Chapter 899: Chapter 573: Beginning Training, Imprisoning Divine Circle, Eyesight Test 2

Just now, Elder Long clearly didn’t use a shred of Star Power, nor did he use Soul Power, relying solely on the strength of his wrist to loop the iron ring onto that puppet’s head.

Simply incredible.

Lu Lin could see the silhouettes of those puppets, not because of his own ability, but relying entirely on the perception of Eye-based Star Skill.

If he used his naked eye, he could barely see faint traces, struggling to keep up with those puppets.

Wanting to loop it onto the opponent would be exceedingly difficult.

But Elder Long, with just one motion, managed to loop it onto the opponent’s head.

"Well, the first one is successful. Next, I will loop it onto the puppet with a damaged right arm."

Elder Long continued speaking.

With a flick of his wrist, the iron ring in his hand flew out once again.

This time, Lu Lin widened his eyes and used the perception star skill to barely catch a glimpse of Elder Long’s technique.

But before he could clearly see the subsequent moves, he heard a clanging sound, and the iron ring accurately looped onto the head of the puppet with the damaged arm.

Next, Elder Long looped three more iron rings, and after hitting them all, he had these puppet targets stop.

"Elder Long, the technique you used just now was extremely profound."

Lu Lin sincerely praised, taking an iron ring from the shelf beside him to practice.

However, having only watched a few times, he found it quite difficult even to perform the entire movement, let alone throw it to hit a non-moving pillar, much less the fast-moving puppet targets. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Yesterday, he still thought of himself as a genius, yet today, Elder Long’s casually displayed "small trick" humbled him.

While speaking, Lu Lin felt a bit less confident.

But his actions caused Elder Long’s face to show a look of astonishment.

"Lu Lin, could you please repeat that action?"

Elder Long couldn’t believe it; this Imprisoning Divine Circle was a technique that Elder Long had cultivated and learned from a teacher for many years.

Performed solely relying on the body without the slightest use of Star Power or Soul Power.

Of course, if it were only this, the Imprisoning Divine Circle would possess no power whatsoever.

The true killing move lies in the Imprisoning Divine Circle itself.

The word "imprison" encapsulates the function of the Imprisoning Divine Circle completely.

The materials used for the Imprisoning Divine Circle are extremely precious, capable of sealing a martial artist’s Star Power and Soul Power to a certain extent.

In those years, Elder Long’s master had a set of Imprisoning Divine Circles, forged and optimized countless times, capable of effortlessly binding Star Emperor Peak Power.

Nonetheless, the Imprisoning Divine Circle seems simple to operate, yet is incredibly challenging.

During the earlier studies of this technique, Elder Long spent half a month just to memorize and perform these dozen movements.

However, Lu Lin here, after watching Elder Long perform it five times, managed to perform it entirely.

Is this what a genius is?

Elder Long felt a pang of bitterness in his heart.

Lu Lin didn’t know why Elder Long wanted him to perform it once more.

However, during the second practical performance, Lu Lin was more experienced, and these dozen movements became much smoother.

Elder Long was astounded by Lu Lin’s progress, almost unable to express his surprise.

Heir to knowledge.

Lu Lin, he was the heir to knowledge Elder Long had sought for countless years.

Such comprehension abilities, learning abilities, and imitation abilities are what countless martial arts masters seek yet rarely find in a peerless disciple.

Elder Long, having learned over a hundred weapon techniques, had cultivated each one to its peak.

On General Mountain, he had the nickname Weapon Master, not without cause.

Regardless of what unique attributes a weapon possessed, placed in Elder Long’s hands, he could discern its usage without much delay.

However, for Immprisoning Divine Circle, it had always been challenging for Elder Long to find a suitable disciple.

His hope was to find a disciple one day who could inherit the title of Weapon Master and further, become a Weapon Grandmaster.

Such a person was impossible to find.

Unexpectedly, he met Lu Lin.

To Elder Long, Lu Lin was no longer merely Lu Lin but represents future, hope, and inheritance.

"Lu Lin, let me ask you this, have you ever come into contact with this Imprisoning Divine Circle before?"

Elder Long asked seriously.

Although he knew in his heart that Lu Lin likely had not used this Imprisoning Divine Circle, he still wanted to confirm once more.

"Reporting to the teacher, I have not come into contact with the Imprisoning Divine Circle," Lu Lin replied earnestly, seeing Elder Long so serious.

"Good, very good, extremely good," Elder Long repeatedly expressed, the pride and relief on his face evident to anyone.

"Lu Lin, moving forward, I think the training plan I devised for you might need modifications... well, no, it needs to be completely overturned."

"Given your level of genius, the plan can never catch up with your rate of improvement."

"In the future, first follow me to learn the usage methods of these over four hundred weapons. Once learned, we will proceed to cultivation of the body."

"Hmm?"

Lu Lin hesitated.

He watched it five times before he barely learned these dozen actions of launching the Imprisoning Divine Circle, thinking Elder Long might call his talent dull; unexpectedly, Elder Long hailed him as a genius.

Could there be some misunderstanding with Elder Long?

Lu Lin’s abilities, perhaps considered decent within the Human Federation, might not be remarkable in the vast and enigmatic Longyuan World, abundant with countless cultivators and countless years of cultivation experience.

Yet unexpectedly, Elder Long placed such value on him.

"Elder Long, watching five times before learning these dozen moves, shouldn’t you be calling me foolish, so why...?" Lu Lin couldn’t resist asking.

"Foolish?"

"Haha, Lu Lin, you don’t know, back when the teacher was learning these dozen moves, it took him half a month just to match your first execution of the moves."

"These moves appear simple but require talent to achieve."

"Here, hold this Imprisoning Divine Circle and continue practicing a few more times."

"Once I think it’s suitable, you can start practicing the art of throwing."

Elder Long was full of joy.

Lu Lin, observing this, said no more, holding the Imprisoning Divine Circle in his hand, practicing the throwing technique repeatedly.

Once, twice, ten times, twenty times...

When Lu Lin cultivated up to a hundred times, the Imprisoning Divine Circle seemed to meld into his hand, continuously flashing white light, capable of morphing into various shapes and movements.

Such skill, if demonstrated in front of classmates at school during his schooling days as a class act of pencil spinning, would surely earn him widespread admiration.

Of course, even when spinning the Imprisoning Divine Circle, Lu Lin’s hundred rounds of cultivation resulted in rapid progress, much to Elder Long’s delight.

"Ok, Lu Lin, your foundational movements are more or less practiced; next, you can proceed to the art of throwing a circle."

"But before throwing a circle, I need to explain the principles of throwing a circle."

"The Imprisoning Divine Circle, its mastery lies entirely in your hands, eyes, and heart, these three parts."

"Being proficient with the movements is only the first step; next, you need to practice your eyesight."

"Only when you can see your opponent’s movements can you possibly throw the Imprisoning Divine Circle onto your opponent."

"Training eyesight is not only useful for learning the Imprisoning Divine Circle but is also crucial for cultivating any weapon in the future."

"Next, starting from the Shadow Drifting Puppets of Star King Level, we will proceed with training in the form of a game."

"Stay here while I prepare a bit."

Elder Long instructed.

Having immersed himself in martial arts cultivation for years, Elder Long had his unique methods for training vision.

Shortly, Elder Long returned.

"Now, let’s start the first step of vision training: color identification."

"Later, there will be one hundred Shadow Drifting Puppets, moving from here to here at Star King’s limit speed. You need to identify the color stickers on their chests and communicate them to me."

"These hundred puppets will have only five colors: pale yellow, pale green, pale blue, pale purple, and pale gray."

"Next, you need to report as yellow, green, blue, in sequence. If unable to discern the color of a puppet, report an empty word, noting how many are unclear and report that many empties. Remember the rules?"
