Someone may ask 'what are Gene technique and art' , well the techniques are manuals that helps to speed up the the process of Gene refining and strengthen the foundation of the Gene,body and mind so that they don't collapse during Gene evolution.
Normally once you get started on the Gene path, your Genes begin to refine themselves albeit at a very slow rate, that if compared to the use Gene techniques it will be akin to a horse in a race against a tortoise, there was no catching up.
While a Gene art are the combat and non-combat manuals that can be used along side the Gene techniques to bring out the full might of genetic Warriors and Mech Synchers, like sword and saber arts or telekinesis, mental perception, etc.
After Joel walked into the library, he was greeted by the sight of books that have off a soft glow.
Walking by some of the techniques and arts their names were written on the sides; [Nine Cloud Art], [Asura Hell Technique], [Celestial Body Technique], [Overlord Spear Art] were some of the few techniques and arts to be found on the first floor.
As he continued to stroll through the place he came to a stop in front of a certain technique that caught his attention [ Elemental Tempering Technique ], this technique was not really some powerful manual but one of the most basic body Tempering techniques on the first floor.
But he still decided to take it as it fulfilled one of the conditions of the technique he wanted to create.
[ Elemental Tempering Technique]
One of the the most basic technique used for Tempering the physique to the limit of each Gene stage (from Gene Page to Gene Gene Gene Squire). This technique utilizes the element(s) as a hammer to clear out the impurities in the body and also allow the body to make use of the element without the need for control over the element or the relevant concept.
Note: Cannot be used by Mech Synchers.
Even though this manual was only for the Gene Page and Gene Squire stages, it had a higher levels that could be accessed on the upper floors of the library, but the could only be redeemed by those with merit in the family.
The use of the elements to temper the physique and allow for the use of said element outside of the body was the reason for his choice, it must be known that as a Gene Page there is no way to actively make use of the elements outside the body to even make a simple fireball, while using this technique will even provide the user with basic immunity against the element used in tempering the body .
Even at the the Gene Squire stage the highest level of elemental power that one can use will not exceed 5 meters and that was with the help of a concept which were very hard to comprehend but with this Technique even at the Gene Page stage the can use their tempering element in a 1-2 meter range of themselves.
Of course even with such a technique does not mean absolute victory in battle as they are some techniques with singular high boost in strength, agility, physique, energy or mind in the world as compared to this manual's overall strengthening in body stats.
With a body tempering technique in hand he was left with finding an energy focused and mind based technique so that he could begin create his own original Gene technique because how can one be unique if the follow the footsteps of other.
He has always believed that to be great you have to charter your on course by standing on the shoulders of your ancestors and using their result to start anew.
As he went around the floor, many of the techniques and arts he saw had pleasing name without the wow effect, such as [ Vajra Idol ], [ Blank Slate ], [ Vanishing Tiger ], [ Wave Crushing Palm ], [ One Inch Devastation ], all of these manuals had high sounding name with no resounding effect. An example will be the [ One Inch Devastation ] which had the effect to make any part of the body longer, even the the third leg.
Finally after an hour of searching through thousands of books on 3 floors, Joel finally managed to find all the techniques and arts he needed to start the experimentation of creating his technique and art.
For the energy technique he went with [ Sun And Moon Technique ], this manual was responsible for the refining of energy in the Gene to strengthen, provide and replenish energy in the Body.
Along with the [Cosmic Mind Technique], that will be used to refine mind power to look like the cosmos making it very pure and flexibility in different situations, [9 Evolution Sword Art], this was a pure offensive sword art that is known for its extreme speed and sharpness when used in a battle and [Vanishing Cloud Art] which was a movement art that could be to increase the speed and flexibility of the body.
[Sun And Moon Technique]
With the Sun And Moon's energy as power this Technique equips the user with the ability to make use of opposing energy as facilitators in the energy refining process thereby making the energy refined tough and vigorous to be used in multiple situations
Note: This technique primarily uses the sun and moons' energy to obtain the highest effect.
[Cosmic Mind Technique]
When used the users mind power will be started and then reconstructed form the ground up to form a universe in the sea of consciousness that provide the warrior with a higher mind power than those of the same stage.
This technique when practiced to it's highest form can allow for one to be in complete control of their surroundings and make sure that that nothing escape their notice.
[9 Evolution Sword Art]
9 Evolution sword art makes use of sword in a way that the every move is stronger than the last, this set of moves transition from one move to the next as if they are evolving in to a higher form.
Note: This is a pure offensive technique therefore even using it to block an attack can lead to disruption of energy at best and broken bone at worst.
[Vanishing Cloud Art]
This movement art contains 7 stages with each stage increasing the speed of movement and flexibility by 30%, while every 3 stage provide an improvement of 100%.
