The Lightning Driver
Chapters. 23. The Forest of a Thousand Illusions I
“Junior Gou, be careful! I heard this Thousand Illusions Forest is like a double-edged sword.” He Fei continued his wobble.
“Wait first! How does that double-edged sword mean?” gou Long asked, wanting to understand.
“The Forest of a Thousand Illusions, is the harshest punishment for breaking the rules of a high-level sect.”
“In the past, disciples who could not be regulated by the sect, were exiled to that forest, after the period of seclusion ended, most of them went crazy, some even degenerated their silat.”
“It was from one side, then on the other, out of the forest it became a very strong person with a lot of fighting experience.”
“It's as if you've been living life for thousands of years,” it is, He Fei explained at length.
Ye Xuan and Gou Long listened since earlier. “If you can make such a profit, is not a blessing?” The two simultaneously nodded, revealing a look full of astonishment.
“The problem, which can come out and get blessings has not existed for hundreds of years, according to the story I heard, the last person managed to get out by getting the blessing that is the Third Generation Patriarch of the Heavenly Dragon Sect.”
He Fei resumed his story, which was listened to by Ye Xuan and Gou Long with open mouths and amazed, until He Fei finally asked, “So, so, will Junior Gou still comply with the sentence of two months' exile on the Thousand Illusions Hill?”
“Or junior can ask Elder Zhou for help for leniency, we still have two days of pause before Junior Gou will actually go through it.” He Fei advised, as well as giving good enough advice to be a consideration for Gou Long.
Smiling and patting both hands Gou Long replied, “It is junior sense .. there is no need to involve Elder Zhou, after the junior heard the story from Senior He earlier, adventure in the Forest of a Thousand Illusions seems very interesting, besides juniors are sure to be able to survive,” a speech full of confidence.
“Your juniors, always surrounded by good luck! Ha ha ha.” said Gou Long, and ended with a loud laugh.
Hanging out with Ye Xuan all day long, a bit of Ye Xuan's frenzied nature and often prides itself on being contagious to Gou Long.
He Fei and Ye Xuan looked at their junior spirit, joined in smiling knots, He Fei again said, “ Trouble in the library, causing you to get a ban on not visiting the library, until the appointed time. Your student identification, also seized.”
He Fei looked at Ye Xuan for a moment, “If it is for you, there is no need to worry. I congratulate you on being a sect lackey!” his ridicule was delighted, turning his gaze to Gou Long. “But, for Junior Gou, did you get to pick up some Book of Sword Science or Spanking Science during the library?”
Gou Long then replied, “Junior has not had time to choose Science Punch, also any Sword Science from the library, but the Seniors do not need to worry.” Taking out the Book of Wind and Lightning Sword Science, showing the Book to his two seniors. “Junior has this Book to practice,” Gou Long said.
He also told me, This book was won from the auction in Xia Yu City on the advice of Elder Zhou.
Looking at the Book, He Fei and Ye Xuan both read and flipped through the pages of the Book.
Satisfied to see, Ye Xuan then said, “This is the Sword Science Skill Junior Gou played while training with me this morning, but Junior Gou's movements were very stiff. I read a few sheets earlier, I must admit this Book is useless to us, but different from you–”
“It's good now to try Junior Gou to practice this Book first, practice his sword moves! I will guide!” take Ye Xuan along, throwing a wooden twig in lieu of a sword towards Gou Long.
Gou Long greeted the tree branch, starting to play every skill of the Wind and Lightning Sword Science. Gou Long tried to focus, and played all the movements that had been projected in the mind.
As his movements stiffened and faltered, Ye Xuan swiftly gave directions from the side. Each of these directions was extremely beneficial to Gou Long. For over an hour Gou Long practiced Sword Science. He had only managed to master the first skill of the Wind and Lightning Sword Science.
Rest for a moment, it was He Fei who took over, before starting to practice he explained, “Junior Gou! If practicing the sword must use a means in the form of a sword. Now that we think of the hand as a sword, use every hand movement like moving a sword.”
“Hand is a living sword, which we directly wrap with our inner energy, like this.” He Fei wrapped his hand with the Iron Sand Hand Science then moved like a sword move.
“Good! Now try Senior He notice, is it really like this?” try practicing, Gou Long deflated his inner strength into both arms.
Gou Long's arm was like wearing a set of armor of the lightning element, a bright silvery light enveloping his arm. The light was also slightly tapered at the end of the arm, like a sword of light.
“Well! It's like that, so good Junior Gou! You are so talented and smart!” praise He Fei.
“Now, move on with that incredible Science of Lightening Your Body, like you played this morning, try every puncture and slash turn into a punch or toot with your fingertips!” He Fei taught with all his heart.
He was indeed a wise person, as well as a broad understanding of Silat Science, once trained with Gou Long this morning. He Fei could instantly advise Gou Long to set foot with the Science of Lightening the Body, and hands with the Science of Punch.
Thanks to the guidance of his two seniors for two more hours, Gou Long's understanding of silat became better, his movements became more flexible and also not rigid, that's how it is. “There are no weak warriors under a great commander.”
With good senior guidance, complicated things are easy to overcome.
Gou Long continued to practice every new understanding he gained vigorously, he did not want to forget the sensation of this understanding. The preoccupation of practicing, Gou Long was unconscious, the two seniors were still paying attention to the practice.
“Junior Gou! Enough is enough, rest! It is not good to constantly train, will damage the muscles and flesh.” Finally Ye Xuan told Gou Long to stop.
Gou Long obeyed the command of his senior, whereas with the vitality level of the body, even if he practiced twenty-four hours without any rest, it was not a problem.
They returned to their respective huts, that night Gou Long spent memorizing the theory of the Wind and Lightning Sword Science, Because the third skill was very draining, deep, Gou Long did not try the third move.
After feeling enough, and already memorized the entire contents of the Wind and Lightning Sword Science. Gou Long sat cross-legged and cultivated, recovering all of the profound energy drained from the body.
