The next morning, Kyar stepped out of his tent, looked at the rising golden dawn on the horizon, listened to the gurgling of the river and the chirping of birds in the forest, and felt the warm sunshine and the gentle breeze blowing in his face. He stretched comfortably.
Kree was still fast asleep on her makeshift bed in the tent, having expended a lot of energy the night before.
Although Kree was curious about where Kyal's psychic abilities came from, she wouldn't force him to tell her if he didn't want to. However, to vent her resentment at being distrusted, she thoroughly exploited Kyal last night, and ended up being unable to get up because she was having too much fun.
Recalling what happened last night, Kyal smiled slightly with a hint of helplessness. Fortunately, his healing magic was already so proficient that he could restore his stamina and energy; otherwise, he would have been the one who collapsed in last night's fierce battle.
Kreeher is really enthusiastic about this kind of thing. Not only does raising the level cap tempt her to become stronger, but she also really enjoys this comfortable and stress-relieving exercise.
It's tough on Kayal; if it weren't for his healing magic, he probably would have to drink goji berry tea every day.
Then things will gradually develop into...
Kreeher: Elbow, come inside with me!
Kyrgyzstan: I can't do it tonight.
Shaking his head to banish all his unserious thoughts, Kayal walked to the riverbank to wash up.
The clear river water was slightly cool. Kayar cupped his hands in the water, wet his face, and washed it. He then took a sip of water to rinse his mouth and spit it out.
"Let's start our morning exercise."
Taking off his shirt, Kyal faced the river, watching the ceaselessly flowing water before him. He took a deep breath, and his mind gradually calmed down, entering the state of "still water and clear mirror".
Flowing water cannot reflect any image, but still water is like a mirror, able to humbly and honestly accept everything. Therefore, the phrase "clear mirror and still water" describes a state of mind that can face everything with a calm and sincere heart.
【Clear Mirror and Still Water】is a mental state skill. Entering this state, a person becomes calm and composed, without distractions, greatly improving concentration, reaction speed, and insight. No matter how intense the battle, one can remain calm. In daily training, it can also improve concentration and achieve twice the result with half the effort.
This was the first time that Kyal had entered the [Mirror of Still Water] state without using his skill slots, because he was very familiar with the skill from the memories he had copied. It was much simpler than he had imagined.
His next goal is to learn all the skills he has currently imitated and to memorize them into muscle memory through practice, which is undoubtedly a huge undertaking.
However, Kyal didn't care how hard or tiring it was. He had experienced the kind of thing that leads to mediocrity because of fear of hardship and fatigue before he transmigrated. Now that he had the chance to transmigrate again, he would never regret it again!
He can indeed switch between these skills by switching skill slots, but in that case, the number of skills he can use at the same time will be limited by the number of skill slots.
In Kyal's calm gaze, the fire of his will ignited within his watery eyes. In his eyes, a calm mind and a burning will merged and reflected each other, like water and fire in the same sky.
【Ignite】 is the state achieved after mastering the four basic elements of mental power. It can ignite willpower, strengthen beliefs, and allow any practice in this state to slowly open the vital pores and allow mental energy to flow out.
"call…"
Kyal exhaled a breath of stale air, clenched his fists and placed them on his waist, separated his feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, and squatted down in a standard horse stance.
This is one of the basic skills of martial arts. The horse stance is the most basic stance for practicing martial arts. Therefore, there are sayings such as "to learn martial arts, you must first practice the horse stance for three years" and "to learn to fight, you must first learn the horse stance". It is named so because the posture is like riding a horse and is as stable as a stake.
A proper horse stance can strengthen the kidneys and waist, invigorate muscles and replenish qi, regulate essence, energy and spirit, and also provide a stable lower body, good balance, making it less likely to be knocked down, and can also improve the body's reaction ability.
The saying goes, "Practicing martial arts without internal strength training is a waste of time in old age; practicing internal strength training without waist training will ultimately result in a lack of skill." This means that simply learning the moves in martial arts routines without actually training the muscles of the whole body in terms of gravity and endurance to generate internal strength will ultimately lead to nothing more than fancy but ineffective moves.
"Bang!"
Kyal thrust out a punch, a small popping sound echoing in the air, a horse stance punch.
With alternating hands, he threw a punch and slammed it back with the other, each punch delivered with full force, creating a continuous low rumble and explosion in the air.
Time passed gradually...
Kreeher slowly woke up from her sleep, got up and looked around, only to find that Kyal was no longer beside her.
"Are they already up?"
Kresh moved her slightly weak body, feeling sticky and uncomfortable from sweating too much last night. Her hair was also matted and messy.
Finding a comb, Kresh combed her long white hair. Long hair was beautiful, but it needed to be combed and styled every day, otherwise it would easily get tangled. She had thought about cutting it short, but decided against it now because she found that Kyal seemed to prefer women with long hair.
Kreeher caught a whiff of fragrance, a scent wafting in from outside the tent, a scent she had smelled the night before.
After getting dressed and stepping out of the tent, sure enough, Kyal had already started a fire and was preparing breakfast, which was probably wolf meat that had been smoked and preserved the night before.
Good morning, Kyal.
Seeing Kyal's perfectly proportioned, well-built, and athletic figure revealed by his shirtless appearance, Kresh's face flushed slightly, reminding her of what happened last night.
