Wants

Jiao's been trying. Only God knows he's been trying. Ever since he figured out he had a flame similar to Sanji's, he's been trying to unlock the other forms of power that exists in his memory bank. Haki from One Piece. Reiatsu from Bleach or better known in novel terms spiritual energy or spirit ki. Alchemy from Full Metal Alchemist is for a later time, when he understands the Laws of the Universe better. Etc.

Magic and Ki are separate things, practically the same in application from what he's seen from novels and the like. Ki is for the physical body and magic is for the forced change of nature. He got Body down to a T. He has yet to get to the level of those that appeared in CP9, Z, Garp, and the like. He's still a whelp compared to those monsters.

Point is, Jiao couldn't get the other powers. Maybe there is a requirement that needs to be filled first? The way to get haki is easy sounding enough, he could get haki from experience. It's just Willpower superimposed. The others though....those need a teacher.

Ever since his encounter with that group that poisoned him. He's been working even harder than before. To him "Limits Are Those Created By the Mind". Never think of "what ifs" or "can i do it?". He has decided, from the day he saw that flying Cultivator in the sky, he would bleed, sweat, and cry to attain power. Right now he's trying to figure out "The Six Powers" and its secret technique"The Rokuougan".

With the help of ki he could perform most of the techniques. Soru, Geppo, Shigan,Rankyaku, and Tekkai could be performed with ki pretty easily. That is not how these techniques should be used. They are used through the Body, techniques using ki are just moves with extra oomph. That is what he's aiming for. Strong Body Technique + Ki = A Stronger Variation.

As soon as he gets these technique down, he could potentially be one of the best Martial Arts Cultivators to ever exist on this plane of existence. Thinking about it has him hyped to a large degree. Larger than when Resident Evil 8 came out. Those were good times.

He's been doing it all to get his Body up to stuff. Getting hit by large heavy objects to train Tekkai. Setting up a training regime utilizing his connections to the soldiers of Little Town to try and hit him for Kami-e. I once thought soldiers in such a martial arts world were weaklings but, Xiang and his soldiers showed him otherwise. The training was especially effective on that technique. Then Shigan, he learned Shigan was just a use of Tekkai but, only in the finger. If that's the case couldn't he be able to move if he found a way to use Tekkai while moving. Like a moving tank he'd be overpowered if he added ki on top of it. Man, he'd be like Lu Bu in the game Dynasty Warriors, damn near unstoppable.

Rankyaku is wind pressure caused by the kick, which is admittedly hard to pull off. He could only cause a slight cut to a tree. To train this technique he had to have custom made weights, a set of four, from the blacksmith then utilizing his near shit knowledge of magic, he created a shoddy gravity rune that could cause up to 100-10,000 pounds of weight. He kicked and punched with these weights on 1000 pounds each. He also did squats, ran miles, and jumped from tree to tree. He fell a lot but, with each repition those falls are happening at less frequency. He thinks it will happen again once he increases the weight.

A.T: Aw yeah Samurai Jack Training.

Soru and Geppo will also benefit from such training. Though, figuring out how to fit more than 10 steps into the technique is the real hard part. A 100 steps would probably go super sonic. 1000...jesus that would be fast. Rokuougan that's the real doozy. He'll get back to that when he masters the six.

Besides that there are other techniques that he wants. Those will have to wait, before he knew it 3 years have passed.
