Chapter 642: 205. Mana Internal Organs_3

“Ahem.” Noland Lee reminded once again.

Kaiden’s expression stiffened, and he took a deep breath, trying to calm the thoughts that Noland interrupted.

He reached into the pocket of his clothes and took out a small scroll of sheepskin parchment, laying it flat on the table:

“My breathing method and the formula for the cultivation elixir are all recorded on this parchment. You wizards have good memories. Just remember the breathing method and elixir formula while you’re here.”

Noland glanced at the tattered parchment on the table and nodded inwardly.

That’s what he wanted.

That scroll had appeared numerous times in Kaiden’s memory fragments.

But every time, Kaiden never unfolded it, hence Noland could not directly get the contents recorded on it from the memory fragments.

Kaiden’s previous emotional outpouring was sincere, and Noland could both understand and empathize. However, knowing that the parchment was the key, listening to Kaiden’s babbling was more uncomfortable than irritating Noland’s heart.

So, Noland had to use urging and coughing to skip the “plot animation” in the process of teaching the technique.

Noland first sent a Deconstruction technique to the parchment, and after confirming there were no issues, he picked it up to examine it.

As a Calm Knight, Kaiden named his body forging method, breathing method, and elixir according to the “Calm XXX” style.

The Calm Breathing Technique requires Noland to maintain a calm mind in a noisy environment and adjust his breathing frequency and method to lower his heartbeat, blood flow speed, and metabolic rate.

In this state, using the breathing method to extract mana from the natural world and guide it into the body would be very gentle, causing almost no damage to the body.

This is the first layer of the Calm Breathing Technique.

Achieving this layer, Noland can already extract mana from the natural world, which is much more convenient than having to advance to Third-Ring Wizards level to extract mana.

Mana extraction methods of knights and wizards each have their advantages and disadvantages.

Knights have a simple, violent, and widely applicable mana extraction method. They can extract any magic power, but the extraction quantity is unstable, and it brings burden to the body.

Wizards extract mana with precision, focusing on a single or a few types of mana. Although they can extract only one or a few types of mana, the extraction process is smooth, painless, non-damaging, and stable.

As a Mary Sue, Noland wouldn’t reject any opportunity, and he wanted to learn both extraction methods.

In the second layer of the Calm Breathing Technique, Noland is required to maintain a calm mind during combat.

When people get excited, they often concentrate too much on specific things.

On the other hand, calm people can often detect more details during a fight.

The third layer of the Calm Breathing Technique is to keep the mana within the five viscera and six bowels calm.

This mana can cause physical burden to its hosts due to its types and attributes.

Maintaining the calmness of the mana is to reduce the erosion on these internal organs, and thereby extend the knight’s combat lifespan.

The fourth layer is to stay calm while mobilizing mana, without wasting even a single point of mana.

The fifth layer, which is the final layer.

When using martial arts, the Calm Breathing Technique infuses the “calm” mind into the external mana waves, which in turn shakes the enemy’s state of mind, making them lose their will to fight, returning them to a calm state, and then taking advantage of the opportunity to subdue the enemy in a single strike.

Achieving this layer is equivalent to learning the Calm Knight’s martial arts technique.

Hey, after saying so much, it’s simply the “Mind Control”… Noland couldn’t help but complain after understanding the details of the breathing method.

Using this calm martial arts technique to make the enemy lose their will to resist, after long-term cultivation, is far more complicated and difficult than the wizard’s method.

No wonder the Way of the Knight declined.

Although Noland didn’t think highly of the newly acquired Calm Knight training manual, he did not feel disappointed or regretful.

On the contrary, he was overjoyed!

That’s because the Deconstruction results brought him an unexpected harvest.
