At this moment, Han Feng spoke up: "Grandpa, have you forgotten something?"
Grandpa Liu turned to look at Han Feng, then slapped his forehead and said, "I almost forgot, you came to watch me demonstrate my moves. It's all my fault for getting too excited when I saw Meng Ran open the path to becoming a cultivator, and I almost forgot about it."
Han Feng looked melancholy and said, "Sigh, it seems the old man's memory really isn't good."
Grandpa Liu blushed and said, "Okay, let's finish breakfast first, and then I'll take you to the cultivation room. I'll definitely demonstrate for you."
Liu Mengran, who was standing nearby, also came over to smooth things over: "Hey, come on, I'm starving."
After breakfast, Grandpa Liu led Han Feng through several corridors to a secret room in the backyard. This was the same unassuming brick house where he had their private conversation with Han Feng last time. The old man placed his palm on the pattern on the door, and with a flow of internal energy, the heavy metal door slid open silently.
"This training room is made of a special alloy. After all, you've been here before." Old Master Liu stepped inside, the walls lighting up softly with each step. "Don't let its unassuming appearance fool you; it can actually withstand a full-force attack from an early-stage Innate Realm cultivator."
Han Feng curiously touched the wall, feeling a subtle electric current through his fingertips. The material was similar to that of certain classified areas of the Longyuan base, but it also had an inexplicable energy fluctuation.
"The Liu family has a lineage of experts who reached the mid-stage of the Innate Realm." Old Master Liu walked to the center of the cultivation room, his sleeves fluttering even without wind. "However, in my generation, we've been stuck at the late-stage Perfection of the Acquired Realm, unable to break through. Otherwise, other families wouldn't have stolen our cultivation stones."
Han Feng's pupils contracted slightly. If it took a full-force attack from an early-stage Innate Realm cultivator to break through the Liu family's cultivation room, then just how strong must the defenses of the three great reclusive families of China be?
"Alright, kid." Old Master Liu turned around, his eyes gleaming. "You said you wanted to see all the moves?" He suddenly grinned, a sly glint in his wrinkles. "Aren't you afraid of biting off more than you can chew?"
Han Feng straightened his back: "Grandpa, please demonstrate. I only need to verify one thing. As for how much I can learn from it, that depends entirely on my own abilities."
"Good! You have guts!" Old Master Liu laughed heartily, his laughter echoing like thunder in the enclosed space. "Then I'll begin with the three basic techniques of the Liu family—"
The old man's figure suddenly blurred, and his right palm traced a mysterious trajectory like a butterfly flitting among flowers. Although the movement was not fast, Han Feng saw seven afterimages appear at the same time, and each afterimage's palm was condensed with a different colored vortex.
"First move, Azure Nether Palm!"
The seven palm shadows merged into one and slammed into the alloy dummy being tested. Seven palm prints of varying depths instantly appeared on the dummy's chest, arranged in the shape of the Big Dipper.
Han Feng gasped. This palm technique appeared gentle, but it actually concealed seven layers of force; if it struck a human body...
"Watch closely, the second move!" Before Han Feng could digest it, Old Master Liu's figure suddenly rose higher, and a surge of azure energy appeared out of thin air, "Azure Dragon Emerges from the Sea!"
A whirlwind suddenly swept through the training room, and the old man's figure seemed to transform into a dragon, the air exploding wherever his leg swept past. The test dummy's head was struck by the final kick, spinning 360 degrees.
Han Feng subconsciously touched his neck. This move was ruthless and fierce, completely different from the kind and gentle demeanor of Old Master Liu.
"Third move—" The moment Old Master Liu landed, he clenched his hands into claws and slammed them into the ground, "Subduing Dragon!"
Ten pale blue energy energies shot out from the floor, firmly binding another test dummy in the distance. Han Feng could clearly see that those energy energies resembled chains.
"This is just an appetizer." Old Master Liu stopped, standing still without batting an eye. "Next up are the three secret techniques of the Liu family; I'll only demonstrate them once."
Han Feng immediately focused all his attention. He saw Old Master Liu take a deep breath, and suddenly a blue aura appeared around his body. Old Master Liu split into three streams of energy, which coiled around his arms like serpents. Han Feng vaguely felt that this blue aura contained boundless chill.
This is the true level of the Azure Nether Technique!
"Jin Ge!" The old man slashed out with his right hand, and a cyan energy blade tore through the air, leaving a three-inch deep cut on the alloy wall ten meters away.
"Green Vine!" With a flick of his left hand, the green energy transformed into a long whip once more, sweeping the test doll up by the waist and slamming it down heavily.
"Cold Spring!" The jet of air shot out like a water arrow bursting from the fingertip, instantly forming a thick layer of frost on the surface of the doll it hit.
The ball of light shot out of his hand, expanding continuously during its flight before crashing into the testing area like a meteorite. The entire training room shook violently; had it not been constructed of special materials, this attack would have been enough to destroy an ordinary building.
After the smoke cleared, a crater five meters in diameter appeared in the test area, its edges as clean as if cut by a knife. Han Feng's Adam's apple bobbed; the power was comparable to that of a tactical missile.
"So, the techniques of ancient martial arts families also, as Zero said, materialize energy," Han Feng thought to himself.
Han Feng quickly grasped the essence of it. With the activation of the star orbit, the power of the stars in his body simulated the energy of the Azure Nether Technique. This is the domineering nature of the power of the stars. As long as you understand the origin, you can switch between them at will.
"How was it?" Old Master Liu dusted off his sleeves and looked at Han Feng with a smug expression.
"Grandpa," Han Feng suddenly looked up, his eyes sparkling, "Could you demonstrate the flow of your internal energy again?"
Grandpa Liu dusted himself off, a half-smile playing on his lips: "What? You really want to steal my skills?"
"It's not about stealing techniques," Han Feng said seriously, "it's about... fusion."
With his palm facing upwards, a ball of milky-white starlight power appeared, followed by a wisp of cyan slowly emerging in the center—the aura of a simplified version of the Azure Nether Technique.
Grandpa Liu's smile froze. "This is Xuanming Qi!" Xuanming Qi is the energy produced by cultivating the Qingming Technique.
Han Feng smiled and said, "This is a characteristic of my original energy; it can imitate the energy of others." After saying that, the azure energy flow turned and instantly transformed into scorching fire element.
Grandpa Liu was completely stunned. He had lived most of his life and had never seen anyone's primordial energy do such a thing. He then demonstrated the three wonders of the Liu family once again.
After carefully examining the document, Han Feng raised his hand and perfectly replicated the special move that Old Master Liu had just used.
"This..." Old Master Liu stared blankly at everything, rubbing his eyes in disbelief. What surprised him most was not only Han Feng's Star Power, but also that even among the geniuses of the Liu family throughout the generations, none had been able to perfectly replicate the Liu family's Three Unique Skills after watching a demonstration only once.
"Tell me quickly, how did you do that!" Old Master Liu grabbed Han Feng and asked frantically.
"Grandpa, please let go of me first, and I'll tell you, okay?" Han Feng said, feeling dizzy from being shaken.
