Douluo Continent: Targeted Thoughts, Winning Over Bibi Dong at the Start

The soul power within the thousand streams slowly condensed into a perfectly round pearl in the lower dantian, which was naturally the soul core.

After the soul core took shape, Qian Daoliu's most direct feeling was that his soul power had become much stronger, which could support him in battle for a longer period of time.

Besides, Qian Daoliu sensed that he could condense another soul core, but since he was out and about, it wasn't the right time to condense a soul core. So he suppressed his inner excitement and looked toward the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

The Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire appeared completely calm, without any movement or Qin Heng in sight, clearly indicating that he had already entered it.

Qian Daoliu was a little worried. Even he couldn't stay in contact with the spring water of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well for a long time. Would Qin Heng really be okay if he just soaked in it directly?

At this moment, Qin Heng was in an extremely comfortable state.

After entering the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, he immediately activated the Pure Yang Limitless Technique. As the ice and fire energy entered his body, the extremely strong and yang soul power within Qin Heng's body seemed to undergo some kind of miraculous change.

This Pure Yang Limitless Skill was created by Zhang Sanfeng. He entered the Dao through martial arts, so how could he not understand the principle that yin cannot produce and yang cannot grow?

The initial stage of Pure Yang Wuji Gong only cultivates the most powerful and yang soul force. Only when one truly understands what Yin and Yang are and what Tai Chi is can one be said to have comprehended the true essence of Pure Yang Wuji Gong, and the skill can be considered to have reached a state of proficiency.

Over the years, Qin Heng has never understood the profound mystery of this martial art. His practice has remained superficial, and he has never experienced the true meaning of Yin and Yang in harmony. This is why he has never truly mastered Tai Chi Chuan or Tai Chi Sword, and can only imitate others blindly.

Now, after consuming the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass, and undergoing the tempering of his body with ice and fire, Qin Heng has finally come to his understanding!

Tai Chi originates from Wuji, representing the mechanism of movement and stillness, and is the mother of Yin and Yang. Movement is divided into emptiness and fullness, hardness and softness, opening and closing; stillness returns to one Qi and is centered and upright. The key lies in dynamic balance, neither resisting nor losing, neither excessive nor insufficient.

The true meaning of Tai Chi is to overcome hardness with softness, to harmonize Yin and Yang, to relax the whole body, and to use intention without force. Tai Chi is not a slow-motion "softened version of external martial arts", but a system of physical and mental cultivation and adaptability with relaxation, wholeness, and harmony as its core.

As his cultivation level improved, Qin Heng completely entered a state of complete absorption in the universe. The soul power he cultivated in his dantian began to gradually divide into yin and yang attributes, much like the Yin-Yang duality of ice and fire.

Two more days and two nights passed, and just when Qian Daoliu could no longer sit still, there was finally movement in the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire.

"Splash!" Water splashed everywhere. Qin Heng jumped up, and Qian Daoliu immediately went to meet him.

"Huh? Something seems off about this kid!"

After sensing it for a while, Qian Daoliu confirmed that Qin Heng's aura had undergone a huge change. Compared to Qin Heng before entering the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang symbol, Qin Heng's aura at this moment had become much more rounded, giving people a very comfortable feeling at first glance.

Will this change still occur after the Ice and Fire Body Refinement?

Qian Daoliu hesitated for a moment, then, without dwelling on it, took out a robe from his storage ring and tossed it to the naked Qin Heng, asking, "How do you feel?"

"Grandpa Qian, my cultivation level has broken through two levels and reached level 29."

Upon hearing this, Qian Daoliu frowned, turned to Yue Guan, and asked, "Yue Guan, why has Xiao Heng's soul power only increased by so little?"

Upon hearing this, Yue Guan quickly explained, "Reporting to the Grand Elder, after consuming the Blazing Apricot Blossom and the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass and undergoing initial refining, the cultivation level did not increase much, and it is even possible that there will be no increase at all."

The more important function of these two immortal herbs is to strengthen the foundation and nourish the vital energy, making the young prince's foundation more solid, and giving the young prince immunity to ice and fire attributes, as well as a certain degree of poison immunity.

As he continues to cultivate, the Fiery Apricot Blossom and the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass will completely fuse with the young prince's body, thus enhancing his cultivation speed and aptitude.

"I see. I misunderstood you. Yue Guan, Gui Mei, Xiao Heng and I have finished refining the immortal herbs. Next, it's your turn. You can each choose an immortal herb to refine, and I will protect you."

"Thank you, Great Offering!" Yue Guan chose the Qi Rong Tong Tian Chrysanthemum he had been longing for without hesitation. As for the ghost, it took the Netherworld Dark Flower that Yue Guan had chosen for it.

The Netherworld Dark Flower and the Light Paradise Grass are celestial herbs with completely opposite properties; consuming them can greatly enhance the dark attributes of ghosts and demons.

While Chrysanthemum Demon was refining the immortal herb, Qian Daoliu began to ponder the method of condensing soul cores. With his cultivation level of 99 Limit Douluo, after condensing soul cores, he concluded that this method was not difficult and quickly made progress. However, he still lacked a test subject.

If someone could help put it into practice and see if the method for condensing the soul core that he summarized is feasible, that would be great.

Thinking of this, Qian Daoliu deliberately muttered to himself beside Qin Heng: "After consuming the Primordial Immortal Herb, a soul core similar to that that only a 100,000-year-old soul beast can condense appeared in my body. This thing greatly enhanced the strength of my soul power, and I also summarized the method of its condensation. However, this aspect is not perfect yet, and I still need to find someone to experiment with it before I can spread it. I just don't know what level of cultivation I should find to experiment with."

The next second, Qin Heng's thoughts rang in Qian Daoliu's ears: "In my previous life, after I took the Hunyuan Immortal Grass to condense my soul core, I had a similar idea. At first, I sought out the elders of the Spirit Hall. At that time, I was already a level 99 Limit Douluo. With my protection, the elders condensed their soul cores very smoothly."

Even when I wasn't around, some elders successfully condensed their own soul cores. This shows that it's a certainty for a Title Douluo to condense their soul core; there's no danger involved.

Contra players have a certain probability of condensing a soul core, especially those who have been stuck at level 89 for many years. Once they can condense a soul core, they can immediately break through to level 90 and become a titled Douluo.

As for those below the Soul Douluo level, my experiments have shown that no Soul Master has successfully condensed a Soul Core. This is likely due to insufficient accumulation of experience. In this life, once I reach level 70, I will personally break this record and condense a Soul Core at the Soul Saint level!

After hearing Qin Heng's words, Qian Daoliu was first stunned, and then several of the Qian family's juniors in the Angel Legion who had been stuck at level 89 for many years came to mind.

Don't ask Qian Daoliu why he only thought of the younger generation of the Qian family in the Angel Legion. He has been retired from the position of Pope for many years. How could he have the mind to understand the Soul Masters below the Title Douluo level in the Spirit Hall?

Suddenly, Qian Daoliu's eyes lit up. He remembered someone: Ye Renxin, the head of the Ye family of the Nine Heart Begonia. If he remembered correctly, this old man Ye Renxin had been stuck at level 89 Soul Douluo for thirty years, and he probably didn't have many years left to live.
