Chapter 616 - Worth Of A Cultivation Technique

After spending most of the following day sleeping, Jason had regained his vigor, and he was able to start cultivating with a rested mind.

Because of that, he was able to evaluate his situation clearly, which in turn allowed him to determine that he should start learning how to cultivate the Balance of the Universe technique while sitting cross-legged.

There were several types of difficulties in front of him, with the harder ones allowing a higher cultivation speed, but Jason thought that the simplest method was already more than enough for him to use.

That was mostly because the more difficult cultivation stances demanded an extremely high amount of mana to be utilised at once, and Jason was not sure if his body could hold so much mana for now.

He was only at the 2nd Lique stage after all!

In the end, starting from the easiest and slowly advancing to the next, more difficult level of the Balance of the Universe cultivation technique was the best he could do.

As such, Jason began to practice the technique without seriously cultivating it for now, testing out all kinds of possibilities, restrictions he had and things he had to pay attention to!

Meanwhile, Petri, Artemis and Solaris were outside the soul world, with both Petri and Artemis were in their largest form to rest next to Jason.

This may be dangerous, but Jason cultivating alone was far riskier.

At least his three soulbonds could pay attention to the surroundings while he cultivated after sitting cross-legged.

An entire day passed in which Jason familiarised himself with the Balance of the Universe technique's first level before he finally began to cultivate.

With his own mana, he initiated the cultivation process, starting the complex circulation set of his mana, opening his pores while creating a strong suction force.

Only a moment later, Jason absorbed faint streams of mana from his surroundings that gradually increased.

Using the absorbed mana to continue with the mana circulation, he created an endless cycle of absorbing mana, circulating it through his body before it was annexed.

The annexed mana that was stored inside his mana core was slowly liquefied, without affecting his mana absorption.

This was the most important part of the cultivation technique he used.

Not only could he absorb huge streams of mana much more than what he could without a cultivation technique, but it was also possible to liquefy his mana at the same time.

Jason couldn't do that without the cultivation technique earlier because he hadn't learned how this was possible before.

Knowing it now was nice, but it took him quite a while before becoming proficient with the Balance of the Universe's technique!

The first level was already extremely difficult and complex despite being the simplest, but that only told Jason that he had a long way ahead of him before he could reach the peak.

By releasing his stigma and the Celestia aura without holding back, Jason could accelerate the entire cultivation process, only for his soulbonds' stigma to glow brightly next to his.

Jason had already noticed it a few times, but only now could he clearly distinguish between them. With several stigma that emitted the same glow, Jason and his soulbonds' could accelerate their energy circulation speed, energy output, and even mastery over their respective cultivation energy!

This was great, and something extremely helpful as it allowed him to liquefy 10 drops of mana every day, for the first few days.

After the 10th day of cultivating, he was able to almost double this amount because his proficiency with the cultivation had increased drastically, and after a total of 2 months Jason reached the highest proficiency of the first level.

Through this, he could liquefy 25 drops of mana every single day!

That was under the condition that he was in a fully focused state and cultivated for the entire day, which was something he was now able to do.

In the beginning, his mind had been preoccupied with the possibility of him being attacked by other beasts, but that didn't happen even once.

He found it to be weird, considering that his Celestia aura should pique the curiosity of some beasts.

However, even curious beasts were something he hadn't sensed a lot.

Not many beasts were roaming around freely through the entire field of stones; a fact that had made him feel both curious and slightly worried.

Fortunately, there were at least a handful of beasts, and by looking at their cultivation base, affinities, and other traits, Jason assumed that they were extremely strong, and rare to spot.

He had yet to come across beasts with double awakened cultivation veins, but hopefully, one of them could be found at the stone field.

After spending some time scouting for such beasts, he spotted a small fox that had awoken the path of Maest and Spiral. It was as sly as one expected from the folklore he had been told by his mother.

Nevertheless, the fox didn't attack him, and Jason even assumed that it was the reason for the small number of beasts around the area.

This was advantageous as it allowed him to cultivate properly, without being interrupted for a total of four months.

He would have loved to cultivate longer, but something interrupted him, making it impossible for Jason to continue with what he had planned.

After four months of tireless cultivation, he had liquefied a total of around 3500 mana drops. This increased his strength tremendously as each drop required three times the amount of mana a normal liquefied mana drop would require!

That alone was already enough to elevate his strength to the peak of the 10th Lique stage, but that was not everything that had happened.

While he cultivated tirelessly, Artemis, Petri, and Solaris increased their strength too.

However, as they couldn't cultivate in a fully focused state they were unable to reach a state similar to Jason.

Nevertheless, it was still enough for Artemis to liquefy a total of 720 mana drops in four months, while Petri was able to cultivate at an extremely fast pace too!

He had reached the 6th Lique stage with primordial energy, and thus was Jason's second strongest soulbond.

As for his strongest soulbond, it was Solaris, with strength that none of his other soulbonds could even come close to.

During the four months, everyone had cultivated, Solaris had enough time to compress its first solidified prismarine crystal, allowing it to reach the Prismar stage!

As such, Solaris had officially broken into the Prismar stage, increasing its flame's lethality several times!

There was a huge gap between beings at the Prismar stage and those at the Lique stage that led to the corresponding difference in one's combat prowess increasing several times over.

In the past, Jason's abyssal effect and other means to forcefully put a human at the Prismar stage to sleep had only been possible because said powerhouse had put his guard down.

Additionally, the powerhouse had solidified prismarine crystals that had been crudely manifested, preventing an efficient enhancement and future cultivation progress.

As such, despite having seemingly defeated someone at the Prismar stage, he was only a human, who hadn't cultivated with cultivation manuals, didn't practice any body refining technique, let alone learn a Terra martial art technique!

Because of that, even his combat prowess of around 15,000 drops of liquefied mana that was in fact one and a half solidified prismarine crystal didn't even graze the combat prowess of someone at the 1st threshold of the Prismar stage, with one solidified prismarine crystal!

Jason was aware of this, but there was no need for him to be worried because brute force was not everything he had!

There was still Solaris, his two other soulbonds with which he could form a fusion, his Emperor Eyes, and his Celestia bloodline!
