Chapter 106: Chapter 85: No More Pretense, Laying the Cards on the Table, I Know Thunder Skill!
Lightning-struck wood?
The roommates immediately gathered around, each one like a curious baby, carefully examining the lightning-struck wood exposed to the air.
A fresh sprout on dead wood!
Wu You sighed and said, "So this is lightning-struck wood? It looks pretty much like the rumors say."
Han Yuan looked at Lin Beichen with a strange expression and laughed, "Beichen, did you bring this thing back to ward off ghosts?"
Hearing this, both Wu You and Liang Dong couldn’t help but laugh, giving him a look that said he wasn’t serious for even a day.
As students of the Imperial Capital University, they could be said to be among the most scientifically-minded young people of their generation. Naturally, they didn’t believe in ghosts and spirits, nor the commonly believed powers of lightning-struck wood.
"If it could really ward off evil, I’d start with getting rid of you first."
Lin Beichen looked at Han Yuan speechlessly, then explained to the curious Wu You and Liang Dong, "Lightning-struck wood is very helpful for my research."
Upon hearing the word "research."
The three no longer asked questions, since they knew nothing about Lin Beichen’s research and didn’t know what to ask.
At this moment, Lin Beichen felt that his legs had recovered quite a bit. He went straight to the large balcony and started practicing the horse stance technique he had grasped on his way back.
Four-point horse stance!
He went directly into the hardest and most leg-strengthening horse stance!
This action drew the attention of his three roommates away from the lightning-struck wood and onto him. They thought, this horse stance... actually looks quite authentic!
They felt that Lin Beichen’s horse stance looked similar to what they had seen in videos, but the steadiness he exuded was something the others in the videos couldn’t match, like he was rooted into the ground.
Liang Dong asked puzzledly, "Beichen, why are you suddenly doing horse stance?" 𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒑𝙪𝙗.𝙘𝒐𝙢
Han Yuan circled around Lin Beichen and clicked his tongue, "You stopped studying human-generated electricity to research horse stance now?"
"Human-generated electricity has two parts. Now I’m researching the ’human’ part to better study human-generated electricity."
Lin Beichen didn’t say more.
He began to adjust his breathing.
Horse stance... breathing is crucial!
Seeing him like this, his roommates had nothing more to say.
They didn’t disturb Lin Beichen any further. After observing the lightning-struck wood for a while, they each went back to doing their own things.
After about five minutes.
Lin Beichen felt his legs go from sore to numb to feeling like they might break.
When he was about to reach his limit.
A flash of insight crossed his mind.
"The Five Elements follow mutual generation and restraint..."
"Could the thunder attribute ’generate’ the gold attribute?"
With this thought, Lin Beichen’s mind suddenly cleared up. If the electric element could spread throughout the body, could it benefit the body?
No sooner said than done!
He immediately tried it.
"It’s effective!"
Lin Beichen’s eyes lit up, filled with excitement and joy.
In that instant of trying...
He clearly felt the fatigue in his body being repaired.
The electric element can speed up the body’s recovery!
"In this way..."
"I can withstand more training every day, and as my body continues to strengthen, the amount of training I can handle will keep increasing!"
This virtuous cycle made Lin Beichen ecstatic, greatly shortening the time needed to strengthen his body!
With the support of the electric element.
He managed to persist in the horse stance for another quarter of an hour, before dragging his heavy legs to the bathroom to take a shower, changed into fresh clothes, and climbed into bed with some difficulty.
He was utterly exhausted!
He fell asleep almost immediately.
The next morning.
With the continuous effect of the electric element, Lin Beichen woke up feeling refreshed. Seeing his roommates still fast asleep, he quietly got out of bed, washed up a bit, and then took the lightning-struck wood out of the dormitory.
"Carrying such a big lump of wood around all day isn’t going to work."
Along the way, feeling the groggy eyes looking at him, Lin Beichen didn’t feel much embarrassed; he just found it very inconvenient.
Find an opportunity...
To modify the lightning-struck wood!
Soon, he arrived at the secluded spot he had found yesterday.
He began his training.
He went through the Shaolin Twelve-Legged Spring Kicks several times.
He could clearly feel that today’s practice was many times better than yesterday’s, but it was still far from perfect!
"I still need to stick to the horse stance!"
Lin Beichen knew you can’t achieve victory in one go.
However, before doing the horse stance...
He tried visualization to see if he could visualize the fire element. To his disappointment, the result was the same as yesterday, with his imagination of "Illusion Becomes Reality" still empty.
The revolution is not yet successful, comrades must continue to work hard!
Lin Beichen had no more thoughts, so he started practicing the horse stance.
Four-point horse stance!
With the support of the electric element.
He managed to hold for more than half an hour before his legs started to tremble and he had to stop. However, he didn’t go back to the dormitory right away. After resting for a while, he placed the lightning-struck wood in front of him and sat cross-legged.
"I can’t let my Thunder Skill stagnate because I’m developing other attributes..."
Lin Beichen knew that he couldn’t yet use his own power to summon the lightning between heaven and earth, but the power of Palm Thunder could still be enhanced by tempering his liver!
