Lightning Dance

Lian Chen's hands trembled slightly as he carefully traced the intricate diagrams and the written instructions of the final Lightning Rush Technique.

Every stroke of the brush seemed to come alive as he committed the movement to memory, his mind fully focused on absorbing the essence of the techniques.

As Lian Chen delved deeper into the technique, Lian Chen's understanding grew and he could also sense the immense power contained in its flowing movement.

After committing the contents of the final book to memory, Lian Chen couldn't help but feel a mixture of excitement and frustration.

Lian Chen knew that he had obtained the completion of the "Lightning Rush Technique". But, he was also aware of his current limitations.

Looking at the intricate diagrams and the complex instructions, Lian Chen realized that he still lacked the strength and control necessary to fully use the potential of the technique.

Even the second part of the "Lightning Rush Technique", which Lian Chen had practiced, was not yet perfected.

"Oh?" Lian Chen saw that at the final page of the book, there are some words that are written on it.

Curiosity piqued, Lian Chen leaned in closer, his eyes scanning the mysterious inscription.

The words seemed to resonate with him, as if they had a significant meaning.

As Lian Chen gently blew away the dust that had settled on the final page, the words written on the page seemed to shine with newfound brilliance.

As Lian Chen whispered: "The one who has fully learned this technique shall be granted the power to rename it."

A surge of excitement travels through Lian Chen veins. The opportunity to bestow a new name upon the "Lightning Rush Technique" filled him with a sense of pride.

"I shall rename this technique…. Lightning Dance!"

As the new name "Lightning Dance" escaped from Lian Chen lips, a remarkable transformation took place within the Treasury Hall.

The atmosphere crackled with an electric energy, and the three books containing the "Lightning Rush Technique" suddenly burst into flames.

What added to the mystery was that despite the intensity of the flames, the nearby martial skill books remained unaffected.

Lian Chen watched in awe as the fire consumed the pages, leaving nothing but ashes in its wake.

As Lian Chen regained his composure, he couldn't help but mutter to himself in alarm, "Oh no! If Elder Xu were to discover that the three books of the 'Lightning Rush Technique' have been completely destroyed, I would surely find myself in deep trouble!"

However, to Lian Chen's dismay, it was already too late to salvage the situation, for the three books had been reduced to ashes, beyond any hope of recovery.

"Hmm... Looks like I'll have to explain everything to Elder Xu," Lian Chen muttered to himself as he made his way out of the Treasury Hall, preparing to inform Xu Tianyi about the unfortunate incident that had occurred inside.

But once Lian Chen was out of the Treasury Hall, there was no silhouette to be seen. Including Elder Hu, who was in-charge of giving pills away to disciples monthly.

"Hmm... It seems I'll have to wait until Elder Xu returns to inform him," Lian Chen mumbled to himself as he walked back to his courtyard, intending to continue his cultivation.

Unbeknownst to Lian Chen, there was a figure silently observing him from a distance as he walked home from the Treasury Hall. It was none other than Gong Xuanyan, the Sect Leader himself.

"Looks like he has fully committed the "Lightning Rush Technique" to memory…" Gong Xuanyan whispered as he looked up to the skies.
