I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?

Chapter 61: Do You Have to Sunbathe to

Cultivate the Great Sun Golden Bell?-1

Translator: 549690339

Li Xuan had always been paying attention to Meng Chong. At this moment, he noticed a change in Meng Chong’s demeanor; an enhancement in his physical body and the emergence of blood and qi within him.

“Has he successfully understood the cultivation technique and begun practicing it?”

Li Xuan was overjoyed.

He quietly observed, using his highly keen senses as a martial artist adept at the mastery of qi and blood stage, and sensed the changes in Meng Chong.

“Is this the nascent phase of the Great Sun Golden Bell Shield, where the body is likened to a formidable bell?”

Meng Chong’s physical body had become stronger, reflecting an overall improvement that gave him an impression of being encased in a bell-like shield.

As he looked up at the sun, Li Xuan fell into contemplation.

Could it be that the Great Sun Golden Bell Shield required the practitioner to be under sunlight for effective absorption of qi and blood during cultivation?

If it were the sweltering summertime, wouldn’t they be susceptible to sunstroke?

“Exactly how did Meng Chong comprehend this? Why would he resort to practicing under the sun and manage to successfully cultivate?”

A sense of bewilderment rose within Li Xuan.

Adhering to his principle of imparting techniques without interfering in his disciple’s comprehension, he decided not to intervene even if the disciple exhibited peculiar behaviors.

But Meng Chong had successfully cultivated the Great Sun Golden Bell Shield under the sunlight. Could it be ineffective in the absence of sunlight?

“How exactly did he comprehend it?”

Li Xuan decided to wait until Meng Chong finished his practice, then probe into how he figured out the cultivation technique, and how he would practice if deprived of sunlight.

After all, Meng Chong had been practicing martial arts since he was young. He had a strong physique and his talents might indeed be leaning towards the physical domain.

Having comprehended the Great Sun Golden Bell Shield technique, he persisted in practicing. Although he missed the cooking time, Meng Chong was not exhausted at all.

However, Li Xuan did not disturb his disciple’s practice.

At this time, Shi Er arrived carrying a chicken.

Delivering one chicken daily had already become his routine task.

He was more than willing to do so.

Yet, seeing Meng Chong immersed in his practice, a twinge of envy flashed in his eyes.

Xu Yan, the disciple of the high-ranking expert, capable of single-handedly defeating the Divine Might Army, demonstrated a formidable strength indeed.

It seemed that Meng Chong, too, was fast becoming an unparalleled martial artist.

Li Xuan signaled Shi’er to come over.

Shi’Er jogged over respectfully, “Senior.”

“Can you cook?”

Li Xuan asked indifferently.

“Yes, yes!”

A wave of ecstasy swept over Shi’er.

Over the past days, he had been diligently learning how to cook, especially how to stew chicken soup!

It seemed that the senior really had a thing for chicken soup!

“Go cook. When stewing the chicken soup, remember to add Nine Leaves Ganoderma or Mountain Ginseng.”

Li Xuan waved his hand.

“Yes, senior!”

Shi’er was overjoyed. Now was his chance to shine.

Carrying the chicken, he left to slaughter it and cook.

Immersed in his cultivation, Meng Chong went through one cycle after another. After the second cycle, he felt his physique become stronger.

It seemed as though he was invulnerable to swords and spears!

“So this is martial arts, it’s so mysterious!”

Meng Chong was filled with excitement and ecstasy as he continued to practice diligently.

At this point, he had completely forgotten everything else. His whole mind was focused on cultivation.

“He’s nearly reached his limit.”

Li Xuan gauged Meng Chong’s physical condition. Three refinement cycles were the limit.

Just the fact that he could endure three refinement cycles during his first training signified Meng Chong’s natural affinity for physical cultivation.

True enough!

After three refinement cycles, Meng Chong reached a state of exhaustion.

At that very moment, he opened his eyes, and instantly felt the pangs of hunger.

“Damn! I forgot to cook!”

Meng Chong quickly checked the time and was taken aback.

Feeling the hunger in his stomach, he looked up at his master and admitted somewhat shamefacedly, “Master, I will go cook right now.”

“There’s no need. You’ve just started your training, using a lot of your energy and you must be hungry now. It’s time to refuel.”

Li Xuan stood up, his pace unhurried.

“Let’s have a meal!”

“Yes, master!”

Meng Chong let out a sigh of relief.

He followed his master into the dining hall. Shi’er had already served the food.

A big pot of chicken soup was fragrant. Meng Chong smelled it and immediately felt an urge to eat.

“Eat!”

Li Xuan said after sitting down.

“Yes, master!”

Meng Chong was excited, eagerly enjoying the meal.

After downing a bowl of soup, he felt energized and his hunger faded away.

Shi’er retreated to one side respectfully, waiting for Master Li Xuan and his disciple to finish their meal.

After clearing the dishes, Shi’er bowed,” If the senior has no other instructions, 1’11 take my leave!”

Li Xuan nodded.

Shi’er respectfully excused himself and left.

When it was just master and disciple left, Li Xuan spoke, “Tell me, what do you think about your cultivation of the Great Solar Bell Shield?”

“Yes, Master!”

Meng Chong immediately became more alert.

“To cultivate the Great Solar Bell Shield, 1 realized that it must be practiced under the sun. To better perceive the flow of life energy within myself, I must first feel the heat of the sun…”

Meng Chong explained in detail his process of understanding and how he trained.

Li Xuan remained expressionless, his mind buzzed in confusion. Could it be that the Great Solar Bell Shield really needed to be practiced under the harsh sun to succeed?

“Or perhaps, this is just Meng Chong’s own realization. He has merely used the sun’s heat to warm himself and thereby stimulate his life energy to begin training,” Li Xuan thought, his mind suddenly clear, new thoughts emerging.

You can also train the Great Solar Bell Shield even without the sun if you can just sense your lifeblood. However, Meng Chong was enlightened by the warm sensation of the sun, which allowed him to feel his life energy.

“Wait a minute! Does the intense sunlight help with the cultivation of the Great Solar Bell Shield? Is the effectiveness of the training better under the sun?”

Li Xuan was unsure.

Only after Meng Chong’s martial arts entrance, stepping into the realm of synthesizing life energy, would he be able to gain complete feedback for the complete cultivation technique of the Great Solar Bell Shield know for certain.

When Meng Chong finished speaking, Li Xuan calmly opened his mouth, “My disciple, 1 am pleased with your realization. But now, 1 have a question for you.”

“Master, please speak!”

Meng Chong was alerted and respectfully responded.

“What if there’s no sun, for example on rainy or cloudy days…How would you practice?”

Since the technique requires training under the sun, could one not practice should the sun not be divine?

Would training be halted?

What would one do in extreme cold conditions where there are only a few hours of sunlight for several months?

Meng Chong was dumbfounded.

He just recently understood the technique of the Great Solar Bell Shield and was still excited.

He had never thought about this before.

“This…”

Meng Chong was bewildered and didn’t know how to respond.

Li Xuan continued, “If there’s no sun at night, does that mean you can’t practice either? My disciple, you need to dig deeper into your understanding.”

Having spoken, he leisurely walked away leaving his disciple behind in thought.

All he needed to do was present the problem to his disciple and let him find the solution himself.

Li Xuan believed that Meng Chong could understand the true meaning of the Great Solar Bell Shield after breaking through this barrier.

“How do I practice when there’s no sun?”

“Do I not practice at night?”

“Do 1 not practice on rainy days?”

“Is there such a martial arts technique? My understanding is obviously too shallow.”

Meng Chong looks outside. It was now evening, with only the afterglow of the setting sun remaining..
