Douluo's opening with a bird

Chapter 83 What is cultivation?

When Kong Wanqing finished speaking, the few people sitting in a circle on the grass were silent and seemed to be chewing on what he meant.

It took a long time before Oscar came back to his senses and curiously asked Kong Wanqing: "Teacher Kong, what about the soul ring according to what you said?"

"That's a good question." Kong Wanqing smiled slightly: "Why don't you guys guess together what role the soul ring produced after the death of the soul beast plays in the process of human cultivation."

For an instant, the four children on the grass were stunned.

Neither "cultivation" nor "soul rings" are unfamiliar to them, but these things are too common, as common as rice.

They have always only needed to know that eating rice can fill their stomachs and know how to eat rice. They do not need to know how rice grows from seedlings to rice.

In the same way, they only need to know how to meditate and practice, and how to become stronger link by link, without having to think about where these things come from.

So this time they meditated for a particularly long time.

But Kong Wanqing didn't urge him at all, and watched patiently as they pulled out his hair one by one.

……

Finally, Dai Mubai, who had an open mind, broke the silence under the shade of the tree: "Teacher Kong, could it be because our bodies can only withstand level ten soul power at first? If we want to continue to become stronger, we must use soul beasts." Soul rings to expand the upper limit of accommodation?"

"It's hard to say that this statement is wrong, but there is one thing I need to correct." This time, Kong Wanqing's eyes were even more approving: "The human body is not only able to withstand tenth level soul power. On the contrary, The potential of the human body is extremely huge and has almost unlimited possibilities.

Developing one's own potential and meditating to cultivate soul power can also make people stronger, but it is simpler and more intuitive to obtain soul power through meditation, so few people go to develop their own potential in depth.

Regarding one's own potential, I will talk about it in detail later when I talk about meridians. Let's talk about the soul ring first.

When one's own potential has not been fully developed, the amount of soul power that can be stored in the Dantian is limited. There are only two ways to store more soul power.

One is to expand the Dantian, and the other is to continuously condense and compress the existing soul power.

The simplest way to expand the upper limit of soul power is to hunt soul beasts and attach the soul rings obtained by the soul beasts to themselves, thereby continuing to become stronger.

For soul beasts, the soul ring is the soul power accumulated by absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon. The only difference is that human soul power is stored in the lower abdominal dantian, and mental power is stored separately in the Niwan Palace between the eyebrows.

The soul ring of a soul beast is the product of the fusion of spirit and soul power. This is why soul beasts of the same level are usually more powerful than humans.

It is precisely because the soul ring condenses the spirit and soul power of the soul beast that humans can advance to the next stage with the help of the power of the soul ring after obtaining the soul ring. "

After hearing this, the eyes of three of the four children gradually lost their light. Only the eldest Dai Mubai could still keep up and did not look like he was listening to a book from heaven.

So Kong Wanqing paused for a moment and changed to a simpler example: "The human body is like the bottle in my hand. It can only hold so much water. If you want to continue to hold water, you can still hold it in." ?"

Kong Wanqing raised his hand to condense a bottle with ice, and then drew a stream of water. Soon the ice bottle was filled with water, and the overflowing water flowed along the mouth of the bottle onto the grass.

Zhu Zhuqing tilted his head: "So when we hunt soul beasts and obtain soul rings, we are replacing the small bottle with a bigger bottle?"

"Yes." Kong Wanqing nodded and waved his hand to conjure another identical ice bottle: "But in fact, our cultivation cannot only depend on the level of soul power. The quality of soul power can also determine the strength of strength.

For example, I have two bottles of water with the same amount of water. You can try to see who is heavier. "

Ma Hongjun glanced at Kong Wanqing, and after receiving permission, he reached out and lifted the bottle on the left, and then lifted the bottle on the right: "Hmm...the same weight?"

Kong Wanqing nodded, reached out and tapped the bottle on the right: "Try again."

This time, Ma Hongjun clearly felt it was difficult when he used his previous strength to lift the bottle, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Eh? What's going on?"

Oscar touched his chin, and a small bright light bulb popped up on his head: "Oh! I understand! Teacher Kong, this is the degree of concentration of soul power, right?!"

Kong Wanqing nodded: "The bottle on the left is ordinary water, and the water in the bottle on the right has been drained of air. So although the two bottles of water seem to have the same amount, the one on the right is heavier.

In the same way, the same is true for the soul power stored in our bodies. At the same level, a soul master who has repeatedly condensed soul power will be more powerful than other ordinary soul masters.

When the degree of concentration of soul power reaches a certain peak, it is even possible to fight across levels.

Of course, there are more conditions that need to be met. "

Having said this, Kong Wanqing picked up a leaf on the ground, with a little snow-white light shining on his fingertips, and then threw it out with his fingers, drawing a fleeting silver light in the air: "Take me as an example, I My soul power level is not very high, but I can often win overwhelmingly when fighting other teachers because my soul power is more concentrated and my skills in using power are more sophisticated."

"Squeak—boom!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the big tree not far away let out a long wailing sound, and then fell to the ground with a crash, and the fracture was extremely smooth.

The four children stared blankly at the fallen tree, forgetting even their exclamations for a moment.

"hiss--"

After a while, the sounds of gasping could be heard in the woods one after another.

Dai Mubai manually closed his chin and exclaimed: "What an incredible power..."

Yunhe, who had been listening silently, suddenly spoke up and corrected Dai Mubai: "It's not about strength, it's about skill."

Oscar came back to his senses and looked at Yunhe in confusion: "Technique?"

Yun He nodded: "If you don't believe me, you can try it yourself with leaves. Instilling soul power is not a problem for you."

Several people looked at each other blankly, then doubtfully picked up a leaf and held it in their hands, then poured soul power into the leaf. Unfortunately, the leaves in their hands were too fragile and could not withstand even the soul power of a great soul master. It shattered into pieces with a "pop" sound.

——It can't even do the simplest infusion of soul power, let alone use it to attack.

After seeing that everyone failed, Kong Wanqing explained: "What you are trying now is precise control of soul power. I will teach you in class later."

Hearing what Kong Wanqing said, the four children reluctantly put down the broken leaves in their hands.

Kong Wanqing glanced at the sky: "Our first class is about to end. Now I will give you some time to review and think. I will get someone up to answer my questions in one minute."

Yunhe, who was sitting next to Kong Wanqing, suddenly became excited when he heard the word "question" and subconsciously moved his buttocks until he was two or three meters away before stopping.

However, Kong Wanqing didn't even look at him. He waited quietly for a minute and looked at Dai Mubai: "What is cultivation?"

Dai Mubai, who was called upon, did not disappoint Kong Wanqing. After a moment of thought, he came up with the answer: "'Cultivation' is the process of continuously increasing soul power and spirit. It is cultivation of the mind and practice."

Kong Wanqing nodded and looked at Oscar: "How to cultivate soul power?"

Oscar immediately replied: "Absorb soul power through meditation and then condense and store it! After reaching the critical point, obtain a soul ring to expand the storage limit of soul power!"
