Chapter 34: Xu Yan: The Dragon Subduing Palm is Truly Unmatched

Li Xuan never expected Xu Yan to ask such a question.

One could only say, it was no wonder that someone who could successfully cultivate a fabricated technique had a brain circuit and focus different from ordinary people.

However, this question was not difficult for him!

He immediately looked at Xu Yan with a gratified gaze, his face full of satisfaction with his disciple.

"Disciple, the fact that you can ask this question at this moment shows that your comprehension is quite good, and you have already begun to grasp the essence of the Dragon Subduing Palm.

"There is a saying, 'fight poison with poison.' Have you heard of it, disciple?

"The Dragon Subduing Palm is the same, subduing a dragon with a dragon.

"Dragons are supreme divine beasts, born with divine powers. How easy is it to subdue them?

"The Dragon Subduing Palm, which subdues a dragon with a dragon, not only subdues the dragon's body but also its heart, attacking both its body and will!"

Li Xuan started to fabricate on the spot.

"Subduing the dragon's body and heart, attacking both its body and will?"

Xu Yan was greatly shocked, feeling that the Dragon Subduing Palm was truly profound and unfathomable.

Although he did not understand how to subdue both the body and heart, or how to attack both the body and will, it did not diminish his awe of the Dragon Subduing Palm.

He was extremely excited: "I must master the Dragon Subduing Palm. If I ever encounter a true dragon, I will use this palm to subdue it!"

"Master, I understand. I will definitely master the Dragon Subduing Palm and grasp its true essence!"

Xu Yan said with a determined look.

"Good, I believe in you!"

Li Xuan felt greatly gratified.

"The incantation of the Dragon Subduing Palm, remember it well. This is the essence of the Dragon Subduing Palm. If you can grasp even a fraction of it, you can enter the realm of the Dragon Subduing Palm. If you can fully understand its essence, it will be a martial arts divine skill."

Li Xuan had put a lot of effort into creating the incantation for the Dragon Subduing Palm.

As for whether it would succeed, it was up to Xu Yan.

"Disciple will remember it well!"

Xu Yan said respectfully.

"Listen carefully."

Li Xuan said solemnly: "Dragons have divine powers and adapt to circumstances; their actions awe the world, and their anger shocks heaven and earth; when they are angry, they stir up wind and thunder, and when they are hidden, they leave no trace; they strike for thousands of miles, invincible and indomitable, destroying everything in their path; they are as flexible as water, unpredictable, and follow their will."

Xu Yan murmured the incantation, his eyes filled with thought, a flash of inspiration appearing in his mind. He felt he had some understanding, but could not quite grasp it.

"Follow me."

Li Xuan, with his hands behind his back, walked towards the flat area marked with the Bagua diagram.

"Yes, Master!"

Xu Yan followed respectfully.

"See this, this is the Bagua!"

Li Xuan pointed to the Bagua diagram on the ground.

"Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, Dui..."

Li Xuan explained all the knowledge about the Bagua that he could remember, and also added some fabricated theories that sounded profound and powerful.

"The mysterious changes of the Bagua are endless. How much you can understand and grasp is entirely up to you... Techniques like body movement and footwork can all be understood through the Bagua."

"Master leads you to the door, but cultivation depends on your own effort. You must be good at grasping the fleeting moments of inspiration. Today, I will teach you the Dragon Subduing Palm and the mysteries of the Bagua. Study them well."

After explaining, Li Xuan said solemnly.

"Yes, Master, I will not disappoint you!"

Xu Yan nodded respectfully.

His mind was now filled with the theories of the Bagua, the more he thought about it, the more profound it seemed, and he felt he could continue to understand it indefinitely.

"This is supreme martial arts!"

Xu Yan thought excitedly.

"Manage your cultivation time well. Cooking, feeding the chickens, and other tasks need to be done only once a day."

Li Xuan pondered for a moment and said.

More time must be given for his disciple to cultivate, rather than wasting it on feeding chickens, planting vegetables, and cooking.

At his current level, he could go several days without eating or drinking without any problems.

One meal a day was enough.

"Yes, I understand!"

Xu Yan said respectfully.

"Good, cultivate well."

Li Xuan, with his hands behind his back, walked away with a leisurely pace.

Back in the village, sitting on a chair under a big tree, Li Xuan sighed, wondering if his disciple could successfully cultivate.

Focusing his mind, he tried to explore his "golden finger."

But he found nothing.

The "golden finger" only appeared when Xu Yan made progress in cultivation and received feedback.

"Is it because my strength is too low, so I cannot actively see the golden finger?"

Li Xuan guessed.

"The function of the golden finger is to make the fabricated techniques theoretically cultivable, of course, there must be limits, such as the cultivator's comprehension not being too poor.

"Xu Yan, this foolish disciple, has an extremely strong ability to fill in the blanks and top-notch comprehension, which is why he can cultivate successfully.

"My golden finger must have been activated because Xu Yan successfully cultivated the fabricated technique. Thanks to this prodigy becoming my disciple, otherwise, I would be stuck in this small village with nowhere to go!"

Li Xuan sighed inwardly.

Taking Xu Yan as a disciple was truly a wise decision.

...

Xu Yan walked around the Bagua diagram, lost in deep thought. He felt some vague understanding in his mind, but could not articulate it.

"I will allocate my cultivation time. In the morning, I will practice the Dragon Subduing Palm, and in the afternoon, I will understand the Bagua!"

"Today, I will start with the Dragon Subduing Palm."

Xu Yan thought and returned to the hill where his master had taught him the Dragon Subduing Palm.

He took a deep breath and suddenly struck out with a palm, his blood and qi bursting forth like a scorching torrent.

"No! This is just the power of blood and qi, not the true power of the Dragon Subduing Palm!"

Xu Yan frowned, lost in thought.

He repeatedly pondered the incantation of the Dragon Subduing Palm.

"Dragons have divine powers, and their powers are naturally formidable. To be formidable, one must be fierce and fierce, concentrating power in an instant...

"My realm is still low, so I cannot set too high a standard, so I should lower my requirements...

"How can I exert a palm force as powerful as a dragon's divine power?"

Xu Yan entered a state of deep contemplation.

At a certain moment, images of dragon legends and paintings he had seen before flashed through his mind.

In an instant, he felt some understanding.

Boom!

Blood and qi gathered in his palm, compressing and condensing in an instant, then he struck out with a palm.

A powerful torrent of blood and qi struck a nearby tree.

Crack!

The tree instantly broke and fell.

"I understand how to make the palm force formidable and how to make it surpass the ordinary."

At this moment, Xu Yan opened his eyes, a flash of inspiration appearing in his mind, understanding how to exert a formidable palm force.

He saw his chest and abdomen suddenly bulge, and he pushed out his palms. The torrent of blood and qi instantly became incredibly fierce, exploding out with even greater power!

Boom!

A small pit was blasted into the ground.

"I have finally grasped some of the basics. This is just the beginning. This palm is more than twice as powerful as my full-strength strike before cultivating the Dragon Subduing Palm. This is not the limit, but just the beginning!"

Xu Yan was extremely excited.

"Even grasping just a bit of the essence, I can exert such powerful palm force. The Dragon Subduing Palm is truly unmatched in power!"

With this understanding, the next step was to consolidate this level of understanding, practice it repeatedly, and continue to deepen his understanding to perfect it.
