Darius Supreme
663 Chapter 663
After checking everyone's Spirit Roots, Darius collected the testing array and then clapped his hands once more. The maidbots in the surroundings then rushed over with trays once more, and on them were two books.
One was bound with a white cover and pulsed with spiritual energy and the other was bound with a golden cover and pulsed with sheer power.
[Qi Cultivation Technique - Manual
Durability: 200/200
Grade: Basic
Description: Contained within is the required knowledge to obtain the Qi Cultivation skill. Due to the high quality of the material and the penmanship, the success chance of learning the skill is increased by 100% while its effectiveness is increased by 500%.]
[Body Refinement Technique - Manual
Durability: 200/200
Grade: Basic
Description: Contained within is the required knowledge to obtain the Body Refinement skill. Due to the high quality of the material and the penmanship, the success chance of learning the skill is increased by 100% while its effectiveness is increased by 500%.]
The Branded Servants picked up the books and used the system to learn them while the other fellows had to open them and read. In just 30 seconds, they read from cover to cover of both books and had fully comprehended it.
Immediately, all their faces changed once they felt the effects of the skill. For the Branded Servants, they could directly see the details through the system while the others had a vague idea of what they had just been given.
[Qi Cultivation Technique - Level 1 Skill
Grade: Basic
Cost: None
Description: This is a common technique passed around on Pan for entry-level cultivators to use. Its original version had been refined over hundreds of millennia into pseudo-perfection, but it could not fully allow all beings to cultivate smoothly. This version has been perfected and can be used by anyone with a Spirit Root to achieve 100% efficiency of their Qi Cultivation instantly and even possibly upgrade it over time when mastered. Currently, this skill adds 1% efficiency to the cultivation of your Qi.]
[Body Refinement Technique - Level 1 Skill
Grade: Basic
Cost: None
Description: This is a common technique passed around on Pan for entry-level body refiners to use. Its original version had been refined over hundreds of millennia into pseudo-perfection, but it could not fully allow all beings to refine their bodies smoothly. This version has been perfected and can be used by anyone with a Spirit Root to achieve 100% efficiency of their Body Refinement instantly and even possibly upgrade it over time when mastered. Currently, this skill adds 1% efficiency to the refinement of your body.]
Of course, the difference between the Branded Servants and Darius, as well as the other subordinates, was that Darius and his fellows could use skill points to advance their skills or train normally while the others could only train normally.
"Now all of you have 7 days to reach the peak of Qi Condensation and Mortal Flesh realm. After 7 days, gather here again. Dismissed!": Darius commanded with a soft smile.
The rest filed away and went to their rooms to begin cultivating while Gunner remained and simply plopped down beside Darius and began pondering. Darius himself smiled and glanced at Gunner.
"Thinking about whether to invest skill points and cultivate or do it as it is and let it grow naturally?" Darius asked.
Gunner nodded. "Or even to do it first and then add skill points later to check the efficiency."
"Both are not bad, but there's no need. Now that we have organic growth, unless it's something that will take a lot of time or is already high level, so the progress will be slow, it's more efficient to stick to training." Darius advised.
Gunner thought about it and agreed. Anyway, skill points or training, it did not matter to him. He had been given a task and he would execute it to the best of his abilities. Failure was not in Gunner's dictionary.
Darius also remained in his seat and closed his eyes to begin cultivating.
One thing that must be said was that the Spirit Energy in this place was exceedingly barren. With the quality of Spirit Roots and the cultivation techniques they had, it should take but an hour to two to blaze through most of the stages for them.
However, the barrenness made it such that they would take a few days at most. A week was just the estimated time that it would take all the builderbots and critterbots to establish the foundation of their Sect.
Of course, they could use a transmuted quality Spirit Gathering Array, but Darius was saving that for later. Using a Spirit Gathering Array at the Qi Condensation stage was a bit extra.
Now that everyone had settled down to cultivate, it was time to talk about the stages of cultivation in Pan and how they equated to the general power system, or at least, how they transacted into Fallon's power system that we were familiar with.
Just like on Fallon, there was a singular power system split into two streams. The 'Physical/Material' sub-power system and the 'Magical/Spiritual' sub-power system.
For Fallon, this was split into 'Sparking', which was generating a special power that was like a superpower ability. It could have some similarities with magic, but they functioned just how you imagined superpowers would on a person.
Then there was 'Awakening', which was generating a connection with the world itself to use the elements in a more direct fashion. It worked just like how you'd expect Western wizards and mages to function.
To simplify, the difference between the two was like driving an automatic car and a manual car.
The other continents usually worked like this. Houto had the Samurai or Ninjas who were the physical side and Onmyoji or Shrine Priests who were the magical side. Kiel had the Beast Tamers who were the physical side and the Ice Lords who were the magical side.
Pokterr, at least the old Pokterr, had the Craftmasters who were the physical side and the Enchanters, who were the magical side. Ludo had the Turban Warriors on the Physical side and the Sand Masters on the magical side.
And so on.
The physical side for Pan were the Body Refiners and the magical side were the Qi Cultivators. While both sides had differences, they still both used Spirit Energy to further their power.
However, the two grew differently and this manifested itself in their sub-system, which was the realms of cultivation/body refining.
While the system of Amateur, Journeyman, Adept, Master, and Grandmaster applied to all of Faust and was integrated into the basic foundational laws, Vena was not so short-sighted to limit all other systems to this.
The Qi Cultivation system had 10 major realms, all split into varying sub-realms. They were;
Qi Condensation - level 1 to 10.
Foundation Establishment - level 11 to level 20.
Core Formation - level 21 to level 30.
Nascent Soul - level 31 to level 40.
Soul Formation - level 41 to level 50.
Nihility - level 51 to level 60.
Ascension - level 61 to level 70.
True Immortal - level 71 to level 80.
Immortal King- level 81 to level 90.
Immortal Emperor - level 91 to level 100.
So 2 of each of the realms were squeezed into the 5 major realms of Faust. Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment, for example, were considered Amateur level power while Core Formation and Nascent Soul were considered Journeyman level power.
The same went for Body Refinement which had its own realms. They were;
Mortal Flesh - level 1 to 10.
Body Foundation - level 11 to level 20.
Golden Body - level 21 to level 30.
Sarira - level 31 to level 40.
Nirvana - level 41 to level 50.
Soul Merging - level 51 to level 60.
Perfect Body - level 61 to level 70.
Immortal Body - level 71 to level 80.
Heavenly Body - level 81 to level 90.
Supreme Godly Body - level 91 to level 100.
One interesting thing about Pan's power system was the fact that one could practice both Body Refinement and Qi Cultivation as long as one had Spirit Roots and had the required techniques or methods.
On Fallon, you could either Spark or Awaken, not one or the other. The proof of this was Nicholas and Elijah who were mages as opposed to Shanks and Darla as well as Kiran who had sparked.
But now, everyone could do both. Of course, this was often ill-advised because it consumed twice the time and double the resources, making many people and forces refrain and even ban doing so.
Whatever the case, the fact was that Pan's system was truly intriguing, because Darius had done his research and from his findings - backed by what he knew from God Krona's library - there should be higher levels to peruse that were not limited by the laws of Faust.
That was the real reason Darius came here and also advocated for all his people to cultivate. He was running another large-scale experiment, to see whether he could break through the upper limit of what was known and find a new path!
