Maybe? Book 3 isn't us so doesn't matter and book 4 maybe??
I just know book 2 is supposed to have it.
That's neat then. If I absorb/copy too much of someone's memory, like Zhao's 1,200 years or even try my luck with Eldra my personality would be overwritten?
I assume then someone can be "selective" towards which memories they can copy to avoid burnout, but to be selective without risk is a matter of difference of AP/Mastery. So a 10,000 AP(Mid book 2 MC) trying to copy a 15,000 AP(Zhao Yang) would be extremely risky, is that right?
Anyway I'm starting to rethink about corrupt cultivation now. If I just can copy their paths.
Tell me, Blood, Death and Demonic paths are intrinsically tied to Corrupted Chi, which would be their fuel, who can these paths be fueled and developed by Heavens aligned/"normal" Chi?
Since Scholar Taio explained they're, fundamentally; Blood Chi as the path of the Alive. Death Chi as the path of the Dead. Demonic Chi as the path of the Spirits.
So, if I copy OG Taio/Some Death-Lord memories and start to research these paths by my own, wouldn't it work too?
How exactly? I doubt any of the branches would help with learning a millennial Archon custom technique.
Unless I kill him and use the Death Path to do something similar to what we can do to Hyesong(?). Don't know if would work though.
Without actually doing what they do you wouldn't be Able to actually do much you need to be corrupted so sure you would become the greatest identifier of demonic mfers knowing what they do get them captured no everything about them but without actually practicing the path and cooking your soul you aren't really getting it.
I think so? I mean I really don't know, but if we listen to my boi bandit Taio, he has that bloodcleave ability or however he calls it, that literally kills the person, and steals all of their memories, fightings, styles, everything. He said that you get all the years of experience, and that that's how he used to do it.
When you have them in your head, and when you're in that town where the trials are, they'll tell you to go to the graveyard, where you can learn this ability.
Taio never mentioned a limit to this ability, so I suppose it could be done on anyone
He meant in a lesser way only.
I don't think he specified? I can't recall, but I don't think that detail was mentioned
I was referring to you lol.I don't think he specified? I can't recall, but I don't think that detail was mentioned
but yeah Cursed style can do what demonic can do without needing to dirty their hands to that degree they really need mastery and power the person being weak enough.
Also on another topic Anon clarified sage status in a style rn would be like adept in book 2 as a starting Archon which is why I used to say the Mastery is only a mechanical progress and not equal to the lore.
True, true, but unless we're the strongest of the strongest, the cursed style wouldn't work.
Demon cultivation is the second option
No, I'm getting it. What I'm asking now, basically, is if only the "fuel", corrupted Chi, is the problem, or if the paths are also inherently corrupted and cannot be done without the "corrupted fuel".
Like, Blood Chi with blood, essence and body. Demonic with spiritual manipulation and Death with necromantic powers.
Are the paths inherently corrupted too and cannot be researched & specialized in without the corrupted Chi? Is basically that what I'm asking now.
They are inherently corrupted that is what I meant.
I mean, Thunderfaller is already impressively strong. And without a doubt has the potential to ascend without the need of corrupt Chi. Probably only Jack is his true par over time(Disregarding JDFs).True, true, but unless we're the strongest of the strongest, the cursed style wouldn't work.
Demon cultivation is the second option
The only reason I do corrupt is for the techniques indeed. Who don't want more three whole paths to study and specialise in? Specially for the curious and knowledge seeking ones.
I don't think we know that tbh. Because when you meet that cat yokai chick, I mean she explains how her continent uses death chi and all, and there she is, alive and well, alongside many others of her continent.
So unless we have all the information down, we can't really say this or that, because I don't see how, for example, inner hellscape couldn't be made larger, to contain the corrupt chi. Or as it was explained byyyyyyyy scholar Taio I think? The corrupt chi is the discarded chi in a way, that "becomes" corrupt because heavens deemed it so. The explanation was iffy and vague, because if the corrupt chi was so bad and all, why wouldn't they just exterminate it from existence?
Imo, there's too many ifs and variables for a simple answer
The more I look at how Bubblebrew is described the more I just imagined it to be a soda.
Did Herbalist Father Auraclash really just invented soda?

Same, I'll not express any fixed thought about it soon, considering we are in the first book and there are more three(at least) until the end.
If anything, I'd say that if these paths are inherently corrupted and cannot, indeed, be used through the Heaven aligned Chi, would mean the Heavens cannot operate through the Spiritual, Alive and Dead paths of corruption.
About Sun Hana is because the nation she comes from specializes on the Death Path & their very ambient Chi is already Death Aligned.
Corrupt Chi is actually the Chi that is unbalanced and outside the Celestial Order. Corruption is everything that is outside the celestial Order, for example;
A spirit that start to think about possessing someone and grows malice. It starts to grow outside the Celestial Order and generate, by its own, corrupted Chi. Until eventually it becomes a Fiend. → Demonic/Spiritual path.
Same thing for someone who dies with strong feelings of regret and hate, it returns as one of the Fiend kind, outside of the Celestial Order of course. → Death Path.
As for why the Heavens don't destroy the Corrupted Chi, I thought initially it was because they didn't care at all, as Scholar Taio comments about how the corrupt Chi isn't under the Heavens sight. But if the paths are inherently corrupts and cannot be operated by Heavens aligned Chi, I'd say it's because they can't then.
I assume one is from the Desdemona event, but where are you getting the other two from?
Yeah? What did you picture it to be before that lol. It's a fizzy drink made from fruit XD.
Would White Tiger Chi potentially offer an avenue for a Demonic MC to avoid being smited?
It does seems a little dumb from a IF writing perspective to make an umavoidable punishment for players who made a decision several books ago when none of this information outlined was available.
One from Desdemona quest as you said, then one from Foreman Gong if you ask him to teach you about commerce and the last one is from Guiren's group if you were saved by them in the fight with Jack (you need to ask them for a part of the loot in their hospital room).
It's only for book 5 really and no it isn't even hidden if you do talk with the community and well you already know now while book 1 is still going on so that point doesn't apply.
As for white tiger chi nah it is unnatural and actually something native to our world not available in heavens so it wouldn't make a difference.
What I do think is white tiger itself might be some experiment of an Ascended who did it before our world had learned Cultivation as we already know the Ascended come from the entire cosmos so a good chance of it being that old of an experiment so people think of it as a pillar while it might not be one.
That said if the other 4 auspicious beasts exists then Maybe it is actually is a pillar of this world still it is described as unnatural.
Ascended have 5 styles they don't have sakura's style because that style isn't natural either.We will really have to wait and see how it all goes.
