Su Yu dared not cultivate recklessly.
He left the booklet of the Intermediate Meditation Technique in the Storage Ring.
After cleaning the battlefield again and confirming there were no issues, Su Yu set off.
Holding the map he had scavenged from the Evil Soul Master, he compared it and headed towards the nearest town.
Wangyue City.
This is a second-level small city in the southeastern direction of the Xingluo Empire.
The city's scale is quite large, it even has a Soul Beast Forest officially reared for Soul Masters to obtain Soul Rings.
Of course, to enter this Soul Beast Forest to hunt Soul Beasts, one must pay a high entrance fee.
On the way, Su Yu changed clothes in a small village and cleaned himself up, arriving at the city gate, feeling quite emotional.
"The fantasy world is indeed different; a city gate so magnificent."
The scale, the grandeur.
I really wonder what Shrek City, where Shrek Academy is based, is like. And that supposedly most advanced and developed capital of the Sun and Moon Empire, Mingdu, what kind of scenery does it offer?
"First, find a place to stay."
Su Yu found a detached courtyard, paid a month's fee, a total of five Silver Soul Coins.
Normally, from a safety perspective, a six-year-old child shouldn't be looking for a place to live alone.
However, developing the Art of Lifespring Cuttings meant that Su Yu had at least minimal self-protection ability.
This also allowed him to act a bit more freely.
The Lifespring Cuttings that killed the Evil Soul Master was a coincidence, achieved under multiple factors.
Under normal circumstances, encountering a Grand Soul Master, Su Yu definitely couldn't beat them. But against a Soul Master with only one Soul Skill, Su Yu was still confident.
The only disadvantage is that his Soul Power might be a bit low, not good for sustaining activities.
But the Art of Lifespring Cuttings is all about instant kill, seize the right moment, activate the Soul Skill, it can result in a lethal strike.
"Find a way to recognize characters."
This is the second important thing.
As for handling identity certificates or such.
Once there's cultivation in the future, what's hard to handle?
A Three-Ring Soul Venerable arriving at a small city can easily get it processed.
Therefore, Su Yu doesn't worry about this at all.
Generally, such identity certificates are not needed.
Su Yu has no intention of going to any Soul Master Academy, nor of buying a house. Such identity certificates are fundamentally meaningless.
As for Shrek Academy.
As long as you have enough Talent, nothing is a problem.
"Although I don't agree with many of Shrek's philosophies, I have to admit that their educational resources are indeed the highest in the continent."
Su Yu was referring not to teacher resources but more to cultivation techniques, cultivation experiences, and various knowledge-based resources.
He clearly understands his situation.
Unparalleled perception, this is his greatest advantage, and also the foundation for his future rise. To maximize this, rich knowledge is essential.
An empty mind makes it inconvenient to develop anything.
The Art of Lifespring Cuttings was a Soul Skill developed by Su Yu only in a state of enlightenment, and even this Soul Skill itself is actually not perfect.
Self-created Soul Skills are a summary of one's Soul Power operations, thus mastering an attack method.
It's necessary to gradually improve it to keep up with Soul Master's steps and continue to be effective.
Just like absorbing different levels of Soul Rings.
With the same Soul Power consumption, Centennial Soul Ring's Soul Skill is incomparable to Millennium, Ten Thousand Years Soul Ring Soul Skills.
This is the essence difference in Soul Skills.
Self-created Soul Skills definitely require you to gradually perfect them.
The Lifespring Cuttings Su Yu developed now, in terms of Soul Skill essence, probably only provides a Soul Skill of a Centennial Soul Ring.
"All these can be dealt with later, first learn to recognize characters, learn the Meditation Technique."
Su Yu spent half a day in the city to find a teacher, spent one Golden Soul Coin, and hired him to teach.
With such a high reward, the teacher agreed without a second thought, following Su Yu home to start teaching. Since Su Yu only wanted to recognize characters, coupled with his unparalleled perception, he learned quickly.
The teacher didn't bring enough textbooks on the first day, taught for half a day, passed on all knowledge, and hurried home. Three days later, the teacher left feeling amazed.
Earning one Golden Soul Coin in three days, he walked with a spring in his step.
Su Yu sent the teacher off, closed the door, took out the Intermediate Meditation Technique. He didn't learn all the vocabulary and sentence formation but only the most basic character recognition, the most common characters.
Learning these, along with a dictionary, was enough.
Cross-referencing the dictionary, Su Yu bit by bit understood the descriptions in the Intermediate Meditation Technique.
"What the heck, how is this any different from what I guessed?"
Su Yu directly threw the dictionary in his hand, cursing loudly.
"Damn, it's not that I overestimated myself, but that I overestimated this Meditation Technique?"
The low fantasy combat power of Douluo Continent has its reasons.
"Damn it, just perceive the Martial Soul within, then meditate to capture Primordial Energy from heavens and earth, use the Martial Soul to convert it into one's own Soul Power?"
The so-called Intermediate Meditation Technique is just some simple technique differences in the process of meditation?
Su Yu was speechless.
"Since that's the case, I can only experience it myself."
He sat cross-legged, emptied his mind.
As he tried, Su Yu found that this Meditation Technique wasn't without benefits. At least, the techniques in the meditation process for entering a settled state were quite effective; they quickly avoided unnecessary thoughts and made it easier to concentrate.
Su Yu soon perceived the presence of his Martial Soul, activating it, sensing the Primordial Energy between heaven and earth.
"This sensing of Primordial Energy does have some usefulness."
"This refinement of Primordial Energy is also useful."
After experiencing it once, Su Yu opened his eyes and began to summarize the effects of the Intermediate Meditation Technique.
"Overall, its auxiliary function is really good."
However, this Meditation Technique is only auxiliary.
"The only aspect affecting the speed of cultivating Soul Power is the technique for refining Primordial Energy into Soul Power, which probably will significantly weaken once reaching Grand Soul Master."
By then, it may simply rely on one's own cultivation.
To this, Su Yu can only feel speechless.
No wonder it's called Meditation Technique.
However, above Intermediate Meditation Technique, there is Advanced Meditation Technique.
Further up, there must be more special cultivation techniques.
Meditation techniques might have been created merely for the convenience of meditation.
During cultivation, there are many techniques for operating Soul Power. These might be the key to improving cultivation speed.
Su Yu remembered, ten thousand years ago in that era, some great master seemed to summarize a series of routes for Soul Power operations, supposedly significantly accelerating Soul Power cultivation.
Shows Douluo Continent still has techniques reminiscent of internal skills, through Soul Power operating within the body's meridians along specific routes to achieve effects.
However, it didn't achieve the status of a system.
As for why, despite the fact that someone summarized operational routes ten thousand years ago, and still no one truly created a internal power-like Dharma Gate in ten thousand years, Su Yu chose not to delve into it.
