Chapter 204: Plans for the Great Spirit Arena
🕑 Added 2024-06-27 20:34:09 +0000 UTCHuo Tianyang felt that if he didn't break through to Titled Douluo in a short time, he would completely let down Su Wen's trust in him.
Indeed, that was the case. In sanctuaries like Widsom Palace, the person overseeing the core virtual world, if unable to reach Titled Douluo status, would find it difficult to establish a deterrent force.
In the past, Huo Tianyang might have thought such ideas were impractical. However, now with Su Wen's various techniques being openly shared, he felt that reaching Titled Douluo was not without hope.
Balancing internal and external cultivation not only accelerated the accumulation of Soul Power but also, for a Spirit Master like Huo Tianyang who had practiced for half a lifetime, it was a comprehensive integration—a perfect consolidation for the operation of his own Soul Power.
It's like tidying up after studying, organizing the framework of knowledge.
Actually, Huo Tianyang had his own insights and organization, but compared to Su Wen's integration of Internal Strength, he was lacking by quite a bit.
Su Wen consciously created techniques to integrate his Soul Power circulation, whereas Spirit Masters in Douluo Continent in the past merely used Soul Power circulation routes as convenient ways to practice, albeit effective. After all, a fixed Soul Power circulation is better for maintenance than letting Soul Power dissipate freely.
Therefore, even as a Spirit Douluo, Huo Tianyang's organization was limited to his own abilities and rarely integrated into Soul Power circulation. Similar to Old Jerry back then, who was stuck at level nine for who knows how long, after practicing Su Wen's Internal Strength, he immediately broke through to level ten.
Huo Tianyang might also be able to break through the current bottleneck and reach level 86 with the opportunity provided by introductory techniques.
Combining External Strength and Internal Strength, along with the Spirit Fusion Technique, under multiple overlays, even for a Spirit Douluo, there is an overall three to four times increase in training speed.
In this case, one year would be equivalent to at least three years.
Huo Tianyang feels that achieving one level of advancement per year should be achievable for him.
With this, recalculating his physical condition, he could potentially strive for level 90 before his bodily functions begin to decline.
For Spirit Masters, time has always been crucial.
If one misses the rapid advancement of Soul Power before the ages of thirty and twenty, Spirit Masters can only hope to reach higher realms before their physical condition declines with age.
Otherwise, once the body weakens, although Soul Power does not stop progressing entirely, its efficiency will significantly decrease.
Currently, Su Wen's techniques also present an opportunity for many Spirit Masters in their prime years.
...
After leaving Blazing City, it took Su Wen about three more months to finally complete the opening of the Mountain of Books and Sea of Knowledge in various major cities within the Heaven Dou Empire.
At this moment, his Spiritual Power was constantly under considerable pressure.
"After absorbing the Spirit Ring of the Dark Devilgod Tiger, my Soul Power reached level 62 approaching level 63. Now, half a year later, I have also broken through to level 64."
Half a year for two levels, but the actual situation cannot be simplified like this.
After absorbing the Spirit Ring of the Dark Devilgod Tiger, Su Wen actually broke through to level 63 within a month.
It took him five more months to reach level 64.
As his Soul Power level continued to rise, Su Wen's cultivation speed inevitably began to decline.
However, even so, his cultivation speed far exceeded that of an ordinary Spirit Master.
Based on the cultivation speed of ordinary Spirit Masters, it is considered fast to advance one level every one or two years after reaching Spirit Emperor.
However, Su Wen can advance two levels in one year.
Moreover, this is based on his intentional compression of Soul Power.
"Before reaching level 70, the conditions for Soul Power solidification increase exponentially," Su Wen sighed.
However, he did not think this would delay his Soul Power cultivation.
Identifying and solving problems: if Soul Power cultivation is slow, find the obstacles to its improvement at its essence and then find ways to resolve them.
Previously, Su Wen solved the problem of slow Soul Power cultivation speed from two perspectives: the accumulation period of Soul Power and breakthrough periods of bottlenecks.
Now, he has added a special situation: wasting energy due to compressing Soul Power.
"The Visualized World has the characteristic of condensing Spiritual Power, projecting it onto Soul Power, and also has a condensing effect. However, now the pressure on my Visualized World is too great; I'll have to wait a bit."
Actually, he has already found a solution: using the Visualized World to condense Soul Power continuously. This way, Su Wen's cultivation speed will return to normal, about three levels per year.
However, due to projecting too many Mountains of Books and Sea of Knowledge, the Visualized World is under immense pressure. Therefore, Su Wen can only endure for a while longer.
...
Heaven Dou City.
"Uncle Ning, how is the construction of the Wisdom Palace in Star Luo going?"
Su Wen's most urgent task now is to complete the systematic establishment of the Mountain of Books and Sea of Knowledge and open the virtual world. Only Star Luo Empire is left.
Ning Fengzhi looked at the fatigue in Su Wen's eyes and felt worried.
"Xiaowen, why don't you take a rest for a while?"
Su Wen shook his head and said, "My issue isn't that serious. Even if I rest, it won't make things easier. I can only finish setting up the Mountain of Books and Sea of Knowledge as soon as possible to solve the problem from the root."
Ning Fengzhi understood from Su Wen's words that the Mountain of Books and Sea of Knowledge was putting pressure on him. This was actually normal and expected.
The construction of Wisdom Palaces across the entire continent—how many Wisdom Palaces were there? Hundreds, indeed.
Ning Fengzhi could handle constantly amplifying the abilities of hundreds of Spirit Masters, but to do so continuously was something he couldn't endure.
It was an unimaginable enormous expenditure.
"They're already being urged by the Star Luo Royal Family," he began, briefing Su Wen on the situation in the Star Luo Empire.
"Star Luo Empire is militarily managed, emphasizing strength. Its layout differs from Heaven Dou Empire, with major cities not as dispersed. Setting up the Mountain of Books and Sea of Knowledge there should be easier."
"However, before setting up the Mountain of Books and Sea of Knowledge, you may need to make a trip to the Star Luo Royal Palace."
Ning Fengzhi advised Su Wen to rest first so he could go in full strength. Although the likelihood of Star Luo taking action against Su Wen was minimal, it couldn't be disregarded.
"Well, I'll depart for the Star Luo Empire in a few days," Su Wen nodded.
Changing the subject, he began asking Ning Fengzhi about another matter.
"Uncle Ning, has the contact with Great Spirit Arena been arranged?"
"Don't worry, would you doubt you Uncle Ning in handling things?" Ning Fengzhi sighed.
Before, it was Su Wen asking him to help gather information, but now, as the esteemed head of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, he had become the one handling matters.
"However, why are you contacting Great Spirit Arena? They are quite extraordinary behind the scenes. Even Spirit Hall rarely intervenes in the operations of Great Spirit Arena. Despite having many privileges there, our major sects and Spirit Hall still maintain a restrained relationship with Great Spirit Arena."
The operation of the Great Spirit Arena is independent.
There are various speculations about who supports it behind the scenes on the continent.
Currently, there is a relationship of mutual respect between major powers and the Great Spirit Arena. The Great Spirit Arena provides various privileges to the major powers, while the major powers allow this influential force, spread across the continent, to exist and operate normally.
