Chapter 152 Breaking Through the Shackles (First Order Request)

"Is it as weird as you say?" Jiang Xuan was surprised and a little bit unbelievable about what Mr. Sha said.

This kind of drill ability is not only possessed by Jiang Xuan, but also by Jiang Xuan's father Jiang Yuan.

To be precise, it was his father Jiang Yuan who discovered and guided Jiang Xuan's ability.

It can be said that Jiang Yuan was the one who enlightened Jiang Xuan on this kind of drill ability.

But this ability sounded so strange in Sha Lao's words that it was hard for Jiang Xuan to believe it. Because although his father Jiang Yuan was also a warrior, he was not a cultivator.

Jiang Yuan and Jiang Xuan, father and son, are both warriors, not cultivators. How could they successively possess an ability that even cultivators envy?

This really doesn't make sense.

However, Jiang Xuan still had to keep the fact that his father, Jiang Yuan, was a martial artist a secret. Because of this, he couldn't tell Sha Lao that his father also possessed this skill.

It is easy to imagine that if Jiang Xuan said that his father Jiang Yuan also possessed this ability, Mr. Sha would never believe that Jiang Xuan's father Jiang Yuan was just an ordinary person.

If that happens, it will expose his father Jiang Yuan's identity as a warrior.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xuan gave up the idea of ​​talking to Mr. Sha about his father Jiang Yuan's guidance on his training skills, and instead decided to continue asking Mr. Sha more about this training skill.

"Old Sha, if this ability is really as you said, it should show a crushing momentum in the competition among warriors. Why didn't I have a similar experience when fighting before?" Jiang Xuan touched his nose and asked Old Sha.

"Hehe, you're anxious, aren't you?" Old Sha laughed and drank a few more sips of tea.

"You warriors can use this ability, and cultivators can use it, so it can naturally grow."

Jiang Xuan was thoughtful after hearing this and began to recall the scene when he first discovered this training ability.

It was the middle of winter, and Jiang Xuan and Jiang Xian, accompanied by their father, began hunting wild animals that were scattered around the edge of the Yunnan forest.

The hunting in the past few days went smoothly. Jiang Xuan and his companions encountered relatively small wild animals. Although the animals were in groups of three or five, they were not big in size, so they always managed to get something.

A few days later, when Jiang Xuan and Jiang Xian were hunting a medium-sized wild beast, a huge beast suddenly jumped out of the forest.

Jiang Xuan still clearly remembers the look on his father's face as he looked at him from a distance that day, an expression filled with fear.

However, Jiang Xuan understood that his father's fear at that time was not the fear of the beast, but the fear that Jiang Xuan and Jiang Xian, brother and sister, were about to fall into danger.

Afterwards, Jiang Xuan learned from his father that the beast was about to become a ferocious beast. It was very powerful and no ordinary person could contend with it.

That day, Jiang Yuan mobilized all his strength and chased the beast no matter how hard he tried, but he still managed to subdue it and let it slap Jiang Xuan twice.

Jiang Xuan dodged the first palm strike, and the second palm strike slashed across Jiang Xuan's arm.

Fortunately, before setting off that day, Jiang Yuan gave Jiang Xuan and Jiang Xian, brother and sister, a pair of lighter arm guards, which saved Jiang Xuan from being injured when attacked by the wild beast.

That night, Jiang Xuan couldn't fall asleep. He tossed and turned in bed, his mind filled with the slow motion of the beast emerging from the forest during the day.

Every step the beast took, every flap of its wings, and even every shake of its head were deeply engraved in Jiang Xuan's mind and could not be erased.

Gradually, the beast's movements became more three-dimensional and realistic.

What surprised Jiang Xuan even more was that the movements of the beast in his mind seemed to slowly begin to follow his thoughts. Every time the beast in his mind made a move, Jiang Xuan would try to deconstruct the beast's movements. As soon as Jiang Xuan made such a thought, the beast would further react according to the movement in Jiang Xuan's mind.

All this was as if Jiang Xuan was fighting with the beast in a dream.

Therefore, Jiang declared it a battle for dreams.

Since they were attacked by wild beasts that day, perhaps considering the safety of Jiang Xuan and Jiang Xian, Jiang Yuan reduced the number of times he let them go out hunting.

It was also during that time that Jiang Xuan often hid in his room alone when he was not going out, fighting in his dreams.

Since the beast that attacked him that day only used two palms, Jiang Xuan combined the beast's movement patterns and habits and imagined all the possible attacks that the beast could launch with those two palms.

But with just two palms, the attack routines are really limited.

Jiang Xuan incorporated the behavioral habits and attack methods of other similar beasts he had seen into the dream battle, enriching the dream battle with many common and uncommon attack methods, defense methods, and even escape methods of the beasts.

Jiang Xuan has been obsessed with martial arts since he was a child, and he enjoys the various uses of dream battles.

However, although he enjoyed it, Jiang Xuan never thought that this kind of dream battle had any practical significance. It was just a way for a martial arts fan to pass the time.

Finally, the following spring, during another hunting trip, Jiang Xuan, in front of Jiang Yuan and his sister Jiang Xian, dodged a beast's attacks for more than a dozen times! In the end, he even made the beast leave in frustration.

This move also made Jiang Yuan stunned.

Afterwards, Jiang Yuan carefully inquired about the ins and outs of Jiang Xuan’s dream battle.

According to Jiang Yuan, Jiang Xuan's ability to fight in dreams is based on his existing combat experience and the ability to practice combat.

However, Jiang Yuan only said that this ability was of great help to warriors and gave Jiang Xuan further guidance, but did not mention anything else.

There was no mention of what Mr. Sha said today.

What Jiang Xuan is puzzled about now is that if this training ability is really as strong as Mr. Sha said, why didn't his father, who is a warrior who also possesses this ability, explain its great benefits to Jiang Xuan?

……

"Boy...boy, what are you thinking about?" Old Sha's face appeared in front of Jiang Xuan, interrupting Jiang Xuan's thoughts.

"Nothing." Jiang Xuan collected his thoughts and replied.

"Regardless of whether this rehearsal ability is as beneficial to monks as you claim, it is actually very useful to me right now. Do you know of any way to improve this ability?"

Although Jiang Xuan discovered early on that he had the ability to practice combat, his practice ability has been stuck at the current stage for some time and has not made any progress.

If Jiang Xuan wanted to improve his combat skills, he had to find a practical way to improve them. And Old Sha was a warrior he could rely on.

"Improvement? It is possible, but forget about reaching the warrior stage." Old Sha smiled bitterly and stroked his gray beard.

"You know, I'm only a peak warrior, not a cultivator. Judging from the level you've described, I'm afraid I've already reached the pinnacle of a warrior's abilities in this exercise. To advance further, I must first break free from the shackles of a warrior and become a cultivator."
