Garen/Cultivation

## **Cultivation Path**

In the first 2 Worlds, Garen mostly relied on Potential Points to achieve the highest realm of cultivation.

As for the 3rd World, Garen only had to rely on his experience as the strongest being of the two past Worlds to dominate it rather easily. He also began to learn about his path as a transmigrator who inherited the Legacy of the Ancient Endorian Warlocks.

It is in the 4th Mecha World that Garen had the most difficulties adapting because:

* Garen possessed a cursed body, which made him very unlucky to the point of losing his Mech Pilot Cultivation
* Potential Points couldn't be find in the beginning (Garen became very strong once he obtained them)
* His talent as an Energy Machinist was lacking and he couldn't upgrade directly his cultivation technique with Potential Points as his computing ability wasn't enough.
* Even his martial arts were no longer good enough (too ancient compared to those who practiced martial arts with technology).

Finally Garen understood that his greatest advantage, besides his stat window Potential Points, was his ability to learn new techniques.

Garen had simply learned too many secret techniques, be it the peak-level Living Secret Techniques or the regular ones like the Golden Statue Technique or the Black Water True Technique, or even the Nine-Headed Dragon Queen Nadia's Ominous Space Path. These secret techniques were all different, significantly widening Garen's horizons, to the extent that no one in the world could compare to him. If it were not for the different laws of physics in each world, if Garen could use his power from before directly, he would have long since reached a terrifying level of power.

## Return to Secret Techniques World (Ch.550 - 566)

!!!SPOILERS!!!

* After the Battle of Heaven, the Door to Heaven felt threatened, so totem power began to be eliminated. All unnatural power began to die. All Totem users below Form 6 had their power slowly taken away and regress.
* Garen takes 50 years to recover from his injuries. Everyone else has moved on, believing that he died 30 years ago.
* He receives a message from Kid, saying that the 'Door of Heaven' will try everything to expel him (as he is a threat to it). The Will of DOH tells him to leave and Garen sends across his Will with images of the Secret Techniques World, asking to be sent there.
* After arriving at Secret technique world, 60 years has passed while only Andrela being alive. Ying Er died of old age, King of Nightmares died due to Genetic Meltdown. White Cloud Gate and Southern Sky gate died out due to Immortal Palace and Behemoth Gate
* Due to Garen being too overpowered, he finds no purpose in staying in the world so follows Andrela to one of the Ancient Endor Sacred Grounds (this was the original plan when Garen, Andrela and King of Nightmares formed a team)
* Garen comes into contact with the Mother Stream and finds out that upon entering, they would have a chance at rebirth.
* After years of preparation, Andrela and Garen enter the stream - leaving the Secret Techniques World.

## Blood Breed World (Ch.567 - 768)

Due to being targeted by a Death Apostle Blood Breed, Garen decides to follow the witch hierarchy system. Later its discovered that he is actually targeted by a Void Creature instead. It marked him as soon as he entered the Mother Stream. The difference between the two, Death Apostles control the dreams formed by creatures themselves and sneak in, controlling their target’s thoughts. The Void Creatures, however, create illusions, not just dreams, and they can forcefully drag other creatures into the illusions they create, or it might even a product of a mixture of illusion and reality. The Void Creatures’ illusions have an important characteristic, which is that they fear life force.
