In The Whole World, I Have 50% More Rewards - Chapter 38

Chapter 38 Saber Light

After the light was extinguished, Zhao Gao quickly checked the large saber and discovered that it had cut three centimeters deep into the iron rod again.

This caused Zhao Gao to be extremely excited. He had finally found the path to success.

Zhao Gao quickly pulled out his saber in excitement. He closed his eyes and tried to recall the feeling earlier on. He hoped that he could make this light appear on the saber again. He slashed again and again. Every time he swung his saber, Zhao Gao needed to recall how he felt.

Zhao Gao tried again and again for a month, but he did not manage to display the light on the saber.

This caused Zhao Gao to feel very frustrated.

After swinging his saber randomly at the rod for a while, Zhao Gao calmed down. He decided to be more earnest in his attempts to cut the iron rod.

This time, Zhao Gao was no longer thinking about causing the light to appear. Instead, he just let nature take its course.

This was because Zhao Gao knew that if the light could appear twice, it would naturally appear thrice. He just had not discovered the right method yet.

If the light appeared more frequently later, he would naturally learn the trick.

Hence, Zhao Gao maintained a calm state of mind. He wanted it to appear quickly and yet he did not want to forcibly think about it.

He began to strike the iron rod earnestly.

With this mentality, Zhao Gao managed to cause the light to appear twice, in less than two months.

Although the lights were fleeting, they provided Zhao Gao with a lot of encouragement. From these two incidents, he also gained experience.

In the following month, Zhao Gao displayed it more often. Although each time, the light only lasted for a moment, Zhao Gao could finally feel it, albeit using it in a clumsy manner. On a particular day, Zhao Gao was still slashing the iron rod as usual, when all of a sudden, the system notification sounded in the sky.

“Enter Evolution points!”

“A cogitation for the host, quickly comprehends.”

As soon as this voice sounded, Zhao Gao lost consciousness.

In this instance, Zhao Gao was standing at the top of the mountain with his eyes closed. He was not moving at all.

Suddenly, Zhao Gao moved. He held the large saber and slowly practiced his Basic Saber Art.

Sweep, Cleave, Plow, Slice, Nail, Slash, Strike. Every move seemed as slow as a turtle, but the power that emanated from every move made it clear that this was not a dance of the old folks.

Time passed as he practiced the basic saber techniques over and over again. It was not until a year later, Zhao Gao’s figure suddenly changed from practicing the basic saber techniques to practicing the Basic Saber Art.

While Zhao Gao was practicing his Basic Saber Art, his saber shone brightly. The cold saber light quickly tore through the air.

“Swish! Swish! Swish!” The sound of air being torn apart by his saber sounded like firecrackers.

Day after day, month after month, each time what was seen was Zhao Gao’s saber flashing. His figure could not be seen at all.

Finally, on the day when the thirty-first year was almost over, Zhao Gao’s figure stopped moving He stood silently in front of the iron bar with his eyes closed. Then using his right hand, he raised his large saber high.

All of a sudden, the saber in Zhao Gao’s hand emitted a burst of light.

A closer look revealed that the blade of the large saber was covered with a thin layer of blue gauze.

Just like in a sci-fi movie, the blue gauze wrapped tightly around the blade, energizing

This blue gauze started to change inexplicably. Finally, it transformed it into a lifelike, energized saber. It encased the saber, turning it into a sharper and more dangerous weapon. It also widened the saber blade by one centimeter.

Zhao Gao, who had his eyes closed, then waved his saber forcefully.

The sharp energized blade cut from the top of the iron rod to the bottom. It looked as if it was cutting tofu.

He had cut the two-meter-long iron rod in half.

It was only at that moment that Zhao Gao opened his eyes.

He saw that he had cut the rod in half. In a daze, Zhao Gao tried to recall his feelings during the entire process. When his body was practicing the basic saber technique, his mind and consciousness seemed to be watching everything that was happening from a third perspective. He could also feel what his body was feeling.

As for the saber light, Zhao Gao felt it most clearly.

Zhao Gao silently picked up the saber. By him just thinking about it, the saber was once again encased by the light.

Zhao Gao observed the saber carefully as he held it in front of him. He could sense the sharpness of the blade, as well as the dangerous aura the saber light emitted.

Zhao Gao was more willing to call this “Attachment of the Saber Aura”.

This was a stage where the Saber Qi could not leave the body even after breaking through to the Intermediate level.

A characteristic of the Intermediate Saber Art was that it enabled the Saber Qi-that was in the body-to attach to the saber. This would allow him to slash apart the enemy’s weapon easily or pierce through the enemy’s armor.

Being able to use the Saber Qi meant that his saber technique had already broken through to the Intermediate level. Now, he only needed to think about it and he would naturally be able to display the saber light. To maintain the saber light, he would then use the energy from the Qi stats in his body.

Not only would this make the saber technique more powerful, it would also allow him to kill the enemy sooner. He would then be the only one standing in battle, while the enemy sleep forever.

Before Zhao Gao could think further, he felt a familiar pulling sensation again.

Zhao Gao’s figure on the mountain peak blurred for a moment before it disappeared completely.

In reality, on the Field No. 10 training ground, Zhao Gao suddenly opened his eyes.

His movements were all seen by Ma Feifei, who was guarding him. “How is it? How is it?” As soon as she saw Zhao Gao open his eyes, Ma Feifei could not wait to ask about his condition.

However, Zhao Gao’s eyes were hollow, and when he heard her voice, he could only look at her instinctively. He was stunned and did not say anything

There was nothing Ma Feifei could do when she saw this situation. She could not imagine how many levels Zhao Gao had advanced. After coming out of it, he actually had to slowly recover from the trance of time.

Every time his skill level increased, his consciousness would be pulled to the peak of the mountain to learn and cultivate. It was as if he had been cultivating for many years.

However, she had also upgraded her skill level. Yet, she was not like Zhao Gao who needed to recover slowly.

Now, she could only helplessly follow Zhao Gao closely, just in case anything happened to him.

“Gather!”

Whenever she did not want anything to happen, something would happen. She had never felt the day pass so quickly before.

It felt like Chiliarch Yu had just left, and just as they left their bowls in the carriage, Chiliarch Yu had come over.

Ma Feifei quickly pulled Zhao Gao into formation and stood close to him. She tried to look after him as best as she could.

“Black Stone Fist training, begin!”

As soon as Chiliarch Yu gave the order, Ma Feifei quickly looked over to Zhao Gao. She was afraid that he would still be motionless.

However, to her relief, when Zhao Gao heard the command, his body instinctively followed everyone and started practicing the Black Stone Fist.
