After Ive cleaned up the ss in this room using my space bracelet, Sister Nuan asks the obvious question.
So, what did you get for all of this? I managed to keep them quiet and not p
Actually, let put up a surveillance barrier before we continue.
Pulling out another talisman, a blueish tinted do appears around us. As always, the exterior is opaque to those outside of it.
Okay, now we should be safe from prying eyes. Were you able to make sothing from the data?
Im quick to nod, now that we are basically alone.
Ive created a new cultivation thod from the information on that slip and also the one that I got my personal cultivation thod from.
I already told her everything about the many cultivation thods I recorded from when I had to choose my cultivation thod.
She takes a breath.
you actually did it. The elders were curious but thought it impossible in such a short ti, so I was able to convince them to move on.
Thats right. The thod is in the generic style, but as you might guess, its not a normal one.
I call it the Omnibus Cultivation System, as its what many cultivators have been looking for, a pure transition thod for converting cultivation bases. Converting the different types of cultivation bases into a neutral format, to then be turned into another. It also can convert techniques, work with normal body cultivation thods, and have a much larger baseline than other thods.
Her back straightens instantly at this.
Just a transition thod is a milestone that countless cultivation scholars have attempted to pass. Sothing that would push all the cultivation world forward.
To do that with no consequence and even absurd additional benefits is unthinkable for current cultivators.
But thats not everything about this thod.
Thats only on the surface, though. The real secrets of this thod are: first, it can be used with only a few specific adjustnts, by spirit beasts and demihumans alike; and second, that Ive package in most of the secret thods from my initial search my own cultivation thod into the OCS. Hidden deep within it, of course.
Letting others be able to draw out those thods abilities, if practiced in certain ways. Turning the general into a specialization.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
She throws a hand out to stop , before I can go into more detail about this. Her eyes darting from place to place, as she thinks.
Ah yeah. I guess this would be a lot to take in for any cultivator.
Also, seeing her flustered face is healing my taphorical ntal wounds from dying so many tis. It really shows how much she trusts , that she can show her emotions and thoughts freely.
It only takes a mont for her to figure what she wants to say.
How do you co up with these things? You dont have to answer that.
Im assuming its stable, so how far can a cultivator go with it?
Stability usually is an issue with new thods, but as she correctly guessed, that wont be a problem here.
If practiced correctly, it will go to Nascent Soul. To go past that realm, I need to continue collecting more data to refine the thod.
She shakes her head again, but seems to get used to the situation.
How about security? Are you planning sharing this with the sect?
She lobs an easy one over to .
Yeah, though Ill be sharing it within our contracted network first.
She gives a confused look and stops there.
Id actually suggest registering it with the sect first. That will prevent others from stealing or copying it.
No one should be able to steal it. I checked for that first, before deciding to keep it in the group. Its too complex and there are several insights in it that even geniuses would have trouble handling. Plus, there would be a lot of natural benefits to not sharing it with others for a few months or so.
But her next words make reconsider my position.
Right. Youre proficient in so many areas within the sect that I sotis take for granted that youre a foreigner.
In and around this sect, there are many underground groups that specialize in taking, copying, or stealing new thods and techniques. Sotis, they even improve on the thod itself after stealing it.
So, its natural here for anyone who creates a thod of any level to register it with the sect, causing them to back off, go through normal channels, or just copying it with several changes.
Hmm.
This wasnt part of the initial material I learned regarding the sect, but so of the other areas Ive read into had so references to related incidents.
She may be on to sothing with this copying aspect.
Being a general style cultivation thod, there are inspirations they could get from it to create their own. While unlikely, a true genius could create sothing from just watching the others practicing.
It may not be as good as ours, but it would certainly be enough to claim the title for the first transfer cultivation thod. And even if I was previously trying to sowhat keep our activities hidden, the ti has co to start showing off more, to hide the real secrets underneath.
Youre right. Theres the possibility they could learn sothing from it, so its better to get ahead of it.
She gives a sigh of relief.
Good. Glad to hear it checks out.
Thats a weird way to put it.
But I think I get it. She already knows about my scan, which can determine the best path forward. As my master, its probably a bit intimidating to be constantly corrected by the near perfect way.
that might cause so strain in my romantic relationships.
I should probably consciously practice not worrying about perfect scenarios or answers when doing interactions with the people I care about. Of course, Ill still check to see what the best answer is I just wont let it affect as much.
It should also give everyone I know a chance to grow and improve on their own. Carrying the whole team will cause a sub-conscious dependency that wouldnt be healthy.
Unknowing of my thoughts, Sister Nuan has already moved on to the next situation. Shes been tapping on the communication screen thats by the door. Suddenly, a panel pops open next to it, with a familiar item.
A jade slip, surprisingly with no markings, lays there. The purpose is obvious, but I can feel more than a small bit of excitent at the new step forward. After handing it to , Sister Nuan cos close to my side, wrapping her hand around mine tightly. Which is the sa one holding the jade slip, revealing her intentions.
Her qi pours into the slip and she doesnt say a word, already knowing that I can find the answer for what to do. As theres an expectation and need for this, I make an exception to my recent commitnt and just work through what my scan tells to do.
Holding the slip to my forehead, I rge both my and Nuans qi together to willingly open my mind to the slip. In a way that is like the illusion I experienced in the train cart; a space appears before .
Its my job to create the space and content for this slip.
Imdiately, I pour the thods and practice situations into the slip, bypassing many of the hurdles lower realm cultivation thod recorders face in getting their information onto it. All thanks to the scan.
After putting a few special touches on it, I can feel my excitent grow for the first person who will try to learn the thod.
Im going to view the thod with them, to see it from the users perspective. I can improve so aspects that I may have missed, despite doing a scan. Just like with the thod stealing concept.
Interrupting my thoughts are a few dull flashes from the now closed communication panel. The symbol shown on it is a carriage.
Sothing that represents the delivery of slaves to the hospital.
I can feel my lips draw into a line, as my mood drops in expectation of what I will see with this.
