My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences

Fang Han’s Decision!

The so-called dummy training was a training method created by the head of the Changshan Dojo based on the characteristics of the breathing technique. It could increase the cultivation speed of the breathing technique.

Qin Huai cultivated under Fang Han’s guidance for an entire day, and in the end, the long breath technique’s experience points only increased by five.

At the same time, he picked up the experience balls from the new apprentices, Sun Ziyao, and the others. It was a lot of people—there were more than thirty of them.

However, they were all apprentices, and it was their first time cultivating the Qi circulation technique. Out of those people, the highest one gave Qin Huai two experience points, and the rest only had a pitiful one experience ball. This was probably the lowest value for an experience orb.

“If I were to cultivate step by step, just from level 9 to 10, I would have to spend two hundred days, so if I want to cultivate all ten levels, I’ll need a few years.”

Qin Huai sat by the window, watching the rising sun.

“The stupid bird flies first. I need to continue working hard.”

He folded the bedding and pushed open the door. He would go and collect five experience balls.

Huu~

A cold wind suddenly gushed into his collar, causing Qin Huai to shiver. “It’s only autumn, and it’s already so cold.”

Qin Huai wrapped his long robe tighter around him. The autumn and winter in this world were exceptionally cold, and the bone-chilling wind was too much for even a warrior to bear.

It was better last year. This year’s autumn seemed to be only slightly better than the previous winter.

“The weather is getting weirder and weirder. I wonder if it’s related to the demons,” Qin Huai mumbled.

Pingnan city did not produce cotton, so even those rich merchants and aristocrats might not have a cotton-padded coat in their families.

Ordinary people could only chop down large amounts of trees and firewood to keep warm. They would stock up on food at home and survive the long winter as if they were in hibernation.

“Many more people will die this winter.” Qin Huai rubbed his hands and immediately activated his Qi-nurturing technique.

The qi and blood in his body churned, and his face turned red at a visible rate. In just a few moments, the cold air was forced out by him.

“Luckily, I’m already a second-tier martial artist. Adding on the fact that the Qi of the Qi-nurturing technique is long, I can maintain it. This can be considered a different type of cultivation. But it’s still not enough. It’s far from enough.”

As usual, Qin Huai strolled around a few drill grounds and climbed over the walls to collect experience orbs.

While he was focused, not far away, Fang Han, who was doing his morning exercise, happened to see Qin Huai lying on the wall.

“You’re so hardworking.”

“I know that my root bone is not good enough, so I will observe the methods and learn their strengths.”

“That’s a good idea.” Fang Han praised, “I think you must have had a good foundation to be able to reach such a high level in the Qi-nurturing technique.”

He reflected on it and started to frown. “Practicing martial arts is indeed a matter that requires the use of the brain. Not bad, not bad.”

Fang Han’s admiration for Qin Huai grew. ‘I’ll teach him well in the future. He’ll definitely be a genius!”

Fang Han thought that from today onwards, his sparring partner would be Qin Huai. He wanted him to comprehend his own breathing technique, and the fastest improvement was to experience it personally.

He made up his mind and left the place after his morning exercise.

…

“Ding! You have collected a [Breath Control Essence (Green) ], [Breath Control] Experience +61!”

“Ding! You have collected a [Breath Control Essence (Green) ], [Breath Control] Experience +46!”

“Ding! You have collected a [Breath Control Essence (Green) ],[Breath Control] Experience +74!”

After Qin Huai walked through two drill grounds, he stopped at a hidden corner. He sat cross-legged on the ground, feeling the increasingly powerful Qi and blood in his body.

“Compared to the increase in vitality brought by level 10 breath control, the effect of the breathing technique seems to be better,” Qin Huai mumbled. This was probably the difference between a good cultivation technique and an ordinary cultivation technique.

Qin Huai let out a light breath, and white mist poured out. It lasted for a full twenty to thirty breaths. There was a breeze blowing around him, and his clothes and hair fluttered.

He peeked at himself and noticed there were two white dragons in his dantian.

As expected, the white dragon formed by the Qi cultivation technique didn’t disappear. A white dragon was also born at level 10 long breath technique.

With a thought, two white dragons burst out of Qin Huai’s body. On the edge of the fist, the waves of air became clearer and more compact. Not to mention its power, the sense of oppression was also getting stronger.

“In other words, I have one more white dragon than others in the same realm. To reach what Fang Han said, the thunderflash skill’s offense is no weaker than it, and the defense is comparable to the six directions skill. I only need to practice it three times.” Qin Huai added. Even if their vitality was slightly weaker, they did not need to worry about being suppressed by the martial artists from other dojos.

Qin Huai went around to the other drill grounds and collected the remaining three sets of experience balls.

“Ding! You have collected a [Breath Control Essence (Green) ], [Breath Control] Experience +30!”

“Ding! You have collected a [Breath Control Essence (Green) ], [Breath Control] Experience +27!”

“Ding! You have collected a [Breath Control Essence (Green) ], [Breath Control] Experience +103!”

As expected, the experience points of these first-grade martial artists have decreased sharply. The experience orbs given by the second-grade martial artists have not changed much.

Qin Huai looked at his personal panel with a calm expression.

Name: Qin Huai

[Cultivation Methods]: [Breathing technique (level 10, 1766/2000) ], [Qi-nurturing technique (level 50, 7/1000) ], [Breath Control technique (level 10, 501/1000) ],[Thunderflash skill (level 0, 100/1000)]

[Skills]: [Alchemy (advanced, 571/1600) ], [Forging (intermediate, 73/400)]

[Stage: Level 2 Blood Refinement]

“After getting level 10 breathing technique, the five drill grounds can only provide me with 2600 to 2700 experience points a day, which is a little more than one level.”

Qin Huai estimated. In about eight or nine days, he would reach level 20 Qi cultivation technique and catch up to his current realm.

“Level 10 breathing technique makes one a black-plate disciple, and they’ll get a bowl of blood Qi soup every three days.”

Qin Huai remembered it very clearly. However, he didn’t intend to reveal his realm today. After all, he had only been at the Changshan Dojo for two days. The other apprentices were given half a year to enter the breathing technique, and it would be too shocking to reach level 10 breathing technique in two days.

“In half a month, I have the foundation of the Qi cultivation technique, so it’s about the same time. It’s not that shocking.”

Qin Huai wanted to keep a low profile and not attract too much attention. When he walked into the small courtyard for cultivation, he heard Fang Han say, “You’re just in time!”

However, Sun Ziyao and the rest of the young apprentices were already cultivating.

“Qin Huai, I can’t breathe properly when I’m using the breathing technique. Can you help me take a look?” Sun Zi Yao ran over the moment he saw Qin Huai.

Qin Huai didn’t refuse and passed on the details he had worked hard to obtain. Sun Ziyao was so good at it that all the problems he raised were easily solved.

“Brother Qin, you’re really a god!” Sun Ziya praised.

“M-Me too. I-I have the same problem.”

The few of them asked one after another, and Qin Huai answered most of them easily. Even the young apprentices swarmed over.

“It’s just a foundation. What’s there to be proud of?” Li Zhang looked sourly at Qin Huai, who was the center of attention.

“In a few months, we’ll surpass him in the realm of our breathing technique!” the few of them vowed.

“Didn’t I just tell you that fellow disciples should help each other?!” Fang Han’s voice was like thunder behind them. It made the hair of the few people stand on end.

“Instructor Fang!”

Fang Han’s face was serious as he spoke. “You must be good at discovering other people’s strengths and stabilize your Dao hearts. You’ll all train for two more hours after the normal training!”

“Yes!” They naturally did not dare to resist.

“Qin Huai! You, come over here!” Fang Han waved his hand. “You’ll be my sparring partner today.”

Seeing Qin Huai’s diligence, Fang Han also decided to teach him seriously. In the path of martial arts, one’s body would never be out of date.
