Chapter 133
Yongno saw a variety of different posts. They were all related to Qi Gong Techniques, but the vast majority of posts centered around general thoughts or personal experiences rather than strategy.
“Let’s see… ‘If you’re a magic swordsman, please use Duality Cultivation Technique’… is that a required technique for magic swordsmen?”
Curious, Yongno clicked on the post.
/Ah, I’m really at my wits end. If you’re going to use magic power and internal energy together, then why are you not training in Duality Cultivation Technique? The user who joined my party earlier today trained separately in internal energy and magic power, so he was clunky with his skills. Also, these users only seem to use magic power to cast buff spells before a fight. Ugh./
The Duality Cultivation Technique was a spiritual subdivision of Qi Gong Technique that split a single will or intention into two, allowing two different actions to be conducted at the same time. In the mainstream, the Duality Cultivation Technique was widely known as a qi circulation technique that allowed one to accumulate qi. In DIO, however, the superfluous aspects of the technique were deleted; thus, what was left was a perfected Qi Gong Technique that split one’s consciousness into two. Duality Cultivation Technique became a de facto requirement for any user who wanted to do two things at once. The author of the post, Sahae Moonsuh, was angry at the fact that magic swordsman users weren’t training in this critical technique.
/Why! Dual sword wielding could be done without Duality Cultivation Technique, so I’m not blaming these users. However, for magic swordsmen, please learn it! Even if you are only Rank 3 in Duality Cultivation Technique, you can slowly chant a spell while fighting. At first, this delays the magic spell and takes longer than if you weren’t doing two things at once, but you can eventually cast a magic spell while fighting and raise your general combat strength. Please take the time to learn it! Please!/
“If they choose to learn then they will learn… why is this guy getting on other people’s cases?”
As an internal energy and magic power user, Yongno had never considered using the Duality Cultivation Technique. The author of the post, Sahae Moonsuh, was speaking about users like Yongno. Yongno continued mumbling as he looked through the post comments.
[You’re correct. If users are planning to use their internal energy and magic power separately, then they shouldn’t be magic swordsmen.]
