Cultivation Simulator: Shocking the Academy

However, after Luo Chen skimmed through the Cultivation Technique of "Earth Escape Technique," he secretly shook his head. He knew that although the Earth Escape Technique was magical, it was primarily focused on escape, and the stealth effect he desired was not obvious. Moreover, the Earth Escape Technique also required a certain amount of time to cultivate, and he was pressed for time. He had to find a more suitable Cultivation Technique quickly.

Seeing Luo Chen shaking his head, Ouyang Qian also understood his thoughts. She sighed softly and looked again at the Cultivation Techniques on the bookshelf. Wind Grasshopper noticed their dilemma and, after pondering for a moment, suddenly spoke up, "Actually, there is another Cultivation Technique that might suit your needs."

As he spoke, he took out an old-looking scroll from the bottom of the bookshelf and handed it to Luo Chen. "This Cultivation Technique is called 'Concealed Breath Technique.' It not only allows you to hide your presence but also conceals your aura. When cultivated to a high degree, it can even deceive the senses of advanced cultivators."

Upon hearing Wind Grasshopper's introduction, Luo Chen and Ouyang Qian's eyes lit up. They hurriedly took the scroll to inspect it and found that this "Concealed Breath Technique" was indeed as Wind Grasshopper described, containing techniques for both hiding one's presence and concealing one's aura. For Luo Chen, it was undoubtedly the most suitable choice.

"Thank you, Dragon Monarch!" Luo Chen expressed his gratitude excitedly. With this "Concealed Breath Technique," his survival ability in Liu Jing would certainly be greatly enhanced.

Wind Grasshopper smiled slightly and waved his hand, indicating there was no need for thanks. He looked at Luo Chen and Ouyang Qian, feeling quite gratified in his heart. Although these two young people's cultivation was not high, they possessed a determined will and extraordinary wisdom. He believed that in the days to come, they would surely carve out a domain of their own.

In the time that followed, Luo Chen and Ouyang Qian began cultivating the "Concealed Breath Technique" under Wind Grasshopper's guidance. Though the Cultivation Technique was profound, under Wind Grasshopper's meticulous instruction, both of them made rapid progress. Before long, they mastered the Technique for hiding their presence and aura, fully preparing for their upcoming journey to Liu Jing.

Luo Chen put down the scroll in his hand, his brow furrowed. He was aware that with the skills of the Nalan pair, the Earth Escape Technique might be hard to evade their detection. Though he felt a little unwilling, he still cupped his hands towards Wind Grasshopper and asked, "Aside from this, isn't there any other suitable Cultivation Technique?"

Wind Grasshopper sighed silently and shook his head, "While there are quite a few Techniques for hiding one's presence, most require a cultivator at the Golden Core Realm to practice. Given your current cultivation level, it is indeed very hard to find something particularly suitable."

Hearing this, Luo Chen couldn't help but show a look of disappointment on his face. But then Wind Grasshopper continued, "However, I do recall a Cultivation Technique that can hide your presence and doesn't require much Soul Power. However, this Cultivation Technique is quite profound and obscure, and even when I first read it, I needed to ponder for a long time to comprehend it."

Ouyang Qian, upon hearing this, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes, and she immediately said, "If that's the case, we hope the Dragon Monarch can present this Cultivation Technique for us to see."

But Wind Grasshopper waved his hand, motioning for them to calm down. "Besides being profound and obscure, that Cultivation Technique has another drawback, which is that it is incomplete, containing only one-third of the content."

Upon hearing this, Luo Chen did not feel too disappointed. What he needed was merely the ability to temporarily hide his presence to cope with the immediate predicament. Once he successfully broke away from the situation in Liu Jing, this Cultivation Technique wouldn't be of much use to him. Therefore, he said without hesitation, "As long as it can hide my presence and I can cultivate it, that's enough."

Seeing Luo Chen's determination, Wind Grasshopper did not persuade further. He turned and walked to the top tier of the bookshelf, carefully pulling out a thin scroll. The scroll was extremely thin, about the thickness of a third of a fingernail, and the back was incomplete, evidently having been deliberately torn. On the cover of the Cultivation Technique were three ancient characters — Ghost Shadow Skill.

Luo Chen took the scroll, feeling light and fragile, as if a slight exertion could damage it. He delicately opened the first page, only to see it filled with complex and esoteric text and diagrams. Although Luo Chen's understanding of Cultivation Techniques was not deep, he could sense the extraordinary nature of this Cultivation Technique.

"This is the first level cultivation Technique of Ghost Shadow Skill," Wind Grasshopper explained from the side, "When cultivated to a high level, this Cultivation Technique allows your silhouette to be as elusive and unpredictable as a ghost. However, due to its incompleteness, the subsequent cultivation Techniques are unknown."
