Great Swordsman
Ch.22 - Intermediate Level Shadow Step Technique!

“I need to pay more attention to them in the future.” Xu Feng muttered in his heart, he then looked at the gift they gave and immediately opened it curiously.

“Hmm? They are really generous.”

Huo Teng clicked his tongue and did not hide his sense of irritation when he saw that the wooden box contained five low-tier Spiritual Stones. They really treated Xu Feng so well.

Even for the Huo Clan, Spiritual Stones were not easy to obtain.

“Brother Xu, I won't disturb your time anymore.”

When Huo Teng saw Xu Feng's expression, he immediately understood it, the boy likely wanted to cultivate. After all, just by using it to cultivate, the potential of spiritual stones could be fully utilized.

He chuckled when he thought Xu Feng was a cultivation maniac. It is only fitting that his achievements can be this high.

Huo Teng immediately called a female servant and told her to escort Xu Feng to the guest house, the location was right beside Gao Gao.

“This is your place sir..”.

The maid showed Xu Feng a traditional-style house. Calling it a house seems less appropriate because the building is more like a small villa that has a courtyard.

Xu Feng then nodded in thanks before stepping inside and entering the most spacious room. He immediately closed the doors and windows then absorbed all the spiritual stones. The energy on the panel instantly changes to 10.

“At the time to raise the Shadow Step Technique!”

Xu Feng did not waste any time and improved the first technique he mastered. When Xu Feng chose improvement, in an instant a wave of information hit his head.

How to position the leg muscles to produce a boost burst and other complicated positions were embedded in Xu Feng's mind one by one. When everything was finished, Xu Feng felt a new feeling. He felt he had been doing the exercises for many years and his understanding of the Shadow Steps deepened.

“Finally, mid-level Step Shadow!”

Xu Feng exclaimed happily. He immediately practiced it and his originally standing still figure became blurry like the wind before appearing four meters away.

“Her range and speed have doubled than before! Sure enough, rising to the mid-level brought about an incredible change!”

Xu Feng felt like shouting, the feeling of being strong every day made him extremely addicted.

“Hmm?.. I felt the aura of the First Stage coming from next door, it seemed like Gao Gao had also managed to break through.”

Xu Feng heaved a sigh of relief, his brother finally embarked on a serious path in the cultivation world.

“It's time for him to learn a technique.”

Xu Feng immediately headed to Gao Gao's house and found him sitting cross-legged on the bed. He just stood still watching it from the side and did not bother him as Gao Gao seemed to be trying to stabilize his cultivation base.

“Maybe tomorrow only.” Xu Feng delayed when he saw the day was already almost dark and Gao Gao still had not opened his eyes. He was satisfied with Gao Gao's perseverance, at least the fat kid met his expectations.

…….

“Sial, are you serious? You've reached the mid-level Shadow Steps?” Gao Gao looked at Xu Feng with his mouth wide open as they were having dinner at the inn.

Previously Huo Teng forced the two of them to stay at the Huo Clan Pavilion but Xu Feng refused and said that he had already rented a room at the inn.

He did not want to trouble Huo Teng any further.

He hoped that Gao Gao would be able to enter the ground level as soon as possible, only with a capable strength could he help him in the future.

“Now I wonder, it seems like your talent is not Circle One.” Finished hearing Xu Feng's lecture, Gao Gao then recalled one of the most important things.

“Did the sect have made a mistake in the assessment?”

Gao Gao would not want to ask curiously. Xu Feng's achievements were extremely unreasonable, even the Five Circumference Talent would not be able to achieve his current achievements.

Keep in mind that people can only start cultivating at the age of 15, even with the Five Circumference Talent, reaching the Third Stage and intermediate level on one technique at 18 years old is too exaggerated.

“Many things can encourage the growth of someone Gao Gao, not just talent alone.”

Xu Feng shook his head and mentioned that this was all thanks to his own hard work.

“Mehh.”

Gao Gao rolled his eyes in disbelief. Ever since they escaped from the Lotus Sect, he had never seen Xu Feng meditate, even he had never seen him practice a single technique. What is hard work?

But despite being curious, he did not ask any further. Everyone had their own secrets, Gao Gao certainly would not have forced Xu Feng to talk about them if he himself did not want to say them.

As long as he was still his same brother, Gao Gao did not doubt anything.

“Rest better tonight, from tomorrow you should focus on training Shadow Step Technique.”

Xu Feng reminded before moving towards the room he rented. He felt tired today, not physically but mentally. The existence of the Shadow House was still weighing down on his mind, he needed to plan everything he wanted to do in the future carefully.

“As for tomorrow, visiting Xue Village should be on the agenda.” Inner Xu Feng, he was sure the envoy of the Xue Village should have been on his way.

After all, the distance between Xue Village and Huo Village was only about half a day of riding, the envoy sent by Huo Teng should have already arrived there this afternoon.

“Things may get more complicated in the future but I am confident in my strength.” Xu Feng said so because of his intuition.

The night passed and morning came. The warm sun shining through the bedroom window washed Xu Feng's sleeping face, his silver short hair disheveled slightly shining under the golden radiance.

Xu Feng's eyes slightly opened when one of the inn's female servants came in to bring him some food. The maid's cheeks flushed red looking at Xu Feng who was still lying half-conscious, the charm that the young man before her emitted was too alluring to any woman's heart.

He hurriedly placed the tray on the table and gently woke Xu Feng up.

“Master, your breakfast is ready. You better eat it now while it is still warm.” He reminded gently before leaving the room with a reluctant face when Xu Feng asked for it.

“Haaa, new day.”

Xu Feng got up from the bed and washed his face then enjoyed the food brought by the waiter. The dish is warm soup and meat. Xu Feng's body felt comfortable and refreshed after finishing it.

“No many people yet yahh.”

Xu Feng glanced at the still-empty inn and walked out towards the inn's backyard. There, he saw Gao Gao who was now training the Shadow Step Technique.

“He's starting to be more diligent.” Xu Feng muttered inwardly.
