Time flew by and Ling Tian had already been in this world for a year. Tomorrow was the seventh day of the seventh month, which was also Ling Tian's birthday in this world. The Ling family had already made preparations for a big banquet. Because tomorrow, the Ling family's young master would be 'grabbing' the week. This was a big day for the Ling family. It was said that almost all of the upper echelons of the Sky-Bearing Empire would come to watch the ceremony and eat and drink while they were at it.
A year's time was enough for Ling Tian to understand a lot of things. Just from the discussions of his family members, with Ling Tian's wisdom, he had more or less understood this world. But as his understanding deepened, Ling Tian became more and more confused.
This world, or rather this planet, was very different from the Earth in Ling Tian's memory of his previous life, but there were too many similarities. On the surface of this planet, there were three continents: the Heavenly Star Continent, the Heavenly Sun Continent, and the Heavenly Wind Continent. The continent where the Ling family lived was the Heavenly Star Continent. Between the three continents, there was an endless sea.
But the humans on the three continents were not as complicated as those on Earth. The inhabitants of the three continents were all of the same skin color. If they were called on Earth, they would be called the Yellow People, the descendants of the Yellow People, China. It was as if this planet was completely ruled by the Yellow People. As for the demons, beastmen, and magic that Ling Tian had imagined, there was no such thing as the demons, beastmen, or magic in this world.
On the Heavenly Star Continent, the Sky-Bearing Empire was not the only country. There were at least seven or eight countries of various sizes. Between the countries, they could not escape the fate of mutual deception and war. But the powers between the countries were more or less the same, evenly distributed. Therefore, each country was eyeing the other covetously, waiting for an opportunity to make a move.
What puzzled and surprised Ling Tian the most was that the culture of this planet was basically the same as that of Earth. Here, they also followed Laozi, Confucius, Mencius, Han Feizi … Everything they spoke was in Chinese, which seemed to be the universal language of the planet …
There were also martial skills on this planet, but compared to the situation on Earth where there were many sects, the situation of martial skills on this planet could be described as terrible. Almost all the martial artists practiced external cultivation methods, and the sects and individuals who could practice internal cultivation methods were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.
The war here was still a war of cold weapons. Ling Tian secretly compared this planet with Earth. The current state of this planet was about the same as the Sui and Tang Dynasties on Earth. It was still a time when technology and culture were very poor.
Ling Tian lamented in his heart. With the knowledge he had grasped, he could probably become an existence like a super prophet on this planet. My god, how can I keep a low profile? Almost every sentence that came out of his mouth would become a version of the golden rule. Besides, this world had no computers, no Internet, no television, no media organizations, and the most abominable thing was that there were no low-level media like newspapers! Not to mention my favorite Xuanhuan Wuxia novels and so on ….
Damn! After Ling Tian understood all this, his first reaction was this word that appeared in his heart! How can I live like this! Ling Tian was extremely sad and indignant.
After visiting his grandfather's study room once, Ling Tian completely gave up on the idea. In the huge study, almost all of them were history books that could be used to hypnotize people … The only exception was "The Biography of the Heavenly Star Emperor". It was basically piled up with words of praise, which could make people vomit for three days at a time … But the old man never got tired of it, holding the book in one hand and stroking his beard with the other, reading with great interest and relish! From time to time, he would even use his hoarse voice to recite with a high and low cadence …
Old man Ling's favorite thing to do was to hold his grandson in one hand and read the biography in the other, glorifying his grandson's cultural influence. Ever since the first time he was educated, Ling Tian completely disliked this grandfather of his. That feeling was even worse than Ling Tian's previous life when his martial arts were crippled and he was beaten viciously in the garbage dump … If he had a choice, Ling Tian would rather sit on a tiger stool and be forced to drink chili water than be ravaged by Old Man Ling's cultural influence!
Cake seller! Only the word 'super terrifying' could barely describe that feeling. Even with Buddha's incomparable willpower, he definitely wouldn't be able to withstand it! Thus, Ling Tian had no choice but to search for a psychological hypnosis technique in his mind and practice it painstakingly. He did not ask for it to be of any use in the future. He only hoped that it would be able to hypnotize him when Old Man Ling started his cultural influence …
Thus, from then on, every time Old Man Ling carried Ling Tian in his arms and recited to him, it was the time when Old Man Ling hypnotized himself — the effect was excellent!
Ling Tian was silent. He was completely disappointed in this world and had lost all confidence …
If not for the fact that he was unwilling to give up, and that this opportunity to be reborn with his memories was too rare, Ling Tian would have already gone on a hunger strike and committed suicide …
In this one year, Ling Tian's only gain was that his Divine Shocking Dragon Art had already crossed the threshold of the first layer with the help of XianTian Qi.
Don't underestimate the first layer. One must know that Ling Tian's first layer of Divine Shocking Dragon Art was completely based on XianTian Qi! This was an unheard of legend in martial arts! This meant that Ling Tian would not have the difficulties of breaking through the acupoints and opening the meridians of ordinary martial arts practitioners. He only needed to practice step by step, and the Qi he obtained would automatically form XianTian Qi in his body.
If the meridians of ordinary martial arts practitioners were like a small river full of obstacles, then Ling Tian's meridians were like a turbulent and unobstructed river! There was no comparison between the two! The difference between Ling Tian and ordinary martial arts practitioners was like the difference between a beggar born in the slums and a prince born in the royal family.
After entering XianTian, the greatest benefit of martial arts was that there would no longer be any mishaps like qi deviation. Thus, Ling Tian was able to enter the realm of martial arts that he had dreamed of in his previous life without any distractions. He was so engrossed in it that he did not have to worry about being disturbed. Because he still had to play the role of a baby that could not talk or walk, his training time was basically 24 hours a day.
This was something that could not be helped. If Ling Tian was born and ran around everywhere, spewing out profanities, then ….. no one would think of him as a genius, they would only think of him as a monster!
When he was tired from training, Ling Tian first reviewed all the martial arts that he could remember from his previous life, making sure that they were firmly engraved in his heart. On this planet where martial arts were scarce, Ling Tian was deeply aware of the wealth that existed in his mind! If he casually took out any one of the martial arts that he remembered, it would be possible to cause an earthquake on this planet! These were super treasures that he could use to protect himself in the future, he could not afford to be careless.
After carefully sorting out the martial arts manuals in his heart, Ling Tian began the next step of his work. That was to quietly sort out all the martial arts routines, moves, light body techniques, fists, swords, palms and other random things that he remembered.
In his previous life, after Ling Tian's martial arts were crippled and he was rescued by Ling Meng 'er, he had always been alone in the East Sea. His only pastime was playing online games and reading novels. Due to his martial arts background, he was naturally more interested in fighting games. In the process of sorting out these moves, Ling Tian found the feeling of playing online games that he had not felt for a long time!
Of course, the biggest difference from his previous life's online games was that one could freely slaughter on the internet, while the other could simulate a real battle in his mind. Both belonged to the same category of illusion, but the current Ling Tian, every move that he simulated could be practiced with his own hands and feet in the future. Therefore, Ling Tian's simulated moves were all very close to actual combat, a standard one hit one kill.
One had to admit, the amount of work that Ling Tian had to do to sort out all these information was enormous. The vast amount of knowledge in his memory was innumerable. To want to completely sort it out within a year was simply an impossible task. Therefore, Ling Tian also had to make a choice with emphasis. The first choice was, of course, when he did not feel safe, everything related to self-protection was the current priority, the most important, and the most urgent.
Ling Tian lay on the cradle, his eyes slightly closed. On the outside, he seemed to be extremely obedient and content. In reality, his mind was operating at high speed, not stopping for a moment.
