Tri-Cultivation
Its now mid-day, Deimos wakes up after around 12 hours of sleep... which is a lot.
Rubbing her eyes and yawning, Deimos thinks back to the morning's conversation with Yahweh. Suddenly she remembers that she gained a new stat, and had a power boost. Eagerly she opens her status window.
"Status"
---------{Status}---------
Name: Deimos
Active Title: Deimos, Incarnation of terror
Race: Human
Bloodline: Supreme Human
Physique: None
Age: [Irrelevant (Divinity Causes agelessness)]
Body Cultivation Realm: Muscle Refinement 6
Spirit Cultivation Realm: Mortal
Qi Cultivation Realm: Mortal
Strength - 12 (strong)
Durability - 20 (very durable)
Willpower/Mental strength - 6 (very above average mortal)
Agility/Speed - 12 (fast)
Charisma/Charm - 4 (very good looking)
Luck/Fortune - 42 (tremendously fortunate)
Divinity - 1 (infant divine, +100% all around boost)
(Just to clarify for people if they misunderstand, the stat boost was because of the naming process doubling base stats in the form of divinity, I'm just doing a flat doubling of the numbers to make it easier to handle them)
Unused Stat Points: 4
---------{====}---------
'This.... has got to be cheating... I'm ageless now?..... I even have 2x my previous strength with 4 stat points I forgot to use! I guess better take care of those..... and I think the name doubled everything including stat point gain?'
[Lck (Luck/Fortune) - 42 --> 46]
Unused Stat Points - 4 --> 0]
Looking at the position of the sun, Deimos sees that there is a decent amount of time to kill before the demon lions come out and she can hunt them, so she starts to experiment with her new strength.
She finds a tree, before getting named she could smash a large chunk out of one with her bare hands, enough to topple it. While gauntlets let her punch through it like butter.
'If I have 2x as much strength I can probably destroy this tree with one hand.... ooh I know what would be cool! what if I try a one inch punch on it.... Bruce lee strikes again!' she puts her hand out flat, all fingers outstretched with her fingertips touching the tree.
'I don't know if I'm doing this right but It should work, here we go' in an instant Deimos' hand forms into a fist while rapidly moving towards the tree trunk. In less then a second Deimos' fist smashes into the tree breaking through and knocking it over.
Taking a step back, she was surprised with the potency of her strength. Deimos liked this boost nonetheless. For her next test she was going to see how fast she got. She covers herself in a mirage, and begins to search for a horned rabbit to test her speed against.
'If an average person with 1 agility point can run a maximum of 10-15 mph(16-25 kph), and I have 12 agility.... am I able to run over 120 mph(193 kph) when I try my hardest? That's.... much faster then most cars' thinking about this, she realizes that comparing her speed to a monster that she could catch with 2 agility is pointless
'how should I test my speed..... maybe I could sprint to the other forest across the field..... ehh if I'm gonna do that i'll test everything else first'
Testing durability isn't the greatest Idea because intentionally hurting yourself less then 24 hours before you start hunting powerful enemies isn't smart. Deimos doesn't know how to test willpower either.... other then maybe mirages with the light mirage technique.
She is the only person in this forest at the moment.... probably? So charisma can't really be checked, but luck? She could test her luck pretty easily with her access to the gacha system.... and she has increased her luck by a lot compared to before.
"System, open gacha"
The system screen opened, with the search bar option highlighted.
'The gacha can roll anything.... this gives me an idea'
She searches for system gacha, the system screen brought up the gacha and its price
[System Gacha - 1,000,000 achievement points]
'well that ruins my idea..... for now, maybe I could try some other gacha'
Her next idea was to do a weapon technique gacha. Searching for it she sees the price.... which she can afford.
[Weapon Technique Gacha - 2000 achievement points]
'Quite expensive, and its not even for a specific weapon type. Maybe I should check out the shop's prices for gauntlet techniques before gambling away all of my achievement points'
Moving the gacha window to the side, she opens the system shop and searches up "Gauntlet Fighting Techniques" bringing up the list. Sorting it to the type Yahweh suggested, very hard to master but powerful.
[Mystic Brawler's Techniques - 5000 achievement points (SS grade common)
Multiple techniques focused on utilizing the mystic nature of one's soul to empower every movement and attack (Notice: This technique requires mana which User does not have)]
[Ancient Turtle Defensive Techniques - 10000 achievement points (SSS grade common)
Multiple techniques focused on immense defensive abilities utilizing fists. Includes footwork, defensive, and offensive techniques which are all focused on minimalizing damage taken]
[Fist of Twisting Dragons - 10000 (SSS grade common)
With a fist as ferocious as dragons, this brawler technique emulates dragon's breath with every attack]
[Blinding fist of god - 10000 (SSS grade common)
harness holy light with every punch, greatly empowering every attack with great effectiveness against demon type enemies]
'All of the SSS grade ones sound good..... but they are quite expensive... I should secure myself the cultivation techniques first because those are more important' again moving them to the side she goes to search up the cultivation techniques.... but she gets an idea.
'Could all 3 cultivation types be merged into one technique? maybe I could look for that'
Putting the idea in the search bar results appeared
[Heavenly Crossroads of Time mantra (SSS grade Divine) - 550,000,000,000 (550B)
Utilize this technique to become one with time, see into the future and past, control your time, cause distortions, freeze time, all of these are basic techniques contained within this tri-cultivation technique]
After seeing that Deimos realized she didn't filter it and it showed her a divine grade technique. Quite a cool one too. Way too far from what she can get for now though. So she filters it before she gets caught up in searching through them.
Finally after around 2 hours straight of searching for a technique she liked, she came across a specific one that caught her eye. It seems to be a super difficult to learn technique based off of fate manipulation in the form of increasing luck.
[Heavenly Clover of fate mantra - 45,000 achievement points (Ex grade uncommon)
One of the most difficult Tri-cultivation techniques allowing for one to reach the level of complete immortality, but only theoretically. This cultivation technique builds into the Ultimate fate soul, Unlimited luck physique, and allows one to utilize fate Qi.]
Deimos looks at this and imagines what she could do with it, but realizes it's uncommon rank and so cheap because of how hard it is to cultivate.... just like Yahweh said the difficulty makes it cheaper.
This may be the case, but Deimos is determined enough to cultivate it. Along with that ageing is no longer an issue because of her current type 1 immortality.
She selects the cultivation technique and buys it, feeling an immense amount of information flow into her mind.... much more then any other time by a very large margin. She stumbles with a massive headache. She broke the tree not too far from her house so she walks back over to it slowly but surely and lies down.
Deimos was laying down processing the immense amount of information all the way until sundown. Finally after all of that she sits up, knowing everything about the technique perfectly. The only reason the technique was so hard to cultivate was because it required luck to cultivate in the first place.
Gathering the qi used for every part in its own part requires you to attempt to absorb fate qi. Moving fate qi forcefully requires either 10m times the force you need to absorb normal qi or it requires the technique's user to get lucky, the fate qi could just give up the fight randomly.
This technique has no specific time it needs to be cultivated at so Deimos can do it whenever she wants to. With all of that information processed and much more, its sundown and time to hunt some more demon lions.
Killing 7 more demon lions for rewards will be easy now with her doubled stats.
