Chapter 2 Starfire Sword Technique
The next moment, the sword in his hand vanished instantly, and a Starfire Sword appeared in his equipment inventory.
At the same time, Wang Yuan felt a scorching aura surging out of his body and spreading throughout his limbs and bones.
After a few breaths, the intense heat merged into his body.
Wang Yuan clearly sensed that his strength had increased, his thoughts had become clearer, and despite being in the cold wind, he did not feel cold but rather a little warm.
He took off his thick fur coat, and the biting cold wind blew against his body, but he only felt a slight chill.
Hunger was ever-present, and after chopping firewood all morning, Wang Yuan was even hungrier.
However, the maddening hunger that consumed one's reason became bearable at this moment.
Hunger persisted and did not diminish, yet it could no longer affect Wang Yuan's rationality.
Wang Yuan stared at the equipment panel and suddenly realized what was happening.
All of this is due to the effects of the Starfire Sword.
Name: Wang Yuan
Vitality: 4
Mental Power: 6
Comprehension: 4 (Swordsmanship +2)
Equipment: Starfire Sword (Mastery 1%)
An increase of 2 points in vitality brings about a significant increase in physical strength, making one less susceptible to cold.
His mental strength increased by 2 points, making his willpower more resilient and tenacious, and enabling him to endure hunger without panicking.
As for understanding?
Wang Yuan stared at the Starfire Sword in the decoration section, and with a thought, the sword appeared out of thin air in his hand.
Holding the sword, a feeling of blood connection surged into Wang Yuan's heart, and then a sword manual appeared in his mind.
The sword technique is called "Starfire," which is the innate sword technique of the Starfire Sword. The technique is hidden within the sword, and anyone who can communicate with the sword can obtain it.
The "Spark" sword technique has three moves: A Single Cold Star, A Line of Sparks, and A Sky Full of Stars.
Each move is accompanied by illustrations and text, as well as breathing techniques, making them extremely profound and difficult to understand, yet incredibly powerful.
Thanks to his +2 swordsmanship comprehension, Wang Yuan discovered that he could actually understand the profound meaning hidden in the sword manual.
Wang Yuan gripped the Starfire Sword, his heart filled with excitement.
He knew that this world possessed extraordinary power, but he was unable to access it, let alone obtain it.
Now that he has obtained the Starfire Sword, he has the key to unlock extraordinary power.
With power comes the means to survive in this world!
This is not the time to test your skills!
With a thought, Wang Yuan's Starfire Sword vanished from his hand and appeared in his inventory.
"The wounds on this man's body don't seem to have been caused by wild animals, but rather by sharp weapons. Is someone chasing him? If we leave him unattended, when the pursuers arrive here and find the sword missing, won't they search the vicinity?"
Wang Yuan's mind raced. He knew he couldn't leave the body there unless he returned the Starfire Sword.
The Starfire Sword doubled his vitality, mental strength, and comprehension. In a chaotic world, power is everything, and Wang Yuan was unwilling to give it up.
Soon, Wang Yuan made up his mind.
They unloaded the firewood from their shoulders, carried the corpse, and ran towards Black Wind Ridge.
The corpse was already stiff and weighed over 100 pounds, but Wang Yuan lifted it without feeling any strain.
Wang Yuan jogged all the way to Black Wind Ridge.
In the silent mountain forest, the withered branches creaked in the strong wind. Wang Yuan scanned his surroundings and listened carefully. He found that both his eyesight and hearing had improved significantly, and he was able to see and hear details that he could not capture before.
Soon, Wang Yuan discovered several bear hairs as thick and stiff as steel needles.
The sudden drop in temperature caught the bear off guard. The beast hadn't accumulated enough nutrients for hibernation, which is why it attacked the hunter.
Wang Yuan spent half an hour finding the black bear at Black Wind Ridge.
From a distance, the black bear stood about ten feet tall, its body covered in black hair like steel needles. Even from a hundred meters away, Wang Yuan felt a chill run down his spine.
Even with the sword at his side and his strength greatly increased, Wang Yuan knew he was no match for this beast; the difference in strength between them was too great.
The black bear smelled blood and quickly turned its head.
A pair of blood-red eyes, gleaming with an eerie light, were both ferocious and bloodthirsty, yet also revealed a hint of intelligence.
Wang Yuan's muscles tensed, his breathing became rapid, and he felt a chill run down his spine.
The aura emanating from this black bear far surpassed what he had seen in the zoo in his previous life; they were practically two different species.
boom……
Wang Yuan threw down the corpse and ran away as Hei Xiazi caught up with him.
Soon after, the sound of bushes snapping came from behind. Wang Yuan dared not turn around and sped away at his maximum speed, escaping Black Wind Ridge like a monkey.
After running for several miles, Wang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the black bear was not chasing him.
Wang Yuan fed the corpse to the bear cub, intending to make the bear cub take the blame. However, feeding someone else's corpse to a wild animal is ultimately inhumane.
There was no enmity or grudge between them. Having obtained the precious sword and then destroyed the corpse, Wang Yuan felt a pang of guilt.
However, this is the only way to survive in this chaotic world.
"I won't take your sword for nothing. If I ever have the ability in the future, I will help you take revenge."
Wang Yuan muttered to himself, his resentment and guilt greatly diminished.
He returned to the path, picked up some firewood, hurried down the mountain, and returned to Wangjia Village.
"Xiao Yuan, you're back!"
Wang Tiejun opened the village gate and let Wang Yuan in, asking with concern, "You didn't encounter any wild animals, did you?"
"No, I just wandered around the neighborhood."
"That's good. Try not to go too deep into the mountains lately. The weather turned cold suddenly this year, and many wild animals in the mountains are unprepared. Especially that black bear; it might break into the village if it's starving."
"With so many hunters in our village, it's courting death!"
Wang Yuan nodded while tentatively asking a question.
Having witnessed the terror of the black bear, Wang Yuan looked at the village gate again and felt that if that thing really tried to force its way in, the village might not be able to defend against it.
"Normally it wouldn't."
Uncle Tie Jun took a puff of his pipe, a worried look flashing in his eyes, and said, "That beast is intelligent, almost a demon, and knows its own limits. But it's starving, so it doesn't care about being seriously injured. But don't worry, the village head and Master Wang are discussing getting two giant crossbows from the Wang family to place on the gate tower. If that beast dares to come, it won't get away with it."
"It's almost turning into a demon!"
Wang Yuan recalled the gleam of wisdom in Hei Xiazi's eyes, and a chill ran through him as he felt a bad premonition.
"Mother, little sister, I'm back!"
Wang Yuan put down the firewood, which had already piled up thickly in the corner of the house.
"elder brother!"
Niu Niu poked her head out from under the covers, looking at Wang Yuan excitedly with a look of longing and anticipation in her eyes.
Wang Yuan took out a few dried fruits from his pocket, and Niu Niu excitedly crawled out of bed to take them.
Wang Yuan rubbed her head. His mother asked him a couple of questions, then turned and went out of the house, bringing back a bowl of porridge from the kitchen.
After drinking it, Wang Yuan felt that it only quenched his thirst and made him even hungrier.
"Get some rest early. Mom will slice some cured pork and make you some soup tonight!"
"Um!"
Wang Yuan licked his lips; he hadn't seen Youxing for several days and was really craving it.
Then he thought of the Starfire Sword and the Starfire Sword Technique, and his heart burned with excitement. If he could master the Starfire Sword Technique, his strength would increase greatly, and he would never have to worry about not having meat to eat.
