Douluo Continent: A Thousand Miles of Cultivation

However, his absorption of the soul rings beyond the limit allowed Qian Renxue to see different possibilities, but curiosity killed the cat!

"I think the Grand Elder has his reasons! After all, the Grand Elder is a level 99 Limit Douluo, and no one in the world understands better than him how to cultivate the Angel Martial Soul in the best way!" Qian Shui used Qian Daoliu as a shield, trying to dissuade Qian Renxue from her idea.

"Yes, Grandpa wouldn't hurt me!" Qian Renxue stopped having wild thoughts when Qian Daoliu was mentioned.

That's actually true, because with the existence of the Angel God's test, the age of the spirit ring is not a problem at all. Qian Daoliu doesn't even have a spirit ring lower than black!

Could it be that he really absorbed the ten-thousand-year soul ring in the first stage?

Although it's theoretically possible, Qian Shui said, "It's possible, it's possible. Give me the most advanced cultivation method, and I'll start cultivating from the womb!"

Therefore, for the angel race, the best course of action is to play it safe; they will eventually rise to the top.

Chapter 28 Reverse Engineering Research

"Xiao Shui, what about your soul skills? I didn't see you use them during the soul battle that day." Qian Renxue transformed into a curious kitten, bombarding her with questions.

"It's not useless. My martial soul is special, so you can't see the effect of the spirit rings."

It's really useless, but he didn't want to go on and on to explain how he used the Soul Skill without going through the Soul Ring, the skill releaser.

So he made up an excuse to get away with it.

"Oh, oh, oh, what are your soul skills?" Qian Shui absorbed soul rings beyond his level, so Qian Renxue was naturally very curious!

"My first soul skill is the Netherworld Spirit Cat from 800 years ago—Netherworld Possession. You know, it's located on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, the place I went to at the beginning."

The effect is to increase speed. It has some dark attributes, and the aura will be restrained when activated, which is not bad.

The second soul skill is the Fox's Leap, which comes from a 6000-year-old desert fox and was hunted in the desert area outside the Mysterious Grand Canyon.

It's also an amplification skill, a speed amplification, but it specializes in jumping. When activating soul power, the jump is very light and quiet, with stealth characteristics, and it complements the first soul skill, which is quite good!

The third soul skill comes from the 9000-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear - Terrorclaw Breaker. This bear is really strong. I've been fighting him for more than a month and I still can't kill him!

And I even obtained an external soul bone from my right palm bone! The two skills are truly overpowered: invincible armor penetration and incredible attack power!

Qian Shui briefly introduced his three soul skills, and while speaking, he also flicked out the claws of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's external soul bone, not caring about hiding his strength.

"Xiao Shui, don't use it lightly!" Although Qian Shui's tone was relaxed, Qian Renxue was terrified. Qian Shui's experiences had never been simple, let alone at such a young age.

"I know, I know, it's too powerful, I'm afraid it'll kill someone!"

"What?! Seriously! How did you end up in the Lost Canyon?!"

"Isn't it only over there that desert foxes live?"

……

The two chatted happily, and for several days in a row, Qian Shui told Qian Renxue about her experiences over the past few years.

The little girl was very curious, and the life in Qianshui was something she had never experienced before, which greatly satisfied her curiosity.

Qian Shui didn't want to go to school, so he asked for leave. His reason was quite good: he wanted to consolidate his cultivation level, which he had just reached the Soul Venerable level.

He did indeed have this need; he needed to calm down, reflect, and think about the path ahead. After all, he didn't have a reliable mentor to guide him, otherwise he wouldn't be so troubled.

"Ring, oh ring, turn into an old man for me!"

Qianshui lay on the grass in the yard, picked up the ring, and let the sunlight shine through the hole.

It's impossible to find Bibi Dong; she put too much pressure on Qian Shui. Qian Shui doesn't really know how to deal with this cheap teacher.

Being a wife? Don't be ridiculous, this isn't some private, self-indulgent game in a small room, a living person is standing right in front of you! Mocking his own hypocrisy, Qian Shui could only choose to remain silent and maintain politeness.

Bibi Dong didn't have time either. She wanted to take care of Qian Shui, but he lived with Qian Renxue, which made her very worried.

"We have to feel our way across the river!" Qian Shui lamented, feeling miserable for not having a cheat code or an old man.

Actually, he already had a plan, thanks to Qian Renxue!

"Xiao Shui, who were those two girls the other day?"

"What girls?" Qian Renxue was referring to Feng Jingyi and Chen Sha, but Qian Shui didn't react.

"Those two girls you were with after school!"

"Oh~ that's~ oh! What are their names again? Xiaofeng? What's Sha? They're the class monitor and her friends."

He remembered the white-haired girl perfectly; she was practically a perfect fit for his fantasies! But he couldn't remember her name—truly, he hadn't forgotten his original intention!

"You're here again~" Qian Renxue chuckled. "The class monitor is quite nice; he saw you, his new classmate, off before you even left the school."

"What? Envious? Want to go to school too!" Although he didn't want to go to school himself, in the spirit of dragging his friends along, it wouldn't be bad to get Qian Renxue involved as well.

"Actually, I wanted to too, but Dad didn't agree." Every rich girl has her own troubles. Although I was somewhat prepared, I was still speechless.

"What a pampered young lady! If you keep doing this, you'll be completely controlled for the rest of your life!" Although that time was approaching and Qian Renxue would inevitably infiltrate the Heavenly Dou Empire, it was impossible to say these things out loud, so it was better to tease her.

"The Pope will definitely find you a prince, or a young sect leader or something!"

"What?! Who wants a prince?!"

"Then you have no choice in the matter~"

"Hmph, you think you can escape when I'm powerless to do what I'm doing?"

Qian Renxue was also aware of the arranged marriages among powerful families, and that it was difficult for people like her and Qian Shui to make their own decisions.

"Such a good thing? The Spirit Hall even provides wives for its members?"

"I'll give you two! I think those two girls from the other day were pretty good!"

“Really good!”

"Qianshui!"

"Hey, talk to me properly, don't throw punches at the drop of a hat! What's this little girl thinking all day? Two at once! Doesn't she know the saying 'one man and one woman for life'?!"

"But in the stories you used to tell, didn't the protagonists always have many women? And isn't it normal for powerful people to have many partners?"

Qian Shuike can't stand feudal dregs, even though he likes them as a man—but he's an upright person!

"What? There are plenty of one-on-one options!"

"Then tell me!"

Seeing that Qian Shui was about to tell a story again after so long, Qian Renxue readily agreed!

"Ahem, go ahead and tell me! The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, there's so much to it, I'm afraid you, little girl, can't possibly explain it all!"

"There are still several left! Great!"

……

And just like that, Mr. Jin's works were unearthed from the depths of Qian Shui's mind! And they inspired him.

"Sharp sword, soft sword, heavy sword, wooden sword!" The sword demon's sword cultivation process is a good analogy and reference.

The sharp sword emphasizes speed and skill, the soft sword emphasizes control and dexterity, the heavy sword emphasizes strength and simplicity, and the wooden sword represents the pinnacle of skill.

To be fair, Qian Shui Lian Li Jian can achieve that level. Although all four levels can be cultivated simultaneously, there is no clear connection between them.

Qian Shui is currently only good at cooking; his skills in controlling the fighting are severely lacking. He can use other methods to increase his strength, but he lacks the experience and insight to return to simplicity.

"Although it's very general, it's already a fairly complete methodology that you can refer to!" Telling Qian Renxue a story was a bit uncomfortable, but it also brought back many memories for him!

Especially the analysis of metal-based martial arts!

"Gui Mei Qu Wu Wang? What comes after that?" But without a cheat code, one can only rely on limited memory to reconstruct the story from scratch.

"The Nine Swords of Dugu emphasizes offense as the best form of defense, forcing the enemy to defend! And prolonged defense will inevitably lead to defeat!"

The original novel "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" contains a detailed description of the Sword Demon's swordsmanship. The Nine Swords may seem to be just a martial art and not very powerful, but it is about principles. This makes it more helpful to Qian Shui than all other powerful moves!

"I can use my speed advantage to create an overwhelming attack density, which can initially achieve the goal of offense as defense! But to truly realize this, experience and vision are indispensable!"

More importantly, it's about fully utilizing the techniques!

The core of martial arts is "mind, skill, and body," and what Qian Shui currently lacks is mainly mind and skill.

To put it bluntly, he's a nouveau riche now. He has the superpower of soul power, but he doesn't know how to use it. He can only imitate the flying bricks from the Douluo Continent.

At least we know it's possible, so reverse engineering isn't just a headless chicken anymore! He's got some skills, so a little research isn't a big problem!

Moreover, research takes time, and not going to school gives me that time, which is simply wonderful!

Chapter 29 Wind Sword

Since Qian Shui obtained his third soul ring, he immediately took leave and announced to the outside world that he was in seclusion to master the strength of a Soul Master.

While the facts are correct, the actual content differs somewhat!

In the days since returning, Qian Shui has resumed his habit of running around Wuhun City, and naturally, he has also resumed his lifestyle of being dragged around by Qian Renxue.

These past few days, the two of them have been going to great lengths, from the heavens to the earth. With Qian Renxue's execution ability and Qian Shui's imagination, their place has been completely transformed.

Although Qian Renxue had to attend classes during the day, Qian Shui did not. The two of them spent their time buying many things, and Qian Shui would tinker with these things while doing her research during the day.

For example, some flowers and plants, as well as Qian Shui's favorite vegetables, were planted in the yard. Qian Renxue thought that flowers should be planted, because flowers are so beautiful!

Moreover, Qian Shui also found other forms of entertainment—archery!

To be fair, he had made his own bow back in the Star Dou Great Forest, and he was quite good at it. He wasn't perfect, but he was definitely above average!

After setting up the target, the two girls often had an archery contest. It was obvious that Qian Renxue was not as skilled as Qian Shui, so she often lost.

But it doesn't matter if you can't beat me at archery, you can't beat me at fighting!

So they fought more and more often, but Qian Renxue felt that the fights were becoming increasingly difficult. This was because Qian Shui had finally seen the light and was no longer fixated on a single, fatal blow, but instead began to focus on the practical applications of combat.

He publicly claimed he wanted better control over the application of his soul skills, but in reality, he was developing martial arts techniques and the ability to control them freely. After all, the ability to adjust them infinitely is the best.

……

"Little Cricket, I'm sure I'll beat you this time!"

That day, the two began archery again after dinner. As the sun set, the three main halls of Wuhun City became even more magnificent.

"How is that possible? You've never won before!"

"Hmph, you'll only know if you try!"

After the tough talk, the actual confrontation naturally followed. Unfortunately, without honing her skills, she was still lacking. So even though Qian Renxue was exceptionally talented in every aspect, she still kept losing.
