Chapter 2: The New World

The night sky, full of stars, deep but lonely. The faint moonlight sprinkled down, as if everything was so melancholy and desolate.

In a house in Muyang City, the colorful daytime in the garden seems to be much darker at this time.

A woman stood alone by the tea pavilion, pulling the coat draped over her shoulders with both hands, looking up at the night sky, her dull eyes revealing endless bitterness and sourness, thoughtful.

She was the unconscious woman that Yan Ziwu had brought back before, and she had just been awakened by a nightmare. Seeing the full moon hanging high in the night sky, I couldn't help but feel sad in my heart, so I got up and walked.

No matter how beautiful the moonlight is, people who have something in their hearts have no intention of appreciating it. She has been here for half a month so far, but whenever she is alone or at nightfall, she can't help but think of that night.

What others don't know is that in the woman's heart, there is a secret that only she knows at the moment: she is not from this world, or rather, she comes from a blue planet. As for why she came to this world, what planet this world is, and how far away it is from her homeland, she has no idea at all. This bizarre encounter, she can't explain it, and she doesn't want to have it!

After living for a few days, she realized that she was sure that she had traveled to a new world!

This continent is called Xuanwu Continent, and the continent has not entered the age of science and technology like on the earth, but it is like the ancient times played in the TV series. Although there is no magic common in novels, the martial arts played in the TV series are the only main tone in the mainland!

At least this was the perception in Luoxia Villa before, and after she woke up, she also confirmed that this world is indeed respected by martial arts from the mouth of the doctor and the family who rescued her here.

On this continent, not everyone knows martial arts, and those who know martial arts are called martial arts cultivators.

At present, she already knows that martial arts, in addition to strengthening the body and prolonging life, many things in the daily life of human beings here are closely related to martial arts. In this way, the importance of martial arts in the mainland has become irreplaceable.

The cultivation of martial arts has developed to the peak under the efforts of countless generations of martial arts cultivators, and due to the continuous reproduction, evolution, and sublimation of martial arts, it has even touched the legendary realm of cultivating immortals to this day.

Because of the rapid development of martial arts, there are many amazing and brilliant martial artists in the past generations who continue to explore new methods of martial arts cultivation. The so-called hand has its length and shortness, and the method of martial arts cultivation is naturally strong and weak.

Among martial arts cultivators, distinguishing between strength and weakness is, in fact, in the final analysis, mainly to distinguish the strength and weakness of this martial arts cultivation method.

After inductive statistics, the cultivation method, in addition to the regular practice of perseverance day after day is the most basic method, there is also the method of cultivation that gets twice the result with half the effort, which is for the exercises.

Generally speaking, there is a distinction between cultivating internal force and cultivating external force.

The exercises for cultivating internal strength are exercises that can speed up cultivation and recovery. Only a martial artist who has a technique that can increase the speed of refining and recovering is considered a true martial artist. Because only with such exercises can you cultivate your skills in a short period of time, which is for internal strength, also known as internal force or true qi.

Therefore, one of the most important conditions for distinguishing between strength and weakness among martial cultivators is their own strength. And the standard that can reflect one's own strength is the depth and shallowness of internal strength, that is, the level of skill. According to the level of skill, the realm of martial cultivators is currently divided into nine realms, and each major realm is divided into nine small realms.

In addition to the level of skill, there is another condition for martial artists to distinguish between strength and weakness, that is, the cultivation of external forces. The external force cultivated by a martial artist is usually called a martial art by a martial artist. As the name suggests, this is a special skill that can only be used by martial arts cultivators, that is, means other than internal strength.

The vast majority of martial arts exist independently of the internal force cultivation exercises. In other words, a martial artist can only cultivate internal strength when he has internal strength, but some martial arts cultivators only have internal strength and no martial arts, or only ordinary martial arts.

Martial arts are also divided into levels on the mainland, and in general, they are also divided into civil ranks, official ranks, king ranks, monarch ranks, emperor ranks and honorable ranks.

There are countless martial arts in the Xuanwu Continent, but most of the popular martial arts that are generally circulated are only about the civilian rank, and if you want to obtain more advanced martial arts, you must join a sect, or a martial arts academy on the mainland, or jump off a certain cliff, if you don't die, you may encounter adventures.

The most common martial arts are generally offensive or defensive techniques, and such martial arts are offensive and defensive means. There are also body martial arts that increase speed and agility, but there are relatively few of them. There are also some strange martial arts, such as burning life force or other side doors to forcibly improve skills or martial arts attributes, this kind of martial arts is not practiced by ordinary people, but it does not mean that no one will.

There is also a kind of martial art that basically only exists in legends, flying martial arts. Because this kind of martial art may not appear once in thousands of years, the world thinks that it is just a legend.

Internal strength and martial arts are symbols of the strength of a martial artist. Although luck is also a part of strength, if your comprehensive strength is only at the first realm level, then even if you are lucky enough to get the exercises that are peerless exercises of the honorable level, not to mention that you can't cultivate, even if you can cultivate, it will be difficult to defeat a person whose realm is one realm higher than you, even if it is only a person who cultivates the primary exercises of the people's rank.

This analogy does not mean that the quality of the exercises cannot bring much help to the person who cultivates martial arts, but that powerful exercises require sufficient technical support. If you don't have enough skills, even if you have a high-level peerless exercise, even if you have a basket, it will be in vain, and you will only be buried.

And for martial arts cultivators of the same level, that is, when their skills are comparable, if your cultivation martial arts level is much more advanced than that of the other party, then when you compete, all kinds of advantages can be known at a touch.

The level of quality of the internal gong method can determine the speed of cultivation, and thus the speed of the growth of the power and the speed of recovery after the power is consumed. Similarly, the level of martial arts quality determines the size of the effect of external forces.

Therefore, the ability and achievement of a martial artist not only depends on the individual's innate talent, but also depends on the level of the cultivation method, and of course, it is inseparable from the efforts of the day after tomorrow.

Although most of the exercises are single-attribute, the cultivation of single-attribute exercises has only one effect, that is, it can only improve a certain type of attribute. But everyone is born with different attributes, and there are exceptions to everything, and some people can practice multiple exercises at the same time.

But it's not easy to find exercises that suit you, and it's even more difficult to find a high-quality practice that suits you. Generally speaking, if you can have high-level exercises and martial arts, the benefits in the future are self-evident......

However, it is difficult for ordinary people to obtain high-level cultivation exercises, and the exercises that circulate in the ordinary class are at most only people-level exercises.

In addition, because the innate attributes are different between people, the exercises for cultivation will also have attribute requirements. They are six attributes: wind, thunder, wood, water, fire, and earth.

Each of the six attributes has its own strengths, and they will all have different degrees of mutual restraint.

The exercises of Ren and attribute have quality levels, which are divided into six levels from low to low: civil rank, official rank, king rank, monarch rank, emperor rank and respect rank.

Because the whole body will have true qi traveling around the body when cultivating attribute exercises, under normal circumstances, the six attribute exercises of wind, thunder, wood, water, fire, and earth will have corresponding attribute appearances when they are cultivated or used.

In addition to the appearance of the attributes, the color of the exercises will be different depending on the level. From low to high, it is divided into white, black, cyan, green (blue), gold, and red, which happens to be the same color grade as the clothes in this world.

When mobilizing the True Qi to be used, the color of the level corresponding to the different levels of exercises will surround the appearance of its own attributes, which is very dazzling.

Therefore, people in the world basically look at the color to distinguish the quality level of the exercises.

The exercises of each class are divided into elementary, intermediate and advanced, and there are lighter, normal and darker colors are also different.

Above the civil rank, it is the official rank, but this kind of high-level exercise, in the entire Northern Wilderness, in addition to the Muyang City City Lord's Mansion and several other city city lords' mansions, is also only possessed by those big sects.

Although the official rank exercises are only one order higher than the civil rank, the rarity is more than ten times higher. It takes a relatively powerful family or sect to have this official level cultivation method, but there won't be many.

For example, in Muyang City, where Yan Ziwu is located, the top-level exercises are the internal martial arts cultivation technique "True Fire Decision" and the martial arts technique "Burning Sun" that only the City Lord's Mansion is qualified to cultivate, both of which are fire attribute exercises, but they are only beginner exercises of the official rank.

Cultivating the "True Fire Decision" technique can naturally increase the cultivation speed and increase the skill, but the effect is not as fast as the general official-level exercise, but if you cultivate to the middle and late stages, it will have the effect of increasing the damage of the fire attribute martial arts. In fact, this kind of performance could have been regarded as a top-notch existence in the official-rank exercises, and even some single-attribute official-rank exercises did not have such value. It's just that it's hard for someone to cultivate to the level where it has the effect of increasing damage, so it can only be regarded as a junior official.

As for the royal rank, I should be afraid that it is only available in the center of the Northern Wilderness, the City Lord's Mansion of the Northern Wilderness City. And that monarch rank has not appeared in the entire Northern Wilderness for hundreds of years.

Theoretically speaking, it is basically as difficult for ordinary martial arts cultivators to obtain high-level exercises. However, there are no absolutes, the Xuanwu Continent has a vast territory, a vast land, and even fewer strange mountains and rivers.

In this Northern Wilderness, there are five cities in addition to the Northern Wilderness City, and the population of each city is hundreds of thousands or even nearly one million, but it is only a wild land in the north of the mainland. The reason why it is called the Northern Wilderness is because a hundred miles north of this wild land, there is a Northern Barbarian clan that is infinitely powerful and can control beasts. The reason why the Northern Wilderness is famine is mainly because the Northern Barbarians kill and kill people, and they drink blood, even if they eat human flesh raw, it is commonplace.

Therefore, everyone who lives here is in danger, and all those who can escape and hide are far away from this place. Gradually, the place where it intersected with the barbarians also became a wild land, so it was named the Northern Wilderness.

And in the south of the continent, among the endless mountains, it is said that there are not only various high-level Warcraft families with extremely high IQs, but also dark races that are famous for their weirdness and ruthlessness, but they do not belong to this country......

Due to the vastness of the territory, there are also many unknown and unknown hermits, after their lives come to an end, they may hide the exercises they have learned in their lives somewhere, waiting for someone destined to take them.

Just like in the TV series, there is also a saying in the market: If one day, you fall off the cliff and fall into the cave, don't panic, take two steps forward, perhaps, you will become a martial arts master!

This statement is actually not false, I heard that in the thousands of years of history of this continent, it is not without this kind of story of relying on adventures to counterattack and become a strong man.

It's just these, how much does it have to do with her, a lonely woman under the moon? She had always thought about the most important people in her life, and the thought of their current whereabouts and uncertain fate made her feel like she was dead.

But the person who rescued her told him that as long as she was alive and well, he would tell her some clues about the fire in Luoxia Villa. And for the sake of the people in her heart, she chose to eat and sleep well in this high-walled compound, just so that one day she could find some useful clues!

"Alas......" the woman sighed slightly.

"Why is Miss Ann sighing?"

The sudden sound behind her interrupted the woman's train of thought, but after reacting and knowing that it was Yan Ziwu, the somewhat flustered woman hurriedly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and got up to salute.

In fact, she doesn't want to be so polite, she has lived on Blue Star for more than 20 years, except for seeing those women on TV who need to salute like this, she has never seen it in real life, at most it is a handshake or a hug. But I didn't expect this world to be the same as in the TV series, where men hugged their fists when they met, and women bowed.

"Miss Ann has something on her mind?" Yan Ziwu was dressed in a gray robe, and in the faint moonlight, he could be seen to be very modest, with sincere concern on his face, and he looked kind, like a woman's closest elder.

"Ruoxi is fine, Mr. Lao Yan is worried!" In the original world, although girls were only nine years of compulsory education, they did well in school. In addition, she often followed dramas later, and she also knew a little bit about the ancient rules and habits of words and deeds, and it was easy to come at this time, so she originally wanted to call the other party 'Dr. Yan', and at this time, she was also called Mr. Yan according to the local customs.
