For which I replied, "I can't teach Lu Xiaoran tomorrow, so we need to finish this today. Now send me information about all the other techniques; I don't have the whole day to chat."
The system followed my order and said, "Okay, Host, I will transfer all the remaining techniques to you."
"DING DISTRIBUTING SYSTEM REWARD."
"DISTRIBUTING ROCK TITAN BODY REFINING TECHNIQUE."
"DISTRIBUTING GHOST BODY SOUL REFINING TECHNIQUE."
"DISTRIBUTING THUNDER STRIKE PALM TECHNIQUE."
"DISTRIBUTING ARCH-WIZARD SPIRIT GATHERING MAGIC TECHNIQUE."
After the system announcement, a large amount of information flooded my mind, but I was ready for it.
I began to analyze the information. First, I differentiated the techniques based on their purposes. I selected the Rock Titan Body Refining Technique for improvement.
As the name suggests, this technique relies on the Rock Titan, which is an immortal-level beast, to visualize body refining. However, this approach isn't right. Body refining is more like bodybuilding or going to the gym in my old world. If someone wants to build a muscular body like a heavy bodybuilder, they have to work hard. Even then, they might not achieve the desired physique since it depends on various factors such as body type and genetics.
So, wanting to build a body like a Rock Titan is flawed because we are human. We need a technique that suits us best. I first eliminated the Rock Titan aspect from the technique and added other elements like air, water, fire, earth, and space. This way, it now involves five elements. Then, I programmed it to continuously transition between these five elements while maintaining balance.
Next, I submitted my finished product to the system, saying, "Hey, system, change this to replace the existing Rock Titan Body Technique."
The system began its process, saying, "Okay, Host, I will start the analysis."
"DING ANALYZING AN UNKNOWN TECHNIQUE."
"ANALYSIS PROCESS 47%."
"ANALYSIS PROCESS 89%."
"ANALYSIS PROCESS 100%."
"ANALYSIS PROCESS COMPLETED, STATUS OF TECHNIQUE."
"Name: Chaos Titan Body Refining Technique."
"Grade: unknown."
Not surprised by the result, I moved on to the next technique. For the second one, I chose the Thunder Strike Palm Technique.
This technique is easy to understand. It simply imposes the law of thunder on a palm strike, which is straightforward and effective. To make it more efficient, I added other elements. I also incorporated different types of attacks like punching and kicking. Essentially, I turned it into a martial art focused on hand-to-hand combat.
After completing my work, I submitted it to the system for analysis.
"DING ANALYZING UNKNOWN TECHNIQUE."
"ANALYSIS PROCESS COMPLETED."
"Name: Omni Element Fighting Technique."
"Grade: unknown."
Next, I selected the Arch-Wizard Spirit Gathering Magic Technique. This technique is both simple and complex. It focuses on the magic system, functioning to gather and filter spiritual energy from the environment. It also has benefits like helping practitioners circulate this energy in their bodies. This, in turn, aids beginners in consolidating their magic circles. Even those who haven't built their magic circles yet may find it easier to do so. This is just one of the main benefits. Other advantages include giving users slight control over environmental spiritual energy that strengthens in later cultivation stages.
However, it does have flaws. If someone isolates or disrupts the flow of spiritual energy in the environment, the user may struggle since all techniques rely on this energy. I needed to create a technique that doesn't depend on environmental spiritual energy and can generate energy from nothing. While creating something from nothing is impossible, I referred to nuclear energy. Just like matter decays to form energy, I will apply this concept. Using nuclear fission, this technique will produce energy at a very low level, primarily on a nanoscale, to prevent it from going out of control. To manage it, I will use a simple fission process. If anything goes wrong, we just need to wait for the fuel to exhaust for it to stop.
For fuel, instead of using radioactive metals, this technique will utilize particles of spirit energy present in the surrounding matter. After getting everything set, I instructed the system to analyze it.
"DING ANALYZING UNKNOWN TECHNIQUE."
"ANALYSIS PROCESS COMPLETED."
"Name: Nuclear Spirit Energy Gathering Technique."
"Grade: unknown."
Finally, I moved on to the last technique, the Ghost Body Soul Refining Technique. From my understanding, the soul is immortal and unchangeable, so how can we cultivate it? The answer is that the soul I know and the soul recognized in this world are different. For reference, let's call the immortal soul the life seed, which doesn't change. The soul that this world cultivates acts like an extension. For example, you have a fixed amount of land that you can't change, but you can build a multistory building on it to maximize use.
This technique focuses on strengthening the soul in both attack and defense, similar to body cultivation. I amplified its function to the best of my knowledge and submitted it to the system.
"DING ANALYZING UNKNOWN TECHNIQUE."
"ANALYSIS PROCESS COMPLETED."
"Name: Abyss Soul Refining Technique."
"Grade: unknown."
With everything finished, the last technique had an odd name, but that wasn't my main concern. I focused on my surroundings and noticed that night had fallen, and the moon was high in the sky.
Not far from me, Roman had built a makeshift mud house and finished the pond. He stood at the gate of the house, staring at a nearby tree. Looking at the tree, I saw Lu Xiaoran sitting in its shade, now fast asleep in the same position. This boy, sigh! I realized that even though night had come, he hadn't moved to sleep elsewhere because it was my last order before I focused on improving techniques.
I crawled toward him and gently lifted him with my tail before moving him to Roman. Once I reached him, I said, "Take him to bed and don't wake him up. He is tired. And you should also sleep."
After dropping him off, I climbed a tree and closed my eyes. I need a good sleep to feel energetic for my first class the next day.
