The so-called "understanding the way" means dismantling the enemy's various attacks and strategies.
The method of explaining the Daoist principles is indeed incredibly profound, and the various techniques for countering moves are extremely exquisite.
However, to reach a first-class level in countering techniques, one needs powerful spiritual reflexes and extraordinary physical speed. Only by combining the two and mastering the unpredictable movement technique 'Shadow Strike' in the Dao-Clearing Manual can one be considered to have truly mastered the Dao-Clearing Manual.
After some contemplation, Ye Qiu concluded that the Instant Shadow Technique was the essence of the Dao-Unraveling Manual.
As the saying goes, in martial arts, speed is the only way to break through defenses.
When speed reaches its limit, combined with exquisite counter-attack techniques, it's hard not to be formidable.
"I should be able to complete the repair."
Ye Qiu muttered to himself, then fell into a deep state of contemplation.
"What did he just say?" Wu Daofeng asked Wu Manman beside him in utter astonishment.
Wu Manman said, "It seems like he's saying that he can achieve it."
“I heard that too,” Long Yue said.
"Okay, okay." Wu Daofeng's eyes shone with delight. "You two stay here and don't let anyone get close, so as not to disturb his comprehension. I have something to do."
"Grandpa, we still need to prepare for the competition. The Tongcheng League starts tomorrow..." Wu Manman hesitated before continuing.
“Those things are minor matters. Don’t expect other students to bring glory to the academy. If we want to achieve a ranking, Ye Qiu might be our only hope.”
He's exceptionally talented, and with the league's breakout season, many will inevitably notice him. Some with ulterior motives will also appear. For his safety, I need to mobilize the Shadow Guards.
Wu Daofeng looked serious.
Upon hearing this, both Long Yue and Wu Manman trembled.
The Divine Shadow Guards are the trump card of the Jiedao Academy. It is precisely because of the existence of the Divine Shadow Guards that the Jiedao Academy has a place in Tongcheng.
They never expected that this old man would actually mobilize the Shadow Guards for Ye Qiu's sake.
"Grandpa, why don't you stay and wait a bit? It would be better if Ye Qiu needed any help. Long Yue and I are completely clueless about Dao techniques," Wu Manman said hurriedly.
"That makes sense..."
Wu Daofeng seemed to be deep in thought.
Just then, Ye Qiu suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light.
"Kid, how's it going?"
Wu Daofeng asked hurriedly.
Ye Qiu shook his head but didn't say anything.
Seeing this, Wu Manman and Long Yue were both somewhat disappointed.
"It seems you haven't grasped the essence yet." Wu Manman sighed, but then she said, "It's alright, take your time. It's only the first day of trying to comprehend the Dao-Understanding Technique, so there's no need to rush."
“I think so too. The Dao-Unraveling Technique is a sacred method that requires a lot of skill to cultivate, so there’s no need to rush,” Long Yue added.
“No,” Ye Qiu said, “What I mean is that the Dao-Unraveling Technique is incomplete and flawed.”
"Hmm?" Wu Daofeng's expression hardened. "What do you mean by that?"
"Some of the incantations for the Shadow Step technique are missing, but it's not a big deal; you can fill in the gaps in your memory," Ye Qiu said.
"Hiss." Wu Daofeng gasped. "Are you serious?"
"Of course," Ye Qiu said with a smile. "Since you're here, I'll try to demonstrate our skills. Shall we spar a bit?"
"Okay, here you go."
Wu Daofeng couldn't wait to get into a fighting stance.
"Wait, what realm are you at, senior?" Ye Qiu couldn't help but ask before making a move.
"Not high, just the Cave Dharma Realm," Wu Daofeng said.
"Oh my god..." Ye Qiu's Adam's apple bobbed. "Senior, you need to control your strength. This junior is afraid of pain."
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Kid, come here quickly."
"Alright, senior, please take the initiative first."
Ye Qiu took a deep breath, said nothing more, and let the Dao-Unraveling Technique flow through his mind as he waited intently for Wu Daofeng to make his move.
Wu Daofeng raised his hand and began his attack.
Ye Qiu immediately activated the Dao-Dissolving Technique to neutralize Wu Daofeng's attack.
As soon as Ye Qiu made his move, Wu Daofeng's pupils shrank.
Because Ye Qiu's technique was extremely skillful and very familiar.
Bang.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Qiu feinted, bypassing Wu Daofeng's fist, and struck Wu Daofeng in the chest with a palm.
Wu Daofeng, a master of the Cave Dharma Realm, was forced back a step by Ye Qiu's punch.
Although it was only one step, it made Long Yue and Wu Manman beside her widen their eyes, their faces full of disbelief and utterly shocked.
"Again."
Wu Daofeng was overjoyed.
This time, Wu Daofeng changed his approach, and his moves became more flamboyant and flashy, while also possessing great destructive power.
Ye Qiu immediately felt immense pressure and frantically activated the Dao-Unraveling Technique. The wonders of the Dao-Unraveling Technique continued to be unleashed under the immense pressure.
Bang bang bang...
A series of impacts resounded continuously, and bursts of spiritual light erupted.
As their commotion grew louder, they both left Wu Manman's bedroom and went outside.
Wu Daofeng quietly and continuously increased his strength because he found that Ye Qiu's movements were becoming increasingly strange. Even though he knew a little about the Dao-breaking techniques, he was starting to have trouble figuring out Ye Qiu's moves and was hit several times.
However, Wu Daofeng relied on his profound cultivation level, which was a whole realm higher than Ye Qiu's, so even if he was hit, it wouldn't be a big deal for him.
As Wu Daofeng increased his magical power, Ye Qiu's pressure doubled once again.
"Damn it, senior, you're cheating." Ye Qiu couldn't help but remind him, "Watch your step."
“Kid, if I don’t push you, you won’t become truly strong. You can go all out and don’t hold back,” Wu Daofeng said.
"good."
Ye Qiu decided to stop holding back. He gradually perfected the Instant Shadow Technique and combined it with the wonderful moves of the Dao-Unraveling Technique. Every attack from Wu Daofeng was like hitting cotton. Although it was very powerful, it was weak and powerless.
