151: Chapter 151: Striking the Stone with the Palm (Third Update Today) 151: Chapter 151: Striking the Stone with the Palm (Third Update Today) And this very afternoon, Xiao Xiao really did what she said she wouldn’t.
She truly ignored Lin Yi, not even a single word.
As for the reason, she earlier covered her mouth.
She had no choice; if she didn’t cover her mouth, that bad guy Lin Yi would pick at her teeth.
Later, she was so tired that she fell straight to sleep.
At this hour, inside the room not far away, hearing the commotion over here, the old eunuch helplessly shook his head.
After a helpless sigh, he began muttering to himself:
“This rascal, in broad daylight you linger over these trivial things, not doing a shred of serious work.
I’ve given you such a great opportunity, I hope you won’t waste it for nothing.
In half a year, I shall see whether you can truly get started.
If after half a year, you truly understand the Vajra Palm, then why wouldn’t I take you as my closed-door disciple?”
But what he couldn’t possibly imagine was, not to mention half a year from now, even at this very moment Lin Yi had already mastered at least twenty percent of the Vajra Palm.
If the old man knew, he would probably be shocked enough to drop his jaw.
Now, having been busy for a while, Lin Yi saw that Xiao Xiao had fallen into a deep sleep beside him, so he carefully turned over and jumped out of the bed.
Then he gently kissed Xiao Xiao’s forehead.
Only then did he pick up the clothes beside him and carefully walked out of the room.
Once out of the room, Lin Yi looked around and locked onto the space behind the rockery in the small courtyard.
Not to mention that it was very secluded, the location was also not too cramped.
Having found a good place, he looked around again to make sure there were no other people, then he strode over there and couldn’t wait to pull out a scroll from his embrace.
The scroll in his hand was none other than the Vajra Palm Technique he had just read a part of.
To be honest, he was really curious about what exactly it was, and also very curious about his own special abilities.
However, as someone from the 21st century who had read numerous web novels, he wasn’t too hard-pressed to accept such things.
After all, he had already experienced time travel, so having some kind of golden finger wasn’t too surprising, right?
When he reopened the scroll, as he read, sure enough, the little figure on it started moving again.
Since there was no one else around, Lin Yi focused all his attention on the scroll.
With his focus, he found himself becoming completely immersed in it.
It was as if the little figure came to life before his eyes, showing off an incredibly fierce set of Palm Techniques.
So the time passed, minute by minute, and Lin Yi did not even realize that, in a flash, the sky had already dimmed.
While Lin Yi was fully immersed in the scroll, in the old man’s room, the old man gently pushed open a sliver of his door and looked this way.
However, when he sensed that strong ripple, the old man’s face immediately became incredibly shocked.
At the same time, he couldn’t help but murmur to himself:
“How is this possible?
Who can look at a Secret Manual and emit such a powerful aura?
Seeing the aura this kid is emitting, could it be that he has already gotten started?
But how can this be possible?
This is a third-rate Palm Technique.”
Even a freak old man, when learning this Palm Technique back in the day, it took three months just to get started.
But this kid, in total, spent barely three hours.
And for one of those hours, this kid wasn’t even focusing on it.”
In a moment, the old man started mumbling to himself as if he were possessed, his eyes gleaming brighter and brighter.
He could never have imagined that this time, he had truly stumbled upon a treasure.
At the same time, he made up his mind that he would, no matter what, accept this demonically talented kid as his own closed-door disciple.
By the time Lin Yi snapped out of his state of deep concentration, night had fallen, and the sound of the night watchman calling out could be heard.
Regaining his senses, Lin Yi felt the previously burning sensation in his palms had disappeared, replaced by a mild warmth, which surprised him greatly.
“What does this mean?
Could it be that I’m doing worse now?”
While speaking, Lin Yi looked around and quickly set his sights on a large rock next to the artificial hill.
He also walked over, raised his hand, and slapped it down on the rock.
However, the next moment, something shocking happened.
As Lin Yi’s slap landed on the rock, he immediately widened his eyes.
Then a gasp of pain escaped from Lin Yi’s mouth:
That hurts like hell!”
He couldn’t help but shake his hand in the air a few times.
Feeling the numbness and searing pain in his palm, Lin Yi couldn’t express how frustrated he felt.
Bloody Vajra Palm, with that one slap, the rock was fine, but my own hand is practically ruined.
Just then, a burst of mocking laughter suddenly came from not too far away.
“Hehe, hehehe, what are you doing, kid?
Making a fuss over a rock for no reason?”
This voice caused Lin Yi to freeze for a moment, and then his gaze turned in that direction, only to see the old man fishing by the pond.
This made Lin Yi’s face turn slightly red in an instant, embarrassed at having been caught making a fool of himself by the old geezer.
“Shame on you for mentioning it, isn’t this all because of that Vajra Palm Manual you gave me?
I’ve been looking through it all afternoon, and I thought by now, I should’ve learned something.
But I never expected that with one slap, the rock would remain intact, and I almost broke my hand.”
Hearing this, the old man immediately snorted disdainfully:
“Pssh, learning Martial Arts isn’t something achieved overnight.
Plus, to split a rock with one palm, that’s a level only a first-rate master can reach.
You, without any Martial Arts foundation, are simply daydreaming.
I gave you that manual for you to casually read and maybe train your bones and muscles.
As for becoming a top-level expert, heh, don’t take it the wrong way, but I’ve got no high hopes for you.”
