Cultivating Differently.

"Third Young Master!" Da Yang came back with two books in his hand, which was given to him by their master to be delivered to Zhang Wu Ji's hand as soon as possible.

Since the time is getting close to dinner, Da Yang came along with a tray of about four different dishes.

Being treated like a God of Wealth, Zhang Wu Ji's dinner was prepared especially for him. As for the latter Zhang Wu Ji, he complains in his heart, because his taste and preference on the dishes are out of the league.

Forcing himself to clear the plate of rice and four dishes, Zhang Wu Ji warned Da Yang to not bring him any of these dishes next time.

"To the hell with your taste bud, former Zhang Wu Ji!" he scolded the former in his heart.

Sour Plum braise fish with gingko, Steamed Vegetable with raw oysters, Braised Pork with pickled vegetables, and steamed chicken with Dark Soya sauce!

"You're the most eccentric idiot I saw in my life!" he complained again and again, while the whole kitchen is in a ruckus at this moment.

The sudden changes in the young master's taste bud is a good news for them!

"We finally don't need to prepare those ridiculous dishes anymore!!!" the head chef cries in happiness when he found out that the young master no longer fancies those dishes.

One has to say, the former Zhang Wu Ji is seriously creating too much trouble for a man with a weak ability like him.

The only fact remains is amongst the three children of Zhang Qing Feng, Zhang Wu Ji was his most doted child of the family, being the last offspring he and his dead wife produced.

"Although he was a trash that can't cultivate, so what? He is still the youngest and most doted child between me and my wife." this word has been blinding him whenever he had to come out and solve the problem caused by the youth.

"Did the heaven finally take pity of me and decided to turn my mindless child to a proper youth now?" Zhang Qing Feng pays his tribute to the dead wife's grave and smile whenever he thinks about the changes he had seen from the youth.

Meanwhile, inside the Pill Making Room.

"Zzz..." Zhang Wu Ji was sleeping peacefully with two manual in his hand.

Between the two, one of the books seems made from a higher quality material, where the brilliant it gives out to outshine the other one.

About three hours later, he woke up with a smile.

"This is amazing. I did not think that with the upgrade ability, it can actually create such an amazing skill to come from the book." Zhang Wu Ji praised his ability while caressing the book like it was a treasure he created.

"Should I try to upgrade this book as well?" he considered for a moment before he started. After a few time of succession, he finally upgraded it into +5, making him having two +5 Cultivation Manual in hand now.

Inner Reversal Manual +5

Usage: strengthen user with 1 strand of Inner Qi for every 60 hours of practice

Durability: 3/3

Special: Double the practice speed when sleeping.

This was the first manual in his hand, which is why he was holding the manual to sleep after overexerting himself previously.

As for the second manual, it was quite a surprise as well.

Golden Body Manual +5

Usage 1: allow the user to use Golden Fist (1), Golden Armor (2), Golden Protection (2)

Usage 2: strengthen user with 1 strand of Inner Qi for every 72 hours of practice

Durability: 2/2

Special: absorb opponents Inner Qi by 1 when touched by other cultivators.

Only the user can use the absorbed Inner Qi. Current storage slot is 3 Strands of Inner Qi

"Hahaha! I got a magical trick now! If I call the servant to come to me every day once, I can easily increase my amount of Inner Qi that can be used." Zhang Wu Ji can't believe that this way, he can begin to cultivate.

Although for normal people, they would require to follow the steps written in the manual to begin their practice, for Zhang Wu Ji, it was much more simple.

To use one of the three Golden Body Manual Skills, all he needs is just to activates and provides enough strands of Qi to activates.

As for the meditation skills, it is even easier.

All he needs is to practice his meditation, and every 60 hour and 72 hours, he will obtain 1 Strand of Inner Qi.

This is almost like a cheat for a person with broken Martial Body like him.

"Tock Tock Tock." three knocks came from the door.

When Zhang Wu Ji went over to get the door, he noticed the hurrying Zhang Da Zui standing outside impatiently.

"What's wrong?" this is the first time he sees Zhang Da Zui react in such a way.

"Young master, the Soothing Flower seed already producing their bulbs, although it was only five bulbs, if we left it matures and wither, we can roughly double their numbers in our next replants." Zhang Da Zui explained what had just happened on the plot of soil.

It seems, after the watering can have been used, the growing speed of the plants, especially for the Soothing Flower is getting slightly faster than normal.

Although a normal Soothing Flower usually takes 10 days, about 240 hours to grow from a seed into a blooming flower, if they have been watered through the watering can often, the collection can be done after nine days.

"Great job, continue to manage the plot, let me know when the Violet Meridian Grass sprouts and begin to grow. As for the Soothing Flower, you can replant them after the seed is taken to dry." Zhang Wu Ji gives a different set of orders before he prepares to return to the room.

"Ah, wait. Come here and touch the book." he extends his hand out with the Golden Body Manual +5 to Zhang Da Zui.

Obeying his master's order, Zhang Da Zui touches the manual, but feel nothing wrong from it.

Without waiting for the young master to think of something, he quickly walks away.

"I can't wait to see the changes that might happen on the plants. But for now, properly increase their quality is the best way to go." Zhang Wu Ji returned to the room and absorbs the strand of Inner Qi taken from Zhang Da Zui.

In this way, he can increase the rate of his production slightly faster.

For the next few days, he did not waste his time to rest unless it was required. Taking advantages of being a member of Zhang's household, Zhang WU Ji ordered all the servants to follow his direction.

Each time he rings the bell in his hand, three servants with some cultivation strength shall stand before his room.

Every single day, one person can only come to attend to his needs once, and not more.

Through this way, the remaining 250 units of ingredients were quickly upgraded to their +1 stage.

In his next seven day schedule, other than providing a two consistent Wound Mending Pills for their daily sales, Zhang Wu Ji spent all his time in upgrading, sleeping, and practice.

The seven total days provides him with a total of 4 additional strands of Inner Qi, making his body a 9 strands Inner Qi practitioner.

For somebody that cannot cultivate like him, this was a cheat.

An amazing one on top of that.

With 9 strands of Inner Qi each time he wakes up from his short rest, he finished concocting all the ingredients very quickly but purposely leaving a few for later because it was essential to act like one.

It won't be a good idea if his secret was exposed by others because of this.

With some additional Strand of Inner Qi in his body, Zhang Wu Ji tried to upgrade the item over +5, but unfortunately, his attempts failed to give him any positive response.

After trying for a few times on several different items, he deduces that unless he entered the ranks Inner Qi Fighter, it will be very difficult for him to try upgrading over +5.

Which is why, for now, he's completely engrossed in upgrading everything belonged to him into +5 status, but it seems except a few certain items worth the upgrading, the others aren't so much.

Those bedding, teapot, chairs, and others all failed to get a special status at their +5, but after the upgrade, their durability and comfort are extremely high.

Once, his father went into the room and took a seat on the chair, and yet hesitates to leave the chair because it was too comfortable.

At the end of the day, his father took the chair away with him, leaving his room with one chair less.

"This brat has quite a taste. I remembered the time he bought that set of furniture for the sake of the color, I scolded him for two nights before agreeing to his demand, but to know that the chair is so comfortable," he said in his mind as he rubbed his face on the wooden chair.

"Did our master turn crazy after our young master became normal?" the servants are speechless when they see the high and mighty master rub his face against the chair.

"What are you guys looking! Go back to work!" when he noticed how embarrassing his behavior is, Zhang Qing Feng scowled at his servants and get all of them away from where he was standing.

After he went back to his room, he lands his bottom on the chair at the first chances he got and hesitates to leave the seat thereafter.

"What trick can I get to quickly increase my cultivation strength?" Zhang Wu Ji was impatient to quickly increase his strength, but at this moment, he has no other choice but to depend greatly on the two and a half day and three-day basis for an increase of two Strands of Inner Qi.

For somebody impatient like him, this improvement took too long for him to see notable results.

After going through a few books related to the cultivation and cultivators, he still failed to find a solution to quickly enhance the numbers of his inner qi strands.

Soon, the batches of Wound Mending Pills entered the market in bulk.

In his previous 80 attempts, about 30 of them did successfully activate the special ability, allowing him to yield 4 pills instead of two each time.

But unfortunately, he wasted four sets of the ingredient to try concocting them in the strength of a +2 Ingredients, +3 Ingredients, +4, and +5.

The end of his experiments is a complete disaster.

All four sets of ingredients end up as a lump of medical waste.

But after he groups them together to try upgrading them, it unbelievably works.

Medicinal Waste +5

Usage 1: fertilized medicinal plants for them to become more resistant to the pest.

Usage 2: Increase the amount of inherited gene for matured medicinal plants.

Durability: 1/1

Special: Increase the growing speed of a plot of plants by 5 hours when used. (One time limit in a plot of soil)

Without any consideration, he went straight to where he planted the seeds and scatters the fertilizer evenly on their soil before he waters them again.

Perhaps it was due to the newfound strength of 9 Strands of Inner Qi, he did not feel tired after doing some basic works.

Meanwhile, not too far from the Zhang Household, is where the Zhang's Apothecary is located.

Currently, the stall is under heavy assault from the group of an underground society.

"Destroy their store, and take away all the precious medicine they got in there! Count it as the repayment for angering this 2nd boss a few months back!" a one eye male between his twenties came to cause havoc for the family.

From the word he speaks, it seems this must be related to some disaster the Third Young Master caused.

"Stop right there!" the other servants from Zhang's came to aid their people, and very quickly, both sides engaged in a big fight.

With the mood to only come out for a walk, Zhang Wu Ji was greeted with such a sight.

"Oh... Bloody and smells. Can't they fight somewhere else? Eh? Why our apothecary is being beaten into such a state?" Zhang Wu Ji finally noticed the terrible condition of their shop, and by sneaking from one person to another, he finally reaches the side of the shop, and check the people still inside.

"Third Young Master, why are you here! They're here to cause trouble with you!" a servant was shocked with their young master arrival.

Without caring for their own lives, two servants quickly took him away from the store, which they were soon caught the attention of the one-eyed male.

"Stop there! I found you, damn Zhang Wu Ji!" he charged at the trio in haste, swinging the sword in his hand as he went past their defense.

Within five seconds, he reaches the trio and intends to give it a swing.

"Not good! Luckily I have some Inner Qi stored for such a dangerous situation!" Zhang Wu Ji looked at the sword coming close to him.

"Golden Protection!" with the Golden Body Manual still by his side, he activates the ability of Golden Protection by sacrificing two strands of Inner Qi.

In an instant, a golden shield appeared between the blade and block the sword attack, where it shocks everybody spectating the fight.

"I remember that the Third Young Master is a trash and cannot cultivates! How did he deflect the sword attack!" one of the spectators was stunned the moment the sword was blocked by an invisible golden shield.

"I'll let you taste two Golden Fists at the same time!" upon the activation of the Golden Protection, he was completely absorbed into fighting against another opponent, which he activates the Golden Fist twice.

A golden gauntlet appeared on his right hand, he slammed his first at the head of the one-eyed male, before he strikes another hit on his chest.

The two strikes take him down in that short instant and took his life.

"What? Did he die with just two hits? I thought it was nothing too much for him." Zhang Wu Ji stands up from riding on top of the dead body.

In his deep thought, it was a surprise to be able to kill a stronger practitioner with two strikes, but he forgot about the difficulties to master the Golden Fist!

If the master of Zhang's Household knew that Zhang Wu Ji actually mastered the Golden Fist with only reading and practicing it for seven days, how will he process this?

"I think I just caused a trouble.

Even I'm not a troublemaker like you where, former Zhang Wu Ji." he scratched his head while looking at the spectators that were staring at him with their wide opened eyes.

Without being bothered by their stares, Zhang Wu Ji left the location after he rummages the dead body of the one eye male.

It seems except the sword, a pouch with some gold coins, pills, and a random manual, there wasn't anything valuable for him to turn into his belongings.

Therefore, he left the body there as the servants will later dispose of them.

Previously, during the ten days of concoction and practices, Zhang Wu Ji completed the concoction of 95 batches of Wound Mending Pills.

Each batch yield him 2 pills, making it 190 pills in total before added with the 60 additional Pills came from the special activation.

The sales from them were estimated to be 6,250 gold coins.

But the cash was given to him by his father because he sure it will be sold out before long.

A few hundred pills hardly last a whole week, where their sales of the normal pill are between 500 to 1,000 pills a day.

It might don't seem like this, but in fact, the Li Jiang Town alone possess over 1,200 Fighter Rank cultivators, 25 Soldier Rank cultivators, and 4 Warrior Rank Cultivators.

The four Warrior Rank Cultivators are respectively the master of the household.

Zhang's, Tie's, Li's, and Chen's.

As for the 25 Soldier Rank Cultivators, each family possesses five of such masters, with an exception of 10 in Zhang's family.

This is the reason why Zhang's Household can be said to be the overlord of this town, allowing the former Zhang Wu Ji to do his biddings without worrying about consequences!

Without an aim along his path, Zhang Wu Ji came out only to take a breath of fresh air.

Although he was slightly worried about his safety because of the former Zhang Wu Ji deeds that have been done, but luckily, he too has a protective measure to protect himself now.

Window visiting each shop he walks past, he was completely absorbed into the culture practiced in this world.

Their way of dyeing clothes, tailoring, and style of their shops are very much similar to where he came from.

In fact, except the additional of Cultivating Technique, Inner Qi, and the lack of machine, this world is almost comparable to where he came from.

Sadly, enemies do always meet each other at a corner.

"Zhang! Wu! Ji!" the young lady from the Botanist Hall bumped into the daydreaming Zhang Wu Ji, and he practically shamed her on the streets because the bump caused her to drop her bag of seeds!

"Again, you're here to make my life difficult! I will kill you this time!" the young lady fiery temper blow off the moment she saw Zhang Wu Ji, and without holding back, she launches her fist that was filled with the strength of a 60 Strands of Inner Qi towards him!

"Protect the young master!" a shadow came out from the tree in that instant, but before they reach their young master, it was a shock to see that their young master actually beat the lady, causing her to tumble on the ground before she knocks another person.

"What is this all about?" the Soldier Rank servant can't believe his eyes.

while at the same time, the young lady can't believe that a weakling like Zhang Wu Ji, which has been sent smashing at the wooden counter, can retaliate and put her in the same condition!

"Come on! I got my Golden Body Manual with me. Unless you're a cultivator, it won't be a problem for me to completely trash you!" memorizing the move he learned from the movies he watched before, he presents the stance of Taichi in front of all people! [1]

In the novel works by our great grandmaster Jin Yong, the Zhang Wu Ji is actually a character in his work [Dragon Sword and Heavenly Sabre]. It was a very interesting drama once in Hong Kong
