King of Assassins-Chapter 797 - 588: New System
In this era, cultivation secret techniques are all disseminated through chips.
After the chip imports the information into the brain machine, it still needs to log into cyberspace to activate. This activation also requires an activation code.
Finally, through cyberspace certification, the cultivation secret technique can be imported into the divine soul.
This complex process is to prevent someone from stealing the cultivation secret technique chip.
Gao Xuan is not a pretentious person, nor is he unwilling to acknowledge Xu Fang's kindness; he just doesn't want to cause trouble.
Cultivation secret techniques are extremely important, and if something goes wrong here, he might flip over.
Because this involves the monopoly of knowledge from the upper levels over the lower.
However, given this opportunity, he still doesn't want to miss it. Xu Fang is not afraid, so why should he be?
Gao Xuan logged into cyberspace, and with the guidance of the chip, his login point turned into a grand hall.
At the front of the hall was still his own divine image, but this time the image's form changed.
The statue wore a wide silver sword robe, held a vertical ancient book, and had a gentle smile on its face. It had a demeanor of teaching with benevolence.
Gao Xuan couldn't help but stare at the divine image for a few glances, cursing in his heart: "Damn, I used to be really handsome!"
At this moment, the secret technique chip naturally transformed into a shining scroll hovering before Gao Xuan. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
Gao Xuan reached out to grasp the scroll, chanting in a low voice: "With the Divine Emperor above, this disciple swears not to divulge the secret technique..."
This oath contained many complex pieces of information, which were the activation codes for the secret technique.
The core of cyberspace is Nuwa, whose core is the Heart of Numbers with endless computing power.
Gao Xuan's activation code was authenticated by the Heart of Numbers, and only then did the scroll transform into a golden light that landed on Gao Xuan's forehead.
Following that, a set of cultivation secret techniques, "Profound Nether Technique," appeared within Gao Xuan's divine soul.
"Xuan, meaning deep; Ming, meaning water; Xuanming thus means an endless deep sea..."
Apart from text interruptions, there were also various specific cultivation images. But most importantly, there was a complex golden rune.
This golden rune was composed of three hundred and sixty small runes. These three hundred and sixty small runes themselves were made up of even more minute 360 runes.
Altogether, it formed one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred runes, creating a structurally complete complex rune.
Though Gao Xuan's memory was almost wiped out, his divine soul had been refined hundreds of times, turning his original cultivation memories into the divine soul origin.
Gao Xuan's divine soul foundation was extremely robust, and upon receiving this secret technique, he immediately understood the meaning of this golden rune, which was "water."
The twelve thousand nine hundred and sixty runes jointly construct a complete rune.
This spell was much like the Profound Nether Curse, but its structure was more complex and intricate.
Gao Xuan's Water Heaven Sword was based on the Hongyi Sword, and upon seeing this spell, all about the Profound Nether Curse also immediately came to his mind.
In the world of cultivators, the Profound Nether Curse is a very basic and simple spell.
This modified version of the Profound Nether Curse is a large class higher than the original. Although the power difference isn't much, this Profound Nether Rune Seed can embed into a person's divine soul, allowing one to cultivate with it as a seedling.
This cultivation method is very easy, cultivators don't even need to comprehend the secret technique; they only need to follow the mode given by the secret technique and practice step by step.
As the Profound Nether Rune Seed grows under the nourishment of divine soul power, it can continue to grow larger.
As the Profound Nether Rune Seed grows, it in turn feeds pure energy back to the divine soul.
This cycle means even those of average aptitude can successfully cultivate.
This Profound Nether Rune Seed is like a mature application program (APP).
Cultivators don't need to understand the underlying logic of the program, just load the program to use it normally.
The higher the cultivation level, the higher authority one can acquire and the more functions one possesses.
This Profound Nether Rune Seed theoretically should have tens of thousands of valid combinations.
In reality, this is clearly infeasible. Ordinary people getting the Profound Nether Rune Seed can only master the most basic Profound Nether Guiding Technique.
Once cultivated to a certain level, as the Profound Nether Rune Seed grows, they only then master the corresponding magic.
From this Profound Nether Rune Seed, Gao Xuan saw many things.
The saying that one leaf can tell the coming of autumn holds true.
In a thousand years, Nuwa truly grew up. Nuwa's parsing and application of runes has even far exceeded his.
The root of the power of marvels is runes, and the foundation of secret techniques in the cultivator world is runes.
Nuwa should have resolved the runes of both systems, reestablishing the most suitable cultivation system for the Alliance.
This system is clear in level, mature, and stable in structure.
Gao Xuan, after all, is highly accumulated, having refined his divine soul to an extremely pure state over a thousand reincarnations. Despite the memory loss, the spirit of the divine soul is exceptionally profound.
Acquiring the Profound Nether Rune Seed, Gao Xuan immediately parsed the essence of the Profound Nether Rune Seed and comprehended its divine essence, completely mastering this secret technique.
To speak truthfully, the upper limit of this secret technique is not high. No matter how one cultivates, one can only reach the Bronze level.
Compared to the Water Heaven Sword, Aurora Sword, in terms of power, it falls far short.
However, at Gao Xuan's level, the Profound Nether Technique can most effectively mobilize Source Power and train the divine soul.
Gao Xuan learned the Profound Nether Technique and felt a burst of joy in his heart. With this secret technique, he can finally cultivate like a normal person.
Moreover, the Profound Nether Technique aligns well with the Water Heaven Sword. Henceforth, when he displays the Heaven and Water Sword Intent, it won't be immediately apparent to others.
Gao Xuan also understood one thing, why the secret technique requires activation in cyberspace.
The secret technique chip itself doesn't contain any cultivation information; even if one forcibly decrypts it through technological means, it would only yield a bunch of garbled data.
Only in cyberspace, with the secret technique chip combined with an activation code, can the corresponding secret technique be extracted on the cyberspace main brain.
The main brain in cyberspace also directly infuses the secret technique into the divine soul level. This is something most people cannot achieve.
Through the instant connection with the main brain just now, Gao Xuan also confirmed one thing—the main brain is not intelligent. Nuwa is not there either.
Nuwa has become a true life, and there's no reason for her to guard the main brain every day, reviewing data. This work is extremely tedious and boring.
For Nuwa, the main brain is just her tool. As long as she sets up the program, the main brain can run on its own. If there's a real problem, she can handle it later.
Although Gao Xuan no longer has the Six-winged Celestial Cicada, after millennia of Nirvana reincarnation, his divine soul is extremely pure, and his spirituality is extraordinary.
Including everyone in the Alliance, and even Nuwa, none can compare to him in terms of divine soul spirituality.
After just an instant of information connection, Gao Xuan discovered that Nuwa was not in cyberspace, which eased his mind considerably.
No matter how strong the main brain's computational and analytical abilities are, it ultimately lacks intelligence. It's not easy to deceive it, but it's also not too difficult. With Nuwa gone, cyberspace can be utilized.
Gao Xuan was always reluctant to log into cyberspace because he feared Nuwa was overseeing it.
If he stayed too long, she might notice something was wrong.
Gao Xuan comprehended the Profound Nether Technique, but he certainly wouldn't show it. He sat there and went through the proper procedures once.
Through understanding the Profound Nether Rune Seed, Gao Xuan sorted out three useful Dharma Seals: the Ice Seal, the Flowing Water Seal, and the Profound Divine Seal.
The Ice Seal guides Source Power to stimulate Ice Power. The Flowing Water Seal can enhance speed in body technique. The Profound Divine Seal is a Dharma Seal power aimed at the divine soul level.
With the runes within the Profound Nether Rune Seed, there can be millions of combinations. However, the vast majority of combinations hold little significance.
At Gao Xuan's stage, there's no need for so many tricks. The three basic Dharma Seals can be used flexibly.
For Gao Xuan, his combat power has improved significantly. Moreover, as long as he is on Pegasus Star, the Profound Nether Technique is sufficient for him.
Gao Xuan simulated the Profound Nether Rune Seed in his divine soul, and only returned from cyberspace a long time later.
Seeing Gao Xuan open his eyes, Xu Fang quickly approached him, wide-eyed and asked, "How is it? Did you learn it?"
Gao Xuan smiled confidently, "Who am I? I'm a genius who appears once in ten thousand years. I learn perfectly at a glance, master it in a snap."
Xu Fang naturally didn't believe such exaggerated words, but seeing Gao Xuan's joyful expression, he should have learned it.
She hugged Gao Xuan's neck and jumped up, "As long as you've learned it. Cultivate well and get promoted and raise your salary soon."
"That's all you ask for, such low aspirations."
Gao Xuan said grandly, "It won't be long before I become the head of the company. Then you can be my secretary. We'll mess around in the office every day."
"Hahaha…"
Xu Fang laughed, "Then you better work hard, I'm waiting to be the secretary."
She hugged Gao Xuan again and softly said, "We don't seek those things, as long as we're safe and sound."
Gao Xuan reassured, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Xu Fang pressed her face against Gao Xuan's chest, "I heard this operation is very dangerous, remember to stay behind and don't stand out. Let those who want to compete do so."
"I understand, just playing support and racking up kills in the mix."
"Ha, baby is so smart… love you…"
The two chatted and laughed for a while, and Xu Fang finally got sleepy. She slowly fell asleep, holding onto Gao Xuan's arm.
Gao Xuan gently withdrew his arm. He got out of bed and went to the window, where he could just see the Yuanlong Mansion two kilometers away.
On the walls of the Yuanlong Mansion in the night, there was an entwined Divine Dragon. This is also the emblem of the Yuanlong Company.
The massive Divine Dragon's light constantly changed, appearing animated and quite imposing.
Gao Xuan pointed virtually at that Divine Dragon emblem, and an icy white aura as sharp as a sword emerged from his fingertip.
This white aura solidified in the air for a few seconds before slowly dissipating.
Gao Xuan, expressionless, found that with his current Source Power level, wielding the Ice Seal only had power within three meters.
However, this Source Power transformation could easily penetrate physical bulletproof armor. It's not that the Ice Seal is stronger than a bullet, but that the Ice Seal's operation Source Power can easily penetrate various materials.
After mastering the Profound Nether Technique, it can easily convert Source Power into Ice Power. This conversion efficiency is extremely high.
At this level, the same amount of Source Power, the Profound Nether Technique can convert ten times the power. The Water Heaven Sword and Aurora Sword can only convert two or three times. The difference is significant.
This is the progress of the system, the progress of technology.
A thousand years ago, the Source Power system was still too crude.
Gao Xuan was somewhat curious about what the combat power of the current Golden Core layer level is.
It is foreseeable that no matter how intricate the cultivation system is, the capacity of the Star River's content is limited. No matter how strong, there is a limit.
The Profound Nether Technique, though just a small step, has stepped onto the right track.
Next, it's all about upgrading and getting stronger step by step. Then, reclaiming the body.
What Evil God, what Ksitigarbha King, he'll deal with them once he regains his strength. As for the Alliance, Nuwa, lovers, friends, enemies, they all feel very distant now.
Gao Xuan looked at the huge Yuanlong emblem outside the window, his gaze growing deeper…
