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

Chapter 45 Refining Qi and Blood

"This is..." Xu Yuan looked at the churning medicinal liquid in the wooden bucket, and was shocked by the immense energy contained within it.

"This is a medicinal bath from the Body Sect, specially designed to help disciples like you who haven't fully developed yet condense their Qi and blood power," Mu Ye explained, then instructed Xu Yuan: "Remember, when you absorb the power of the medicinal liquid, don't refine it with your soul power, just use your soul power to transport it. Follow the acupoints I've pointed out to you and compress the medicinal power into the acupoints."

As he spoke, Mu Ye kept pressing on Xu Yuan's body, each acupoint precise and accurate.

Xu Yuan memorized these acupoints and nodded.

"Zhenhua told me about your idea of ​​creating a Qi and Blood Martial Soul, and I agree with his steps. Don't rush."

"You're still young. Although I controlled the dosage of the medicine in this bath, there should still be some left. After your Qi and blood are condensed, if you feel you can't absorb it anymore, don't absorb any more medicinal power. Don't think about using the excess medicinal power to complete the Qi and blood contract in one go," Mu Ye instructed.

Xu Yuan scratched his head and chuckled awkwardly.

What the teacher said sounds so similar to scenes from some novels.

"Don't worry, teacher. I'm still very cautious. Besides, the contract and everything else aren't ready yet. My uncle also told me before that I must try it with him."

Mu Ye didn't believe Xu Yuan's nonsense about being steady and rolled his eyes.

"Just remember that. Don't be impulsive later. Go try it with your uncle. Even if there's a problem with your contract, he can correct it for you later. It's like insurance. And as long as you don't act rashly there, you can basically be guaranteed to be safe." Mu Ye also explained more reasons to help Xu Yuan understand why he insisted on doing it under Zhen Hua's supervision.

"Your master uncle is a master craftsman who has been dealing with the spirituality of metal for many years. His understanding of the spirit is undoubtedly the most profound on the continent. The soul is also a kind of spirit."

The blacksmith's Spirit Forging awakens the spirit of metal, giving it life; Soul Forging, on the other hand, merges with the metal, giving it a soul to inherit; it is the development of the wisdom of rare metals; and the subsequent Heaven Forging is an evolution of its life level.

Starting with spirit forging, rare metals already possess similar characteristics to soul spirits, corresponding to the level of hundreds or thousands of years. Soul forging corresponds to soul spirits of ten thousand years, while heaven forging signifies elevating soul spirits to the level of one hundred thousand years or even higher.

Zhenhua, with its years of experience in forging expertise, has a very strong voice in this field. This is why Zhenhua itself, Xu Shengqun, and even Mu Ye all wanted Xu Yuan to try things out at Zhenhua.

"Teacher, why don't we just go directly to our senior uncle's place to condense our qi and blood power?" Xu Yuan suggested.

Go directly over there, and then use the remaining medicinal power to go straight to the end and perform the Qi and Blood Contract.

Makino slapped Xu Yuan on the forehead.

"What are you thinking? Do you think your contract can be perfected just by theory? Once you've condensed your Qi and Blood power, you can adjust the contract yourself based on that power."

Xu Yuan grinned.

I feel that what the teacher said makes sense.

Xu Yuan obediently jumped into the wooden tub, feeling the scalding medicinal liquid frantically drilling into his body.

My skin felt burning hot, yet it also felt comfortable.

The medicinal properties penetrate the body through the skin.

"If you don't want to become the muscle man you hate in the future, don't let the effects of the drug linger in your flesh and blood for too long." Makino's gloomy voice echoed in Xu Yuan's mind.

Xu Yuan was startled.

Having muscles is fine, but he doesn't want to be a big guy.

He quickly circulated his soul power and transported the medicinal power, circulating it through his meridians to each acupoint in sequence.

Blood boils.

As the medicinal effects entered his body, Xu Yuan felt as if his blood was on fire, and his heart pounded even more powerfully.

The numerous acupoints given by Mu Ye are located on the chest, centered around the heart. As the medicine takes effect, Xu Yuan's heart is continuously tempered, and the blood flowing through his heart begins to boil.

The blood circulation speed also increases.

The blood in the body surges like a great river rushing through the blood vessels.

This is much better than the weak flow of soul power in the meridians.

Bang bang bang!

Xu Yuan felt the energy in his blood reach its peak.

"Circulate your soul power and gather the energy in your blood," Mu Ye's voice came just in time.

Along with this, Mu Ye kept pointing his fingers, using his powerful soul force to help Xu Yuan compress the energy in his blood.

boom!

In an instant, Xu Yuan felt as if all the energy in his body had been integrated.

At this moment, I felt completely refreshed.

The power of Qi and blood is condensed.

The feeling of clarity was fleeting, yet it shocked Xu Yuan, sending a shiver down his spine and head.

Is this what Qi and Blood cultivation is all about?

In the midst of the shock, Xu Yuan felt a tremendous force coming from the back of his neck, binding him and then suddenly lifting him up.

"I told you not to absorb too much, what are you still spacing out for?" Makino said irritably.

Although he said that, he did not blame her. It was clear that Makino himself knew the shocking feeling of condensing qi and blood at that moment.

It was an indescribable stimulation stemming from an instinct for life.

Xu Yuan was left on the bed.

Without any other thought, he immediately sat down cross-legged.

As his Qi and blood were being refined, he also sensed an opportunity for a breakthrough in his soul power.

He broke through to level eighteen only four months ago. Just one month later, propelled by the advancement of his soul spirit over a thousand years, he broke through to level nineteen. In the following three months, he had already cultivated to the peak of level nineteen.

Soul power is accumulated little by little. At the same level, the accumulation of soul power is divided into early, middle and late stages. Of course, only the concept of peak is meaningful, which means that the current level has reached its peak and is striving to reach the next level.

At this moment, stimulated by the condensation of Qi and blood, the minor bottleneck of level twenty was broken in an instant.

Having broken through to level 20 in soul power, Xu Yuan restrained the Five Elements Spear Spirit and did not add a second soul ring to his martial soul.

With the condensation of Qi and blood, Xu Yuan's physical attributes also underwent a qualitative improvement under the tempering of the medicine. In addition, with the breakthrough of soul power, his mental power also experienced a small burst.

Although there was no test, Xu Yuan felt that he had definitely broken through three hundred.

In addition, his mental strength no longer feels restricted, and it is estimated that his mental strength will improve rapidly in the coming period.

"I wonder if I can break through to the Spirit Sea Realm," Xu Yuan thought with anticipation.

If he can reach the Spirit Sea Realm in a short period of time, then he can fuse his Brain Martial Soul with a Soul Spirit, and his Soul Power cultivation can continue normally.

Most importantly, the Brain Martial Soul will grow even further after being equipped with a Soul Ring, which will greatly enhance Xu Yuan's learning ability and make the learning pressure of Xu Yuan's four secondary professions easier.

Xu Yuan wasn't under pressure to advance from level two to level three, but he knew that when his four secondary professions reached the level four threshold, the pressure on him would be immense. Before that, he would cultivate his Brain Martial Soul, and then he wouldn't need to worry.

Of course, there's one more thing.

Cultivating the brain martial soul for a period of time will also facilitate Xu Yuan's further research and make the creation plan of the blood martial soul smoother.
