I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them? - Chapter 513

Chapter 513: Chapter 281 Primordial Spirit Gathers, Divine Skills Arise, Law of Heaven and Earth
 

Xu Yan combed through his insights while wholeheartedly pondering the techniques of Martial Arts Divine Skill. As his understanding deepened, the principles of Martial Arts Divine Skill became increasingly clear.

“I’ve finally understood. When Master depicted the patterns of the Heaven and Earth Laws, letting me meditate upon them, he actually wanted me to know that the heavens and earth follow principles, and martial artists have their principles as well, with Divine Skills being the martial artist’s principles.

“It’s a pity that I’ve been so dull; I’ve only now grasped the profound meaning behind Master’s teachings.”

Xu Yan lamented inwardly. If he had realized the profound meaning of his master’s teachings earlier, wouldn’t he have understood the techniques of Martial Arts Divine Skill by now?

“The transmission of Master’s teachings is meant to encourage me to carve my own path in martial arts, not simply to retread his steps. That’s why, at crucial points in martial arts, Master wouldn’t spell it out for me but rather let me comprehend it on my own.

“I should have realized sooner that there surely was profound meaning in Master’s ways.”

The more Xu Yan thought about it, the more ashamed he felt.

Li Xuan, engrossed in the patterns of Heaven and Earth Laws within the Book of Taicang, felt a sudden surge of realization and glanced over at Xu Yan, his eyebrows lifting slightly.

“Has Xu Yan had an epiphany?”

Gradually entering a state of being at one with the surroundings, free from distractions, and unaffected by the external world,

Xu Yan’s mind was fully focused on his own body, entering a state similar to an epiphany—a clear sign he was gaining insights.

“Divine Skill is near at hand!”

Li Xuan was overjoyed.

“Upon entering the Divine Skill Realm, Divine Skills naturally emerge. If I enter the Divine Skill Realm, what kind of Divine Skills will be born? The feedback from Xu Yan entering the Divine Skill Realm will also be significant, and the Divine Skills I hold will surely not be few.

“The four schools of martial arts, Qimen Martial Art in particular, are quite special; might they also possess Divine Skills? Even if they don’t give birth to Divine Skills, there will surely be techniques not inferior to Divine Skills emerging.

“Divine Skills of Physical Body Martial Arts, Alchemical Medical Martial Arts Divine Skills…”

The more Li Xuan pondered, the more excited he became.

“Divine Skills born from within are akin to Innate Divine Skills; they grow stronger as one’s realm and strength increase, and they have no upper limit.

“Moreover, one can also develop Acquired Divine Skills—this is the method of Martial Arts Divine Skill.”

This thought filled Li Xuan with excitement.

“It’s time to compile some Martial Arts Divine Skills. After all, later martial artists, even if they break through into the Divine Skill Realm, might not be born with strong Divine Skills. They might have only one Divine Skill.

“In that case, they will need to cultivate other Martial Arts Divine Skills. Since the Divine Skill Realm is already established, how can there be no methods for Divine Skills?”

With this in mind, Li Xuan started to ponder how to compile Martial Arts Divine Skills.

“There are strong and weak Divine Skills, distinctions between minor and Great Divine Power. Divine Skills born from within are not necessarily stronger than those developed later.

“Take martial artists like Shi’er and Zhou Ying, for example; the Divine Skills they are born with may only be minor Divine Skills.

“If one’s inherent Divine Skills are not strong, then they can cultivate stronger Divine Skills to compensate. The strength of the Great Wilderness Martial Arts lies in this.”

Li Xuan’s thoughts flowed, and the door to Martial Arts Divine Skill emerged in his mind.

Develop Martial Arts Divine Skills!

To further perfect them, in addition to the Divine Skills naturally born within one’s self, one can cultivate Acquired Divine Skills. And developed Divine Skills can certainly be powerful too.

“As a Martial Ancestor, I’ve really broken my back for the sake of martial arts. I’ll spend some time compiling a Divine Skill Martial Code.”

Li Xuan sighed inwardly.

The Divine Skill Martial Code will encompass both minor and Great Divine Power, and various methods of Divine Skills.

“Looks like I’m going to be busy again.”

Li Xuan sighed in his heart, knowing it would take time and mental energy to compile Divine Skills.

Of course, there was no urgency now; after all, Li Xuan didn’t yet know the intricacies of Divine Skills. He needed to wait until after breaking through the Divine Realm and fully understanding the wonders of Divine Skills before he could use that as a foundation to compile various Divine Skills.

As for whether the compiled Divine Skills could be cultivated, Li Xuan was not worried. Even if his four disciples did not practice or meditate upon them, as long as the skills were passed on, there would surely be successors who could comprehend them.

In this world, there may not be a second genius like Xu Yan, but there would not be a shortage of outstanding talents capable of comprehending Divine Skills.

What’s more, with the help of the Daoist Golden Book, the Divine Skills he compiled would be relatively perfected, and the difficulty in comprehension could be reduced. Even if Great Divine Powers were hard to comprehend, minor Divine Skills would surely be manageable.

Although Xu Yan had understood what Divine Skills were, organizing the principles of the Divine Skill Realm of martial arts still required a bit of time to fully comprehend.

However, it would only be a matter of two or three days.

Li Xuan continued to study the eighth page of the Book of Taicang’s Heaven and Earth Laws, waiting for Xu Yan to completely comprehend the principles of the Martial Arts Divine Skill Realm.

On the third day that Xu Yan was sorting out the techniques of the Martial Arts Divine Skill Realm, a message arrived. The Luo State faction of the Wanshi Alliance had blown its cover and was embroiled in a major battle with the Spirit Sect families.

Moreover, they had called upon Loose Cultivators to join forces and fight against the Spirit Sect families, even gaining the upper hand.

“Is the Spirit Sect and the families of Luo State really that weak?”

Fang Hao wore a look of puzzled surprise.

Yu Gao and the others were all excited, itching to join the fray. If the Luo State faction succeeded, securing a foothold in Luo State, it would be time for the Yuzhou faction to rise.

Li Xuan, after hearing this, shook his head and said, “The Luo State faction won’t make it.”

“Master, why not?”

Fang Hao asked curiously.

“The heritage of the Spirit Sect and the families is not so easily shaken. Moreover, since the Wanshi Alliance was forced into the open, this indicates that the Spirit Sect has already gotten a handle on them.

“The only uncertainty is the strength of these Loose Cultivators, which may have exceeded expectations.

“But that’s all there is to it. Once they regroup, they will surely deal a heavy blow to the Luo State faction, and an even stronger Spirit Sect has yet to take action.”

With this, Li Xuan did not hold out hope for the Luo State faction, continuing, “Aside from Loose Cultivators who have deep grudges with the Spirit Sect and its families, the rest will wait and see, and some may even strike at the Wanshi Alliance in an attempt to curry favor with the Spirit Sect.”
