Chapter 10 – 10 Discovering Cultivation Technique
Chapter 10: Chapter 10 Discovering Cultivation Technique
He suddenly realized that he had been reborn into a world possibly possessing extraordinary powers.
Lu Qing’s heart was both joyful and shocked.
The joy stemmed from, as a Chinese person, an inexplicable longing for a life of chivalry and roaming the world with a sword.
The shock was that, in a world where one could amass great power in oneself and give rise to powerful individuals, danger was much more prevalent than in ordinary worlds.
So-called heroes often break the law with their martial skills, once an individual grasped significant power, they could easily become dismissive of various rules.
It wasn’t uncommon for the strong to anger and the weak to suffer resentment.
At present, he was a weakling incapable of trussing a chicken.
If, one day, he carelessly encountered an evil person knowledgeable in cultivation, it’s feared he could be easily annihilated.
Thinking of this, Lu Qing couldn’t help but feel a sense of danger.
He needed to change some of his original ideas.
Lu Qing again fell into deep thought, slowly mulling over his plans in his mind.
The next morning, Lu Qing cooked a pot of river shrimp porridge and then woke Little Yan, the siblings enjoying the porridge together.

“Brother, the shrimp porridge tastes so good.”
The little one slurped noisily, looked up with her face still dabbed with a grain of porridge, and happily said to Lu Qing,
“It’s good you like it, drink slowly, and don’t choke.”
Lu Qing reached out to remove the bit of porridge from her mouth.
“Brother, are we going fishing today?” Little Yan asked.
“We’re not going fishing today, after we finish eating, we’re going to Grandpa Chen’s place.”
Now that their immediate food needs were met, Lu Qing wasn’t planning to fish in the next few days.
Also, the fish on yesterday’s fishing spot had been significantly reduced by his efforts and would probably need some time to recover.
As for the remaining two fishing spots, the rudimentary fishing rod might be challenging to manage.
Before he could make a better fishing rod, Lu Qing didn’t intend to fish at those two spots.
There was no way around it, they were too poor. Every bit of resource was precious and couldn’t afford his wastefulness.
“Going to Grandpa Chen’s place?” Little Yan’s eyes lit up.
The little one had been asleep all of yesterday and didn’t know about the visit from Elder Doctor Chen and Elder Zhang.
“Mhm, do you want to go?” Lu Qing asked.
Generally, kids are naturally scared of figures like doctors, and Lu Qing wasn’t sure if Little Yan felt the same.
“I want to~” the little one said earnestly, “Grandpa Chen is so nice. He cured brother’s illness, and Little Yan hasn’t thanked him yet.”
Lu Qing smiled, “Right, let’s go thank Grandpa Chen together.”
After finishing the porridge, Lu Qing locked the door and set out with Little Yan.
Elder Doctor Chen didn’t reside in the village but lived halfway up a small mountain behind the village.
Walking on the road with Little Yan, he saw from afar a solitary small courtyard faintly visible halfway up the mountain, looking quite picturesque.
Upon reaching halfway up the mountain, Lu Qing saw a figure moving in front of the yard; he was about to speak when he suddenly closed his mouth.
He also pulled on Little Yan, gesturing her to keep silent.
Because he noticed that Elder Doctor Chen, now, didn’t seem to be in a state to be disturbed.
Elder Doctor Chen was practicing his boxing.
Lu Qing didn’t recognize the type; to him, it somewhat resembled the Tai Chi Boxing practiced by the elderly in parks in his previous life.
The moves were slow and gentle.
However, after watching for a while, Lu Qing noted the differences.
Though Elder Doctor Chen’s moves seemed soft, each move seemed to carry a breeze and flowed naturally, quite a beautiful sight.
Just as Lu Qing was getting somewhat captivated, suddenly, a row of text popped up in his field of vision.
“””Discover Cultivation Technique, do you wish to simulate?”””
Hmm?
Lu Qing’s pupils suddenly constricted.
His superpower had such a function?!
He glanced at Old Doctor Chen, who was still deeply immersed in his boxing, and Lu Qing forcefully calmed his wildly beating heart as he silently chose yes in his mind.
“Simulation initiated, current progress, 1%, 2%, 3%…”
Watching the progress bar silently increasing in his field of view, Lu Qing’s heartbeat involuntarily quickened again.
He hadn’t expected that his superpower could simulate other people’s cultivation techniques.
Just yesterday, he had been frustrated about not being able to access the cultivation methods of this world.
This was truly a case of finding a pillow when feeling sleepy.
Lu Qing intently watched Old Doctor Chen’s movements while simultaneously keeping an eye on the simulation progress of the cultivation technique.
“48%, 49%, 50%”
When the cultivation technique simulation progress reached fifty percent, Lu Qing found it had stopped and the progress bar disappeared.
Looking across, he saw that Old Doctor Chen had already finished his boxing.
Lu Qing inwardly lamented.
If he had come a bit earlier, he might have been able to fully simulate Old Doctor Chen’s boxing method.
Now, being stuck halfway was quite uncomfortable.
However, Lu Qing just briefly regretted it before he adjusted his mindset.
Being able to discover another function of his superpower during this visit was already a great gain.
As for Old Doctor Chen’s cultivation technique, there would be plenty of time in the future; there was no need to rush.
Old Doctor Chen finished his boxing session and had just turned to look at Lu Qing and his sister.
In fact, he had known of the siblings’ presence from the start.
It was just that practicing in the morning was already a habit, so he hadn’t stopped.
“Have you two eaten breakfast yet?” Old Doctor Chen asked warmly.
“We have,” Lu Qing respectfully replied.
Little Yan stepped forward and grabbed Old Doctor Chen’s hand, “Grandpa Chen, thank you for curing my brother’s illness.”
“Hehe, little one, the one you should thank is yourself. If you hadn’t cried so hard that day, I wouldn’t have come inside to see what was going on.”
Old Doctor Chen stroked Little Yan’s head, somewhat moved.
That day, he was wandering around the village and happened to hear Little Yan’s cries. Unable to bear it, he went inside to check and discovered how seriously ill Lu Qing was.
“Why thank Little Yan? It was Grandpa Chen who cured my brother’s illness,” the little one said, slightly puzzled.
“It’s not entirely my credit, your brother getting better is also because he has a good fate,” Old Doctor Chen sighed.
Yesterday after returning home, he had checked the medical books again and still hadn’t found any records of Lu Qing’s illness.
Ultimately, it all came down to Lu Qing’s good luck and having a good fate.
Little Yan didn’t understand Old Doctor Chen’s words and could only nod her head vaguely.
Only then did Lu Qing realize that there was this additional reason for Old Doctor Chen treating him.
He affectionately looked at Little Yan and bowed deeply to Old Doctor Chen again, “Thank you, Grandpa Chen, for saving my life.”
“You… Ah, never mind, never mind.”
Old Doctor Chen ultimately waved his hand, deciding not to explain further.
Because he knew that even if he explained further, Lu Qing and his sister would still believe it was he who cured the illness.
Since that was so, why bother with more explanations?
“Grandpa Chen, what were you doing just now, practicing boxing?” At this moment, Little Yan asked innocently.
Lu Qing also looked towards Old Doctor Chen.
