Chapter 2 - Red Gods Eye

But when he was about to start cultivating the Purple Demon Eye he thought whether he could do the same thing he did for the Mysterious Heaven Technique by changing the circulation pathways filter out the energies. He then ran a few simulations in his mind regarding the pathways and the various energies, since it was the Purple Qi which he was absorbing it proved more difficult compared to the Mysterious Heaven Technique after a while the sun rose up a faint trace of Purple Qi seemed to emit from it.

Just like it happened for the Mysterious Heaven Technique he was able to slowly choose the energies beneficial to him. After the energy stopped he too stopped cultivating.

He then heard a system prompt similar to the one he heard before,

[Purple Demon Eye upgraded to Red Gods Eye]

[Red Gods Eye]: Similar to Purple Demon Eye but can only be cultivated by divine energies from the Purple Qi. A greater increase in range and function. Can be used to develop spiritual sense at the later stages….

After cultivating the Red Gods Eye, his eyes slightly had a red tinge to it. Unlike the purple tinge from the Purple Demons Eye which soon disappears the red tinge still remained even after he stopped cultivating.

He dismissed it as a side effect and didn't care too much about that and it was only a light shade of red so he didn't mind. Unfortunately he wasn't able to find ways to upgrade the other skills since only these two were energy based and the rest of them were mostly dependent on these two skills so until he was able to make a proper breakthrough into the first layers of these skills they would mostly not affect the other skills yet. So he decided to shelve this for a later time.

Seeing that he could not cultivate the eye technique now he continued to cultivate the Forbidden Heaven Skill which showed better progress for now, he knew that until he finishes the awakening ceremony and gets a spirit ring he wouldn't be able to break through to the next level.

After cultivating the Mysterious Heaven Skill for a while he then started to practice the other skills, he first started with Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon a control technique. There wasn't much to practice in that so he then continued with Ghost Shadow Perplexing Step a movement technique, after he was done practicing he was soon able to move half a meter with one step, this progress was mainly due to his memories from the Tang Sect and to progress further would require time and effort.

He then started with the Mysterious Jade Hands which requires Mysterious Heaven technique as support, when he started to practice it he got a notification,

[Mysterious Jade Hands upgraded to Forbidden Jade Hands]

He wasn't too surprised with the system prompt instead he was ecstatic as that would mean techniques which rely on the Forbidden Heaven Technique would also be upgraded.

He then got back to practice…

Soon Five Years passed by and he made significant progress in his cultivation and techniques,

________________________

His only regret was that he didn't have any hidden weapons, due to that his practice on Hidden Weapon Hundred Separation was stagnating, but with his previous life's memory he didn't have to worry much about that. He had many regrets in his previous life which he was unable to fulfil like reaching the peak of the Mysterious Heaven Skill, using the Buddha Fury Lotus and many more.

Today was the awakening ceremony and he was waiting for old Jack to come and take him for it, he knew that it would be tough to convince his dad to let him go as he doesn't want him to live a life as a spirit master.

A few weeks back he asked his dad to teach him forging but he only told him to hammer a piece of metal ten thousand times before he could ask him again.

Tang Hao, was surprised that he could actually pick up the hammer but after that he didn't say anything and went back to sleep.

Three days back, Old Jack, the village elder came and told that he would have to participate in the awakening ceremony now that he was 6 years old giving him a reminder and arguing with his father before he went back.

When he showed him the piece of iron after hammering it ten thousand times, he was told to reduce it to the size of a fist before he could ask him for anything more.

He didn't mind and continued to hammer the piece of metal. Though he knew the reason he was telling him to do so he still followed what he said as it would be weird if he suddenly learns the Tang Clan's hammering technique.

But this time he used the hammering technique he learnt from his previous life as he wanted his father to teach him something different. He only remembered this from what he read from his previous life. This sort of technique was difficult but with the help of a little spirit power he was able to do it.
