Destiny's Observer

Leo is a 33-year-old office worker who has been plagued by recurring nightmares for the past month. In these nightmares, he witnesses the enigmatic world of Elysium through the eyes of a young orphan cultivator, shunned by society. However, Leo's life takes an unexpected turn when he dies on Earth and reincarnates as the very same boy he had been seeing in his nightmares, thanks to a mysterious oracle system. Equipped with the power to predict the causes of events that shape destiny, Leo embarks on a journey within the world of Elysium. He uses the oracle system's predictive abilities akin to a skilled gambler, seeking to uncover the underlying causes behind the events unfolding around him. With each successful prediction, Leo grows more powerful, harnessing the system's assistance to identify the factors responsible for reshaping the fate of cultivators and other influential figures. As Leo observes the triumphs and downfalls of the inhabitants of Elysium, he maintains a detached mindset, refraining from interfering in their affairs. His sole focus is on survival and leading a cautious, steady life, steering clear of the tumultuous struggles that grip Elysium. Despite witnessing the grandeur and the tragic consequences of the world he now inhabits, Leo remains distant and indifferent, harboring a resolve to navigate this unfamiliar realm without being drawn into its conflicts.

Mastering The Aura Nullification Technique

Leo thought to himself, 'That will do it, but before extracting the technique, I should learn the technique.' He put all his belongings into the system space except for the technique scroll. However, he noticed that the system inventory wasn't empty. There was another scroll inside. Curious, he asked the system, "What is this scroll?"

[ It's a gift from the system to see further details of technique. Hosts can use the inspect feature ]

Hearing about the unexpected gift from the system, Leo decided to examine it. He looked at the scroll while thinking about using the 'inspect' feature. As he saw the technique details, he realized that it was a unique cultivation technique.

When in a place of disturbance within the flow of destiny, user can harvest Qi at twice the normal rate.

After seeing the details of the technique, Leo realized that it was a great one because he couldn't recall anyone having a technique that cultivated Qi from the flow of destiny, and it had additional abilities too. Leo thought, 'With this technique, I can get rid of the basic cultivation technique that the sect gave me.' So, he decided to learn the technique and started to read the scroll. After an hour, he had finished and understood how it works. Then, Leo saw the scroll vanish. Upon seeing this, Leo asked, "System, where did the scroll go?"

[ Host learned the cultivation technique, so the scroll vanished. If the host wants to see the scroll again, he can look at the cultivation techniques panel on the interface. ]

Leo decide to check system interface so, he thought in his mind 'interface'

As Leo checked the cultivation technique panel, he noticed that it had changed, indicating the successful acquisition of the new technique. However, he was surprised to see that his talent had increased to fifty points. Leo quickly realized that his new cultivation technique was responsible for the significant improvement in his talent. He thought to himself, 'This technique has added nearly forty points to my talent. If I cultivate in a place where the destiny has a disturbance, I can increase my talent to ninety points, as described in the cultivation technique manual.' Leo felt relieved as he realized that his problem of reaching higher realms in cultivation had been resolved with the acquisition of this powerful technique.

With a sense of satisfaction, Leo closed the system interface. Then he inspected the aura nullification technique

[ Aura Nullification ]

[

Upon mastering the technique, the user can conceal their cultivation realm from others and reveal only what they choose to show.

Upon mastering the technique, the user can resist the pressure from others' cultivation realms when activating it.

This technique can only affect people who haven't achieved immortality.

Leo was determined to master the aura nullification technique and use it to extract karma points. He began reading the instructions, which described how to create mirrors using Qi and place them strategically on the body to reflect and distort other people's perceptions of one's cultivation realm. This process resembled mirror experiments on Earth, and Leo quickly grasped the concept. Within three days, he had mastered this aspect of the technique.

Next, Leo moved on to the second part of the technique, which focused on resisting the pressure of others' cultivation realms. As he studied, he recalled how he had been knocked out by Ice Peak Master Allyson's cultivation realm pressure and wished he had known this technique earlier.

He refocused on the instructions, which explained how to use mirror Qi to resist the pressure by placing them in a specific sequence that would endlessly reflect the pressure on other mirrors, thus shielding the user from its effects. Leo spent another four days mastering this aspect of the technique, and after seven days in total, he had become proficient in the entire technique.

Leo was pleased with his progress and marveled at his intelligence, which had enabled him to master the technique in a fraction of the time it would take most people. 'That was pretty impressive,' he thought. 'It would take others at least a month to learn this technique. But with my high intelligence stat, I was able to learn it in just seven days.'

Then Leo decided to check the system interface and see if his mastery of the technique got registered, so he called the system interface. He looked at the martial art techniques panel and saw that the technique was registered, with his mastery level appearing next to it.

Aura Nullification (Master)

While looking at the mastery level of his technique, Leo pondered the mastery levels of the world. He recalled that mastery levels began with beginner, elementary, intermediate, advanced, expert, and ended with master level. Like the grading of artifacts, the mastery of a technique was also split into six levels

After confirming that his mastery had been registered in the system interface, Leo examined the scroll and decided to exchange to karma points. He requested, 'System, extract karma points from the Aura Nullification technique.' A verification screen appeared, requiring his confirmation.

[ Extraction ] [ The Aura Nullification technique will be lost upon extraction. ] [ 1,000 karma points will be earned after the process. ] [ Could you please confirm whether you would like to proceed with the process? ]

Leo confirmed and then saw the scroll turning into particles before ceasing to exist. It was an interesting process. Then Leo checked his balance and saw 1,000 points had been added after the process. He thought to himself, 'Now, I only need to find a disturbance in destiny, and I can gain even more points.'
