"Wow Alma, you really was not joking, you plan to incorporate everything at your disposal. At this point I'll have two sets of Tasks and Trial" said Horo while rolling his eyes.
"It's for the best. Don't forget I can feel what you feel and know what you know, I can feel that deep fear you have of losing the ones you care about the most. I don't blame you father I've been with you through it all and even though the little emotions I feel now aren't as intense as yours, I feel your pain vividly. Your goals are my goals and my power is your power." Alma spoke with a tone different from the usual monotonous tone one she used.
Horo could feel the spirituality that now existed inside of her.
He then said " Well let's get to work, show me the Body Cultivation method.
[ Sorbathane Body ]
This is a very basic body cultivation technique created by Alma, your Soul Module, deduced from Knowledge she has on frequencies, vibrational forces and a special material called "Sorbathane", that was the greatest shock absorbing and vibration dampening material on earth. She also incorporated the effect of a technique that allows the characteristics of any energy to be imbued into a body part.
There is five levels to the technique bones, skin, organs, flesh, and lastly the True Sorbathane Body. The order of body refinement doesn't matter, but all parts must be achieved before cultivating the last level. Success of last level comes with a special technique.
After reviewing the technique's info and the circulation method, Horo finally began with cultivating not energy but the body as this was the first step for any cultivator.
He began circulating the method, but instead of using the surrounding mana or spirit mana he used his negative energies he was told to do by Alma. Most of his negative energy resided in the Tree of Tragedy, but the rest was in his Traits and Soul Idol and he could use all of it at will.
Alma told him to start with bones since his bones were pretty much comprised of negative energy due to them being his trait.,
This lead both of them to figure body refinement and the first level of the method should be completed easily since he already head a special physique and his bones already had the characteristics of negative energy.
As he circulated the method over and over with the supply of his negative energy directed to his bones, he felt them condensing and being reinforced. He slowly felt a special effect being Imbued into his bones. That effect was shock absorption and vibration dispersion.
After a couple of hours, he felt a shackle break, he couldn't understand where that feeling came from but he felt it. And as that shackle broke his bones seemed to grow immensely stronger and harder as a black light flickered across his body.
"You have taken the first step into cultivation and entered the first step of the Foundation Establishing Realm by completing Body Tempering"
"You have completed the first level of [ Sorbathane Body ] "
" You have gained 2,000 negative energy"
"You have gained 2,500 endurance"
" You have gained 500 strength, agility and health"
After hearing the notification's Horo asked " Hey Alma why did that notification say that about the realms?"
Alma respond" Father in ancient times there was no Body Tempering Realm and Meridian Opening Realm, it was just the Foundation Establishing Realm, while the former and latter were both part of the Foundation Establishing Realm. I will automatically update all information and power systems to make things more understandable.
"Goooood. Now let's begin with making this trait, I hope that it's even possible in this world." Said Horo
Alma responded quickly to him by saying "I have to say after witnessing you creating Spirit mana, I don't think you are as restricted by rules as other denizens of this world may be."
Horo responded "You could be right."
He proceeded to feel for the eye present on his soul which was kind of hard because he had no soul related skills or techniques in this world at the moment, but with experience from his life as a cultivator and a little practice it became natural that he could feel his soul and interact with it.
He began to surround the eye with all of the negative energy he had available and then started utilizing a technique back from earth called inverted bathing. Basically it was just washing the essence of a person or object with the extremely pure negative energy in order to awaken a trait, relic, or form a soul idol.
He could feel the energy washing over the slit on his physical forehead as well but remained focused on utilizing the inverted bathing technique. He had already guessed both eyes, the one on his soul and on his forehead were connected or possibly the same. This confirmed the latter.
The process was completed after about an hour due to his negative energy being so pure.
Next he began to evolve this new trait by fusing it with his phenomena the Cyclops eye.
