Douluo Jueshi: Picking up Firefly at the Beginning

Chapter 19 Extraordinary Talent
The higher the level of meditation in Douluo Continent, the more efficient it is in absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, the higher the proportion converted into soul power, and the better the effect of tempering mental strength.

The cultivation system in this world focuses on physical fitness and spirit. Because this world is very strange, in order to break through in cultivation, one must hunt soul beasts and absorb their soul rings in order to break through to the next stage.

Absorbing the soul rings of soul beasts requires a certain level of physical fitness and mental strength.

In this world, soul masters must absorb soul rings to break through. The older the soul rings, the greater the benefits they gain. However, the physical fitness of soul masters has its limits, so there is the so-called optimal soul ring ratio.

However, if one absorbs a ten thousand year soul ring, he will be attacked by the residual soul of the ten thousand year soul beast. At that time, the spirit master's mental strength will be tested. Therefore, the cultivation method in this world is very simple and crude. The effect of meditation is simply to extract soul power from the essence of heaven and earth, and at the same time improve mental strength.

As for physical fitness, you need to train yourself, but there is no specific method to cultivate the body. The physical fitness of most soul masters at the same level is similar, only those with beast martial souls are stronger. Some owners of twin martial souls, or powerful sects with secret body-building methods, can absorb soul rings that exceed the age limit, surpassing ordinary soul masters from the starting point.

Even the protagonist of the first part of Meteor Memory was slightly ahead of others in the early stage of soul ring configuration because of the Xuantian Gong and the enhancement of the twin martial souls.

However, in this regard, Liuxing felt that he and Liuying had a great advantage. Although Liuying had rejuvenated and turned into a little loli for unknown reasons, her foundation was there. Liuxing inherited Liuying's physical fitness and was also far superior to his peers.

As for mental strength, Liuying has been baptized by countless battles and her mental strength must be no low, and the same goes for Liuxing, otherwise he would not have learned the characters of Douluo Continent in just one month. With his original mental strength and memory, he would not be able to learn a foreign language without years of persistence, but now, he only needs one month, and this is the mental strength inherited from Liuying.

In the universe of Firefly, those who can embark on the path of Star God are one in ten thousand. Each of them must be a person of strong will, otherwise they would not be qualified to embark on this path.

It’s just that Liuying doesn’t know how to use her powerful mental power, but the subtle benefits brought by powerful mental power will not disappear. For example, in terms of learning, people with strong mental power naturally have more advantages than ordinary people.

What others need a year to learn, you can learn in a month. Over time, the gap will naturally become apparent.

As his basic knowledge was supplemented, Liu Xing understood more and more about this world. Combined with his memories of his previous life, he already had a good understanding of the Douluo Continent during this period of time.

Of course, he would not blindly trust his own memory. This was a real universe, not a false one. His memory was not necessarily accurate. Everything needed to be seen with his own eyes.

What if this world is just a parallel world similar to the one in his memory? This possibility is not impossible.

Liuxing looked out the window. A yellow halo around Nan Qiuqiu's body rose and fell. Her right hand was in a claw shape, with a pink glow, grabbing Liuying, but Liuying just moved her body slightly and dodged Nan Qiuqiu's attack.

Liuying did not fight back. Relying on her amazing intuition and the combat experience that seemed to be engraved in her bones, she dodged all of Nan Qiuqiu's attacks. Even when Nan Qiuqiu used her first soul skill, the Hand of Annihilation, in a fit of rage, Liuying quickly dodged it, making Nan Qiuqiu so angry that she jumped to her feet.

Nan Shuishui watched from the side, looking at Liuying with a look of wonder and doubt. She couldn't understand how a little girl over four could have such a terrifying fighting instinct. Ultimately, she could only conclude that Liuying was gifted. After all, this Douluo Continent wasn't like the immortal cultivation novels Liuxing had read. There was no possession of bodies or reincarnation of powerful beings. Ultimately, she could only attribute it to her exceptional talent.

"No more fighting, no more fighting, Liuying, you're too good at hiding!"

Nan Qiuqiu was panting and supporting her knees, her face flushed red. She had exhausted her physical strength in the previous chase, and she had also used her first soul skill. With her current soul power level, the first soul skill could only be used three times at most. Liuying dodged the Hand of Annihilation twice in a row. She had no more soul power left. If she used it again, her soul power would be exhausted. That feeling was too uncomfortable. It was just a sparring match, she would not fight so hard!

However, she was very unwilling to be defeated by her sister Liuying, who was two years younger than her and had not yet awakened her martial spirit. She thought of herself as Miss Nan Qiuqiu, who had defeated all her peers in Longmen and was no match for them. This made her feel that the world was so big and the enemies were everywhere. However, she did not expect the blow to come so quickly, which made her feel aggrieved and wanted to cry.

Xu Shenshu, who was standing next to him, patted his head and said naively, "Big Sister, you're already very powerful. When I fought with Second Sister, I was always beaten black and blue."

As if recalling the scene of being punched in the face by Liuying's pink fist, Xu Shenshu shuddered. Ever since he was beaten up by Liuying several times, he has been convinced by this second sister. He never wanted to experience that iron fist that looked soft but was as hard as steel again.

"Yeah! Big sister, you are already very powerful, at least better than all of us."

Xiao Feng, Feng Jue and other Longmen disciples nodded repeatedly. In the eyes of these little brats, the eldest sister was very powerful for being able to chase after the perverted loli Second Sister and finally admit defeat due to exhaustion.

"Hahaha! Of course, otherwise how could I be your big sister!"

Nan Qiuqiu felt inflated again after being flattered. She put her hands on her hips and wiped her nose smugly.

Nan Shuishui next to her slapped herself in the face, speechless. This girl is hopeless. It seems like she has raised her own daughter astray.

Liuxing looked at this scene and chuckled. He knew Liuying's physical fitness best. Even though she had just been chased and beaten by Nan Qiuqiu, for Liuying, that was at best just a warm-up.

However, Nan Qiuqiu's soul skills just now also made Liuxing's eyes light up. Nan Qiuqiu broke through to the tenth level of soul power a few days ago. She was taken by Nan Shuishui to the Sunset Forest to obtain the first soul ring and officially became an eleventh-level one-ring soul master.

Given Nan Qiuqiu's innate ninth-level soul power, if she hadn't been so playful, she should have been able to break through to the tenth level even faster. According to her, the first soul ring she absorbed was about four hundred and fifty years old, which has slightly exceeded the theoretical limit of a soul master's first soul ring.
