Warren's Rise and Fall

The next morning, Wang Lunwo stretched and got up from the ground. Yesterday's events were still fresh in his mind. As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning, but at least the Crusher Centurion is willing to teach me a little bit, so I should be satisfied. Well begun is half done, so I'll take advantage of today's free time to talk to the Crusher Centurion.

Wang Lunwo walked towards the Earth Crusher Centurion's tent and asked weakly, "Earth Crusher Centurion, are you up yet?"

The Crusher Centurion came out of the account room and rubbed his eyes. "I say, you are really eager to learn. You are doing what you said yesterday today."

"I'm not inviting you earlier rather than later."

"Okay, as you wish, I will tell you about it." The Earth Crusher Centurion did not act pretentiously, but taught Wang Lunwo seriously. "The skills and martial arts I practice are all related to the earth element in this world. It is a bit like performing magic when performed, but this is a real skill, and martial arts are different from skills. Skills refer to the formulas that improve one's own cultivation during practice, and martial arts are a kind of skills evolved from one's own skills in actual combat. So when I heard you confuse skills and martial arts yesterday, I knew that you were an inexperienced rookie, and there was no one to guide you, and you were teleported here, so it is extremely difficult for you to make further progress in your practice."

"What the Centurion of the Broken Earth said is absolutely right. I hope the Centurion of the Broken Earth can give me more advice. I will be all ears." Wang Lunwo took the opportunity to salute.

"The technique I practice is intended to improve my affinity with the earth element in the universe. When I reach a certain affinity, I can use the earth element in the universe for my own benefit. When I reach a higher level, I can even control the earth element in the universe at will. Do you understand this?"

"I understand, I understand. Please continue."

"After you have the skills, why worry about not having martial arts? The so-called martial arts are the evolution of the skills. For example, the earth trap I used to fight the monsters on the battlefield yesterday is a kind of martial arts. Of course, I call it the Earth Trap Flow. It's up to others to call it what they want, but that's what I call it."

"It's very fitting."

"You have also seen that when your affinity with the earth element between heaven and earth reaches a certain level, you can naturally create your own martial arts. This is not difficult. Let's stop here today. You have gained a lot. Go back and comprehend it on your own."

"Okay, thank you, Crusher Centurion." Wang Lunwo bowed and said goodbye to the Crusher Centurion.

Although the Crusher Centurion did not teach me the formula of the technique, he also answered many of my confusions about cultivation. He was a good guy. Wang Lunwo hummed a little tune all the way back to where he had stayed before. Since more than half of their team had been injured, they could no longer be called a team. They had to wait until the next reinforcement of new soldiers to regroup. By then, he would be a veteran. Although there was no team organization, several veterans and Captain Shi were still resting in the previous place. Wang Lunwo was naturally here at the moment.

"Let's start to comprehend the affinity with the earth element between heaven and earth today." Wang Lunwo said as he sat cross-legged and began to practice.

Captain Shi just got up and saw Wang Lunwo sitting like an ascetic, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. As a captain who has reached the perfection of the Blood Refining Realm, he himself has a lot of knowledge of cultivation, so he slowly walked forward. "Wang Lunwo, your little brother, the Crushing Earth Centurion, probably forgot to tell you that it is actually not very useful to just comprehend the elements of the world in the Blood Refining Realm. Even if you have a high affinity, it is useless without a technique. And even if you have a technique, you can't use the power of the technique if your realm is too low, not to mention using your own martial arts with the technique, just like my petrified skin. I only have such a defensive martial art after I reached the perfection of the Blood Refining Realm. But it's not too early for you to start comprehending the elements of the world now." Captain Shi yawned, "You continue to comprehend here, I'm going to take a nap."

Captain Shi's words undoubtedly opened another window for Wang Lunwo to practice. As expected, I knew that these centurions would not tell me everything so easily. Captain Shi was awesome. We had indeed drunk together and fought together, so our relationship was different. Although I am only in the early stage of Blood Refining, this does not prevent me from perceiving the earth element between heaven and earth. I will first improve my affinity. When I have the skills, it will be easier to practice. With this in mind, Wang Lunwo devoted himself to the practice of perceiving the earth element between heaven and earth.

One hour passed, two hours passed... Wang Lunwo still had nothing to show for it, and he began to doubt himself. What was going on? Was it because I was not talented enough, or did I not work hard enough, or did I not have enough understanding? You have to give me a reason. I have been practicing for five hours, and I haven't even had lunch yet, but this is the result. It's true that the master only leads you to the door, but you have to practice on your own. No, the Crusher Centurion is not my master in the strict sense. He just told me some methods. Besides, there is no master who keeps secrets. Isn't this the consistent style of Blue Star? It has spread here. Thinking of this, Wang Lunwo gave up the idea of ​​continuing to practice and got up to have dinner.

Today, the military camp was still noisy. The soldiers were beaming with joy, as if they were still immersed in yesterday's victory. The celebration banquet continued as it did yesterday, with wine and food filling the tables, and everyone was laughing and talking in a warm atmosphere.

Some soldiers toasted to celebrate yesterday's victory, recalling the fierce battle with the monsters, with pride in their eyes. Others sat together, talking about future plans, full of longing for the future. The whole barracks was shrouded in a cheerful and relaxed atmosphere, as if the shadow of war had been far away.

While Wang Lunwo was chewing on his food, he muttered to himself, "Are these people too indulgent? Although the monster was defeated yesterday, it was only injured and fled. It might attack again someday. Aren't these people worried? That's right. There was only one monster in the Four Pillars Realm in the previous few times, and the three deputy city lords are all in the Four Pillars Realm. I think the monster can't make any waves."

Behind the joy, some soldiers, like Wang Lunwo, remained vigilant. They knew that the habits of the monsters were unpredictable and could not be taken lightly. Although it seemed calm at the moment, no one could be sure whether the monsters would attack again. They silently observed the movements around them and secretly prayed for the continuation of peace.
