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

Chapter 85 Back on Seagod Island, Yun Ming

Xu Yuan has the added advantage of his Brain Martial Soul, which makes him exceptionally good at learning.

Since the dream space provided by Yao Yao, his learning ability has been further enhanced.

Although he spent a long time thinking, in reality, he used even less time to conduct his research.

The significance of time in reality is still very important.

Being able to complete research and learning in a shorter time in reality enhances Xu Yuan's learning ability.

As he looked at the mecha design drawings in his hand, a part of his mind had already entered the dream space to understand the many details in the design drawings.

Reading comprehension!

Even though Yu Yang had personally explained many details, when Xu Yuan looked at it carefully again, there were still many ingenious aspects. Perhaps they were done casually after becoming proficient, but they were all very meaningful.

This is perhaps the significance of practice.

Without practice, there is no experience in this area from textbooks.

Xu Yuan understood the design in the blueprints and also learned from the experience gained from them.

Back at the academy, I spent my first day at the Mech Pilots Association.

In the dream space, Xu Yuan studied for ten days before he could barely understand the simple parts of the design drawings.

"High-intensity research still requires an optimal time-flow-rate ratio and a scientific time management system," Xu Yuan said, rubbing his dizzy head.

The optimal time flow ratio minimizes the cultivation burden in the dream space, enabling the desired long-term research.

If the actual time is three hours, the optimal flow rate ratio is 24 to 1. Three hours in the outside world corresponds to three days in the dream space.

However, if it were to last for ten hours in reality, the optimal flow rate ratio would be greatly reduced, possibly to only ten to one. Ten hours in the outside world would only amount to four or five days in the dream space at most, which is constrained by the consumption of soul power and mental power.

Xu Yuan wouldn't do this unless he was in a real hurry.

The truly scientific approach is to end the three-hour dream space when your soul power and mental energy are almost depleted, then meditate to recover your soul power and mental energy, practice your soul skills to verify the success in the dream space, and then enter the dream space again after recovering your soul power.

This time, Xu Yuan spent three hours in the dream space, meditating for three hours to quickly recover, and then entered the dream space again. He repeated this cycle three times, exhausting his mental and soul power each time.

The intense mental activity, instead of providing relief through the connection with soul skill verification, caused some dizziness.

"Once the design drawings are thoroughly understood, the subsequent manufacturing process can be well planned."

Xu Yuan also wanted to include the manufacture of this mecha in his future cultivation plans as soon as possible.

"The power of Qi and Blood"

Tang Wulin's qi and blood power still needs to be studied.

"We also need to conduct intensive research over the next couple of days, make a preliminary assessment of the research difficulty, and develop a reasonable plan."

If it's too difficult and there's no hope of results in a short time, then one hour a day is enough.

If there is hope of achieving results in a short period of time, more time can be allocated.

"Brother Yuan, you just got back and you're already rushing to cultivate again." Xu Lizhi said helplessly.

"Stop talking nonsense. Focus on training during this time and condense your Qi and Blood Power as soon as possible." Xu Yuan glanced at the chubby boy. "If you condense it too slowly, don't blame me for helping you."

"Ah? Brother Yuan, no!"

Xu Lizhi never expected that Xu Yuan had summoned him here to urge him to cultivate.

The key is not to urge him to cultivate his soul power, but to urge him to quickly condense his qi and blood.

Is the condensation of Qi and blood really that easy?

For the chubby boy, it was a matter of life and death.

Xu Yuan ignored Xu Lizhi's screams, instructed him to strengthen his training, sent the little fat boy away, and then started to open the soul guide communication.

"Feed?" Makino asked, sounding puzzled.

Didn't we just get vaccinated a few days ago?

"Teacher, are there any suitable instruments or equipment for studying the power of Qi and blood?"

"You want to do research?" Makino's tone rose.

"Having this idea will give me a more thorough understanding of the power of Qi and blood, and will also make the cultivation of Qi and blood easier."

On the other side, Makino snorted coldly.

"Stop doing this research. Qi and blood can't be analyzed by instruments, including soul power and spiritual power. The true nature of energy can only be detected, but cannot be interfered with."

"what?"

Upon hearing Xu Yuan's question, Mu Ye explained in detail.

"The power of Qi and blood is the body's energy unified by willpower when it is in a saturated state. Willpower plays a very important role, which is something that instruments and equipment cannot study. Instruments can only detect energy fluctuations, which are biased towards Qi and blood, but cannot intervene in the condensation of Qi and blood. Do you understand?"

Instruments and equipment can help you gather the energy of qi and blood in your body, but they cannot help you condense the power of qi and blood.

"It's not just blood and qi, but also soul power and spiritual power, all of which contain willpower. Willpower is also very important for soul masters in their cultivation, although in most cases this factor does not need to be considered."

Makino is just providing a simple science explanation.

"Oh, I see, teacher. Do you have any instruments to detect energy fluctuations? Ideally, they would be able to analyze the sources of various energy fluctuations and distinguish between different types of energy."

When Makino heard that they still needed equipment, a black line appeared on his forehead.

However, if we're only distinguishing and detecting different types of energy fluctuations...

"Yes, what do you need this equipment for?"

"To help me observe changes in Qi and blood, which will facilitate the development of cultivation techniques." Seeing that his teacher was pressing him so persistently, Xu Yuan had no choice but to make up a reason.

He could also tell from Makino's words what the other person was worried about.

"I'll try to get you one."

"Teacher, is there a theoretical explanation for this kind of equipment? If there is a theory, then we don't need actual instruments."

A 5-mark symbol appeared on Makino's forehead.

Lao Tzu is a sect of fundamental truth, not a research institute!

"Just wait, I'll figure out a way to get it done for you."

Xu Yuan looked at the disconnected call with a sense of helplessness.

The Body Sect has truly declined.

The teacher said that he was sometimes surprised, but he could tell from the last two sentences that the Body Sect did not have such equipment and technology, and he guessed that the teacher would have to find other ways to get it.

After returning from Donghai City, Xu Yuan stayed at the academy to cultivate.

A year has passed in the blink of an eye.

Poseidon Island.

Xu Yuan stepped onto Seagod Island once more, looking dazed.

Another year has passed, and he has undergone two more assessments.

Six months ago, he selected a thousand-year-old black jade bamboo, which was considered a celestial specimen.

If it can grow to ten thousand or even one hundred thousand years, the Black Jade Divine Bamboo is undoubtedly a divine product. However, the effects of a thousand-year-old Black Jade Divine Bamboo are much weaker, but it is still a top-grade natural treasure, and it takes less time to cultivate.

This time, the college did not give him any options to choose from.

Three days after he received a perfect score in the assessment, Shen Yi notified him to come to Poseidon Island.

As Xu Yuan rowed his small boat to the island alone, he sensed an aura, seemingly deliberately released to guide him.

Following the scent, Xu Yuan bypassed the Sea God Pavilion in the center of Sea God Island and arrived at the back of Sea God Island.

A handsome man looked up at the sky, his back to Xu Yuan, seemingly blending into the surrounding space.

If he hadn't actively released his aura, Xu Yuan definitely wouldn't have sensed it, and might not even have noticed his presence upon arriving here.

Yun Ming turned around and looked at Xu Yuan.

"You're here?"

"Greetings, Pavilion Master!" Xu Yuan clasped his hands in greeting and bowed slightly.

"Hmm, you've learned the first three of the Seven Forbidden Techniques. Show me how you've progressed."

It will be available after midnight, brothers, please subscribe on the first day!

I'll post a more detailed launch message later, guys remember to check it out.
