Chapter 64 - Grandmaster
"Fire!"
~Psium!~
The arrow went as fast as lightning, almost twice as fast as Aunt Lin's best shot and hit the bull's eye…
"To make an arrow fly faster, you have to ensure that it does no other job other than to hit its target…"
"Gravity can be overcome by simply knowing the weight of your arrow and shooting it in a specific path in air that would have little to no effect on gravity, and that is by using the wind to power its flight…" Dara explained;
"Why would the breeze affect gravity?"
Aunt Lin was really interested in Dara's concept and theory that for the first time she found herself actually thinking about something else other than having him bestow his affection on her;
"Why do you think things float longer in the wind than when there is no wind?"
"Because the wind is moving fast?"
"Yeah, you would be half correct…"
"It is because it doesn't oppose gravity directly which would be suicidal, since that would mean opposing the magnetic force of the entire planet, rather the winds seeks to cancel out the gravity as close to the ground as possible…"
"Picture it like this; a giant is easier to be tripped to a fall, rather than actually carried to a fall, because when carrying the giant, you would be opposing his entire weight which is nigh impossible, but by placing an object in front of its feet at a specific angle, we use the weight of the giant itself to trip it to a fall…"
Dara explained and though it was still a bit complicated, Aunt Lin showed her talent in learning;
"So basically, gravity is easier to manipulate the closer one gets to the ground?"
"Exactly… That is why anything within the wind falls at a slower pace than normal…"
"So your job as an archer or when trying to fire anything to kill a long distance target, you must make sure that your shot follows the direction of the wind, thus the wind acts as extra power or fuel to cause your shot to travel a longer distance…" Dara explained;
"Doesn't that mean the wind can also alter the trajectory of the arrow?" Aunt Lin frowned in confusion as she chipped in;
"Yeah, but that is why I made adjustments to your stance, and that is also why I am going to make another one…"
Dara added as he walked behind Aunt Lin, but because she was slightly taller than he was and her arm slightly longer, Dara had to clinch to her tightly to make the exact adjustment he wanted…
It was then, that Aunt Lin felt his flaccid shlong through his trouser and it stuck to her butt in a way that she could measure the length through what she was feeling, even in its flaccid state, it was still bigger than Uncle Min's at full throttle, and she began to wonder how different it would feel, if Dara could fill her up with it…
"The angle of your height trajectory determines how far your arrow will go, and the strength you put behind it when firing it determines how fast your arrow will reach its destination…"
Dara spoke into her ear from behind which was more than erotic given her state of mind, and she found herself becoming hot all over, but she tried her best to listen…
"The angle of your width when firing the arrow would determine how much the wind would affect the trajectory of your arrow…"
"Thus, where the true intricacies of archery lies is understanding your elements of nature and finding the specific spot and direction with which you can harness its power…"
Dara spoke as he stepped back and Aunt Lin held her position, then Dra asked her;
"What if I told you, you could hit that bird on our fence from here?"
Aunt Lin looked at the distance between her current position and the fence, and then she saw the bird which was just about 6 inches in size, and she thought Dara was being ridiculous…
Shooting a 6 inch bird over the distance of about 40 meters?
She thought he was just trying to give her a confidence boost and should she fail, he would simply give her those speeches about it being her first time and all, but Dara simply told her;
"Hold it, and fire when I tell you to…"
Then Dara stepped in front of her, and Aunt Lin could finally see him from behind…
His posture was as straight as a spear thrusting into the heavens in defiance and his hands held behind him like an Aztec Grandmaster of Zen appreciating nature…
Dara meanwhile was simply feeling the flow of energy, breeze and humidity of the forest through every one of his senses;
Ever since he unlocked his 96 Principal Meridians, he had become more attuned and sensitive towards the energy flow of nature and after just about ten seconds he blurted;
"Fire!"
~Toof!~
~Swish!~
~Biuuu!~
The bow which had been stretched to its limits sprung back to its normal state, catapulting the arrow which tore through the air with blitzing speed, but just as it got within the hearing range of the bird, a little breeze blew past the bird hiding the sound of the arrow, and just like an Owl on the prowl, the arrow silently reached the bird…
Just like the bird cried in shock of abruptly finding an arrow beside it, the arrow impaled it cutting the cry extremely short before carrying the bird itself and impaling it on another tree just outside the fence…
Aunt Lin froze in her firing position for a solid half a minute unable to comprehend that she just accomplished a feat that basically no one in the Dark and Grey Lands could ever accomplish, and she did it with a Silver Tier Meridian power level, and that was bordering on supernatural by the standards of the Dark and Grey Lands…
"Where did you learn your archery skills from?"
"How can you do that?"
Aunt Lin couldn't believe her eyes and her brain was in utter chaos because it was one thing if Dara had shot the arrow himself...
But to be able to make another person who was below average to achieve the results of a seasoned grandmaster just by adjusting their posture and telling them the right time to fire was something even seasoned grandmasters wouldn't be able to achieve...
Not to talk of the fact that it was on their first try!
She looked at Dara and several natural mixed emotions surged within her;
The fear of Dara actually dying from that beast kick and being possessed y something else;
The sexual inclination from having someone so good at many things being around her, the joy that the person was actually close to her, and the happiness that she could become more than she actually was if she could learn archery skills from him…
Dara himself didn't learn the archery, it was like he had always been a grandmaster in terms of archery, and all the experience, feeling, equations, theories, intricacies all came to be part of his very being the moment he took that information from Sam's memory…
Then Sam who had been thought archery through advanced mechanics due to how technologically advanced his generation was, would definitely be godlike in a world where the very first technology is more than innumerable light years before being created [if it ever would]…
Dara turned around and saw the shocked Aunt Lin who was looking at him like he was some king of monster and her rosy cheeks which reminded him that, if this aunt in front of him wasn't affected by the lack of light and heat within the Dark and Grey Lands, she would have been a stunning drop dead gorgeous beauty, if her skin was fair and not dirty due to the environmental effects…
She was sexy, as she was well proportioned in the right places, her waist was so small he could wrap his arm around it, and she was just at an average height…
She was a truly enviable beauty, and the mesmerizing colors of her eyes was a constant reminder of that, but the nature and weather of the area had just tainted her skin so much that it would take a lot of purging, before her skin could become light again, just like himself…
The reason why Aunt Lin was so attracted to him was because of his extremely athletic body, big shlong, but most especially his skin…
Not only was Dara extremely fair due to the fact that he was able to split the dark and poisonous part of the Qi he absorbs during cultivation away from the pure one, and since he was using clean and potent Qi to cultivate, it would surely affect his appearance which became clearer and clearer…
The meridians are channeled into every structure of the body; the brain meridian made his mind clear of unimportant and unproductive thoughts giving him larger mental capacity to think about important things logically, and there was also added boost in terms of thinking speed…
His Flesh meridian as it is stated not only causes him to look more irresistible, handsome and gorgeous; it also causes his skin to be extremely resistant to natural effects like fire, cold and other harmful things, and as a matter of fact, Dara's skin at this point couldn't be pierced by any weapon wielded by anyone within the Warrior/Qi Creation realm…
The heart meridian gave him more endurance and stamina, since it was now large and strong enough to pump more blood into every part of his body to increase their strength and functionality abnormally;
The muscle meridian built his muscles and then compressed it into itself to make it more tensile, tough and thick which made Dara's figure very structured and toned;
His blood meridian provided him with an insanely pure and rich blood, and one doesn't need to explain the advantages of having an extremely pure, potent and mineral rich blood;
The rest of his meridians all had self-explanatory abilities, only in an inhumane level…
Thus, if Aunt Lin could be smitten when he only unlocked a few 8 Great Meridians, one could imagine the difference of an additional 12 Principal Meridians which compounded the all these effects by twelve fold…
