In a Cultivation World with a Cheat System (Xianxia inspired quest).

Where abouts are those? Don't remember seeing them.

Going to bed now so I might not reply soon.
Here:
Also, here's one I made for fun:
[][Cultivation] The Pure Road of Karma Cleansing: This technique revolves around instead of mixing Heaven and Earth Qi with Soul Energy, they mix it with their Karmic Energy, creating Karmic Qi. This particular technique differs from the slightly more common Defiled Path of Karma Corruption or the Neutral Path of Karma Attainment in that it only utilizes the cultivator's positive Karma. This can be difficult for many cultivators as their need to maintain Face often causes them to commit atrocities and accrue negative Karma. However, for those pure enough to take this path, their techniques and suppression become significantly more effective against those with larger amounts of negative Karma, to the point where a truly despicable being a full stage higher than them might still be significantly hampered, were one to be pure of heart and using a higher level cultivation style than this basic one.
Heavenly Pot Forging: a technique invented by the Golden Stomach sect that only accepts people with the Nullifying Cauldron Stomach trait, this cultivation path focuses on honing the body through pills and enhancing the already potent abilities of the Nullifying Cauldron Stomach and is most remarked by its Heavenly Pill Regurgitation technique, wherin its cultivators learn to regurgitate the pills their stomachs create from raw materials, each of higher level than one made in a lesser pot.
 
I'm going to propose a new technique

[ ] [Technique] Yin-Yang Universal Shift: Palm. Offense. A catastrophic blow that targets one part of the anatomy of all races, a spot below the dantian that is root of yin and yang. With one hit, the physiological yin and yang of the victim is inverted in a painful explosion that undoes what the Heaven's have decreed. Even if the target survived, they will wish they didn't.

You're joking now, but it was an actual technique used to devastating effects in the Strongest System. Sometimes I wish brain bleach was an actual thing.
 
[ ] [Technique] Fist of the Angry Kitten: Punch. Offense. A blow that lands like the batting of a small, fluffy kitten... yet afterward produces spiritual gashes and cuts where it lands, draining some of their accumulated Qi onto the landscape.

Oh...OH..OHHH...it cames back to me.I wish it didn't...Reversing Heaven and Earth or something like that...

NOPE! Brain Bleach time.
 
[ ][Technique] Sacrificial Blast
Offensive
This last ditch technique involves sacrificing part of your cultivation base as a massive explosion. As the Qi of your cultivation base is much thicker than normally stored Qi and much more attuned to your essence, the explosion would be cause damage at least tenfold of that caused by normal Qi and would not damage the user. However, few are willing to accept such a setback in their cultivation.
 
[ ] [Technique] Heavenly Guardian Defense: Any weapon. Defense. Unleashes the full potential of any object in a single moment of glory. A branch in your hand can block out a bolt of thunder tribulation. Mundane objects cannot be used more than once, disintegrating after intercepting a single hit. A treasure sword might be used twice and for better defensive power. It is rumored that an offensive version of this technique exist.

At some point, we might want to make a separate thread for the shop and suggestions for stuff to put in it.
 
Or perhaps a discord channel.

I'm tempted to see if I can make Enlightenment of Thunder and Lightning from Veritas for this system although I'm not sure if it should be a cultivation art or a tech.

Isn't Strongest System that one xianxia where like, the second cultivation art the MC learns is "rip out their testicles with your hands"?

Monkey Steals the Peach or something like that, yeah. Read it a few weeks ago, tried to blank it out after. I have so many problems with Xianxia stories. Why can't they be like Forge of Destiny dammit?!

Because Forge of Destiny has the xianxia paint job but lacks its essence.

That or you need to learn to laugh to crude Chinese humor.
 
...What essence is there besides edgy-tryhardness? Seriously, I wanna know.
Depends on what you read, some are about infinite power ups (MGA), some are about understanding the Tao and being enlightened. Things like ISSTH have some pretty big emphasis on philosophy of characters. But forge of destiny is pretty far from a normal Xianxia, so you might just not like the genre.
 
@Kolarthecool, what ranks are my Pure Road of Karma Cleansing and Heavenly Pot Forging manuals?

Respectively, Earth and Mortal Rank. The first is just mixing energies differently but gets bumped up a rank for assumed difficulty in energy manipulation and sensing. The second can just be a different form of body refinement based around an innate trait.

Shop
Ok done. Please put any new entries into the Unranked sheet so @Kolarthecool can rank them and only then move them to the appropriate sheet, inserting a new row into whichever rank the new entry fits into.

That's quite helpful thanks. I'll give it a better looksie when I'm home and off my phone in 8h.
 
Hey QM, do pills made with Nullifying Cauldron Stomach benefit from Dao Soul (Pills)? Because that sounds like a great way to turbo grind
 
I'm really enjoying inventing things. I want to invent at least one thing for each tab in the shop. All I have left is armor and a trait.
 
So what do you think?

It's really helpful. I've never used googledocs excel but maybe I should start. Way easier than posting everything on here and then having to trawl through spoilers and text. I'll give it more thought once the next chapter is done with.

Yup, the two would work well together.

Armor shouldn't be overly complicated. Xianxia doesn't really focus on enchanted armor and such in my experience. Everyone just wears increasingly elaborate and expensive robes. Which tend to look badass all things considered.
