Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation! - Chapter 283: Chapter 177: Sudden Enlightenment after Seventy Years, the Terrifying Difficulty of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique (Second Update) _3

[When you emerged from the state of sudden enlightenment, you felt a sense of loss.]

[Immediately after, you glanced at the time and were shocked—it was the longest period of sudden enlightenment you had ever experienced.]

[It lasted a full seven days, equivalent to the amount of cultivation a normal person would achieve in seventy years!]

[You began to comprehend the extent to which you had cultivated the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique.]

[Without surprise, you had reached the Minor Completion stage of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique… and you were even just a hair’s breadth away from the Mahayana Level!]

[At the peak of Minor Completion of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique, your sensitivity to danger was enhanced, allowing you to precisely capture the auspicious and ominous signs of how a matter’s development would affect you.]

[Together with your innate talent for seeking advantages and avoiding dangers, you could almost predict most of the perils you faced in advance, and possibly avoid them beforehand.]

[If you were willing to expend your cultivation level, you could even observe the auspicious and ominous omens of others, faintly catching glimpses of the fate of ordinary people.]

[But the stronger the opponent’s power, the more cultivation level you would need to spend…]

[In addition, there was your mastery of the Heavenly Secrets Shielding Technique; you were now nearly flawless at shielding your own fate from scrutiny, making it impossible for ordinary cultivators to divine your destiny.]

[Under the cover of the Heavenly Secrets Shielding Technique, a gray fog seemed to swirl around you, evading most divination attempts.]

[Yet the Heavenly Secrets Shielding Technique wasn’t omnipotent; if the opponent’s divination was stronger than yours, they might still sense some traces.]

Su Xing took a deep breath and felt a bit of astonishment.

“Seven days of sudden enlightenment… equal to seventy years of normal cultivation, and still I didn’t manage to reach the Mahayana Level in one go?”

Su Xing found it hard to believe.

Just what devilish difficulty was this Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique?

“Adding the more than twenty years I spent cultivating before… it’s almost like I’ve cultivated the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique for over a hundred years!”

“And though my comprehension isn’t extremely exceptional, it is still above average… to think it would be this difficult!”

Only then did Su Xing understand the true weight behind the secret technique’s saying, “only those with exceptional comprehension can comprehend it.”

“It’s just, I wonder how far Damned Zong has cultivated the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique? Could it be that he is even more advanced than me?”

Su Xing couldn’t be sure, but given that Damned Zong could control this secret technique on his own, his comprehension should be decent.

Plus, Damned Zong had been cultivating for one or two thousand years…

It’s possible that he indeed understands more than Su Xing does.

Touching his chin, Su Xing murmured:

“However, after seven days of sudden enlightenment, I am not far from reaching the Mahayana Level with the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique…”

“With over twenty years left in this simulation, perhaps I could give it a try and see if I can break through to the Mahayana Level first?”

Su Xing decided to play it safe, choosing not to trouble Damned Zong for the time being.

If, when the simulation was close to ending, Su Xing still had not brought the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique to the Mahayana Level, he would have no choice but to go and forcefully confront Damned Zong.

Thinking this, Su Xing’s gaze turned to the simulation panel.

[In the eighth year, after making rapid progress in the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique, you continued your diligent cultivation daily, hoping to reach the Mahayana Level as soon as possible.]

[In the ninth year, you achieved slight improvement in your Sword Control Technique, increasing your escape speed considerably.]

[In the tenth year, on the day of Jingzhe, you ventured to a great mountain to try to collect Spring Dew Pure Water, wanting to know how much you could gather in one go with your current strength.]

[Divine Sense instantly enveloped the vast mountain range.]

[As the first thunder of spring sounded, rain began to fall within your senses.]

[Tens of thousands of raindrops, their descending trajectories slowed in your eyes.]

[Stepping onto a flying sword, you moved… turning into an afterimage and returning to your original spot in half a second.]

[You opened your palm to find nine sparkling and clear drops of Spring Dew Pure Water suspended within the wrap of spiritual energy.]

[You felt immensely satisfied; although there were only nine drops, this quantity was more than any previous attempt.]

[At the same time, you anticipated that to collect all ten drops at once, you would probably need to reach the Minor Completion stage of the Sword Control Technique.]

[So, you practiced even more diligently, and in a blink, three more years passed…]

[In the thirteenth year, as a result of your years of cultivation, your escaping technique had become faster and faster, but the Sword Control Technique had yet to reach the Minor Completion stage.]

[Over these years on Jingzhe, you tried multiple times, but the Spring Dew Pure Water you collected was always only nine drops; you knew this was your current limit.]

[In the fourteenth year, after many years of arduous cultivation, you made a slight breakthrough in the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique, inching closer to perfection.]

[Now, with less than ten years before the arrival of the behemoth, you knew time was precious, so you cultivated even harder, not daring to waste a moment.]

[In the blink of an eye, two more years passed…]

[In the sixteenth year, you felt your mastery of the Sword Control Technique becoming more exquisite, just a step away from reaching Minor Completion.]

[At this point, an enemy thousands of meters away could easily lose their head to the sword in your hand.]

[And your escape speed had increased by more than fifty percent than before.]

[By the eighteenth year, your Sword Control Technique was still stuck just before the threshold of Minor Completion…]

[But to your utmost surprise, with your decades of arduous cultivation, you naturally entered the Mahayana Level of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique!]

[With the Mahayana Level Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique, you were able to manipulate your own fate with ease.]

[As for divining auspiciousness and omens, and peeking into fate, it came even more naturally to you…]

[After mastering the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique, you managed to avert hundreds of assassination attempts aimed at you, leaving those Human Race traitors to return in utter failure.]

[Now, with the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique at the Mahayana Level, you knew it was time to attempt another confrontation with Damned Zong…]
