Chapter 1 Golden Needle Transmission Body Tempering Method
In the desolate valley, the cold wind blew across the cliffs, making a deep, mournful sound.
There were two cold corpses on the ground, their heads missing from their necks.
Bibi Dong had been staring at the young man in front of her for quite a while, and there was still a hint of confusion deep in her cold eyes.
She remained silent, and no one around her dared to utter a sound.
The young man was dressed in a stern black shirt, his eyebrows and eyes were like autumn water, his face was like a cold knife, the cold wind swept past his ears, and his figure was upright and proud.
His jet-black hair cascaded like a waterfall of silver, his face was rugged and handsome, flawless, and his sword-like eyebrows were dark.
"Thank you, Your Holiness the Pope, for saving my life."
Qin Xu's voice rang in her ears again, and Bibi Dong came back to her senses, finally realizing that she had been daydreaming.
She couldn't help it; the person before her was making her dizzy. The many similarities even gave her a feeling of karmic retribution.
The person I was back then, now that bastard in Tiandou City.
Both are useless martial spirits, and both are theoretical masters.
The difference is that the man of that time devoted half his life to his unfulfilled ideals, while the young man before me has already proven his wisdom.
Not to mention, her looks seem to surpass that one's, well... by quite a bit.
Sure enough, that golden retriever was just a pedantic person who cared too much about appearance!
Qin Xu, with the useless martial soul Blue Silver Grass and innate soul power at level two.
He broke through level 10 at age 11, level 20 at age 17, and level 30 at age 23, and is about to become a Soul Master.
Such talent is not considered good, and the potential is quite limited.
The key is the soul ring ratio at Qin Ruins.
One yellow and one purple.
The configuration of the second ring of the millennium is the same as hers!
The difference is that this second ring of the millennium appeared on the frail Blue Silver Grass.
The strength of a martial spirit greatly affects the maximum number of years a spirit ring can be absorbed.
The young man before me was merely a Great Soul Master, yet he had already invented a method for absorbing Soul Rings that could overturn conventional understanding.
According to Elder Serpent Spear, the young master of the Spirit Hall, who was lurking in Heaven Dou City, couldn't forget him, which made a group of elders in the Hall of Worship believe that he had ulterior motives.
Of course, Qin Xu's martial soul, Blue Silver Grass, was still weak. Even after breaking through to level 30, its aura was still no match for those great soul masters who possessed top-tier martial souls.
A Soul Master's innate Soul Power not only determines their upper limit and cultivation speed, but also the quality of their Martial Soul.
Blue Silver Grass is almost the weakest martial soul on the entire continent.
Bibi Dong glanced at Qin Xu's martial soul and found that the quality of Qin Xu's Blue Silver Grass martial soul was still very poor, and sighed slightly.
As expected, awakening a martial soul, or rather, making up for the shortcomings of a martial soul acquired later in life, is not so easy.
She concluded that even if Qin Xu could break through to level 30, level 50 Soul King would still be a threshold he would find difficult to cross.
This is related to the flaws in one's martial soul, just like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and Luo Sanpao.
"So alike, so very alike."
She couldn't express her true feelings, whether it was bewilderment or disappointment.
No matter how similar it is, it's useless.
Moreover, because of her poor sleep, she sometimes couldn't even distinguish whether her thoughts belonged to herself.
Qin Xu consciously took out a thin book from his own storage soul tool and handed it to Chrysanthemum Douluo in front of him.
"Is this what you want? If I hand it over to you, will I live?" Qin Xu asked.
The guard, Hei Bo, gritted his teeth and instinctively took a step forward, only to be stopped by Qin Xu.
Blackie is only a high-level Soul King, and he's quite old. Trying to be strong at this point would be pointless.
"As expected, it's the second ring of the millennium..." Chrysanthemum Douluo nodded slightly and immediately transmitted his voice.
"Your Majesty, the secret of the second ring of the millennium has already been obtained by that person. The meaning of the Hall of Offerings is..."
Before Chrysanthemum Douluo could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the Pope's calm voice.
"Don't be nervous, I mean you no harm. Someone asked me to help you get out of this."
Bibi Dong ignored Chrysanthemum Douluo. For reasons unknown, she didn't even glance at the thin book and said directly, "This is the Golden Needle Body Tempering Method? Just as she said, you are a true genius."
Chrysanthemum Douluo's face stiffened slightly, wondering what kind of crazy thing this eccentric pope was about to do this time.
The young master relayed the name of this method back to the Spirit Hall, but did not reveal any details of its contents. He also instructed the Spirit Hall to secretly protect this person as he left, or to have him join the Spirit Hall.
But what the young master didn't know was that some elders in the Hall of Offerings were touched by some old stories.
In some people's words, the young master values the person in front of him too much.
His life can be saved! But we must make sure this person doesn't harbor any designs on the young master.
Of course, they wouldn't personally deal with Qin Xu.
The Qin Xu family and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School have a grudge. It's normal that the Spirit Hall's intervention was a little delayed, isn't it?
Chrysanthemum Douluo thought so too. After being given a series of instructions from above, he planned to wait and then provide assistance. But who could have imagined that a pope would suddenly appear out of nowhere...
Qin Xu's expression shifted slightly, and he quickly thought of a small face that wasn't particularly pretty.
That guy's background is indeed extraordinary; he's actually connected to the Spirit Hall.
However, did the Pope of the Spirit Hall personally intervene for the "Golden Needle Guidance Body Tempering Method"?
"Your Holiness is too kind," Qin Xu said, pretending not to hear the Pope's first words.
He certainly knew the value of the "Golden Needle Body Tempering Method," but he thought further ahead.
Qin Xu wasn't truly obsessed with Soul Master theory or trying to gain fame through it. He studied Martial Souls simply to strengthen himself and evolve his Martial Soul.
Qin Xu was certain that his limit was definitely not Soul Venerable or Soul Sect. Currently, he had only created the Golden Needle Body Tempering Method, which was enough to gain the attention of the Spirit Hall. But what would happen when he broke through to Soul Saint, Soul Douluo, and improved his Spirit quality multiple times?
Will it attract people's covetousness?
Will people think that he has the method to improve the quality of martial souls? For example, if the young master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect only has half a level of innate soul power, will his sect leader attack him and seize his secret after he hears that he has broken the shackles of soul power cultivation?
Although Qin Xu claimed to have a level two innate soul power in his Blue Silver Grass, the truth is that after his martial soul underwent a malignant mutation, he had no innate soul power at all!
The claim of having level two innate soul power was a remedy he made later…
Now, the quality of his martial soul has been improved many times and is comparable to a martial soul with innate level three soul power.
The reason he was being secretive was that he was unsure of the Spirit Hall's practices and dared not use this to test others, thus putting himself in danger.
If it could be resolved verbally, that would be fine, but Qin Xu fears that even if he spoke of it, some people wouldn't believe him.
He knew very well that there were some strange soul skills in this world that could make people reveal their true nature or search their souls.
If Qin Xu were to reveal that he was a time traveler, it would be difficult to predict what would happen in the future.
Bibi Dong opened the thin book and looked at the neat and elegant handwriting. Her eyes gradually became turbulent.
Stealing a glance at Bibi Dong, Qin Xu's thoughts were like clouds, dispersing and then quickly gathering again.
"Could you explain your theory to me in detail?" Bibi Dong asked, ignoring the strange looks from those around her, and then dismissed the others.
At Qin Xu's signal, Hei Bo also left.
"I'd be happy to," Qin Xu said, taking a deep breath.
"As we all know, there is a limit to how a Soul Master can absorb low-level Soul Rings. This is not only due to physical strength, but also related to the type of Martial Soul, the innate Soul Power level, and the type of Soul Beast... However, the only thing that can be steadily improved is physical strength. Therefore, given the relative preciousness of rare and precious materials, I chose to focus on developing the human body."
"Through the study of the human body and the secrets of medicine, I discovered that the human body holds great secrets... the twelve regular meridians, the eight extraordinary meridians, the five internal organs, the six bowels, and the nine orifices, all of which are infinitely mysterious..."
"After more than ten years of research, I finally discovered that there are some special acupoints on the human body's meridians. By connecting the soul power with golden needles and stimulating the acupoints with special medicinal liquids, the efficiency of the human body's meridians in absorbing energy can be temporarily improved, the potential of the physical body can be stimulated, and the physical body's upper limit can be increased in a short period of time."
Qin Ruins paused for a moment.
"The human body holds great secrets..." Bibi Dong nodded slightly, but her expression was somewhat complicated.
"Well said, please continue." Bibi Dong took a deep breath.
"...The specific acupoints for acupuncture are: starting from key acupoints on the spine along the Du meridian, such as Dazhui, Taodao, Shenzhu, and Shendao...types of medicinal solutions..."
Qin Xu was talking eloquently when he suddenly caught a faint fragrance from Bibi Dong. He didn't know when Bibi Dong had become so close to him.
Qin Xu was somewhat flustered, even though he had turned off auto-aiming.
But being so close still puts little Chu Nan in a difficult position.
Especially for Qin Xu, who has a thing for mature, older women…
Sensing that something was amiss, Qin Xu promptly lowered his voice and keenly observed that Bibi Dong seemed somewhat agitated.
Bibi Dong was indeed feeling uneasy. She had just used her soul power to create a simple concept, and the result shocked her. This Golden Needle Transmission Body Tempering Method was far more effective than what Qin Xu had described, and it could definitely greatly increase the maximum lifespan for absorbing soul rings.
Importantly, the medicinal liquid used is also very common, but the formula is ingenious.
Use this method.
The first spirit ring can reliably increase the maximum lifespan by two hundred years, the second spirit ring can increase it by five hundred years, and the third spirit ring can increase it by at least one thousand years.
It should be noted that the significance of the age limit of a soul ring goes far beyond the current soul skill; it is also related to the cultivation speed and the foundation of one's cultivation. Otherwise, who would care about the difference of several hundred years in the age limit of a Soul Saint or higher?
The maximum lifespan of a spirit ring is a single, continuous process.
For example, without special circumstances, if the first spirit ring exceeds the limit age, the limit age of the second spirit ring may reach a thousand years.
Conversely, if the first spirit ring is four hundred years old, then obtaining the second spirit ring for a thousand years would require a great deal of luck.
One step, one step.
in other words.
The research on the Qin Ruins has already secured its place in history. It has even become Xiaogang's ultimate dream, which he has pursued for half his life.
However, this only made Bibi Dong feel more inexplicably annoyed.
