Chapter 2006 The Two Techniques
Alex did not lack an offensive technique, whether it be for his Body, Qi, or Soul. His offensive strength was the highest it could possibly be.
He also didn’t see the need for any movement techniques as he could just teleport around instead of running.
In terms of defense, there was a significant lack compared to offense, but even then Alex thought there was something else he needed more so than defense.
He needed an escape technique.
That was the technique Alex realized that he needed more so than anything else. He especially needed one that worked even when he was trapped and unable to use teleportation.
The next technique Alex needed was one for cultivation. He had the Five Yang Divine Path technique for Qi cultivation, so that was more than enough for now. As for his Body, there was the Mountain Crushing artifact.
Blood aura could only be improved through absorbing blood and Sword Intent could only be improved through training.
Spiritual energy, however, he had no way of improving. After thinking as much, Alex told the elder what it was that he needed.
Elder Shang was surprised Alex asked for such techniques. Considering how young he was and how early in his cultivation journey he was, she would’ve expected him to ask for something to improve his cultivation.
“Do you not need a cultivation technique?” she asked. “Whatever you bought outside should be garbage. You should get a good one for yourself.”
“I promise you, Elder, the one I have is a good one,” Alex said. “These are the ones I need instead.
The woman seemed to want to suggest some other techniques, but since these were his wishes, she did not complain.
“Let’s see. To improve your spiritual energy, there is a technique you can use along with a pill. It helps improve your spiritual energy significantly. It’s called the Spiritual Conjunction technique. Given how you are an alchemist that should be of good use to you.”
Alex was surprised to hear he could use a pill for this. He nodded as he devised how great a pill he could make. “Any spiritual pill or is there a recipe?” he asked.
“I believe any pill works, but there is one that has been developed to be most efficient with the technique. It’s called the Spirit Junction pill. The recipe should be in the skill book inside the library.”

“I believe any pill works, but there is one that has been developed to be most efficient with the technique. It’s called the Spirit Junction pill. The recipe should be in the skill book inside the library.”
Alex was more than happy with the first suggestion.
“And as for your escape technique, a teleportation talisman is usually the best means of escape. But if you truly want a technique, there are techniques that can help you teleport away from a dangerous situation. I can list a few, see which one you like.”
“No,” Alex said quickly. “No teleportation techniques.”
Elder Shang gave a weird look. “Why not?” she asked. Alex shook his head. “I need escape techniques for when teleportation is not possible. I have teleportation techniques otherwise.”
“Hmm,” the woman thought for a moment. She seemed to take her time with her consideration as Alex was made to wait for a while. After some deep thinking, she said, “If teleportation isn’t available, then what you need isn’t an escape technique. It’s a defensive technique.”
Alex was taken aback by those words. “I have a decent defensive technique though,” he said. “I do only need an escape technique for when I can not teleport out.”
“I understand. I’ve considered that,” the old woman said. “The thing is, in most of the cases, you will be able to teleport out. You remember what you did in the stairway to get rid of the pressure?”
Alex nodded. “Do that and the ban on your teleportation will lift, allowing you to teleport away,” she said.
Alex was a little surprised. “It can work like that?” he asked.
She nodded. “You should train yourself still, but with enough training, you will be able to do it.” freeweɓnøvel.com
Alex nodded.
“But…” the old woman continued. “There will be cases when you won’t be able to teleport away. When you do get in those situations, I can promise you that there will be no technique you could possibly use to escape.”
“So, in those cases, what you will truly need is a defensive technique. If you do think your defensive technique is on par with what we can offer, I have something in mind that can help you tremendously.”
Alex listened to her words intently. freewebnσvel.cѳm
“The technique is simply called the Spirit Reversal technique. It’s a technique that allows you to deny any Spirit or Creation that may be trying to affect your body. It even works against Domains.”
Alex felt a whiplash from that statement. “I’m sorry, but those are… aren’t those things only something that a Divine Realm cultivator has access to? Why should I have to worry about them as I am now? I won’t be able to protect myself either way.”
The old woman nodded. “You will most certainly die if you come up against a Divine realm cultivator. However, this technique can help you survive just that much longer.”
“Also, it’s not just the Divine realm cultivators, but also worldly aura that may affect others, using this technique, you can nullify all of them as well. It’s the best thing you can get as someone who will travel worlds searching for your family.”
The old woman was not thinking about the current Alex at all. She was thinking about the one that was much stronger than his current realm and how she could protect that one.
“It’s called the Spirit Reversal technique?” he asked. “Why just Spirit?” “Because the Spirit is the beginning of everything else.”
Alex nodded. “Spiritual Conjunction technique and the Spirit Reversal Technique,” he said and mulled over the two. “I will get those. Thank you, elder Shang.”
The old woman gave a satisfied nod. “Get those two. When you have the chance, you can get other techniques as well. They will take you some time though.”
Alex thanked the woman and entered the library with a small token the woman had handed him. He quickly searched through the library which was filled with thousands of incredible skill books and found the ones he was told.
He got the two books walked back to the elder in charge of the library and took them out. The two techniques were leased to him, and to his surprise, he had to return them a hundred years later.
Alex wondered if that was in any way the normal amount of time to learn a new technique. Surely not right?
“Let me take you to where you’ll be staying next.”
Elder Shang walked up to a teleportation formation on top of the same mountain and Alex walked up to it too. He was surprised to see a teleportation formation at all there.
“Why is there a teleportation formation here?” Alex asked the woman.
“The Blue Silk sect is too large. It will take you hours to go from one place to another, and it’s not very polite to fly over someone else’s mountain. So we have several teleportation formations to reach the far locations.”
“Wow!”
The old woman smiled seeing his reaction. “Are you ready?” she asked.
Alex nodded and the two of them teleported away.
