue asked with some confusion, and she followed up:

"Besides, you are extremely talented in the field of body refining of gods and demons. You will definitely be extremely powerful in the future. Heavy weapons like sticks can also unleash your power even more!"

Xia Ming wanted to say that the sword was more handsome, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that being handsome could not be eaten.

"OK then"

Xia Ming agreed.

. . .

Xia Ming was not kept waiting for too long. Only two days later, Xia Xiyue helped him find a staff teacher.

This is an old man wearing a green robe, with white hair and a white beard, who looks energetic.

"Xiao Ming, this fellow Taoist is named 'Feng Yangzi'. He is proficient in stick techniques. You must learn from this fellow Taoist." Xia Xiyue said with a smile.

At this time, after Xia Ming quietly looked at the old man for a few times, he nodded secretly in his heart.

This Feng Yangzi looks like a fairy, and he is very reliable at first glance. I don’t know where Xia Xiyue hired him from.
"Excuse me, Senior Feng Yangzi!" Xia Ming stood there and bowed slightly.

"The little doll is quite polite."

Feng Yangzi stroked his beard and said, "Your aunt invites me here. It costs a lot of money, so of course I have to do my best!"

"Let's do this. I'll teach you the basics of stick technique for two hours every day until you become proficient!"

"Yes."

Xia Ming immediately agreed.

"Well, let's get started without further delay!"

Feng Yangzi didn't say much, he took Xia Ming directly to the courtyard.

Although this small courtyard is simple, it is located in Anchan City after all, and it is actually protected by formations, so there is no need to practice stick skills, just fight here, and it will not have the slightest impact on the outside world.

Feng Yangzi held a long stick about six feet long, while Xia Ming only used a short three-foot stick because he was too short.

"Among all kinds of weapons, the stick method is relatively easy." Feng Yangzi said:

"However, the stick method naturally has its subtleties."

"There are nine basic moves with the stick, namely sweeping, teasing, poking, splitting, racking, spinning, tapping, taking advantage of the situation, and swinging the round stick!"

"What I want to teach you, in addition to these nine basic techniques, is to let you understand the advantages and disadvantages of these nine techniques so that you can adapt flexibly in battle."

Feng Yangzi kept talking, and Xia Ming kept remembering it in his heart.

As the saying goes, the moon stick, the sword of the year, the spear of a lifetime, the stick method is indeed a relatively easy weapon, but no matter how easy it is, there are still skills involved in it. It is different if you have practiced it or not!
