Path of Absolute Transcendence

Kai is now capable of seeing even minute details within a hundred meters, but he is not capable of doing this actively whenever he wants. It acts like a passive talent that is activated all the time, and because of his high soul level, he is capable of handling such information pressure.

With his training, Kai also got along with James, and they both used the Refining Tower. A month passed, and Kai finally got some very interesting information.

Kai learned about the existence of variant physiques. He is already aware of them because of his high level of fantasy knowledge from reading a lot of novels on earth, He has also researched the human physique for the past few years.

A variant physique is different from the normal human body, a person with a variant physique will have a natural affinity for elements and law. They also have high physical strength compared to normal people.

There are still a lot of advantages to a variant physique, but the development solely depends on the user.

There is a variant soul and different eyes that are similar to the variant physique. A variant soul gives the user an advantage in the soul path, and different eyes may be the strongest among all of them.

The different eyes give the user an unparalleled advantage in fighting, so it is considered the strongest of them all. The variant soul and physique only gave the user potential, not direct strength.

There is also another category of inherent bloodlines and inherent bones. They are not unique, as they can be acquired by doing a certain process, like how Kai obtained bloodline power during his metamorphosis process. The same goes for inherent bones, which can also be obtained.

The physique is divided into mystic, ancient, celestial, and origin grades. This ranking also goes for the soul, eyes, bloodline, and bones. There are countless variant bodies in mystic, ancient, and celestial grades, but there are only nine variant bodies in the origin grade of each category.

(A/N - variant body is a term that will be used for collectively saying all things.)

The origin grade is the source of all variant bodies, and the other grades are just mutations from the origin grade.

\'It seems I need to create my physique to overcome the limitations of my talent.\'. He also learned that the holy son of Slaughter Palace has a mystic-grade physique, just a mystic-grade physique had granted the holy son an 8-star talent.

\'How much will an origin-grade physique increase the potential of the user ?\'. It seems nine starts are not the limit of cultivation talent, it may be only among the common people.

Kai did not overthink the situation for now, he decided to train the [Nameless Scripture] for now. He already cultivated the basic footwork and basic sword techniques in the scripture. However, he did not cultivate any techniques in the scripture because he was not able to cultivate them in the past.

Kai did not want to cultivate the sword technique of the scripture because he wanted to develop his [Freedom Scripture]. He only wanted to cultivate the footwork since he did not find any technique that was better in the scripture pavilion of Slaughter Palace.

Phantom steps is the name of the technique that is recorded in the Nameless Scripture. This technique involves extreme speed to make phantom images to confuse the enemy.

To achieve such a result, Kai needs to apply the energy in the body to different types of meridians in the leg. The amount of energy is also different for each meridian, so a high amount of control over Qi is required to perform this technique.

Kai then found a secluded place a little far away from his room and started training. Kai was able to manipulate the Qi for the designated meridians, but he was not capable of sending the desired amount of energy to different meridians at the same time.

He started training again and again, and after doing this for a day, he decided to try actual running.

Kai positioned himself in an open position and tried using the phantom steps. Instead of becoming like a phantom, he ran straight towards the tree and hit it directly.

\'My nose hurt. What the hell with the sudden speed.\'. He was not able to control his body due to his sudden increase in speed, so he directly hit the tree.

The way he performed the technique is wrong; he needs to travel to the enemy instantly, like teleportation, and his body must leave behind a shadow that looks exactly like him. This is how the technique should be performed, but Kai only used the speed aspect of the technique.

\'It seems this technique will take a lot of time for me to learn.\' He continued to practice in the open space to perform the technique properly. Due to his training, a month had passed.

During this time, James also visited him four times to invite him to the Refining Tower. Kai also accepted the invitation since the fire element in the tower is very useful for his body, even though he is still not able to cultivate it in his body.

The fire element will only increase his defense by tempering the body.

Kai also cultivated the technique to minor success during this month. The cultivation technique mastery is classified into minor success, major accomplishment, and perfection.

He only achieved minor success during a month because of his learning talent, since it increased his comprehension by ten times; otherwise, the first step may take him ten months.
