The two words were entirely new to Lin Mu, and yet he felt an unprecedented familiarity with it.


    "Omnicore Ascendancy… Take the very elements as the core of your being and ascend through existence!" Lin Mu chanted the mnemonic that rang within his ears.


    Dense amount of information flooded Lin Mu''s mind, as the understanding about Omnicore Ascendancy rose.


    This was the technique that he had obtained from the altar after its transformation.


    And simr to the Nine Divine Sutra''s that he had obtained, this wasn''t exactly a cultivation technique or even a skill. Rather it was an auxiliary technique that focused on changing one''s very being.


    ''If the Nine Divine Sutra''s were an auxiliary to the Qi cultivation, then this Omnicore Ascendancy seems like an auxiliary to body cultivation!'' Lin Mu understood.


    It was strange to him as the methods prescribed in the technique seemed to be unbelievable, absurd even.


    The technique directed one to condense seven elemental cores within one''s body with each core having its own location. Some of these locations Lin Mu was familiar with and rted them with the Five Treasures realm, but there was more to it than that.


    The fire core was located at the position of the heart.


    The Water core was positioned between the kidneys.


    The Metal core was positioned between the lungs.


    The Wood core was located at the position of the liver


    The Earth core was located at the position of the Spleen.


    Then there was the wind core that was located in one''s diaphragm and the lightning core that was located within one''s brain!


    The sessful creation of each core would have a miraculous effect on one''s body. With each elemental core that was fully formed, one would be able to get a natural affinity to that element.


    ''Doesn''t this mean… I can basically have an affinity to all these seven elements?'' Lin Mu was stunned at the prospect.


    After all, having an affinity to seven elements like this was something incredibly rare in the universe.


    And this was no normal affinity, but on the level of innate affinity!


    It was basically the same as one having an entirely new body!


    Which was exactly what the technique said it could do.


    Lin Mu couldn''t help but feel excited at this, as it only meant that it would raise his potential to a level that was never seen before. But then when he saw the requirements for cultivating the Omnicore Ascendancy technique, it was as if cold water was poured all over him.


    ''Pure elemental resources… essences… Qis… Dao traces? Dao Insights!? What even…" Lin Mu was shook at what the technique demanded.


    Technically speaking, the technique could make use of any kind of elemental energy whether it be very weak or not. It could even absorb spirit Qi and grow, but the rate of growth would be very slow.<novelnext></novelnext>


    Upto until this point, Lin Mu could still digest it. After all, a great technique like this must have high requirements. But then he saw the other conditions that this technique brought along with it.


    "I… can''t use any of those energies?" Lin Mu muttered in disbelief.


    All the energies and resources that Lin Mu used, whatever form they might be in would be unavable to him.


    ording to the Omnicore Ascendancy Technique, all the energies were to be condensed into the core and they were to be left untouched. The umtion of these energies would bring no direct increase to one''s strength either.


    It was simr to having a mountain of gold, but being unable to use it,


    "Only when the core is fully formed would it''s true effects be shown. It would bring a transformation of my body, and grant me affinity to that element along with more benefits." Lin Mu muttered to himself.


    Now this was a tall order for Lin Mu, as it basically meant he was doing extra cultivation that would be useless for a long time. This would massively raise his need for resources and if he spent them on this, his own cultivation would stagnate.


    Lin Mu continued to go through the information and understood further details.


    ''So I can choose where I direct the energies too… ~phew~ that''s better than not growing in strength at all.'' Lin Mu felt relieved.


    Since he could decide when to cultivate it, Lin Mu reckoned he would have to split his attention between normal cultivation and the cultivation of Omnicore Ascendancy technique.


    "I''ll have to figure out the schedule for itter." Lin Mu shook his head.


    Just as he had thought before, his workload had certainly increased with the addition of the second ring. While it would be ultimately beneficial to him in the end, it was still a daunting task.


    It was simr to a student who was in middle school and they were looking at doing a doctorate in the future.


    It would take many years and multiple steps in reaching that point, but the benefit it would bring one would be massive.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    ''At least I can form all the cores at the same time. I don''t have to select only one and stick to it. Guess this is simr to the Five Treasures Realm in that aspect.'' Lin Mu thought to himself.


    He almost felt like this was the improved form of the Five Treasures realm, but at the same time not. After all, this didn''t bring any gradual increase to one''s strength and neither did it enhance one''s toughness.


    The Omnicore Ascendancy Technique was a technique that brought forth qualitative change rather than quantitative change.


    It might not raise one''s cultivation base, but it would improve one''s potential exponentially. And if one''s potential was better, cultivation would be faster and easier too.


    Even if one considered theprehension of the Dao, having innate affinity to elements would assist in that two.


    The Omnicore Ascendancy Technique covered both the absorption of various energies as well asprehension of the Daos within its scope!


    "That… was a lot to grasp." Lin Mu held his head as the information flood finally subsided.
