The huge wooden barrel is filled with light green potion, and the air is filled with a complex herbal smell.
The calm water surface suddenly surged, and a pale face slowly floated upward, with light green liquid flowing from both sides of the face.
Duan Mu stood up from the barrel shirtless and looked at the scars on his chest. A night of medicinal bath and special healing techniques had made the wound on his chest that was a fatal wound yesterday now scarred, even in some places.
It has been separated, revealing new white skin.
Wow.
Standing up from the wooden barrel, Duan Mu wiped his body, but did not use water to wash away the scent of herbs that had been marinated on his body.
Anyway, the smell is not particularly unpleasant, and according to Duan Muxin's knowledge, these medicinal aromas will be of great benefit to his subsequent recovery.
While Duan Mu was getting dressed, he focused his attention on the system interface in his mind.

There hasn't been much improvement in spiritual pressure as usual. Even after yesterday's battle, it only increased by more than 60 points.
Compared with other aspects, although Duan Mu majored in high-level ghost ways this month, his greatest progress was in the low-level ghost ways that he practiced by the way, because after learning high-level ghost ways, he then used the foundation of high-level ghost ways to practice low-level ghost ways.
The ghost path is like a dimensionality reduction attack.
In just one month, all the low-level ghost paths activated by Duan Mu reached the 'intermediate' level.
"Hiss~~"
Looking at the three digits behind the current experience value, Duan Mu felt a toothache.
You have to learn Huidao sooner or later, but in Duan Mu's mind, the priority of Huidao is far behind spiritual pressure and combat skills. And normally, with Duan Mu's injury yesterday, he only needs to upgrade Huidao to the intermediate level.
Over 3000 is enough.
But before investing experience points, Duan Mu was not sure how much experience he should invest in the 'Return Path' to ensure that he could regain his combat effectiveness as soon as possible. Moreover, he was not allowed to think too much at that moment, so he simply thought about everything at once.
Added to the reply.
This caused Duan Mu’s original training plan to fail before it even started...
He originally planned to use the 2,800 experience points he finally earned to practice for a month and raise his spiritual pressure to a high level, which was the level of deputy captain of the Gotei Thirteenth Team.
"I knew I would end up like this. After gaining experience points yesterday, I directly added all my spiritual pressure in one go."
Duan Mu regretted so much when he thought of this. After the battle started, he never thought that the battle would be so dangerous. He was even thinking about how to use the experience points so as not to waste them.
This is because Duan Mu is far stronger than Jiu Su and others in terms of spiritual pressure strength and combat skills.
Those villains of low-level officials are an example. It doesn't take any effort to deal with Duan Mu. Duan Mu's mental state at that time can be described as "I have the advantage"... As a result, the weak defeated the strong, and almost almost
Hacked to death with a knife.
And the reason for this result...
It's entirely because, in addition to the two factors of spiritual pressure strength and combat skills, Duan Mu ignored one of the most important factors in combat.
instinct!!
In terms of hard power, Jiu Su is indeed weaker than Duan Mu, but the fighting instincts he has accumulated through hundreds of years of life and death fighting are incomparable to Duan Mu. After all, his fighting experience is even greater than that of those low-level warriors.
The villains at the level of chief officials are far inferior.
The so-called combat instinct not only includes quick response to crises and a keen sense of vulnerability, but also includes fighting will and combat IQ. These things can often have unexpected effects in combat.
Even though he had expected that Jiu Su would use his weaknesses to attack him, Duan Mu still thought that Jiu Su would not come so soon and that he would have time to prepare for it. However, he was caught off guard by Jiu Su.
.
One wrong step, one wrong step after another, and finally I ended up in the same situation as yesterday.
This kind of fighting instinct cannot be developed in a short period of time, let alone Duan Mu, who has experienced less than a handful of battles.
The person with the strongest fighting instinct in Duan Mu's impression is the captain of Team 11, Kenpachi Zaraki!
Jiusu is naturally not qualified to be compared with Zaraki Kenpachi, but the battle between Jiusu and Duanmu is somewhat similar to the battle between Zaraki Kenpachi and the former captain of the 11th Division. Both parties have no skills at all.
, not proficient in beheading, relying on instinct to win.
Although he survived the battle between Duan Mu and Jiu Su, from a combat perspective...
I lost.
Duan Mu will not deny this matter.
After every battle, no matter he wins or loses, Duan Mu will reflect on the mistakes he made during the battle afterwards, and he will not selectively forget his failures.
Putting aside the flaws in this battle, from the very beginning of the battle, I made a mistake that I should never have made.
You underestimated your opponent!
If enough attention was given to Jiu Su and others from the beginning, Duan Mu could add all the experience points gained to the spiritual pressure, and use absolute strength to make up for the shortcoming of lack of combat experience.
actually……
At the moment when he decided to resist, Duan Mu also thought about whether he should add all his experience points to the spiritual pressure, and then use the deputy captain level's spiritual pressure defense' to resist Jiu Su's sword.
Even if he is injured, it may only be a minor injury.
With a low-level reply, you can continue fighting even without the need for healing.
But this idea was eventually given up by Duan Mu.
Because this is 'maybe' after all. Putting aside whether the spiritual pressure defense will be as he imagined, at that critical moment, even if Duan Mu invests experience points in time, there will not be enough time to get familiar with and use growth.
Use the last spiritual pressure to form a defense.
It can be said that in a hurry, the spiritual pressure he can mobilize will not change much.
Therefore, Duan Mu staggered the time and chose the method of 'returning to the road' that could be used later.
Although he would regret his choice, judging from the situation at the time, this was indeed the best solution Duan Mu could think of. Even if he had to do it again, Duan Mu would make the same choice.
After reflecting on the mistakes he had made from beginning to end, Duan Mu's temperament slightly changed.
Every battle experience is a valuable lesson for him.
Although the skills of those villains are not worth mentioning, there are some things about them that cannot be learned elsewhere, and they are worthy of Duan Mu's careful study.
"As expected... I still want to drink."
Duan Mu muttered, took out a new set of work clothes, put them on, and left the bedroom.
"Um?"
After leaving the bedroom and walking a few steps, Duan Mu suddenly looked surprised: "It's so quiet?"
You must know that since the tavern started operating, every time Duan Mu went downstairs, he was greeted by an extremely noisy scene.
However, when he went to the first floor and saw the back of the man sitting at the wine table drinking, he understood why the pub was so quiet.
