Time was short, so he quickly moved on to the three mid-level Wisdom Chests.
Aizen could clearly see the slightly larger mid-level Wisdom Chests shaking before him.
The items flashing inside these mid-level Wisdom Chests were even more precious and varied, and their appearance differed from the low-level ones.
At least the low-level Wisdom Chests were made of wood, while these mid-level ones were made of iron.
When Aizen saw one of the mid-level chests, his eyes reddened with excitement. Inside was the manual for the Sword of Evil Repelling... but he didn't focus on that.
Finally, Aizen's eyes lit up when he saw the Star Absorbing Technique.
"Ding , An internal cultivation method practiced by Kaelen Darkstar, the leader of the Sun Clan."
This was an internal cultivation method, and a rare one at that.
He opened the first chest, his heart pounding as the chest shook. Finally, a system notification sounded at the right moment:
"Congratulations, you have obtained one Great Rejuvenation Pill ."
After seeing the effects of the Great Rejuvenation Pill, which could enhance one's internal Aura by ten years, Aizen was very satisfied.
He moved on to open the second chest, the one he valued the most, as it contained the Star Absorbing Technique.
The chest began to shake, and Aizen could feel the items inside trembling.
Finally, just as his heart was about to leap out of his throat, the chest opened with a squeak.
"Congratulations, you have obtained the Star Absorbing Technique Manual."
Aizen exhaled deeply, and a wave of joy surged through him. This luck was truly overwhelming.
He had obtained an internal cultivation method, something incredibly rare.
By the time he opened the third chest, Aizen was much calmer, and indeed, the result was a little less exciting.
"Congratulations, you have obtained one thousand silver taels."
All three chests were now open, and Aizen's hands were full of new items, with silver scattered all over the floor.
Without even glancing at the white gleaming silver, Aizen placed the bottle containing the Great Rejuvenation Pill and the technique manuals on the bed, his eyes filled with joy.
This haul was truly abundant.
Although he hadn't gotten something as outrageous as the Arcane Body , the Great Rejuvenation Pill was still an extraordinary item. After consuming and refining its medicinal power, it could enhance his internal Aura by ten years.
But the most important thing was that he had obtained the Star Absorbing Technique.
Aizen had not practiced any techniques so far, let alone any internal cultivation methods.
Without an internal cultivation method, he couldn't generate internal Aura , which meant that he wouldn't be able to refine the Great Rejuvenation Pill, no matter how potent it was.
But now, he had no more concerns. The Star Absorbing Technique had come just in time. The lucky aura around him was truly impressive.
Aizen opened the Star Absorbing Technique manual, and a flash of white light appeared in his mind, followed by the image of a man.
The man was in his middle years, tall and dressed in a black silk robe. His long, pale face was devoid of any blood, and his features were delicate but ghostly white, as if he had just stepped out of a grave.
It was Kaelen Darkstar, the leader of the Sun Clan. Aizen's heart skipped a beat as he watched the figure sit down cross-legged in his mind and begin practicing the Star Absorbing Technique. The key points of the technique quickly manifested in his mind, and Aizen grasped them with surprising ease, without any difficulty.
Within a few minutes, the image of the figure began to fade from his mind.
"System notification: Congratulations, you have mastered the Star Absorbing Technique (fourth-rate internal method): Level 1: Proficiency 5%. Evaluation: Beginner."
The Star Absorbing Technique was only rated as a fourth-rate internal cultivation method by the system, which left Aizen a little stunned. He could feel a faint sense of Aura in his core, although it wasn't strong, it gave him a reassuring sense of strength.
Aizen was quite satisfied. He picked up the basic fist and kick technique manual and tapped it.
Suddenly, his mind filled with numerous vague images of people practicing basic yet profound fist and kick techniques.
Without realizing it, Aizen followed along in his mind, and after a short while, the images disappeared, leaving him with a series of routines and moves as if he had practiced them for some time.
"System notification: Congratulations, you have mastered the Basic Fist and Kick Technique (no rank): Proficiency 5%. Evaluation: Beginner."
Aizen understood now. It seemed that with any new technique, the initial learning process only granted him 5% proficiency.
If he wanted to increase the power of his techniques, he would need to practice and engage in real combat. The more proficient he became, the stronger the technique's power would be.
Even a basic fist and kick technique, once practiced to 100% proficiency, would likely rival some beginner-level mid or low-tier techniques.
Of course, the basic techniques were the foundation of all Sorcery arts. Like the saying goes, "A skyscraper is built on a solid foundation," and mastering basic techniques was essential to evolving into more advanced Sorcery skills.
Aizen realized that even the lowest-level disciples of the Heavenly Demon Clan, like Steward Edric, only learned basic fist and kick techniques. They weren't qualified to learn anything else, let alone internal cultivation methods.
But now, Aizen had the Star Absorbing Technique, a great leap forward.
His gaze fell on the bottle containing the Great Rejuvenation Pill.
With a determined breath, Aizen opened the bottle. A rich medicinal fragrance wafted through the air as a black pill, the size of a dragon's eye, rolled out.
Without hesitation, Aizen swallowed it.
At first, there was no reaction, but Aizen sat cross-legged on his bed and began circulating the Star Absorbing Technique.
The most Techniques, absorbed internal Aura from others by using a negative force to draw in positive Aura , requiring the practitioner to have strong internal Aura .
The Star Absorbing Technique, on the other hand, worked like a void, drawing in Aura , with the practitioner's Cora acting as a deep, empty vessel.
Although the Sun Clan didn't exist in this Magus world, the system was an exception.
By completing daily tasks and accumulating Wisdom points, Aizen could open Wisdom Chests and obtain all sorts of rare and unusual items.
Even things not native to this world could be acquired, such as the Arcane Body or the Star Absorbing Technique.
Of course, Aizen doubted that items like nuclear warheads, planes, or tanks could ever be drawn from the chests.
After all, this was a Magus world, and the items from the Wisdom Chests were aligned with the current civilization and power system of this world. Anything beyond that would be unreasonable.
The Star Absorbing Technique was a top-tier internal cultivation method in the low-Sorcery world but judging by the system's evaluation, Aizen guessed that it was still far inferior to some of the top-tier internal cultivation methods in this Magus world.
For instance, the Heavenly Demon Clan's Heavenly Demon Scripture was likely far superior in both power and potential to the Star Absorbing Technique.
But given Aizen's current status, there was no way he could access the Heavenly Demon Scripture. Obtaining the Star Absorbing Technique was already an incredible stroke of luck.
The progress and power of the Star Absorbing Technique depended entirely on the capacity of one's Core , and it wasn't necessarily related to having profound internal Aura .
However, Aizen understood that without a strong foundation of internal Aura , using the Star Absorbing Technique to absorb others' Aura would backfire, causing damage to both himself and others.
Aizen had temporarily used the Star Absorbing Technique to transform foreign internal Auras into his own, but without the proper method to merge those Auras , he would eventually suffer from internal backlash, resulting in certain death.
Fortunately, the version of the Star Absorbing Technique that Aizen had obtained was complete, and it included the method to merge internal Auras, so he didn't need to worry about that.
After about a quarter of an hour, steam began to rise from the top of Aizen's head. He was drenched in sweat as his internal Aura continued to grow steadily under the effects of the Great Rejuvenation Pill, forcing out impurities from his body.
This state continued for half an hour before Aizen slowly exhaled a breath of foul air and brought his hands to his forehead, calming the surging Aura within him.
One Great Rejuvenation Pill had increased his internal Aura by ten years. According to Aizen's estimation, his internal Aura level was now comparable to that of some weaker disciples of the Heavenly Demon Clan.
