Isn't this just cheating?

Chapter 27: enlightenment (1 of 2)



[Low grade enlightenment fruit: this fruit causes the user to enter a state of enlightenment once consumed. The duration and overall level are based on existing enlightenment chance. Due to its low quality the enlightenment is not very powerful]

"Oh hell yes. System, how much to make this permenent once I eat it?"

[3,000 exchange points.]

"Damn, I've only gained 180 after making those statuses permentent. I'm gonnna have to wait a week or so. Oh well, can't complane considering it's enlightenment."

9 days later Alex was sitting in his room, he had just finished cultivating for the day. 'Alright, finnaly time for enlightenment. System, once i gain eat the fruit please make its effect permenent.' Taking out the lower grade enlightenment fruit it looked like a small green apple with gold markings along its skin, as it was small enough for alex to eat it in one bite, he did just that. With a satisfying crunch Alex swallowed the fruit, closed his eyes, and waited. 'Huh, it didn't do much. What a sca-OHHHHHH!'

In an instant Alex could feel his mind begin to rework itself, reshaping its very from to better understand the world around him on a fundamental level. All the small complexity of his techniques, and spells, and more began to fade away like mist against the wind. Like a curtain had been pulled from his mind.

He started with his techniques, greater foundation creation, energy stockpile: tier, soul visualisation, mind creation, 108 divine meridian enhancement method, inner body method, even Adonis. Foundation creation was simple, just make what it does better, it was meant to increase his atunment to the world, thus increasing his talent, so just make that connection more powerfull. [Congratulations host for creating [world atunment: tier 2]]

Next, energy stockpile and his five energy cryistals, they where so inefficient, why did he have five cryistals and one old technique meant for just one crystal? First order of business, fuse all five cryistals into one cluster. Done, now, remake the technique to use the ome cluster instead of one crystal. [Congratulations host for making the [energy crystal cluster(growth)] and [energy condensation: tier 2]]

Next, soul visualisation. Update it to match his soul cultivation, make it so it enhances the constructs he had, the ocean, storm, sun and moon. Making them more 'real' and giving them substance. [Congratulations host on creating [soul construct: tier 2]]

Next, mind creation. It was long outdated considering his many minds at this point, he needed something that could connect and and control them all. [Congratulations host on creating [hive mind manipulation: tier 2]]

Next, 108 devine meridian enhancement method. Once again, outdated. His meridians where already being passively enhanced by his 81 strands of qi, and the enhancement method had been practically engraved on them over time. What he needed was somehting to help his bones aa they where tmeperd. [Congratulations hist on creating [207 devine bone tempering method: tier 2]]

Next, inner body method. Once again, outdated. He needed something that would alow his to overlap several meridians on top of each other so he could have room to add more meridians, in turn alowing him to multiply his meridian count past their limit once again. [Congratulations host on creating [one breath three purities: tier 2]]

Next, Adonis. It was made to make him more attractive. But it only worked on his outside aperance, that was too low level for him. He wanted it to add a characteristic to his qi and soul signature that was perceived as 'plesant and friendly' to those around him. [Congratulations host on creating [Adonis: tier 2]]

Next, his spells, the only ones he could effect with his curent knowlage where clean and repair. He simple enhanced their power. For more faster and more comprehensive cleaning and and repair. [Congratulations host on creating [clean: mortal 2] and [repair: mortal 2]]

That was all he could do for now, exiting his state of compelate focus Alex let out a breath he didn't know he was holding and groaned. "Gods, that realy took it out of me. I feel like I'm about to pass out." Upgrading a total of 8 difrent techniques and spells plus one item in a single sitting was very draining for alex at this stage. 'Let's see what my window looks like now.'

"Very nice. Stats are nice and high, almost compelatly tier 2 across the board, and making good progress in cultivation. Just a shame my window is getting so big. Oh well."

Alex had made the trait [evolving mind] earlier in the week and fused jt with the trials [evolving flesh] and [evolving soul] to create [evolving self]. And his new status [qi purification] was just the permenent effect of the wi purification pills, constenly purifying his qi. As his qi was made up of only element he could use, whenever an element he didn't have a circuit for was absorbed, it woud be used to strengthen the existing qi, thick meant he didn't have to wory about the status compleatly useing up his qi to enhance one time piece of qi.

His increase in spells was thanks to his advancement to qi absorbing, which alowed him to browse the sects scripture tower for what ever he wanted, curtsey of being the sect masters deciple.

He didn't find any hidden forgot super technique, not that he needed them, but he did find 5 that he liked, trace sensing, a simple traking spell. Storm ape fist, a CQC 'spell' that was closer to a technique based around useing lighting qi to empower the users arms, it also came with a fighting style which alex ignored compleatly.

Sword manipulation was self explanatory, it alowed him to use qi to control his weapons from afar, despite its name it worked on all weapons. And River sword was another 'spell' similar to storm ape fist which was based on coating the users wepon in flowing water qi to enhance its cutting power, it also came with a fighting style, this time alex payed attention to it but only to learn how it worked. Also like sword manipulation, it worked on any wepon so long as it had a sharp edge.
