Douluo Continent: Not enough bloodline? Make up for it with brains

Chapter 32 The Great Art of Devouring Heaven and Earth (Please continue reading!!!)

To achieve a perfect score in a test of eating steamed buns, a unique skill was taught?

Xu Yuan isn't stupid.

To put it simply, it's just some techniques for circulating soul power to aid digestion.

Ordinary Soul Masters will have similar effects as long as they circulate their Soul Power; otherwise, the assessment would not have specifically stated that Soul Power cannot be circulated.

However, Xu Yuan's technique can make this effect even stronger.

That's it.

The reason it's called a unique skill is twofold: firstly, to attract the little fat boy's attention, and secondly, because Xu Yuan originally intended to continue refining these techniques and truly develop them into a unique skill.

The seeds of future extraordinary skills.

This can be considered a unique skill.

No problem.

The chubby boy didn't help Xu Yuan for any special skills; he was simply curious, kind-hearted, and had the ability to help Xu Yuan.

Xu Lizhi wasn't stupid. Although he couldn't consider any deeper pros and cons, such as hidden score bonuses, he at least knew that Xu Yuan wouldn't give away his secret technique just for a few steamed buns.

Or rather, no unique skill could possibly be priced so low.

Even if it's just a little bit of digestive aid, Xu Lizhi feels it's worth it.

"Watch closely, little fatty, this is my Devouring Heaven and Earth Technique!" Xu Yuan circulated his soul power.

The surrounding天地元气 (heaven and earth energy) converged, and five elements faintly gathered and merged into his body.

"what?"

In another room, Cai Yue'er, who was watching Xu Yuan's situation through the monitor, exclaimed in surprise.

"It's not a scam?"

She was stunned.

Although Xu Yuan only used the name of his unique skill to attract the chubby boy to help him, strictly speaking, he did not lie to the chubby boy.

The so-called Devouring Heaven and Earth Technique is a unique skill developed by Xu Yuan himself. It can indeed be considered a prototype, and it is not a simple summary of techniques, but it requires some prerequisites.

Of course, even if the prerequisites are not met and the five elements are not mastered, one can simply refer to Xu Yuan's soul power circulation techniques.

Soul power circulates within the body, flowing into the five internal organs.

Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth correspond to the five internal organs. As his soul power circulates to the corresponding organs, Xu Yuan introduces the five elements from the outside world and refines them into his soul power.

The five elements correspond to the five internal organs and six bowels. The five elements generate each other and are in balance. Xu Yuan circulates his soul power and gradually guides the five elements to begin to shift. Fire generates earth, and the earth element in his soul power increases. With Xu Yuan's skills, this change is fed back to his body organs.

The bias of elements is reflected in the organs; this is the core of Xu Yuan's method.

Earth corresponds to the stomach and spleen.

With the enhancement of his stomach function, coupled with the all-round strengthening of his stomach function by his soul power, the steamed bun in Xu Yuan's stomach was quickly digested.

As energy is digested, it is transformed by the spleen to generate qi, which then nourishes the lungs. This process generates metal from earth, followed by water from metal. The essence of the lungs descends to nourish the kidney essence, and the lung qi descends to help the kidneys receive qi.

Water nourishes wood; the kidneys store essence to nourish liver blood; kidney yin assists liver yin to prevent liver yang from rising excessively.

Wood generates fire, the liver stores blood to nourish the heart, and the liver's function of regulating the flow of blood helps the heart circulate blood.

Then fire generates earth.

The five elements generate each other, creating an endless cycle of life.

In this cycle, the internal organs are affected and mobilized, which in turn affects the whole body, transporting the digested energy throughout the body.

Xu Yuan slowly opened his eyes.

The steamed bun in his stomach had been almost completely digested and absorbed, turning into soul power. At the same time, his blood and qi were more abundant, and the physical strength he had previously consumed was almost fully restored.

The chubby boy looked surprised.

In the observation room, Cai Yue'er also looked deep in thought.

A secret technique that uses the five elements to promote digestion?

Which sect does this belong to?

Or is it a new research result of the Spirit Pagoda?

"Little Fatty—"

"My name is Xu Lizhi."

"Okay, little fatty, have you mastered the Five Elements?"

Xu Lizhi shook his head blankly.

Xu Yuan waved his hand.

"It's alright. It's just a little less efficient, but it's still more effective than ordinary techniques. You're probably also going to take the Inner Academy exam, right? Once you get into the Inner Academy, just come to me and learn this unique skill."

Xu Lizhi nodded, not worried that Xu Yuan was lying to him.

This is impossible to lie about.

Ye Xinglan watched from the side, her furrowed brows gradually relaxing. When she saw Xu Yuan's gaze sweep over her, she snorted and turned her head away, no longer glaring at Xu Yuan.

"Junior, your Devouring Heaven and Earth Technique is quite impressive." Wang Hao exclaimed, having personally experienced it firsthand, he could sense the changes in Xu Yuan's spirit and energy.

In such a short time, the energy from that large quantity of steamed buns was digested, replenishing physical and spiritual strength.

"Actually, there are still many things to improve in my unique skill. I guess I'll need Little Fatty's help in the future," Xu Yuan chuckled.

His Devouring Heaven and Earth Technique was not created out of thin air. Even though the idea of ​​the Five Elements corresponding to the Five Internal Organs seems to be a concept provided by his previous life, its true core is to shift the elemental orientation of soul power to the body's organs, thereby more accurately and effectively strengthening the internal organs and further promoting the fusion of the Five Elements with the internal organs.

To achieve all of this, one cannot do without the circulation of soul power, specifically its pathways within the body's meridians.

This was a summary he made after using his uncle's power to investigate the soul power operation of soul masters with different five elemental attributes and collecting a large number of meditation methods for self-correction and adjustment by soul masters with the five elemental attributes.

If it weren't for Xu Shengqun, those soul masters would never have revealed their meditation methods completely. This is the circulation route of soul power within the body. If they were to be targeted and their weaknesses in soul power circulation were found, they would be in big trouble.

Xu Yuan no longer lacks materials regarding the circulation path of the five elements' soul power within his body, but he still lacks materials in other aspects.

For example, the soul power circulation characteristics of a soul master like Xu Lizhi, who is born with a large appetite and outstanding digestive ability.

There are also the materials inside Shrek Academy, including Xuanzi's meditation method from ten thousand years ago, and the meditation methods of Soul Masters with Devouring Characteristics and Outstanding Digestive Abilities that Shrek Academy has collected over the past twenty thousand years.

As for why not take it from the Spirit Pagoda?

Ha, the Soul Masters of the Spirit Pagoda pay more attention to the Soul Spirit. Even if the Martial Soul has related characteristics, how much of it can be applied to the meditation method?

The Body Sect has sufficient information, but it is more related to Qi and Blood, which can serve as a complement.

Back to topic.

Although Xu Yuan's Devouring Heaven and Earth Technique seems to have taken a big step forward, it is actually still far from perfect.

He had only been researching it for six months.

How could he possibly perfect the steps of corresponding the five elements to the five internal organs? He hadn't even fully optimized the soul power circulation routes he had collected yet.

"Alright, the three of you are all participating in the Inner Court Assessment. Let's get started. The next stage is practical combat, which will test your overall combat capabilities."

Wang Hao, along with the teacher who had previously led Ye Xinglan, took the three of them to the next level.

This time, they arrived at a very large circular room, and their opponents had already been arranged. Ten opponents were lined up in front of Xu Yuan and his two companions.

Don't stir up trouble. The protagonist isn't stupid; why would he teach his secret techniques just to get a perfect score on an exam?

Firstly, the ultimate technique has only been developed for half a year, and it also requires the control of the Five Elements. Without that ability, it's at most a technique for enhancing digestion. Secondly, the protagonist will need Xu Lizhi's cooperation to perfect this ultimate technique in the future.
