Lu Shang was a bit confused, all the martial arts techniques were good but he needs the one that will be suitable for him.
In the cultivation world martial arts skills are divided into different categories.
Core martial arts; This is the lowest of all martial arts skills that are suitable for people under the Consolidation realm. But can be powerful when practiced to the perfect state.
Low-tier martial arts are average martial arts, not that powerful, but when used by someone in the higher realm, their power can be more unleashed.
Middle-tier martial arts
High-tier martial arts
Peak-tier martial arts; are rare to find and if it happens to be seen it will cause a large uproar. Clans don't mind fighting against each other to make sure this particular martial art is owned by them.
The higher the martial arts, the more powerful they will be and more suitable when the person is strong enough.
The Martial arts skills that are found in the library were core martial arts, so Lu Shang wasn't afraid of anything.
He was interested in the "enraging dragon technique," but seeing the requirements needed to comprehend the skills, he lost interest in it.
He took his time to observe the martial arts skills before choosing the "wind withering technique."
He collected the martial arts book and then began to move out of the clan after successfully hiding the martial arts book under his robe.
He left the library under the gaze of the cultivators but he didn't care whether they hated him or loved him.
He went back to his mother's room and continued chatting with her. He was making sure his mother enjoyed his company and recovered to her former self fully.
Ever since the clan leader had left the room of Lu Shang. He had been moody concerning the fact that he wasn't powerful enough to take decisions of his own without his grandpa intervening.
"I have let myself down. We share beautiful memories. I vowed to you back then that no one will be able to make you unhappy but I failed you."
The voice of the clan leader rang out with regret in his heart as he look at the sky as though he could see the face of Zhang Xiao smiling down on him
He stood with his hands behind his back as the cool breeze around his garden gazed against his skin, while the sweet fragrance emitting out from the flowers hit his nose sending a cool sensation down his body that helped his body relax. He closed his eyes enjoying his stay in the garden.
Anytime he was unhappy, the garden was always where he went to calm down the state of his mind.
He opened his eyes and eyes locked onto a flower vessel, he couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face. Zhang Xiao was the one who personally went to the forest and picked this party flower and since then he made sure the maids taking care of his garden always water the flower with care.
He was now basked in his own emotions as he sighed in relief. "I hope one day we will be able to come back to our old selves like in the past"
Meanwhile, Lu Shang made sure he stayed with his mom all day until she fell asleep after eating the food brought by Su Qing and Su Yan.
A smile appeared on his face as he watched his mother sleep like a cute child and in a well-comfortable manner as she cuddled herself on the bed. "All because of me, she knows no rest for a year. I will surprise you in the future, even though I don't intend to become powerful because of you I will put my focus on cultivating until I rule over the world" Lu Shang said to himself in a low tone with determination clouding his heart.
He moved into the bed of his mom and then placed a kiss on her forehead before walking out of her room. He got to the door and then turned back, taking a glance at his sleeping mom before walking out.
….
In a neat and well-arranged room, a figure could be seen focusing all his attention on the martial arts book he inquired about from the clan library; this was no other person than Lu Shang.
The wind withering technique uses the power of the wind to accumulate a withering force for both attacking and defending; it can also be used to improve one's speed.
How can you comprehend this technique? First, you have to understand how the technique works.
Secondly, understanding the flow of the technique's energy in your body
Thirdly, make sure you are focused when comprehending this technique to avoid a backlash in your cultivation, which will then lead to injuries or, at worst, damage your martial core (making the person not be able to cultivate again).
The main part of successfully learning and comprehending this technique is focusing your thoughts on the martial art and then trying to use your perspective to sense the wind element in the air and then trying to absorb the wind energy into your body, allowing the wind energy to flow freely in your body.
After reading through the content of the technique, he unknowingly entered a wondrous state where he no longer knew anything around him again. The content of the "wind withering technique" flashed through his mind, and spiritual energy started to gather when he was there. The wind's energy could be faintly sensed in the air, mixed with the spiritual energy.
Lu Shang could sense the wind energy in the air without any difficulty. He started to absorb the wind's energy into his body and then allowed the energy to flow in his body. The wind energy within his body was slowly fusing into his organs and martial core. He could feel that he was getting stronger the more the wind energy entered his body.
At this moment, an incomparably bright light erupted from Lu Shang, making his figure somehow blurry, transparent, and illusory.
"BOOM!" The void shook as an arc of lightning flashed past the sky lighting the night, making everyone look up but not find anything suspicious. It only happened for a few seconds before everything returned to its normal state.
Everyone retraced their eyes back to what they were doing, even when it was night people were still busy as though it was day.
Lamps of different sizes could be seen in the busy street, serving as a source of light for the people. Some were hurrying to quickly finish what they were doing.
Just as everyone resumed what they were doing thinking that it was normal for such a thing to happen.
"BOOM! BOOM!" Lightning thundered down from the skies, forming an all-encompassing web of electrical currents in the air. The night suddenly turned into day at once. The town that was busy and booming with people suddenly became alert, and different clans all wondered what was happening for the sky to turn day at once without any sign of anything in sight.
People looked up in awe, wondering why such an abnormal thing was happening.
Some were already shivering at the thought that something dangerous was about to happen.
When everyone was looking up for signs of any abnormal thing or movement, slowly and slowly, the bright sky returned to its night once more, and soon everyone resumed what he or she was doing before.
Nobody knew what caused all this chaotic, violent reaction in the sky.
Lu Shang, whose figure was opaque and blurry, regained his normal state.
"What just happened to me?" He had no idea what happened at the critical time of his cultivation.
