Chapter 36: Prestige
Zheng Fa’s understanding of Ling Crane Body wasn’t progressing as he had hoped. He had mostly mastered the Song Crane Stance, but the martial skill Ling Crane Piercing Cloud Hand from the fourth book relied heavily on concepts in the Ling Crane Heart Sutra.
The problem? He couldn’t make sense of the Heart Sutra at all.
For over a week—plus the seven days he spent back in the modern world—Zheng Fa had poured his efforts into deciphering the four volumes of Ling Crane Body. Nearly half a month later, he had made no progress.
At the training grounds, Zheng Fa handed the four volumes of Ling Crane Body to Instructor Xu.
