Chapter 319 Cultivation
[Ace POV],
[Unique Grade Cultivation Manual- Souless],
A set of seven sub-techniques that boost the mana of the practitioner.
Mana becomes more honed and purer the higher the degree of the sub-technique practised.
Each of the seven cultivation methods also strengthens and purifies the soul....….
*********
For some reason, the moment I thought about the cultivation manual that had been activated in my mind owing to contact with the rank 1 cultivation pill, a panel with information about the cultivation manual materialised in front of me
I seem to automatically become aware of anything that has a connection to any knowledge in my head as I come into contact with it, or rather, knowledgeable of it to the level of detail it has in my head.
This has now happened twice, not just once.
When I saw the black liquid that was ejected from my body while I was evolving, that was the first time.
My first encounter with the smelly black liquid occurred when I drank the dragon potion; I had no idea what it was at the time. However, after this knowledge was implanted in my brain as I evolved, all it took was a quick glance to identify the black liquid as the impurities in my body, and this was the same me who had been oblivious to the black liquid's existence just a few hours earlier.
The crucial information about the black liquid came to me then, and I became aware of it. This has already happened twice.
I have no prior experience of cultivation, but after coming into contact with it, I had an instantaneous awareness of the information and everything began to make sense.
Even though it seemed so surreal, I could still appreciate what was going on.
At least I wasn't in a position where I wanted to know something but was unable to do so, even if I had knowledge relating to that something in my head but was oblivious of it since I hadn't explored the knowledge there in its entirety.
What is cultivation, to begin with?
There were numerous solutions to this in my head's knowledge. Still, if I had to characterise cultivation in terms of how much I understood it after taking a cursory look at the relevant knowledge, I would define it as follows:
Cultivation refers to the process of improving one's spiritual and physical abilities through dedicated training and practice.
It involves the refinement and purification of mana and the cultivation of the soul, with practitioners progressing through a series of stages or realms.
Cultivation typically refers to the process of improving one's spiritual and physical abilities through dedicated training and practice.
The concept of cultivation in the knowledge in my head was often portrayed as a way to attain immortality, or at least an extremely long life, by tapping into the latent energy within oneself and the world around them.
According to the knowledge in my head, the aim of cultivation is often to attain immortality or an extremely long life, with martial arts and various forms of magic and mystical powers being intertwined with the practice.
The Unique Grade Cultivation Manual-Souless, in particular, is a set of seven sub-techniques that increase the practitioner's mana and purify their soul as they progress through the levels.
In a way, they all made sense and appeared to be reasonable.
At least from the perspective of a novelist, it made sense, but I wasn't concerned with the cultivation manual's grade, the primordial chronicle's justification for rating it unique, or even its specific method or sub-technique. My primary concern was if there was a real alternative to going out to battle monsters and gather ancient records in this way.
But when have things ever made true sense since magic entered my life? It didn't make sense for someone to get stronger by merely using a set of procedures.
Does turning a stone into gold or creating fire out of thin air make sense?
No! None of these were plausible or rational events, at least not by my old world standards.
In any case, I wasn't complaining about having a different way to gather primordial chronicles and level up, but this raised another query.
Was this circumstance only specific to me, or did everyone who evolved experience it similarly?
Was the insertion of job-related knowledge common for ranked species, or was it simply common for those with particularly special jobs?
I had no way of knowing this.
I am currently aware of the following job grades: common, rare, epic, legend, and unique.
Aside from common jobs, I wonder what kind of job is really special enough to experience what I'm going through right now.
Except I ask for Anna and Chris's experience when they were evolving because their jobs were both legendary and I believe this was already quite remarkable.
In addition, I had no means of knowing if everyone who evolved or just everyone who evolved with a pretty unique profession received cultivation knowledge.
Andrew Dawn could have easily answered this question because it was possible for his profession to be something remarkable to have these things if they were deemed common.
In any event, based on Andrew Dawn's performance, his job should be at least Epic grade, as Rare grade seems too little for it.
Given that I have his contact information, maybe I can still ask him about this, but I'm not sure if it's appropriate to do so without speaking to him directly.
Even if I wanted to utilise the contact system to ask him about all of these things, I'd have to go outside into the true world, which was not feasible at the time because I still had things to do, so in any case, my inquiries could not be answered at this time.
Maybe my teammates can give me some answers, but I don't even know where they are right now, let alone if they've evolved or not.
I simply had to practise patience in the end.
However, for the time being, anything related to cultivation must wait as I still need to make some pills.
'Now, with which one do I begin with?'
