It may not work at critical moments.

That's not good.

Li Banfeng thought about the fight with Huang Guangshi. He was stabbed in the cheek by an iron bar. He originally planned to escape, but failed.

He might have wanted to use the "Leakless Steps" technique at that time, but he lost his composure at the critical moment of life and death.

This technique is a test of mentality!

Use your mind to drive your steps.

I steal a step.

Li Banfeng took a step forward, but failed.

I'll take another step.

Not successful yet.

Watching Li Banfeng stumbling forward, Ma Wu frowned and said, "Brother Li, you are overthinking it. You have only been practicing for a few months, and you are already trying to reach the second level?"

"Let's prepare first, so that you won't be confused when you reach a higher level in the future. Brother Ma, do you know the third level of travel skills?"

"I don't know about that. The techniques of various sects are generally not recorded in books, especially the techniques above the third level. There are few practitioners, and they will not easily reveal the techniques. Only a few people know about them.

If there really is a book recording the techniques, it must be priceless, but I'm afraid it's not even in the Ma family library."

As they were talking, the two of them arrived at the swamp and quickly found the lump of clay.

This mass of clay was really hard to distinguish. It was almost the same as the mud everywhere in the swamp. Ma Wu knew the characteristics of the clay and said to Li Banfeng in a low voice, "The clay has a layer of black skirt. In places with water, you can see the black skirt moving."

Li Banfeng looked carefully and found that there was indeed something shaking on the edge of the black clay.

Overall, the clay looks a bit like a rotten jellyfish.

"Brother Li, you must move gently. The clay is a different species and has spirits. Once you make a loud noise, it will run away. You hold the jar first, and I'll take the clay."

Ma Wu put on gloves and took two steps into the swamp. He accidentally stepped into a mud pit and one of his feet began to sink.

In his haste to pull his foot out, his other foot also sank into the mud.

No, this swamp has changed! It is different from the last time he came here.

Ma Wu didn't dare to struggle any longer and turned around to look at Li Banfeng awkwardly.

Li Banfeng held the tin can and stood silently on the shore, watching Ma Wu getting shorter and shorter in the swamp.

…

After pulling Ma Wu out of the mud, Li Banfeng put on gloves and walked towards the ball of clay.

The trip to the swamp has a natural advantage. With every step Li Banfeng takes, he will sense the good or bad of the next step, which greatly reduces the risk of getting stuck in the mud.

About five steps away from the clay, there was a sound of water splashing, and the noise made by this step was quite loud.

The clay noticed something and the edges of the skirt began to vibrate rapidly.

Ma Wuyi frowned, the clay was about to escape.

He didn't dare to urge Li Banfeng, for fear that Li Banfeng would go to the wrong place in a hurry.

Li Banfeng took a quick step forward.

The clay body suddenly rolled over, trying to shrink under the mud.

Underestimated the speed of this thing.

Li Banfeng took another step forward.

The body of the clay has sunk into the mud.

Li Banfeng bent down, dug out the entire lump of clay from the mud and water, and put it back into the tin can.

"It was almost a waste of time." Li Banfeng smiled.

Ma Wu was stunned: "Brother Li, you just stole a step."

"What do you mean by stolen a step?" Li Banfeng looked puzzled.

Ma Wu didn't know how to explain it.

When the clay sank into the water, Li Banfeng was three steps away from it.

Three steps, more than two meters.

Unless Li Banfeng lay in the water, he would not be able to reach the clay.

In the moment of leaning over, he took a step, a big step.

The distance became one and a half steps, which allowed him to barely reach the clay.

When Li Banfeng walked out of the swamp, Ma Wu couldn't help but ask, "Brother Li, what level of cultivation are you at?"

Li Banfeng reviewed the action of digging the clay and realized that the distance was a bit strange.

"Otherwise I would say that this thing needs to be prepared in advance," Li Banfeng explained calmly, "Maybe you will be promoted soon."

Ma Wu didn't ask any more questions.

He never asked many questions about Li Banfeng.

Including why he was able to kill the first or even second level opponents? Why was he able to dispose of the bodies without leaving any traces after killing people? Why did he suddenly run to Green Water City to buy a record player? Why did he throw the record player away after buying it? Why was he able to get rid of Mrs. Moth? Why didn't he pay after eating the noodles?

Ma Wu didn't ask about these things, he knew he shouldn't ask.

But the incident before him made him unable to hold back.

He and Li Banfeng found the peddler on the same day and entered the Taoist sect on the same day. He had just passed the first level, but Li Banfeng had already reached the second level?

This is impossible.

Even if he took snake-banded pills every day, he couldn't do it.

Not to mention the Snake Spot Pill, even if you take one Black Blazing Pill a day, you can't do it!

What is the reason for this?

Could it be because he was illuminated by the sunlight?

He was able to survive even under the sunlight. Is this what they call a gifted person?

"Brother Li, what method did you use to practice? Can you give me some advice?" Ma Wu asked sincerely.

Li Banfeng thought for a moment and replied, "Practice mainly depends on your mentality. If your mentality is right, your practice will also be right."

Mentality?

Ma Wu was not familiar with this word.

It should be similar to the meaning of state of mind, right?

Is it because I am not devout enough in my practice?

Li Banfeng came to Lushui Bay from Yaowanggou, perhaps not just to avoid the Lu family, he was practicing!

When crossing the border, one must have experienced countless dangers. Traveling in danger can accumulate more time. He must have done this for the purpose of practicing.

His state of mind is much more pious than mine.

I seem to be obsessed with Huan Xiu, but can I really be as persistent as him?

We can't slack off any longer.

…

The two walked back to Lanyang Village. Not long after they entered the village, Tang Tianjin, the Song family's chief steward, came up to them.

There were three men following behind him. Ma Wu recognized them. They were thugs from the Song family.

What is this for?

Looking for trouble?

"Fifth Young Master, are you going hunting in Xindi again? What good stuff did you catch?" Tang Tianjin stroked his beard and smiled at Ma Wu.

Ma Wu pointed at the stinky fish on his shoulder and said, "I went to fish for peaches, but my luck was bad. The peach trees didn't come."

Tang Tianjin smiled and said, "If there are too few fish, the peach trees will naturally be reluctant to come."

Ma Wu smiled bitterly: "There are only two of us. Even if we want to bring more stinky fish, we can't carry them."

Tang Tianjin nodded: "It's hard for you, Fifth Young Master. Seeing you working so hard, our boss feels bad for you. How about this, we send a few more people to help you tomorrow?"

"No, I don't have that kind of luck. I just want to pick a few peaches to earn a living. How dare I disturb Mr. Song?"

"How can this be called a disturbance? This is business, there is something to discuss and talk about. Please follow me, our boss is waiting for you in the warehouse."

Ma Wu knew that things were not going well. He glanced at Li Banfeng first, telling him to prepare to run away. Then he turned to Tang Tianjin and said with a smile, "Butler Tang, please tell Master Song that we brothers just want to earn a living. If we have offended you, we will come to your house another day to apologize."

"Don't want to go?" Tang Tianjin's face darkened. "You have to leave today, whether you want to or not!"

Upon hearing this, Ma Wu turned and left.

But his body twisted around and his legs were out of control.

Follow him, follow him!

There was an idea stirring in my mind over and over again.

This idea slowly took control of Ma Wu's thoughts.

Ma Wu walked towards Tang Tianjin step by step.

Oh no, this is a mind cultivator!

He controlled me with his telekinesis.

Ma Wu was still resisting subconsciously, but it was of no avail.

Because his main thought was controlled.

Everyone has many thoughts in their mind, but there is one that is the most important, and this thought determines a person's behavior.

Mind cultivation can control the most important thoughts in a person's mind, and thus control that person's actions.

Tang Tianjin smiled at Ma Wu and turned to look at Li Banfeng.

He didn't know who this person was. He knew that Ma Wu had a helper, but because Li Banfeng was a home repairman, he always ignored this person.

It’s strange, Ma Wu has come over, why is he standing there motionless?

Could it be that his cultivation level is high enough to break my telekinesis?

If he had that level of accomplishment, why would he follow Ma Wu and suffer this hardship?

What is he doing there?

Like talking?

Li Banfeng was indeed speaking, but Tang Tianjin couldn't hear clearly what he said.

It doesn’t matter if he can’t hear clearly, Li Banfeng is not talking to him.

"They asked you to go over, why didn't you go over?"

"What would I do in the past? I don't know him."

“But I think I should go.”

"If you want to go, go ahead."

"How can I get past you if you just stand there?"

"How long do you two want to keep arguing? This is a war, can't you see?"

Tang Tianjin was stunned.

He didn't understand Li Banfeng's situation.

Like a normal person, Li Banfeng also has many thoughts.

But Tang Tianjin didn't find the most important idea.

Tang Tianjin had never encountered such a situation, but he was confident in his techniques.

He is a second-level cultivator, and he doesn't believe that he can't deal with such a young man.

He increased the intensity of his technique and suddenly felt a splitting headache.

Li Banfeng had countless thoughts and opinions in his mind, and an argument broke out. The sound of the argument penetrated into Tang Tianjin's mind through telekinesis.

This person is really different.

He had no overriding idea.

The thoughts in Li Banfeng's mind are not prioritized, but equal.

Just as Tang Tianjin was about to retract his technique, Li Banfeng suddenly came up to him.

Small step?

Second floor travel repair...

Before Tang Tianjin could react, Li Banfeng cut his neck with a sickle.

The three thugs stepped forward together, their Tang swords drawn, and they chopped the two men down to the ground one after another.

The remaining one ran away, and Ma Wu suddenly looked up and glanced at him.

Ma Wu, who had passed a level, learned the skill of confusing the thug. The thug trembled, lost his balance and slipped. Li Banfeng raised his hand and hooked a sickle into his head.

"Brother Ma, look around to see if there are any more ambushes?"

Ma Wu understood and knew that Li Banfeng didn't want to be seen when he was collecting the bodies, so he quickly went to investigate from a distance.

Li Banfeng brought the four bodies into Suishenju. His wife yawned and sang, "Thank you for your hard work, my husband. I will prepare the ingredients right now. You have to hurry up and prepare these few. I think they can't hold on any longer."

Li Banfeng said, "How about I get them some herbs?"

"Don't bother, just eat faster."

Li Banfeng left his residence, found Ma Wu, and prepared to return to the wooden house.

Ma Wu said to Li Banfeng, "Brother Li, let's go back and pack our things. We can't stay in Lanyang Village anymore. The Song family won't let us go. We have to find another place."

"Is there anywhere else to go?"

"There are plenty of places to go. The Lu family is in chaos now, and they don't care about you. We can find a peaceful town near Green Water City to live in first. But those places are not close to the new land, so we have to find a new way to make a living."

Li Banfeng thought for a moment and shook his head, saying, "I really can't bear to give up such a good business. I'd better do another business. The old man just mentioned the Song family warehouse. What is that place?"

Ma Wu's eyes widened as he asked, "Brother Li, what do you want to do?"

Li Banfeng looked very calm: "I just want to ask if he has any good stuff in his warehouse?"

ps: Finding the opponent’s core thought is the core of the mind cultivation technique.
