Chapter 67: Technique! Douluo Number One

When the first ray of sunlight hit Li Xuan's face early the next morning, Li Xuan slowly opened his eyes.

Li Xuan first sensed the condition inside his body; the weakness and fatigue of last night had been completely swept away, and the vigorous soul power and blood‑filled body gave Li Xuan abundant vigor!

Li Xuan did not hesitate and climbed out of his bed.

Now that Li Xuan has mastered all the cultivation memories of the Filthy Flame Yin Lotus, he already has a direction for creating a technique; by continuously pondering and trying, he will surely be able to forge a method of his own.

Just as Li Xuan was full of vigor, he suddenly noticed corrosive marks on his pillow, sheets, blanket, and the floor.

"Damn, that damn Filthy Flame Yin Lotus, I only bought a few blankets and it ruined them like this." Li Xuan looked at the ruined items in annoyance, grabbed the sheets, blanket, and pillow and tossed them into the trash room.

After returning to his room, Li Xuan took out lime powder, mixed it with water, and filled the marks on the floor; although it could not restore the original state, it would at least prevent tripping.

Then Li Xuan took another blanket from his backpack and put it on; looking at the clean, tidy room, he nodded in satisfaction.

After finishing, Li Xuan went to his desk, closed the two notebooks and solemnly placed them into his Void Pearl.

These are the records Li Xuan painstakingly compiled of the Filthy Flame Yin Lotus's exploration of meridian acupoints; with these two notebooks, Li Xuan now has the foundation for creating his technique.

"Right, I can't skip class any longer; if I skip again I might be expelled! The Fire-type Simulated Cultivation Environment here is still very suitable for my cultivation, I can't leave it lightly." Li Xuan slapped his head, hurried to wash up and change clothes, and in no time he was dressed and headed straight to the classroom.

When he arrived in the classroom, Li Xuan no longer felt like reading; he found a corner, re‑examined the recorded memories while correcting and adjusting what he had noted last night.

After all, a misstep in cultivation can be fatal.

Thus, before he knew it, the end‑of‑class bell rang; Li Xuan snapped back to reality, massaged his slightly sore temples, closed the notebook, stood, bowed to the teacher, and then turned and left the classroom.

After a simple lunch, Li Xuan headed straight to the library.

Although the Filthy Flame Yin Lotus spent a thousand years exploring the human body, one must still gather others' experiences, for hearing only one side leads to darkness, while hearing both brings clarity.

And the library houses a large collection of Soul Master cultivation notes.

Soul Master cultivation notes are the experiences and techniques that Soul Masters record about cultivation.

Generally, these notes are the secret teachings of certain Soul Master families or sects.

Blue Tyrant Academy must have paid a hefty price and likely leveraged the influence of the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Family to gather so many notes; otherwise, how could a small shabby school obtain so many valuables?

But Liu Erlong did not expect the students here to dislike reading so much, letting these precious notes gather dust for so long! Li Xuan shook his head, took several notes from the shelves, went to a reading room in the library, opened his notebook, read the notes while organizing the information, and also compared them with the methods recorded in the Filthy Flame Yin Lotus memories.

Finally, he compiled the information into a new notebook.

……

For a full month, Li Xuan devoted all his energy to the Soul Master cultivation notes and the Filthy Flame Yin Lotus memories. He filled more than a dozen notebooks with his notes alone.

When Li Xuan closed the last Soul Master cultivation notebook, he bore two panda‑like dark circles, yet his eyes shone with brilliance.

"By combining these Soul Master cultivation experiences with those of the Filthy Flame Yin Lotus, as long as I keep working hard, I'll soon compile the most suitable technique for me!" Li Xuan laughed heartily, placed the last Soul Master cultivation notebook back, closed his own notebook, and turned back to his Dormitory.

For Li Xuan, creating a technique is akin to building a house.

The Filthy Flame Yin Lotus memories are like the foundation stones of a house, while the Soul Master cultivation notes are like various design blueprints; each blueprint has merits, giving Li Xuan more ideas for his technique.

Moreover, after a month of repeated experiments and careful scrutiny, Li Xuan has produced a version of the technique; only a final test remains before officially declaring success.

Thus, after returning to his Dormitory, Li Xuan took out a dozen thick notebooks from his Void Pearl and laid them on the desk in order.

Next, Li Xuan opened those books, took out sheets depicting meridian pathways, and his smile never faded.

Soon, Li Xuan retrieved 108 drawings and arranged them together in order.

This is the result of Li Xuan's month‑long effort: the first edition of his cultivation technique! Li Xuan said nothing, returned to his bed and sat cross‑legged.

He began to control soul power to circulate within his meridians.

Li Xuan's technique has two functions: one for refinement, the other for absorption.

As for other flashy functions, Li Xuan added none to the technique.

As soul power circulated once through Li Xuan's body, further hammered by the Burning Heart Divine Flame, the once ordinary soul power condensed severalfold, emitting a faint golden glow.

Li Xuan extended his hand, and the golden soul power slowly released; although he did not use it, he could feel its strength! This is the technique Li Xuan devised to purify soul power, clearing most impurities so it would not affect his control over flame.

The purification function proved very effective in trials, but cultivation is not solely purification; it also requires absorbing surrounding soul power, which calls for the remaining half of the technique! Li Xuan steadied his mind, regulated his breath, and continued to control soul power through the main meridians.

The next scene unfolded as Li Xuan had planned: the technique's operation caused surrounding soul power to surge wildly into his body, and in just ten minutes his meridians were brimming with soul power.

Then Li Xuan used the initial pathway to refine and compress those soul powers, finally turning them into a golden‑red energy that entered his dantian.

Indeed, Li Xuan ultimately chose the dantian as his storage for soul power.

Because Li Xuan found the dantian to be the most stable of all acupoints, hidden deep in the abdomen and the safest.

Both parts of the technique have been tested and fully meet Li Xuan's expectations, even exceeding them.

"Haha, I've made it! I finally created a technique! From now on you'll be called Douluo Number One, and there will be Number Two, Number Three in the future, continuously refining the technique until we obtain the ultimate soul power cultivation method." Li Xuan raised his head and let out a long howl, simultaneously giving this technique a ridiculous continental name.

Thank you, dear readers, for the first orders, love you all (End of chapter).
