Chapter 15: Luo Jin

After breakfast, Yu Mo came to the open space by the river and began to practice swordsmanship.

Yu Mo didn't rush to start practicing the Jueyun Sword, but started with the most basic swings, slashes, and stabs, which can be regarded as a kind of warm-up, and Reverse Yu also told him that the comprehension of the sword momentum does not necessarily require strong sword skills, but to understand the origin of the sword. So in the morning breeze, Yu Mo waved the light star in his hand over and over again.

The time soon came to the afternoon, Yu Mo gnawed a few pieces of jerky, and after resting for a while, he came to the area where Master Bai taught him Luo Palm yesterday and began to practice palms.

According to the method taught by Master Bai yesterday, Yu Mo drew the spiritual power in his body from the dantian, extended the veins of the human body to his left hand, and intertwined the spiritual power in the palm of his hand. At this point, Yu Mo has no problem, and the next thing he needs to practice is how to attach this net to the target.

For a force cultivator, the killing of fists and feet is always pure strength, but at this moment, the Luo palm that Yu Mo cultivates is not. Luo Palm gives people a feeling of weakness as a whole when he comes out of the palm, there is no strength at all where the palm passes, and the damage method of Luo Palm is also different from the simple strength of force cultivation, it is stacked by spiritual power, so "Luo Zhang" is not a set of force cultivation martial arts, but spiritual cultivation martial arts, but it is borrowed from the shelf of force cultivation.

Yu Mo glanced at the net-like spiritual power condensed in his hand, and he tried to wave his hand towards the tree trunk on the side, but as he set up his move and waved forward, with a negligence, the spiritual power in his hand dispersed again.

"Don't be in a hurry to beat this Luo Jin first, try to maintain this spiritual power while moving your palm." Bai Zhi saw that Yu Mo had failed again, so he taught him the Tao.

So Yu Mo regained his spiritual power, and a faint cyan light appeared on Yu Mo's left hand, and then he began to slowly move his palm. Luo Zhang's movements are very simple, it is the most basic palm technique, and the only requirement is that the palms are in more contact with the target in order to superimpose spiritual power. This set of palm techniques is very easy for Yu Mo to fight without condensing spiritual power, but when he uses spiritual power, it becomes very weird, and he often cares about one or the other.

"Apprentice, don't condense your spiritual power today, just practice ordinary palm techniques." Bai Zhi thought for a while and said.

"Master, I don't think it's difficult to use this palm technique, and it's not difficult to use spiritual power to simply turn into Luo Jin in your hands, but why is it so difficult to combine the two?" Yu Mo asked Master.

"For mortals, the energy of an individual is limited, and when people put their energy into one thing, it is naturally not the same as when they divide their energy into two things at the same time. Compared with mortals, our spiritual cultivation has an innate advantage in spiritual knowledge, of course, the strength of this advantage is also divided into people, and when spiritual cultivation reaches a certain level, spiritual consciousness will be further strengthened. I said that this Luo Palm is not something you can cultivate at this stage, but your spiritual sense is stronger than ordinary spiritual cultivation, so I taught you this Luo Zhang, but your strength than ordinary spiritual cultivation does not mean that you can easily master Luo Palm at this stage, if you want to master this martial art at this stage, you still have to make unremitting efforts. Bai Zhi explained.

"I understand, Master, what I'm going to practice now is to use both minds, right?" Yu Mo replied.

"I'm letting you only practice palm techniques now, because I want you to form a certain muscle memory, so as to reduce your need for palm control, and instead be able to concentrate on controlling Luo Jin." Bai Zhi said.

"Wouldn't it be better if I kept practicing this set of palms until I could make a move without thinking?" Yu Mo then asked.

"That's not good, the cost of time is not to mention for the time being, when you form such a strong muscle memory, it will have an impact when you practice other martial arts, sometimes you will unconsciously exert force in the direction of the palm, so that your strength will be limited, this is not advisable, what you have to do now is to practice your palm technique to the point where you can fight with a little heart, and then control Luo Jin as much as possible." Bai Zhi patiently explained.

"Yes, Master." After speaking, Yu Mo began to practice the palm technique.

In this way, he practiced sword in the morning and palm practice in the afternoon for two or three days, and Yu Mo finally made some progress.

Still next to the same woods, Yu Mo's luck spiritual power, cyan spiritual power gathered in his hand to form a net, slowly raised his palm, and then slapped his palm on the trunk of a tree, and a faint cyan net spiritual power appeared at the place where it was hit, but before Mo was happy, this spiritual power dissipated.

"Master, what's going on? I obviously attached Luo Jin to it. Yu Mo was puzzled.

"You change the wood attribute spiritual power to try." Bai Zhi said.

According to the master's words, Yu Mo drew the wood attribute spiritual power out of the small green cyclone in the dantian, and slapped the tree at the same place according to the way just now, and the green net-like Luo Jin was firmly attached to the trunk.

"Master, why did you just change the spiritual power of the wood attribute?" Yu Mo didn't understand.

"It's not that the wind attribute spiritual power is not good, but the wood attribute spiritual power is more suitable. What was the first thing you felt when you thought of the wind attribute? It's agile and unfettered, right, and the wood attribute already has the property of climbing, so it is much easier to use the wood attribute than the wind attribute. Elemental properties are a subject of great knowledge, especially for a spiritual cultivator like yours who has a spiritual vein of all things. Bai Zhi said slowly.

Yu Mo nodded thoughtfully, for the characteristics of each attribute, he still needs a long time of cultivation to comprehend, but now he has to look at the power of the Luo Palm that he has worked so hard to cultivate.

Yu Mo urged Luo Jin, who was attached to the trunk, and a muffled sound appeared on the trunk, but the trunk was intact, only a few leaves had been dropped. Seeing this scene in front of him, Yu Mo was a little depressed, the Luo palm he had worked so hard to practice only had such a little power?

"Stinky boy, what do you want? Luo Zhang, naturally you have to list layers and explode at the same time to do harm, you have a layer of Luo Jin attached, how much power do you want? Seeing that Yu Mo was a little disappointed, Bai Zhi didn't have a good airway.

"yes, I forgot to list the layers, I'll try again." Yu Mo's head slapped, swept away the decadence just now, and re-established the formation.

This time, he used his spiritual power to quickly attach the first layer of wood attribute power to the trunk of the tree, and then started the second layer, and slowly stacked the second layer according to the method just now, but just when he wanted to stack the third layer, the wood attribute spiritual power cyclone in the dantian bottomed out.

There is no way, there is no spiritual power, so I have to try one or two layers of elemental power, Yu Mo urged the force, and two extremely interspaced explosions came, and a small pit appeared on the trunk.

"With your current cultivation realm, it's okay to be able to hit three times, of course, if you master the attachment method of other attributes, you can hit more layers, and when you understand the elemental characteristics, you can also hit higher damage or unexpected effects through different elemental combinations. Let's do this today, and from tomorrow you will concentrate on improving the realm, and when you have ascended to the spiritual environment and mastered the attachment of multiple attributes, you can go to the forest to experience it. Bai Zhi saw that Yu Mo, who could use the three-layer Luo Jin in the Spirit Realm, also sighed secretly, is this the legendary divine spirit vein! It's really talented.

"yes, I can finally go out and practice. By the way, Master, I forgot to ask you, we are now on the edge of the center of the Yongchang Forest, but why are there no spirit beasts attacking us? And how did you know there was a cave behind the waterfall? Speaking of this, Yu Mo, who had just returned to the cave, suddenly remembered that it was the master who showed him the way more than half a year ago.

"Isn't the cave behind this waterfall built when I traveled to the mainland and absorbed the aura here, at that time I had an agreement not to disturb each other with a few big demons in the center of the forest, thinking that after so many years, they still abide by the agreement of the year, it is not easy." Seeing Yu Mo ask, Bai Zhi brought up the origin of this cave.

"So that's the case, no wonder we've been here for so long without a demon beast to bother." Yu Mo suddenly realized.

"Master, have you seen a lot of interesting things when you traveled to the mainland? Tell me about it. Yu Mo heard some of the master's past and felt very curious, so he wanted to hear more. He told the master about this so that the rabbits he had caught earlier could be threaded with branches and roasted on the fire.

"Do you want to hear about the things of the teacher, okay, then the teacher will tell you about it, alas, time flies too fast, I don't know where to start." Bai Zhi looked at Yu Mo, who was full of curiosity, and he was also very fond of him, after all, he was just a child who was not yet eleven years old.

So Bai Zhi told Yu Mo about the past, Yu Mo roasted the rabbit, and Zhi Yu also appeared by the fire at some point, but she didn't speak, just listened quietly, sometimes Yu Mo would ask some stupid questions, but Bai Zhi would answer patiently. This scene reminded Zhi Yu of a lot of past events, and she had experienced more years than Bai Zhi.

Time passed slowly, the night was already deep, and in the sound of Bai Zhi's story, Yu Mo gradually fell asleep, which was the most restful sleep he had since the death of his parents.
