Chapter 9: The Surging Waves Palm.

5 min read1,307 words

Three days later, as the sun set and the afterglow cast its light upon the earth, vast patches of crimson clouds dominated the western horizon.

In the silent mountain forest, Du Shaofu formed a series of hand seals, a surge of mystic energy gathering in his palm, flowing through specific meridians and mystic acupoints within his body, seamlessly converging back into his palm.

The moment the mystic energy converged in his palm, Du Shaofu's aura instantly became overwhelmingly fierce, like a slumbering fierce beast awakening, radiating an astonishing presence.

"Crack!"

The ground beneath his feet cracked, his purple robe flapped in the wind, and the surrounding space trembled as if countless waves of energy were surging towards Du Shaofu, eventually converging around his palm, causing the surrounding space to ripple like boiling water.

"Surging Waves Palm!"

Du Shaofu struck out with his palm, mystic energy surging forth. In the silent mountain forest, a sound like a muffled thunderclap suddenly echoed, followed by visible gusts of wind radiating from the palm.

Finally, the palm struck a tree trunk as thick as two bowls, and wave after wave of force, like surging waves, continuously battered the tree trunk!

"Boom!"

The sturdy tree trunk shook violently and then snapped with a resounding crack. The sound of the explosion echoed through the silent forest, leaves scattered and obscured the view, and birds and beasts were startled, taking flight and fleeing into the distance.

When everything finally calmed down, the surroundings were in disarray.

Looking at the broken tree, a hint of surprise appeared in Du Shaofu's clear eyes, but his expression soon changed, and he murmured to himself, "The Surging Waves Palm is indeed much stronger than the Vibrating Fist. However, these two martial techniques still seem to have many flaws and could be refined further."

In just three days, Du Shaofu successfully cultivated the innate martial techniques, the Vibrating Fist and the Surging Waves Palm.

Compared to the mysterious technique he had spent ten years to comprehend from the stone stele, cultivating these two innate-level martial techniques seemed incredibly easy.

Whether it was the Vibrating Fist or the Surging Waves Palm, Du Shaofu felt that as long as he compared them to the mysterious technique he had comprehended, and then slightly understood them, he could successfully cultivate them after just a few attempts.

Thus, Du Shaofu mastered the Vibrating Fist in one night and then spent two more days and a night to master the Surging Waves Palm.

"The mystic energy in the Vibrating Fist flows through three turns, passing through the 'Qi She' to the 'Yun Men,' then through the 'Kong Zui,' and finally to the 'Shao Fu.' If it could also pass through the 'Tai Yuan' and 'Shao Shang,' it would make the mystic energy more robust and the power stronger. Some acupoints are not very useful, and reducing them would make the Vibrating Fist faster and more agile, reducing many flaws."

Du Shaofu murmured to himself, "The same goes for the Surging Waves Palm. If the mystic energy could gather more at the 'Tian Men' and 'Tian Chi,' it would not be overly rigid and lacking in continuity. Then it would truly have the momentum of surging waves, and its power would be even greater. There are still many flaws and shortcomings in other areas."

Du Shaofu fell into a semi-contemplative state. Both the Vibrating Fist and the Surging Waves Palm were not weak, especially the Surging Waves Palm, which was significantly stronger than the Vibrating Fist.

Although he had successfully cultivated the Vibrating Fist and the Surging Waves Palm, Du Shaofu discovered that both techniques had many flaws and vulnerabilities, and there were quite a few of them.

"Perhaps, I can refine these flaws in the martial techniques."

Suddenly, Du Shaofu looked up, his clear eyes shining brightly, and he fell into deep thought again.

A person without any cultivation realm had mastered two innate martial techniques in just three days and now planned to refine them. If a Pulse Stage martial artist were present, they would likely wish to find a crack in the ground to hide in, as this was simply too demoralizing.

Moreover, no one would believe such a claim. Mastering two innate martial techniques in three days, and by someone without any cultivation realm, was almost impossible unless one had seen a ghost. A normal person could never achieve this.

Several days passed slowly. In the early morning, a gentle breeze blew, the weather was clear, and the sky was a beautiful blue.

"Vibrating Fist!"

In the early morning, in the forest behind the mountain, Du Shaofu quickly formed a series of hand seals, mystic energy flowing through his acupoints and converging in his palm. He clenched his fist, and an astonishing aura erupted, his eyes flashing with light. He struck a rock in front of him with a single punch.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!!!"

Low, muffled sounds echoed one after another, a total of thirteen times. Thirteen layers of astonishing energy waves, each layer overlapping the previous, the momentum almost doubling, becoming increasingly formidable. By the thirteenth layer, the momentum was terrifying, like a shockwave, and it struck the rock with great force.

"Bang!"

With a single punch, the rock, as large as two human bodies, shattered into countless small pieces.

The Vibrating Fist, with its nine layers of waves, each layer more difficult to achieve than the last.

If a powerful member of the Du family were present, they would likely be speechless and find it hard to believe. Just now, Du Shaofu had unleashed thirteen layers of waves with the Vibrating Fist, four more than the original nine layers. The difficulty and power of this feat were evident.

"The refined Vibrating Fist is indeed much stronger than the original."

Seeing the results of his refined Vibrating Fist, Du Shaofu's face lit up with joy, as if he had completed a significant project.

It took Du Shaofu four full days to refine the Vibrating Fist, finally achieving satisfactory results.

In the process of refining the Vibrating Fist, Du Shaofu realized that refining martial techniques was much more difficult than cultivating them. He knew that if it weren't for the insights he gained from the mysterious technique he had comprehended from the ancient stone stele, he would not have been able to refine the Vibrating Fist.

"It took four days to refine the Vibrating Fist. I should go back and see if Father has returned. I'll refine the Surging Waves Palm in a few days."

Du Shaofu did not plan to continue refining the Surging Waves Palm immediately. He had not returned home for several days and had only picked some wild fruits nearby to eat.

"Hey, this flute music has been playing for several days now."

Suddenly, Du Shaofu looked up. From the depths of the distant mountains, a melodious flute tune drifted over, clear and graceful, sometimes gentle and lingering. He had occasionally heard this flute music while comprehending and refining martial techniques, but he did not know where it came from.

Another peculiar thing was that at night, the roars of beasts from the distant Savage Beast Mountains grew more frequent.

Du Shaofu did not pay much attention to the flute music and the beast roars. After tidying up, he descended the mountain.

"Hey, you, come here."

On the lush path down the mountain, Du Shaofu heard a somewhat harsh voice. Soon, an elderly man, about fifty years old, appeared in front of him.
