But for now, it's more than enough for Zhu Zhuqing.
Martial arts advance through practice.
If it were really like those novels, where you just pick up a divine skill and become invincible…
Then the words "invincible under heaven" wouldn't be worth much.
Xiao Yan stepped aside and said, "You try it."
Nodding slightly, Zhu Zhuqing also stood before the boulder. Recalling Xiao Yan's movements, she swung her arms. Because of her Martial Soul Avatar, her already sharp claws immediately tore into the stone.
After a few sparks, a dozen gray-white marks appeared on the boulder.
Xiao Yan walked forward, raised his hand, and wrapped his arm around Zhu Zhuqing's willow-like waist, holding one of her arms.
"When you exert force, don't just rely on brute strength. You also need to think about channeling your inner power into your meridians."
Following Zhu Zhuqing's wrist, Xiao Yan's palm moved along her arm, massaging and pressing as he went, finally tapping her shoulder lightly.
Instantly, Zhu Zhuqing felt the Soul Power within her body surge into the few meridians in her arm as if a dam had burst, completely out of her control.
Under the infusion of this power, her palm slightly curled, and five strands of energy shot out from her five fingers.
With a bang, five holes appeared on the boulder.
However, because Zhu Zhuqing's Soul Power was weak, even with Xiao Yan's guidance, she only managed to penetrate halfway through.
After firing these five strands of energy, Zhu Zhuqing felt that nearly one-third of her Soul Power had been consumed.
Suddenly, Zhu Zhuqing remembered her fight with Xiao Yan at the Great Soul Arena of Soto.
Xiao Yan had used a similar technique when he grabbed her arm at the end of that match.
Xiao Yan said, "The Crushing Grip is designed to strike suddenly when the opponent knows they can't retaliate. It's incredibly difficult to dodge or block. Although your Soul Power isn't very deep yet, if you seize the crucial moment and launch a surprise attack, taking the enemy's life won't be difficult."
Zhu Zhuqing looked at her palm and nodded slightly.
Growing up in her family, she had witnessed battles and numerous dark assassinations, so she naturally understood the advantage of a sneak attack, which often allows the weak to overcome the strong.
After completely instructing Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Yan created some Blue Silver Recovery Pills, allowing her to practice diligently without worrying about Soul Power consumption.
Aside from the Tang Sect techniques, he had a single experience package in martial arts, but everything else he learned through his own exploration.
He didn't have much experience in teaching disciples.
It can only be said that the master guides the door, but cultivation depends on the individual.
Having obtained a powerful martial skill, Zhu Zhuqing practiced with great focus.
Unknowingly, it was already night.
Xiao Yan started a bonfire and set up a large pot.
The Star Dou Great Forest was cold at night.
In the cold night, nothing was more comfortable than eating a hot pot.
If nothing particularly disruptive happened…
Hearing the rustling sounds approaching, Xiao Yan put down his bowl and chopsticks, letting everyone else continue eating. He himself stood up and looked to his right.
Under the bright moonlight and the flickering light of the bonfire, Xiao Yan saw a pitch-black, enormous spider.
Its body had a diameter of over one and a half meters, and its eight spear-like legs were over three meters long, making it a truly bizarre sight. The entire body was covered in black, shiny armor. The front of its legs were slender, and each step it took silently pierced into the ground, a testament to their sharpness.
Xiao Yan saw it, and the spider naturally saw Xiao Yan as well.
Having run for a long time, it was now feeling a bit dizzy from hunger. Its eight legs moved rapidly, even creating a series of afterimages as it charged straight towards Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan smiled faintly, "Doesn't know what's good for it."
With a casual wave of his hand, a gust of wind whistled out, and the surrounding weeds instantly fell to the ground.
The Man Faced Demon Spider felt as if it had slammed into a mountain. A surge of immense force hit it, and its entire body was sent flying dozens of meters away.
Its eight legs were pointed towards the sky, like an overturned turtle.
At this moment, Xiao Yan finally got a good look at the spider's underbelly.
With the spider's black body, there was a striking contrast of white markings on its underbelly.
These white markings formed a menacing human face, and eight small eyes, shimmering with a faint purple light, were situated on its underbelly.
However, two of the eyes seemed to have been damaged, leaving a bloody mess, and there were several cracks on the carapace of its underbelly.
Ning Rongrong swallowed the rabbit meat in her mouth and curiously stood up to look at the Soul Beast that Xiao Yan had knocked away: "It's actually a Man Faced Demon Spider, the nightmare of small Soul Beasts. What a unlucky fellow."
This Man Faced Demon Spider was naturally an extremely terrifying existence for ordinary Soul Beasts.
Not only was it incredibly fast, but it also had a sturdy carapace, and its eight spider legs were laced with deadly poison.
In addition, the most terrifying thing about it was the spider web it spat out.
Ordinary spiders spin silk to create webs, but this one could instantly spit them out.
Even powerful Soul Masters would find it troublesome.
"So this is the Man Faced Demon Spider?" Xiao Yan had naturally heard of this famous Soul Beast, but he wasn't quite sure what it looked like.
The name didn't match the appearance.
Xiao Yan was quite interested. "I heard its web can cover an area ten times its own size, and it's incredibly tough. I wonder how many times it's used its three-times-a-day web-spraying ability?"
"You're not thinking of taking its web, are you?" Seeing Xiao Yan's eagerness, Ning Rongrong quickly imagined a scene. "How disgusting…"
Xiao Yan was speechless. Ning Rongrong's mind could wander even more than his.
He, Xiao Yan, was not that sort of base person.
After a few leaps to the Man Faced Demon Spider, Xiao Yan looked at the motionless, black giant spider and raised his hand to grab a spider leg, giving it a shake.
Having cultivated the Dragon Elephant Profound Armor Technique, he was already immune to all poisons, and his terrifying internal strength meant he wasn't afraid of the Man Faced Demon Spider's minor poison.
While shaking the spider legs, Xiao Yan called out to the Man Faced Demon Spider's somewhat ugly head, "Hey, wake up!"
The sudden force was so great that it left the Man Faced Demon Spider quite dizzy.
After Xiao Yan had shaken it for a long time, it finally showed a reaction.
Seeing the human face right in front of it, the Man Faced Demon Spider's six intact eyes immediately burst with a fierce light.
Xiao Yan struck out another Empty Palm Force.
Man Faced Demon Spider: "..."
So, you woke me up just to hit me.
Playing around, are we?
Ning Rongrong, who had been waiting for a long time on the side, couldn't help but jump in anger, "It's already awake, why did you knock it out?"
"Who told it to wake up so suddenly? I wasn't ready," Xiao Yan said with a faint smile, continuing to shake the Man Faced Demon Spider.
He was, of course, not unprepared, but rather wanted to study how to make a Soul Bone explode.
