"Even if the immortal techniques your master teaches you are extremely compatible with you, it's not impossible for you to surpass your master after learning them. My signature immortal technique, Shadow Shuttle, is rated as top-tier by the Basic Spells Division. If you are willing to learn it, I can teach it to you."
"As for whether this immortal technique suits you, I can't guarantee it. You'll only be able to understand it after you practice it," Diao Chan said.
"Sister Diaochan, you...you're actually willing to teach Shuttle Shadow to Wang Xian? That...that's a unique immortal technique you developed yourself!" Before Wang Yao could even speak, Wang Zhaojun exclaimed in surprise upon hearing Diaochan's words.
"Immortal arts are nothing more than a means of self-defense. In order to gain merit, I have already betrayed the Heavenly Court once. Now, in order to complete the trial mission, it is no big deal to teach it to Wang Xian again."
"The only thing to worry about is that this technique doesn't suit Wang Xian, so it can't bring out his personal characteristics and has limited effect. It will become a useless thing for him, which would be a real pity," Diao Chan said slowly.
“Wang Xian, I must say something on behalf of Sister Diao Chan. Teaching immortal arts through the transmission of knowledge usually requires a lineage of teachers and students. In other words, if you want to learn the Shuttle Shadow Technique, you should become Sister Diao Chan’s disciple.” Teacher Luo suddenly interjected at this moment.
“Wang Xian, there’s no need to worry. In the past, the methods passed down mostly came from cultivation families. An ancestral immortal technique was passed down from father to son and from son to grandson. In order to prevent it from being leaked, there are strict rules for its inheritance. The Shuttle Shadow Technique is something I created myself. I don’t have any descendants to take care of. Besides, I’ve already sold this technique to someone else once.”
"Therefore, Immortal Wang, you don't need to care about what Teacher Luo said. We are only here in the forging of gods and demons, and we don't need to follow so many rules when it comes to the transmission of immortal techniques." After hearing Teacher Luo's words, Diao Chan quickly explained to Wang Yao, seemingly trying to dispel his concerns.
After hearing what Diao Chan said, Wang Yao understood that her magic "Shadow Shuttle" must be quite good, since it had already been certified by the Heavenly Court. Moreover, if Diao Chan didn't have confidence in her magic, she could have simply not brought it up.
The reason she was willing to share this immortal technique with Wang Yao was, of course, to increase Wang Yao's chances of survival in the realm of gods and demons, thereby increasing her own chances of completing the mission. Therefore, she must have been quite confident in this immortal technique to make such a suggestion.
"Um... Sister Diao Chan, is your Shuttle Shadow an offensive type, or a defensive/support type?" Upon thinking of this, Wang Yao felt a little eager to try it out, and he asked after a moment's thought.
“My immortal technique has all three aspects. If you cultivate it, from the Nascent Soul stage upwards, the power will at least double for each realm you advance. That’s why it was judged as top-tier by the Basic Techniques Department. Back then, it sold for more than 5.6 million merits. It was all thanks to it that I advanced to the Divine Transformation stage,” Diao Chan said.
The value of a comprehensive immortal technique naturally surpasses that of a single immortal technique. In addition, this immortal technique has good growth potential, which is why it was recognized by the Heavenly Court. It should be noted that the Heavenly Court's Department of Magic has handled countless immortal techniques. Without some outstanding characteristics, how could one catch their eye?
"Um... can I learn this magic now?" Wang Yao's mouth watered as he listened, and he planned to have Diao Chan teach him this "Shadow Shuttle" technique immediately.
“You are still in the Golden Core stage. My immortal technique can only be learned after reaching the Nascent Soul stage. Otherwise, your spiritual energy reserves will not be able to keep up, and your immortal body's resilience is still a bit lacking,” Diao Chan replied.
"I see... So... the last method to comprehend is to study immortal techniques on your own? Is that right?" Wang Yao was slightly disappointed. Although "Shuttle Shadow" was good, he was still short of the threshold to learn it, so he could only put it aside for now.
"Yes, comprehension is the creation of one's own immortal techniques. Because immortal techniques are created by oneself based on one's own characteristics, those techniques are often the most suitable for oneself and the most in line with the characteristics of one's signature techniques. Only in the hands of the creator will they have the most powerful performance."
"Take my Shuttle Shadow for example. With each advancement in my realm, its power doesn't just double, but increases dramatically. It's so you know that when I use Shuttle Shadow at the Nascent Soul stage, it's enough to rival an ordinary immortal technique at the Body Integration stage."
“The Shadow Shuttle has played a significant role in my ability to escape from True God Hunters every time,” Diao Chan said. “However, although the immortal techniques I have learned are the most useful, learning immortal techniques is by no means a simple matter.”
"Looking at the Heavenly Court, there are countless immortals above the Nascent Soul stage, but how many immortal techniques do they create every hundred years? And most of them are single-type immortal techniques. Otherwise, how could my Shuttle Shadow be worth millions of merits?" Diao Chan's words were full of pride.
"Creating one's own immortal techniques is extremely time-consuming. It is common for immortals to spend hundreds or even thousands of years to comprehend a single immortal technique. Therefore, in order to ensure that one has a certain level of combat strength, one should not be easily killed by cultivators of the same level."
"We generally advise Nascent Soul level cultivators to first learn a signature immortal technique through imitation or instruction, and then comprehend and create their own immortal techniques. This is a more appropriate approach."
"Now that you're participating in the God and Demon Forging Ceremony, I strongly suggest you first learn the Shuttle Shadow Technique. Once you return to the Heavenly Court and have more free time, you can slowly comprehend and create your own immortal techniques," Diao Chan said.
“Hmm… I understand…” Wang Yao nodded silently. Comprehending immortal techniques is extremely difficult for those immortals who rely on the system to advance to the Nascent Soul stage, but since he participated in the God and Demon Forging, from the Qi Refining stage to the current Golden Core stage, he has comprehended almost all immortal techniques.
What is difficult for other immortals may not be so difficult for Wang Yao.
