'I can't keep training only my capacity, let's start Snow Treading and Lower Dark Fist.' After a nap his qi had refilled, spending a few minutes to refresh his understanding of both techniques, Jim entered the Illusion Barrier.

The crumbling ruins and oppressing atmosphere had become familiar to him by now, the large space and plentiful enemies provided the perfect place to train these techniques. 'Okay, Snow Treading First.' Unlike the inner and outer techniques before, Snow Treading required both Qi Manipulation and Body Movement, luckily his Parallel Processing let him perform both simultaneously.

'Ugh, this is harder than I thought.' The circulation route was rather simple, a spiral going up and down each leg, the hard part was the strange body movements, it required him to twist his torso and bed his knees at awkward angles, he felt a sudden lightness in his movements after an hour of practice.

'No award for practicing a movement technique? Tch.' His practice continued for several hours, each circulation of Snow Treading Steps seemed to consume approximately 200 qi, but with tens of thousands available, it was no problem.

'Whoa, such a huge jump in qi capacity? Is it the Qi Battery skill?'

Jim felt this was good enough for his movement technique for now, time to practice Lower Dark Fist. The circulation was strange, slowly retracting qi from his fist and coiling it up into his arm before quickly forcing it back into the fist, he felt a pressure building up each time he completed the circulation.

'Whoa!' A dark energy enveloped his hands, it was like a black mist had glued itself onto him. 'Time to test it out.'

Proceeding ahead, he spotted a zombie, it was turned away from him so he approached silently, with a spear in his right hand to finish the battle, he punched out with his left at its back. *Shlick* His hand passed directly through the zombie's torso with no resistance, creating a wide cavity.

"Huh..." The zombie instantly collapsed, Jim was startled by how easy it turned out to be. 'Isn't this far better than using the spear!?'
