Man this makes Qi so goddamn annoying it's hilarious. You first have to find her, then you have to hit her, then when you finally hit her it's blocked by a very potent living dress, then when you finally get past all the defenses that way and land what should be a killing blow she fully reforms from whatever pile of mush you made her brimming with energy and you have to start all over again. I love it.

It's a dream based technique, so I assume the extra Qi comes drawn from the liminal just like our boost moves like joyous toast and lunatic crescendo did the same. The liminal seems like an excellent place to draw from as long as you have a potent enough narrative to do so.

Thousand Ring Fortress also had (a much much more limited and gradual) qi regen as part of it, so part of it presumably is drawing on ambient wood qi, for a broad enough definition of 'ambient'

Honestly somewhat surprised this is a Yin art.
LQ has seen Sovereigns fight and be a part of it most stuff looks lacking in comparison.
It feels like both techniques are inspired by Kohatu and the insights she provided LQ. They're also really bullshit and make LQ even harder to kill.
Thanks for the analysis. The concepts fit LQ a lot better now which is really important. The boost to the armor trait is nice, sucks to loose the Impertubable Soul trait chance but hopefully LQ will get the chance to get something just as great.
It's some really insane bullshit and LQ is really impressive for a Third Realm cultivator to the point where I agree you pretty much need to have shen to take her. But thing is other people are also bullshit and will have ways of getting to her.

Because I like the word play on thousand ring fortress, and the alteration , while Treasure of the Broken Pillar sounds boring and doesn't speak to me in terms of the words used.

Yeah, I don't really understand why "Broken Pillar" has to be there. It has weight to it, but it's also not personal enough for Ling Qi.

I was so tempted to suggest something like
Benevolent Boreal Bastion
But I was concerned that folks might not like the allocation of alliteration almighty.
What about something simple like Unending Growth Persisting? Or Growing Dreams Evolving?
[X] Evergreen Succession
Apparently, the life cycle of a forest is called a succession and it seems fairly in line with LQ's thoughts on forest groves. The whole tree thing might just be the metaphor for [PERSIST] but the metaphor is how LQ is perceiving the idea so I think it makes sense to reference the life cycle of trees somehow. Especially since the end stage of the life cycle is the death of the old growth to make way for the new growth which ties into her concept on winter doing away with the old so that the new may grow come spring.
Edit: For those who prefer an inside joke that only makes sense in English, Evergreen Succession -> ES -> Emerald Seas. The art now references the Emerald Seas and its cycle of dynasties as well. Burn away the old and rotten to make way for the new and young. Let's say that also references Cai Shenhua burning away the Hui's corruption so that the Emerald Seas may grow anew, and the Emerald Sea's new ascendent position.

Just felt like throwing ideas on the table. I like EGO abbreviation since it feels willpower related.

I'm a little confused by this. Long for what? Death? More suffering? It's very unclear.

As in, suffer for a long time.

[X] Roots of Paradise
Symbolism is that the foundations of a paradise should be like this. Deep, wide roots and seeds, that it may return time and again no matter what disaster befalls, and when the surface is renewed, so long as seeds and roots survive there will be paradise once again.
And also the simply reference that Roots refer to your history. The roots of your lineage and origins. The art inspired by Zhengui's ancestral roots, fallen pillar reborn as what would be Kohatu, fallen and reborn once again as Zhengui. Each time different forms and nature, but all a paradise and wonder

Taking a blow and standing back up is the epitome of Yin though?
