Chapter 3: Crossing
Daqingshan.
A slender figure was moving quickly through the jungle.
He came to a cold pond, stopped suddenly, and began to practice a set of boxing techniques.
"Black Tiger opens the mountain!"
"A tiger leaps over a ravine!"
"White Tiger Dance!"
The young man had solid muscles and his every move was menacing, and the sound of a tiger's roar could be faintly heard as he practiced his moves.
At the end, the young man slowly closed his fist, looked at his reflection in the pond, and muttered to himself:
"I never thought that I could actually live a third life!"
Fang Xian sighed: "In this life, I don't want to be content with being in the lower class anymore. I want to see a wider world and truly control my own destiny!"
It is difficult to change a person's personality once it is formed , but it would be abnormal if no changes occurred after experiencing the dramatic changes of life and death.
"I just didn't expect that I came to a world similar to the ancient times, and it is very martial!"
Yuanwu Kingdom, Yaofeng County, Daqing Mountain!
This is where Fang Xian found himself after being reborn many years ago.
Moreover, this world has "martial arts" that rely on strength to dominate. Even in the most ordinary villages, there are a few free-hand fighting moves that are passed down.
"Practicing martial arts requires you to train your muscles, bones and skin on the outside and your breath on the inside!"
"Only by cultivating true qi can one be a truly powerful person, and only then can one be treated with courtesy wherever he goes... Unfortunately, internal martial arts are hard to come by, and I have only learned the ordinary external martial arts "Tiger Fist"..."
Fang Xian's eyes moved slightly, and a fluorescent light appeared in front of him:
[Talent: Mysterious Eye]
【Tiger Fist: Level 6】
"The Tiger Fist is only an external martial art. Although it is said that if you practice it to the peak, you may be able to cultivate true Qi from the outside to the inside, but there are very few people who succeed... And this attribute panel seems to only have a display function..."
Fang Xian looked a little depressed.
He had been exploring this 'golden finger' for sixteen years, but in the end, he only figured out this function.
"What's even worse is that before I had the [Dongxuan Eye], I couldn't even see this..."
Fang Xian guessed that his real "golden finger" was the reincarnation ability and the attribute panel!
The so-called [Eye of Dongxuan] is the change brought about by the previous contact with the "Dongxuan Secret Record Manuscript"!
It is precisely because of these eyes that he can see the extraordinary, the mysterious, and his own attribute column. Otherwise, he doesn't know how long he would be confused.
Only extraordinary eyes can see the mystery!
"It's a pity that the Dongxuan Secret Records cannot be used for cultivation. However, it's better to stay away from such strange things..."
Thinking back to everything that happened back then, Fang Xian's expression changed.
When he recited the sacrificial words and cursed his enemies, he felt that his soul seemed to be connected with a certain existence in the dark.
That kind of madness and chaos still makes cold sweats break out on my back even when I think back on it now.
"Most of the contents in that secret record are about how people get involved with that existence, and thus gradually become 'inhuman'. In the end, they might even sacrifice everything they have... In this respect, I am lucky. I only sacrificed my flesh and blood and vitality. Considering the possibility of time travel, I did not sacrifice my soul. Otherwise, it is hard to say whether I can live a third life again..."
Fang Xian's face was filled with fear.
After traveling through time and space and being reborn, it seemed that the "connection" with that existence was severed. When he recalled the manuscript, there were only garbled contents, and only the [Eye of Dongxuan] was left. It seemed to have solidified into a soul gift. It was a blessing in disguise, and it was barely preserved.
"I don't know if there is still a chance to go back..."
In the previous world, the upper limits of military power and civilization were much higher than this martial arts world.
Not to mention that the civilization can traverse the stars, from the words uttered by that young man, there are also strange ways of cultivation, and even strong people who can survive in space in their physical bodies!
And this world?
Fang Xian had not heard of any rumors about great masters with supernatural powers such as moving mountains and filling the sea. It seemed that anyone who could fight one hundred enemies alone was considered a very remarkable warrior.
The upper limit is obviously much lower.
"As long as you are alive, you have a chance!"
"Besides, if you don't climb to a certain height, how can you know the truth of the world? Just like in my previous life, how can an ant see the scenery that an eagle sees?"
" In this life, I must live a wonderful life!"
Fang Xian raised his head and looked at the sky: "It's time to leave the mountain."
…
There is a small mountain village at the foot of Daqing Mountain.
Outside the village is a barren mountain field where farmers are working and a few children are playing by the field.
As the sun was about to set, Fang Xian, carrying a wild boar, walked into the village entrance amid the envious gazes of the farmers.
"Uncle Erhu, Sister Caigen, Uncle Pan Ming..."
"Little Tiger is so good. I'll bring you a bunch of wild fruits someday..."
Fang Xian kept smiling, greeted everyone, and walked into a courtyard.
There is a fence around the door of the house, and three houses with red bricks and green tiles, which seem to be newly built. There is a small vegetable garden inside the fence. At this time, a man who looks like an old farmer is sitting on the green rock at the door and smoking a pipe.
"My second brother came back after killing a wild boar."
A little girl in a red dress and two braids ran out to greet them with excitement on her face.
"Well, I also picked your favorite berries for you."
Fang Xian smiled, took out a bunch of bright red fruits from his arms, stuffed one into the little sister's mouth, making the little girl squint her eyes comfortably.
"It's good to be back."
Old Man Wang took another puff of his pipe, knocked it on the rock, and stood up.
His name is 'Wang Laogen' and he is Fang Xian's father in this life.
In addition to the father "Wang Laogen", this family also includes the mother "Yunhua", the eldest brother "Wang Da", the younger sister "Wang Shanhua", and as for Fang Xian, his name in this life is "Wang Xiaoer", which makes him very dissatisfied.
When a country person names something, you can’t expect it to be of high quality; that’s it.
Fang Xian could only grow up with this somewhat embarrassing name.
Originally, this family's living standard was very hard, relying on the three acres and seven mu of thin land outside.
It turned out that Fang Xian was scheming. After secretly learning martial arts, he went into the mountains to practice every now and then, and went hunting to supplement the family income, thus earning this family fortune.
Today, the Wang family is considered a wealthy family in the village. Even matchmakers from several neighboring villages have come to propose marriage, but Fang Xian totally disdains them.
After all, he had been bombarded with all kinds of information in his previous two lives, so his vision was really high.
night.
There was a pot full of wild boar meat roasted on the table, which made my little sister drool.
Fang Xian looked at the family sitting around him and took a deep breath: "Dad, I want to go out and explore the world!"
Wang Laogen seemed to have expected this: "Ever since you were nine years old, I knew you were wild at heart. Fortunately, you still have your elder brother to take over the family. Go ahead, go ahead."
Wang Da and his wife were busy eating. When they heard this, they trembled and had no expression.
But the old lady was reluctant to leave. She held Fang Xian's hand and kept chattering, and it took Fang Xian a lot of effort to coax her into silence.
