The Primordial Tamer

Sect Master Oakheart looked at Ryan once again and asked him something, "Orion, I have said that you need to learn to cultivate using Qi, but do you know how the exact way to cultivate?"

Orion paused, realizing that while he now understood the importance of Qi, he had no idea how to actually cultivate it. He shook his head and answered honestly, "No, Master, I'm afraid I don't know the proper method for cultivating Qi."

"I remembered that in the past, I absorb the Qi that was being delivered by my beasts. My beasts are absorbing the Qi, and I get the Qi from my beasts. That is how my cultivation can become a Beast Master." said Orion.

Sect Master Oakheart's eyes widened in surprise upon hearing Orion's unusual method of cultivation. He had never encountered a student who relied solely on their beasts to cultivate Qi. This revelation explained some of Orion's unique abilities but also highlighted the gaps in his knowledge and training.

As Sect Master Oakheart pondered the implications of Orion's method, he began to realize that Orion's way of cultivating Qi was not entirely unheard of, but rather an extremely rare and unique technique typically reserved for those with exceptional talent and a deep, innate connection with their beasts. This method was often referred to as the "Beast Harmony Cultivation" and was only practiced by a select few throughout history.

"Orion, it seems that you have unknowingly tapped into a very ancient and powerful method of cultivation," the sect master said, his voice filled with awe and admiration. "Beast Harmony Cultivation is an extraordinarily rare technique that allows a Beast Master to draw Qi directly from their beasts. This method requires an incredibly strong bond between the Beast Master and their beasts, as well as an innate talent for communication and synchronization with the beasts' energy."

Orion was a bit surprised after hearing it. His cultivation technique was actually Beast Harmony Cultivation which was a very ancient and powerful method of cultivation. It seemed that his Primordial Mastery talent also gave him this. He also remembered that he never asked how other people cultivated in the past.

"However," Sect Master Oakheart continued, his tone becoming more serious, "despite the power and potential of this cultivation method, it is not without its drawbacks. By relying solely on your beasts to absorb and transfer Qi to you, your cultivation speed might be much faster than the average person, but it can also lead to certain issues."

The sect master paused, making sure that Orion was following his explanation. "You see, Orion, in the process of traditional cultivation, martial artists not only absorb Qi from the world around them but also temper and shape their bodies, gradually refining their physical and spiritual selves. This process allows them to harmoniously integrate the energy they cultivate, ensuring a stable foundation for their growth."

"However, with Beast Harmony Cultivation, the Qi you absorb from your beasts has already been refined and processed by them. While this leads to a rapid increase in cultivation, it also means that your body might not have the necessary time to properly adapt and integrate this energy. This could result in an unstable foundation, which might hinder your progress in the long run."

Sect Master Oakheart looked into Orion's eyes, conveying the gravity of the situation. "Orion, it is crucial that we address this issue and ensure that your cultivation remains balanced and stable. I believe that with your innate talent and the proper guidance, you can overcome these challenges and reach even greater heights as a Beast Master."

With renewed determination, Orion nodded, understanding the importance of adapting his cultivation methods to avoid potential pitfalls. The sect master's guidance had given him valuable insights into his own abilities and the path he needed to take to unlock his full potential.

"That is why I will give you a Body Cultivation Technique for you. Your problem could easily be solved by you cultivating a Body Cultivation Technique." said the Sect Master to Orion.

Orion's eyes lit up with excitement at the prospect of learning a new technique that could help him overcome the drawbacks of his current cultivation method. He eagerly asked, "What is this Body Cultivation Technique, Master? How can it help me?"

Sect Master Oakheart smiled, pleased with Orion's enthusiasm and willingness to learn. "The technique I have in mind for you is called the 'Beast Physique Technique.' It focuses on the refinement and strengthening of the body, allowing you to better integrate the Qi you receive from your beasts and the environment."

"The Beast Physique Technique is a unique and powerful method specifically tailored for Beast Masters like yourself, Orion," Sect Master Oakheart explained. "It works by utilizing the distinct Qi from each of your beasts to transform and enhance your body, granting you greater strength, resilience, and adaptability."

"However," the sect master warned, "the process can be quite painful as your body undergoes continuous adjustments and transformations. The unique Qi from your beasts will trigger rapid growth and change in your physical form. But the rewards are well worth the discomfort, as the Beast Physique Technique allows Beast Masters to cultivate a body capable of harmoniously merging with the diverse energies of their beasts."

"The Beast Physique Technique also complements your Beast Harmony Cultivation method, as it ensures that the Qi you absorb from your beasts is properly integrated and balanced within your body," Sect Master Oakheart continued. "By practicing both techniques, you can maximize your potential as a Beast Master and unlock the full extent of your abilities."

Orion listened attentively, his resolve growing stronger. He understood that the path to greatness would be fraught with challenges and pain, but he was determined to overcome them and reach the pinnacle of the Beast Master Realm. As he began to practice the Beast Physique Technique under Sect Master Oakheart's guidance, he braced himself for the trials ahead.

Orion took a deep breath and nodded, steeling himself for the journey ahead. "Thank you, Master Oakheart, for sharing this invaluable technique with me," he said, his voice filled with gratitude and determination. "I understand that the path will be difficult and painful, but I am prepared to face these challenges head-on. I will do whatever it takes to unlock my full potential as a Beast Master and bring honor to our sect."
