In the Eastern River Prefecture, Xu Yan was teaching his father and Pharmacist Pan swordsmanship, which included the basic Descending Dragon Palm Techniques, and incidentally also imparting them to the sworn guards of his home.
However, the swordsmanship practiced by the guards was a different set.
Nor did they learn the Descending Dragon Palm Technique, but another palm technique.
For Xu Yan, who had reached the Innate Realm and gained insight into the Sword Dao and the essence of Descending Dragon Palm, having also studied the Inner Realm Cultivation Techniques, general martial skills were easily grasped by him.
Furthermore, all the guards had martial arts training, and they were well-versed in martial arts; it was only a matter of how to apply their martial vitality to these martial skills.
So that these martial skills could transcend the mundane realm.
For Xu Yan, this presented little difficulty.
