Chapter 920 Special Cultivation Method
After all matters regarding the winery were settled, Chen Yang sought out Elder Fan specifically.
Elder Fan seemed to know that Chen Yang was preparing to leave. After Chen Yang finished his arrangements, Elder Fan specially took Chen Yang to a secluded spot.
"The old immortal gave me some things back then, but my mind is slow and I didn't remember much."
"However, even so, I can still feel the benefits this thing brings me."
"For example, when I go into the mountains to gather herbs, I don't feel tired on this trip."
"I suppose it's because I've been practicing what the old immortal taught me back then."
As Elder Fan spoke, he took off his outer coat and stood on the white snow.
An old man, nearly eighty years old, revealed arms as strong as those of a young man.
Elder Fan stood tall like a pine, his arms hanging down, and muttered, "I know you're strong, young man, but the old immortal's teachings are extraordinary. Watch closely!"
The next second, Elder Fan's hands shot up.
The surrounding snow seemed to be stirred by an airflow, vibrating upwards together.
"Qi!"
Chen Yang's brows furrowed.
This was something only cultivators possessed.
But before today, Chen Yang had never sensed any such qi from Elder Fan!
Although it wasn't at the level of internal energy, it was undeniably qi.
If the condensed power were a bit stronger, Elder Fan would be a cultivator!
Normally wrinkled by the sun and moon, Elder Fan's face now resembled an enlightened being dancing in the snow.
Every move and every stance carried the aura of a cultivator.
A few minutes later, Elder Fan slowly retracted his movements.
In the icy, snowy expanse, a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Elder Fan looked at Chen Yang and asked somewhat nervously, "Did you see it clearly?"
When he learned this, the old immortal had said that seeing it once indicated talent, while he himself had taken more than half a month to learn it, showing no talent at all.
Moreover, even after learning it, those with weaker physiques could not endure the full sequence of movements.
Elder Fan had only managed to complete it the first time with the old immortal's help, gritting his teeth.
Later, after drinking that immortal wine and practicing diligently every day, it took Elder Fan more than half a year to smoothly perform the first set.
Elder Fan didn't know how many times Chen Yang would need to watch, but he hoped Chen Yang could understand it in one go.
This way... the old immortal's wish at the time would be fulfilled.
"About... I can understand most of it?" Chen Yang spoke while his mind was still recalling the moves he had just seen.
Elder Fan was a little conflicted by Chen Yang's answer.
But before Elder Fan could speak, Chen Yang took two steps back, draped his clothes over a nearby branch, and said, "I'll perform it once. Since Elder Fan is here, if there are any issues, we can correct them on the spot."
"Ah? There are incantations, I haven't yet..." Elder Fan hadn't finished speaking when his mouth suddenly fell open, staring at the scene before him in shock.
Chen Yang had already begun to move!
Compared to Elder Fan's stirring of the wind and snow, Chen Yang seemed to be controlling it.
Chen Yang was naturally aware of the incantations Elder Fan mentioned.
Unique cultivation methods, more than just the physical movements, placed importance on the mental techniques and incantations.
These mental techniques and incantations were the foundation of internal energy circulation.
However, Chen Yang hadn't just observed Elder Fan's movements; he had also perceived the flow of qi within Elder Fan's body.
For Elder Fan, who wasn't even a cultivator, and for Chen Yang, who was already at the peak of the Grandmaster realm and had enhanced his spiritual power multiple times, it was effortless to perceive the flow of qi within Elder Fan's body, let alone the circulation of qi.
If Elder Fan could stir the wind and snow, then Chen Yang was now commanding the wind and snow as his soldiers, with himself as the general!
When Chen Yang concluded his movements, he slowly exhaled a breath of cold air.
Just now, all the pores on his limbs had been opened to allow the internal energy to evenly circulate around his body.
Without doing so, it would have been impossible to control all the wind and snow around him.
Elder Fan, who had been holding his breath tightly, finally relaxed.
Watching Chen Yang slowly approach him, Elder Fan took a deep breath, cast a peculiar glance at Chen Yang, and then said, "Your performance was even smoother than mine. Are you sure you haven't practiced this before?"
"Hahaha, I didn't expect Elder Fan to see through me. I have practiced something similar, you could say it's akin to learning by analogy."
Elder Fan had seen and experienced much, so Chen Yang didn't hide it from him.
Although Chen Yang's Heavenly Physician's Art focused more on the circulation of internal energy, it also had some aspects related to physical conditioning. However, Chen Yang had been researching the Nine Secrets of the Heavenly Witch recently, so Elder Fan hadn't seen Chen Yang practicing.
"So this is your first time performing this immortal technique!"
Elder Fan's eyes held a flicker of excitement. He hadn't expected someone to learn it in just one viewing.
This Chen Yang was indeed talented!
He hadn't misjudged him at all.
Seeing Elder Fan's excitement, Chen Yang scratched his head sheepishly, "If it were before, learning it in one go would have been quite stressful."
He hadn't discussed his peak Grandmaster status or other advancements with Elder Fan in detail.
Chen Yang could see that Elder Fan had a certain fixation in this regard.
Back then, even with the personal guidance of the old immortal Qin Yi, he hadn't become a cultivator, which was likely a thorn in Elder Fan's heart.
On their way back, Elder Fan spoke earnestly to Chen Yang, "The old immortal lived in the snowy forest with Wu Bandao and Zhang Dao. By rights, I wouldn't be considered the old immortal's disciple."
"However, this technique originated from the old immortal."
"In the future, when you teach others, you must carefully assess both their character and their talent. If you happen to pass it on to someone with a bad character..."
At this point, Elder Fan paused and looked intently at Chen Yang.
Chen Yang naturally understood Elder Fan's meaning.
He nodded emphatically, "I understand."
Elder Fan looked at Chen Yang with immense satisfaction. In his heart, entrusting the old immortal's teachings to Chen Yang, he knew he hadn't made the wrong choice.
This Chen Yang was someone worth entrusting.
Elder Fan had been observing Chen Yang these past few days.
Whether it was the winery or the road construction, Chen Yang's promises to improve the villagers' lives were all being carried out in an orderly fashion!
Elder Fan was naturally very pleased.
The teachings left behind by the old immortal were the most precious things in Elder Fan's heart.
Chen Yang could see tangible proof of all this, and Elder Fan must have given it deep consideration before handing these things over to him.
As for the immortal technique Elder Fan mentioned, Chen Yang had also gained some insight into it just now.
The cultivation method that Senior Qin Yi had taught Elder Fan was extremely unique.
