In one morning, Shi Quan had already customized Yu Tianheng's initial training plan.
The improvements in strength and speed were all integrated into physical training. This time, the plan was specifically tailored for his Martial Spirit.
To help Yu Tianheng improve his control over lightning power, Shi Quan used a very old-fashioned method.
Shi Quan found a special metal, similar to the tungsten filament in a tungsten light bulb from his previous World. When electricity is injected into the metal, it produces light and heat. However, this metal's load-bearing capacity far exceeds that of tungsten filament; even Yu Tianheng's full power release might not be able to melt this metal.
The requirement was simple: after Yu Tianheng released his Martial Spirit, he was to inject the lightning power from his arm into the metal, and then make the metal emit different brightness levels. During this process, Yu Tianheng had to fully control the intensity of the lightning, thereby achieving a training process. When Yu Tianheng could freely control the brightness emitted by the metal, his control over lightning power would also undergo a qualitative change.
When Yu Tianheng saw the training method proposed by Shi Quan, he was somewhat skeptical. Only after he tried it did he realize its difficulty. Injecting lightning power into the metal was not hard, but controlling the intensity of the lightning was. The lightning power was extremely violent, and he couldn't control its intensity at all. He didn't know how long it would take to meet Shi Quan's requirements.
"This is too difficult, isn't it?" Yu Tianheng looked at the dazzling metal in his hand, his eyes full of agitation.
Shi Quan, who was beside him, spoke to comfort him: "Captain, lightning power is inherently violent. During the training process, you must calm your Heart-Nature. If your mind is unsettled, the lightning power will only be harder to control. Don't try to suppress or control it; calm down and feel the power of the lightning. Treat the lightning power as a part of your body; this might help your training."
"Whew!" Yu Tianheng let out a long breath, looked at Shi Quan, and said with a wry smile: "Shi Quan, it's easy for you to say, but not so easy to do."
"Where there's a will, there's a way," Shi Quan said with a smile, encouraging him. "And everything is difficult at the beginning. Once you get the hang of it, it'll be simple."
"Tianheng, keep it up!" Dugu Yan, who was nearby, also cheered Yu Tianheng on.
"Mm!" Yu Tianheng happily nodded towards Dugu Yan.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. The sour stench of love."
Shi Quan pouted. What he had said for a long time was not as effective as Dugu Yan's single cheer. Seeing this, he could only silently turn his head away.
"Haha." Ning Rongrong chuckled from the side, saying, "That's right, that's right, 'where there's a will, there's a way,' doesn't that mean I'll surpass you someday?"
Shi Quan smiled, "Others have ambition, you're just daydreaming. You'd better work hard."
"How dare you say this Young Miss is daydreaming? Are you looking for another beating?" Ning Rongrong glared at Shi Quan, pouting.
"Squat properly, don't let your posture deform." Shi Quan immediately changed the subject.
"Hmph!" Ning Rongrong snorted, and her horse stance returned to its steady form.
...
The next day.
Morning, collective dormitory.
He painstakingly customized training plans for everyone, all for the short purple-haired girl in front of him—Dugu Yan.
"Dugu Yan, your Martial Spirit is the Bi Lin Snake, and you're pursuing a poison-attribute control system direction?" Shi Quan looked at the information in his hand, frowning as he confirmed with Dugu Yan.
"What? Is there a problem?" Dugu Yan asked, looking at Shi Quan's frowning expression, her words carrying a hint of mockery.
"Then how are the toxins in your body stored?" Shi Quan put down the information in his hand and asked Dugu Yan.
"Storing toxins?" Dugu Yan was instead confused by Shi Quan's question and said, "My toxins are inherent to the Bi Lin Snake Martial Spirit. What do you mean by storing toxins?"
Hearing Dugu Yan's answer, Shi Quan's brow furrowed even deeper. He said, "Based on my understanding of Martial Spirits, although Martial Spirits are energy bodies, they are actually still a part of the body, considered another manifestation of a Spirit Master's Life. I don't know much about the Bi Lin Snake Martial Spirit.
But one thing I can confirm is that Beast Spirits can hardly attach poison-attribute spirit rings. If a poison-attribute spirit ring is added, when absorbing the spirit ring, the poison-attribute energy within the spirit ring will transfer the toxins to the Spirit Master's main body while fusing with the Martial Spirit. Generally speaking, very few Beast Spirits can absorb toxins themselves without transferring them to the host."
"Beast Spirits absorbing poison-attribute spirit rings will transfer toxins into the body?" Dugu Yan was stunned for a moment, then immediately shook her head and affirmed, "I am not poisoned."
If she were poisoned, how could her grandfather not know? So Dugu Yan was very certain that she was not poisoned.
"Don't I know whether I'm poisoned or not?"
Shi Quan thought to himself, putting everything else aside, Dugu Bo really protected Dugu Yan extremely well.
In the original work, when Tang San helped her detoxify, it wasn't specified whether Dugu Yan knew about her condition, but given Dugu Bo's personality, he would rather Dugu Yan grow up carefree. Dugu Yan's Heart-Nature was still somewhat immature even in her twenties. If Dugu Yan knew about her poisoning, she probably wouldn't have been like that. It was clear that Dugu Bo had kept their poisoning a secret all along.
"Then it should be that the Bi Lin Snake Martial Spirit has some special innate ability that allows it to store toxins within the Martial Spirit, thereby preventing them from transferring to your body." Shi Quan nodded, but still said, "However, just in case, Dugu Yan, could you extend your hand for me to check?"
Dugu Yan asked with a look of doubt, "What? Shi Quan, can your Martial Spirit sense toxins?"
"That's not it." Shi Quan shook his head and explained, "Dugu Yan, you also know that my Martial Spirit is a mutated Martial Spirit, and its mutation direction is precisely Life. So my Martial Spirit is more sensitive to Life in this regard."
"I think, through contact, I might be able to confirm your physical condition, which will also facilitate the creation of a personalized training plan."
"Is that so?" Dugu Yan still had some suspicion in her expression, but she still extended her right hand.
Shi Quan raised his right hand, summoned his Blue Silver Grass Martial Spirit, and the Blue Silver Grass extended out, wrapping around Dugu Yan's wrist. Internal Energy flowed into Dugu Yan's body with the Blue Silver Grass as a bridge.
He began to seriously sense. He also wanted to see what the situation was like inside Dugu Yan's body.
The Nine Yin Nine Yang Divine Skill has the effect of being immune to all poisons, so the Internal Energy is naturally sensitive to toxins. As the Internal Energy entered Dugu Yan's body, Shi Quan immediately sensed the toxins within Dugu Yan's body.
Although Shi Quan didn't know much about poison, he could clearly feel that the toxins in Dugu Yan's body were very messy, clearly a mixed poison.
However, thinking about it, it was normal. The Bi Lin Snake Martial Spirit came with an unknown number of generations of Bi Lin Snake poison inherited when it awakened, and Dugu Yan had subsequently absorbed three poison-attribute spirit rings. This was equivalent to being poisoned three more times. Three types of toxins plus the Bi Lin Snake poison mixed together, wouldn't that become a mixed poison?
The most important thing was that these toxins were Bloodline-derived toxins, almost pervading Dugu Yan's entire body, deeply embedded in her muscles and bones.
"Fortunately, her spirit power, due to the Bi Lin Snake Martial Spirit, has a stronger suppressive ability against toxins. Given the situation inside her body, if it were in anyone else, they would have died suddenly long ago."
Shi Quan thought to himself, and a flash of inspiration suddenly crossed his mind.
His Nine Yin Nine Yang Internal Energy has the special effect of being immune to all poisons, giving it a powerful suppressive force against toxins. In the Wuxia World, using Internal Energy to expel poison is common. So, could he use Internal Energy to assist Dugu Yan in expelling poison, thereby eliminating the need for medicinal assistance?
"It's worth a try! But I still need to test it."
With these thoughts, Shi Quan slowly retracted the Blue Silver Grass.
"How is it? I'm definitely fine, right?" Dugu Yan nodded slightly, then said, "How could someone who deals with poison get poisoned themselves? And I also have my grandfather..."
Shi Quan shook his head slightly, a hint of hesitation appearing on his face. After a pause, he said, "Dugu Yan, first release your Martial Spirit. I want to see your Martial Spirit."
Seeing Shi Quan's expression, Dugu Yan looked at him with a half-smile. "What, you really want to say I'm poisoned? If you don't know what being poisoned feels like, I could help you out?"
Shi Quan understood Dugu Yan's excessive confidence. After all, she had a Titled Douluo grandfather renowned for poison. If she were poisoned, how could Dugu Bo not tell her?
"I don't have a masochistic tendency." Shi Quan still said, "Your body is indeed a bit different from ordinary people. As for whether you're poisoned, it's really hard to say."
"You really dare to say I'm poisoned." Dugu Yan's eyes widened, and her Martial Spirit instantly possessed her body. Her legs fused together into a thick snake tail, a diamond-shaped green scale appeared on her forehead, her green eyes became exceptionally sharp, and a cold aura rushed towards him.
"Hiss, it seems I really want to taste what being poisoned is like?" The snake tail swayed back and forth, the emerald green figure approached, and a foul, fishy smell assailed him.
"Alright, alright, whatever you say is fine, okay?" Shi Quan quickly retreated backward, hastily moving far away.
"Hmph." Dugu Yan snorted coldly.
"Let me check again, don't get excited." Shi Quan's Blue Silver Grass extended out again, resting on Dugu Yan's arm.
As the Internal Energy entered Dugu Yan's body again, Dugu Yan seemed to be stimulated. A verdant aura suddenly emanated from her body, and Dugu Yan's face turned pale. She clutched her head and let out a scream, her entire body beginning to convulse wildly.
"Oh no, I've caused trouble." Shi Quan's expression changed, and he quickly withdrew his Internal Energy.
"What's wrong?"
Everyone in the dormitory was immediately drawn by Dugu Yan's scream.
"Dugu Yan, what's wrong with you?"
Yu Tianheng, in particular, looked shocked. He leaped down from the third floor, ignoring the swirling poisonous mist, and rushed forward to embrace the convulsing Dugu Yan.
"Ling Ling, quickly help Du Gu Yan with treatment!" Yu Tianheng frantically shouted, looking at Dugu Yan's pained expression.
The dormitory immediately descended into chaos.
