Chapter 670: The Difference Between Technique and Method, Anrui Method

~6 min read 1,149 words

It looked at the glittering sky with puzzlement, then at Jiang Chen, thinking this guy was too hateful.

Under Jiang Chen's gentle yet firm pressure, Antares finally retreated and, with great compassion, told Jiang Chen.

"Once you pull a Skill out of the skill space and merge it into the soul, it becomes a soul Skill."

"But a soul Skill is just the term used in your world; outside it's called a Technique."

"Ordinary Skills, no matter how strong, have limits; Techniques can be enhanced without bound, having no end."

"Because a Technique can contain laws, that's why it's called an Activation Script."

"Besides that, Techniques have endless clever uses; there's almost nothing they can't do, only things you can't imagine,"

"including your Primordial Runes; once you permanently master them, they actually become a Technique, though you're more accustomed to calling them soul Skills."

From Antares's mouth, Jiang Chen finally learned some information about the outside world.

The most basic are Skills, while soul Skills are called weak Techniques and strong Techniques.

Because a Technique can bear the power of laws, it holds infinite possibilities.

Divine-level Strongmen usually pull out two or three Skill Star Cores from their skill space, merge them into the soul, turning Skills into Techniques.

Jiang Chen deeply understood that after moving a Skill Star Core into the soul, not only does the Skill grow stronger, but it also gains some miraculous effects.

There is an insurmountable barrier between Skills and Techniques; the higher the level, the more apparent the barrier.

No matter how strong a Skill is, it cannot surpass a Technique.

So even though Divine-level Strongmen have simple attack methods, their power is enormously great.

A Level 90 Divine-level Strongman can easily crush dozens to hundreds of Level 89 Elite Professionals.

The reason includes the Technique.

"Now that you understand the difference between Skills and Techniques, you should know"

"what kind of existence the Anhun Method I mentioned earlier is."

Antares said in a deep voice.

The Anduan Method is a special Technique, evidently a very powerful existence.

Jiang Chen suddenly realized a problem, "Skills are the predecessor of Techniques,

but our Skills awaken after reaching a certain level, meaning the Skills have always been inside us, and cannot be learned from the outside."

"Just like me, I can't learn other professions' Skills; even the Anduan Method you mentioned, I probably can't learn either,"

Antares suddenly burst into loud laughter, "Those who were so clever, why did they suddenly become stupid? What are the Primordial Runes for?"

Jiang Chen was instantly speechless, slapped his head, "Yeah, how did I forget that?"

The Primordial Runes are foreign objects that have now become ours. Since Primordial Runes can be mastered from the outside, with Antares's ability, there is naturally a way to teach the Anhun Method to oneself.

As for how to rescue, judging by Antares's composed demeanor, there must be a way.

Antares said, "I can teach you the Anhun Method, but how much you ultimately master, and whether it becomes your own Method, depends on your own level."

Jiang Chen, full of confidence, "Teach me whatever you like; the rest I'll handle myself. If I can't master it, that's my own problem, not yours." Antares stared with wide eyes, "You still want to blame me."

"Hmm, it's not impossible," Jiang Chen said, a bit serious.

"Get lost!" Antares roared, a gale surged, blowing Jiang Chen back several steps.

From Antares's dragon eyes, a ray of Light Orb struck Jiang Chen's forehead, instantly forming a light point in his soul.

The light point began to enlarge, as if becoming a Skill Star Core.

"Your soul—what a lively scene!" Antares's voice rang out simultaneously.

Jiang Chen's soul world was exceedingly lively.

Several Skill Star Cores were constantly rotating within the soul.

Besides that, there were two Divine Ranks and two Divine Seats.

The Monarch Scepter and the Creation Scepter were also within the soul.

Jiang Chen's soul body was surrounded by nine‑colored dragon souls, and his hands wielded the Demon‑Slaying Tower and the Ancient Lei Tower,

Beyond calling it lively, Antares didn't know how else to describe it. He said bluntly, "What use are these low‑level Divine Ranks? And the Divine Seats, what junk."

"The God of Life's scepter branch can still be seen, just ordinary goods. This scepter is interesting, seems a bit better than the Creation Scepter, but unfortunately it's damaged."

"This looks like your Shenlong Empire's Demon‑Slaying Tower."

"Hey, why does the Demon‑Slaying Tower still have Kunlun's aura inside?"

While teaching Jiang Chen the Soul‑Splitting Method, Antares surveyed Jiang Chen's soul world completely.

Jiang Chen had nothing to hide: "Kunlun the Great gave me a Kunlun Snow Grass King; I planted it using the Demon‑Slaying Tower, and the Ancient Lei Tower supplied the elements."

Antares hummed, "Good idea, but what's the use of planting that thing?"

Jiang Chen knew Antares, with his perspective, would naturally disdain those things.

However, for the Human Race these things are indeed good. Antares suddenly turned serious: "I advise you, never use such things, lest you ruin your own future."

"What do you mean?" Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows and asked hurriedly.

Antares's tone grew heavy, "Using external objects to boost yourself will affect your foundation. If your goal is merely to become a transcendent, that's fine. If you wish to explore higher realms, you must rely on yourself."

"Can't I borrow any external object at all?" Jiang Chen asked softly. Antares shook his head, "It's not that simple; it depends on the function and level of the external object. For example, your nine‑colored flower core crystal counts as an external object, but it only brings benefits, no drawbacks."

"Things like the Kunlun Snow Grass King that forcibly raise level are considered illicit boosts and cannot be used,"

Jiang Chen's heart raced a few rapid beats; fortunately he hadn't used it.

Back then at the Kunlun Divine Palace, he almost used it.

Luckily, luckily, the cultivation path is full of pits.

If you slip once, you might fall into a small pit and climb out, but a big pit means you can never get back up.

At this moment in the soul, the Light Orb Antares sent in had already solidified.

The Light Sphere looked remarkably similar to a Skill Star Core, its surface flickering with numerous mysterious runes; compared to a real Skill, the core was more illusory, hardly a tangible entity.

Antares said, "This is the An Duan Method; you can use it to comprehend and employ the An Duan Method. When you have fully mastered it, Void Food turns into a Skill Star Core, becoming something of your own."

"Also, how did you sense the law that day? You can try to reenact it and see whether you can still feel the law."

"With An Duan Method Compatibility, the law can exert some effect."
