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

Chapter 93 Seeking Guidance from Seniors (Requesting Monthly Votes)

Li Xuan calmly glanced at Xie Lingfeng and Xie Lingfeng, then spoke, "I already understand what you two mean."

"Please, senior, guide us!" Xie Lingfeng respectfully said.

"To unravel the confusion, you must understand its root. What cultivation technique are you two practicing?" Li Xuan twirled a jade ruyi in his hand, with a faint smile on his face.

"Senior, we are practicing the Sword Sovereign Cliff's inheritance technique," Xie Lingfeng replied.

"How much of the technique have you comprehended?" Li Xuan continued to ask.

Xie Lingfeng was taken aback. How much had he comprehended?

"I have completely comprehended it," Xie Lingfeng said.

Li Xuan smiled mysteriously, with a deep meaning in his smile. "Have you truly comprehended it?"

Being questioned like this, Xie Lingfeng suddenly became unsure of himself.

"Could I have missed something and not fully comprehended it?" he wondered.

Hu Shan was also deep in thought, questioning whether he had truly comprehended it.

"Bring forth the technique. Let me take a look and test you two to see if you have truly grasped the true meaning of the technique," Li Xuan said, seemingly having already made up his mind that they hadn't comprehended the true meaning of the technique.

"Yes, senior!" Xie Lingfeng and Hu Shan didn't think much of it.

They had already accepted that they were practicing a fake Martial Dao technique, one that couldn't be passed on, so they didn't care anymore.

Moreover, how could a master appreciate such a crude fake Martial Dao technique?

"Senior, please wait a moment. I will write down the technique," Xie Lingfeng respectfully said.

"No need!" Li Xuan nodded.

Shi Er brought paper and pen for them.

Xie Lingfeng and Hu Shan began to silently write down the technique.

Li Xuan spoke again, "Write down everything you know about the technique. Perhaps you two are just greedy and haven't fully understood its true meaning."

"Yes, senior!" Xie Lingfeng and Hu Shan's spirits were lifted.

"Perhaps what I have been cultivating is not a fake Martial Dao technique? Perhaps I just haven't comprehended its true meaning, which is why I haven't cultivated True Martial Dao?" Xie Lingfeng's eyes lit up with excitement as he thought this.

An hour later, Xie Lingfeng and Hu Shan had written down everything they had cultivated and knew about the technique.

Li Xuan took a glance at it, just a glance. He didn't even look at the specific content of the technique.

After all, a master wouldn't bother to look at such things.

Besides, he hadn't prepared to truly evaluate their techniques.

"Whether it is true or fake, as long as your Martial Dao heart is firm, you will achieve something," Li Xuan calmly said, putting down the technique.

Xie Lingfeng and Hu Shan immediately looked disappointed.

"Indeed, this is a fake Martial Dao technique. Senior was just consoling us," Hu Shan's eyes turned dull, his heart sinking. It seemed that the hope that had just ignited had been extinguished.

"Please, senior, guide us on the path of Martial Dao!" Xie Lingfeng prostrated himself on the ground.

"Please, senior, guide us!" Hu Shan also prostrated himself on the ground.

Li Xuan pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Your foundations are already established, so starting over is not advisable... However, since you have cultivated... let's call it True Qi for now."

"True Qi is impure, which is why your Martial Dao is not solid and your foundation is not stable."

"The primary issue is to purify your True Qi and return to the correct path of Martial Dao."

These were the countermeasures that Li Xuan had already thought of.

"Senior, how should one refine True Qi?"

Xie Lingfeng asked respectfully.

When he was in the capital of the Qi Kingdom, he had thought about this question while communicating with Xu Yan.

However, Xu Yan had not yet broken through the Innate Realm and couldn't provide a method.

As long as one refines the internal energy of the Martial Dao into Martial Dao True Qi, it can be considered a return to the right path of the Martial Dao. This is the first step and is crucial.

If one cannot refine True Qi, everything would be in vain.

Only by continuing to cultivate the pseudo Martial Dao and breaking through to the Grandmaster realm.

This is not what Xie Lingfeng wants.

Even if he becomes a Grandmaster, so what?

He still cannot enter the path of the sword and cannot become a true practitioner of the Martial Dao.

"Refining True Qi, it's difficult and not difficult."

Li Xuan did not give any guarantees.

After all, how to refine the internal energy of the Martial Dao into True Qi was a method he derived from refining blood into True Qi through Qi Refining. He made some modifications to it.

Whether it would be successful or not cannot be guaranteed.

Hu Shan didn't understand and asked, "Senior, what does this mean?"

Meng Chong, who was on the side, couldn't help but explain, "What my master means is that whether you can refine True Qi depends on your talent and whether you can comprehend the techniques."

"You should know that for a set of techniques, some people can successfully cultivate them, while others cannot even enter the door."

"That's why it's difficult and not difficult."

Hu Shan's face turned red and he lowered his head in embarrassment, saying, "I am ignorant!"

He felt a little panicked in his heart, "Could it be that I can't comprehend and refine True Qi?"

Xie Lingfeng, on the other hand, was not panicked. He firmly believed that he could refine True Qi.

"Please, senior, teach me the method of refining True Qi!"

He respectfully prostrated on the ground.

"Meeting each other is fate, so be it."

Li Xuan nodded.

"Thank you, senior!"

Xie Lingfeng and the other person were extremely excited.

"Listen carefully..."

Li Xuan transmitted the method of refining True Qi to the two of them.

After Xu Yan listened to the technique, he suddenly realized, so that's how it is!

It's similar to refining blood into Innate True Qi.

"Do you remember?"

After Li Xuan finished explaining, he asked.

"I remember, senior!"

Xie Lingfeng said respectfully.

Hu Shan opened his mouth and finally nodded, "I remember too!"

Li Xuan glanced at Hu Shan. It was clear that this guy didn't remember, but he couldn't be bothered with him. If he didn't understand, he would go ask Xie Lingfeng.

From this, the difference in talent can also be seen.

"Thank you, senior, for imparting the technique!"

Xie Lingfeng respectfully kowtowed three times.

Hu Shan also hurriedly followed suit and kowtowed three times heavily.

"Get up."

Li Xuan said.

These two really know how to show respect!

The kowtowing was even more intense than when his own disciple paid respects to his master.

"I won't disturb your peace, senior."

Xie Lingfeng bowed and saluted.

"Mm!"

Li Xuan nodded.

"Thank you, brother. Let's go, let's have a sparring session."

Xu Yan was excited.

After breaking through the Innate Realm, he hadn't fought against Xie Lingfeng yet. Now he could finally have a sparring session.

"Good!"

Xie Lingfeng nodded.

Every time they sparred, he was able to gain something.

Meng Chong also looked excited, looking at Hu Shan and said, "Let's spar."

Hu Shan was still conflicted. He hadn't memorized the method of refining True Qi completely, and he felt embarrassed to admit that he hadn't remembered it.

"Alright."

Seeing Meng Chong's invitation, he absentmindedly agreed.

The four of them left the courtyard and arrived at the mountains outside the county.

"Young master, I didn't memorize the method of refining True Qi completely. Can you explain it to me?" Hu Shan approached Xie Lingfeng awkwardly and asked.

Xie Lingfeng looked at him speechlessly.

"I... I didn't feel comfortable saying it directly in front of my seniors," Hu Shan said sheepishly.

Meng Chong patted his shoulder and said, "Come on, let me show you the Martial Dao of an Inner Domain Grandmaster. I can tell you what you didn't remember."

Hu Shan felt even more embarrassed. Among the four of them, he was the only one who hadn't remembered.

"Alright."

Hu Shan nodded and followed Meng Chong to another side.

"Thank you, Brother Xie!"

Xu Yan raised his hand and grabbed a tree branch.

Xie Lingfeng was about to grab a tree branch as well when Xu Yan said, "Brother Xie, use your sword."

"Alright."

Xie Lingfeng's mouth twitched. Xu Yan was already so confident that he wanted to spar with a tree branch against him?

Could it be that his strength had become so terrifying after breaking through the Innate Realm?

Thinking of Xu Yan's Sword Intent, Xie Lingfeng didn't dare to be careless.

The sword was unsheathed.

"Be careful, Brother Xu!"

As soon as he made a move, he used his strongest sword technique, the Flying Rainbow Sword!

The sword light flashed in an instant, extremely fast and swift.

Xu Yan pointed his sword, and a sword aura emanated from the tree branch, shattering the sword light. Then, a mighty sword aura surged like a river, flowing endlessly!

Xie Lingfeng's heart trembled. This seemed to be the Ten Thousand Rivers Sword Technique, but it was even more fierce and powerful than the Ten Thousand Rivers Sword Technique.

"So this is Innate True Qi?"

The mighty sword aura, flowing endlessly, even though it was displayed with a tree branch and Xu Yan didn't use Sword Intent, Xie Lingfeng still felt a strong sense of oppression.

The aura of a Grandmaster Martial Artist, bursting with full force, the luck within the Martial Dao circulating, the sword radiated a dazzling sword glow as he went all out.

Xu Yan's strength after breaking through was terrifying. He was definitely not an opponent.

The purity and power of Innate True Qi surpassed his Martial Dao's internal qi by more than a bit.

Xu Yan and Xie Lingfeng sparred using sword techniques, with sharp sword auras crisscrossing.

On the other hand, Meng Chong and Hu Shan's spar was much more intense.

Meng Chong held a large knife, his body shining with golden light. With a swift movement, he directly shifted to Hu Shan's left side and fiercely slashed down with the knife.

Hu Shan's heart skipped a beat as he thrust his sword forward with a loud bang.

He felt a terrifying force surging from the large knife. His heart trembled. What kind of terrifying physical strength was this?

He couldn't afford to be careless and immediately displayed the Gale Sword Technique.

Meng Chong held the large knife and continuously hacked, his blood and qi forming a golden bell, and his robust body seemed to have expanded.

His style of attack was ferocious and unmatched, with all his strength concentrated in the large knife.

However, he was only at the Small Accomplishment of the Lifeblood Realm, and his strength was inferior to Hu Shan's. Although he fought fiercely, Hu Shan was still able to handle it with ease.

Suddenly, Meng Chong charged forward, ignoring the sword aura sweeping towards him, and fiercely hacked at Hu Shan.

"Be careful!"

Hu Shan's expression changed, and he hurriedly tried to retract his move, but it was already too late.

He could only watch as several sword auras swept towards Meng Chong. His heart sank!

If this attack landed, Meng Chong would either die or be seriously injured.

What should he do?

However, an even more shocking scene unfolded.

The sword aura exploded on Meng Chong's body, causing cracks to appear in the golden light on his body. The remaining sword aura only left shallow white marks on Meng Chong's body!

Not even a single wound appeared!

In shock, he suddenly felt a violent flash of knife light, and thought to himself that it was not good. He hurriedly raised his sword to block it.

Clang!

The sword and knife clashed heavily.

Hu Shan felt a tremendous force pressing down from the knife, causing his arm to bend and almost lose his grip on the sword. With a loud bang, he sank half a foot into the ground!

"How is this possible!"

He almost couldn't withstand that strike!

Although it was rushed, he was still a Martial Artist at the Grandmaster Realm. With the support of his Martial Dao internal energy, he almost couldn't withstand Meng Chong's strike, who had just entered the Martial Dao.

Is this the difference between True Martial Dao and pseudo Martial Dao?

The sword trembled and knocked away the big knife as his figure quickly retreated.

Looking at Meng Chong with a shocked expression, he asked, "Are you not injured?"

Meng Chong patted his chest and said, "Of course not. Your sword energy is indeed strong. If you had put in another five or six percent of your strength, you could have injured me!"

Hu Shan didn't know what to say for a moment.

What kind of terrifying physical body is this?

Even if it was made of steel, it would have been cut through like tofu by his sword energy.

Yet Meng Chong was completely unharmed.

Only faint white marks were left on his skin, which disappeared in a moment.

This physical body is truly terrifying.

"So this is the physical body Martial Dao?"

Hu Shan didn't know how to describe his feelings at this moment.

If Meng Chong were to break through to the Innate Realm, even if he went all out, he probably wouldn't be able to break through his physical defense.

Meng Chong looked at the sword in his hand. Although his attack just now was fierce, he felt that something was missing, and he couldn't fully unleash his strength.

"The martial arts I have learned in the martial world are ultimately too weak. I can't fully display my strength and the power that Martial Dao should have. I need to find a master to learn the art of the knife!"

Meng Chong thought to himself and inserted the sword into the ground. He clenched his fist and looked at Hu Shan, saying, "Come, let's go again!"

"You don't need a knife?"

Hu Shan frowned.

"I haven't learned the knife yet. Since I don't understand the knife, I will use the Wind and Thunder Diamond Fist to spar with you."

Meng Chong said straightforwardly.

Hu Shan was speechless. How could someone so fierce and unmatched say that he hadn't learned the knife? He didn't understand the knife?

"With this strength, even First Grade Martial Artists in the Inner Domain wouldn't be able to withstand his knife."

Looking around the Inner Domain, there were probably only a handful of First Grade Martial Artists who could withstand Meng Chong's fierce strike.

And these First Grade Martial Artists were already the true peak of First Grade Martial Artists.

Meng Chong was only at the beginning stage of the Martial Dao, according to his own words, he was at the small accomplishment of the Lifeblood Realm.

If he were to reach the large accomplishment of the Lifeblood Realm, he could sweep through the Inner Domain's First Grade Martial Artists and even challenge some weaker grandmasters.

Hu Shan's heart surged with excitement and longing. "This is the might of True Martial Dao. I must refine True Qi. Once I succeed in my Martial Dao and become a True Martial Dao practitioner, will I have the opportunity to challenge some weaker grandmasters?"

Just thinking about it made his blood boil. He sheathed his sword and said, "Then I will use my fist to spar with you!"

Meng Chong raised an eyebrow and asked, "Are you sure you want to spar with me using your fists?"

Hu Shan's sword technique was indeed strong, and he was not Meng Chong's opponent.

If they were to spar using fists, the outcome would be unpredictable, especially in close combat.

"You underestimate me. Although I am known as the Sword Venerable, my fist technique, palm technique, and body technique are also top-notch."

Hu Shan clenched his fists and took the initiative to attack.

"Watch closely!"

Boom!

His fist was fierce, and in an instant, it was close to Meng Chong's face.

"Good!"

Meng Chong's eyes lit up. With a low roar, his fist struck like thunder, powerful and swift.

After one punch, it was followed by another like a raging wind. His figure moved and constantly approached, with the sound of wind and thunder echoing.

He seemed to transform into a golden arhat, and in just an instant, he suppressed Hu Shan's fist technique.

In an instant, he was already close to Hu Shan. The thunderous fist power seemed to be unstoppable, constantly penetrating through Hu Shan's defense gaps and striking him. For a moment, Hu Shan appeared somewhat flustered.

All he could see before him was the roaring wind and thunder, terrifying and impossible to defend against.

He suddenly regretted not using his sword. Meng Chong's fist technique was too terrifying.
