Douluo Continent: The Martial Soul is actually Bibi Dong.

Chapter 12 Self-created Cultivation Technique

First, Su Mo carefully reviewed the cultivation system of Douluo Continent.

As a result, Su Mo soon discovered that the Soul Masters here cultivated their Soul Power by absorbing energy through their Martial Souls.

Whether it's the most basic publicly available soul power cultivation technique or a more advanced one, both involve absorbing external energy through the martial soul and then converting it into one's own soul power.

Therefore, a person's bloodline and the quality of their martial spirit represent their talent.

But what if a person doesn't use a martial spirit? What if they directly absorb external energy through their body?

"It definitely can!"

"Tang San could cultivate the Mysterious Heaven Skill even before he awakened his martial soul; it's just that due to the rules of this world, he couldn't break through before awakening his martial soul!"

In the original story, Tang San always used his Mysterious Heaven Skill to cultivate his soul power. Not only could he cultivate his soul power, but he could also recover his soul power during battle, making it virtually inexhaustible!

Thinking of this, Su Mo became excited.

If Tang San can do it, then others certainly can too.

After the initial excitement, Su Mo quickly fell silent again.

Because he simply doesn't have an internal energy cultivation method like the Xuan Tian Gong!

Su Mo scratched his head in frustration. He had clearly come up with a solution, but he was troubled by the lack of an internal energy cultivation method.

Su Mo also wanted to learn from the protagonists of other novels and create his own cultivation method, but it wasn't that easy.

Because he had practiced martial arts, Su Mo knew exactly how fragile the human body was; one wrong move and it could be crippled.

Frustrated, Su Mo scratched his head again.

After an unknown amount of time, Su Mo's eyes suddenly lit up.

Su Mo has come up with another solution.

Su Mo sat cross-legged and began to cultivate his soul power cultivation technique.

This time, however, Su Mo did not summon his martial soul out of his body to cultivate; instead, he began cultivating directly.

This method of cultivating one's martial spirit directly within the body was originally used by soul masters of higher levels who had mastered soul power cultivation techniques more skillfully.

For Soul Masters who are not yet proficient in cultivation, the physical body becomes an obstacle when they place their Martial Soul within their body for cultivation.

Although absorption is still possible, the efficiency is slower.

After Su Mo began cultivating in this way, he indeed found that the speed at which he absorbed external energy had slowed down. External energy had to enter Su Mo's physical body first before being absorbed by his martial soul.

However, Su Mo did not look frustrated, because he did not care at all about the slowdown in his cultivation efficiency.

Instead, Su Mo began to focus entirely on the process of external energy entering his body and then reaching his martial soul.

This is the natural route for absorbing external energy!

Su Mo was powerless to stop haphazardly creating his own internal energy cultivation method, nor did he dare to act recklessly. However, he was still willing to try this natural approach.

After all, the process of cultivating the original soul power cultivation technique has already proven that these routes are not dangerous!

From that day on, Su Mo began to cultivate his martial spirit within his body, much like trying to run before he could walk.

Although it took several times longer each day to achieve the same results, Su Mo was still very happy to do it.

Su Mo familiarizes himself with the process of external energy entering his body every day, and also begins to try to absorb external energy directly using the human body without using his martial soul.

The human body has limitless potential!

Su Mo didn't know if this kind of story from some novels in her past life was true, but she hoped it was.

In this way, he can directly break free from the talent limitations of his martial soul when it comes to cultivating soul power.

Is it because of a low-quality martial soul that cultivation is slow?

Then I'll just skip martial spirit cultivation altogether!

Regardless of whether Su Mo will ultimately succeed, only Su Mo could come up with such a method to break the established notions of Soul Masters in the Douluo Continent.

It may seem like a simple change, but in a world where everything revolves around martial spirits, no one else would even consider it.

……

"What the hell is that damn brat doing?"

Although Bibi Dong, who resides within Su Mo's martial soul space, has not appeared and the outside world is not entirely clear about what Su Mo is doing, she is still aware of the changes in Su Mo's cultivation.

She knew perfectly well that Su Mo had changed his cultivation method, which had greatly reduced his cultivation efficiency.

In Bibi Dong's view, this approach was simply a waste of time.

Switching from external to internal cultivation before reaching a certain level simply increases the difficulty of one's cultivation.

Bibi Dong couldn't stand this kind of time-wasting behavior.

Despite her anger, Bibi Dong did not go out to correct Su Mo's mistake.

She's still angry about what happened that day!

No one had ever dared to disobey her like that before.

So after realizing that Su Mo was wasting time, she let Su Mo do as he pleased.

Even if Su Mo spends more time, he can still reach the maximum improvement limit every day.

Moreover, Bibi Dong also realized that even if Su Mo didn't become Yu Xiaogang's apprentice, he would still have to go to Notting Academy to study after a while.

As long as Su Mo attends Notting College, she can still be with Yu Xiaogang.

That's why Bibi Dong didn't continue to persuade Su Mo to become Yu Xiaogang's apprentice.

However, Bibi Dong still had some doubts, because in her opinion, Su Mo was not a brat who liked to waste time.

Sure enough, in the following time, Bibi Dong discovered that Su Mo seemed to be trying a new cultivation method.

"They actually forgo their martial spirit and directly absorb external energy through their bodies for cultivation?"

"How could this possibly succeed!"

Upon discovering Su Mo's innovative idea, Bibi Dong's first reaction was that it was impossible for it to succeed.

Even though she had already become a god, her first thought was that Su Mo was messing around. Cultivating soul power definitely requires a martial soul!

"This kid is planning to find a way to break through his talent limitations on his own!"

At the same time, Bibi Dong also learned what Su Mo had been doing all this time.

To be honest, she admired Su Mo's courage to try this herself.

She could already foresee Su Mo's fate. Even she and Yu Xiaogang had spent so much time back then and still couldn't find a solution, so she didn't believe Su Mo could succeed.

Although Su Mo's method was novel, she was also certain that Su Mo could not succeed.

However, Bibi Dong still did not intend to remind Su Mo.

"He needs to suffer a blow so he'll realize the harshness of reality!"

"Besides Xiao Gang, no one else has been able to find a way to break through the limitations of their talent!"

Thinking this, Bibi Dong was somewhat looking forward to seeing Su Mo's dejected expression.

If she comes out and comforts Su Mo then, Su Mo should be able to listen to her a little better.
