294 Uniqueness of Nameless Meditation Technique

Randy was satisfied with the changes brought about by the fusion of the two Synergy abilities. He briefly activated the newly fused Synergy ability, which had been implemented as part of the main [Synergy] skill.

Randy used the skill on his body, and he could feel the differences right away. He could easily feel that all the energies within his body were under his control, including his vitality. However, this time, he had the energy to increase the operating power of the activated [Synergy] skill, so he wasn’t worried about his previous mistake.

The only downside was that, in order to maintain control of all his various energies, the depletion of his psionic energy became faster as compared to controlling two energies at the same time. So far, the only energies he relied on the most were life energy and magical energy.

Magical energy was a minor or converted state of the sublime, supernatural energy called mana. Although the mana absorbed by most mages eventually gets converted into magical energy through different training methods in order for them to cast their spells and use their skills, that was only a derivative method used by mages or spell casters to bypass the incompatibility between mana and the human body.

Every living organism in a mana-filled world had a bit of mana within their bodies. While it was only a bit of mana, humans, in particular, due to incompatibility, couldn’t mobilize these minuscule amounts of mana in the same way they would naturally operate the vitality within their bodies. With that being the case, mana was useless for humans during the ancient eras. Only physical training was widely popular.

However, over time, various methods were devised in one way or another by extraordinary humans in order to train and mobilize their internal mana to attract their surrounding mana. Those training methods also allowed humans to convert their internal mana into magical energy, an energy similar in nature to the vitality of humans. This change allowed humans to gain access to an extra source of energy.

They were able to mobilize their magical energy to achieve many feats. At the same time, whenever their magical energy was low or depleted, they could supplement their magical energy vessel with the surrounding mana. They could also cast spells or conduct magic simply by borrowing the surrounding mana with only a little bit of magical energy.
That was the knowledge Randy acquired from the Black Tome about the history of the energy vessel of mana.


However, the method described in the Black Tome no longer applies to Randy who practices the Nameless Meditation Technique. A profound training method that allowed him to accumulate pure mana in his body to nurture every single cell within his body. Normally, such a feat would have been impossible because of incompatibility. However, the method described in the Nameless Meditation Technique was so profound that it could even make such an impossible feat feasible through its unique mana training method.

.....

Not to mention that all of it was achieved simply by meditation and breathing in a certain rhyme and sequence. The only downside was that it was challenging for one to persist with such a method without losing patience at some point. Despite that being a drawback, the training results were rewarding enough to keep one motivated to continue practicing if they are dedicated to their path to seek greater strength.

After training with the Nameless Meditation Technique, the mana particles that fused with Randy’s skin, flesh, and bones allowed him to naturally gain an affinity for pure mana. This would serve as a foundation and the source of all kinds of magical energies. As a result, he could now absorb mana without filtering or converting it into magical energy. Alternatively, he could convert it into a type of magical energy, such as fire, water, wind, earth, and so on.

That would allow him to amass copious mana in its sublime state without wasting time converting them into magical energies in case he didn’t have an elemental affinity. Having an elemental affinity would make it easier to attract said affinity when training mana.

The ability to amass pure mana was just one of the perks attained by training with the Nameless Meditation Technique.

The mana training method section of the Nameless Meditation Technique allows one to create a [Mana Seed]. Fortunately, this was already created for Randy by his system, saving him some time as a result. The [Mana Seed] would gradually germinate and eventually sprout like a seed of a plant once the mana saturation reaches certain levels during practice.

As for the difference between employing converted magical energy, and employing pure and sublime mana, that was something that would be more apparent in the future. At that time, when the total mana capacity increases to an unprecedented level, beyond that of normal mages or spell casters, the power of a casual spell or any form of utility would be enhanced to great proportions.

The newly condensed psionic energy was similar in the aspect of being more sublime in quality than the disseminated and disorganized mental energy originally generated by the cells in the brain. The reason was that the psionic energy coalesced from the many particles of mental energy that gradually got absorbed by the [Mental Seed] energy vessel.

As for soul energy and spiritual energy, Randy had yet to cultivate or train any of those forms of energy. Soul energy cultivation was unknown to anyone on earth, unlike spiritual energy cultivation, which was prevalent on earth. Therefore, he has a chance to cultivate his spiritual energy in the future.

However, according to the later sections of the Nameless Meditation Technique, although obscure, there was a method to cultivate the soul. However, that was only possible after he reached the exalted level of power that a human could achieve. Therefore, Randy couldn’t train his soul with his current level of power.

Randy cleared his wandering thoughts and took a deep breath to relax and calm his mind. He deactivated the [Synergy] skill, and then he proceeded to take out the storage pouch once again. Naturally, he hadn’t forgotten his previous intentions.

Although he was enthralled by the wondrous feeling of the [Synergy] skill, which allowed smooth regulation of the energies within his body, which also allowed him to gain momentary clarity in his mind due to the active regulation of his psionic energy in his [Mental Seed] within his brain, he didn’t want to waste any more time than necessary. After all, he had pressing matters to deal with at the moment.

…

Moments later.

In front of Randy, many glittering and shimmering rocks of varying colors were strewn on the floor of the Safe Room. He thought for a moment, and then he took out his first incarnation.

The incarnation’s consciousness was semi-destroyed after its fight with the Red-Scaled Demon. Therefore, he needed to create another consciousness for it. That part was very easy, as he only needed to duplicate his consciousness using his mental energy, or rather the new psionic energy.

Randy wondered how different it would feel to create his consciousness using his newly generated and abundant psionic energy rather than regular mental energy. He didn’t think too much about this matter. He immediately put it to the test.
