The next moment, Luo Fan felt a wave of clarity in his mind.
Then, a memory appeared in his mind.
It was the Basic Primordial Energy Cultivation Method.
On Earth, there is only one basic primordial energy cultivation method, called the "Five Hearts Toward Heaven Method."
The system reward, however, is called "Absorbing Qi with the Spirit".
This method is very simple: it uses spiritual willpower to draw genetic primordial energy into the body.
Spiritual willpower is not something only spiritual adepts possess—all living beings have it.
It's just that spiritual adepts have much stronger spiritual willpower.
"Absorbing Qi with the Spirit" also teaches how to utilize one's own spiritual willpower.
Luo Fan tried following the method.
Sure enough, he soon felt the presence of spiritual willpower.
He secretly tried lifting something.
As expected, his spiritual willpower was too weak to even lift the training sword beside him.
This indicated that he did not have the talent of a spiritual adept.
He could only barely lift some energy bars.
However, the strength of spiritual willpower does not affect the cultivation of genetic primordial energy.
After all, although this cultivation method is different from the "Five Hearts Toward Heaven Method,"
the only difference is that the Absorbing Qi with the Spirit method absorbs genetic primordial energy faster and is easier to use.
At the same time, Absorbing Qi with the Spirit can also be used to cultivate spiritual willpower.
Don't think this is almost the same as the Five Hearts Toward Heaven Method.
In reality, once you reach the planetary level, there is a difference.
For example, Hong and Lei Shen, using only their own absorption of genetic primordial energy, have only reached Planetary Level 6 and Planetary Level 7 so far.
If they had used Absorbing Qi with the Spirit, they would have already reached the Stellar Level.
After all, Planetary Levels 1 to 9 are just a process of energy accumulation.
Luo Fan didn't start cultivation immediately, because Luo Feng was right beside him.
Even if he wanted to teach this cultivation method to Luo Feng and Fang Xueyi, he would need to wait until after a trip to the Wild Zone.
He stood up, preparing to do a training task.
However, at that moment, he found that the system prompted that the task level was insufficient.
Sure enough, the training required for a normal person to increase physical strength is different from that required for an Apprentice Level 1 to increase physical strength.
He tried for a while and finally managed to establish the task.
[Task: Perform 10,000 push-ups, squats, and sit-ups with 200 kg of added weight, and run 100 km; Reward: +5 Physical Strength]
[Task: Breakthrough to Apprentice Level 2; Reward: +5 Spirit, 100 kg of Purple Light Dew]
Luo Fan's eyes lit up when he saw the rewards.
Purple Light Dew is a common beverage in the universe.
Just 10 grams, or 15 milliliters, can turn a Senior Student into a Martial Artist.
That is, it increases strength by roughly 100–200 kg.
However, this only works effectively the first few times it's consumed.
Otherwise, if someone kept drinking Purple Light Dew, wouldn't they reach the peak of the Apprentice Level directly?
Afterward, drinking it can also be used to restore physical strength.
Moreover, this can be used by his parents and Luo Hua.
At the same time, it can be used during his own training.
Now, completing a training task consumes a large amount of physical strength.
By then, it can be used for recovery.
Luo Fan stood up and went to get the weights, preparing to complete the training task.
The training room had specialized weighted clothing, allowing metal plates to be added according to one's needs.
Because of the heavy weight 200 kg, even for Luo Fan now, completing it would be extremely difficult.
It wasn't until noon that he had completed half of the task.
After finishing lunch, he continued training for another three hours before completing the task.
"Claim reward."
Seeing that his Physical Strength had reached 113, Luo Fan nodded in satisfaction.
Although now a single training task could take five to six hours to complete,
after becoming a Martial Artist, increasing Physical Strength mainly relies on absorbing Gene Energy to strengthen the body.
So being able to achieve this effect purely through training at this stage was already very good.
After completing the cultivation task, Luo Fan returned home to Mingyue Residential Area.
After a week of rest, Fang Xueyi was planning to go alone to the Wild Zone near the supply base tomorrow to practice her spear techniques.
She had often done this before.
It was also because she trained so diligently.
As a result, her "Wind-Breaking Spear" had already reached the fourth level, with a force output of 2.2 times.
This was considered very good even amongst Warlords.
That evening, the two planned to go out for dinner.
After Luo Fan returned home, he took a shower, changed clothes, and left Mingyue Residential Area with Fang Xueyi.
They had dinner at a high-end restaurant run by the HR Alliance in Yangzhou City and then returned home.
Because they would be separating the next day, they spent a long time exercising together that night.
Early the next morning, Luo Fan saw Fang Xueyi off at the station.
After watching Fang Xueyi leave, he returned home.
He was ready to begin cultivating Gene Energy.
Since Fang Xueyi had gone today, the house was empty.
Yesterday, he had already told Luo Feng that he wouldn't be visiting him today.
Luo Fan entered the training room and sat directly on the sofa.
The Genetic Primordial Energy Cultivation method did not require a specific posture for cultivation, so he could be as comfortable as he wanted.
He closed his eyes and began to sense his surroundings.
Soon, he "saw" the energy around him.
He "saw" that his surroundings were filled with points of light.
With a thought, his mental energy began to draw the surrounding points of light into his body.
This is also why the Genetic Primordial Energy Cultivation method can be used by Martial Artists.
Even if mental energy is weak, it can guide Gene Energy into one's body.
In reality, mental energy is just a catalyst.
Its main purpose is to observe the surrounding Gene Energy.
For a Mental Energy Practitioner cultivating, the mental energy would also draw Gene Energy into their consciousness sea, converting it into mental energy.
So if the Mental Energy Practitioners on Earth knew about the Genetic Primordial Energy Cultivation method, they would stop at nothing to obtain this cultivation method from Luo Fan.
As the Gene Energy surged into his body, Luo Fan felt an all-encompassing comfort.
It was as if every cell in his body was trembling.
Gene Energy continuously flowed into every single cell.
It was like a person who had been starving for days suddenly getting to eat.
His cells absorbed the surrounding Gene Energy without pause.
Soon, his cells reached their absorption limit.
He opened his eyes, feeling a sense of fullness throughout his body.
He checked the time, it had only been three minutes.
Part of this was due to his own mediocre bodily talent, but the main reason was that Genetic Primordial Energy Cultivation absorbed Gene Energy at an incredibly fast rate.
If the Five Hearts Toward Heaven Method strengthens one's perception and uses a few acupoints to let Gene Energy flow naturally into the body,
then Genetic Primordial Energy Cultivation is like wielding a whip, forcing Gene Energy to rush into the body through every pore.
That's why, after just three minutes of cultivation, he reached the limit.
If used for restoring Gene Energy, Genetic Primordial Energy Cultivation's efficiency is countless times that of the Five Hearts Toward Heaven Method.
He walked to the punch-force testing machine and threw a full-strength punch.
"Bang!"
