Douluo Continent: What should I do if I don't have a cheat system?

Chapter 18 Experiment on the Abandoned Martial Soul

Jerry felt he had discovered a new era in plant-type martial soul cultivation and couldn't wait to experiment with it. His first choice for the experimental subject was, of course, his own grandfather, Jack.

He called his grandfather over and told him not to sever the connection between his martial soul and plant his carrot martial soul in the soil! Grandpa Jack initially felt that his grandson's actions were interfering with his farming, but seeing his grandson's excited expression, he cooperated!

Grandpa's martial soul had no soul power. At first, he could only rely on the characteristics of his plant-type martial soul to slowly absorb nutrients from the soil. Under Jerry's mental observation, the absorption was very slow at first, but then it became faster and faster. On the fifteenth day, he finally absorbed enough soul power that even old Jack could feel!

"Grandpa, you have soul power now! You're no longer a useless martial soul; you can cultivate now!"

Grandpa Jack was stunned. A useless martial soul could be cultivated. In his eyes, this was something only a god could do. His grandson had actually done it!

Jerry taught Grandpa Jack the meditation method, and then he was told to practice it secretly and not to pass it on to others. This world is very dark. If the Imperial Sect Spirit Hall knew that Jerry could cultivate a plant-type useless spirit and increase the cultivation speed, it would greatly change the status of plant-type spirit masters. Therefore, they would keep such secrets to themselves. Jerry doesn't have strong strength, so Jerry will probably be locked up for the rest of his life to investigate spirits!

Possessing secrets without real strength is still very dangerous in the Douluo Continent! Jerry knows that true strength comes from within. He's considered increasing his power, but currently, it seems the only way is to increase his soul power. While increasing soul power does boost strength, strength isn't just about soul power; it also includes soul skills, combat techniques, and battle experience! These are things that can't be improved in the village!

It seems that my idea of ​​staying in the village and improving my strength is seriously flawed. Since I can't change that now, I should quickly increase my soul power!

Time flies like an arrow, and three and a half years have passed in the blink of an eye. Jerry and Xiao Wu are both twelve years old now. Xiao Wu is currently a level 34 Soul Master, while in the original story she was only level 29. With the help of Jerry and Carrot, she has increased her level by 5 levels.

Jerry was only level 32, and Xiao Wu successfully overtook him. Xiao Wu was quite smug about it! Seeing this, Jerry was so angry that he almost decided not to give Xiao Wu carrots anymore!

Jerry's second soul skill absorbed 999-year-old Blue Silver Grass! The soul skill it provided to Jerry was life restoration! As expected, Blue Silver Grass has powerful vitality, and the soul power it provides is also healing!

When the wild chrysanthemum was cultivated for three hundred years, it was given to Grandpa Jack to absorb. It was a detoxifying soul power, not very strong, but enough. Usually, when villagers were bitten by poisonous insects, they would eat Grandpa Jack's carrot and be cured immediately! Grandpa Jack was also very satisfied with his soul skill. Because of his old age, the vitality of his martial soul decreased, so even though Jerry provided plenty of fertilizer, after several years of cultivation, Grandpa Jack's cultivation became very, very slow after reaching level 14!

Jerry's third spirit ring was absorbed from a 999-year-old ginseng. Whether a 100-year-old spirit beast can break through to 1000 years depends on the plant's own potential. Jerry provided a lot of fertilizer, but the ginseng still didn't break through to 1000 years, and Xiao Wu didn't know why! So, he could only absorb a 999-year-old spirit ring!

Absorbing the ginseng spirit ring caused Jerry's carrot to evolve once, making it somewhat resemble ginseng. The carrot split into two branches, with the branches resembling two small hands and two small feet! If it weren't for the fact that the color hadn't changed, it would look just like ginseng!

After his martial soul evolved, Jerry felt his innate soul power had increased, roughly reaching level three. His soul power cultivation speed had greatly improved; now, his speed of absorbing soul power directly from the air was 4.68 (30% increase from the first soul ring, 20% increase from meditation, 3 x 130% x 120%, hence 4.68). His speed of absorbing soul power from the ground was also 9.36. Simultaneously, Jerry was now faster than even those with full innate soul power!

After the martial soul evolves, it provides a skill that instantly restores soul power, life force, and stamina. However, it can only restore soul masters of the same level. I tested it on Xiao Wu and she was instantly restored to full condition! I couldn't test it on higher-level soul masters.
