Chapter 8: Octadic Smash
Chapter 8: Octadic Smash
Now that you have become my disciple, I should teach you something right away, said Yao Chen, and Xiao Yan was slightly taken aback upon hearing that.
Is it alchemy?
Youre thinking too much, kid, Yao Chen shook her head slightly, To be an alchemist, it would require the support of Dou Qi, and with your current level of Dou Qi, you probably cant even light up the pill furnace.
After saying that, Yao Chen floated in front of Xiao Yan and lightly tapped his forehead with her slender finger.
Ill teach you a martial skill now. This martial skill doesnt require too much support from Dou Qi and is completely suitable for your current situation.
In an instant, Xiao Yan felt something rush into his mind, and his pupil suddenly dilated.
A high-level Earth-grade martial skill: Octadic Smash!
It should be noted that the highest level of martial skill in the current Xiao clan is only a high-level Earth-grade martial skill!
Moreover, according to the description of the martial skill, if it is perfected, its power is comparable to a low-level Heaven-grade martial skill!
Thank you, Senior Yao! Xiao Yan said gratefully.
Get up, get up, theres no need for all those formalities, Yao Chen raised her hand impatiently, and her eyes showed a hint of sadness, Formalities are just formalities after all
Xiao Yan looked at the sad looking Yao Chen and furrowed his brows tightly.
This teacher of his seems to have a past that she doesnt want to talk about
Then, Xiao Yan focused his attention on the Octadic Smash martial skill again and murmured slowly.
Eight layers of Dou Qi, eight layers of accumulation
At this point, Yao Chen also snapped out of her melancholy moment and reminded Xiao Yan.
By the way, although this martial skill doesnt require too much support from Dou Qi, it has extremely harsh requirements for the body, so dont try to rush to learn it, if you arent careful, it can break your bod-
Bang!!!
Yao Chens words were cut off abruptly as she stared dumbfoundedly at Xiao Yan, who had smashed a two-meter-long giant stone boulder into pieces, and she was stunned for a long time.
What the hell is this?
Its not even a minute yet, and this kid is already using it?
Unnoticed by Xiao Yan, Yao Chens face was full of shock while looking at the remnant of the giant boulders.
Just as Senior Yao said! The power of this fighting skill is terrifying!
Before he got this fighting skill, Xiao Yan had to work hard to smash giant stones just like this one by one, but now he can easily shatter one in just a single blow!
Xiao Yan then turned to Yao Chen and thanked her again with clasped hands.
Your disciple Xiao Yan, sincerely thanks Senior Yao for th-
Stop, stop, stop!!!
Yao Chen interrupted Xiao Yans second expression of gratitude, floating around him and occasionally touching his body with an extremely intense look in her eyes.
You clearly only have the strength of a three-star Dou Zhi (Battle Disciple, 1st Realm), but your physique is comparable to a Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Realm)!
Dou Qi can enhance a cultivators physical strength, this is something that everyone knows, however, although physical strength can also enhance Dou Qi, the effect is minimal.
Therefore, everyone is trying their best to study Dou Qi because the benefits of practicing Dou Qi are much greater than those of physical training.
However, physical training has an absolute advantage over practicing Dou Qi, and that is the foundation of a cultivator.
Using Dou Qi can indeed grant a cultivator a strong and tough physique, but conversely, when their Dou Qi is insufficient or even exhausted, their body will become extremely weak and vulnerable.
But cultivators who also do physical training have no such worries. The basic strength of the body is there, and even without Dou Qi, their strength will not decrease in the slightest.
Before meeting senior Yao, Xiao Yan could make no progress in cultivating the Dou Qi in his body at all and could only focus on training his physique, thats why my body has become as strong as this, It was because this is the last choice left for me if I want to become stronger..
Okay, okay! The more you talk about it, the more guilty I feel!
Yao Chen quickly waved her hand, indicating that Xiao Yan should not continue.
Why did Xiao Yan make no progress in cultivating his Dou Qi? Wasnt it because she had been secretly sucking it off from him?
Although Xiao Yan did not mention anything about her sucking off his Dou Qi, it was evident in his words and actions. Even though the kid did not blame Yao Chen at all for it.
However, this makes it easier for you to restore your strength, Yao Chen said, raising a finger. Physical strength and Dou Qi are actually complementary. Although everyone is practicing Dou Qi, if you can train your physical strength to exceed the limit that Dou Qi can contain, it will be relatively easy for their Dou Qi to catch up.
Senior Yao, forgive this Xiao Yans ignorance, but I dont understand.
Xiao Yan looked puzzled at her words, and Yao Chen patiently explained, In short, I originally expected you to return to the level of a seven-star Dou Shi in a year, but now you can reach it in at most three months. And in half a year, it would be no hassle at all for you to reach Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Realm)!
Yao Chen spoke confidently, and Xiao Yans face also showed excitement hearing his new teachers words.
He just practiced hard for half a year to return to the level of a Dou Zhe!
Just as Xiao Yan was feeling excited, Yao Chen spoke again.
Of course, you have to get these things on the list for me first.
Yao Chen took out paper with some word listed on it from a void, and looking at the items on the list, Xiao Yan frowned and looked at it for a moment before nodding.
Tomorrow, Xiao Yan will immediately go to buy the items on the list.
Well, lets leave it at that today, Yao Chen looked up at the stars in the sky. Its late, and you should go back to rest so that your family wont worry about you.
During the time when Yao Chen was already awake but chose to not show herself to the world, she had deeply understood Xiao Yans family condition through the ring.
This continent has long been corroded by the belief in the law of the jungle.
Everyone, since birth, has believed in this idea.
But the Xiao Clan is different. They do not pursue power and strength as much as they value familial bonds. Although the Xiao Clan may be weak in their strength and influence, their cohesion is so strong that it terrifies even Yao Chen.
And this is all because of the presence of Xiao Yan.
Yao Chen looked down at Xiao Yan, and the ruby-like eyes of the ethereal woman sparkled with shimmering light.
Can this child really change the entire continent?
With this question in mind, Yao Chen returned to the ring on Xiao Yans chest, and Xiao Yan slowly left the mountains and headed towards the Xiao Clan.
Along the way, Xiao Yan seemed to remember something and asked Yao Chen about the Octadic Smash that she had taught him.
Senior Yao, may I pass on the Octadic Smash that you have taught me to other people?
Upon hearing Xiao Yans words, Yao Chen immediately understood his intentions.
Sure, its not that big of a deal.
Thank you very much, Senior Yao!
Can you not be so respectful towards me?
Facing a senior as generous as Senior Yao, how can I not show respect?!
After returning to the Xiao Clan, as Yao Chen had predicted, Xiao Yan found a scroll in his room and wrote down the training essentials and usage conditions of the Octadic Smash without reservation, except for the combat skill level of the Octadic Smash.
Regarding this, Xiao Yan also gave an explanation.
Perhaps for Senior Yao, this level of combat skill is not a rare thing. After writing it down, Xiao Yan put the scroll away and said slowly, But in our Wutan City, a high-level combat skill at the Profound Stage is enough to make people jealous, and even do things that are not beneficial to the Xiao Clan. Therefore, Xiao Yan must try his best to avoid this.
You little brat
Yao Chen felt thoroughly shocked in her heart, and her evaluation of Xiao Yan went up another level.
This kid did his best to not keep secrets from his family members and made adequate preparations to avoid causing harm to the family due to his contributions.
For others, it is already difficult enough for them to teach such a precious thing to someone else, let alone consider whether it will bring disaster to others.
From a normal persons perspective, providing favors is already a great kindness, and other subsequent negative consequences that their favors brought down are none of their concern.
(MaybeI have really found a good disciple this time)
In Yao Chens heart, she thought so.
