Chapter 1696: A Brand New Body Cultivation Technique
Chapter 1696: A Brand New Body Cultivation Technique
Ye Xuan came back to his senses and found that the delicate and adorable Little Cloud had already appeared beside him."Little Cloud, you mentioned some time ago that there were issues with Daddy’s Body Cultivation Technique. Do you remember where the problems were?" Ye Xuan asked eagerly.
Little Cloud scratched her head in confusion: "What is Body Cultivation Technique?"
Ye Xuan explained: "It’s the set of Fist Techniques Daddy practices when he’s training in martial arts."
"Oh, Daddy means that one! That set of Fist Techniques has lots of problems!" Little Cloud said energetically, "But right now, Little Cloud can’t quite pinpoint them."
"No worries, no rush. Daddy will demonstrate it for you once, and then you can help Daddy find the problems, okay?" Ye Xuan patiently said.
"Sure!" Little Cloud was very willing; she loves watching Daddy practice martial arts.
Ye Xuan smiled with relief, then without hesitation, went to the small courtyard and started practicing the well-known Body Cultivation Technique.
Little Cloud pointed out Chi Lian, who had experienced unprecedented speed in growth, perhaps it was a coincidence, but what if it was due to strength?
If Little Cloud truly has this remarkable talent to elevate Ye Xuan’s Body Cultivation Technique, what a sight that would be?
How rapidly would Ye Xuan’s skills then progress?
At this moment, Ye Xuan was even somewhat regretting not taking Little Cloud’s words seriously at first; trying it wouldn’t have cost anything.
He, as a father, really lacked patience!
About half an hour later, Ye Xuan finished a set of Body Cultivation Techniques.
Before he could speak,
Little Cloud, arms crossed, stood not far away, shaking her head with a masterly expression: "No, Daddy, your Fist Techniques are really not good!"
Listening to Little Cloud’s harsh critique, in the past, Ye Xuan might have just smiled indulgently, teased Little Cloud a bit, and let it pass.
But today, upon hearing this, Ye Xuan was ecstatic!
"Not good?" Ye Xuan looked at Little Cloud expectantly and said, "Quickly tell Daddy, which parts of this Fist Technique are not good?"
"Hmm..."
Little Cloud pondered with her chin, then said: "My previous daddy once said, everything in the world, too rigid can break, too soft may weaken, Daddy, your Fist Technique just now was evidently too fierce!"
Ye Xuan froze.
He recalled Little Cloud saying this before, but he had refuted it, believing all roads lead to Rome, and when fierceness is perfected, it can dominate.
Of course, Ye Xuan didn’t immediately waver in his views, but he was still eager to try.
"How should it be corrected?" Ye Xuan asked.
"Daddy needs to perform another set of Fist Techniques," Little Cloud laughed, "But you have to move slower, otherwise Little Cloud can’t correct it!"
"Okay, watch closely."
Ye Xuan nodded, then promptly started practicing Body Cultivation Technique again, combining punches and kicks.
Just as he started the first movement.
"Stop!"
Little Cloud suddenly shouted.
Ye Xuan hurriedly halted, maintaining his posture.
Little Cloud stepped forward, examined Ye Xuan carefully, then shook her head and said, "Oh, Daddy, your movements are too stiff, relax a bit!"
Ye Xuan: "Relax? How to relax?"
"Try bending your arms down some, loosen your waist, and let your legs spread slightly." Little Cloud explained in detail.
Ye Xuan adhered to her instructions.
Instantly, from others’ perspective, he seemed significantly more relaxed, losing the previous sense of tenseness, naturally flowing, as if it wasn’t martial practice but a very normal and graceful action.
Beside him, Chi Lian was already astonished!
Chi Lian had seen Ye Xuan practicing martial arts often, just as Ye Xuan had often seen her practicing, but now she clearly felt that his stance, despite being slightly altered, seemed transformed as if flipping heaven and earth.
It felt as if Ye Xuan’s original Fist Techniques were like a pile of rotten mud, completely insignificant!
Without comparison, there’s no hurt.
At this moment, Ye Xuan was equally astounded in his heart.
He couldn’t see the change himself, but he could feel it!
With just a minor adjustment in posture, he realized the Body Cultivation Technique taught by Chen Xuanba had countless flaws!
"Continue!"
Ye Xuan calmly said with a serious expression.
He proceeded to the next move.
Little Cloud continued to correct.
Keep going.
And continue...
The Body Cultivation Technique comprised eighty-one movements, and each movement Ye Xuan made was meticulously corrected by Little Cloud, entirely revised.
Seemingly minor changes, but actually big revisions!
After completing the full set of Fist Techniques, Ye Xuan was drenched in sweat!
Little Cloud pursed her lips and said, "Daddy, that’s all Little Cloud knows, if you want more corrections, Little Cloud can’t help you anymore!"
"Enough,"
Ye Xuan nodded and closed his eyes in contemplation.
Little Cloud observed quietly, rare for her, then ran over near Chi Lian, casually watching Ye Xuan from afar.
Ye Xuan stood still in the courtyard, eyes closed, unmoving like a spear.
The white dawn in the sky gradually turned red under the sun’s glow.
Ye Xuan stood motionless like a sculpture, as half an hour passed.
During this half-hour, he carefully revisited Little Cloud’s changes to the Body Cultivation Technique, over and over, until a brand new Body Cultivation Technique had replayed in his mind thousands of times!
Suddenly, Ye Xuan opened his eyes!
At that moment, it seemed as if the colors of the world changed!
In his dark eyes, two worlds seemed to appear.
In one world, it was the posture of Ye Xuan’s previous training.
In another world, it was the scene of practicing a new set of Body Cultivation Technique!
The two worlds alternated wildly, eventually, the old Body Cultivation Technique was entirely faded, until completely replaced by the new one.
At this moment,
Ye Xuan suddenly moved.
Motionless like a mountain, moving swiftly like thunder!
He performed the new Body Cultivation Technique.
Every move, every variation, every punch, every kick, every detail was precisely as Little Cloud had corrected earlier, meticulous, naturally agile, as if he’d practiced this new Body Cultivation Technique countless times!
Previously, Ye Xuan’s practice felt intense and fierce, like a tiger in the mountains and a dragon in the water!
But now, the impression he gave Chi Lian was faint and subtle.
At times, like a fierce tiger.
At times, like a sick cat.
Sometimes fierce, sometimes soft!
Sometimes like a drunken man.
Sometimes vibrant and alert!
Ever-changing, impossible to grasp!
Chi Lian was utterly shocked.
She could hardly believe that such minor adjustments to a set of Fist Techniques could make such a tremendous impact.
She felt this way, and now Ye Xuan felt the same!
Who indeed is Little Cloud?
Ye Xuan’s original set of Body Cultivation Techniques needed roughly an hour to complete.
But this time, with the same sequence, he only took about ten minutes!
