Chapter 559 The Temptation of the Nascent Soul Cultivaiton Technique

[END OF DREAM SCENE 2]

"Bang!" After hearing this announcement, the scene that Alex was watching quickly faded away, along with the pain inside his head. The nausea has lifted up too, allowing him to breathe another sigh of relief.

But even with this relief, Alex was not entirely relieved at all. He was instead more confused, which is expected given what he had just seen.

"What the-?" Just like the first dream scene, Alex found his awareness returning as the second dream scene ended. This allowed him to think properly once more, something that he is absolutely needing right now.

"That dream scene is almost similar to the first one. It did not do anything malicious to me, and instead it just showed me another cultivation technique.... What was it again? Nascent Soul Cultivation Technique? Why do I feel like this will be helpful to me instead?" Alex thought, with his body still reeling from the effects of the Dream Scene. "Hmm... am I just overthinking things?"

He seemed to be slightly intimidated by what had happened, although the lack of malicious side effects made him rethink things.

"The first dream scene showed me that something like an Essence Core can be created. Is this Essence Core... similar to Dao Core? And now, the second dream scene talks about a technique that can create Nascent Souls? Don’t tell me this Nascent Soul is similar to Dao Souls? If that is true, then maybe these memories are actually useful to me!"

*************

With Alex’s Immortal Cultivation way behind his other powers, Alex was inwardly tempted to try some techniques that can speed up his cultivation. He knew that if he just cultivates in the normal way, his Immortal Cultivation might take a little long time to upgrade.

Because of that, Alex was busy on finding a way to speed up his Immortal Cultivation for the past 2 months. But no matter what things he tried to do, he was unable to find a possible way to speed his cultivaiotn up.

Such kind blockage made Alex feel slightly disappointed, making him accept that his Immortal Cultivation will forever be slower than his other powers.

But then these foreign memories suddenly arrived, showing him that there is a possibility to speed up his cultivation!

"If my guess is right, this Essence Core Creation Technique and Nascent Soul Creation Technique are unique methods that allows an Immortal Cultivator to create Dao Cores and Dao Souls. And from the looks of it, anyone can do it as long as they know the method..." Alex thought to himself, with his mind turning slightly excited from his discovery. "Wait... don’t tell me that these memories were here in order to help me? And that these techniques were the ones that I actually need to use now? If this is true... then this is something notable!"

Alex’s excitement continued to increase at this point, something that even he has found hard to stop.

How can Alex not be excited? He was previously worried about speeding his cultivation up, and then these memories suddenly arrive, showing him the exact techniques that he needed!

If this can’t be called a fortunate encounter, then Alex was not sure what to call this!

But even though Alex had the inkling that these memories were here to help him, Alex forced himself to stop being optimistic, as he knew that sometimes, even the good things could be harmful. Who knows, this Nascent Soul Cultivation Technique might be just fake, and the memories were just baiting him to use it...

"Tsk, if my guess is right, the incoming 3rd Dream Scene might show me how the Nascent Soul Creation Technique works. Since the first 2 dream scenes showed the names of the methods, then the 3rd one will most definitely explain them." Alex mused as he felt his clear awareness slowing down again.

This slowing down was accompanied by the return of his head pain, along with the nausea.

As Alex started to feel these sensations again, he heard the hollow voice inside his mind, stating the words that he is actually eager to hear now.

[LOADING: DREAM SCENE 3]

"Hmm... this will be the final dream scene that I will watch today, so it will most likely show me the methodology of the technique. Now, it will just depend on me if I will train these methods or not...." Alex thought as his mind continued to slow down. He then mentally gritted his teeth, as his frustrations from earlier began to showcase themselves now. "Tsk, why do I have to be forced with these choices? Can’t I just learn things the normal way?"

"Tsk, I really hate being forced into things like this, especially if it’s my future on stake. Argh, if I can just get angry, then I will be raging now! But all that I can do now is just watch these foreign memories? This s***ks!" With Alex unable to extricate himself from his dream, all that he can do now is hope that the final Dream Scene that he will be watching will be a good one.

Because if it is, then this can be considered as a lucky break for him.

But if is not, then there will be a lot of problems coming on Alex in the future...

[DREAM SCENE 3 LOADING COMPLETE: INITATING PLAYTHROUGH]

"Sigh, I hope this will be good. Becasuse if it is not, then yay, my allies will be just as troubled as me..."

Just like what was mentioned in the book cover, the Nascent Soul Technique is a breathing technique that will help create a Nascent Soul inside a practitioner’s body!

But what is the thing that must be breathed in to create the Nascent Soul?

According to the manual, it can be the Essence of anything, as long as it conforms with the practitioner’s soul and insights.

This time, this Essence is not something that can be just found in one’s body. This Essence can be the Essence of Water, Essence of Space and many more.

The Nascent Soul Breathing Technique allows a practitioner to breathe in the Essence suitable with their current soul, and use this Essence to create a Nascent Soul!

For example:

If a practitioner was highly attuned to the fire Dao/Law, then he must breathe in the Essence of anything related to fire.

Continuous use of the Nascent Soul Breathing Technique will accumulate the Fire Essence inside the practitioner’s body, until there is enough Fire Essence.

This Fire Essence will then be used in the next step.

This next step consists of giving birth to a Nascent Soul from the breathed in Fire Essence!

There are processes recorded in the manual that will help the Fire Essence to turn into a Fire Nascent Soul.

These processes usually involve taking off a very small part of the practitioner’s original soul and planting it inside the breathed in Essence.

In the case of the example practitioner, he must tear off a very small part of his original soul and merge it with the Fire Essence.

This implanted soul will then greedily absorb the Fire Essence around it, increasing its size and power.

Once all the Fire Essence were absorbed, the implanted soul would have transformed already.

The power provided by the Fire Essence will help the implanted soul recover, turning it from just a piece of soul into a clone of the original soul!

All the Fire Essence that it absorbed will also give the implanted soul fire-related attributes!

This clone of the original soul with fire-related attributes is the final product, the Fire Nascent Soul!

From this example, one can already realize why a practitioner must only breathe in the Essence of things that conform to their souls and insights.

If a practitioner who practices Water Dao/Law breathes in Fire Essence and implants a part of his soul into that Fire Essence, the poor practitioner will just be hit by a backlash.

It was because the Water Dao/Law that the said practitioner practiced will be engraved in his original soul, making his soul very amicable to water-related essence only.

So, when a torn-off portion of this water-amicable soul was brought in contact with the Fire Essence, the only logical end will be the destruction of the implanted soul!

This example just shows that there will always be a limitation to each and every practitioner who practices the Nascent Soul Breathing Technique!

And that limitation is that usually, anyone who practices the Nascent Soul Breathing Technique will only be able to create one Nascent Soul, as they only have one Dao/Law that they can practice in their whole lives.

But of course, there are extreme exceptions in this rule.

Person 5 is a good example of that.

Person 5 is a [Redacted] Hydra, and her unique ability is that she can comprehend as many Daos and Laws that she wants depending on the amount of the heads she has!

Since Person 5 will grow one head for each Stage she steps in, by the time she steps in the Third Stage she will have three heads, equating to three Daos or Laws!

That means that Person 5 can create 3 Nascent Souls with the Nascent Soul Breathing Technique, as her soul can be amicable to the three types of Essences represented by the Daos or Laws that she comprehended!

And of course, one must not forget Person 4 too.

With her evolution as the [Redacted] Divine Beast, Person 4’s soul was amicable to anything related to the concept of duality!

Ice-Fire, Space-Time, Life-Death and many more! As long as its duality, Person 4’s soul will be comfortable with it!

This means that Person 4 can create as many Nascent Souls that she wants depending on the amount of the Duality Concepts that she currently comprehended!

Right now, Person 4 had already comprehended the Duality Concepts of Male-Female, Ice-Fire, Life-Death, Space-Time, and Destruction-Creation.

This means that right now, Person 4 can create 5 Nascent Souls!

And what makes it more mind-numbing was that as long as Person 4 comprehends more Duality Concepts while she is in Third Stage, she can use these newly comprehended Duality Concepts to create more Nascent Souls!

This means that at the peak of Third Stage, Person 4 can still have more than 5 Nascent Souls in her arsenal!

But for all of this to be possible, Person 4 must survive the process of tearing parts from her very own soul.

Tearing off parts from the original soul was after all, the most dangerous part of the Nascent Soul Breathing Technique!

*************

The soul is a vital part of the practitioner’s body and if the soul was greatly damaged, it will bring massive detriments to the poor practitioner.

What was worse was that if the injury on the soul was too much, the practitioner might also die!

This is the risk being undertaken by anyone who practices the Nascent Soul Breathing Technique.

By actually taking off a part of their original soul, they risk injury on their soul.

The good thing was that as long as the portion of the soul removed was small and that the way it was removed was precise, the original soul will only suffer very minor injuries.

But if a practitioner can create 2 or more Nascent Souls, they could not just make 2 Nascent Souls at the same time.

After all, creating 2 Nascent Souls will mean that the practitioner will have to tear off parts of his soul twice!

If the practitioner wanted to create the 2nd Nascent Soul, he must let his soul recover first from the injuries of creating the 1st Nascent Soul.

Only when the original soul has recovered that the practitioner can create his 2nd Nascent Soul.

So in Person 4’s case, she could not just create all 5 Nascent Souls at her whim. She can only create 1 for now, and she had to let her soul recover every time she wanted to create one more-
