Chapter 400: Essence Evolution Path of Power (II)
The Wave Warrior Rank was nearly identical in both the Astral Rebirth Path of Power and the Essence Evolution Path of Power, with both focusing on the development of meridians that emerged from the Sacred Organ and made a complete circuit, going through the organs, bones, muscles, and skin until reaching the exterior, then branching into a new set of meridians that connected the energy from the outside into the Sacred Organ.
Of course, to train the Essence Evolution Path of Power, the Scarlet King needed a cultivation technique. While he could take the one from Orphin, he had an even better one inside his heart as the Sonic Blade Fusion Technique bordered both Paths of Power.
It took Cain over three months to reach Level 3 of the Astral Rebirth Path of Power, but now, in just one week, he had already reached that level in the Essence Evolution Path of Power!
Of course, that overwhelming speed had to do with the fact that right now, he had a much more powerful lineage and that the resources were overwhelmingly better.
The Scarlet King smiled as he felt how the new meridians designed for Essence Wave had already emerged from his Evolution Core and spread into his organs, but it was at this point that a new element came into play.
As the amount of Essence Wave inside his body grew larger and purer, the Scarlet King’s mind and soul were able to start harmonizing with the cosmic forces of the world, the Laws!
Powerful resources and great Lineage can only take you so far. Just like the Astral Rebirth Path of Power had Marrow Washing, the Essence Evolution Path of Power also had a component that played a crucial role in how far you could go.
For the Astral Rebirth Path of Power, the foundation was paramount, and that presented itself in the form of Marrow Washing in the Wave Warrior Rank and Blood Rebirth in the Wave Champion. However, for the Essence Evolution Path of Power, the defining factor in their path was perception, especially their perception of the Laws.
The Laws are the matrix of the world, the invisible network of cosmic forces that allowed the existence of reality, enabling fire to burn and ice to cool down. While Astral Rebirth Cultivators did not have to worry about them, they were the core of the Essence Evolution Path of Power.
Understanding the Laws not only allowed you to summon their power to enhance your battle might but also allowed the refinement of your Essence Wave and talent.
As one would expect for a Saint Cultivation Technique like the Sonic Blade Fusion Technique, it had insight into the Law of Sound. The Scarlet King could use it to refine his power and enhance his might, but while the insights in the cultivation technique were formidable and would grant great battle power, he had an even better option.
