Chapter 5 - 5: Soaring Snake Technique

”This.”

Just by flipping through it, Jiang Fan was immediately bewildered because he couldnʼt understand it at all.

The characters inside looked like ghostly scribbles to him.

In his past life, he at least had a bachelorʼs degree and worked as an education trainer, teaching students.

But in this world, he had become illiterate.

He could only recognize his own name.

It wasnʼt his fault either.

In this world, where do poor people have the opportunity to learn to read?

Only those in high places, the children of noble families, have the chance to learn literacy.

As for farmers and fishermen, these bottom-tier professions exhaust all their energy just to keep themselves fed.

Even if they wanted to learn, they wouldnʼt find a way.

Layers of obstacles ensure that poor people can only remain poor all their lives.

Thereʼs no way to climb upwards.

Boom~~

At this moment, Jiang Fan unconsciously gave the book a light tap with his hand, and a golden glow emerged from him, instantly enveloping the book.

The next second, countless characters and images inside the book seemed to come alive, instantly merging into the depths of his consciousness. Then, the book turned to ash and vanished.

Immediately, he sensed a golden dot appearing deep in his consciousness, and he lightly tapped it.

Suddenly, a light screen appeared in front of him.

[Name: Jiang Fan]

[Life Chart: Great Blessings Equal to Heaven, Attribute: Surviving Great Calamities Leads to Fortune]

[Lifespan: 48]

[Luck Points: 100]

[Cultivation Technique: Soaring Snake Technique (Incomplete), Beginner (+)]

[Skills: Fishing (Beginner (+))]

[Realm: None]

Seeing this information, Jiang Fan immediately realized that this was a built-in ability of his Life Chart, enabling him to understand his current situation better.

”I can only live to forty-eight?”

Jiang Fan was speechless. Even though he might not live to a ripe old age, he expected at least to reach seventy or eighty.

But now it seems he overestimated his physical condition.

As a fishermanʼs child, he was malnourished from a young age, never having enough to eat or warm clothes, facing all kinds of harsh weather; his body must have countless hidden problems already.

Itʼs just that these issues havenʼt fully surfaced because heʼs still young.

His parents were like this, worked hard, got sick, and passed away.

If things continue like this, he might follow in his parentsʼ footsteps.

”If I want to solve this problem, I probably have to practice martial arts.”

Jiang Fan clenched his fist.

Undoubtedly, this martial arts technique, Soaring Snake Technique, is his biggest gain this time, one of the top martial arts techniques in this world.

Soaring Snake is a legendary Divine Beast, capable of cloud riding, all-powerful.

This martial arts technique was created by mimicking the Soaring Snake.

Once mastered, its power is profound and astonishing.

However, this technique is incomplete, not whole.

If it were complete, it would be more than just an Eighth-Grade Opportunity.

”This technique is truly precious.”

Jiang Fan was very excited, knowing how valuable martial arts techniques are in this world.

Generally, only noble families and martial halls possess them.

For ordinary people, even touching one is practically impossible.

Even if someone joins a martial hall, theyʼll have to spend a lot of silver taels and serve the master faithfully for decades to get a glimpse of the true teachings.

Joining a noble family requires becoming a servant or slave to learn martial arts techniques.

The existence of martial arts techniques restricts countless ordinary peopleʼs possibilities of advancing further.

If this technique were leaked, it would undoubtedly bring about a catastrophe, one he couldnʼt withstand.

Fortunately, the mysterious energy surging from himself turned this secret manual to ash just now.

This way, other than himself, no one else can find this technique anymore.

And gaining such enlightenment allowed him to instantly learn the worldʼs language.

Although not very proficient, heʼs no longer illiterate.

”Now I have two abilities to improve.”

”One is the Soaring Snake Technique, and the other is the skill of fishing.”

”And they all have plus signs, meaning I can improve them using luck points.”

”So thatʼs the purpose of luck points?”

Jiang Fan clenched his fist.

He finally knew the purpose of luck points, which is to spend them to elevate cultivation techniques and improve the skills on himself; itʼs truly profound.

While others need to practice diligently to improve, he just needs to use luck points.

The benefits are enormous.

After all, his Life Chart gives him Great Blessings Equal to Heaven, lacking nothing but destiny.

”But destiny is not so easily obtained.”

”The saying ʼsurviving great calamities leads to fortuneʼ means that only through overcoming tribulations can one gain destiny.”

”If you donʼt overcome them, you may end up dead and gone.”

”But once you do, destiny blesses you, leading to opportunities.”

”Living in turbulent times now, there are plenty of tribulations.”

Jiang Fan thought his way to obtaining luck points was simple: just staying alive peacefully, as ordinary people in this world find it incredibly hard, facing tribulations everywhere.

Simply surviving is an arduous task.

”So, as long as I act low-key and cautiously, I can naturally overcome many tribulations and collect luck points.”

”Then use the mysterious energy of luck points to enhance my power.”

”Earlier, I survived a killing from the Dragon King Gang and acquired a hundred luck points.”

”These luck points can enhance many of my abilities.”

Jiang Fan pondered on how to enhance his abilities.

If he improves his fishing skills, he can increase his fishing techniques, catch more fish, earn money, and become the leading fisherman in Osmanthus Village.

If he can catch Treasure Fish, he wonʼt worry about food and drink.

But after witnessing todayʼs events, he knows that in chaotic times, martial prowess is paramount.

Even as the best fisherman, heʼd still be exploited by the Dragon King Gang.

All his hard-caught fish would not be kept, but instead, become gifts for others.

With absolute martial strength, how would those from the Dragon King Gang dare to harm him?!

If they dared to attack, he could just strike back and kill them.

Without strength, he can only endure, humble, and submissive.

So his choice has always been one, to elevate his martial power.

”In that case, no more words are needed.”

”Soaring Snake Technique, time for entry.”

Jiang Fan took a deep breath and tapped the plus sign next to the Soaring Snake Technique.

Suddenly, all the luck points on the screen disappeared, one hundred luck points completely consumed.
