Chapter 210: Accepting Results and Shocking the Elders

Now the Spirit Power of these two hundred people is sufficient, and their Body Strength has also been raised; it is time to begin the experiment.

Next, Jerry added an evening study session, which mainly focused on explaining the Extraordinary Meridians.

The Conception Vessel, Governing Vessel, Thoroughfare Vessel, Girdle Vessel, Yin Heel Vessel, Yang Heel Vessel, Yin Linking Vessel, and Yang Linking Vessel—the acupoints of every meridian must be memorized thoroughly.

Meridians are nothing to joke about; one careless mistake and one could suffer a deviation in Cultivation, causing the meridians to snap.

Therefore, everyone must memorize them thoroughly before they are taught how to truly practice Cultivation.

After Jerry built the hospital previously and spent some time inside, he discovered many people with injured meridians.

However, the Healing soul skills of this world can only treat external injuries; they have no way to deal with the meridians inside the body. Thus, many people appear fine on the surface with no external wounds, but their internal meridians are already damaged.

Meridian damage, if mild, affects daily physical movement; if severe, it directly affects Cultivation.

Jerry has studied meridian damage and found it very difficult to heal. He estimates that only some Immortal Herbs could heal it, but regarding Immortal Herbs, Jerry only knows those few types.

Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum: consuming it circulates Qi through the four limbs, clears the eight meridians with blood, and can forge a Diamond Indestructible Body.

Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone: moistens tendons and supplements bones, clearing Qi through the Extraordinary Meridians.

These are the only two Immortal Herbs related to meridians. Jerry has personally consumed the pills refined from them, and they have no effect of repairing meridians. If there is a problem with the meridians, eating pills refined from these two Immortal Herbs is undoubtedly equivalent to suicide.

There are certainly more than just these few types of Immortal Herbs, but Tang San did not encounter the others in the original work, so there was no explanation for them.

Given his current relationship with Tang San, the only way to obtain all the knowledge about Immortal Herbs from him would be to capture him and directly extract his soul to view his memories.

However, Jerry has searched many times and has not found Tang San. Jerry feels that the reason he cannot find the person is likely because he has run off into the Secret Realm of that god.

Not knowing where the entrance to the Secret Realm is, he can only wait for them to come out. It is a bit too passive, but there is no other way.

Before there is a method to repair meridians, Jerry can only instruct these two hundred people to memorize them thoroughly.

Three days later, all two hundred people had memorized them. As expected, after their Spirit Power improved, they learned things faster.

Jerry conducted random checks, and all two hundred people remembered them very well.

Jerry does not know how the opening of the Profound Heaven Art is supposed to circulate, but Jerry deduced that to practice Cultivation, one must first have internal energy inside the body.

Where does internal energy come from? It is nourished by the body's blood and Qi. The body's blood and Qi have a great deal to do with the food one eats, which is why Jerry had them improve their Body Strength during this period.

Internal energy comes about this way; converting it into soul power should be about the same.

However, letting a trace of soul power be born in the body through food training is too slow. Jerry has a better method: using Soul Power Pills refined from soul power fruit or Soul-Sealing Grass.

Jerry still has many of these pills on hand; the low-year ones refined previously are no longer useful to Jerry.

Jerry called over one person and told him not to open the acupoints yet, but just to change the route in the Primary Meditation Method to circulate through the Extraordinary Meridians.

Then Jerry gave him a diluted ten-year Soul Power Pill to take, which contained only one year's worth of soul power.

This was still one of the experimental Soul Power Pills refined at the very beginning; one-year medicinal herbs really do not have much soul power and have no refining value, so he used ten-year herbs directly.

Practice works, and now they come in handy.

Higher-year ones contain too much soul power, and for ordinary people, Jerry was afraid of bursting their meridians.

As soon as this Soul Power Pill entered the Spirit Master's body, it began to release soul power.

"Concentrate your mind, control this trace of soul power, and then let it circulate along the Extraordinary Meridians."

Jerry prompted from the side, but because this test subject was feeling soul power in their body for the first time, they were a bit flustered. Ten minutes passed, and they had not controlled a single trace of soul power. These soul powers circled their body once and finally were expelled out of the body directly through their breathing.

"Lord Jerry, the—the soul power has disappeared!" the test subject said tremblingly.

"It's fine. It's the first time, so it's normal to be a bit nervous and unable to concentrate. Try again. Remember, you only have ten minutes. If you don't control a trace of soul power within ten minutes, this soul power will be expelled from the body. Don't be greedy; just control one trace."

After Jerry finished speaking, he took out another Soul Power Pill and handed it to him.

After having taken it once, this test subject also knew the preciousness of this pill.

He carefully took the pill and did not take it immediately, but took a few deep breaths to calm his mindset before taking the pill.

With the experience of the first failure, this time when the soul power was released, he was no longer nervous or excited, but focused entirely on controlling one trace of soul power first.

After the Soul Power Pill finished releasing the soul power, this surge of soul power began to disperse and then darted around everywhere.

Although this Soul Power Pill only had one year's worth of soul power, after dispersing, it turned directly into thirty traces. Previously, this test subject had started to get nervous because he saw the dispersed soul power and wanted to control it all; the final result was that he controlled none of it.

However, Lord Jerry said that one only needs to control one trace, so this time he stared fixedly at one trace of soul power and began to control it. As for the others, he let them dart around and firmly refused to look at them.

One minute later, he successfully controlled one trace. There was still time, so he continued to control the second trace.

Ten minutes later, this test subject cheered happily.

"Lord Jerry, I controlled twelve traces of soul power! I have soul power! I have soul power!"

Jerry had been observing the whole time. At first, he wasn't very skilled, taking a minute to control one trace; later, he gradually became skilled, and the speed of control increased. In the end, he controlled twelve traces in ten minutes.

With these twelve traces of soul power, this test subject could now begin Cultivation.

"Very good, you did well. Just don't be in a hurry to open the acupoints yet; first, circulate the Meditation Method according to the Extraordinary Meridians. Right now, your soul power is too low, and opening acupoints requires a lot of soul power. You don't need to sleep tonight; you can use meditation to replace sleep."

"Thank you, Lord Jerry! Thank you, Lord Jerry!"

When this test subject was thanking Jerry, a large mass of Faith Power flew directly out of his body and merged into Jerry's body.

Wow, so letting ordinary people embark on the path of Cultivation can generate so much Faith Power.

Jerry organized the key points of taking the Soul Power Pill and controlling soul power.

The next day, after Jerry explained the key points, the remaining one hundred and ninety-nine people all received their Soul Power Pills, took the pills directly in the Xiulianchang, and began Cultivation as a group.

In the ten minutes, some were happy and some were sad.

Many people made the same mistake as the previous test subject, wanting it all, and as a result, they got nothing.

Those who controlled the soul power began to practice soul power on the side. For those who did not control it, Jerry reissued a Soul Power Pill for them to continue taking and continue controlling.

Some people controlled a trace of soul power with just one pill; the highest one controlled twenty-six traces of soul power with one pill—that was the one with 2800 Spirit Power.

Some people only controlled a trace of soul power after two pills; the worst took three pills to control a single trace.

All two hundred people now had soul power and had embarked on the path of Cultivation.

Jerry had them test their soul power, but the results were a bit unsatisfactory. Even the one who controlled twenty-six traces of soul power did not show up on the detector. It seems this instrument cannot detect soul power less than 0.1 level.

It needs to be improved. In the future, many people will be ordinary people embarking on the path of the Spirit Master; if it cannot be detected, they will have no sense of progress, and there will be no motivation for Cultivation.

Soul Power Pills can indeed accelerate the increase of soul power, but there are too few of these low-year ones, and Jerry does not want to refine them right now, so he can only guarantee one pill per person per day.

One week later, they were tested again; this time, the detector displayed everyone's soul power, with the highest at 1.4 levels and the lowest at 0.8 levels.

After seeing this data, everyone started shouting and yelling, and some even burst into loud tears on the spot.

How many years had it been? Ever since their Spirit Awakening, they had been treated as trash.

In their families, they were looked down upon, mocked, ridiculed, and bullied by other disciples, until finally, they gave up on themselves and began living as wastrels.

Now that Lord Jerry had given them all soul power, allowing them to embark on the path of a Spirit Master and shed the title of trash, their mental states exploded; the emotions suppressed in their hearts for years erupted, which led to the scene of shouting and loud crying.

Seeing the scene before him, Jerry thought of his former self, who had been looked down upon and isolated at the academy because of his half-level of soul power.

Actually, were they wrong? No.

Why were they looked down upon by others? Because without soul power, one was not recognized, and thus deserved to be bullied?

The two hundred people on the Xiulianchang finally controlled their emotions, then one after another, they bowed to Jerry.

"Thank you, Lord Jerry, for giving us a new life."

A thousand words were finally condensed into one sentence to express their gratitude to Jerry.

The first sentence was heartfelt gratitude; the second, "new life," represented their farewell to the past.

At this moment, Jerry discovered that their mental states had all changed; the trace of inferiority that had always been on their faces before had completely vanished, and now their faces were filled with confidence.

This kind of confidence did not just stem from their own possession of soul power, but more so from the confidence Jerry had brought them; at this moment, they were all very fortunate—fortunate that they had come to Lord Jerry's testing ground, and fortunate that they had persisted.

"Congratulations to everyone for gaining soul power and embarking on the path of a Spirit Master from this day forward. However, this path is not just about superficial glory; there is still a lot of effort and sweat required behind it. I hope you can persist in the future, cultivate to a higher realm, and serve the Spirit Hall well in the future."

"Yes, Lord Jerry, we will definitely cultivate hard."

Because they now had soul power, the intensity of the subsequent training was increased.

Previously, the gravity was added slowly, but now Jerry directly activated double gravity, and from then on, the Gravity Array would no longer be turned off; it would remain continuously active, with everyone's daily life and activities taking place under the gravity.

Because everyone's Cultivation speed was different, Jerry brought out many tools to assist in Cultivation, letting them choose freely.

A portion of those who cultivated faster chose weight-bearing tools to add some extra gravity for themselves individually.

Because Jerry had to look after everyone and would only increase the gravity after everyone had adapted, those who cultivated quickly began to add extra training for themselves.

The Spirit Power of these two hundred people also grew rapidly, but Jerry did not intend to let them walk the path of a Soul Guidance Master.

Jerry prepared to cultivate a batch of Alchemists.

He found an empty space in the Research Department and began planting Soul-Sealing Grass.

This time, ten-year ones were not needed; one-year ones would suffice to let them practice, and the pills refined would be used specifically to open up soul power.

In the past, the Fairy Queen had once told Jerry that the technique for the Extraordinary Meridians was too miraculous and that he should not pass it on.

But now that the world had undergone World Advancement, with Jerry's current strength, there was nothing to fear, so he would make it public; let the whole population cultivate, and Tang San, your only advantage is gone.

Time passed, and it had been one year since the experiment began.

Under the supply of Jerry's Spirit Gathering Array, Gravity Array, pills, and high-energy food, the lowest among these two hundred people was now a Soul Ancestor, and the highest was already a Soul Emperor.

The reason for such a large improvement was also partly because, after the World Advancement, Cultivation had become easier.

It was time to report the results to the Great Elder.

After receiving the notification, the Great Elder brought the various Elders to the Research Department; they had been very concerned about this matter throughout the year, but the Research Department was not a place just anyone could enter, not even Elders, so they could only worry from the outside.

"Great Elder, you have arrived. Seats have been prepared here. Today is the final assessment, which is just right for you all to witness the results of this year."

After Jerry finished speaking and guided the Elders to their seats, he announced the start of the test.

"The first one, Jin Ze, step forward."

Following Jerry's call, a sturdy young man, one meter eighty tall, walked out.

"This is Jin Ze? Is this still my good-for-nothing grandson? These muscles—what has he been eating to be so sturdy now? And he's grown so much taller?" Great Elder Jin'e looked at his grandson and could hardly recognize him.

As Jin Ze stepped into the testing instrument, a voice broadcast sounded.

"Starting detection!"

"Beep, detection complete, starting broadcast!"

"Name: Jin Ze"

"Martial soul: Golden Crocodile"

"Age: 18 years old"

"Soul power: Level 61 Soul Emperor"

"Spirit Ring: Purple, Purple, Purple, Black, Black, Black"

"Body Strength: 80000"

"Spirit Power: 5400"

"Soul skill: First Spirit Skill..."

"Cultivation suggestion: Gravity can be increased to 20 times; Spirit Power is on the low side; add one hour of Visualization Cultivation every day."

"Broadcast complete, printing broadcast data!"

As the broadcast finished, all the Elders were stunned.

Cultivating to a Soul Emperor in one year—how could this be possible?

Great Elder Jin'e was the most surprised; is this still my grandson? And his Spirit Power is 5400, and it's still considered low? An 18-year-old Soul Emperor—could this already be considered a genius? Great Elder Jin'e could not even be sure of himself now.

Thinking of his other three grandsons at home, the one with the highest Spirit Power was only a little over two thousand.

When Jin Ze returns home, you three little brats won't be able to be arrogant in the family anymore.

"Jin Ze, you have been focusing on body Cultivation recently, and your Spirit Power hasn't kept up. You need to set aside some time later to practice Visualization more!" Jerry said after reviewing the data.

"Yes, Lord Jerry. I've been too obsessed with body Cultivation lately; I will definitely pay attention in the future." After bowing, Jin Ze retreated back into the crowd.

Hearing Jerry's evaluation, Great Elder Jin'e curled his lips, seemingly disagreeing with Jerry's statement.

If you evaluate him like that, are the three at my house all trash?

"The second one,..."
