Chapter 66 - Learning Archery, Issues Arise! (2/2)
He believed, at peak strength, he could kill a group of initial-Origin Core Cultivators with a single arrow.
However, the bow's resistance wasn't the only issue. It was the accumulation of weight and power. Currently, his cultivation was at the peak-Essence Formation Realm, so to accumulate enough weight and power required too much time to be effective in practical battle. If it wasn't for his foundational realms — Dantian Refinement & Pathway Expansion — being at the peak-stage, it's unlikely for him to be able to even reach peak power.
If he had a higher cultivation, he could reach peak power quicker. He couldn't help but sigh.
Tao looked back at the commotion, seeing Yan Zaizen have issues people could only dream about, he couldn't help but chuckle. ”You know, to solve your problem, just increase your qi-cultivation.” He couldn't help but remark casually. He then added, ”Or use Pinaka, didn't she say you wouldn't have this issue with her?”
Pinaka was a spirit-rank bow that could produce arrows from essence in the surroundings at incomprehensible speeds, solidify it to a crystal state, and thus there would be a lot less strain as its resilience would be top-notch. However, The Archery of Pralaya required qi to increase the draw weight of the bow in accordance with the conceptual law as well as into the arrow for maximum speed and power. Even with Pinaka, he still would be slow due to his lackluster qi cultivation base.
This was an aspect of a majority of laws and why qi cultivation was the most effective way to bring out its strength. Laws originate from the heavens, and the world within the heavens produces essence, to cultivate qi, you convert this essence into your own for usage. Due to this, the energy source that's most efficient and effective with laws was qi.
This was true for all laws. However, laws like the Unyielding Flame of Life that consumes a source to produce another force or any type of flame-based law, wouldn't have this particular weakness. They're capable of siphoning from all sources of its wielder's energy, including vital energy, and producing an equal effect regardless.
Dejected, Yan Zaizen stored away the near-collapsed bow and made way towards the helm. ”I know. However, the Ying Clan's resources are finite. With powering the skyship, we don't have much essence left. A majority of its wealth are items, armaments, or raw materials which aren't beneficial for cultivation.” He stated, detailing his dilemma.
The Ying Clan's resources were abundant but put into use for qi cultivation, they weren't sufficient after the skyship and Tao's full recovery. ”We need to sell off some of these materials for liquid essence.” Yan Zaizen said with a hint of impatience. Ever since he realized that his qi cultivation base was his issue, he couldn't help but feel irritated.
Tao chuckled, ”Xiāo City is only a day away. We'll be able to unload your materials for essence and buy some pills for cultivation as well. Not to mention, it has a spatial platform we could use.”
Xiāo City was similar to Sky Titan City of the Earthly Titan Territory, it was a hotpot of many different forces but the most notable difference was that it focused on alchemy, armaments, and essence exchange. It was the most suitable location for purchasing a variety of pills, elixirs, or essence. In the entire Grux Country, Xiāo City was the capital for cultivation purchases by the upper-echelon.
It's even rumored that it has a True Essence Cultivator by the name of Xiāo that governs the city. It's due to this that the city is incomparable to Sky Titan City. Earthly Titan Sect may be a first-tier force, but if you asked if they had a True Essence cultivator, they would have none. Only Imperial-tier forces would have True Essence Realm experts that neared four or five.
It was due to this that Tao felt quite relaxed after knowing Yan Zaizen's soul cultivation. When Yan Zaizen was at the Initial Aurora Soul Realm, he was a powerhouse of the entire continent. Now, his soul cultivation reached the Advanced Aurora Soul Realm, essentially making him a peak power among the entire continent. What should he be wary of? Not to mention, Yan Zaizen had his own dao!
Who did he have to fear?! They could walk sideways and everyone could only applause.
