Chapter 1103: Comprehension & Growth

Ding!

<You have observed the mana circulation method of the [Divine Oceanheart Art], and your understanding of the mana cultivation technique has increased>

<You have observed the mana circulation method of the [Divine Oceanheart Art], and your understanding of the mana cultivation technique has increased>

<You have completely comprehended the [Divine Oceanheart Art], one of the top 10 most popular mana cultivation techniques practiced by Merfolk>

<Due to your superior understanding of mana cultivation, you have detected seven fundamental flaws in the [Divine Oceanheart Art] and thirty-one minor flaws in the target’s circulation pathway>

<Due to your superior understanding of mana cultivation, you have automatically corrected all the flaws, creating the superior mana cultivation technique [Heavenflow Oceanheart Scripture], which is completely suitable for the target>

While servicing his clients, Vaan constantly mastered miscellaneous knowledge as he remained in close proximity, prompting him to feel pleasantly surprised.

After all, if he could casually pick up all of his clients’ mana cultivation techniques and correct their flaws, he would have an incredibly solid foundation for teaching the Merfolk. Once the restriction on his Pomposity channel was lifted, he could earn an incredible amount of CP should he decide to venture into this field.

However, his greatest gain was the sublimation of understanding for his own mana cultivation.

Even though the mana cultivation techniques like the [Divine Oceanheart Art] or the superior [Heavenflow Oceanheart Scripture] were both made for Merfolk, they were still related to mana cultivation.

As such, Vaan was able to derive from his understanding of them to supplement his own nameless mana cultivation art. Given enough derivative understandings of the higher-level mana cultivation techniques, he would be able to develop his nameless mana cultivation art further.

"I can see that you practice the [Divine Oceanheart Art], my Lady. Unfortunately, it’s a pity..." Vaan suddenly mentioned without elaborating further.

Although the [Divine Oceanheart Art] was one of the most popular mana cultivation techniques, Lumivara, the tenth client, was still surprised that Vaan knew that she practiced it.

"What’s a pity, Lord Vaan?" Lumivara asked with interest, feeling uncomfortable with the pause that followed without an explanation.

"The [Divine Oceanheart Art] is only an incomplete technique, an introductory-level part of a superior mana cultivation technique," Vaan began to explain.

"Although this [Divine Oceanheart Art] can be cultivated to the Divine King rank, it only applies if the user has high compatibility and comprehension. Without the necessary revision, it’ll be difficult for people with low compatibility to reach such potential."

"That’s why, with the thirty-one minor flaws in your circulation pathway, you would find it quite difficult even to achieve a breakthrough to the Divine Knight rank, let alone the Divine King rank," Vaan casually stated.

Lumivara was immediately startled by Vaan’s words.

The [Divine Oceanheart Art] was a reputable, time-proven mana cultivation method for reaching the Divine King rank. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have remained as one of the top ten mana cultivation techniques among Merfolks.

However, it was also true that Lumivara had discovered many points of conflict in her mana circulation pathway when she practiced the [Divine Oceanheart Art] accordingly.

As such, she had sought out her peers and discovered that they had also experienced a number of these points of conflict when they practiced the [Divine Oceanheart Art]. Since many disciples experienced this problem, she had thought it was normal.

Now that Vaan had mentioned it and was even able to accurately list the number of conflict points in her circulation pathway, Lumivara realized that it was not normal at all.

More importantly, Vaan could figure out her mana cultivation technique and problem at a glance. Wouldn’t that imply that he had extraordinary insight into mana cultivation and knew how to solve the problem?

"Time’s up, my Lady."

"Ah? Alright..."

Just as Lumivara was about to make a special request, Vaan’s reminder stunned her. She went through the motions of paying the service fee with her ID card absentmindedly. Ŗâ𝐍𝙤₿ĘṤ

"Lord Vaan, do you know how to resolve my low compatibility issue?" Lumivara asked, feeling a sense of loss if she just left without knowing.

However, Vaan simply replied with a smile.

As a result, Lumivara could only leave without getting her answer. She understood that even if he did know, he had neither the time nor the reason to reach without receiving anything in return.

After all, he had a business to run, and there were still many clients waiting on him.

Nevertheless, Lumivara left the Heavenly Massage tent, feeling puzzled. She could only ponder her doubts on her own.

If Vaan had no intention of teaching her, why would he bother to comment on her problem in the first place?

In fact, Vaan was making preparations for the potential venture just in case. It was uncertain whether he would choose to enlighten others as a way of earning CP in the future. Still, it wouldn’t hurt to gather an eager student base with his occasional hints.

’Another six more clients, huh?’ Vaan mentally estimated the refined mana required to become a Rank 7 Warlock.

Although he had previous estimated it would take ten clients who were Peak Divine Knights to achieve it, most of his clients weren’t at that level. Even so, his magic cultivation had already surged to the late stage of Rank 6 from the early stage of Rank 5.

To achieve such growth in thirty hours was extremely shocking, enough to make anyone feel envious and worthless.

However, Vaan didn’t feel any joy or satisfaction with this growth.

’Although my mana cultivation is growing rapidly, such speedy progress is not necessarily a good thing. Without a superior cultivation technique, my foundation won’t be solid,’ Vaan thought.

In a contest based purely on magic, he would likely lose to other geniuses of the same level.

Of course, there was still a silver lining. Mana cultivation was much more forgiving than other paths. Even if he cultivated a superior mana cultivation technique much later to solidify his foundation, the loss of mana would be minimal.

As such, Vaan didn’t need to suppress his mana cultivation intentionally.

No matter how much growth his mana cultivation experienced, it still wouldn’t compare to the development of his Heaven-Swallowing Space. Previously, it was the size of a city, making it feel quite cramp to accommodate his army of Death Eaters without ruining his magical plant collection, among other things stored.

However, under the constant supply of pure mana from the Myriad Sea God Palace, it had already grown to a size comparable to the Pangean continent.

It was just a matter of time before its size became comparable to an entire realm.

’Such a huge space is somewhat senseless, unless I can transform this Heaven-Swallowing Space into a life-accommodating world like the Divine Worlds of Divine Cultivators...’ Vaan contemplated as he received his next client.
