Chapter 354: Chapter 149 Ancient Martial Arts and Pang Mountain
Third day, afternoon.
The sea breeze caressed his face.
Zhang Feng sat on the edge of the ship beside the helm, holding a homemade bamboo fishing rod in one hand while cradling a somewhat worn-out book in the other.
It was called "River Prosperity Technique," an ’Ancient Martial Arts Training Method’ salvaged from the pirate ship.
As Zhang Feng read, he occasionally glanced at the dozen or so crew members practicing their martial arts on the ship.
Their bodies swayed, their stances were far from standard, relying solely on their experience on the ship to barely maintain balance.
But at the slightest wave or instability of the ship, they would falter.
"The center of gravity is in the waist, not the legs..."
Zhang Feng scanned them briefly and offered some pointers.
Since there’s a ’captain’ in the main quest,
Zhang Feng thought it over and started imparting ’martial arts training’ to the crew from the beginning of the third day.
This way, he wouldn’t need to handle minor matters himself in the future.
Moreover, once their Constitution improves, their ’rowing speed’ would also increase.
Zhang Feng imagined a group of Junior Grandmasters rowing for him, combined with the sails and wind, they might cover a thousand miles in a day.
And in these days,
Zhang Feng also learned about some ship information, knowing that ships solely relying on favorable winds generally travel at 15 to 40 kilometers per hour.
This ship was upper-medium, with a normal top speed of 25 kilometers per hour.
Provided the winds are favorable.
Therefore, Zhang Feng sought to cultivate a team of excellent ’Junior Grandmaster Level rowers,’
tentatively aiming for that Constitution level of Eastern Light.
Because Lin Island is over three thousand miles away, if they relied on the current speed, even with favorable weather, the best wind blowing for twenty-four hours, and crew shifts without breaks, it would still take more than three days to get there.
But with his Junior Grandmaster rowing methods, as long as there are no sea storms, they could cover a thousand miles a day, even without wind.
Besides, there’s this book.
Through understanding by analogy, Zhang Feng had thoroughly analyzed this book over the past few days.
In essence, it’s a fist skill training method from the older generations, which can be considered ’Ancient Martial Arts.’
Similar to a kind of stake standing practice, specifically honing Constitution.
Moreover, Zhang Feng used this book’s training methods to evaluate himself, identifying weaknesses and strengths, and also improved some of his own training techniques.
It was precisely this ’identifying weaknesses and strengths.’
Zhang Feng thought that in this world, not only should he cultivate magic, but he should also search extensively for ’ancient martial arts secret books.’
These are useful training knowledge, which can enrich his own foundation.
As he pondered.
Zhang Feng reeled in his fishing rod, noticing the bait was washed away by the waves again, or perhaps a fish had just eaten it.
’In the first few days, "visualizing the spirit (Spiritual Thought)" is indeed difficult, hard to divide the second path, and multitasking is impossible.’
Zhang Feng tied a small fish with a thin string again, slipped it onto the hook, and casually cast it out.
At this moment, fishing was merely a pretext.
In fact, Zhang Feng was trying to quickly split into two Spiritual Thoughts through ’clever’ means.
This morning, the Spiritual Thought had already opened.
But currently, there is only one.
’In the world of Dan Jin, I opened two paths carefree.’
Feeling the Spiritual Thought, Zhang Feng contemplated,
’In reality, on the day Z1 launched, I was so overjoyed that I unexpectedly opened two paths.
These two experiences similar to "epiphanies," I can identify.
But they’re too slow.
And overall I’ve only opened two times, so my proficiency is not high.
Including other methods of splitting Spiritual Thought hasn’t been tested.
The experience with division is too limited.
It can’t form a rich theoretical knowledge.
In my opinion, multitasking shouldn’t be something that can only be done through epiphany; it’s something that should be traceable, like a pattern.’
Thinking to himself, Zhang Feng looked at his meridians again.
Familiar meridians, the earliest ones he knew.
Zhang Feng could achieve ’one-second opening’ for them.
This is proficiency.
It’s like with a quick sweep of visualization, he doesn’t even need to ’pay much attention,’ and it can overclock.
Currently, Zhang Feng has 18 such instant-opening meridians.
Eight in his hands, six in his legs, four in his torso.
Zhang Feng also calculated that if his starting point had a Constitution standard of 10,
then, after 18 seconds from the start, even if his Constitution remains 10, with the 18 meridians and the endless change and computation of power, he could completely overwhelm a ’limit variating’ martial artist with a Constitution of 20.
Now with a deep knowledge base, when facing another of his kind in endless variation combat, he can also achieve ’break-the-move and one-strike kill’ from a superior Constitution.
And if his Constitution were 11, he could overwhelm 21~23.
12, 23~25.
13, 25~27.
14, 28
From ’28’ onward, he catches up.
With just the 18-second start, ’28’ onward, each increase of 1 point of Constitution cancels 1 point of their Constitution.
And at this moment.
As Zhang Feng is training the ’multitasking,’ using divergent thinking, he not only watches the crew practice martial arts, fishes, and reads, but also familiarizes himself with other meridians, lost in various comparisons and idle thoughts.
The thoughts are extremely erratic, like a whimsical mania.
Zhang Feng imitates the Lingshan Immortal of the Dan Jin world.
He entrusted his mind to the demon, his words were also very random, eighty percent resembling this ’mania method.’
After a while.
As the sun slowly set over the distant sea horizon,
Zhang Feng stopped practicing using this method.
Because the thoughts were too chaotic, greatly affecting his memory bank.
This method was unsuitable for him.
But Zhang Feng also learned some cultivation experiences about Spiritual Thought from it, realizing that in cultivating the mind, having many methods is not as good as following nature.
Just like in the Dan Jin world, one can cultivate without worry, cultivate carefree over there.
