The exact same martial technique yielded different levels of mastery and comprehension for every single person who practiced it.
Everyone knew this; it was considered common sense.
Yet this variance shouldn't have been so massive.
In that very instant, Gu Xin even doubted whether Li Yuan was actually using Wiping Blade.
Relying on his Enlightenment to Perfection and Technique Self-Adaptation Talents, the martial techniques Li Yuan mastered were already on an entirely different level.
It was not merely a deeper understanding, but a complete transformation of the Wiping Blade martial technique so that it fully adapted to his own cultivation.
