Chapter 351: Chapter 222 Divine Skills
In the Divine Foot Skill legacy, the only technique that Foundation Establishment cultivators could learn was the “Step by Step Lotus”. The more advanced secret techniques simply couldn’t be sustained by the spiritual power of those at the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Even the “Step by Step Lotus” cultivation technique wasn’t easy to master, requiring one to visualize a “White Lotus Pattern” from the Divine Foot Skill legacy in the mind.
If it were an ordinary pattern, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator’s mind could visualize it with ease.
But this “White Lotus Pattern” was different. At first glance, it appeared ordinary; however, upon closer inspection, every tiny point of the “White Lotus Pattern” was composed of innumerable Buddhist Sanskrit characters.
Without the transmission method of Jade Foot Relics, such a cultivation technique couldn’t be passed down using mere text and illustrations.
The number of Sanskrit characters in the “White Lotus Pattern” exceeded ten billion. Even for Foundation Establishment Cultivators who wanted to visualize such a vast array of characters forming the “White Lotus Pattern”, the majority would be unable to complete this workload in their lifetime.
...
No matter how strong one’s memory, it has its limits. Remembering ten billion characters and also needing to arrange them into a pattern simply wasn’t within the capability of an ordinary cultivator.
Only Buddhist cultivators who were exposed to Sanskrit from a young age, understanding the arrangement and sequential significance of the characters, could significantly reduce the memory workload.
