Chapter 275: The Birth of the Eternal Life Technique (Third Update)
Chapter 275: The Birth of the Eternal Life Technique (Third Update)
The next day, at the same time, four o'clock in the afternoon.
Xiao Lang Li, Sakura, Tomoyo, and Kero once again arrived at Jerry's Magic House.
However, today, Xiao Lang Li took on the role of the teacher, though it might be a bit of a stretch to call him a teacher. Given Xiao Lang Li's age and experience, he couldn't provide a detailed explanation of Daoist fundamentals like Jerry did with Magic basics the previous day.
Jerry was proficient in the three major Magic systems and had attended a proper Magic school like Hogwarts, so he knew exactly how to teach beginners like Xiao Lang Li.
Xiao Lang Li, at only ten years old, had learned Daoism quite well due to his talent and had a solid foundation. However, asking him to be a teacher was a bit too much.
Therefore, today's Eastern Daoist teaching session mainly involved Jerry pulling out the dozen or so Daoist books he had read the previous day. Using Xiao Lang Li's knowledge, Jerry aimed to clarify the parts he didn't understand.
The entire process involved Jerry asking questions, and Xiao Lang Li acting as a living dictionary to provide answers, such as explaining Daoist-specific terms or common knowledge not found in the books.
As for Sakura and Tomoyo, due to Xiao Lang Li's limited expertise and the complexity of the Daoist texts, they decided to skip the Eastern Daoist lessons and instead looked for some interesting Magic books on the shelves.
They weren't like Xiao Lang Li, who aspired to surpass Clow Reed. They didn't need to learn both Eastern and Western magic; it was enough for them to excel in Magic.
Sakura studied Magic to better collect the Clow Cards and to make life more convenient with Household Magic and Cooking Magic.
Tomoyo learned Magic mainly because she wanted to study with Sakura and take photos of her learning Magic. She wasn't particularly interested in Magic itself.
Kero, on the other hand, was completely engrossed in the various sweets Jerry had prepared.
With Xiao Lang Li acting as a living dictionary, Jerry, aided by the Mind Refresh and Merlin's Ring, quickly managed to understand most of the Essence Return Secret Canon.
As previously mentioned, Eastern Daoist techniques and Western Magic are just different forms of expression, but essentially, they are the same.
So, once Jerry understood the specific content of the Essence Return Secret Canon, he was able to start practicing it quickly, thanks to his solid foundation in Magic theory.
When he completed his first practice of the Essence Return Secret Canon, he couldn't help but exclaim:
"Clow Reed is truly a genius!"
While the Essence Return Secret Canon couldn't grant Eternal Life or improve physical constitution, its efficiency in cultivating magic power was truly astonishing.
If he had to compare it to the Meditation Technique, the Essence Return Secret Canon was about three times more efficient.
No wonder Xiao Lang Li, at only ten years old, already had such impressive magical power.
It turned out that in addition to his high talent, the cultivation method also played a significant role.
However, in terms of value, the Meditation Technique was still superior. The ability to grant Eternal Life alone made it incomparable, even if the Essence Return Secret Canon were ten times stronger.
Even so, the Essence Return Secret Canon was likely the most valuable technique in the world of Magic and cultivation.
Jerry even suspected that the Li family moved to Hong Kong because they were concerned that after Clow Reed's death, others might covet the Essence Return Secret Canon.
This only made Jerry more determined to spend time merging the Meditation Technique with the Essence Return Secret Canon.
A week later, a small truck parked in front of Jerry's house.
It turned out that the thousands of Taoist texts sent by the Li family had finally arrived. Xiao Lang Li had hired a small truck to transport all the Taoist texts to Jerry's place.
Jerry's face lit up with a broad smile as he looked at the stack of Taoist texts.
He knew that with these thousands of Taoist texts as a foundation, whether it was the research on the Clow Cards or the integration of cultivation methods, significant breakthroughs would be made in the coming period.
Moreover, after mastering the Eastern Taoist system, he would be a master of four major systems, and his overall magic power would undoubtedly see a substantial increase.
August 31st.
It had been nearly half a year since Jerry arrived in this world, and almost three months since he began to study Eastern Taoist magic.
After three months of research on the Eastern Taoist system and the Essence Return Secret Canon, he finally managed to completely integrate the Meditation Technique with the Essence Return Secret Canon.
Closing his eyes, he sat cross-legged on the Merlin Array and began to circulate the newly integrated cultivation method.
The energy permeating the spatial dimension was drawn into his body by a powerful suction force, seeping through the pores of his skin into his limbs and organs. After a series of complex transformations and purifications, it transformed into magic power and was stored within his body.
After circulating for about two hours, he stopped with a satisfied expression.
"It should have a new name. What should I call it?"
The new method, after integration, no longer fit the names Meditation Technique or Essence Return Secret Canon. So, Jerry decided to give it a new name.
After thinking for a while, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"How about calling it the Eternal Life Technique?"
The Meditation Technique, fused with the Essence Return Secret Canon, greatly improved the cultivation efficiency. As long as a Mage's talent wasn't too poor, reaching level 300 wouldn't be too difficult.
In other words, as long as one learned the new integrated cultivation method, they would most likely achieve eternal life.
Therefore, Jerry felt that calling it the Eternal Life Technique was more appropriate.
After experimenting with the effects of the Eternal Life Technique, Jerry picked up a Clow Card from the table beside him.
This was the "Time" card, which he had been researching for a while but had not made much progress with.
So far, Sakura, Xiao Lang Li, and Tomoyo had successfully sealed eleven Clow Cards: Sword, Flower, Shield, Time, Power, Fog, Float, Storm, Erase, Light, and Move.
Since they were no longer competing for the Clow Cards, the three of them would almost daily gather at Jerry's place to study and research magic, growing much closer. In particular, after getting to know each other better, Sakura and Xiao Lang Li's relationship had significantly improved.
Therefore, in addition to studying magic at Jerry's place, Xiao Lang Li would also help Sakura capture the Clow Cards, claiming it was to practice the newly learned magic.
Sakura and Tomoyo, having learned a lot of magic from Jerry, had also become quite powerful. With the three of them working together, sealing the Clow Cards became much simpler.
Jerry, apart from spending most of his time researching the Taoist texts and creating new cultivation methods, also devoted some time to studying the Clow Cards.
As his understanding of the Eastern Taoist system grew, even though he spent less time each day on the Clow Cards, his efficiency improved significantly.
Therefore, he had almost mastered the eleven new cards Sakura had sealed, except for the "Time" card, which controlled time.
