I, a cultivator, have ended up in the wizarding world

Chapter 982 Is Your Skill Configuration Legal?

Jemin returned to the laboratory, closed his eyes, and sank his consciousness into his own sea of ​​consciousness, entering the Great Dao Library.

In the consciousness space of the Great Dao Library, Jieming sat cross-legged in the void, with an ancient-looking manuscript floating in front of him.

This is a special document that he found among many classic texts when he was organizing materials on cultivation.

The contents recorded in the journal are quite straightforward, even bordering on plain language.

However, it was precisely these few passages about cultivating both body and mind that allowed Jemin to rediscover the true meaning of the Mahayana period.

The above content is very straightforward: Mahayana Buddhism is not simply about reaching a certain limit in one's own power, but rather requires practitioners to cultivate both body and mind, so that they can achieve perfection in both power and character.

When Jemin first read this passage, he didn't think it was anything special.

After all, cultivators in the cultivation system have long known the importance of cultivating both body and mind.

Many classic texts emphasize that spiritual practice requires cultivating both one's nature and one's destiny; neither can be neglected.

However, as his research deepened, he discovered that most cultivators actually had a distorted understanding of the dual cultivation of body and mind.

Many independent cultivators, and even some cultivators from small sects, simply understand the dual cultivation of body and soul as the simultaneous improvement of both the physical body and the soul.

Strictly speaking, the three treasures of essence, qi, and spirit all fall under the category of life cultivation.

Whether it's physical strength, vitality, energy reserves, or mental power, as long as it's still based on improving one's own life and strength, it can only be considered as cultivating one's life force.

The so-called cultivation of nature mainly involves the fundamental state of mind and spirit.

The key to cultivating one's nature lies in understanding one's true nature and stabilizing one's mind.

It enables practitioners to truly understand themselves, to clearly recognize their own thoughts, desires, and will, and to maintain their mind in a relatively stable state.

Of course, the cultivation of spiritual and soul power often promotes the growth of one's character to a certain extent, which is why many cultivators confuse the two.

But they are not the same thing.

Becoming stronger does not necessarily mean that a person's ability to control themselves will also increase.

Similarly, having strong mental power does not mean that a person can utilize every bit of their strength to the fullest extent.

Jemin hadn't felt this particularly deeply before.

In his understanding, since the Dharma form can grow continuously with the understanding of the Dao, then cultivators only need to continuously accumulate power, master more laws, and combine them with a sufficiently mature spell system to gradually push themselves to a higher level.

As for sexual cultivation, it is more of an auxiliary method.

It can help cultivators maintain mental stability and make the cultivation process smoother, but it may not directly improve combat power.

At least, that's what he thought when he first encountered these theories.

But the note in front of him completely overturned his idea.

Jemin looked at one of the passages again.

The above uses a very intuitive analogy to explain the difference between cultivating one's nature and cultivating one's destiny.

If we consider a living organism as an iron ball, then life cultivation is about continuously increasing the volume or density of the iron ball, giving it more matter and power.

Sexual cultivation, on the other hand, aims to maximize the utilization efficiency of the internal materials while maintaining the integrity of the iron ball's shape.

Ordinary cultivators might only be able to mobilize one or two tenths of the "metal" inside the iron ball.

Even if they make the iron ball bigger, the proportion of power that can actually be used in combat still cannot be increased in order to maintain the structure of the larger iron ball.

However, as one's cultivation level increases, one can gradually mobilize more of the internal metal.

Initially, the goal was to extract more usable power from inside the iron ball while maintaining the stability of the external structure.

Further down the line, one can adjust the way one organizes one's own power, bringing those parts that were previously unavailable under complete control.

At an even higher level, one can even transform an iron ball into a hollow sphere supported by only a few key structures, or even an approximate sphere composed of several iron rings.

The external form still looks intact, but the internal structure has undergone fundamental changes.

The power that was wasted, constrained, or could not be effectively utilized in the past can now be fully unleashed.

Jemin stared at the text, his breathing gradually becoming heavy.

Although he had seen it more than once before, every time he saw this part again, he felt an overwhelming excitement.

Back when he was just a low-level wizard, he had already concluded that the overall technological level of wizard civilization was half a level lower than that of cultivation civilization.

Besides the differences between the two civilizations in terms of technological accumulation, system organization, and knowledge application, the description of the Mahayana period is an important reason for this conclusion.

The essence of a wizard's power lies in leveraging knowledge to amplify the effect of a single unit of power by thousands of times.

The cultivation system also has a mechanism that allows one to mobilize the power of heaven and earth, using one's own power to guide thousands of external forces to one's own use.

When a cultivator reaches the Mahayana stage and completes true cultivation of both body and mind, they can further improve the efficiency of utilizing every bit of power they control!

This means that cultivators can not only amplify their own power by drawing upon the power of heaven and earth, but also achieve effects similar to those of wizards through sexual cultivation.

To understand the terror of sexual cultivation, one must look at just how exaggerated the boost that the power of ascension has brought to wizard civilization.

More importantly, Jemin's power of leap is not yet perfect at this stage, and at most it can only increase the user's combat power by five times.

Such an increase has already changed the way high-level wizards fight.

The improvement that sexual cultivation brings to a cultivator is far greater than the immature leap power of Jemin!

In game terms, sexual cultivation is a different kind of "independent realm" that is independent of knowledge and the mobilization of the power of heaven and earth!

The key point is that these three types of increases are completely different!

If he could achieve dual cultivation of body and spirit, his power, besides being able to mobilize the power of heaven and earth through the cultivation system,

In addition to leveraging knowledge through the wizarding system, one can also gain a boost in the power of sexual cultivation!

Thinking of this, Jemin's eyes lit up.

If he can complete the dual cultivation of body and mind and advance to the Mahayana stage, his power will enter a completely new level!

A slow smile crept onto Jemin's lips: "If this could really be done, the power amplification would be absolutely cruel—but I like it!"

Having set his goal, in the days that followed, Jemin continued to master more laws and perfect his own spiritual laws according to the plan set by Felix.

On the other hand, we must use the materials in the Great Dao Library to systematically study the theory of sexual cultivation and figure out what changes are needed to move from the Dao-aligned state to the Mahayana stage.

To this end, he retrieved all the materials related to sexual cultivation, mental cultivation, and the Mahayana realm from the Great Dao Library and began to screen and organize them one by one.

This is no easy task, given the sheer volume of data and the numerous contradictions within it.

What's more troublesome is that each of these supposedly contradictory points is correct within its own theoretical framework.

Therefore, instead of accepting all the knowledge in the book, Jemin prepared to start from the most basic theories and rebuild a research framework that could correspond to his own power system.
