Cultivation Techniques

## Types of Cultivation Techniques

Cultivation Techniques are categories initially by their Race of origin: Celestial, Demon, Human, Monster, Dragon.

[Soul]: A true **soul nourishing technique** imagines and visualizes the sacred saints. It strengthens the soul and it can soar above the high clouds and travel deep beneath the ground. Wind can’t disperse it, light and heat can’t melt it, lightning can’t strike it down, water can’t absorb it, fire can’t burn it, and earth can’t petrify it. This is the true and authentic way to cultivate a soul.
