"Young master, you are finally back." Knight Fred opened the city gate for Levi and welcomed Levi's arrival.

"I hope nothing happened in the territory during the days I was away." Levi asked.

"Everything is normal in the territory. Did you have a smooth trip?"

"good."

After exchanging greetings with Knight Fred, Levi returned to his room.

This time, he spent all the gold coins at the bottom of the iron box. Overnight, Levi became a pauper again.

“But this time the harvest was great.”

Two bottles of ambergris, two books on blood breathing techniques, a stable sales channel for weapons and armor, and some miscellaneous books.

Levi has basically achieved the purpose of this trip.

Now everything is ready, all that’s left is to prepare the secret medicine.

The next day, Li Wei had a good sleep and the sky was bright.

The preparation of the Black Snake Secret Medicine does not require any technical skills. It is different from the alchemy and medicine refining in the previous life. It does not require any fire refining.

Just mix them in a fixed proportion and then knead them into small pills.

Therefore, Levi successfully prepared two hundred secret medicines.

If too much secret medicine is prepared, the effectiveness of the ambergris will be diluted too much and it will not be able to exert its effect.

According to the recipe, these two bottles of ambergris can make about 200 pills.

At the rate of one pill a day, it would be enough for Levi to practice for the next six months.

After the secret medicine was prepared, Levi swallowed it, prepared the food, and then he couldn't wait to start practicing the Black Snake Breathing Method.

I've been outside these two days and have missed out on my breathing technique.

About an hour later, Levi completed a breathing exercise.

[Black Snake Breathing Skill Proficiency +10]

"Taking the secret medicine is different. Under normal circumstances, I can only increase my proficiency by 1-2 points after practicing the breathing method once. With the secret medicine, it can be increased several times. Unfortunately, at the quasi-knight stage, I can only take one secret medicine a day. I can't take more than that. Too much is as bad as too little."

After taking the Black Snake Secret Medicine, he clearly felt that when he was practicing the Black Snake Breathing Method, there was a cold current traveling through his body. This cold current seemed to be the effect of the Black Snake Secret Medicine. With the blessing of this cold current, Levi maintained a high level of concentration and was in an extremely efficient state of practice.

After practicing the breathing method, wisps of white air began to diffuse from the pores of Levi's body. After the white air, some black stains were eliminated from his body.

"This... this black snake secret medicine actually has such an effect, it can expel some impurities from my body."

I eliminated toxins, took a bath, and felt relaxed.

Levi took advantage of his good condition and practiced the Golden Cross Slash.

[Golden Cross Slash Proficiency +3]

"Yes, the Black Snake Secret Medicine seems to allow people to maintain a high level of concentration, thereby improving efficiency and entering a state similar to low-end enlightenment. Therefore, not only the breathing method, but also the effect of sword skills training is far better than usual. It's a good thing."

Not only that, he didn't know if it was Levi's illusion, but he always felt that his physical fitness had been slightly improved after taking the Black Snake Breathing Method. He guessed that it might be a special effect brought about by the first use.

He practiced the breathing technique and the Golden Cross Slash several more times and completed today's training task.

Then Levi took out the Frostwolf Breathing Technique and Giant Bear Breathing Technique that he bought at the auction.

These two breathing methods are both superficial breathing methods, and they are blood breathing methods. Among all breathing methods, they are the least valuable.

Levi was the first to open the inheritance scroll of the Giant Bear Breathing Technique.

On the parchment, there is a pattern of a little man similar to the Black Snake Breathing Method in his own life. The little man is doing various different postures. If the Black Snake Breathing Method is mainly weird, then the posture of the little man in the Giant Bear Breathing Method is mainly open and close, more like some fierce boxing techniques in the previous life.

In the middle of these little men was a giant bear as tall as a mountain. The giant bear roared towards the sky, exuding a wild aura.

This is the family emblem of the Rock Bear family [Giant Rock Bear].

"Obviously, the Giant Bear Breathing Technique is a breathing technique that focuses on strength. This complements my Black Snake Breathing Technique."

Levi looked at another Frostwolf Breathing Technique. The content in the inheritance scroll was similar to that of the Giant Bear Breathing Technique. It was nothing more than some patterns of little people in different poses, with a giant silver-white wolf in the middle. This was the family emblem of the Frostwolf family [Silver Frostwolf].

Levi noticed that the appearance of this giant wolf was somewhat similar to the mountain wolf king he had killed, not only in appearance, but also in its expression and aura.

But anyway, the mountain wolf king is already dead and has turned into ashes, so it doesn’t matter if they are related.

"The Frost Wolf Breathing Technique is a breathing technique that focuses on reaction speed and agility. That's good. If I can learn these two breathing techniques, the Black Snake focuses on defense, the Rock Bear focuses on strength, and the Frost Wolf focuses on speed. Wouldn't I be a polygonal warrior?" Levi said with a smile.

"Let's start with the Frost Wolf Breathing Technique. I'm still strong enough now, and I have armor and the Black Snake Breathing Technique for defense, so I don't need any for now. What I lack most now is speed and flexibility. There is no martial art in the world that is indestructible except speed!"

"First try to see if you can add the Frostwolf Breathing Technique to the proficiency panel. As long as it can be added to the panel, let alone the Breathing Technique, even if it is the Forbidden Technique of God, as long as you give me some time, I will find a way to get it to the maximum level for you."

The proficiency panel is Levi's greatest reliance.

It seems that this golden finger is unremarkable and can only reflect proficiency.

But this is the most amazing part of Golden Finger, which means that some extremely difficult things can all be reflected through digitized proficiency.

Levi can improve his skills just by gaining proficiency like playing a game.

All the work will be rewarded and there will be feedback.

Cultivation is no longer a blind and rough perception based on experience, but has a clear reference and a refined goal that keeps moving forward.

Getting started with breathing techniques will not be accomplished in a day or two.

It took Levi half a month to master the Black Snake Breathing Method.

Although the Frost Wolf Breathing Technique is at a basic level, it will take some time for Levi to fully comprehend and understand the patterns and postures.

In addition to practicing breathing techniques, Levi was not idle. He seemed to have endless energy. Whenever he had free time, he would go for blacksmithing. He was going to start studying the drawings given to him by the knight and was going to try to forge armor. In three months, a batch of goods would be delivered.

As the days passed, Levi's life became extremely fulfilling. In the castle yard, the three brothers were also growing happily. With huge amounts of food entering their stomachs, their bodies were expanding at a speed almost visible to the naked eye. Every time they were not seen for a while, they would get a little bigger.

Jade Calendar Year 1006, the third day of the Flower Moon.

Levi also learned from Knight Fred that his two neighbors, the heirs of Frostwind Territory and Rock Territory, had sold their ancestral fiefdoms one after another, and moved their entire clans to Frozen City, becoming the lowest-ranking landless nobles. The buyer of the fiefdoms was the Church of Holy Light.

It is said that the church is going to build a new church in the Silver Moon Territory so that the holy light of the loving Father in Heaven can warm the people in this extremely cold land.

Li Wei cursed in his heart.

He always had a premonition that his peaceful life would be disrupted by the arrival of the church.
