Chapter 153: New Technique
[Exactly. The first thing you need to focus on is controlling the flow between your Dantians. You\'ll have to use Primal Harmony Physique as the base for your future cultivation as this is your highest-ranked physique. Its nature will have you balance the multiple Qi which will flow through your body as you cultivate more techniques in the future.]
Shen Yuan nodded to himself, \'That makes sense, the Primal Harmony Physique was all about balancing different types of energies.\'
"And what about other Dantians? Should I focus on them one by one, or channel Qi into all of them simultaneously?"
[If you try to channel Qi into them all at once, especially with a new technique, you\'ll end up in a far worse situation than merely feeling hollow. For now, focus on one dantian at a time. Start with the one in your lower abdomen and use that as the primary anchor. Once you have stabilized your second dantian then expand that. You can only cultivate one technique inside a Dantian.]
Shen Yuan rubbed his chin, already visualizing how the process would go and how he could improve it, "And what about the Purity physique? The Radiant Lotus Technique seems to emphasize internal purity quite a lot. How will that interact with my Purity Physique."
Yue Lan\'s thoughtful voice sounded from his lap,
[Your Purity Physique is a perfect match for the art\'s core principles. In fact, it will likely enhance the technique and upgrade its power to the next level. The only problem is that the Purity Physique might over-purify the radiant Qi, making its healing properties much stronger but at the cost of the offensive power.
You\'ll have to consciously leave some impurities within the Qi to balance its healing and destructive aspects.]
Shen Yuan raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "That matters not, I don\'t need this technique for fighting anyways, I only want to learn the healing art which can be quite useful to me in emergencies. And the process sounds complicated as well."
Yue Lan teased,
[Well, you\'re not exactly a normal cultivator. But you\'re right, no need to learn this technique for offensive when you have Primordial Vessel Cultivation Art, but I should remind you it\'s not an offensive art as well, it\'s purely for making the perfect vessel.
That\'s why it does not alter your Qi and the Qi stays in its purest form, otherwise learning other techniques would have been that much harder.]
Yue Lan paused, letting him think about this before continuing,
[Anyways, start by using Primal Harmony Physique to stabilize the Qi, then direct it through Purity Physique to refine it, and now there is no need to leave behind impurities. Once you\'ve done that, you can incorporate it into your Dantian.]
Shen Yuan tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of his chair, deep in thought, "And the False Chaos Physique? Should I leave that out for now? It seems like it could complicate things in the beginning."
[You don\'t need to worry about that physique, it is doing its work as we speak right now as well. That physique is one of the most useful physiques to you for now, only because of this can you even think about incorporating different cultivation techniques inside of you.]
Shen Yuan raised an eyebrow in surprise but didn\'t pursue the matter for now as he knew it wouldn\'t matter be relevant at the moment.
"So for now I have to do one Dantian at a time, I understand that. Anything else I need to look out for?" Shen Yuan nodded and asked.
[You will instinctively feel like spreading your Qi into all the dantians, don\'t fall for the trap otherwise the mild feeling of hollowness will intensify millions of times over. Other than that, your sub-cultivation techniques can\'t get to a higher level than Primordial Vessel Cultivation Art.]
Shen Yuan nodded his head, absorbing the information. He closed his eyes again, feeling the wind as he mentally prepared himself for the task ahead. "Looks like there is a lot of work for me to do. Well whatever, time is the one thing I\'m lacking right now with my system Time Dialation room."
[Don\'t get lazy now by relying on the Dual Cultivation Chambers. Anyways, Bing Rong will soon leave her seclusion, so be ready for a nice surprise.]
Shen Yuan raised an eyebrow and got a little excited, "Finally, I can meet up with her after so long, I\'m sure she will be surprised when she knows how much I have accomplished in the sect. Hehe, it will be fun."
He soon shook his head to clear any distracting thoughts, "Well, I will think about her when she comes out of seclusion, for now, I need to focus on cultivating this new technique. If I can bring my cultivation of the new technique to the same level as my main, then I can go out to play tomorrow."
Shen Yuan stood up from the chair and sat down on the mat in a meditative position. He took out the jade slip and started reading the contents as he had to alter the technique to suit a male cultivator as well.
"Hmm…so the main difference lies in the Yin and Yang energies of male and female cultivators. Due to the high level of Yin energy in female cultivators, this technique can cause harm to them due to its reliance on Radiant Qi. So they have made the technique in a way that it can be stored inside a female cultivator\'s Dantian but won\'t affect the cultivators negatively.
But a lot of energy is wasted due to this otherwise the technique would be even stronger." He commented after reading the contents of the entire jade slip.
"It\'s not hard to alter it, just need to readjust the pathways from where the Qi travels from." He spoke with a smile as he began redrawing the carvings on the jade slip, changing the technique to be suited for male disciples as well.
If an elder of the sect were present then they would be horrified to death from the sight in front of them. Someone dared to change their sect\'s legacy technique, and that someone was not an outsider but their own disciple.
Some of the ancestors would cough up blood just looking at it, seeing how such a young disciple dared to play with their heritage. It was not that the techniques were never altered, in fact, it\'s quite the opposite. Throughout history, quite a few Ancestors or Sect Leaders have altered the technique to improve it.
But none were as young as Shen Yuan. That alone was enough for Shen Yuan to be recorded in the annals of the sect\'s history.
But he thought about none of it and continued deriving the cultivation technique to make it suitable for himself.
