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

Light Swan Movement Technique i

Translator: 549690339

After thinking of the movement technique mantra, Li Xuan came to The Eight Diagrams and spoke, “Disciple, you’ve been training diligently these days. Your speed has improved, and your steps are much lighter.”

“But you are still far from truly comprehending the movement technique.”

“By now you should have made some progress in understanding the art of movement. It’s time to teach you the movement mantra.”

“Listen and remember.”

Xu Yan stopped and responded with excitement, “Yes, Master!”

“The essence of movement, lies in being light, lies in being fast. Being light means you’re silent and unnoticed, while being fast is like a flash of lightning…”

Li Xuan spoke with the wisdom of a sage.

Xu Yan listened thoughtfully and vaguely understood how he should comprehend the movement technique.

“As light as a goose feather or a falling leaf, as swift as a thunderbolt with no trace of physical form!”

Li Xuan meticulously recited the newly developed mantra word by word.

“Disciple, ponder on this mantra!”

After finishing, he turned around, hands behind his back, and left.

“Yes, Master!”

Xu Yan bowed.

Having given Xu Yan the two-line mantra, whether or not he could comprehend the movement technique now depended on Xu Yan himself.

However, Li Xuan believed that his disciple wouldn’t let him down.

Those two lines of the mantra were all Xu Yan could think about. The more he pondered on them, the more profound he found them.

Looking up and seeing his master had left, he prepared to continue practicing, when he suddenly paused.

“Master said the essence of movement is in being light and fast…

“This is it? Master’s steps are so leisurely, so relaxed…”

Xu Yan saw his master leave, hands behind his back, walking with a leisurely pace, appearing relaxed and comfortable—an unspoken kind of ease.

“Master’s leisurely steps are him unconsciously displaying his movement technique?

“No! Master’s level is so high, he has already returned to his true self. Although he seems to walk slowly, he actually embodies the highest principle of movement.

“The saying is ‘lead byword and example.’ After Master taught me the mantra, he demonstrated it with his calm steps.

“Yes! It must be that way. 1 must clearly understand the deep meaning contained within Master’s steps!”

After Xu Yan’s own interpretation, his spirit was immediately invigorated.

He watched Master’s steps without blinking. His steps carried a charm that was hard to describe—leisurely, light, and even more carefree!

The more he watched, the more he grasped the hidden principles of movement in Master’s steps.

“As light as a goose feather or a falling leaf, as swift as a thunderbolt with no trace of physical form… 1 am starting to understand.”

As Xu Yan watched his master’s steps, gradually, a ray of comprehension seemed to emerge in his mind. The leisurely, swift, carefree steps merged with the mantra.

He felt like he had vaguely understood something.

At this moment, Li Xuan’s figure had disappeared from Xu Yan’s sight.

At this moment, Li Xuan was in high spirits. After creating and passing on another two-line mantra to his disciple, he anticipated the feedback that he would soon receive regarding the movement technique.

Therefore, his steps were comfortable and unhindered, full of joy. He felt so buoyant that he even wanted to hum a few songs.

Little did he know that his carefree walk was taken seriously by Xu Yan, who interpreted it in his own way and sought to understand the profound meaning in his steps.

After Xu Yan interpreted Master’s steps to contain profound meaning, during his practice with the movement mantra, his head was filled with images of those carefree, leisurely steps.

In combination with the mantra, his understanding of it grew steadily.

It seemed as though puncturing through a layer of paper would reveal the powerful movement technique.

In the diagram of The Eight Diagrams, Xu Yan’s steps between movements became lighter, his landings soundless, his turns smoother, and his leaps carried a hint of being weightless.

His figure floated around The Eight Diagrams, his steps becoming lighter, and his speed continuously increasing.

“I’m faster!

“I feel as though I’m on the cusp of comprehending the movement technique.”

Xu Yan’s gaze was firm.

At one moment, the only thing left in his mind was the ease and unrestrained steps of his master – gradually becoming more mysterious and clearer.

He felt a kind of enlightenment rising up in his heart.

“As light as a goose feather falling leaf, as swift as thunder without a shadow… I begin to understand, floating silence like a goose feather, thunder lasting only a moment… This could be what we call the Light Goose Movement Technique.

“Although I have not yet grasped its true meaning, 1 have at least made a start in the movement technique.

“Silent and traceless as a floating goose feather—the Light Goose Movement Technique!”

At a certain moment, Xu Yan felt an infinite sense of enlightenment flowing into his heart. In that instant, his figure began to flutter.

In a blink of an eye, as if shifting, he arrived at another location.

He landed without a sound, not even a speck of dust was raised.

His figure constantly fluttered within The Eight Diagrams, getting faster and lighter, changing positions in an instant.

Moreover, such swift speed didn’t produce any wind noise at all.

In between flutters, light as a goose feather, silent and traceless.

“I finally perfected the Light Goose Movement Technique!” Xu Yan was extremely excited.

He roared, leaped into the air, and in an instant, he was a hundred feet away, launching a Descending Dragon Palm. A red dragon roared out, creating a crater on the ground.

Xu Yan’s figure flitted about, striking with the Descending Dragon Palm—moving left and right, up and down, rolling around and changing positions in an instant. Consequently, the Descending Dragon Palm instantly struck from different directions.

With a grasp of the movement technique, Xu Yan’s fighting power soared instantly.

“Next, 1 will strive to practice hard and level up to the minor achievement of the Qi and Blood Realm as soon as possible!” Xu Yan was ecstatic.

“Your disciple has successfully cultivated the movement technique you compiled and named it the Light Goose Movement Technique. You have now directly perfected the technique, increasing your power tenfold.”

On the third day of passing the mantra to Xu Yan.

Li Xuan was sitting in a chair, playing with Jade Ruyi.

Suddenly, a golden light appeared.

In his mind, the principles of the Light Goose Movement Technique appeared all of a sudden, and he instantly perfected it.

Li Xuan immediately stood up, his face showing excitement.

“As expected, having a mantra and not having it makes a big difference.

“My disciple’s talent is truly extraordinary. As long as he has the mantra, he can sense it.

“It’s worth my trouble to rack my brains to compile the mantra.

“It seems that the cultivation method of the Innate Realm can be passed on to my disciple in advance, so he can familiarize himself with it and strive to break through the Innate Realm as soon as possible.”

With a step, light as a goose feather, silent and traceless, he had instantly left the small village.

His figure fluttered around at a very high speed, yet not a sound of wind was created, quietly and silently.

Li Xuan, playing with Jade Ruyi in his hand, had already arrived at Xu Yan’s training place.

He saw his disciple, Xu Yan, constantly launching the Descending Dragon Palm while executing his movement technique, practicing his defense strategy.

“It’s time for me to show some of my skills again!”

A smile appeared on Li Xuan’s face.

With a single move, he silently arrived behind Xu Yan.

With the mastery of Qi and Blood Realm, and a strength a hundred times that of the same level, and the perfection of the Light Goose Movement Technique, ten times that of the same level, how could Xu Yan detect his arrival?

At this moment, Xu Yan, who was excitedly practicing, was completely unaware of someone behind him, following his every move.

Li Xuan’s hands were behind his back, no matter how Xu Yan rolled, he always kept behind Xu Yan, silently, without Xu Yan noticing at all.

“My dear disciple, in a while, you will experience the strength of your master!”

A happy smile appeared on his face.
