Learned basic martial arts skill: Thousand Spinning Turns lv1
The skill book "Thousand Twists and Turns" (1/3) has ended its resonance period. Once learned, this skill cannot be used again.
"Phew~"
Yue Feng let out a long sigh of sand and muttered to himself, "Luckily, I can keep practicing without sleep or rest, otherwise I probably wouldn't have been able to learn it even with these three chances."
This is also an advantage of being an earth element.
Humans need to constantly try carefully, rest, and recover their strength. Overworking and recklessly will only deplete the body and cause hidden injuries that are difficult to detect.
As for myself, if my arm doesn't work, I can just tear it off and let a new one grow. There's no concept of hidden injuries.
Since setting his goal, Yue Feng no longer found the earth elemental plane boring.
So what if I spend all day facing cold rock walls? As long as my strength steadily improves, it's all worth it!
It's not that he's particularly fanatical or obsessed with becoming stronger.
Firstly, improving one's strength is ultimately a good thing, and secondly, this earth elemental plane is simply too desolate and boring.
Since I'm just idling around anyway, I might as well bury myself in studying to pass the time.
Moreover, Yue Feng didn't feel it was too hard, since he couldn't feel any fatigue.
"Continue! Begin learning magic, show me the way!"
He has already come up with an excellent learning method.
Simply set the stones on the ground as beacons and throw them into the bodies of other earth elemental beings.
Then I'll chase you, and if I catch you, I'll make you... give the stone back to me.
It's like playing hide-and-seek, except I'm cheating.
Thinking about this...
Yue Feng immediately used the skill book "Guide to Me" (1/3).
"I hope I can learn apprentice-level magic in one go."
Soon, he felt the magic power within the elemental essence being guided out, and the magical energy flowed into his right arm along the rocks and sand.
The magic flowed and took shape naturally, eventually converging into the gray stone in the palm of the hand.
In an instant, the gray stone transformed into a directional beacon.
"Give me directions!"
As soon as Yue Feng finished speaking, a pale green ball of light slowly floated out from above his head.
After hovering in the air for a few breaths, it transformed into a pale green line about 10 centimeters long, locking onto the gray stone like a compass.
He grabbed the gray stone and, taking advantage of a fellow creature about to leave the cave, swiftly and decisively embedded it into its body.
"I'll come find you again later."
After speaking, Yue Feng turned his gaze to the last bottle of pink potion and silently thought: Check the panel.
The analysis was very fast this time; the gray light in the retina went out in less than a minute.
【Rose Dew】A colorless and odorless specially made coma potion. After taking it, the person will immediately fall into a deep sleep, accompanied by temporary memory loss.
—Brother, I'll drink it, you can do whatever you want.
"Luca, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, you're involved in this kind of thing too?"

Yue Feng stared blankly at his character panel, lost in thought.
It's been more than two months since we fell back to the Earth Elemental Plane.
He never stopped working from beginning to end, but his level remained stuck at LV1 and he couldn't break through.
Even the guiding magic, which he hadn't deliberately practiced, had quietly reached level 2.
"Perhaps, basic martial arts skills are inherently more difficult to master than apprentice-level magic."
Yue Feng pondered to himself, and a new guess arose in his mind about the individual levels of living beings.
He vaguely deduced a set of rules: Protection Level + Class Level + Race Level = Individual Overall Level.
Both Sovia and Goblinchip possess professional ranks, although there is a significant difference in their strength.
But there is no doubt that career level will affect future development.
For example, Sovia's profession is a war mage. Although her individual combat strength is extremely weak, she can play an unimaginable role in group battles.
However, Yue Feng knew absolutely nothing about professional ranks.
How should skills be combined? What benefits can each class provide?
"And what was that goblin talking about promotion before it died?"
Forget it, I'll just keep practicing diligently!
"Turning and spinning a thousand times!"
Boom!
Yue Feng shattered both fists once again, and discovered this while repairing his damaged body.
Several earth elementals around him began to imitate his movements, reaching out their little hands and rotating their arms.
However, they are all in the shape of lumps, and the arms they are shaped are of different lengths.
Most of them will be flung away by inertia, while some will hit themselves due to the shape they are being shaped.
Only occasionally can one or two earth elementals mimic the punches, but their movements are far too flawed.
What they're doing doesn't even qualify as practicing martial arts; at best, they're just randomly throwing punches in a different way.
"That's not how you practice spinning and twisting."
Yue Feng turned around to face the other earth elementals in the cave and patiently said:
"Everyone, follow my movements. Even if you can't sculpt your body, make sure you have a firm grip on the ground, and make sure the joints between your arms are strong."
"Hey, don't hit your head."
Yue Feng stopped an earth elemental that was violently swinging its head.
He stared at the scattered limbs and broken bodies on the ground, and fell silent for a moment.
If this continues, it won't be long before this place is covered with the remains of limbs and broken bodies sculpted by earth elementals.
In order to have a place to stay in the future, he had no choice but to say:
"Let me teach you how to throw; it's simpler."
"As for these severed limbs, they can be used as targets to practice throwing accuracy."
Glung glung~
The earth elements whispered among themselves, and the elemental spirits all turned their gazes toward Yue Feng.
The core of apprentice-level martial arts is to hone a simple, basic movement to perfection through countless repetitions.
Earth elements are inherently powerful, and the rocks they throw are condensed and differentiated from their own bodies, making them uniquely endowed.
This is why they learn these kinds of martial arts much faster than ordinary races.
By checking the character panel's abilities, Yue Feng found several level 5 earth elementals.
Their skill bar includes a skill called "Rock Shot".
"I wonder if throwing and rock shooting can be used together."
Just as Yue Feng was envisioning the future, a white light suddenly appeared beneath his feet without warning.
"Damn it! Not again!"
Before the pentagram pattern could unfold, he took off running outside before the magic runes could solidify.
"Damn it! Couldn't you have waited until I maxed out my martial arts and magic before summoning me?!"
After the white light, Yue Feng disappeared from the spot once again.
