Chapter 0008: Cultivation of Martial Arts Techniques

I understand

Begin cultivation

The night veil covers the sky, the moonlight is like silk, and the stars are scattered.

After a moment, Du Shaofu stood up, reflecting on the cultivation methods he had just obtained from the training information of the Wave Fist. A series of hand seals immediately formed in Du Shaofu's hands, and he began to cultivate with his fists clenched. As he swung his fist, the air subtly trembled and fluctuated.

After contemplating his situation, Du Shaofu decided to first attempt practicing the lower-level technique of the Wave Fist. After all, he possessed profound energy within him. Although he had not cultivated any specific martial arts techniques, this did not hinder his ability to practice martial skills. It was only when one completely lacked profound energy that they would be unable to cultivate martial skills

You must be referring to Du Shaofu, the son of the third elder of the Du family. This third elder of the Du family is somewhat mysterious; he left Shicheng and is said to have fared well in his ventures outside. Sixteen years ago, he suddenly returned to Shicheng, bringing back a son with him

Although both sets of martial arts techniques are of the innate level, it is evident that the "Surging Waves Palm" is of a higher tier; otherwise, the Surging Waves Palm would not be placed on the third level, while the Wave Punch is positioned on the second level of the Hidden Martial Arts Building

In the depths of the forest behind the mountain, the moonlight streamed in through the dense overlapping leaves, leaving behind scattered patches of light in the dim mountain woods. Occasionally, the distant roar of wild beasts could be heard from within the mountain range

Above the night curtain, the stars are scattered like dots

As the mysterious energy fell upon the scroll, the entire scroll began to radiate with specks of light, the secret patterns flickering, gradually starting to unfold on their own, quite wondrously, until the secret patterns seemed poised to leap out.

On a small hillside, Du Shaofu sat cross-legged, his hands forming seals. Mysterious energy surged, and a stream of this energy burst forth from his palms, ultimately landing on the scroll laid out before him.

When Du Shaofu first laid eyes on that beast bone, he inexplicably felt a strange wave of emotion in his heart. This wave seemed to originate from the one or two meridians of his martial arts that had just been repaired. Therefore, Du Shaofu casually collected the beast bone, intending to study it thoroughly later.

"But what?" asked the slender middle-aged man with mild interest.

Approximately half an hour later, Du Shaofu, sitting cross-legged, exhaled a breath, his eyelashes fluttered slightly, and his clear eyes suddenly opened, sparkling with brilliance.

A cheerful voice emerged as a slender middle-aged man slowly walked out, appearing to be in his forties, with an extraordinary demeanor. He asked, "How was your visit to the Du family? Did you gain any special insights?"

In the evening, Du Shaofu returned to the courtyard, but did not see his father return either

The Du family seems to have a foolish young master, whom I encountered by chance at the Du residence this time; however, he appears to be somewhat different from what is rumored in the outside world

... ...

Over the years, Du Shaofu has become accustomed to the situation, estimating that his father is once again drinking too much and has fallen asleep somewhere. Although he is concerned in his heart, he feels helpless.

The young girl smiled faintly, recalling the demeanor and speech of that boy in the purple robe. His gaze was clear and bright, and he was certainly not the fool described in the rumors. Moreover, the strength he displayed in action was something even she could not fully comprehend

Miss Ye, I will continue to accompany you on your walk

After obtaining the "Surging Waves Palm" in the Tibetan Martial Arts Tower, Du Shaofu was aware that innate martial skills were extremely difficult to cultivate. He felt some concern about the possibility of not being able to successfully train in it, which is why he went to the second level to look for the seemingly less challenging "Wave Fist".

Du Shaofu murmured softly, this is the information about the Wave Fist obtained from the secret patterns of its cultivation.

Du Hao's face broke into a faint smile as he gazed at the slender figure in the purple robe from a distance, a flicker of sternness passing quietly through his eyes

It is naturally not very suitable to practice martial arts in the room, so Du Shaofu has to seek a more secluded place to cultivate his martial skills

One by one, the secret patterns converged to form a wave of secret pattern light, resembling a humanoid light shadow practicing a set of boxing techniques in front of him. Then, these waves of secret pattern light mysteriously surged into the center of Du Shaofu's forehead, whose eyes were gradually closing.

Father

Beneath innate martial skills, there exist acquired martial skills. However, Du Shaofu has little interest in cultivating the acquired level of martial skills

Find a place to try practicing the Wave Fist first

Beside the two volumes of martial arts scrolls lies a peculiar beast bone, measuring the size of a palm in length. It is exceedingly hard and difficult to grasp with one's hand, and its surface is marked with numerous vein-like patterns that seem to penetrate deep into the bone.

The young girl nodded to the middle-aged man, turned around, and continued to gaze at the bright moon in the sky. The night breeze gently brushed by, causing her dark hair to sway gracefully behind her

The young girl turned her head, smiled slightly, and with her red lips slightly parted, said: "The Du family in this generation is not weak; their overall level should be slightly higher than that of the other families. However, I suspect that the other three families have some hidden strengths as well. As for the Du family, there isn't anything particularly special, but..."

As the secret pattern entered the center of his brow, Du Shaofu's entire seated figure trembled slightly, enveloped in radiance. A crystalline sheen flickered across his resolute face, and finally, everything began to calm down, with the light on the scroll also fading away.

Hearing the girl's words, Du Hao could only glare fiercely at Du Shaofu's back before giving up. Otherwise, he would truly neglect the beauty beside him. He was just a fool; even if he wasn't foolish now, there would be plenty of time to deal with him later. As long as he was in the Du family, there would be many opportunities to handle a fool. Looking at the girl beside him, he deliberately added, "His father is a useless drunkard, and he is just a fool."

At the initial arena, seeing that the martial skills practiced by cousins Du Xue and Du Yu were full of flaws and numerous loopholes, Du Shaofu thought that even if they were cultivated, they would likely have little effect

The first set of martial arts is called 'Surging Waves Palm', which is an innate martial skill found on the third floor of the Du Shaofu's Hidden Martial Pavilion. The other set, 'Vibrating Fist', is an innate martial skill found on the second floor of the Hidden Martial Pavilion.

The girl's delicate curves were accentuated by the long dress she wore, presenting an alluring silhouette that made the surrounding young men feel shy about looking too much, yet they couldn't help but steal glances at her.

He is indeed one of the Du family, named Du Shaofu

In the ancient and simple stone pavilion, a young girl stands quietly, her beauty striking. With fair skin and a delicate face, her long hair cascades down, and her flowing dress envelops her, exuding an indescribable elegance and grace. Her bright eyes shimmer with brilliance in the moonlit night, adding a touch of sharpness to her refined demeanor. "Zijin."

After returning to the room and staring blankly for a while, Du Shaofu took out two scrolls and a peculiar beast bone from his bosom

The beast bone was also a find of Du Shaofu on the third floor of the Cangwu Tower, placed in an inconspicuous location, likely never disturbed by anyone in ordinary times

The middle-aged man spoke softly, and then his gaze flickered slightly as he looked at the bright moon in the sky, saying: "Shicheng has been peaceful for over a decade now; it is time for some excitement. Over the years, every family has likely not let their guard down. During this period, you should also strive to cultivate diligently and aim for further progress. Moreover, it seems that the Barbarian Beast Mountain Range has also been rather unsettled recently, so you should avoid entering it easily to prevent encountering any dangers"

Wave Fist, a martial art technique of innate initial level, generates waves of energy. Upon reaching mastery, it attains nine levels of wave fluctuations, with each layer stacking upon the previous one, doubling its power, sufficient to shatter the opponent's bones

Both scrolls are covered with secret patterns, exuding a sense of sharpness and weightiness. They are a set of martial arts techniques found on the third and second floors of the藏武楼 respectively.

Her gaze followed the tall figure that disappeared down the gravel path, and the young girl felt puzzled: "So he is Du Shaofu, is he really a fool..."
