The sun sets.
The orange-yellow glow shines through the window into the library.
At a desk by the window, a handsome and calm boy is quietly flipping through the classics in his hand. The glow softly shines on his cheeks, making his temperament more refined. The sound of turning pages is slight, but it sounds very frequently. Soon, the boy's book has reached the last page. "I've finished reading." Putting down the book, Yu Chen pinched his eyebrows hard. Time flies, and four months have passed in a blink
of an eye. During this time, Yu Chen has read a full third of the books in the library of Lanba Academy. As early as the beginning of awakening the memory of the previous life, Yu Chen found that his memory was more than one level stronger than that of the previous life. Obviously, this is a hidden benefit for traversers. Most traversers have the characteristics of strong mental power and extraordinary comprehension, and Yu Chen is one of them. Thanks to this, he developed a technique that is almost "quantum speed reading" and absorbs a large amount of knowledge at an astonishing speed. Among them, the classics on meditation and various soul power techniques were given the first priority. He read them early and reviewed them often. The so-called meditation method in Douluo is not the method of improving mental power in the magic world, but internal strength. No, it can't be called internal strength at all, at most it is the prototype of internal strength. As we all know, the research level of soul power cultivation method in Douluo Continent is incredibly low. Tang San, who came from the low-level martial arts world, relied on the internal strength method "Xuantian Gong" stolen from a sect that was never considered to be a first-class sect-Tang Sect, and had a cultivation speed that was the best among his peers. Even after ten thousand years, twenty thousand, or thirty thousand years, there was no soul power cultivation method that could compare with "Xuantian Gong". Putting those classics that recorded meditation and soul power techniques at the first priority, Yu Chen hoped to summarize and develop a new and efficient cultivation method by himself. He didn't expect to create a great method all at once, but he was still very confident in developing a method that could double the current cultivation speed. The biggest source of his confidence is not his superior comprehension, but Tai Chi. In Douluo Continent, people must rely on martial souls to improve their soul power. But Tai Chi can be separated from martial souls and bring him extra soul power growth. But you have to know that the Tai Chi that Yu Chen brought from his previous life only has moves, but no internal skills. Without the existence of internal skills, Yu Chen was very puzzled at the beginning that just doing a set of moves can improve soul power. But after nearly half a year of research, Yu Chen has realized that it is not the moves of Tai Chi that bring about the improvement of soul power, but the power of artistic conception generated when boxing. Yu Chen calls it [Tai Chi artistic conception]. The Tai Chi artistic conception of "using softness to overcome hardness", "hardness and softness", "two yin and yang coexist", and "yin and yang transformation" invisibly conforms to the laws of heaven and earth, bringing him positive feedback on soul power. In other words, moves are not important, artistic conception is important. In his opinion, if you fully control the Tai Chi artistic conception and can send and receive from the heart, then you can do nothing and your soul power will automatically increase. But this is still far from Yuchen. Originally, the artistic conception of Tai Chi only appeared when he was focused and wanted to complete a complete set of Tai Chi. If he added a move, deleted a move, or had distracting thoughts, he would only be doing useless work. In this case, the growth of soul power was extremely passive, and each time it was only slightly improved. In order to make greater use of the power of artistic conception, Yuchen naturally wanted to optimize Tai Chi. But after several months of hard work, he could only ensure that the power of artistic conception would appear when he was boxing, but he still couldn't take the initiative to use it, and he didn't dare to simplify the moves. To put it in a more understandable way, the whole set of Tai Chi is equivalent to a high-scoring answer sheet, and Yuchen is a plagiarist. If he copied it word for word, he could get the same high score (referring to the growth of soul power). But if he was asked to make changes on the answer sheet, unless he had enough knowledge, it would only be superfluous. "Try again!" Yuchen had just finished reading a classic book, and he had some insights in his heart. In the empty library, there was no one around the boy. He got off his chair and took a stance on the open space beside him. [Wild horses part their manes, white cranes spread their wings... leopards and tigers return to the mountains, slanting their tails...] After countless practices in the past six months, almost every move and form of Tai Chi has been integrated into Yu Chen's muscle instinct. Letting his body move on its own, Yu Chen dispersed his mind and felt the energy in the dark. At a certain moment, the Tai Chi artistic conception suddenly appeared, and he immediately cast his mental power towards it, trying to draw the power emitted by the artistic conception into his body. This time, he succeeded! The meditation method that had been modified several times was combined with the power of the artistic conception. In just a moment, the soul power running along the meditation method was stained with a bit of special Tai Chi aura. At this moment, Yu Chen was blessed and changed the meditation method again, controlling the soul power in his body to run in a new route. The time of an incense stick passed in a flash. When the external boxing and the internal meditation method are completely compatible, complement each other, and advance and retreat together, the [Tai Chi Artistic Realm] that enveloped Yu Chen suddenly became twice as mysterious! And if the additional soul power passively increased by relying on the Tai Chi Artistic Realm is 1, and the soul power actively cultivated by relying on the meditation method is 2. Then, when the two are combined, 1+2≠3, but equals 5! "Hu——" Another stick of incense passed, and Yu Chen finally stopped practicing and slowly exhaled a long breath. Feeling the soul power in his body grow a lot, he raised the corners of his mouth with satisfaction. "Fourth level soul power!" At the beginning of awakening the memory of his previous life, he practiced Tai Chi for twenty days, and only increased his soul power by 25 levels. In the next month, with the meditation method taught by Liu Erlong, he increased his soul power by 5 levels. If the soul power increases at a rate of 5 levels a month, he should be at level 3 soul power four months later. However, the soul power cultivation becomes more and more difficult. The difficulty of increasing soul power at level 1 is completely different from that at level 11. So Yu Chen normally may not reach level 3. But he improved the meditation method, and let his martial soul Yinglong eat dragon blood and dragon meat every day, so the growth rate of soul power has never declined. Before today, his soul power had not only passed level 3, but was also only one line away from level 4. Now, this line was easily crossed by him. "Finally, Tai Chi and meditation are combined together, and I can finally give the name I have thought of for a long time to this meditation method that has been improved many times - [Tai Chi Heart Sutra]! Tai Chi plus Tai Chi Heart Sutra is [Tai Chi Boxing Sutra]." While thinking, Yu Chen practiced Tai Chi Heart Sutra alone. Soon, the Tai Chi artistic conception that had just disappeared enveloped him again. But compared with the artistic conception when the boxing method and the mental method are used together, the mysterious degree of the artistic conception at this moment is far inferior, and even inferior to the artistic conception when the boxing method is performed alone.
"That is to say, there is still a lot of room for improvement in boxing and mental skills... There is a long way to go!"
But at this time.
A graceful figure stepped into the library. After looking around, when she found that there was no one in the library, she rushed to Yuchen and said excitedly as she walked:
"Xiaochen, auntie has broken through level 60! I'm in a good mood, I'll take you to Tiandou City for shopping and a big meal!"
Regarding Liu Erlong's soul power level-
please pay attention to the timeline, this is six years before the beginning of the plot. It has been about thirteen years since Liu Erlong first appeared in the original work. At this time, Liu Erlong is about thirty-five years old.
In the original work, Qin Ming became a soul emperor at the age of thirty-four, which is the second fastest in the history of the Spirit Hall. Although this setting was later eaten, and Qin Ming was almost nowhere to be found, Liu Erlong must not be as fast as him.
When Liu Erlong first appeared, he was a soul saint of more than seventy levels. Now that he has become a soul emperor, I think it is in line with the common sense of the Douluo world to increase the soul power of the soul emperor to the soul saint stage for more than ten levels in the next thirteen years. At least the difference won't be too big, and I set it this way because it's necessary for the plot. I hope you can accept it.
Also.
