"I didn't think that you would be able to take advantage of this opportunity to break through. However, your cultivation technique seems to be very special. It seems to have traces of a demonic beast's aura." A clear and delicate voice drifted into Du Shaofu's ears. A pair of slightly puzzled eyes landed on Du Shaofu's body.
"You're back?"
Du Shaofu instantly stood up. His gaze shifted to the young girl who had returned at an unknown time. She had a tall and slender figure, an exquisite and peerless countenance, and beautiful jade-like eyes. Her entire being emitted a faint spiritual energy, giving people a sense of tranquility. This young girl couldn't help but think of the word 'elf'. This young girl was an elf.
"En, it seems like you're fine now."
The young girl gazed at Du Shaofu. Within her beautiful jade-like eyes, there were ripples of surprise. Beneath her green robes, there was a graceful arc that would cause people to feel breathless. She then looked at Du Shaofu and said, "You're really a monster. With such heavy injuries, you actually completely recovered and even broke through. This is truly inconceivable. I'm afraid that if my master didn't see it with his own eyes, he wouldn't believe it."
Du Shaofu smiled faintly. After that, he asked, "Oh right, where's your master?" Du Shaofu still remembered that this fairy-like young girl's master was also a terrifying expert. Her strength was simply tyrannical to the point of being terrifying.
The young girl slightly raised her head. Her eyes were like water, seemingly amiable. However, she also gave people a faint feeling of being a thousand miles away from her. Her pearly white teeth lightly parted as her lips curved upwards. She then said, "My master isn't here. I came to the Dark Forest to temper myself for a period of time. My master said that I should temper myself more, as it would be beneficial for my future cultivation."
"Thank you for saving me this time."
Du Shaofu gazed at the young girl in front of him. Her fine black hair swayed slightly in the wind. She was elegant and refined. This kind of temperament made people unable to touch her.
"I said there's no need to thank me. You also saved me before."
The young girl gazed at Du Shaofu before asking, "What do you plan to do next?"
"Me?"
Du Shaofu's gaze flickered. He touched the black spot on his neck and said, "I'll find a way to remove this Black Fiend Soul-Tracking Seal before heading to Tianwu Academy."
"Tianwu Academy? I've heard my master mention it before. It shouldn't be too far from the Dark Forest. My master said that Tianwu Academy used to be very powerful, but the current Tianwu Academy isn't as strong as before."
After that, she quietly stared at Du Shaofu. Her jade-like eyes were as calm as water as she continued, "Since you are fine now, I have to leave as well."
"Didn't you want to train in the Dark Forest?" When Du Shaofu heard this, he didn't know why, but when he heard the girl say that she wanted to leave, he suddenly felt a little disappointed.
Hearing this, the girl smiled faintly. This smile caused everything around her to pale in comparison. It was as if this smiling face was the only thing that existed in this entire space. She said to Du Shaofu, "I want to temper myself. Master won't let me slack off."
"Why don't we go together? Since I want to head to Tianwu Academy, I have to pass through the Dark Forest. "Du Shaofu said to the girl with anticipation in his eyes.
The girl hesitated for a moment before nodding her head. "I should be leaving the Dark Forest soon. However, I still have some time in the Dark Forest, so I can stay with you."
"That's great."
Du Shaofu smiled. His mood was extremely good. Looking at the fairy-like girl before him, he asked, "My name is Du Shaofu. What's your name?"
"Dongli Qingqing."
The girl said softly, "I forgot to tell you. I noticed that there are quite a few people from the Black Fiend Sect in the vicinity. Their cultivation isn't bad and they should be looking for you. How did you offend them?"
"Black Fiend Sect!"
Hearing this, Du Shaofu's face turned sharp. He clenched his fists tightly and raised his head to look outside the cave. It seemed like the Black Fiend Sect really wanted to bury him in the Dark Forest.
"Even if they don't come looking for me, I won't let them off."
Du Shaofu's voice was stern. His gaze was cold as he said in a low voice, "I will make them regret it one day."
"They have a lot of people and your cultivation is still low. Even though you're like a monster, I'm afraid you won't be able to fight against the Black Fiend Sect." Dongli Qingqing said to Du Shaofu.
Du Shaofu clenched his fists tightly and said, "I will do it one day. At that time, it will be time for them to regret it!"
Dongli Qingqing didn't say anything else. Her beautiful jade-like eyes shifted away from Du Shaofu's face. She turned around and walked out of the cave. "Let's go down the mountain. If you want to follow me, you have to accompany me to a place first!"
"Alright."
Du Shaofu looked at the back of that refined and otherworldly figure and then stepped forward.
Outside the cave was the top of a steep cliff. It was so high that it made people dizzy. Below it was a deep valley. It was frighteningly quiet and cold.
It was noon and the sun was dazzling. It shone on the vast and boundless Dark Forest in the distance.
In the distance, there were mountain peaks towering out of the dense forest. They were scattered in layers, but they looked extremely majestic and peculiar.
Du Shaofu followed Dongli Qingqing down a rugged path from the top of the cliff. In fact, there wasn't a path. It was just that the two of them forced it into a path.
Along the way, Dongli Qingqing didn't say anything. Her every movement was natural. No matter what she did, she was like a spirit that blended into the heaven and earth.
Then, the two of them walked into the dense forest. Du Shaofu began to be on guard. His gaze swept around from time to time. He was extremely cautious.
"We got lost too slowly. We have to speed up." Suddenly, Dongli Qingqing turned around and said to Du Shaofu.
"Okay, actually I …"
Du Shaofu nodded. He seemed to want to say something, but his voice was interrupted by Dongli Qingqing. She said, "I'll teach you a set of body movement. It's not a body movement martial skill, but it's not comparable to ordinary body movement martial skills. It's passed down in my clan. I'll teach you, but you can't teach it to anyone else. Also, don't use it casually in the future. If you're unlucky, it may bring you big trouble."
As her voice fell, without waiting for Du Shaofu to speak, Dongli Qingqing continued slowly, "The body movement I'm going to teach you is called 'Wave-like Freedom Steps'. It requires the support of extremely powerful Xuan Qi. You also have to comprehend the power of nature.
All things in the world are natural. You also have to practice the incantation. If you force yourself to practice the 'Wave-like Freedom Steps', the meridians in your body will be disrupted. If you're lucky, you'll be paralyzed. If it's serious, you'll suffer from Qigong Deviation. You'll even be in danger of breaking your meridians.
Rest and fly like a duck, drifting like a god. Wave-like Subtle Steps, Luo Xiong Dusty. Walk freely, graceful like a graceful swan. Move and move impermanently, as if in danger and as if in safety. It's difficult to enter and stop, if it's past, if it's still … "
Incantation after incantation passed from Dongli Qingqing's mouth to Du Shaofu's ears. Then, her beautiful figure moved slightly, and her footsteps changed. Obviously, it was extremely ordinary, but suddenly, it changed unpredictably, drifting like a god.
Du Shaofu's gaze was fixed on Dongli Qingqing's footsteps. Then, he seemed to have fallen into a sluggish state.
"Rest and fly like a duck, drifting like a god. Wave-like Subtle Steps, Luo Xiongdun. Walk freely, graceful like a graceful swan. Move unpredictably, as if it's dangerous or safe. It's difficult to enter and stop, if it's still … Following Dongli Qingqing's footsteps, Du Shaofu murmured softly. Suddenly, an ethereal temperament gushed out from his body.
Dongli Qingqing turned her head to look at Du Shaofu. Within her beautiful, glass-like eyes, there was some astonishment. She didn't expect him to be able to grasp the basics of the family's ancestral movement technique so quickly. It was said that even the most terrifyingly talented person in the family couldn't grasp the basics so quickly.
Then, Dongli Qingqing continued to look forward. Her footsteps changed. She didn't fly, but her speed was getting faster and faster. Especially in this dense forest, this movement technique was even more ethereal. It was as if it could merge into one with the space. Shuttling through the bushes and weeds was like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water. It was also as graceful as a swan.
Du Shaofu still couldn't reach the same level as Dongli Qingqing, but his speed was getting faster and faster. It seemed that he had gradually comprehended the essence of it.
The more he comprehended, the more shocked Du Shaofu was. This Wave-like Carefree Steps was definitely not ordinary. He didn't know which ancestor expert in Dongli Qingqing's family had comprehended it. This movement technique was all-encompassing and mysterious.
The more he comprehended the Wave-like Carefree Steps, the softer and more casual it was when he activated it. The more ethereal it was, the more effortless it was to be able to accelerate.
"Chi chi!"
After nearly four hours, after passing through a large area of dense forest, Dongli Qingqing's footsteps came to a halt. Her beautiful figure slowly came to a stop.
Du Shaofu swept from behind. He restrained the Qi under his feet and stabilized his body in an extremely free and easy manner. However, he was obviously much worse than Dongli Qingqing.
"How do you feel?" Dongli Qingqing asked with a smile.
"The Wave-like Carefree Steps is so powerful. It seems to contain a lot of movement techniques of birds and beasts." Du Shaofu said.
"I didn't expect you to be able to comprehend this step so quickly. You're really a monster."
Dongli Qingqing nodded slightly and then said to Du Shaofu, "The Wave-like Carefree Steps indeed contains movement techniques of birds and beasts. However, they all take the graceful and unfettered side. You can observe more birds and beasts in the future. It will be helpful for you to comprehend the Wave-like Carefree Steps."
"Okay!"
Du Shaofu nodded and said to Dongli Qingqing, "I will comprehend it well."
"According to the rumors in my clan, if you can comprehend the Wave-like Carefree Steps to the strongest level, you can also grasp the moon and pick the stars in the sky and subdue the flood dragon and capture the dragon in the sea. You can also walk on the waves and be free and unfettered." Dongli Qingqing smiled at Du Shaofu and said, "Unfortunately, this is also a legend."
"The Wave-like Carefree Steps is so vast. Maybe it is really possible after you comprehend it thoroughly." Du Shaofu said. The Wave-like Carefree Steps was indeed not an ordinary thing.
"There seems to be some movement in front." Suddenly, Dongli Qingqing looked in front of her.
"Time to update. Today's update is complete. It's the last two days of this month. Brothers, please check if there are any fresh flowers. I'm looking for fresh flowers and recommendation tickets. "
