Chapter 1596 The Badges
"What else could it be?" Roan asked back. "You will receive a score for your teaching, a score for your physical condition, and a score for your cultivation progress. By the way, I recommend you to take a body cultivation technique if you want a good physical score."
The ones who knew what a body cultivation technique was were taken aback to hear that. They at least heard how hard they were to be cultivated. With that, it was natural that one of them eventually asked, "But, can we even cultivate them?"
Roan nodded in response. "You can. I"ve prepared the jade slips with the body cultivation techniques that I know. There are quite a few, actually. Also, I fixed all the flaws I could find in them, so they should be quite useful."
"What about all the pain? I heard one could even die because of it. Refining other materials into one"s body should be quite dangerous." Sure enough, that was what everyone who knew about body cultivation techniques was afraid of.
However, after Roan helped Luan with his breakthrough to First Grade Star Body, he understood that they needed something to alleviate that side effect. Fortunately for him, he had the Soul Gem Alchemy Workshop and a huge herb garden that had been taken care of by Celis. Roan worked on a pill that would give the same effect as Rean"s Light Element.
"Don"t worry. Our sect has something called the a.n.a.lgesic Pill. Once you take this pill, you"ll be able to break through into the next grade of your body cultivation technique without feeling much pain," Roan explained.
Rean"s mouth twitched after he heard that. It was the first time he heard about this pill from Roan. "He totally took that name from Earth."
"However, that doesn"t mean you will succeed," Roan warned. "This pill can only do two things. First, it won"t make the pain disappear. However, it will definitely reduce it by at least 90%. That should definitely be within the bearable range since there are people who can cultivate body cultivation techniques without it. Second, it"ll prevent permanent damage to your body."
Roan continued, "It means that you guys can still fail your breakthrough and do it all over again, including acquiring more of the same materials for your breakthrough."
No one found it to be a problem at all. Those who knew about body cultivation techniques were aware that successfully cultivating them would give a huge boost in strength. If Roan"s pill could indeed prevent death or permanent damage, then all of them were definitely willing to give it a try. Not to mention that the reduction in pain made it all the more worthwhile.
Roan, of course, did not release the Starlight Body Cultivation Technique. In the end, that thing was too overpowered. Compared to other techniques, it was twice as good at the very least. One must remember that no one was forced to stay in the sect forever. It would be a problem if someone decided to leave before starting to spread the Starlight Body Cultivation Technique.
The same went for the Immortal Cultivation Techniques. Those ones were also not included in the cultivation technique repository that Eliana built with the others. The cultivation techniques there were still top-notch, though. In fact, they were all at the level of Huring Sacred Land.
Rean had discussed it with Roan. Those techniques would be hidden from everyone at first. Only those who proved that they would stick with the sect from now on would receive them. Of course, that meant both the Starlight and Immortal Cultivation Techniques.
In this regard, the Soul Binding Contract would have no effect. Well, at least not later on. If they allowed these people to cultivate the Immortal Cultivation Techniques, some of them would definitely reach the Void Tempering Realm. The twins were already informed that once someone reached that level, they could get rid of the seal in their soul with their spatial powers. Everything had to be considered carefully. At the moment, other than the twins, only Luan had access to an Immortal-level Cultivation Technique and the Starlight Body Cultivation Technique.
Of course, the a.n.a.lgesic Pill was nothing like the one back from Earth. The herbs it used were based on which grade of body cultivation technique someone was trying to break through. For first grade, Bronze-level herbs were used. The second grade used Silver-level ones. Roan still hadn"t worked on it, but he was sure he would need Golden-level herbs to crate a pill capable of withstanding the pain and dangers of a breakthrough to a third grade body. Other than the twins and Luan, no one here had even started to cultivate body cultivation techniques, so there wasn"t a need to be in a hurry for a Golden-level a.n.a.lgesic Pill yet.
Roan could see the light in the eyes of those who knew what that pill meant to their cultivation paths. "Those who understand what it does can explain it to those who don"t know yet after we"re done here. Now, let"s go back to the previous topic, the overall score. The cultivation progress and knowledge level will obviously play their parts here. We haven"t decided yet, but depending on your overall scores, you will also have access to some special perks."
"The scores will be recorded automatically into your badges. If you send your Divine Sense inside, you will be able to check your score as long as you aren"t far away from the sect."
When Roan said that, Rean and Havek looked at the sect that was being built in the distance. There, they could see one single tower that stood tall at the very center. The tower itself was built above a giant building as well. That was projected to be the tallest construction in the entire Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. Well, at least until it increased in size during the next upgrade.
That was one of the very first buildings to be raised. As for its use, it was obviously Rean"s Communication System, which had been upgraded with Havek"s help.
Roan then took out a badge similar to everyone else"s. After that, everyone"s badges began to slightly tremble while releasing a tiny amount of Divine Energy that their owners couldn"t miss even if they wanted. "There"s also another use for your badges. Send your Divine Senses inside."
