A Farmer's Journey To Immortality - Chapter 656: Tremendous Progress in Aether Cultivation Path P1

Chapter 656: Tremendous Progress in Aether Cultivation Path P1

Aksai looked at his own Aether Wisp sinking deep into the water with a thoughtful look on his face.

He was pleasantly surprised to find that he had progressed so much in the initial stage of the Aether Wisp Mastery Realm just by devouring the soul of the ghost who had possessed Loken.

What had arrived as a hidden curse had turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

“Hmm. I had planned to use Aether techniques to cultivate further in the Aether path. I always knew I would be left behind in this path if I didn’t do something extreme. After all, I can’t cultivate all three paths at once and expect to make huge progress in all of them at the same time.

“So I had decided to hunt for a higher-realm beast and replace the Verdant Elder in order to achieve instant progress in the Aether path. That way, my Mind Cultivation wouldn’t fall too far behind compared to the Spirit and Body paths.

“But who would have thought that I could improve my existing Aether Wisp in such a way?” Aksai paused for a bit and recalled the information shared by his clone in Acarnis before correcting his thoughts.

“No… I was looking at things the wrong way. It was my mistake to expect linear progress in Aether cultivation when I was already using the modified Aether Creation Technique developed by the rebels and aliens of the Aether World Acarnis.

“Maybe this is the real purpose of creating a modified Aether Wisp, which is different from the regular methods practiced in Acarnis. Since these methods were made by rebels and outsiders who wanted to break away from the established system, maybe this was the result they aimed for.

“I guess I didn’t know how to make full use of the modified Aether Beast because I haven’t paid much attention to my clone Aron there, who is still working hard in Acarnis. Once I settle things here, should I visit Acarnis and see what my clone has been doing?”

Aksai paused and immediately thought about the so-called aliens who had infiltrated Acarnis, then shook his head.

“No. I shouldn’t become overconfident just because I made some progress now. Acarnis is still too risky for someone like me who has barely become a Core Formation Lord.

“Entering that world without proper backup would be my death. The Spirit cultivators from other worlds would notice me instantly. For now, I should let Aron handle things there and gather information and resources for me.

“Going in person blindly when I know nothing about the enemy will definitely come back to bite me later. Not to mention, there’s a chance Aron’s cover would also get blown if I act hastily.

“As such, I need to be patient. Acarnis is not the only world out there right now. It won’t be too late to go there after I improve all three paths further, and with better equipment and more backup. I don’t want to get destroyed like my first clone the moment I enter that dangerous world.”

Aksai thought to himself and nodded. He then sighed and decided to check his progress.

The Spirit farmer could clearly feel that his Aether cultivation base had increased by many levels. So he asked the Neural Link Fabric to show him his personal information, and it projected a spectral window in front of his vision without a word.

“This… What kind of progress is this? Even the demonic path Spirit cultivators wouldn’t have experienced something like this. Should I start devouring strong souls from now on? I bet the Verdant Elder would be happy to devour more.

Kekeke. Thankfully, there are two more.”

Aksai raised his eyebrows in surprise, a pleasant smile growing on his face as he looked at his progress in the Aether cultivation path.

From an earlier single-digit percentage to a whopping 65% progress in the initial stage of the Wisp Mastery Aether realm, Aksai’s Mind Cultivation had taken a huge lead over his Spirit and Body cultivation paths.

And since the 3rd realm of Aether cultivation was even more demanding than the second, Aksai’s earlier progress in the same cultivation path was completely overshadowed.
