"Living most of my life, I end up owing such a big favor when I'm old."
Li Yukun also reacted, sighing out loud.
"Haha! That's MY disciple! MY disciple! Just ask if you're impressed or not!"
Hu Yiqiu said smugly.
"Impressed! Old drunkard, I've never been impressed by anything else about you! But when it comes to taking in disciples, I'm convinced! Wholeheartedly convinced!"
Li Yukun exclaimed.
"Haha! Haha..."
Hu Yiqiu laughed aloud, his laughter echoing throughout Southern Maniac Mountain.
...
By the small river at the waist of Southern Maniac Mountain.
After three days of organizing, Jiang Chen sorted out the things to pay attention to and the direction of cultivation in the Divine Infant Realm, and also took the opportunity to understand the cultivation levels that existed before on the Changlang Continent. Today, he brought Ouyang Ruoxue, Yun Tao, and Jian Wuheng here.
"Junior brother, trying something new today? Great, I was getting dizzy cutting leaves for three days straight!"
Yun Tao said with joy on his face.
"Is it really that exaggerated?"
Jiang Chen glanced at Yun Tao: "Ruo Xue and Senior Brother Jian are training so seriously, and you're slacking from time to time. You say you're dizzy. Let's see if you're still dizzy when you're always crushed in a fight with Senior Brother Jian, rather than having an even chance of winning or losing."
"I... No way, I can't let this guy crush me! I must train seriously."
Upon hearing this, Yun Tao immediately became nervous.
Jian Wuheng smiled, gave a provocative glance at Yun Tao, who immediately glared back.
"Today, I'll teach you a new method, cutting leaves while standing on the water."
Jiang Chen approached the riverbank and spoke softly.
"Standing on the water? Isn't that easy?"
Yun Tao said as he took a branch and walked onto the water surface, with Jian Wuheng and Ouyang Ruoxue following him.
"Standing like this is certainly easy."
Jiang Chen also took a branch and walked onto the water surface, smiling slightly: "What about standing like this?"
As he finished speaking, Jiang Chen lowered himself a bit, submerging his feet.
"Hmm?"
The three were momentarily stunned and gradually lowered themselves a bit.
"Use only spiritual power, don't use any other force, maintain this state, then channel a strand of spiritual power to cut leaves, keeping your body stable, and avoid creating ripples on the water's surface or sinking, and don't let your feet show."
Jiang Chen continued to speak.
The three furrowed their brows slightly and began to attempt it.
Plop!
Splash!
Swish!
Immediately, issues arose! Yun Tao sank, Jian Wuheng splashed water, Ouyang Ruoxue flew into midair.
"This, this, this..."
Yun Tao was startled, adjusting his height back to just submerging his feet, he was slightly tongue-tied.
"It's harder than imagined."
Jian Wuheng lightly furrowed his brow.
Ouyang Ruoxue said nothing and started cutting leaves again.
Plop!
This time, Ouyang Ruoxue sank!
Returning to the height of submergence, Ouyang Ruoxue continued to practice.
"This method can train multitasking, then multiple uses, cutting leaves while maintaining the state."
Jiang Chen glanced at Ouyang Ruoxue and softly explained: "Control spiritual power at just the force needed to maintain this state, then control this power not to change, channel another strand to cut, at which point the spiritual power under your feet must not change at all, as the spiritual power in our body is a whole; there's no concept of an entirely independent strand, and how we adjust the conversion between them becomes the key."
The three nodded and began training earnestly.
Plop!
Swish!
Splash!
The splashes and turbulent water sounds rose repeatedly, and figures soaring into the sky kept appearing.
"When you can maintain and cut the leaves into the same size hundred pieces, try moving and cutting on the water surface at this height."
After practicing for a while, Jiang Chen spoke softly.
Ouyang Ruoxue nodded expressionlessly, Jian Wuheng slightly furrowed his brows, showing a hint of seriousness in his eyes; Yun Tao's face turned green directly, as he was still carrying his heavy sword!
"Okay, let's stop here, let me tell you about the next practice point."
Swish!
Jiang Chen called, leaping and flying towards the back waist of Southern Maniac Mountain.
At the back waist of Southern Maniac Mountain lies a dense forest, at the end of which is a steep cliff, rising sharply, about a kilometer high.
"Here, the training needs to be like this."
Seeing the three arrived, Jiang Chen spoke softly.
Walking to the cliff, Jiang Chen stepped up, and at one meter high, his body turned horizontal, with only the soles touching the cliff, relying solely on the spiritual power at his feet to adhere to the cliff.
"This..."
"Is it possible to train like this?"
Yun Tao and others opened their eyes wide in disbelief, looking at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen smiled slightly, muttering to himself. This was a training method learned from the fiery ninja shadow on Earth, which he couldn't use before either due to insufficient strength or later due to focusing on comprehending the Great Dao, but now it could be used.
"This requires us to gather Chakra... ahem! Spiritual power at the soles to adhere to the cliff."
As Jiang Chen ascended the cliff, he said: "Once you can steadily walk up and down, try walking while cutting leaves. When you can cut out hundred equal pieces like this, find horizontal branches in the forest to practice upside-down walking and cutting!"
After explaining, Jiang Chen sprang back beside Yun Tao and the others.
"Junior Brother, how did you come up with these peculiar training methods?"
Yun Tao's face was full of gloom; this training was too unbearable for him, a man with a cold exterior but warm interior.
"Once everyone can control the spiritual power well in these states, you can use this shape to control the Power of the Great Dao. When the Power of the Great Dao is also controlled, you can control the external spiritual power and the Power of the Great Dao, slowly putting your own power in your hands. Of course, there will be other methods, and I'll let you know when I figure them out!"
Jiang Chen directly ignored Yun Tao's words, gazing at Ouyang Ruoxue and Jian Wuheng:
"We also need combat training, after a period of practice, combat training must be undergone, while combatting, control your spiritual power or the Power of the Great Dao, dividing them to attack or defend. During the combat, I'll tell everyone how to divide and control it!"
Jian Wuheng and the others nodded gently.
Disregarded, Yun Tao wasn't angry, following with a nod, turning to look with a bitter expression at the straight cliff a kilometer high.
Jian Wuheng looked towards Jiang Chen with significant implications.
Once commanding tens of thousands, deciding life and death with a single word!
This Junior Brother Jiang Chen, what has he gone through? What sort of heights has he stood at?
Such leadership skills, with such training experience, what was his previous identity?
Jian Wuheng's eyes flashed with deep thought.
Swish!
Suddenly, a silhouette appeared next to Jiang Chen and the others.
