I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them? - Chapter 383

Chapter 383: Chapter 219: The Way of Concealment and Invisibility
 

Red Cat saw its master appeared somewhat dissatisfied, and immediately shook its body, revealing the intimidating aura of a Great Demon, and let out a low growl, looking thoroughly imposing.

It meant to show that it had not been slacking off, but had always been diligently cultivating.

“Master!”

Xu Yan and Meng Chong approached, respectfully paying their homage.

Li Xuan nodded and said, “You want to go to the Spiritual Realm, don’t you?”

He had noticed that Xu Yan wished to enter the gate to the Spiritual Realm to accumulate his foundational strength, striving for a breakthrough in the Divine Intent Realm earlier.

“Yes, Master!”

Xu Yan respectfully answered.

Li Xuan sipped his tea and remained silent, instead deep in thought.

In the Spiritual Realm, the limits of Martial Arts are not what they are in the Inner Domain, and being a Divine Refinement Celestial does not necessarily mean being the strongest.

Xu Yan had reached Perfection in the Profound Mystery Realm, and both his Sword Dao and Sword Intent had seen massive improvements, particularly his Sudden Wind Sword Intent, a Sword Intent capable of Slaughter the Soul.

To Martial Arts Celestials, it was a form of attack difficult to resist.

Because of this, although Xu Yan only reached Profound Mystery Perfection, killing lesser Celestials presented no issue.

Even when encountering Great Celestials, it wasn’t as if he had no power to fight.

Great Celestials belonged to the stage of fusion with the spirit. Their consciousness was stronger, with some ability to resist the Sudden Wind Sword Intent, but it still affected them, preventing the full extent of their power from being unleashed.

As of now, for Xu Yan’s realm, advancing his Sudden Wind Sword Intent further, to wield a stronger killing power, was temporarily impossible.

Therefore, Xu Yan’s current strength was sufficient to slay lesser Celestials, and even some rubbish Great Celestials, but if he were to face the stronger ones among the Great Celestials, he may not be able to prevail.

Still, if Xu Yan needed to flee, it was not a problem.

However, what if he encountered an ambush?

Li Xuan had thought that after Xu Yan broke through the Divine Intent Realm, he could then enter the Spiritual Realm, thus facing greater dangers.

“Never mind, the path of a Martial Artist is never straightforward. Xu Yan has good talent, luck, and strength. It would benefit him to experience adventures in the Spiritual Realm for quicker growth,

“Just as when he first entered the Inner Domain and his strength improved rapidly.”

Li Xuan realized that Xu Yan had spent quite a lot of time accumulating his foundation in the Inner Domain. Rather than continuing there, it would be better to venture into the Spiritual Realm and quickly build enough foundation for the breakthrough in the Divine Intent Realm.

“The Spiritual Realm is replete with powerful experts. Encountering formidable enemies will naturally mean escape. Relying solely on speed isn’t safe. Knowing how to conceal oneself is key.

“I almost forgot about the cultivation techniques for concealment and evasion, which can avoid detection by powerful beings. With these, one can evade danger when it arises.”

Li Xuan suddenly remembered he had overlooked the techniques for concealment and stealth.

These were indispensable for adventuring in the Martial Arts Realm.

Often they can turn danger into safety, making a narrow escape feasible, and are essential techniques for dealing with strong adversaries and powerful forces.

“In the Spiritual Realm, given your current strength, some danger does exist. Provoking powerful forces is also common, but any strong being ascends by stepping over other strong entities and powerful forces.

“Those are but stepping stones. Yet, when facing powerful forces, one misstep can lead to ruin.”

Li Xuan set down his teacup, his expression becoming grave as he continued.

“Disciple, you should have enough experience navigating the Martial Arts Realm. A paragon does not fight over immediate wins or losses. Retreat when needed, evade when necessary, act according to circumstances, and maintain your advantage.

“I have taught you the Martial Arts Techniques and the art of slaughter, but not yet how to conceal your presence to avoid strong enemies. Today, I shall teach you the techniques of concealment.”

Xu Yan, Meng Chong, and Su Lingxiu were immediately overjoyed upon hearing this.

Li Xuan had not prepared the techniques of stealth and concealment beforehand, and could only improvise them on the spot. At this moment, several lines of an incantation formed in his mind.

“Now listen well, whether it is concealing one’s aura or hiding oneself, all is contained within this Principle. Reflect on it diligently.”

Li Xuan spoke solemnly.

“Yes, Master!”

The group of three, Xu Yan, Meng Chong, and Su Lingxiu, answered respectfully.

“Harmonize with the light, blend with the dust—merge with matter, meld into void; dwell in the Domain of Heaven and Earth, yet remain undetected by Heaven and Earth!”

Li Xuan intoned deeply.

“Harmonize with the light, blend with the dust…”

Xu Yan, deeply moved by these words, muttered them to himself, feeling in these few short lines a depth of profound mystery.

Meng Chong and Su Lingxiu also fell into deep thought.

“Go and contemplate. Once you grasp the basics and can conceal your aura and form, you may then head to the Spiritual Realm.”

Li Xuan waved his hand as he instructed.

“Yes, Master!”

The three students bowed and departed.

Seated on the mountain peak, Xu Yan murmured, “Harmonize with the light, blend with the dust—merge with matter, meld into void; dwell in the Domain of Heaven and Earth, yet remain undetected by Heaven and Earth?”

The more he pondered, the more profound it seemed.

Dwelling in the Domain of Heaven and Earth, and yet remaining undetected by it.

What remarkable techniques of concealment!

Li Xuan exhaled a breath. After passing on the techniques of concealment and stealth to Xu Yan and the others, he opened the Daoist Golden Book and wrote the incantation within, receiving feedback from the book.

The incantation was somewhat mystical, but he wasn’t worried about Xu Yan’s ability to grasp its essence given his genius nature.

Once Xu Yan understood it, Meng Chong and Su Lingxiu could also practice it.

He didn’t expect Xu Yan to master the art of stealth to the extent where he could dwell in the Domain and remain undetectable by the Heaven and Earth Laws.

It would be enough if he could merely conceal his aura and form, avoiding the detection of strong beings.

If one were to reach a state where even the Heaven and Earth Laws could not detect them, such stealth techniques would be too terrifying. With Xu Yan’s current strength, reaching that realm was impossible.
