Chapter 14: The two core arts

Long Tao was shocked to find another two sets of arts in his mind. He now had a set of 5 skills that were of extraordinary origin.

It made him excited and enthusiastic, and at the same time, increased his caution. If even one of these arts were to be released to the outside world, it would create a massive blood bath.

He can't allow anyone to find out his secret; otherwise, his life will never be peaceful. Keeping his thoughts aside, Long Tao decided to verify the contents of the art.

..............................................................

"Crimson world scripture: The ancient core cultivation art of the crimson ancients. It is a highly coveted art among the upper heavens of this world due to its distinct property, which allows it to make the body capable of cultivating all types of elemental Qi or also called the Omni-elemental body."

"The cultivation of art's real benefit is known after one reaches the realm of Qi master, where they will start liquifying their Qi to have more affinity towards a primary element. Still, Crimson world art enables one to have all elements as their core type. "

.............................................................

Long Tao could easily understand why people would like covert such an art. If a cultivator has more number of core elements, he would not only be able to use them for attack and defense but also be able to merge different types of elements and create a new kind.

As Long Tao was cultivating the previous voice from the throne sounded again as it informed him that the Crimson world art was the first core art the Crimson ancients need to practice to gain the Omni-elemental body.

Only then can one practice the next set of arts of the Crimson ancients, which will open after one reaches the peak of the Qi master realm.

Long Tao contemplated for some time and then moved on to the next set of art he got.

"Origin avatar art: The technique which allows the user to create an avatar of themselves. The pre-requisite of training this art is for the practitioner to start cultivating it in the Qi child realm and have a powerful soul. The user will follow the instruction of this art to slicing his soul into several parts, each then taking the shape of an avatar of the original one."

"The avatars will all have the same conscious but have different souls. The benefits are increased comprehension speed and attack boost. But these avatars will now also act as several pure bodies of the same conscious."

"Even if one's original body is destroyed, the rest of the avatars will remain intact, and the part of the soul in the other entity will again be dispersed into the rest of the souls."

"One can also give commands for the destruction of any of the avatar bodies anytime. The difference with cultivating this and creating a separate avatar by using external material is the fact that these avatars will have all the properties of all the seven bodies."

"They have the same amount of potentials as all the avatars combined, unlike the creation of external avatars, where the potential is limited to the materials used."

......................................................

Long Tao was shocked upon hearing these words. What sort of incredible art is this? This like the art that Naruto cultivated in the world of Long Tao's previous life. Wouldn't it meant that his cultivation, improvement, and comprehension would be multiple times that of an ordinary cultivator?

Long Tao was getting more and more excited upon hearing it. Also, the art enlisted that one would be able to create an additional avatar for every new realm one enters in his cultivation.

But the talent of the cultivator present will be shown by the number of avatars they can create while first practicing the Origin avatar art.

............................................................

Long Tao had a conjecture that not only would he be able to comprehend the same art more efficiently, but he could also do multiple works at the same time, and all his avatars, including the original one, will gain the total experience of each other.

If that would be true, Long Tao didn't dare think how heaven-defying he might be able to become. He had a faint feeling with there being a connection between the Omnipotent soul art and the Origin avatar art.

He couldn't make out the difference, but he decided to try it out and see what the connection between both of them was.

Long Tao again started contemplating as to how the next step in his cultivation is going to be.

He decided first to verify the other three manuals present in his memories and see what he can find among them. After that, he decided to plan it out properly and progress into his path correctly.

"Let us begin my journey down the martial path."
