I'm Just Making Up The Exercises, My Disciple, Have You Really Mastered Them?

Chapter 38: Xu Yan's Realization, Qing Hong's Footwork

After thinking about the footwork formula, Li Xuan came to the Eight Trigrams and said, "Disciple, your cultivation has improved in speed and your steps have become more agile.

"But you are still far from comprehending the footwork.

"Now that you have gained some understanding of the footwork, it is time for me to teach you the footwork formula.

"Remember it well."

Xu Yan stopped in his tracks and excitedly said, "Yes, Master!"

"The power of footwork lies in being light and fast. Light as a feather, silent and invisible. Fast as lightning..."

Li Xuan spoke with the tone of a master.

Xu Yan listened thoughtfully, and vaguely understood how to comprehend the footwork.

"Light as a goose feather, swift as thunder without a trace!"

Li Xuan recited the newly created formula word by word.

"Disciple, you should contemplate this formula!"

After saying that, Li Xuan turned around and left with his hands behind his back.

"Yes, Master!"

Xu Yan bowed.

Having given Xu Yan two lines of the formula, it was up to Xu Yan himself to comprehend the footwork.

However, Li Xuan believed that his disciple would not disappoint him.

In Xu Yan's mind, those two lines of the formula were all he could think about. The more he contemplated, the more profound they seemed.

When he looked up and saw that his master had already left, he was about to continue practicing when he suddenly froze.

"Master said that the power of footwork lies in being light and fast...

"What is this? Master's steps are so leisurely and relaxed..."

Xu Yan saw his master's leisurely steps as he left, with his hands behind his back, and there was an indescribable ease in his demeanor.

"Master's steps are leisurely. Could it be that he unintentionally revealed his footwork?

"No! Master's cultivation is already at a state of returning to simplicity. Although he seems to be walking slowly, he actually contains the highest principles of footwork.

"It is said that actions speak louder than words. When Master just taught me the formula, was he demonstrating it through his steps?

"Yes! It must be like this. I must understand the profound meaning contained in Master's steps!"

After Xu Yan's imagination, he suddenly became spirited.

He stared at his master's steps without blinking, and saw that his master's steps had an indescribable leisureliness. In the lightness and agility, there was also a sense of freedom.

The more he looked, the more he felt that his master's steps contained the profound principles of footwork.

"Light as a goose feather, swift as thunder without a trace... I have some understanding."

Xu Yan stared at his master's steps, and gradually, a flash of insight appeared in his mind. The leisurely, agile, and free steps were integrated with the formula.

He vaguely understood something.

At this moment, Li Xuan's figure had already disappeared from Xu Yan's sight.

Li Xuan was in a good mood at this moment. He had just taught his disciple two lines of the formula, and soon he would receive feedback on his footwork.

Therefore, as he walked, his steps were leisurely and carefree. He even wanted to hum a few songs.

He had no idea that Xu Yan, seeing his carefree steps, had embarked on a self-imagination journey to comprehend the profound principles of the steps.

...

Since Xu Yan imagined his master's steps and comprehended the profound principles, he constantly saw the carefree and leisurely steps in his mind while practicing the footwork.

With the help of the formula, he made continuous progress in his comprehension.

It felt as if as long as he broke through a layer of paper, he would be able to comprehend the powerful footwork.

In the Eight Trigrams Diagram, Xu Yan's steps became faster, landing silently. His turns became smoother, and his leaps had a floating quality.

His figure floated and moved on the Eight Trigrams, his footsteps becoming lighter and his speed continuously increasing.

"Faster!

"I feel that I'm just a little bit away from comprehending the footwork."

Xu Yan's gaze was firm.

At a certain moment, only his master's leisurely and carefree footsteps remained in his mind, gradually becoming more profound and clear.

He had a kind of enlightenment surging in his heart.

"As light as a goose feather falling leaf, swift as thunder without a trace... I have some understanding now. Light goose feathers floating, drifting silently, thunderous but momentary... This is called the Light Goose Body Technique.

"Although I haven't fully comprehended its true meaning, I have at least grasped the basics of the body technique.

"Light goose feathers float silently, disappearing in an instant—Light Goose Body Technique!"

At a certain moment, Xu Yan was filled with boundless enlightenment, and in that instant, his figure became ethereal.

In the blink of an eye, as if teleporting, he arrived at another position.

Landing silently, not stirring up a speck of dust.

His figure floated and flickered within the Eight Trigrams Diagram, constantly shifting, becoming faster and lighter. In an instant, he changed positions.

Moreover, at such a rapid speed, there was not even the slightest sound of wind.

In the midst of his ethereal movements, as light as a goose feather, completely soundless.

"I have finally successfully cultivated the Light Goose Body Technique!"

Xu Yan was extremely excited.

With a long roar, he soared into the air, instantly appearing a hundred zhang away. Raising his hand, he unleashed a Dragon Subduing Palm, and a crimson dragon burst forth, creating a pit on the ground.

Xu Yan's figure flickered, attacking with the Dragon Subduing Palm, sometimes left, sometimes right, sometimes up, sometimes down, constantly shifting and changing positions in an instant. And the Dragon Subduing Palm naturally also struck from different angles in an instant.

With the realization of the body technique, Xu Yan's combat power soared in an instant.

"Next, I will work hard to cultivate and quickly advance to the Lifeblood Realm!"

Xu Yan's heart was filled with excitement.

...

"Your disciple has successfully cultivated the body technique you created, and named it the Light Goose Body Technique. You have directly achieved mastery in the body technique, ten times stronger than those of the same realm."

On the third day of transmitting the mantra to Xu Yan.

Li Xuan was sitting on a chair, playing with a jade ruyi.

Suddenly, golden light appeared.

In his mind, the profound principles of the Light Goose Body Technique instantly emerged, directly achieving mastery.

Li Xuan stood up directly, his face showing excitement.

"Indeed, having a mantra or not makes a difference.

"My disciple, his talent is monstrous. As long as there is a mantra, he can comprehend it.

"It's not in vain that I racked my brains to create the mantra.

"It seems that I can pass on the cultivation method of the Innate Realm to him in advance, let him familiarize himself with it and strive to break through the Innate Realm as soon as possible."

With a movement of his feet, as light as a goose feather, soundless and in an instant, he had already left the small village.

His figure flickered, extremely fast but without making any sound, silently and stealthily.

Li Xuan played with the jade ruyi in his hand, and he had already arrived at Xu Yan's cultivation location.

He saw his disciple, displaying the body technique, constantly unleashing the Dragon Subduing Palm, using the body technique to practice countermeasures.

"It's time for the master to show off again!"

A smile appeared on Li Xuan's face.

With a movement of his figure, soundless and in an instant, he appeared behind Xu Yan.

With his Lifeblood Realm mastery, a hundred times stronger than those of the same realm, and the mastery of the Light Goose Body Technique, ten times stronger than those of the same realm, Xu Yan couldn't perceive his arrival.

At this moment, Xu Yan was practicing excitedly, completely unaware that there was someone behind him, following his every move.

Li Xuan had his hands behind his back, regardless of how Xu Yan shifted and moved, he always followed behind Xu Yan, soundless and unnoticed by Xu Yan.

"My disciple, in a moment, I will let you experience the power of your master!"

A joyful smile appeared on his face.
