Uploading Cultivation Techniques

For the next few days, Bai Yue spent almost all his time in his villa, practicing with complete self-forgetfulness. While his Golden Finger was a major advantage, he knew that without hard work, he would never amount to anything.

He also met up with Luo Feng and Wei Wen twice, offering guidance on their training and teaching them a body-tempering technique he had summarized himself. On Earth, there was no systematic training method for transitioning from an ordinary person to a Quasi-Warrior; this was something Bai Yue had pieced together by constantly refining his knowledge through his Golden Finger. Since their last meal together, both of them had been training with much more focus, though it would take more than a day or two to see real results.

Creating a cultivation technique is an incredibly difficult task for most people. Usually, one must reach the pinnacle of what they have already learned, accumulate experience through constant life-and-death battles, and rely on occasional flashes of inspiration to modify and refine a technique until it becomes a mature manual.

Bai Yue, however, did not need to do this. Because of the nature of his Dao Fruit, whenever he wanted to create a technique, he could work toward his desired goal based on his existing knowledge. Combined with his enhanced comprehension, he could continuously accumulate progress until he obtained a complete technique.

For example, the body-tempering technique he taught Luo Feng and Wei Wen, as well as the Six Forms of Body Technique. As the name suggests, he created the latter based on the Six Powers from the anime One Piece, using the force-generating methods he had realized through his own training. The content might be different, but the final effect was nearly identical.

Because Earth lacked a complete heritage and had a short history of development, even the ancient civilization ruins only provided fragmented inheritances, causing various techniques to be limited to offensive applications. In the universe, however, these could also be applied to defense and speed.

The fourth level of World Destroyer that I deduced shouldn't be any worse than the original, Bai Yue thought to himself.

Yes, as mentioned before, he had only exchanged for the third level of World Destroyer from the House of Extremes, yet he had already mastered the fourth. This was not a contradiction; after all, he had a cheat, even if it could only exert a tiny bit of influence for now.

Over the past six months, due to the solidification effect the Dao Fruit had on his body, and as he continued to practice and use World Destroyer, inspiration had constantly piled up, allowing Bai Yue to gain many insights beyond the manuals themselves.

A month ago, after successfully mastering the third level of World Destroyer—which had cost him everything to exchange for—he had faced the dilemma of having no further techniques to practice.

On the House of Extremes, the internal website for warriors, the first four levels of World Destroyer cost 15 billion Huaxia Coins. Even at half price, it was 7.5 billion, and it required a four-star contribution rating. Not to mention the four-star requirement, even at half price, Bai Yue could only offer a bitter smile. Buying the first three levels had already exhausted all his savings, and that was only because the martial hall had provided him with significant subsidies due to his genius performance.

My progress in deducing the fifth level of World Destroyer has been slow these past few days. It seems I need to purchase some other manuals to draw parallels and accumulate different knowledge. After mastering the fourth level, Bai Yue had continued to deduce the fifth, but because his exposure to knowledge was limited, his progress was sluggish. Although he was still improving, he feared it would take a long time to succeed, so he had to find another way to speed things up.

Thinking about buying manuals, he stood up and walked to the first floor, entering the room where his computer was kept. He turned on the computer, found the House of Extremes website, and logged into his warrior account.

He clicked on the manual category, and a dazzling array of techniques greeted him. At the top was World Destroyer, which he practiced himself, followed by Nine Heavens Thunder Blade, along with their despair-inducing prices.

Instead of just thinking about buying manuals, I could completely upload the ones I created to sell for money, thought Bai Yue, who was feeling the sting of the prices.

According to the market trends on the site, the Six Forms of Body Technique he created each had their own strengths and should be welcomed by the vast majority of warriors. In particular, Iron Body and Moonwalk; Iron Body was a defensive secret technique that did not exist on Earth, and although limited by his own knowledge, it could still increase defensive strength by about four times. Moonwalk was even more impressive, allowing warriors below Planet Level to master flight—it was practically a life-saving divine skill.

He decided to act immediately, quickly organizing the techniques he had created into manuals. Since he usually uploaded them to his communication terminal anyway, organizing them was very convenient; he mostly just needed to do a final check.

It took over an hour to finish. As he prepared to upload them to the website backend, he thought for a moment and decided to organize the body-tempering technique as well, planning to upload them all together. As for the fourth level of World Destroyer he had deduced, he thought about it and decided against it.

This took another half hour. He opened the website backend and uploaded the seven techniques.

I can't just wait around; I should look at which manuals to buy first! Seeing that the status was already marked as "under review," he didn't wait, as he knew there wouldn't be feedback immediately.

Switching back to the manual page, Bai Yue slowly began to pick out the manuals he needed. Since I can't afford the expensive ones, I'll just pick some cheaper ones. Looking at his balance of only 900 million, Bai Yue sighed.

After some selection, he finally chose to purchase the first four levels of Nine Heavens Thunder Blade, costing 250 million Huaxia Coins—this was only possible because he had a two-star contribution rating. Together with the other seven relatively cheaper manuals, he spent a total of 620 million Huaxia Coins!

Looking at his account, which had shrunk by more than half, Bai Yue's mouth twitched. The income from over half a month of hard work was gone in minutes. This money really doesn't last long!

Meanwhile, in Hongning Base City, at the global headquarters of the House of Extremes.

In an office on the second floor of the ten-thousand-meter-long spaceship headquarters, a staff member knocked on the door. "Tap, tap, tap."

"Come in." Hearing the voice from inside, the staff member opened the door and reported, "Manager, a warrior from Jiangnan Base City just uploaded seven cultivation techniques."

"What? Seven? Which War God is it?" It was clear that the manager was also surprised. After all, it wasn't the early days of the website anymore, and warriors didn't upload techniques that frequently, let alone seven at once.

"It's not a War God. I checked his registration information; his name is Bai Yue, and he became a warrior half a year ago. His currently certified rank is Beginner Warlord, and he has already been recommended by Jiangnan Base City to join the Elite Training Camp," the staff member reported truthfully.

"Oh, a genius then!" The manager was even more surprised. He opened the computer in front of him, looked at the techniques uploaded to the backend, and randomly clicked on one—it was Moonwalk. After reading the opening description, the manager stood up from his chair instantly.

He continued to look at the descriptions of the seven techniques, and the manager in charge of the House of Extremes became even more excited. "If the descriptions are true, then the value is immense!"

"You may go now; I am going to report this to the Inspector immediately!" Dismissing his subordinate, the manager tidied up and headed to the office of the Inspector who was presiding over the headquarters' operations.

"Inspector Wang, this is the specific situation." The manager, who had rushed over, reported the matter to Inspector Wang, who was currently in charge of the headquarters.

"A genius! This is a good thing. Come with me to see the Head of Martial Hall; he should be interested." After hearing the subordinate's report and browsing through the seven techniques himself, he saw that Bai Yue had practiced World Destroyer and made his decision.

"The Head of Martial Hall!! Understood, Inspector." The manager was instantly thrilled; even working at headquarters, it was very difficult to see Hong.
