"Relax your mind, close your eyes, and contemplate your martial spirit carefully..." In his thatched hut, Gu Ziyi sat cross-legged on the mat, trying to practice.
This is the meditation practice that the village chief taught Gu Ziyi after he came back. This kind of meditation technique is very simple and there is no need to remember meridian points, so Gu Ziyi remembered it as soon as he heard it.
This is also the most widely spread meditation technique in the Douluo Continent, and its popularity rate is very high. To succeed in your cultivation, you must have Spirit power. Otherwise, it will be useless even if you practice!
Gu Ziyi would have to wait three months before he could go to the Junior Spirit Master Academy to study. Naturally, the village chief would not let Gu Ziyi waste these three months, so he immediately taught Gu Ziyi meditation to cultivate his Spirit power.
Buzz——
Soon, Gu Ziyi replayed the scene at the martial Spirit awakening ceremony and saw his own martial Spirit in his consciousness.
However, compared to the talisman that was accompanied by various strange phenomena when the martial Spirit awakened, the martial Spirit in Gu Ziyi's consciousness at this time was just an ordinary talisman.
"What on earth is going on?"
"Could it be that my current martial Spirit is not truly awakened, and I need to undergo a second awakening?"
Gu Ziyi had a vague suspicion in his heart that his martial Spirit shouldn't be so mediocre.
However, Gu Ziyi quickly calmed down and decided that the most important thing for him now was to try to practice.
Feel the martial Spirit, then focus all your attention on it, achieve the unity of man and Spirit, and finally use the martial Spirit to perceive the outside world.
Gu Ziyi didn't know if it was because his Spirit was stronger, but he quickly completed the unity of man and Spirit, and then began to sense the outside world through his martial Spirit.
An inexplicable magical sense was suddenly opened up. Through the martial Spirit, Gu Ziyi sensed the outside world and felt a whole new world.
Through his martial Spirit, he could clearly sense the energy floating around his body. Reaching this step proves that Gu Ziyi can practice.
"Come on, start absorbing this energy!" Gu Ziyi said secretly in his heart and then imagined that his martial Spirit was breathing. The energy that was originally floating around Gu Ziyi's body suddenly began to be slowly absorbed into his body.
This is the most common and simplest meditation method for cultivating Spirit power. By absorbing energy from the outside world, Gu Ziyi could feel that his Spirit power was increasing little by little.
This feeling of constantly increasing Spirit power is very addictive. Gu Ziyi was so absorbed in his practice that he forgot everything else.
It was not until Gu Ziyi felt an inexplicable saturation that he knew that today's training had almost reached his limit.
However, Gu Ziyi did not stop practising but tried to continue practising.
Suddenly, just a few minutes later, Gu Ziyi began to experience a feeling completely opposite to before.
If the previous practice could be described as eating, then every bite would fill my stomach, taste delicious, and bring me a full sense of happiness.
But the practice nowadays is like continuing to eat after being full. The sense of happiness is gone, and only the feeling of being overfed remains. In this case, every bite that continues to be taken seems extremely uncomfortable, and it is getting worse and worse.
Only those who endure the most hardships can become the best.
Gu Ziyi secretly encouraged himself and practiced for about half an hour.
"ah..."
"No…"
Gu Ziyi simply lay down on the mat and completely gave up on continuing his practice.
This kind of saturation practice is really thankless. Not only is it extremely painful, but it also yields half the results with twice the effort, and the absorption rate is getting lower and lower.
"It seems that I haven't practiced for a long time, or the quality of my martial spirit is too low!"
Looking at the sky outside, Gu Ziyi sighed silently.
Buzz——
But when Gu Ziyi summoned his martial Spirit and looked at the talisman that appeared in his palm, he fell into excitement again.
Regardless of his talents, he did possess extraordinary powers.
"Starting tomorrow, we will also begin physical training!"
"The improvement of physical fitness can also speed up the cultivation speed!"
While quietly admiring his own martial Spirit, Gu Ziyi also began to customize a training plan for himself.
So Gu Ziyi spent the next three months in his cultivation. Gu Ziyi knew that he had low talent, so he could only rely on his efforts in cultivation, and he practised meditation situationally every day.
You can hold on as long as you can, Physical training was also incorporated into Gu Ziyi's daily training.
There was no obvious effect at the beginning, but as Gu Ziyi's physique gradually improved through exercise, the effect of practice gradually became apparent.
The speed of cultivation has indeed become a little faster. However, even so, three months later, when Gu Ziyi arrived at the Junior Spirit Master Academy in the town to report, his Spirit power level was still only level 1.
It's quite speechless regarding his practise speed. Gu Ziyi suspected that even if he studied at the Junior Spirit Master Academy for six years and graduated, he might not be able to break through to level 10.
It is no wonder that in the original novel, Tang San and Xiao Wu were able to defeat the entire junior Spirit master academy as soon as they entered Notting College and absorbed a Spirit ring to become a Spirit master. Even the sixth-grade students were no match for them.
Because in the junior Spirit master academy in the small town, not many sixth-grade students can break through level 10 and become a true Spirit master.
The small town that Gu Ziyi came to was called Liusha City, and the junior Spirit master academy that Gu Ziyi joined was also called Liusha Junior Spirit Master Academy, or Liusha Academy for short.
Gu Ziyi entered Liusha College as a work-study student. In addition to studying, he also had to work to earn money.
After arriving at Liusha Academy, Gu Ziyi, in addition to studying and practising, also began to understand the current world of Spirit masters.
The main thing is he wanted to know what period of the original work and the current time point currently going on.
"The current pope of the Spirit Hall is Qian Xunji. It seems that it is still early. Not to mention Tang San, the Blue Silver Emperor may not have transformed into a human form yet!" Through the information he collected, Gu Ziyi quickly determined the approximate time.
The exact number is not clear yet. After all, Liusha City is not a big city. We only know that the current Pope is Qianxunji, and it is not clear whether the current saint is Bibi Dong.
Gu Ziyi only knew that Tang San had not travelled through time at this time. This is undoubtedly a good thing for Gu Ziyi. In this way, Gu Ziyi can seize some of Tang San's opportunities. Especially the fairy grass, one of the biggest plug-ins in Douluo Continent.
It is also what Gu Ziyi needs most because the fairy grass can allow Gu Ziyi's martial Spirit to complete its evolution and improve its quality.
But for now, Gu Ziyi can only think about it. With his current strength, he can't touch the magic grass at all.
Before he had a certain level of strength, Gu Ziyi did not dare to reveal the magic herb. Even if he wanted to cooperate with others, he needed to have a certain level of strength himself.
Otherwise, it would be like seeking the skin of a tiger!
.....…
Five years later.
In the grove behind the Liusha Academy.
"call--"
"Finally broke through to level 10!"
After entering Liusha Academy, it took Gu Ziyi five years to finally break through to level 10.
This speed is incredible considering Gu Ziyi's innate Spirit power level 1 talent. In the entire Liusha Academy, there are currently only two sixth-grade students who have broken through to level 10.
Furthermore, those two students were both at level 3 innate Spirit power, much stronger than Gu Ziyi.
The reason why Gu Ziyi was able to make such a quick breakthrough was all thanks to Gu Ziyi himself, who insisted on saturation training and physical exercise every day.
Of course, in addition to practising, Gu Ziyi also did not neglect the knowledge of martial spirits taught by the academy. As a modern person, Gu Ziyi knows too well the importance of knowledge.
Although Gu Ziyi thought that his vision was much better than that of the people in Douluo Continent.
However, Gu Ziyi still needs to understand more clearly about the knowledge of the martial Spirit. You can't think that you have a comprehensive understanding just based on what you learned from the original book and the anime.
Because Liusha Academy is only a junior Spirit master academy after all, and the knowledge it teaches is limited.
However, as a psychologically mature time traveller, Gu Ziyi would ask the teacher about things that were not taught in class. Whenever he encountered something he didn't understand, Gu Ziyi would ask the teacher for help. If even the teacher doesn't know, then there's nothing Gu Ziyi can do.
Gu Ziyi's bold behaviour also made his classmates give him the nickname "Gu Bold". Fortunately, Gu Ziyi didn't care and continued to do as he pleased.
Therefore, Gu Ziyi is the most special in the eyes of teachers and students of Liusha College. He is not only diligent in his practice, but also eager to learn. A true academic master, a child from another people's family.
In addition, Gu Ziyi is handsome and has a unique temperament, and he has received many love letters from girls since the third grade.
It has to be said that the children in the Douluo Continent also mature relatively early.
"Emmm..." Gu Ziyi remembered that the first time he wrote a love letter to a girl in his previous life was probably in the third grade, and he asked his elder sister who was one year older than him to hand the letter to that girl.
'Well, it's all the same!' But that was all in the previous life. Gu Ziyi naturally didn't plan to fall in love too early in this life.
Like any cultivator manic in CN's novel, 'Girls will only affect the speed of his cultivation' becomes his motto.
"Now I am at level 10, you can try out my ideas!" Gu Ziyi's eyes sparkled with an inexplicable brilliance.
After practising for several years, Gu Ziyi knew his talent for practice very well. If he continued to practice step by step, his achievements would be quite limited.
With his current strength, there is no need for him to even think about getting the immortal grass. So Gu Ziyi decided to find another way. Ever since he started cultivating his Spirit power, Gu Ziyi had a bold idea.
That is to create your Spirit ring!
When watching anime in his previous life, Gu Ziyi felt very strange about the fact that Spirit masters on Douluo Continent had to absorb Spirit rings to break through. Cultivation is one's own business, and breakthroughs should also start from oneself.
How could there be such a weird setting that one must rely on external objects to break through cultivation?
Gu Ziyi is very clear that the cultivation in the Douluo Continent is closely tied to the martial spirit. Tang San could no longer break through after cultivating his Xuantian Gong to the 10th level of Spirit power. He can continue practising only after absorbing the Spirit ring.
Therefore, it is true that cultivation in this world is closely related to the martial Spirit. Without a breakthrough in martial Spirit, there will be no breakthrough in Spirit power level or other skills. The breakthrough of martial Spirit is to add Spirit rings to the martial Spirit.
However, to add spirit rings to a martial spirit, it is not necessary to absorb the spirit rings of spirit beasts!
In Douluo Continent, there is such a thing as condensing spirit rings by oneself.
For example, after a hundred thousand years Spirit beast transforms, one does not need to hunt Spirit beasts until level 60, and can condense Spirit rings on its own.
There is also Tang San's fifth Spirit ring, which was also condensed by the Blue Silver Emperor's Spirit ring awakened by the martial Spirit Blue Silver Grass.
So, why can't Spirit masters find a way to condense their Spirit rings?
