Don't Mess with That Dragon

Chapter 002 Library


After entering the Library as a servant, besides sweeping and cleaning, Li Hu read extensively about the history and origins of Martial Arts in this world, along with various books on the Eight Extraordinary Meridians and Basic Martial Arts, leaving almost no book unread.

Regarding the Extraordinary Power of this world, Li Hu had already gained some understanding.

According to legend, in ancient times, humans mimicked tigers and leopards, learned from nature, and cultivated the first trace of True Qi, thus beginning the path of Martial Arts.

Later, through changes in dynasties and the development of ages, it gradually formed today's Martial World where the righteous sects of the Central Plains are thriving, while the Demon Sect lurks in the damp, poisonous insect-infested lands of the south.

For many years, the Demon Sect had constant friction with the righteous path of the Central Plains, ambitiously trying to invade the Central Plains.

Simply put, there was confrontation between the righteous and the demonic in the Martial World, with a tense situation.

However, matters of the Demon Sect had nothing to do with Li Hu, who was sweeping in the Library.

Proficient in the essence of survival, Li Hu, after roughly understanding the Martial Arts of this world, began practicing Martial Arts.

In the Library, hundreds, even thousands of Basic Martial Arts Secret Manuals were collected. Although there were no advanced secret manuals, Li Hu was apparently more interested in these basic martial arts.

The Nourishing Essence Technique, an ordinary technique for refining Inner Power True Qi, a common commodity in the Martial World.

The Body Strengthening Skill, adapted from Five Animals Qigong, a basic external technique with the effect of strengthening the body.

These two were the martial arts Li Hu prepared to cultivate.

They were also the martial arts Li Hu carefully selected after reading hundreds or thousands of basic martial arts in the Library.

"To rely on this world's original Martial Arts System, there's simply no way to go back! I have to carve my path."

When Li Hu began communicating with the Gate of Truth in his spiritual mind, he had no choice but to decide to carve his own path based on this world's Martial Arts System.

Li Hu, or rather Austin,

after more than half a month of sorting things out, had roughly clarified his situation.

The Gate of Truth, after crashing into his mind that day, caused some unknown transformation, directly bringing his soul to this world, thus falling into a state of weakness.

With the Gate of Truth in this state, Austin could weakly sense the connection between the Main World, but relying on its residual power to return was out of the question.

It's as if there's an unbreakable barrier, preventing the Gate of Truth from bringing his soul back.

That barrier should be the constraint of heaven and earth space.

Therefore, to return, he must shatter the vacuum constraint between heaven and earth.

Moreover, perhaps due to the Laws of Heaven and Earth, Austin did not feel the presence of any Magic Power Energy between heaven and earth.

In other words, this world did not have the foundation of Magic Energy's Extraordinary Power.

To break through the spatial constraints, the only way is to rely on this world's native Martial Arts System to achieve the level of Void Shattering.

At that time, after breaking through the void, perhaps he could rely on the power of the Gate of Truth to return to his main world's body.

"An unexpected disaster."

Regarding the unexpected situation with the Gate of Truth, Austin was also helpless.

Fortunately, in his previous life, he was also an Oriental, had some understanding of Wuxia culture, and did not feel much discomfort.

Although, after living in the Western Fantasy World for so many years, he now occasionally felt a little strange.

"Even the highest Divine Skill Secret Manual of Celestial Essence Sect, the Celestial Heart Treasure Manual, only historically leads to the Grandmaster Realm at most, and doesn't reach the final destination. This world's Martial Arts is too narrow, unable to reach the other shore. One must absorb the essence of Martial Arts from the entire world, and demonstrate it personally, only then might there be a chance to reach the world's limit."

In this world, Martial Arts starts with Postnatal Qi Cultivation, then Innate, Grandmaster, and finally the cultivation above all, the Grandmaster above all others.

Generations of martial artists developed and advanced, yet throughout history, there has never been one who broke through beyond the void shattering level.

Since this world has no path, Austin could only carve his own path.

With his eyesight and realm, having been exposed to Law Origin, he had already surpassed the several levels of the strongest martial artists in this world.

Despite the different systems, in terms of profound Dao Origin, Austin's vision was still far ahead of this era.

As the saying goes, a blank paper is easy to draw on,

by relying on the common martial arts of Nourishing Essence Technique and Body Strengthening Skill, and entering the Extraordinary Domain, absorbing the concepts and essence of other martial arts, he might carve an even bigger and farther path.

In truth, the simpler and more ordinary the martial arts, the more capable it is of encompassing all.

....

Thus, during the day, Li Hu swept and organized the Library, and at night, he took advantage of a little spare time to roam in the ocean of various books, while also starting to cultivate two martial arts.

Perhaps due to the experience of crossing over, Li Hu's Spiritual Power was at least eight or nine times stronger than ordinary people, and he could even use it to have the effect of introspection.

The strong Spiritual Ability allowed Li Hu to precisely control every meridian and muscle, conducting even more precise cultivation.

It was precisely due to this that Li Hu's cultivation speed of the two martial arts was almost a thousand miles a day.

And after cultivation, Li Hu's physical quality became stronger, and his speed in the daily cleaning and management work of the Library was greatly enhanced, allowing him to devote more time to reading and cultivation.

Time,

passed day by day in the routine of daytime sweeping, and nighttime reading and practice.

Unknowingly, a year had passed since Austin crossed over to become Li Hu.

In this year, it was said that among the batch of servants who started with Li Hu, someone named Zhang Feng, recognized for his extraordinary talent by an Elder, was accepted as a disciple, thus rising to become a disciple of the Celestial Essence Sect.

This event caused quite a stir within the entire Celestial Essence Sect, and among thousands of servants, it sparked a lot of enthusiasm.

In the following half year, countless servants worked hard to showcase their greatest enthusiasm, hoping to become the next fortunate one.

However, all the hustle and bustle outside had little to do with Li Hu.

In this year, he mostly lived a life that revolved around the canteen, the Library, and the dormitory.

He did not make friends, nor would anyone try to befriend someone relegated as a drudge in a Library.

The allocated Senior Brother Zhao in the Library had no incidents either, and his presence was rarely felt.

Among the Library servants, the talkative Skinny Monkey also got transferred away due to a connection with a Senior Brother, so only Li Hu and the slightly deranged Dunce were left among the library's servants.

Isolated from the outside world, as if being isolated outside the Celestial Essence Sect.

Yet, Li Hu didn't mind, for the Library was a rare quiet place amidst the tumultuous outside world.

In the spring warmth and autumn chill, summer heat and winter cold.

In such a quiet year, Li Hu's cultivation realm quietly broke through to the Innate.
