Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents-Chapter 88 - 86: Cultivating Inch Step and Activating Meridians

Chapter 88: Chapter 86: Cultivating Inch Step and Activating Meridians

Lu Lin was thrown into the air, but he didn’t feel too excited or thrilled inside.

In the ups and downs, Lu Lin’s heart was very calm.

Shao Xiaolong left.

But the questions he left behind remain.

What method can allow an ordinary person who has failed to awaken for many years to suddenly gain the power of awakening?

People who haven’t awakened can’t enter the Consciousness Universe.

So, with the help of equipment at the Awakening Base, they enter the Consciousness Universe to find that light.

Then guide it over, link it with the Star Core, and form Star Veins.

This is the method most Star Core Warriors use to awaken.

Of course, there are exceptions like Xiao Ru, who naturally awaken, but these cases are not discussed here.

But just now, Shao Xiaolong also mentioned that it was after going to the alien star when he encountered some chance to enter the awakening state.

Although in Lu Lin’s perception, Shao Xiaolong’s awakening was incomplete.

His power increased significantly, but he had no Star Skills, nor Star Veins.

He could only use the Star Core to absorb the free-floating Star Power Factors around him.

This method is much more efficient than ordinary people, but it doesn’t count as a true awakening.

When Lu Lin went to Linbei City yesterday, he encountered that Miss Lin Ling, who also couldn’t awaken but managed to awaken successfully with an initial refinement of 0.33%.

These two events seem to have no inevitable connection.

But Lu Lin had a vague feeling, as if a big hand was secretly pushing this matter.

Allowing more ordinary people to awaken, strengthening the federation’s power.

Behind this, there must be temporarily undisclosed purposes, of which Lu Lin is unaware. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Connecting to before, with what Class Advisor Li at Blue Star Gold Sword High School said.

The situation of the Human Federation on the Exotic Battlefield is grim.

Lu Lin has some of his own speculations.

However, this matter is too big; Lu Lin is now just a recently awakened small figure, and in any case, this matter is not his concern.

After being tossed by everyone for a while, Lu Lin finally managed to set foot on the ground.

At this moment, Guan Pingchao also walked out from the Monitoring Room.

His face was complex.

Undeniably, Shao Xiaolong’s words just now had a huge impact on him.

But seeing Shao Xiaolong, who claimed to have awakened successfully, unable to withstand even one punch from Lu Lin, Guan Pingchao felt somewhat perplexed.

Why has he practiced boxing day after day for decades?

In the eyes of Star Core Warriors, his level only counts as having a slightly better physique, and his combat power is entirely negligible.

"Dad, what are you thinking about?"

Guan Yue came to Guan Pingchao’s side, asking with a curious expression.

Dad wouldn’t plan to renege on his words, would he?

"Nothing, just some sudden reflections."

"Daughter, go and tell Lu Lin to wait. I’ll go get him the Inch Step secret book."

After speaking, Guan Pingchao turned and went to the office, opened the safe, and carefully took out a yellowed secret book.

The paper was light and thin, seemingly tearable with a little force.

The cover of the secret book had two not very beautiful characters written on it, "Inch Step."

Judging from the handwriting, the person who wrote the secret book down didn’t seem to care much about it, possibly even someone’s handwritten copy from childhood.

This was a secret book Guan Kuang found during an exploration of a Secret Realm at the Exotic Battlefield.

The text in the secret book isn’t completely the same as the Chinese or English currently used by the federation.

But the text on the secret book has long been analyzed and deciphered by federation linguists, and if Lu Lin needs to, he can consult the references to learn the Inch Step.

Handing the secret book to Lu Lin, Guan Pingchao seemed a bit disheartened and waved as he left.

"Lu Lin, this secret book was obtained by my grandfather from the Exotic Battlefield. You must cultivate it well."

Guan Yue said with a smile.

"President Guan, what’s this about?"

Lu Lin, holding the secret book, felt at a loss.

Guan Yue had to explain Guan Pingchao’s thoughts to him.

"Alright."

"President Guan, I indeed need a star power martial arts technique footwork, so I won’t stand on ceremony with you and Uncle Guan."

"However, my purpose for challenging Shang Wenming and Shao Xiaolong on stage wasn’t for this."

"In such a case, consider that I owe President Guan a favor. If you ever need anything, President Guan, feel free to contact me."

Guan Yue smiled and didn’t say much on this topic.

After a tumultuous afternoon, Lu Lin hadn’t had a good chance to cultivate Ten Steps Kill. He wanted to spar with the martial artists in the Martial Arts Hall but got interrupted by Shao Xiaolong.

Now if Lu Lin wanted to spar with others, probably no one would be willing to fight him.

The one who punched Shang Wenming and Shao Xiaolong away, is it because their skin is itching?

With nothing else to do, Lu Lin informed Guan Yue and then left the Martial Arts Hall to return home.

After returning home, Lu Lin opened Inch Step and began to study it.

The text issue was not a problem for him.

In high school, there were specialized courses teaching the potential writings that might appear in various relics and secret realms of the Exotic Battlefield.

Lu Lin was eager to learn, and though he might have some difficulty speaking with the indigenous of the Exotic Battlefield.

He was confident in just reading and understanding the text.

"Inch Step."

It implies moving deftly between square inches of space.

Cultivating this footwork requires activating the meridians in parts of the human body such as the feet, legs, hips, and waist, driving them with star power to enhance leg strength and flexibility.

By combining it with a specific set of steps, martial artists can easily evade attacks when faced with them and find opportunities to attack their opponents.

Upon seeing it, Lu Lin immediately felt a sense of familiarity.

Doesn’t this resemble Ten Steps Kill a lot?

It’s just that Ten Steps Kill consists of only six types of star power moves without any related techniques to go along.

Evidently, the master who created Ten Steps Kill back then had insights after reviewing the secret books in the Exotic Battlefield.

Lu Lin remembered the master who created Ten Steps Kill was named Chen Buming. He once was curious and searched online for a long time yet found no trace of information about him.

Grasping the Inch Step secret book, Lu Lin carefully researched the method of star power operation within.

Unlike Ten Steps Kill, Inch Step involved as many as thirty-six bodily meridians, making the learning process more challenging.

Moreover, as he was cultivating on himself, Lu Lin was afraid he might paralyze himself if not careful.

Analysing each meridian one by one in this way.

By the time his parents called him for dinner, Lu Lin had already clearly deduced and understood all the routes in his mind.

After quickly finishing his meal, Lu Lin mentioned going to cultivate and rushed back to his room.

He was about to start attempting to activate the thirty-six meridians involved in Inch Step.

The human body’s meridians have always been hidden. If needed, they must be activated with star power.

Many research scholars of human meridians in the federation boldly speculate.

They propose that the complete meridian theory remains recognizable because ancient humans might also have been able to cultivate.

However, for unknown reasons, the star power on Blue Star disappeared, causing meridians to remain hidden and unnoticeable.

Lu Lin drew a trace of weak star power from the star veins to begin activating the meridians.

This is a laborious task, as well as a meticulous one.

Lu Lin spent one night’s time, barely activating sixteen meridians, not even half.

Opening his eyes and seeing the already brightening sky outside, Lu Lin stood up and moved his body around.

It seems that cultivating Inch Step is not something that can be achieved in one go.

Today, there is also an assignment with Guan Yue to guide star skills for someone out of town.
