Chapter 3: Groundwork

With that said I need to grow up safely not to mention fully awaken the characteristics of my martial soul activating life is pretty easy thanks to my first soul skill and the ancient golden tree so it is something I can do in the future for now my main focus is reaching level 30 

My current cultivation technique is a castrated technique which won't do so modifying it to be more suitable for myself isn't a big problem as there is a pretty good reason why mediation is the primary cultivation method as each martial soul provides the soul master a soul power circulation method which is relatively complete especially for top martial souls so it part of the reason why basic cultivation theories are rather lacking as there never been a need to actively research them given the the convenience the soul master system provides and how hard it is to create a universal cultivation technique as your martial soul provides them sure there is a huge gap in quality and comprehensiveness depending on the martial soul and there is only a need to further optimize it when you become titled douluo to make a soul master more compatible with soul power and drive the growth of the martial soul but this is based on the premise there is no serious defect in your martial soul that hinders it to reach certain ranks in cultivation like seven treasures pagoda as most flaws in martial souls are only flaws and without solution because of lack of understanding and knowledge

In this world, there are two systems for running soul power in the human body they are the gears the drive the growth of the soul master cultivation system

These two operating systems complement each other and can jointly promote the continuous improvement of a soul master's realm. If there is a conflict between the two, it will affect the progress of mankind.

The first is the meridian circulation system in the human body and the second is the soul power operation system inside the martial soul itself that is used to maintain the growth of the martial soul and is not directly controlled by the soul master.

The method of cultivating soul power that the martial soul passes on to the soul master is nothing more than the martial soul itself starting to operate, forcibly driving the innate soul power to operate in the human body, thereby constructing a gear that is compatible with the martial soul's gear.

The martial soul can influence a person's character, which is reflected very clearly in the original novel. This is because the soul masters in this world are actively led by the martial soul from the beginning of their cultivation. Even if the soul masters take control of the initiative in the future, the influence they received in their childhood is deeply rooted.

It is for this reason that those without innate soul power can't cultivate and why Tang San can cultivate before awakening his martial soul and driving the martial soul in reverse.

The martial soul itself also has a set of unique soul power circulation paths which without a doubt more suitable but only those with top quality martial souls can truly take advantage of it so supplementing it is the way for without top martial souls and with serious martial soul defects to reach the top 

Two gears that fit together and move together?

An ideal combination of the two can propel the soul master to great heights 

Because Xuantian Gong is a Taoist practice, the soul power attribute cultivated by it is neutral and peaceful, and can match almost any martial soul.

If the soul power operation system of the martial soul itself is compared to a pre-formed gear, then the Xuantian Gong is a gear that can be polished and processed later.

So it is the ideal candidate use as the main body and the one from my martial soul as the supplement changing my neutral soul power to life attribute speeding up my cultivation

I need to resolve attribute conflicts after all so using life attribute as the main carrier although the five elements is a part of Taoism having an insurance won't hurt and make me more suitable for my path

The soul masters in this world cultivate their soul power by relying on their martial souls, which means that every soul master cultivates their soul power in a different way.

Even if they are the same martial soul, the difference in quality will lead to differences in the details of operating soul power.

Every soul master's martial soul is different, which leads to different properties of the soul power cultivated by the soul master due to soul ring combination although it isn't big enough in the same martial soul

I am quite lucky to have something as a framework as almost no soul master would change their meditation method as unless they have really reached a bottleneck and can no longer break through, they will try to find a soul master whose martial soul is similar to their own and of higher quality than their own, and seek the other party's soul power cultivation method for reference.

My reason for doing so is that I can't cultivate fast enough and my martial soul quality isn't high so every advantage counts and further improve the efficiency of improving soul power not to mention a complete technique suitable for oneself is always welcome and improve my chances of improving my martial soul as soul power is the main energy that drives it growth as although soul ring can indeed affect the growth of martial soul they are more of a supplement unless they are of exceptional quality which is more noticeable after one becomes a titled douluo 

After level ninety-five, each level up requires not only the accumulation of soul power, but also the understanding of the martial soul.

Since everyone's martial spirit is different, their perceptions are also different.

But in essence, it is indeed about constantly considering the subtleties of the operation of soul power in the human body, so as to make it better, faster and more perfect compatible with the martial soul and promote the growth of the martial soul.

What I am doing now is just making the ground work smoother a soul ring may add talents to a martial soul but they are just that soul power is the key of turning talent into strength so that when the time comes I won't be helpless my cultivation technique won't be static based on the principle what isn't yours will never belong to you only what is yours can never be stolen

Not to mention after reaching a certain point of cultivation you need to walk your own path techniques can serve as guideline not the truth as I don't have as much understanding of Xuantian Gong as its creator not to mention what I have is a castrated version so I can only supplement it as best as I can to create the most suitable technique for me to move forward and create my own path

It is at this moment the journey of Tang Ya who will become known as the Blue Silver Princess truly begin
