Chapter 283: Chapter 177: Seventy Years of Enlightenment, the Terrifying Difficulty of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique (Second Update) _3
[When you exited your state of enlightenment, your heart felt a sense of loss.]
[You immediately glanced at the time, shocked. This had been the longest period of enlightenment you had ever experienced.]
[It lasted for seven days, equivalent to seventy years of regular cultivation!
[You began to comprehend the level of mastery you had achieved with the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique.]
[Unsurprisingly, you had cultivated the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique to the Minor Achievement level… just a hair’s breadth away from the Mahayana Level!]
[At the peak of Minor Achievement in the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique, you sensed danger more acutely, accurately capturing omens of fortune or misfortune regarding the development of events.]
[Coupled with your innate ability to seek benefits and avoid harm, you could almost foresee most dangers to yourself in advance and avoid them as early as possible.]
[If you were willing to expend cultivation, you could even observe others’ omens of fortune and misfortune, faintly glimpsing into mortal destinies.]
[However, the stronger the opponent, the more cultivation you’d need to expend…]
[Moreover, regarding the mastery of the Heavenly Secrets Shielding Technique, you could now securely shield your own destiny and fate, making it impossible for ordinary cultivators to observe your fate.]
[Under the cover of the Heavenly Secrets Shielding Technique, a layer of gray mist seemed to shroud you, avoiding most divinations.]
[But the Heavenly Secrets Shielding Technique wasn’t infallible. If the opponent’s divination skill surpassed yours, they might still sense some traces.]
Su Xing released a long sigh of relief, somewhat amazed within.
“Seven full days of enlightenment… equivalent to seventy years of ordinary cultivation, and yet I still couldn’t break through to the Mahayana Level in one go?” he thought incredulously.
The Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique, what kind of devilish difficulty was this?
“Including the over twenty years of cultivation I had done before… it’s nearly equivalent to cultivating the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique for over a hundred years!”
“Though my comprehension isn’t top-notch, it’s still considered above average… and it’s this difficult!”
Su Xing finally understood the weight of the phrase “Only those with exceptional comprehension can grasp it” mentioned in this secret technique.
“I wonder to what extent Damned Zong has cultivated the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique? Could he be ahead of me?” Su Xing questioned himself uncertainly.
Damned Zong, being able to master this secret technique alone, should have decent comprehension.
And considering he’s been cultivating for one to two thousand years…
He might indeed have more understanding than Su Xing.
Su Xing mused while rubbing his chin, “However, after seven days of enlightenment, I’m already close to the Mahayana Level in the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique…”
“This simulation still has over twenty years left, so I might try to break through to the Mahayana Level first?”
Su Xing decided to hold off on troubling Damned Zong for now.
If the simulation time was nearing its end and he still hadn’t reached the Mahayana Level in the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique, then he would go and try to kill Damned Zong forcefully.
Thinking this, Su Xing directed his gaze toward the simulation panel.
[Year Eight: After the rapid progress in the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique, you continued your diligent daily cultivation, hoping to reach the Mahayana Level soon.]
[Year Nine: Your mastery of the Sword Control Technique slightly improved, and your escape speed increased significantly.]
[Year Ten: On the day of Awakening of Insects, you ventured into a mountain range, attempting to collect Spring Dew Pure Water, curious to see how much you could gather in one go with your current strength.]
[Your Divine Sense swiftly enveloped the vast mountains.]
[As the first spring thunderclap resounded, you sensed the rainwater starting to fall.]
[Tens of thousands of raindrops fell, and their paths slowed down in your view.]
[Stepping on your flying sword, your silhouette moved… transforming into a blurred shadow, returning to your original spot in half a second.]
[Opening your palm, you saw nine sparkling drops of Spring Dew Pure Water, quietly suspended within the embrace of Spiritual Energy.]
[You were quite satisfied, as nine drops were more than ever before.]
[You intuitively felt that to collect all ten droplets, you might need to master the Sword Control Technique to Minor Achievement level.]
[Thus, you continued your diligent cultivation, and three years quickly passed…]
[Year Thirteen: Over the years, your escape speed had become incredibly fast, but your Sword Control Technique still hadn’t reached the Minor Achievement level.]
[On the day of Awakening of Insects, you attempted several times, but still collected only nine drops of Spring Dew Pure Water each time, knowing this was your current limit.]
[Year Fourteen: After years of hard cultivation, your mastery of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique saw a slight breakthrough, nearing the Perfection level.]
[At this time, fewer than ten years remained until the arrival of the monstrous beast. Knowing time was precious, you didn’t dare delay, cultivating even harder.]
[Another two years quickly passed…]
[Year Sixteen: You felt your mastery of the Sword Control Technique had become greatly refined, just a step away from Minor Achievement level.]
[At this point, with a single thought, you could decapitate an enemy thousands of miles away with your sword.]
[And your escape speed had increased by more than fifty percent compared to before.]
[Year Eighteen: Your Sword Control Technique remained stuck at the threshold of the Minor Achievement level…]
[But to your great surprise, after decades of arduous cultivation, your mastery of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique had naturally advanced to the Mahayana Level!]
[At the Mahayana Level in the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique, your ability to obscure your personal fortune was as effortless as breathing.]
[As for divining omens and glimpsing fate, it came as second nature…]
[With mastery over the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique, you had evaded hundreds of assassination and ambush attempts from Human Race traitors, leaving them empty-handed.]
[Now that the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique had reached the Mahayana level, you knew it was time to attempt to kill Damned Zong once more…]
