Chapter 35: Top-level Martial Spirits with Secret Skills Speaking of Tang Hao, Zhou Qing asked Tang San: "Grandpa Jack directly gave you the village quota without discussing it with your father. Why don't you go back and tell him?" “It’s a question worth thinking about.” Tang San's tone sank. Ever since a forging workshop was built near Zhou Qing's home, Tang San's time spent at home has plummeted. His every day is packed with activities, and his relationship with Tang Hao has become increasingly distant. To this day, Tang San prepares Tang Hao's three meals a day. He could already imagine that if he left the Holy Soul Village and went to the Junior Soul Master Academy in Notting City for further studies, Tang Hao might stop him - because no one would bring him food! Tang San believed that this was definitely something Tang Hao could do! But Tang San didn't want to mention it at this time. Instead, he took Zhou Qing to the forge, closed the door, and pulled the curtains, looking mysterious. "What are you going to do?" Zhou Qing looked terrified, hugged his shoulders, and closed his legs tightly, "I'm a boy! You're only six years old! Why are you so horny?"
Tang San's face was full of black lines, his eyes twitched, and he cursed: "Aren't you also six years old? Why are your thoughts so dirty?" "Can you blame me? The guys in the village who are six or seven years older than us, the men have already married, and the women have already married. At the very least, they are at the age of marriage." Zhou Qing spoke the truth, but he stopped being funny and asked about the real business, "What do you want to do? Let me make it clear in advance, I can't use your mouth or your mouth. I can use my hands, but I might crush you on purpose." Listening to Zhou Qing's description, Tang San's veins were exposed: "I'm not kidding! Also, aren't you a little too vulgar?" "Well, I'm just livening up the atmosphere. Don't mind me. You're so solemn, there must be a big discovery. I have to relieve the tension in my heart." Zhou Qing straightened his back, raised his hands high, and said confidently, "I'm ready now." Tang San took a deep breath, calmed the emotions surging in his heart, and raised his left hand. A black light flashed, and a small black hammer emerged. Tang San held it in his hand, but it seemed that because of its heavy weight, his arm had to be lowered. "You have two martial spirits, and the other one is a hammer." Zhou Qing had a blank expression on his face, but he was extremely relieved in his heart. At least at this moment, Tang San had completely let go of him. "Aren't you surprised that I have two martial spirits?" Tang San put away the Clear Sky Hammer and wiped the sweat from his forehead. The release of the Clear Sky Hammer consumed a lot of his spirit power. It can only be said that it is worthy of being a top-level weapon spirit. "What's so surprising?" Zhou Qing asked curiously, "Except for my special body martial soul and some special cases, other people's martial souls are inherited from their parents. You just inherited the martial souls of both your father and mother at the same time." "Original martial spirit?" This was the first time Tang San heard this term. "I chose this. After all, my martial soul is the heart. Hmm, it doesn't seem very accurate. My martial soul should be the blood circulation system that includes the heart. It is more appropriate to define it with this word." This is also Zhou Qing's current judgment. His martial soul is not as simple as a pure heart, but a complete blood circulation system. When the martial soul awakens and completes the possession, the martial soul and the body's original blood circulation system perfectly overlap and merge together. That moment! He could clearly feel the beating of his heart, the dilation and contraction of his blood vessels, and the flow of his blood. He could even indirectly sense the rhythm of cells throughout his body! Although the perception at this level is very vague, even like an illusion, Zhou Qing is sure that with the integrity of this blood circulation system, his martial soul is already a rare top-level martial soul in the world even if it does not undergo the so-called second awakening or third awakening. With the various meridian and acupoint maps about Xuan Tian Gong practice given by Tang San, as well as his scientific ideas from his previous life, wouldn't it be easy for him to create his own soul skills in the future? "Let's not talk about this for now. Are my two martial spirits really just inherited from my parents' martial spirits at the same time as simple as that?" Tang San interrupted Zhou Qing's fantasy and asked about his own situation. "if not?"
Zhou Qing asked back, "Could it be that you have another martial spirit that appeared out of thin air?" "It's possible. After all, you said that your parents' martial spirits were both blue silver grass, but your martial spirit is the heart... the blood circulation system." Tang San said, aren't you, Zhou Qing, an example? "Can this be the same?" Zhou Qing was speechless. "I have a feeling that the body spirit is the spirit that humans should have. Other weapon spirits, beast spirits, etc. are all impure things." Tang San's forehead was filled with black lines, this escalated to an attack on the physical body of another's martial spirit... an attack on his soul body! "Just kidding, let's get down to business." Zhou Qing said seriously, "Twin martial spirits, from the perspective of parental inheritance, are indeed as simple as inheriting the common martial spirit from both the father and the mother. But in fact, it is still quite difficult to possess two martial spirits at the same time." "Disaster?" After the soul guide crystal appeared, Tang San spent most of his time replicating the soul guide core array on it. As for Zhou Qing's new book on martial souls, he hardly opened it. After all, human energy is limited and it is impossible to take care of everything. Just like in the area of soul guides, Zhou Qing had completely handed it over to Tang San for research. He was only responsible for recording the basics and occasionally providing some modern people's ideas. "Martial souls have different qualities, just like the amount of innate soul power in a martial soul. I suspect that the level of innate soul power represents the quality of the martial soul." Zhou Qing said calmly, "High-quality martial spirits have a fast training speed, low-quality martial spirits have a slow training speed..." According to the elementary meditation technique of the Spirit Hall and the Xuan Tian Gong practice method you provided, the martial soul is equivalent to a martial arts secret book that comes naturally. The so-called meditation method is the process of shortening the distance between oneself and the martial soul itself and learning the secret book from the martial soul. In the process of obtaining spirit rings, the martial soul itself will also grow and may even mutate, so there is a probability that the details of this martial arts secret book will change. That is to say, according to my theory, as long as it is a martial soul that can be cultivated, even if the innate soul power is at level one, as long as there is enough time, that is, the human lifespan is about a thousand or ten thousand years, and the future soul ring is extremely harmonious with the martial soul itself without conflict, it can also reach the realm of Titled Douluo. The reason they cannot reach it may be that in the process of growing up, the martial soul has obtained a soul ring that does not match the martial soul itself, just like a plant martial soul chooses the soul ring of an animal soul beast. In the short term, we may not see any effect, but from a long-term perspective, if the martial soul itself is not born with full soul power, or if it is like us who have the Xuantian Gong training method, I am afraid that the changes that occur during the growth of the martial soul will cause the human soul power to gradually move in a different direction. " "But this theory still has a lot of loopholes, and I haven't found any cases so far. It may be overturned in the future." But from this perspective, Tang San's main practice of Xuantian Gong in the original work can be said to be the right path. Otherwise, if he chooses the spirit ring according to Yu Xiaogang's instruction, Tang San will probably be finished. Tang San nodded frequently, and was also amazed at the fact that the human's martial arts and martial spirits in this world were one, but then he thought of something and asked doubtfully: "Are you off topic? What does this have to do with me having twin martial spirits?" "There are relationships." Zhou Qing said, "According to my theory, soul masters generally only have one martial soul. The reason is that different martial souls bring different cultivation methods to soul masters. Although there is overlap, that is, the initial basic soul power circulation method is based on the Ren and Du meridians for circulation, but the differences in details of different techniques can cause big problems." Tang San understood, this is equivalent to practicing two internal martial arts secrets at the same time, if the balance between them is not achieved, it is easy to explode and die. Then, Zhou Qing continued, "From my perspective, the human body's instinct is to evolve and become stronger, so a strong martial soul will overwhelm a weak martial soul. This is equivalent to a martial soul with a complex soul power circulation route covering a martial soul with a simple soul power circulation route, presenting [dominance] and thus manifesting." "Then under what circumstances can two martial spirits manifest at the same time?" Without waiting for Tang San to answer, Zhou Qing gave the answer: "There is only one, that is, the potential soul power circulation routes transmitted to the soul master by these two martial souls are indistinguishable." "Originally, I thought your innate soul power was cultivated from the Xuantian Gong. After all, when I placed my hand on the crystal ball before, I felt that the Xuantian Gong soul power I cultivated was sucked away together with the soul power in my martial soul. I also noticed that a part of the innate soul power in my martial soul was still retained, but the crystal ball could no longer absorb more soul power. And your two martial souls are relatively common martial souls, so the full innate soul power is cultivated by you yourself, not brought by the martial souls, so they are all innate useless martial souls..."
Tang San was very upset, but when he placed his hand on the crystal ball, it was true that only the internal energy cultivated from the Xuan Tian Gong was sucked away, and the two martial spirits in his body did not move at all. [Am I a useless twin martial spirit? ] He continued to listen. "... But judging from the appearance of your hammer, it is very heavy, and your soul power cannot support the consumption of it to manifest and maintain its size, which proves that this martial soul must be extremely powerful." "Similarly, your Blue Silver Grass should not be an ordinary Blue Silver Grass. Even if it looks like it, it should have the potential to grow into something comparable to the hammer in your left hand. Or maybe it already has that potential and is just pretending?" "This is the only possibility that would lead to your having twin martial spirits." Tang San thought quietly for a while, then asked: "Is there any proof?" "It's very simple." Zhou Qing went home, that is, walked to the next door, and handed Tang San the elementary meditation technique published by the Spirit Hall, "Close your eyes and meditate, carefully sense the spirit, don't practice the Mysterious Heaven Technique yet, and feel the soul power running in the two spirits." Tang San did as he was told. Xuantian Gong is peaceful and calm, and it is just a perception. As long as you don’t practice it yourself, there will be no big problems. "Which one should I sense first?" "hammer." After getting Zhou Qing's reply, Tang San sat down cross-legged and followed the instructions for the elementary meditation technique. He closed his eyes, calmed his mind, and communicated with the hammer spirit in his left hand. In an instant, Tang San's spirit, which was far superior to that of ordinary people due to the cultivation of the Purple Demon Pupil, received a response from the Clear Sky Hammer. The soul power took the initiative to circulate in his body in a way different from the Mysterious Sky Skill. The images of the veins and acupoints through which the soul power flowed appeared clearly in his mind. This technique is not inferior to Xuantian Gong! Tang San was horrified! Although perhaps due to insufficient mental strength, he was unable to fully see inside, so that his perception was a little hazy, but Tang San, who was familiar with various meridians and acupoints, was able to completely analyze the essence of this martial arts diagram. He also figured out one thing, that is, other soul masters in this world only started to come into contact with mental power after becoming Soul Saints and Soul Douluo, so they could not accurately perceive the complete cultivation route given to humans by martial souls in the early stages of cultivation. They need to slowly accept all of it as their cultivation level increases and their mental power passively increases. As for meditation methods, even though Tang San had only seen the elementary level so far, he had made some bold guesses about the intermediate and advanced levels. That is the route map of intermediate and advanced soul power circulation, which is much more dense and detailed than the primary one, and cannot be directly used for soul masters to practice. It only helps soul masters to further determine the specific meridians required for the circulation of martial souls in the human body during meditation practice. As for those martial souls that do not have innate full soul power, during the process of cultivation, the martial soul will break through the stage of growth due to the blessing of the soul ring, which will cause different changes in the details of the cultivation pattern given to the soul master in each major stage, and then make it difficult for soul masters below the Soul Douluo level who cannot perceive the effect of mental power to determine, so it will eventually lead to difficulties in the cultivation path of martial souls with low innate soul power. In this process, according to Zhou Qing's theory, spirit rings may be the basis for spirit masters with low innate spirit power to change their fate. However, since the knowledge of spirit master cultivation is not completely open, once a spirit master with low innate spirit power chooses the wrong spirit ring, his future path of cultivation may be as difficult as "The Road to Shu". "How about it?" Seeing Tang San open his eyes, Zhou Qing asked. "I sensed the cultivation method that the hammer brought me, which is not inferior to the Xuantian Gong, and it should be very compatible with the hammer." Tang San understood that the martial soul needed soul power to drive it. The internal force cultivated by the Xuantian Gong was moderate and peaceful. If the hammer martial soul was used, it would be difficult to exert its power perfectly. And Tang San never imagined that the Xuan Tian Gong that he had been dreaming about in his previous life would end up with his death. In this life, he actually has two, no, including the Blue Silver Grass that he has not yet sensed, there are probably three peerless skills for him to choose from. [Is this God compensating me? ] [In my previous life, I had nothing and was all alone. In this life, my martial soul awakened and I gained a peerless skill, as well as a good brother who grew up with me! ] "Is that so?"
Zhou Qing thought, Tang San in the original novel, was a disciple of Yu Xiaogang, majoring in Xuantian Gong. He probably didn't even look at various meditation methods, and it was very likely that he didn't even discover the Clear Sky Hammer and Blue Silver Emperor's own skills. It was also mentioned in the original novel that the martial soul is alive and needs to be communicated with, but based on Tang San's situation in the original novel, it is estimated that he treated the martial soul as a tool. Real communication? Totally impossible. Perhaps it was precisely for this reason that the two martial souls, Blue Silver Grass and Clear Sky Hammer, did not recognize Tang San from the beginning of their awakening, so that neither the Blue Silver Grass nor the Clear Sky Hammer provided him with any innate soul power. It was not until Tang San took the initiative to use the internal force cultivated from the Mysterious Heavenly Art to activate the two martial souls that a real physical connection was established. "Have you checked the blue silver grass?" "Let me try." Tang San closed his eyes again. Suddenly, his other martial soul, the Blue Silver Grass, emerged in his spiritual world. Based on the perception it conveyed, he actively constructed a meridian operation map in his mind, but compared with the previous hammer, it was more vague. Although in Tang San's perception, it is not weaker than the hammer, but it is blurry and he can only barely judge the general circulation of soul power, and the details cannot be seen clearly at all. no doubt! His Blue Silver Grass must be of the same quality as the hammer, but why is it so hazy? After opening his eyes, Tang San told Zhou Qing about his discovery. Zhou Qing understood: "From this, it can be seen that your Blue Silver Grass Martial Spirit is definitely not ordinary. Its quality is the same as your hammer. The reason why it is hazy is probably because your Blue Silver Grass has not grown up yet and is still in the development stage, or because your mental strength is insufficient." "Growing period?" Tang San was puzzled. "Compared to weapon spirits, which have a clear function at first glance, the books about beast spirits at home describe that beast spirits will undergo more obvious changes during their growth stages due to different spirit rings, which means that more parts will be transformed into beasts..." "Isn't Blue Silver Grass a weapon spirit?" Before Zhou Qing finished speaking, Tang San began to feel doubtful. “Plants are living things, too, aren’t they?” "Yes." "Among soul beasts, there are animals and plants, right?" "Yes." Tang San nodded, and understood all of a sudden, "So, plant martial spirits cannot be classified as weapon martial spirits!" "Of course. It's impossible that just because a plant spirit can't possess a body like a beast spirit, but is held in the hand, it can be regarded as a weapon spirit, right?" Zhou Qing had a lot of complaints in his heart about the fact that Douluo Continent classified plant martial spirits as weapon martial spirits. Even if the martial soul itself cannot be completely linked to real objects and soul beasts, there is still a connection. So is it really a good idea to simply and crudely classify the plant martial soul that cannot be possessed into the weapon martial soul? How many civilian spirit masters with plant spirits have been deceived by this? “It’s really not possible to judge like that.” Tang San agreed with this deeply, and made up his mind that from now on, apart from Zhou Qing's advice, he should not trust all the knowledge of other people, even Titled Douluo on martial spirits and spirit beasts, otherwise he might be cheated, and he would have to thank them afterwards, because they did not know that their own concepts were inappropriate. "Regarding the cultivation of twin martial spirits, I have an idea. Would you like to hear it?" Now that Tang San has become his own person, he can no longer hide anything from himself. Besides, he also has innate full soul power and will need Tang San's strength in the future.
God Realm... As a time traveler, you must be prepared for a rainy day! "Appreciate further details." Tang San knew that after obtaining the Xuan Tian Gong, Zhou Qing did not just practice it, but asked him about the locations, functions, and connections of all the meridians and acupoints in the human body. In addition, the other party's ideas could occasionally make him enlightened, so maybe he could really come up with constructive suggestions. If possible, Tang San, as a perfectionist, does not want to give up these three skills... (End of this chapter)
