Chapter 257 Learning the Basics
As they strolled along, Paimon and Ying spotted a familiar little girl.
"Isn't this the little girl who came over after I pushed Oser back into the sea and made a promise to Xiao to spend the festival together... I remember, her name is... Changchang?"
Changchang is a little girl who is always waiting for her father to come home.
For some reason, her father rarely came home, even during holidays.
Changchang, who is always alone, often talks to herself and has no peers to keep her company. Perhaps in the eyes of other children, Changchang is a strange person.
Even so, she was still a kind and obedient child, so obedient that she was too naive. She even believed the contents of her dreams.
Just now, in order to fulfill the wish expressed by her doll in her dream, Changchang donated the doll to the staff in charge of releasing the lanterns.
She's too naive and too kind.
However, Ying and Paimon were generous with their praise, giving Changchang a thumbs up.
After saying goodbye to Changchang, the two continued walking into Xiaoshi.
A musician named Xin Yan is playing rock music on the street.
A navigator named Beidou is indulging in a feast nearby.
A young Taoist priest named Chongyun also joined in the fun, strolling through the night market.
Even Timaeus, who was in a long-distance relationship and should have been standing dumbfounded by the alchemy table in Mondstadt, came to Liyue and strolled hand in hand with his lover, Ying'er.
The lively atmosphere gradually emptied Ying's wallet.
Sigh... Paimon can really eat.
Only by running into some acquaintances and exchanging greetings can one slow down the rate at which Mora is decreasing.
I ran into Grandma Ping, who had become Aunt Ping, and heard her tell me the story of "Yi Xiao Dao Tian Zhen Jun".
I also bumped into Zhongli, a retired old man who seemed to be slacking off all day for some reason. I had several cups of tea with him and learned a bit more about his life.
The lanterns hung in the sky, Paimon floated on the ground, and Ying suffered bitterly in her heart.
Having learned to weave lanterns on short notice, Ying and Paimon each released one into the sky with their hopes.
(Hoping to find my brother soon...)
(Hopefully she can find her brother...)
During festive occasions, when people are eating, drinking, and having fun, time always flies by. In the blink of an eye, three days have passed...
In contrast, for Huiyuan, who was in the cave of True Lord Liuyun, each day felt like an eternity.
Three days! Do you know how I spent those three days?!
Huiyuan, who originally thought he could easily learn the Cloud-Leaving Immortal Technique with his talent, stayed up for three days and three nights and barely managed to learn the technique with the help of the system.
To enhance Huiyuan's sensory experience, she hasn't eaten any oily or oily food for the past few days, only consuming cooling herbs and mint.
Not only was the food insufficient, but it was also barely edible! This was a complete disaster!
"You really learned it in three days."
Looking at Huiyuan, who had just successfully channeled his energy and then collapsed to the ground in tears of joy, Liuyun Zhenjun remarked.
If we don't give them something good to eat, they'll really starve to death!
Having successfully completed his cultivation, Huiyuan now only wanted to do one thing: quickly find some meat to eat.
After a flurry of eating and devouring several meat chops, Huiyuan lay down on the bed, closed her eyes, and instantly fell asleep.
The next afternoon, Huiyuan opened her eyes and saw the culprit who had caused her so much pain, and she jumped up in fright.
"Liu Yun, why are you watching me sleep?!"
"Ah...you're not dead. I saw you sleeping for more than ten hours and still hadn't woken up. I thought you had become a vegetable due to forced cultivation. Haha, it was just a false alarm. I almost didn't know how to explain it to the Emperor."
Seeing that Liu Yun was only worried about her and not about taking her away to eat Qingxin and Bohe, Huiyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"By the way, I think that regarding cultivation... the way to quickly become stronger, I actually have a method that is more suitable for you."
"what way?"
"Practice martial arts."
Why didn't you say so earlier?!
"You didn't even ask."
At this moment, tears began to stream down Huiyuan's face, and she started to sob.
(If only I had known... if only I had known this would happen...)
Seeing Huiyuan crying, Liuyun scratched the bird's head.
"Alright, alright, didn't you say you still have one day? Use this day to learn martial arts. With your aptitude, it's not like you can't do it."
Upon hearing this, Huiyuan cheered up.
"Okay...for your own safety..."
After switching back to its original form, Huiyuan followed Liuyun to the training ground, which is where the cats usually practice martial arts.
As the horn sounded, the cats arrived at the venue one after another, lined up in an orderly fashion, and began to warm up.
Liu Yun pointed to the weapon rack to the side and said, "Tell me, what do you want to practice?"
Looking at these various weapons, Huiyuan began to ponder.
I've never used a knife or sword before, so I'm not familiar with them.
Hammer and shield are too bulky and unsuitable.
Bows and crossbows... Huiyuan already has Barrett rifles, why would they need this?
Spears and clubs... I used a club in Mondstadt before, just to look cool.
Suddenly, Huiyuan had a flash of inspiration.
"Ruyi Golden Cudgel!"
After the name was uttered, a stick appeared out of thin air and stood on the ground.
Upon seeing this divine artifact, True Lord Liuyun's eyes lit up with amazement.
At this moment, Huiyuan switched to Lingling's appearance, and her strength and speed attributes increased greatly.
He rubbed his hands together, then laboriously picked up the extremely heavy Ruyi Jingu Bang (the magic staff), and after swinging it a few times, he was already panting heavily.
"Can I swing this stick however I want in a whole day?"
Liu Yun Zhenjun smiled faintly and transformed into human form.
"It's possible, very easy."
As he spoke, Liu Yun snatched the golden cudgel and swung it around with ease.
"It does have some weight. My clumsy apprentice Shen He should be able to perform the Earthquake. Oh... it can even grow longer."
"You...no, Liu Yun, don't you think it's heavy?!"
"What's so heavy about it? But as a weapon, this stick seems a bit unsuitable; it takes too much stamina."
"Quick, tell me how to make it look effortless!"
"It's very simple. Circulate your internal energy... ah, elemental energy will also work. In short, first feel the blood flowing through your body... then feel the presence of the weapon, making it a part of your limbs..."
With a mental strength of 3S level, Huiyuan has extremely strong learning ability and thinking speed.
After just one hour of instruction from True Lord Liuyun, Huiyuan was able to successfully wield the Golden Cudgel.
He used elemental power to enhance the connection between his limbs and his weapon, making the weapon an integral part of his body, thus enabling him to wield the Golden Cudgel.
It's not that Huiyuan's 2S-rank strength is too weak to lift the Golden Cudgel, but rather that Huiyuan's control over his power is not yet proficient, and he cannot unleash his full strength.
That makes sense, since the system directly enhances the body's strength. How can muscle gained through shortcuts compare to muscle developed through long-term, dedicated training?
