Chapter 4 - Phantom Kick (1/2)

The moment they went into the tent, they discovered that their mother was not inside and was beginning to panic.

” where could she have gone to this time around,” asked Hannah.

” come let's go search for her” replied Jason as he went outside and was just about to start the search when his mother's voice reached his ears, turning around, he saw his mother with a walking stick in her hand as she struggled to walk.

Giving her a hand, Jason helps her to the hut before asking.

” mother where did you head to”.

” I went to meet elder drake for some he promised to me” replied Clara.

Clara turns to look at Ray as she senses some changes in him, and begins to observe him, only after observing him did she know what the changes are as a smile was squeezed out of the painful face of hers.

” not bad, you were able to break through to the 2nd layer of the tempered body,” said Clara with a smile on her face.

”it's all thanks to the herbs else I would still be at the 1st layer ” replied Jason with a smile.

” that not true Jason, it would have taken others a month or two to make a breakthrough, but it took you a day which shows that your breakthrough was near and the ginseng just helped fasten it. And it will be best you continue to train since you have not utilized the whole medicine effect in your body which will help you a lot” said Clara.

” yes, mother ” replied Jason seriously.

” and speaking of training, you won't be training using that method since you have already breakthrough to the 2nd layer of tempered body, you are now qualified to train in martial arts. Here is a leg technique I collected from elder drake, it might be a low-grade leg technique but it should be enough for you to protect yourself from trouble” said Clara as she handed the manual to Jason.

Taking the manual from his mother, Jason was just speechless for his mother to go that far to beg elder drake for manual just so he could cultivate like his peers. With tears in his eyes hug his mother tightly as he spoke.

” I will not let me down mother”.

” I am the one who had let you down for not being able to provide for your training due to my condition, so this is the best I can do” replied Clara with tears flowing from her eyes.

Pulling Jason off her, Clara wipes the tears from her eyes as she chuckles before saying.

” you are no longer a child Jason, what will your peers say when they see you crying here”

” if they have never cried since they were born then let them laugh” replied Jason as he also wiped his eyes

” then they are going to laugh at you when seeing you like this, by the way, ain't you going to check the technique out,” said Clara with a chuckle.

Nodded his head to the words of his mother, Jason open the manual and the first thing that met his eyes was the name of the leg technique.

” phantom kick” mutters Jason.

” according to elder drake, this leg technique when master to the peak, even a 6th layer of tempered body will find it difficult to survive a kick from you but the requirement for practicing this technique is a Strong leg,” said Clara.
