Aksai understood that he now held the power to ask for something truly valuable—something that could solidify this exchange as a major turning point in his cultivation.
But he also recognized that there was a delicate balance here. Haitin had been fair, and Aksai didn't want to come across as greedy or push the limits of their budding alliance.
After a few moments of silence, Aksai finally spoke, his tone measured and thoughtful.
Aksai continued with a calm, measured voice.
"Brother Haitin, if your sect has them, I would like some body cultivation techniques. Of course, I'm looking for those suitable for my current Foundation Building realm.
That means techniques that would allow me to progress further in the second realm of body cultivation. If those aren't available, I can accept techniques for the first realm as well, just as a reference."
