Top-tier Unruly Master

The elder watched Ding Fan's dazed expression with increasing urgency in his heart, looking at him, he immediately asked:

"Kid, did you get a good look at the white-clothed figure?"

Seeing Ding Fan looking thoughtful yet downcast, the elder couldn't help but think his previous question was indeed a bit premature.

He remembered the first time he entered the stele, when he hadn't learned anything, not even clearly seeing the appearance of the white-clothed man, and his mind couldn't hold on within the hour.

How could this kid possibly be more impressive than him?

But how does one explain this kid being inside for a whole day?

For a moment, the elder seemed to feel his brain wasn't working properly, urgently looking at Ding Fan wanting to know his answer.

At that moment, Ding Fan looked at the elder and then frowned slightly, saying:

"I saw, but I only clearly saw one move."

Upon hearing Ding Fan's words, the elder was completely stunned. He stared at Ding Fan with a face full of shock, the more he looked, the more this guy seemed like a monster!

Actually saw one move clearly?

You should know, back then, it took him three months to grasp a shadow of a move.

The young man in front of him actually clearly saw one move on his first try, this is a little too unbelievable!

"Good kid! Show me the move!"

The elder looked at Ding Fan and directly asked, truly finding it hard to believe his own ears, seeing clearly just on the first attempt is a testament to immense mental power!

Ordinary people absolutely couldn't do this, the elder found it hard to believe Ding Fan's words. He needed him to demonstrate, seeing is believing.

Upon hearing the elder's words, Ding Fan nodded, pondering for a moment, doing his best to recall the way the white-robed figure performed, then adjusting his True Qi.

Her!

Ding Fan extended one hand forward, while the other spiraled down along the raised arm, his body half-crouching, in an archer's stance. That hand moved like a swimming dragon underneath his body, suddenly lunging out!

Boom!

With a dull sound, the small tree in front of Ding Fan suddenly exploded into pieces!

Ding Fan gradually collected himself, sighing softly, not entirely satisfied with this effect.

"Golden Dragon Emergence..."

At this moment, the elder was already dumbfounded, his face filled with astonishment, muttering to himself from time to time.

How is this possible?

This is the first time he entered the stele, yet he learned this move "Golden Dragon Emergence," this is simply incredible!

Back then, it took him full three months to see clearly the white-clothed man's move, and another six months to reluctantly learn the move, tallying up to half a year in total.

Yet, the young one saw this move, learning it on the first entry into the stele!

This is almost monstrous!

Back then, when he mastered this move, it marked the rise of his fame, this move as his signature helped him defeat numerous talented cultivators, allowing him to make a name on the Donglai Continent.

Thus, he named this first move "Golden Dragon Emergence."

Unexpectedly, the move "Golden Dragon Emergence," which took him roughly half a year to learn, was grasped by him on the first entry.

Although not fully proficient yet, achieving an explosive effect on the first attempt is already remarkable!

This child can't be simply described as talented, he is an absolute prodigy!

To Ding Fan, this move was merely his first trial, not satisfied with the effects, yet enough to shock him.

It's known that the move he executed was clumsy, actions not smooth, even True Qi not fully deployed, but still able to cause such an explosive force, clearly showing the move's uncommon nature.

Ding Fan was clear in his heart that to fully refine this move with excellence would take time and knew that if the move reached a certain level, it would be incredibly formidable!

"The name 'Golden Dragon Emergence' seems quite nice."

Ding Fan hearing the elder's words, couldn't help but say.

The elder stared at Ding Fan in sheer disbelief, couldn't believe the young guy actually performed the "Golden Dragon Emergence" on his first entry!

The elder looked at Ding Fan and slowly said:

"Practicing the move 'Golden Dragon Emergence,' initially it's best not to use True Qi, relying solely on physical power, letting True Qi move naturally, creating the best effect, the most effective training method."

Upon hearing the elder's words, Ding Fan was momentarily stunned.

He then began to ponder over the elder's advice and realized the truth in his words - the "Golden Dragon Emergence" practiced in the elder's manner might truly be the best method.

Unable to hold back his gratitude, Ding Fan said:

"Thank you for your guidance, senior. I'll try again."

After speaking, Ding Fan began to wave his hand, pointing one finger towards the sky, with his other hand like a swimming dragon. This time, Ding Fan did not intentionally mobilize True Qi. Yet, when he thrust out his palm, a surge of True Qi from his dantian naturally accompanied it, erupting fiercely from his palm.

Boom!

Crack!

A small tree several meters away from Ding Fan instantly shattered into pieces!

"Indeed much stronger! But it is quite strange..."

This technique was significantly more powerful than before, even Ding Fan was extremely shocked. He hadn't expected that not using True Qi would be more potent than using it.

For a moment, Ding Fan felt perplexed; generally, for any fist technique or martial arts, the effect becomes stronger with True Qi infusion. Why then did the fist technique demonstrated by the man in white differ so much from ordinary ones?

The elder looked at Ding Fan, who was deep in thought, and then said:

"Isn't it strange? That's exactly right. It's the unique strength of this cultivation technique! This fist technique represents the pinnacle for body refining cultivators! No exceptions!"

Ding Fan heard what the elder said but was momentarily puzzled. He understood body refinement, but what did body refining cultivator mean?

Immediately, Ding Fan respectfully asked:

"Senior, what is a body refining cultivator?"

"A body refining cultivator focuses primarily on physical conditioning, practicing fist techniques, leg techniques, and agility martial arts, rather than solely enhancing cultivation or increasing internal True Qi."

The elder patiently explained to Ding Fan, his eyes full of affection as he gazed upon Ding Fan, thinking what a rare genius in body refinement Ding Fan was.

"Not increasing cultivation?"

Upon hearing this, Ding Fan couldn't help but furrow his brow. It was his first time hearing about cultivators who do not focus on cultivation growth. Although he focused on body refinement and physical conditioning, he still felt cultivation was equally important.

He wondered how the cultivation level of those specialized in body refinement might be.

The elder seemed to spot Ding Fan's confusion and continued to explain:

"For body refining cultivators, cultivation is naturally elevated, which generally doesn't fall short. This cultivation tends to be more solid than that of ordinary cultivators, and their strength is evident."

Upon hearing the elder's explanation, Ding Fan was struck with enlightenment.

It was like the fist technique he practiced just now. Ding Fan felt that long-term practice would naturally elevate the True Qi within him.

This kind of natural elevation of cultivation is indeed more grounded than mere cultivation, but the difficulty is undoubtedly high. Ding Fan realized that despite not deliberately mobilizing True Qi during the "Golden Dragon Emergence," he still felt the True Qi emerge naturally.

Such mastery is beyond ordinary cultivators; it requires profound insights into the fist technique or martial arts. Ding Fan believed that it would take a typical cultivator considerable time to reach his level.

Thus, Ding Fan speculated that body refining cultivators must be powerful geniuses with exceptional strength!

Ordinary cultivators wouldn't achieve such mastery easily.

"Young man, not bad!"

The elder nodded with satisfaction, watching Ding Fan execute the "Golden Dragon Emergence" once again, saying.

After leaving this praise, the elder turned and departed, swiftly disappearing from Ding Fan's sight.

Ding Fan watched the elder leave, wanting to express his gratitude, but the elder's speed was too swift, vanishing before Ding Fan could utter his thanks, leaving only those words behind.

Ding Fan guessed that this mysterious elder must be a master in body refinement.

Subsequently, Ding Fan returned to his residence, and upon seeing Wang Hu, he realized a day and night had passed. Ding Fan hadn't expected to have spent such a long time at the stele.

Ding Fan had formulated a plan to cultivate "Golden Dragon Emergence" to a certain degree. Enlightened by the mysterious elder's words, Ding Fan felt clear-minded at certain junctures, realizing the importance of his focus on physical conditioning.

He decided to maintain this focus and strive even harder in body refinement, knowing that only this would make his cultivation more solid, and his strength even more formidable!

Moreover, besides seeking out Zhou Ruoran, Gusu Qingwen, and Ye Ningbing daily, Ding Fan planned that once the "Golden Dragon Emergence" reached a certain level, he would enter the stele to study.

Ding Fan was convinced that the stele was no ordinary object, its fist techniques exceedingly formidable, with learning difficulties beyond imagination. Ding Fan found himself deeply interested in fist techniques for the first time.

In the days that followed, Ding Fan spent a great deal of time daily cultivating the "Golden Dragon Emergence."

In a short time, within just a few days, Ding Fan sensed noticeable progress in the "Golden Dragon Emergence," becoming much more powerful compared to his first execution. Furthermore, Ding Fan's cultivation advanced substantially through body refinement, a solid progression.

Unlike mere cultivation, it didn't feel superficial, but had an undeniably tangible sense.
