Blood Cores

Chapter 44 — Blood Cores.

After completing the blood circuits, I felt my spiritual power and soul blood reducing by a lot. In return, the blood circuits paved the way to efficiently control my soul blood. It even managed to reach deep down into my very cells.

And even if the size of my blood vessels reach the limit, there was now an internal space that would indefinitely grow to accommodate a greater output of purple blood or soul blood. An output that could indefinitely grow higher as long as the internal space grows.

Its formation was based on the soul circuits and Reinforced Circulatory System, so the blood circuits can also be called Enhanced Circulatory System. If coupled with the spirit heart's Reinforced Circulatory System and Steel Hardening, I knew my body would become as tough as hell.

This further improved the overall tolerance and resistance of my brain and body—a good improvement that would extend my duration when I enter the World Of Movement and use Supercharge.

The high tolerance and large internal space also allowed me to quickly use and endure a large amount of instantaneous bursts of berserk power at any point of the body without needing to carefully gather them to avoid exploding my blood vessels.

I now didn't have to worry about the hot explosive waves and cold explosive waves that traveled violently across my blood vessels.

At the same time, I could feel my blood circuits naturally connecting to the energy streams of the atmosphere.

After checking it out, I realized my perfectly energy attuned blood circuits allowed my recovery speed and conversion rate of natural energy to reach a new height.

The blood flow was also extremely smooth and a few times faster than before without harming my body.

The changes were positives.

I knew my blood circuits were inherently similar to energy channels, but it still carried more potential than energy channels due to its abilities to evolve, grow, and undergo changes.

Alas the blood circuits were still incomplete without the Blood Cores.

However, the blood circuits were now the perfect vessel to construct the Blood Cores.

There was no need to worry.

The creation of Blood Cores was a matter of time.

If I managed to successfully create the Blood Cores, I knew the blood circuits would completely transform to help me efficiently control the soul blood and even my physical body.

Once that happened, I would be able to do things I couldn't before.

I planned for the Blood Cores to appear in 13 and 360 different locations of the physical body—the original locations of meridians and acupoints.

I then chose thirty-six spots that I thought were the most important and compressed the special semi-physical substance in those areas inside the blood circuits so that they wouldn't come loose.

As I patiently created the thirty-six Blood Cores, I gradually saw various small crimson cores sprouting inside the Blood Circuit's Internal space.

The thirty-six small Blood Cores were still immature, so I needed to nourish them until they matured enough to act like meridians and acupoints.

The maturation of the Blood Cores took a whole month to succeed perfectly.

Nai An was always reading and studying books everyday, but his behavior recently changed.

Did he enter a closed-door training?

Shi Yeng couldn't resist her curiosity, so she went to visit his room.

A moment later, as she entered Nai An's room, Shi Yeng felt something unusual happening.

Whoosh!

She saw Nai An sitting cross-legged on the bed while immersed in a mysterious tranced state, the atmosphere around him growing heavy and suffocating.

The thirty-six Blood Cores were completely matured enough to function as meridians and acupoints. The soul blood in the Blood Circuit decreased many times, but its efficiency had multiplied drastically compared to the past.

Nai An was now able to develop a sense of control over the soul blood by using his Blood Cores. As long as he practiced enough, whatever had been impossible now would soon become possible. He even managed to clearly sense the entire blood circuits within his body, some were so small that he wouldn't notice them if he didn't concentrate.

A hot wind spread out from Nai An, whipping around and making a shocked Shi Yeng jump back from surprise.

Whenever the hot wind passed, the air seemed to grow sticky and heavy, and the entire room was dyed with blood-red flames that grew around me, the eerie and dense pressure pushing her down.

This was Nai An's extremely focused and condensed soul blood fluctuations.

Shi Yeng could see his silhouette inside the blood-red flames as though he were an ancient devil wearing an armor of fire and blood that was formed by the dense amount of mystical crimson lines across his skin.

Unbeknownst to her, Nai An used the Treasured Vortex Method along with other cultivation methods and soul circuits manuals to finally create his own Cultivation Method.

It was a great show of powerful fluctuation, and she was tongue-tied at the sight.

Shi Yeng's eyes were trembling.

"How inefficient was this brat's soul power before? And even though it was so inefficient, he was still so powerful. How much stronger has he gotten now with his creation…?"

Shi Yeng felt her emotions boiling intensely with madness and euphoria.

Every requirement was met.

"Ah, Nai An… Only your existence can possibly succeed with it…"

A distorted twisted smile crept over her face.

The Blood Cores were now perfectly matured.

At this moment, I'm sure the Blood Circuit was completed.

Its current efficiency had multiplied so much that my old circulatory system couldn't even remotely compare.

As for creating more Blood Cores, I decided to continue gradually as my rank would drop if I consumed too much soul blood.

The creation of the Blood Cores was a slow and steady process.

I then examined my Blood Circuit and Blood Cores.

There were two types of Blood Cores: Major Blood Cores(Meridians) and Minor Blood Cores(Acupoints).

After closely observing them, I realized it brought more benefits than expected.

The Blood Cores were new organs inside my blood circuits.

The Blood Cores were able to constantly amplify the circulating soul blood. They did the same towards my normal purple blood which doubled my explosive power and raging energy, as well as the abundant life force energy within my blood.

The cores even acted as small storage units to store soul blood by having small apertures that would slowly grow larger as I got stronger.

Even without my spirit heart, I could now use a limited amount of soul blood until the storage units ran out. Instead of storage units, it would be better to call them as battery units.

As I gained control over my soul blood, I began to feel a sense of internal freedom.

Along with higher output from the blood circuits, I should be able to display a far greater enhancement that was also refined and flexible.

It should also display on my soul blood clouds.

At this moment, I was only able to control major areas of my blood vessels that grant me control, but if I accessed all of them I would have perfect control over my entire circulatory system and Spirit Heart!

It would bring a qualitative enhancement.

The cores were also capable of smoothly controlling my blood flow. It worked well with Supercharge which I activated by forcefully pumping my blood flow that often results in damage.

Now that I created the Blood Circuit and Blood Cores, I can now experiment with the cultivation method I've envisioned.

My unique cultivation method that I've devised from my deep comprehension over the Treasured Vortex Method and other various cultivation methods.

However, I still couldn't find a way to create a circulation method that could both refine and widen the spirit heart.

Although the cultivation technique was completed, it still couldn't solve the underlying problem of requiring two methods to advance.

I need to create an advanced cultivation method to accomplish both methods at the same time.

A cultivation method only suitable for someone like me.

An innovation that will reverse everyone's understanding of cultivation.

Ah.

Reverse…?

"I see… Reverse…"

I was enlightened.

A path was blazed before me. I once read a book about a certain Titled Douluo when I was gathering information about Shrek Academy.

That certain Titled Douluo with a Scarlet Dragon Martial Soul was capable of reversing the flow of his blood essence to use his secret technique.

The blood essence was able to travel between blood vessels and energy channels, but I only have soul blood and blood circuits.

I decided to incorporate the reverse blood flow into my unique cultivation method by literally reversing my own blood flow.

It was common knowledge to ordinary people that reversing the flow of blood was extremely lethal to the heart and the body.

My blood normally cycles throughout my body as naturally as a river.

The normal blood circulation was the best way to circulate the blood because it was born from innumerable years of evolution.

This was the most compatible circulation method, so I didn't need to change too much to make the blood flow extremely efficient.

Then what should I do?

Reverse.

I'll just circulate my blood flow in the reverse direction…!

Using the Blood Cores as conduits, I started to reverse my blood flow with the help of my spirit heart.

Since my spirit heart was now pumping blood in reverse, I immediately felt an extremely excruciating tearing sensation spreading from the inside of my body.

I felt like my entire body was being split apart into countless small pieces by a high-speed blender.

My breathings also turned so shallow and tight that the action of breathing itself brought excruciating pain that jolted madly throughout my countless cells.

The pain was really evident and unpleasant, but I could feel my body gradually adapting to the reverse circulation method, making me think it was just unused to the sudden change of my blood flow.

A moment later, I was soon able to witness improvements happening.

I could feel various energies starting to refine and widen my spirit heart.

Then using the Blood Cores, I started to speed up the reverse blood flow throughout my body. It was simply a deadly torture, so I didn't entered into a Supercharged State.

As my reverse blood flow cycled extremely fast, I felt extremely heat accompanied by burning pain arising from my countless crying cells that got rapidly destroyed and regenerated by various energy and my powerful regeneration speed.

After feeling my body slowly being refined, I focused on creating a large vortex according to the Treasured Vortex Method.

But instead of my dantian, I created a reverse large vortex inside my spirit heart that got further twisted painfully.

I completely focused on recreating a violent vortex using some of my Blood Cores within the spirit heart.

After a few minutes, I managed to create a vague large crimson reverse vortex that crazily gathered natural energies from the atmosphere into my Spirit Heart.

Although the vortex was spinning in a reverse direction, I saw it seemed to have the same effects as normal vortexes that significantly increased my gathering and absorption speed.

As I only have thirty-six Blood Cores, I still couldn't live up to the true potential of the Treasured Vortex Method, but that was only for the efficiency of control.

At this moment, I suddenly felt an unfamiliar sludgy sensation that seemed to get absorbed by the reverse vortex. Or was it? It was so sludgy and strange that it felt like a sludge of darkness, making my head feel heavy and dizzy when I saw and felt it.

The slimy darkness disappeared upon entering my chest, but I couldn't feel anything strange happening, as if it was just my imagination.

But my attention was soon caught by the Blood Cores.

I realized there were more unexpected things from the cores. The Blood Cores were now rotating to amplify the gathering force of the large reversed vortex, forming into thirty-six tiny reverse vortexes throughout my body.

As a result, I felt my cultivation speed increasing even more with the help of tiny reverse vortexes.

This applied to my recovery speed.

Success!

Flash!

When I opened my eyes again, a sharp beam of light split my surroundings, and the hot wind turned more turbid.

An extremely dense blood avatar with flickering crimson stars throughout its body appeared behind me, causing extremely powerful soul blood fluctuations to descend.

I then saw Shi Yeng looking at me with a strange expression.

After I calmed down, I pulled in my powerful concentrated aura.

"Hmm, it seems you succeeded with your own cultivation method." Shi Yeng said with strange light flickering within her smiling eyes.

"Yes, it took quite a while." I nodded.

"It's already impressive to devise your own method in just several months." Shi Yeng smacked her lips. "It's fortunate you entered the Trance State."

I narrowed my eyes.

I knew Trance State was one of the stages of enlightenment.

"No wonder things went so smoothly." I replied.

"You want to try out your new cultivation method?" Shi Yeng asked with an excited expression.

I shook my head.

"I'm really hungry. Is there anything to eat?"

Grumble!

My stomach caused her expression to become normal.

As for why I felt hunger, It was because of my body getting slightly stronger overall.

"My unique cultivation method can also cultivate the body…"

It was even more precious than I first thought.

As for its name…

I've already thought of it.
