Chapter 106

"But soon everyone discovered that this kind of cultivation technique had low efficiency, coupled with the thin Source Energy on our Blue Star."

"If you continue to practice like this, you might not be able to produce a High Realm martial artist in decades."

"Later, the Red Emperor, as the world's strongest person, discovered that disaster beasts of the Mid Realm and above, even if they do nothing, just sleep, their bodies will involuntarily absorb the free Source Energy in the air."

"The higher the level, the stronger the effect."

"The efficiency is dozens of times higher than the breathing methods created by us humans."

"They, the disaster beasts, seem to be the darlings of the universe and heaven and earth, and their flesh itself contains the mysteries and laws of heaven and earth."

"So the Red Emperor exerted our humans' strongest power—observation; he observed the breathing method of the Level 8 disaster beast Lava Sparrow, the texture in its flesh and tendons, and then visualized the Lava Sparrow through spirit."

"Eventually, he successfully created humanity's first true Source Energy cultivation technique—'Lava Sparrow Evolution Method'."

"Since then, various Source Energy cultivation techniques have been created one after another, and the overall strength of human martial arts has had a qualitative leap, thereby resisting the invasion of disaster beasts."

Lin Qi suddenly realized after hearing this; so the Source Energy cultivation technique had such an origin.

The Red Emperor is worthy of being the world's strongest person, actually creating the "Lava Sparrow Evolution Method" out of thin air.

Then how high is his talent and comprehension?

"During the research process, everyone discovered that the higher the level of the visualized disaster beast, the better the absorption of Source Energy and the tempering effect on the body."

"For martial artists breaking through to the Second Realm, the Level 8 disaster beast is the limit of what they can bear." The white-clad old man continued to explain.

Lin Qi nodded; in the manuals, evolution methods with Level 8 disaster beasts as visualization objects are all five-star, while Level 7 disaster beasts are four-star.

As for why not visualize Level 9 (King level) disaster beasts, it is because the human spirit is too fragile in the Low Realm and cannot visualize them.

That is already an evolution method that Mid Realm martial artists can visualize.

Once there was a genius who wanted to try, forcibly visualizing the Level 9 disaster beast Earth-Shaking Dragon Elephant, and the result was severe spiritual damage, turning the whole person into an idiot.

The bloody lesson made later generations take it as a warning.

"Next, I will narrate the cultivation method of the 'Jin Gang Tiger Evolution Method'." The white-clad old man started to explain the key points.

"Sit cross-legged, hands in a five-hearts-toward-heaven posture!"

"Let the whole body relax, the heart be calm, adjust the breathing, two short and one long..."

"Remove all distracting thoughts in your heart, concentrate your spirit..."

Lin Qi followed what the old man in the video said, sat cross-legged, and presented the five-hearts-toward-heaven posture.

Let the heart be calm, remove all extra distracting thoughts, and adjust the breathing.

Step by step, proceeding methodically.

Soon his heart entered a state of clarity and transparency, his mind like a calm lake surface, without a ripple.

"Then use faith to communicate with the Heiyao Strange Stone, triggering the Jin Gang Tiger Divine Intent Map!"

Listening to the white-clad old man's words, Lin Qi was puzzled.

Faith is formless and soundless; how is he supposed to command it?

He could only rely on feeling, locking onto the position of the Heiyao Strange Stone in the darkness, imagining that faith formed an arm and trying hard to contact it.

"Boom!!"

In an instant, a loud bang suddenly sounded in his brain.

In the martial arts room, Xiao Chan, who was projected, only saw the Heiyao Strange Stone suddenly light up.

It shot a beam of golden light into Lin Qi's brain.

……

At the same time,

In the spacious martial arts room of a certain villa in the wealthy district.

Li Zhou, who was burly, took off his martial arts uniform soaked in sweat and touched the scars remaining on his chest.

"After two days, having taken several tubes of treatment potions, the injury can be considered completely recovered."

He sat cross-legged, suddenly thinking of Lin Qi.

"Lin Qi should be practicing Source Energy cultivation techniques by now."

"I spent six hours back then, using exquisite top-tier incense, just to remove the distracting thoughts in my heart."

"And communicating with the Divine Intent Map, it took me three days to visualize the Divine Intent Map."

"I don't know how long he needs?"

Li Zhou thought to himself, a moment later, he threw himself back into training.

This disaster beast tide at Wanda made him see the gap between himself and Lin Qi, and his only advantage now is the Qi-blood value, which must not be surpassed again.

……

Cangqiong Martial Arts Pavilion, top floor Lu Guanzhu's office.

Yue Feng looked through the window at a crimson transport vehicle leaving and disappearing from his line of sight. "Lin Qi's Divine Intent Map has already been delivered; he should have started trying to practice."

"Old Sun, you are a Fifth Realm martial artist; how long did it take you to visualize it back then?"

Yue Feng asked Supervisor Sun, who was sitting on the sofa not far away.

Supervisor Sun shook his head and said: "I am not a genius; it took me two full days just to remove distracting thoughts back then."

"And it took another week to completely visualize the Divine Intent Map."

Yue Feng looked at the buildings outside the window and recalled: "I seemed to have spent four hours removing distracting thoughts back then and succeeded in visualization in two days."

"The first time practicing Source Energy cultivation techniques, I increased my Qi-blood value by 1.0."

"How long do you say Lin Qi can succeed in visualization and start officially practicing Source Energy cultivation techniques?"

Supervisor Sun said: "Maybe not as good as the Lu Guanzhu!"

Yue Feng shook his head: "He should be about the same as me!"

……

!

At this time, inside the B123 martial arts room, it was peaceful.

"Roar!"

Lin Qi's brain, however, felt as if it were about to explode; a violent tiger roar that shook the sky filled his mind.

He suddenly opened his eyes, as if entering a pitch-black and void space.

In front of his eyes appeared a massive creature; this was a tiger-type disaster beast with a body like a towering small mountain, its body length exceeding fifty meters.

Its muscles were bulging, the lines rigid as if cast in iron. Its fur was as if cast in gold.

Every hair was like a golden needle, flashing with a metallic luster.

Its head was huge and majestic, and in its blood-red mouth, its sharp teeth were terrifying, like intersecting cold knives.

Its limbs were thick and strong, as if they could tear apart the earth and the firmament, and the tiger tail behind it was like a massive golden steel whip, as if it could whip and shatter everything that blocked it.

Lin Qi widened his eyes; this is the Level 8 disaster beast—Jin Gang Tiger!!

It is also the most top-tier existence among Level 8 disaster beasts; in front of it, he is as small as dust.

Lin Qi came back to his senses and immediately memorized every detail on the Jin Gang Tiger; this is the Divine Intent Map.

Presenting the visualized disaster beast in the form of a Divine Intent Map.

"Swish!!"

A moment later, the Jin Gang Tiger dissipated and returned to the Heiyao Strange Stone.

And Lin Qi, who was still not satisfied, returned to the martial arts room.

He immediately closed his eyes and started visualizing the Jin Gang Tiger in his consciousness space.

His memory was very good, and the general framework had already been memorized.

He made his heart, which was restless because of seeing the Jin Gang Tiger, completely calm.

In the void consciousness space, he used spirit as a pen to outline the appearance of the Jin Gang Tiger.

He was completely immersed in it.

A few minutes later, Lin Qi opened his eyes and frowned.

"Failed!"

Lin Qi had just outlined the entire body, but he lost focus for an instant, and the entire body dissipated.

"Using spiritual will as a pen to outline the lines of the Jin Gang Tiger, there are a total of 36,000 strokes."

"In the process of visualization, it must be done in one go, without a single mistake or omission." The white-clad old man in the video continued to say.

"Whoosh~"

Lin Qi adjusted his state of mind and continued to visualize.

Spiritual will, all invested in it, entered a peculiar state.

The shape of the Jin Gang Tiger was constantly being outlined.

An hour later, Lin Qi opened his eyes, watched the Divine Intent Map again, and then visualized again.

The spiritual consumption was huge, so he took a refreshing potion.

Finally, he even took a high-level refreshing potion, letting his spirit be in an excited state at all times.

"Almost there, almost there!"

Lin Qi thought to himself.

He had a premonition that today, he would succeed in visualization.
