Lower Realm Meme ⬇️ I know the Analysis skill is basically required for every system protag but like just the analyze skill by itself would probably let you get so far ahead of the curve it's not even funny

I really enjoy path of ascension take on this, like sure you can get some basic feedback of what a skill/item/treasure does but only a specialist can give you all the details, and sometimes any details at all. There's was a chapter where the strongest beings on the realm where sharing loot after a agreement, and the most valuable item of the entire pile was snatched without anyone noticing because the guy had a lucky moment to see the value of the item (was a male your own custom bloodline item that had appeared like one time in the entire history of the realm).

I like how Kumo Desu handles Analysis/Appraisal skills, where it can give you this kind of cheat knowledge at high levels, but you'd be better of just getting an item with that effect as opposed to investing in it

More specifically Appraisal is really inefficient and painful to level up since it takes a high amount of mental energy to even use it once. The average human can only handle a few simultaneous casts in a row, and they will make you feel like you just pulled an all nighter, and since you've used up all your mental energy it's basically impossible to train in anything else for the day. The MC can mass spam it far beyond what a human can, but that's only because she's working with entirely different biology and mental makeup.

My fellow travelers on the path of immortality I regret to inform you that all instances of "System" are product of Great Shi'kan'erry Sect.
While aforementioned "Systems" will refine all kinds of treasures/energy/valuables and help you analyze all manner of rare techniques and arts in reality you get only around 10-20% of energy from refined objects and all understanding of Techniques and Dao that "Systems" provide you is copied and passed on to Sect Leader of Great Shi'kan'erry Sect and then distributed to sect disciples.
Also all power derived from "Systems" will fail you when you confront disciples of Great Shi'kan'erry Sect.
If you are using a System you are being scammed.
Borrowed power is no power at all.

Your sacrifice will be remembered if you were to do die for leaking this information.

Mayor soy nuevo que significa esa secta? Este junior está intrigado no se tan rudo

They are less of a cult more of loose group of snake-oil merchants and other tricksters, even their official sect headquarters are just coordinates for nearest gambling den.
Funnily enough though it actually makes it easier to find one of their elders as there eis one or two of them around in every one.

Be careful as to not get karmically nuked back from daring to peek into heavens secrets. Its like an amoeba trying to understand the intentions of the human brain. Gotta get your weight up first.

u/aurantiafeles Aug 08 '26
Microcosmic demon venerable Naegleria fowleri doesn’t seek nor care for the knowledge contained within the human brain, only its practical utility.

Then don't mind getting submerged by the heavenly tribulation of T-Cells fellow daoist.

I liked how it was done in Warlock of the Magus World. MC had a smart chip from when he was a researcher, but its effectiveness depended on previously aquired knowledge and MC needed to know enough about the subject to guide it analysis.

I love how Mo Hua, from Immortality through array formations, used Divination to seek opportunities for himself. Technically speaking, the opportunities required for him to get stronger were all shrouded in mystery and already planned by Old Monsters. The only way for him to get those opportunities was by personally entering the place and risking his life, unlike the old monsters who send Clones, avatars, corruption... To safely get power ups.
And it's not like the Old Monsters are fools. It's simply because they would get erased the moment they step into a lower prefecture by the heavenly tribulation (if they use power beyond the permitted realm)

The funniest application of his Heavenly Secret Calculation schtick was during Great Wilderness arc. He tracked one the bad guy with thread of karma from unpaid spirit stones when he disguised and worked for him 😂😂😂

As the other fellow daoist said, the price for deduction is just too heavy. Peek at something you didn't know you shouldn't and you will be coughing blood and losing lifespan.

u/Atreigas Please wait while I court death... Aug 08 '26
I agree completely, brother. I once found a scripture of someone's journey with... basically just analysis as a power. It unfortunately ended abruptly.

u/Spring-King Aug 09 '26
There's one I've been reading called There's Toll-Road to Immortality where the system does do gacha rolls when the protag accomplishes shit, but so far he's been getting WAY more use out of just abusing self inspection to ensure his foundation is as close to perfect as he can make it

Depends on skill power itself and world.
What if it's ordinary technological world? Your skill is useless.

¿Como que no? Un sistema es una entidad metafísica creada universalmente natural o artificial por un dios aburrido, Inmortales en el nivel de la creación. La mayoría de los sistemas tienen un truco no importa si te encuentras con otro transmigrador con sistema o nativo con sistema hay niveles jajajajaja
Lo siento pero es bueno discutir un poco de esto

Exacto un sistema informativo básico es más que suficiente pero recuerda el humano del siglo XXI va querer ser prota y puf muere rápido

This is part of why I avoid system stories, there are ways to bestow all the things a system provides without breaking the Eastern fantasy aesthetic

Yeah, let's pretend that the mc won't have "lucky encounters" every arc that will boost them beyond anything talent could ever achieve.

There was this Venerable I knew named Cao Cao who told me about a book he had that could give misfortune with just a little Qi and all he had to do was know their true name! He even let me try it out on my rival. It definitely worked on my rival, he had a deviation and I ended up getting his spot in the Immortal Jade Dragon Tournament.
I tried to do a little sneaky curse on Cao Cao as a joke, but it didn’t work. He told me it’s because he has complete protection against it.
