Chapter 821: Creating a New Battle Skill
Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem
It was too late when Zhang Tie came back home from the Shrine Palace of Huaiyuan Palace in Embracing Tiger Mountain . Zhang Tie had a new plan . However, as he found his parents had gone to bed, he didn't say it to them; instead, he went back to his inner chamber and had a big fun with his wives .
Beverly and Fiona were very diligent . After playing a game with Zhang Tie for almost one night, the three women finally fell asleep with a fatigued and satisfactory look .
Like charging, sleep was the best way for a person to recover his spiritual energy and vitality . Knights' sleep pattern was different than that of commoners .
Commoners' sleep was shallow . A part of the region and cortical tissue of commoners' brain was half excited in sleep, which consumed human's energy and vitality like an idling engine . Therefore, commoners would have a long sleep . Usually, it would take a commoner 7-8 hours to recover the vitality that he had consumed in the past day . There was a Hua phrase called sitting in repose with ones' eyes closed, the principle of which was that one could decrease the degree of excitement of a part of the region and cortical tissue of his brain by closing his eyes so that he could consume less physical and spiritual energy .
Knights' sleep pattern was different than that of commoners . Almost every knight had mastered a deep sleep skill when they promoted to knights . Like rapid charging, in such a deep sleep, it would take a knight only 3-4 hours to recover his spiritual energy better than that of commoners who would sleep 7-8 hours .
When he promoted to a knight, Zhang Tie had mastered a deep sleep skill . After his spiritual energy made a breakthrough once again, Zhang Tie's sleep skill further improved as he would enter a sleep state that he could not tell .
In this special sleep state, besides maintaining some senses and vigilance to the environment, his full brain and cortical tissue would enter an absolute tranquility . In this sweet and ethereal state, he didn't watch any dream or have any distracting thoughts like returning back to the huge placenta, which was comfortable and pleasant . Besides his consciousness becoming still, his guts seemingly started to "hold" things such as his qi, blood, vitality and spiritual energy, which formed and vanished in the dark quietly and established subtle relations with the energy between the sky and the land . They just quietly nourished, strengthened and purified his body; made him more vigorous and granted him with the greatest energy in the tranquility .
In such a quality sleep, Zhang Tie only needed to sleep 2 hours a day, which was many times more effective than sleeping 9 hours per day when he was in Blackhot City . Whenever he slept, he would feel like taking a special tonic . Whenever he woke up, his body and each surging point in his body would display a wholly new and great vitality, which always brought him a big surprise .
Sometimes, Zhang Tie even doubted that he only needed to take a nap one day in such a deep sleep mode so that he would root deeply in the ground and grow stronger like the big trees in the woods without having to do any cultivation or practice .
Now, Zhang Tie only needed to sleep 3 hours a day when he would feel being "full" . After sleeping 3 hours, Zhang Tie would feel his vitality, qi and blood spilling out of his guts and being full of strength . He then could not fall asleep or become still any longer except for entering meditation . He could only radiate his brilliance . Zhang Tie didn't know whether other knights had the same feeling when they got up, he didn't know how to describe it . However, each time Zhang Tie got up, he would feel his body blooming like flowers and full of pleasure while another wholly new and nice day was coming .
. . .
It was September 19, when he woke up, Zhang Tie laid on the bed for a short while . After tasting the nice feeling of his blooming body, Zhang Tie opened his eyes .
It was 5 am . His bedroom was pitch-dark . It was still dark outside .
Linda was resting on his right arm; Fiona was lying on his chest; Beverly was leaning against his left arm . There was a pleasant complex smell in the room, which carried the fragrances of the three women's bodies and the faint, elegant fragrance of some purple rosemary in the vase . What was more, the smell of protein which had been sprayed by Zhang Tie also evaporated in the air .
The three women were in a sound sleep . Zhang Tie carefully drew his arms away from the heads of Linda and Beverly . After that, he moved Fiona's head onto the pillow lightly . He then kissed the three women's foreheads and covered the quilt for them before getting off the bed . After that, he left the bedroom and came to the outside bathroom . After taking a bath, he put on his clothes and left the room .
The female servants in the mansion would get up at 6 am . Therefore, it was pretty tranquil in the inner chamber . Besides those guards who were sticking to their posts, nobody else had gotten up in the mansion .
Zhang Tie came to the grassland in the backyard which had been covered with red maple . After warming up his body, he started to practice fist position slowly .
Zhang Tie moved slowly and naturally like moving clouds and flowing water . Although it didn't look powerful, it made onlookers comfortable . In the eyes of outsiders, Zhang Tie's fist position was nothing different than those performed by old men and women in the urban squares and parks in the morning .
After promoting to a knight, the so-called practice such as forming chakra or improving battle skills was always like deep water flow, which could not be sensed by outsiders .
As a knight, he was always different than commoners . Only after practicing fist position for over 10 minutes, his invisible qi had gradually spilled out his body while all the red maple's leaves and twigs and grasses within 20 m swayed themselves along with Zhang Tie's movements with an extremely strong sense of rhythm . When Zhang Tie's hands were facing upward, those twigs, leaves and grasses would face upward; when Zhang Tie's hands were facing downward, those twigs, leaves and grasses would face downward; when Zhang Tie faced east, they would face east; when Zhang Tie faced west, they would face west . It seemed that there was an invisible line between Zhang Tie's hands and those twigs, leaves and grasses, causing them to move with Zhang Tie .
The morning dew jumped off the twigs, leaves and grasses; broke apart and evaporated, causing the area within 20 m to become misty and weird . With Zhang Tie's movements, the mist formed and disappeared from time and then in a very unpredictable way . Like a drawing board, it showed dragons and snakes in the mist time and then . If some rustic villagers witnessed this scene, they might fabricate some stories about mountain spirits and wild monsters .
Zhang Tie's elder brother Zhang Yang had stood over 20 m away from Zhang Tie and watched Zhang Tie practicing fist position for quite a while .
