Before Xu Yan succeeded in cultivation, Li Xuan, deciding to just make-up, made-up without any restraint, making it as mystical as possible.
There was no need to consider whether it could be cultivated.
How could made-up techniques possibly succeed in cultivation?
But Xu Yan, this freak, succeeded in cultivating the made-up technique, and even triggered the cheat system. Li Xuan's strength directly reached a hundred times than those in the same realm.
The next set of cultivation techniques couldn't be made-up randomly anymore.
After all, it was related to whether he could succeed in cultivation and whether he could continue to receive responses from the cheat system to enhance himself.
With mental pressure, there were more considerations.
When making-up, one had to consider whether the theory was reliable, and whether there were any loopholes.
If it wasn't mystical enough, there was the worry about not having strong enough power.
If it was too mystical, there was the fear that Xu Yan wouldn't comprehend it and continue to cultivate.
In short, Li Xuan started making the next realm, but when it came to cultivating it, he realized he had thought too simply.
With pressure in his heart, he had to be cautious and indecisive!
"Damn it! I'll just make it up and let the disciple figure it out, let him comprehend it himself."
"No, what if he can't comprehend it? Wouldn't it be my loss?"
"What's going on with this damn cheat system?"
Li Xuan looked troubled.
The cheat system had been triggered, but after imparting cultivation, it disappeared as if it didn't exist.
"Because Xu Yan successfully cultivated the technique I made up, the cheat system was triggered. So, if I want it to respond, I still have to rely on Xu Yan. This brat is too much of a freak, his comprehension is off the charts."
"So, when I make the techniques, I have to connect the realms properly, leaving the specific cultivation methods for Xu Yan to comprehend himself."
"I only need to come up with a set of theories and techniques that sound mystical."
Li Xuan took a deep breath and straightened out the direction of making the techniques. The next step was how to construct this illusory theory.
He must come up with techniques that sound mystical.
After that, everything would be left to Xu Yan to comprehend himself.
Since he could figure out how to refine skin, bones, and organs by himself, why couldn't he continue to cultivate in the future?
"For the Bone Refinement technique I made, it was—'Observe true intent with a clear mind, let Qi and blood forge the body like a dragon.' So, for the Qi and Blood Realm, I'll also make a couple of techniques for Xu Yan to comprehend, which can speed up his cultivation speed."
Li Xuan recalled that Xu Yan had found the method to temper the Golden Bones from the two techniques he had made. So, the techniques were crucial. They needed to be mystical but not too vague.
He must leave it to Xu Yan to comprehend himself.
The next realm after the Qi and Blood Realm would be the Innate Realm, but there was no rush to make it yet. First, the Qi and Blood Realm techniques needed to be made.
Although there were no techniques, cultivation path had already been determined. One could still cultivate to the peak of the Qi and Blood Realm.
However, if techniques were made, and Xu Yan comprehended something from them, cultivation speed would greatly increase, and his strength would also be stronger.
As Xu Yan's strength increased, his master's strength naturally increased too.
Currently, he was at the peak of the Qi and Blood Realm, having a hundred times the strength of those in the same realm. Xu Yan provided the basis for this strength.
If Xu Yan's strength became stronger when he reached the peak of the Realm, Li Xuan's strength would naturally become stronger too.
So, techniques must be made.
Skin Refinement, Bone Refinement, Organ Refinement, and the techniques for Entry into Martial Arts cultivation, Li Xuan had already mastered them when the cheat system was revealed.
As of now, he has mastered Entry-level Martial Arts.
It was acquired from Xu Yan's cultivation and comprehension. With this real and practicable foundation, Li Xuan had an idea for making up the Qi and Blood Realm techniques and let Xu Yan comprehend on his own.
The objective behind making-up the Qi and Blood Realm techniques was to allow Xu Yan to comprehend more powerful and efficient methods of cultivating the Qi and Blood Realm. In addition, it was to enhance the Qi and Blood Realm strength.
"The essence of the Qi and Blood Realm lies in strengthening Qi and blood, strengthening the physical body. Therefore, the fundamental aspect of cultivation is to improve the quality and quantity of Qi and blood, and to increase the upper limit of the physical body."
"Since it is about cultivating Qi and blood, using this as a technique should work, right?"
After pondering for a while, Li Xuan came up with four lines of technique.
"Four lines are enough. That's it. Let the silly disciple figure it out. Even if he can't comprehend anything, it won't delay his cultivation."
"Reaching the peak of the Qi and Blood Realm is just a matter of time. What's important is that the silly disciple can continue his crazy progress and cultivate the made-up Innate Realm."
Li Xuan exhaled deeply, walked out of the room with his hands behind his back, and with a stern demeanor.
Xu Yan was consolidating his realm.
"Come over here, I'll pass on to you the Qi and Blood Realm techniques," Li Xuan beckoned.
"Yes, Master!" Xu Yan responded excitedly and ran over.
The Qi and Blood Realm techniques!
"Listen carefully, the Qi and Blood Realm techniques consist of four lines. If you can comprehend their true meaning, your cultivation will naturally progress rapidly. It won't take long to reach the peak of the Qi and Blood Realm," Li Xuan said in a slightly serious tone.
"Yes, Master, disciple will definitely comprehend the techniques and will not disappoint you!" Xu Yan assured, patting his chest.
"I'm pleased to hear your confidence. Just do your best. If you can't comprehend the true meaning of the techniques, it won't hinder your cultivation," Li Xuan said, his tone easing.
He couldn't pressure his disciple too much. If the mental strain became too much, Xu Yan might not be able to comprehend the techniques.
"I understand, Master!" Xu Yan nodded.
"Good!" Li Xuan nodded and said slowly, "Listen carefully. The four lines of techniques for the Qi and Blood Realm are: 'A thousand streams merge into a mighty river, rushing into the ocean for thousands of miles; billowing waves stir up thousands of layers of waves, and Qi and blood can shake the mountains.'"
When Xu Yan heard the last line of the technique, he couldn't help but murmur to himself, "Qi and blood can shake the mountains?"
He felt the grandeur and power of this line.
Li Xuan cleared his throat and said, "Disciple, remember, the methods I teach you focus on comprehension and intent, not on form or superficiality."
It was a cliché, but Li Xuan continued to remind Xu Yan.
"Yes, Master, disciple understands!" Xu Yan respectfully replied.
At this moment, those four lines of technique ran through his mind.
"Alright, go and consolidate your cultivation," Li Xuan nodded.
Feeling relieved, he finally passed on the techniques to Xu Yan. Whether Xu Yan could comprehend them or not would depend on him.
If he couldn't comprehend them, it couldn't be blamed on his master.
Next, he needed to spend some time on the Innate Realm, how to make it mystical yet theoretically connected to the Qi and Blood Realm, so as not to encounter a dead end or have nowhere to start.
"Yes, Master!" After respectfully bowing, Xu Yan returned to his place of cultivation.
He began to contemplate the four lines of technique, sighing inwardly, "Indeed, these techniques passed down by Master sound like poetry, profound and extraordinary, containing endless martial arts wisdom."
"I must comprehend them and not disappoint Master!"
