Primordial Harem System

Chapter 257: Mastering Techniques



He could phase through objects or evade attacks, but it demanded exact timing and control over his Spatial Qi flow.

He started with small goals, directing the Spatial Qi to envelop his entire body. The first attempt left him dizzy, the sensation of being partially disconnected from reality felt quite jarring to him.

When he tried to phase through the table in the room, he only succeeded in banging his knee into the table.

[You are being impatient with this technique.]

Yue Lan advised softly.

[Don't try to control the flow of space, try to mend in it, let the wind cough let the space carry you forward instead of trying to actively resist it.] Find your next adventure on empire

Taking her words to heart, Shen Yuan calmed down, taking a few deep breaths. He visualized the space around him as a fluid, his body as a ripple within it.

Gradually, he allowed himself to slip into the flow, feeling the boundaries of his existence blur. His heart raced as he passed through the table in the center of the room, completely unscathed.

"Fuck Yes!" He breathed, a sense of accomplishment flowing through him. He spent the next few weeks perfecting the technique, learning to phase in and out at will within an instant.

By the end of the three weeks, it felt almost natural—a flicker of Spatial Qi, and he could phase through barriers as easily as stepping through an open door.

"Haha, this will be quite useful to infiltrate sects or other such places." He thought as his mind spun and all of a sudden an evil idea took place in.

[No. You won't intrude into female disciples' bathroom in the sect.]

"Hey! I wasn't thinking about that!" He quickly protested.

[Yeah yeah sure. Let me meet with Yuxin next time. Hmph.]

"Why are you angry about it anyway?" He suspiciously asked, "Are you perhaps…jealous?"

[Hmph! Why would I be jealous?]

Her voice filled with contempt sounded in his mind.

"Well who knows what goes in that mind of yours." Shen Yuan shook his head before dropping the topic as he decided to learn one final technique before calling it quits.

The final technique that he decided on was Spatial Camouflage Veil, it was a deceptively simple technique in concept but quite challenging to use.

By slightly distorting the space around him, Shen Yuan could effectively render himself invisible, The trick was maintaining the distortion without it collapsing or causing visible ripples.

He started by gathering Spatial Qi around his body, weaving it into a thin, flexible veil. The first attempts resulted in uneven coverage—parts of his figure would disappear while space on other location seemed distorted, giving him a ghostly, distorted appearance.

"It's like I'm half here and half gone," he muttered, frustrated and amused by the funny sight.

[You're overthinking it again,]

Yue Lan interjected.

[Treat it like a second skin. It's not about hiding from space—it's about blending into it.]

Shen Yuan took a deep breath and tried again.

This time, he visualized the veil as an extension of himself, a natural part of his presence. The Spatial Qi flowed smoothly, wrapping around him in a seamless layer.

When he opened his eyes, he glanced at his reflection in the chamber's polished floor. Nothing. Not even a faint shimmer.

"Much better," he said, his smirk returning.

Over the next few weeks, Shen Yuan pushed the technique further. He practiced moving while camouflaged, maintaining the veil even under intense Qi fluctuations.

By the end of the second month, he could activate the Spatial Camouflage Veil instinctively, his presence vanishing without a trace in an instant.

"Void Steps, Phase Drift, and Spatial Camouflage Veil—all three techniques mastered," Shen Yuan said, standing in the center of the chamber.

[The perfect combo to peep at the maidens in the bath. I know what kind of man you are now, Shen Yuan.]

Her disdainful voice echoed in his mind.

He felt his eye twitching hearing her words, "You know very well this was not the reason I learned these—you know what, I won't explain myself. You know very well why I learned these techniques."

[Hehe. Of course I know I was merely teasing you. So, now what? Will you exit seclusion?]

"No, not yet. The most important part of this seclusion is remaining." He softly said before settling back down on the meditation mat.

[Ah yeah, Spatial Intent. I forgot you haven't mastered it yet.]

"I'm not far, I won't take long to learn it at this rate."

[True enough, you are already at the Origin Core Creation Realm with a Spatial Technique, the one thing restricting you before was the absence of a spatial technique, now that you no longer have this issue, the Spatial Intent should come to you naturally.]

Shen Yuan nodded before closing his eyes as he began deducing the spatial law, all which he had learned during the many times he has traversed through the Spatial portal of the sect.

He let his senses roam free as they felt the subtle shift in the space around him.

He'd already expanded his mastery through the Void Steps, Phase Drift, and Spatial Camouflage Veil—three techniques that not only increased his combat effectiveness but mastery over the Spatial Element as well.

They had given him firsthand experience in manipulating reality's very fabric, and now he would leverage that insight.

He recalled how he bent space to step forward silently, how he phased through solid objects without harming himself or the obstacle, how he vanished from sight by weaving a veil of refracted space.

All these feats were like letters in an alphabet he'd barely begun to read. Now, he was studying the grammar and syntax behind them.

For a long while, there was silence—no playful banter from Yue Lan, no restless shifting.

Shen Yuan's aura calmed until it felt like a tranquil lake.

Within that stillness, he sensed patterns he hadn't noticed before: the gentle curve of ambient Qi as it wrapped around objects, the subtle flow of Spatial Qi in different corners of the chamber.

He realized that what he had manipulated before was only the base surface of the Grand Space Dao.

"Fascinating," he murmured softly.

He could feel the shape of space itself—slight tensions, pockets of resistance and fluidity, tiny fluctuations that allowed his techniques to take form.

He started to trace these patterns in his mind, outlining them until they made sense, like piecing together fragments of a torn map.

He extended his senses further, pushing the range of his spatial perception. The Qi formed gentle waves as he "ran" his mental fingers through the air, and that motion made him feel the space wave like the sea, feeling how easily space complied or resisted.

To truly grasp Spatial Intent, he needed to pinpoint a singular concept that tied all his experiences together.

Suddenly, he noticed a delicate equilibrium. His sixth dantian, now filled with Spatial Qi at the Origin Core Creation level, pulsed in resonance with a faint pattern.

It wasn't random; it matched with the rune he had carved to train with the void traversing technique.

His mind cleared as he felt the space becoming friendlier to him, making it much easier for him to manipulate the space around him which he had to train months to even make use of.
