With Cultivation Simulator in a Chaotic World-Chapter 174 - 172: Nine Lotus Longevity Technique, Sea Acception

Chapter 174: Chapter 172: Nine Lotus Longevity Technique, Sea Acception

"Exchange."

Excitement flashed in Jiang Ming’s eyes; the Nine Lotus Longevity Technique was not like the other cultivation techniques.

A golden light suddenly shone in Jiang Ming’s eyes, as if containing innumerable information.

Simulation Points rapidly decreased.

Jiang Ming exchanged for the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment Chapters of the Nine Lotus Longevity Technique, along with some insights from the Qi Refining Chapter to quickly get started.

As soon as Jiang Ming began cultivating the Nine Lotus Longevity Technique, he could sense the grandeur and magnificence of this technique.

It seemed to be on a completely different level compared to the Ice Flame Blazing Fire Technique, which appeared crude in the face of the Nine Lotus Longevity Technique.

The Nine Lotus Longevity Technique is originally the inherited technique of a Nascent Soul powerhouse; even its incomplete version, Nine Lotus Long Fire Technique, is one of the three great sect-defining techniques of the Longevity Pavilion, while the complete version is even more terrifying.

The Nine Lotus Longevity Technique is like a sky with one lotus.

The nine lotus contains nine different powers; even the Nine Lotus Long Fire Technique cannot reach even one-ninth of the Nine Lotus Longevity Technique.

It can incorporate cultivation techniques with nine different attribute powers based on its own foundation.

Ordinary cultivators can only cultivate techniques of one attribute, such as the Celestial Dust Sect’s technique being wood attribute, and the Cyan Yuan Sword Sect’s technique being sword attribute.

Some rare techniques can accommodate two or three powers at the same time, such as the Cyan Yuan Nine Swords, the core technique of the Cyan Yuan Sword Sect, which is wood attribute and sword attribute. Similarly, Zhu Chen’s creation, Ice Flame Blazing Fire Technique, contains both fire and ice attributes, but these attributes won’t change after cultivation.

But the Nine Lotus Longevity Technique is different; it can constantly "update and evolve," absorbing powers from other attribute techniques to strengthen its own force.

For instance, Jiang Ming’s Ice Flame Blazing Fire Technique could be integrated into the Nine Lotus Longevity Technique, becoming a part of it. The Nine Lotus Longevity Technique can, when deploying the Ice Flame Blazing Fire Technique, convert True Essence to temporarily become a strengthened version of the Ice Flame Blazing Fire Technique; if more powerful fire attribute techniques are encountered in the future, they can also be integrated into the Nine Lotus Longevity Technique to replace or fuse with the Ice Flame Blazing Fire Technique, enhancing it further.

The intent is to embody Sea Acception, Nine heavens and earth with nine lotuses, Ultimate Unity of Nines, achieving the Great Dao.

Initially, Ouyang Yun showed little reaction upon seeing this technique, only integrating several techniques that provided amplification in different aspects of Alchemy Technique.

Though the technique is high in intention, it has a fatal flaw.

That is being too eclectic. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

There is a saying, "wide but not refined". Everyone’s energy is limited; even geniuses must expend vast amounts of heart to study a top-level technique. Focusing on one path suffices, diverting attention to others leads to mediocrity.

The ideal state of the Nine Lotus Longevity Technique is: integration of nine top-level techniques.

This is fundamentally unrealistic; no cultivator could possibly have such energy, even a genius.

Except perhaps for mythical talents like the Seven-orifice Exquisite Heart, who might cultivate the Nine Lotus Longevity Technique to Great Success.

This has led the Nine Lotus Longevity Technique, though high in intention, for cultivators to generally seek compatible ordinary techniques for integration, rather than seeking other top-level techniques. Though distinctive, it’s thus limited and not too notable among the inheritances of Nascent Soul Transmission Envoys, counting as upper-middle class.

But it’s different for Jiang Ming.

He has multiple simulated lives, with increasing exposure to techniques in the future, Jiang Ming fully intends to incorporate the centuries and millennium’s worth of insights from the simulated lives into the Nine Lotus Longevity Technique.

Jiang Ming can seemingly envision how high the Nine Lotus Longevity Technique will ascend in the future.

Jiang Ming assimilated the information within his mind.

He exhaled a breath of turbid air, taking a special seated posture on the ground, Spiritual Qi fluctuating around him.

The surrounding Spiritual Qi increased in volume, faintly misting.

This attraction effect towards Spiritual Qi couldn’t be achieved by the Ice Flame Blazing Fire Technique.

The misted Spiritual Qi circulated around Jiang Ming, subtly forming a lotus seat, supporting him.

The True Essence belonging to the Ice Flame Blazing Fire Technique within Jiang Ming, repeatedly honed by several cultivation secret realms, continually transformed into deeper, purer True Essence.

The fire attribute within it was slowly being erased, making the True Essence impeccably clean, akin to True Essence cultivated with the Basic Breathing Technique at the onset, but with strength amplified over a hundredfold.

Jiang Ming slapped his storage bag, causing dozens of middle-grade Spirit Stones to scatter around him, while three pills flew into Jiang Ming’s mouth.

The medicinal power erupted in the Dantian, with surrounding spirit stones emitting densely concentrated Spiritual Qi.

"Boom——"

A sound reverberated solely in his mind.

The previously deepened True Essence strengthened again.

Ninth-Layer of Qi Refining! Breakthrough!

The next step is to continue accumulating True Essence until it can’t be accumulated anymore, explode the Dantian, condense Qi into liquid, establish the Immortal Foundation.

Jiang Ming silently recited the Ice Flame Blazing Fire Technique method in his heart, while his hands formed seals, gathering a white lotus.

Jiang Ming gazed at the white lotus, myriad insights into the Ice Flame Blazing Fire Technique flashing through his mind.

His consciousness also delved into the white lotus.

A special sensation transmitted into Jiang Ming’s consciousness, as if practicing the Ice Flame Blazing Fire Technique again within the body.

However, having cultivation experience made re-cultivating not difficult.

Even though the True Essence in his body hadn’t changed, Jiang Ming felt as though he had retrained the Ice Flame Blazing Fire Technique.

When Jiang Ming reopened his eyes, the white lotus had transformed into a radiant red and blue intertwining lotus wreathed in ice and fire.

Jiang Ming stood up, feeling his body.

The next instant, the abundant True Essence within him quickly transformed.

The icy blue flames erupted around Jiang Ming once more, wrapping him, presenting him as a king amidst the fire.

With a thought, the flames retreated swiftly, and the True Essence again transformed into pure, attribute-free True Essence.

"This feeling..." Jiang Ming gazed at his hands, and couldn’t help but smile.

This way, he may not need to worry about his Spirit Root attribute; Celestial Spirit Root is good, but it limits cultivation of techniques of other attributes.

If he becomes a Celestial Spirit Root in the future, Jiang Ming could cultivate a Celestial Spirit Root attribute technique specifically to enhance cultivation speed as his core technique, while other techniques could serve as combat techniques.

Thus, balancing each other.

"Very good... but..." Jiang Ming looked at his Spirit Points...
