Chapter 1222 - Heavenly Mountain Refining Technique

'He is good with his words.'

The old man Mostror was impressed with Ajax's reply to his request.

He didn't agree to listen to his words and at the same time, he didn't reject it while asking for the request.

'A cultivator should be like this unless promising things right away without hearing the request like that bastard Aron.'

He thought about his sworn brother and shook his head before saying, "I want you to never show off your true strength in front of others unless it is absolutely necessary for you to use it."

'Huh?'

Ajax didn't expect such words as he was expecting some kind of dramatic past that needs revenge.

However, his master is asking him to hide his strength.

"Can you promise me that you will never kill a low-level king realm cultivator until you become a peak elite general realm cultivator?"

The old man didn't bother with Ajax's reaction as he asked Ajax to promise him about it.

After observing Ajax's battle prowess for the last few days, Mostror learned that Ajax had no problem in killing low-level king realm cultivators and he could even fight on an equal footing with a mid-level king realm cultivator without any problem.

What's more, currently, Ajax's cultivation was only at level 2 elite general realm.

'If I compare Ajax with Aron, he is even a bigger monster than Aron and if he made even a slightest mistake, he would fall much sooner than Aron.'

There was a reason why Mostror even decided to leave the organization he helped grow for the last hundred years and it was that he didn't want Ajax to fall like his sworn brother and wanted Ajax to grow even more powerful to ascend to the realm that his sworn brother failed to reach.

"I understood, master."

Ajax really understood what his master was worried about.

Moreover, Ajax was hiding his strength from the beginning and not even his friends knew about his true strength or the number of summons he had in his spirit consciousness.

"A genius is nothing if he is killed before he has grown. So, use only a portion of your strength in front of everyone and keep your true powers hidden until your enemies let their guards down for you to kill them in a secluded place."

Mostror nodded his head that his disciple understood things without explaining much. So, he nodded his head.

"Let's get to the main business now."

After that, the old man said, "Since you already have a powerful bloodline, you can just use the bloodline energy you gained so far to strengthen it and if you need more, you can continue killing the spirit beasts in the bloodline grounds."

"As for the bloodline awakening potion, consume it after you become a level 10 elite general realm cultivator."

"It's time to change your cultivation techniques."

After saying a few more things, the old man said that Ajax needed to change his cultivation technique.

"Master, there is no need for that. I already have a…"

"No, I already checked your speed in absorbing the essence of nature. Even though I don't know where you are getting so much essence of nature to fight for such a long time, it is definitely not related to your cultivation technique, right?"

Before Ajax could say anything, he was interrupted by the old man Mostror.

"Y..yes."

Ajax flustered a little as he nodded his head.

The reason Ajax was able to fight for such a long time was because of the special spiritual gourd that has a capacity to store 100000 units of the essence of nature.

As for his main cultivation technique, Heaven and earth refining technique, it was not bad. It could be even considered a good technique in any normal world; however, from the view of the greater world's cultivators, it was just a below-average cultivation technique.

So, the old man said that it was finally time for Ajax to change his main cultivation technique.

"I know it was a good cultivation technique for you. But, it won't be good for you anymore once you reach the King realm."

The old man explained a little bit as he continued, "Since there is still time for you to become a king realm cultivator, you can take this time to cultivate a new cultivation technique."

"I will do as the master suggests."

Ajax felt his master' words were right and nodded his head.

"Good."

The old man was satisfied with how Ajax didn't have sentiments with the cultivation techniques.

There were a few acquaintances, they held onto the same cultivation techniques for various reasons, making their cultivation speed slower with time.

"One should know when to change the cultivation techniques in the cultivation journey."

Mostror nodded his head and lightly touched Ajax's forehead with his finger.

"These are the three good cultivation techniques for absorbing the essence from nature. Check the brief information on them and select one of them."

Ajax felt some foreign knowledge was entering into his head; however, when he heard the old man's voice, he calmed down and closed his eyes to check the details of the three cultivation techniques.

<Heavenly mountain refining technique>

A legend grade refining technique that helps the cultivator absorb the essence of nature from a radius of 100 kilometers at the first level.

Other than that, it gives an additional attack power and defence power to the cultivator when he is standing on the ground.

Soon, Ajax saw the brief information on the first cultivation technique which made Ajax surprised.

His current main cultivation technique was not worth mentioning in front of the <Heavenly mountain refining technique> because even at level 3, his main cultivation technique was compared to the effect of the level 1 Heavenly mountain refining technique.

'Moreover, it also gives an additional effect. It is not a bad one to select; however, let's take the decision after checking out the  other two cultivation techniques.'

With that thought in his mind, Ajax checked the other two cultivation techniques, making him more and more surprised.
