Chapter 16 - Daotian Combat Technique!
“Bang!” “Bang!” …
The two engaged in an intense fight.
It was mostly Lin Daotian attacking, while Su Zimo didn’t counter; she only defended or dodged.
Despite this, Lin Daotian was already gasping for breath.
About 10 minutes later, Su Zimo stopped.
“That’s enough. I’ve got a basic understanding of your condition. You have a strong physique, able to contend with ordinary seventh-level demons, and some martial experience, but not much! You can handle ordinary people, but you’re no match for experts!”
Panting, Lin Daotian replied, “Teacher, you’re absolutely right!”
Su Zimo assumed a stance and said, “Next, I’ll teach you a combat technique! If you can master this technique and wield it with flexibility, then at your level, you’ll be nearly unbeatable! In other words, you’ll be invincible at this tier!”
Lin Daotian was shocked. “That powerful?”
“More powerful than you imagine! If combined with breathing techniques and visualization methods, achieving the unity of intent, energy, and form, it can not only strengthen your body and unleash tremendous combat power, but also promote genetic evolution, allowing a leap in life itself!”
Lin Daotian was even more astonished: “That terrifying?”
“Of course. You’ll understand once you practice. Now, let me teach you the moves—watch closely!”
Su Zimo taught with full attention, and Lin Daotian learned earnestly.
Perhaps due to the genetic enhancement serum, Lin Daotian’s mind seemed sharper, and he picked up the technique exceptionally quickly. After only two repetitions, he had mastered the form, exuding an aura of power.
“Not bad! Now, onto the breathing technique!”
“The breathing technique, as the name suggests, involves drawing in energy/qi from the world around you, and then expelling waste from your body. With each breath, let your entire body move in rhythm, allowing the energy to reshape you!”
“If you perfect this breathing technique, you’ll be able to go without food, just like the immortal sages of legend!”
“That sounds amazing!”
Lin Daotian followed Su Zimo’s instructions and started practicing.
He quickly got the hang of it. With each breath in and out, it felt like all his tissues and cells were coming alive, madly absorbing energy from the environment.
“That’s it! Keep that feeling steady and blend it into your daily life! In this way, walking, sitting, or lying down, you’ll be cultivating without realizing it and growing stronger all the time!”
“Teacher, I understand!”
“Good. Now, I’ll teach you the visualization technique.”
“This visualization technique is more challenging. Listen carefully! It involves training your spirit. First, you select an object as a reference and imagine that you are it, breathing and moving as it does!”
“The more vividly you imagine and the more naturally you blend, the better the results!”
“This technique works best when paired with the breathing technique! For instance, if you’re absorbing the energy of the sun, it’s best to visualize the sun itself—this way, the efficiency will increase significantly!”
“I understand!”
Lin Daotian closed his eyes and imagined a blazing sun in his mind.
He became the sun, and the sun became him. He aspired to pulse and shine, radiating energy to all things.
At that moment, the sunlight around him seemed to sense his presence and directed its rays toward him.
Bathed in sunlight, Lin Daotian looked like a golden Buddha.
Seeing this, Su Zimo was stunned.
“As expected of the master, he grasped it so quickly!”
Lin Daotian continued cultivating for an entire hour before stopping.
“This feels incredible! After practicing, I feel energized all over, brimming with power, and my body feels a bit stronger! This is amazing!” Lin Daotian exclaimed with delight.
“Exactly. This technique is extraordinary! You’re only just starting; you haven’t fully experienced its profundities. As you grow stronger, you’ll grasp its mysteries even more!”
“For example, each breakthrough in this technique can increase combat power by 20%! And theoretically, this technique has no limit. It grows exponentially, so how far you can go depends entirely on you!”
Su Zimo explained with a smile.
Lin Daotian gasped. “Each breakthrough increases combat power by 20%!”
A 20% increase per breakthrough didn’t sound like much at first. But remember, this technique compounds like interest.
(Nine levels with 10 sub-levels:Ordinary, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, King, Emperor, and Sovereign.)
In other words, after reaching the first level, combat power increases to 120%.
Upon reaching the second level, combat power rises to 144%.
At the third level, it increases to 172.8%.
At the fourth level, it reaches 207.36%, nearly doubling in power!
And this technique has no limits—it can continue being cultivated indefinitely!
His strength will keep growing as well!
“What a terrifying technique! What’s the name of this technique?”
“The Daotian Technique!”
“Daotian…” Lin Daotian paused. “Isn’t that the same name as me… Could it have been created by a predecessor named Daotian?”
“That’s right! You’re quite clever!” Su Zimo couldn’t help but chuckle.
Fool, that predecessor is you!
In your past life, you ascended to the peak of human evolution. The genetic enhancement serums no longer affected you, so you developed this fearsome technique based on your own circumstances.
The most extraordinary aspect of this technique is its limitless potential for enhancing combat power. It can even absorb energy from the universe to strengthen oneself.
At its peak potential, every cell in one’s body becomes like a star.
With each breath, one can absorb the energy of dozens of black holes.
Under the starlit sky, across the universe, there was nothing that could bind you, no one who could surpass you!
The name “Lin Daotian” became synonymous with invincibility!
Now, I’m passing this technique to you ahead of time—what will you become in the future?
Just thinking about it makes me excited!
Lin Daotian was also filled with anticipation, feeling that this technique suited him perfectly, as if it had been designed just for him.
If he kept cultivating, maybe he could match that legendary predecessor named “Daotian.”
“Teacher Su, I have one more question!”
“Go ahead!”
“You said this technique can promote genetic evolution and a leap in life… does that mean I won’t need genetic enhancement serums anymore? I could just rely on this technique?”
“At first, you’ll still rely on genetic enhancement serums! After all, this technique mainly depends on cosmic energy to grow stronger. That energy is extremely violent, and your body is still too fragile to absorb much of it!”
“So when will I be able to give up the genetic serums and rely solely on this technique?”
“When you can fly to the sun to cultivate!”
Lin Daotian: “…”
Fly to the sun to cultivate?
Teacher Su, you have high hopes for me! That’s good!
“Alright, stop daydreaming. Let’s continue cultivating!”
“Got it!”
