Cultivating the Great Development Technique refines a cultivators soul significantly strengthening Spiritual Sense. Additionally the technique grants cultivators the ability to split their primal souls.
Cultivating the Great Development Technique is difficult. It requires the cultivator to have Spiritual Energy to sustain the concentration required to refine ones soul.
