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

Chapter 231 Infiltration Plan: Tang San Prepares to Use Underhanded Tactics

After Tang San finished learning "Jerry's Visualization Technique", he felt that this technique was much more powerful than his own "Purple Demon Eye".

There are many restrictions on cultivating the "Purple Demon Eye". First, it can only be cultivated at sunrise each day. Second, this technique places great emphasis on talent. Third, to put it bluntly, the "Purple Demon Eye" technique is a slow and arduous one, and cultivating it takes too much time.

However, "Jerry's Visualization Method" is different; this method is a general-purpose method.

Regardless of talent, everyone can cultivate, and can cultivate at any time; it's just that those with better talent cultivate faster.

Most importantly, this technique only requires visualizing Jerry's image or statue to practice, and it also mentions that the effect of practicing is even better if you have seen what Jerry looks like in person.

Even ordinary people without soul power can cultivate spiritual power and become stronger.

Tang San has too many advantages in cultivating this technique because he is too familiar with Jerry.

They grew up together and met again on Poseidon Island, so I can say I know what Jerry looks like from childhood to adulthood.

When Tang San first started testing, his mental strength reached 8300 points, and after continuing to cultivate for several months, it increased by 10 points.

The increase was too slow. Now, after reading "Jerry's Visualization Method" and practicing it for a little while, I can feel my mental strength increasing significantly.

Now, Tang San no longer felt disgusted by the name of this cultivation technique and immediately began to cultivate it.

A week later, Tang San tested his mental strength again, and it came to 8410 points.

When Tang San received the result, he was stunned. He originally thought that the "Jerry Visualization Method" was good, but he did not expect that the cultivation effect would be even better.

If that's the case, my mental strength will reach level nine in no time.

Now, comparing "Jerry's Viewpoint" and "Purple Demon Eye", what exactly is "Purple Demon Eye"?

Moreover, Tang San felt that it would be easier to improve his mental strength first, and then learn things like alchemy.

Since I don't have the method to refine pills right now, I'll first learn how to use spiritual power.

After learning how to use mental energy, Tang San was both frustrated and relieved.

The book explains the methods of using mental power, including how to manipulate objects with mental power and three hundred ways to use mental power in daily life.

Seeing this, Tang San recalled the great battle between the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire a few years ago.

Before encountering Jerry, his Zhuge Repeating Crossbow was invincible, easily capturing several cities.

But when he encountered Jerry, all the arrows he shot were returned to him by Jerry.

So many arrows were fired back at once, and all of them hit their mark. It seems that Jerry's mental strength was quite strong at that time.

That's why Tang San was so frustrated. Right now, everyone on the continent is practicing the "Jerry Visualization Method." After their mental strength is improved, they can start practicing the art of controlling objects.

The art of manipulating objects is merely an introductory method for using mental power.

This time everyone is paying attention to mental strength. It won't be long before they reach the stage of controlling objects. What use will their hidden weapons be then? What use will their hidden weapon techniques be then?

Even if you have the best hidden weapons, if others can manipulate objects and can't even touch you, do those hidden weapons still have any killing power?

The section on the art of object manipulation describes some weapons used for object-based attacks. In terms of both appearance and power, these weapons are more practical than one's own hidden weapons.

Because most hidden weapons need to be thrown by hand, there is always a place to hold them. However, controlling objects with mental power does not require this. Moreover, when mental power is strong, objects can be controlled to change direction according to one's will.

It takes several years of dedicated practice to learn special techniques, and then use those techniques to change the direction of hidden weapons.

Thinking of this, Tang San felt heartbroken. The skills he had learned over many years, the effort and sweat he had put in, were no match for the manipulation techniques that could be learned in a short period of time.

I suddenly feel like the Spirit Hall is really a rip-off. If you have such a good thing, why can't you promote it more widely earlier?

Initially, only members of the Spirit Hall were practicing it, which is understandable, but after it was announced, could you please emphasize that?

Tang San still remembers when the Spirit Hall announced "Jerry's Visualization Method," they said that high mental strength leads to faster learning, a very simple introduction, and then it was put on the shelves in the Logistics Department.

Moreover, this name is so disgusting. Tang San obtained this book, "Jerry's Visualization Method," five years ago.

Because of the name, I didn't look at it. I was originally going to throw it away, but I felt that keeping it could motivate me, so I kept it in my storage soul tool.

Thinking of this, Tang San felt a pang of frustration. Five years, five years indeed.

If I had taken a look at it back then, I would have definitely been able to see the extraordinary nature of "Jerry's Visualization Method" with my own eyes, and I wouldn't have wasted five years of practice time.

If I had practiced the "Jerry Visualization Method" five years ago, my mental strength would definitely be at level nine now.

This name was obviously chosen by Jerry himself. Jerry has always been terrible at naming things since he was a child. My name has ruined me!

Fortunately for Tang San, there is still time to make amends.

Moreover, he obtained "Jerry's Visualization Method" and learned the art of manipulating objects.

With his familiarity with concealed weapons, he far surpassed others in his ability to manipulate objects.

Over the years, Tang San has personally crafted many hidden weapons. He took out ten thousand bone-piercing nails and used his object manipulation technique to easily control them. It seems that ten thousand nails are not his limit.

Then, using the art of manipulating objects, he combined these bone-piercing nails to attack.

Tang San instantly fell in love with the art of manipulating objects. Even though his hand speed was very fast, the number of hidden weapons he could launch was limited, and once thrown out, there was basically no chance of retrieving them if he didn't kill the opponent.

Now, using the art of manipulating objects, ten thousand bone-piercing nails can fly around in the sky at the same time, being shot out and retrieved—it couldn't be more convenient.

Moreover, Tang San grasped the essence instantly, firing hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands of bullets simultaneously, attacking left and right, front and back, attacking simultaneously from all sides, and launching continuous attacks.

The more Tang San used it, the more he felt the power of the art of controlling objects.

Moreover, Tang San felt that since he was also a blacksmith, if he could forge all the weapons from the book, their power would definitely increase significantly.

For example, there is a weapon similar to the Bone-Piercing Nail. The Bone-Piercing Nail is only sharp at one end. If you use the art of controlling objects, you need to turn it around after each attack before you can attack again.

The art of manipulating objects describes a weapon with two sharp points; after being shot, one can attack by simply retreating.

Don't underestimate this point, thinking it's just a simple difference in turning around. In a battle between experts, things change in an instant. You might lose your life just because you're a little slower in turning around than your opponent.

In addition to introducing weapons that can be used for attacking with objects, there are also some weapons that can be used for defense with objects, making it a weapon that can be used for both offense and defense.

In addition to these attack and defense methods, Tang San also read through the three hundred ways to use his daily mental energy.

Tang San also felt that the mental power was too powerful and too practical.

The art of manipulating objects can be applied to all aspects of daily life.

The simple tasks of traveling, opening and closing doors, taking things, and putting things away, and if one were to be even lazier, cooking, eating, and getting dressed, simply astonished Tang San.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Aside from cultivation, Jerry was indeed a bit lazy when he was young. Tang San thinks that the reason he was able to develop such a method was entirely because Jerry was lazy.

There are also some more advanced uses, such as picking medicinal herbs.

Previously, I needed to use special methods and special containers, but now I can collect the herbs completely by manipulating objects with my mental power.

Furthermore, after the Spirit Hall released the Complete Compendium of Herbs, it introduced the Living Things Storage Ring, which made preserving herbs even easier, essentially turning it into transplantation.

Because of his soul-guided storage ring, Tang San has been paying special attention to soul-guided devices lately.

Master Yu Xiaogang once told me that the tradition of soul tools had been severed, and the soul tools I use now are all excavated from ruins.

Moreover, after graduating from Shrek Academy, he focused solely on cultivation and never paid any attention to these matters.

Later, they were forced to this far north, a place sparsely populated, and they saw even fewer people.

Only after developing their own power did they gradually come into contact with soul tools.

Now it seems that this is not what the master described at all; soul tools are everywhere.

Furthermore, the Spirit Hall has now announced the Soul Master profession, indicating that this tradition has never been broken. The Spirit Hall has always had it, but simply kept it hidden.

Tang San would never have imagined that this Soul Master profession inheritance was something Jerry later researched and developed again.

The various soul tools he encountered made Tang San realize the value of a soul master.

This reminded Tang San of something: back then, Seagod Island was bombarded by Jerry's Soul Guidance Device.

Tang San witnessed this firsthand and was so frightened that he didn't dare to move.

Just imagine what Jerry's Soul Guidance Device looks like—the sky is filled with Soul Guidance Devices, and it's a Soul Guidance Device that can launch various energy attacks. After a series of launches, Seagod Island was directly reduced to ruins.

This memory kept replaying in Tang San's mind; it was an indelible memory.

Moreover, Jerry's maneuvering skills were witnessed on the ground; they were both offensive and defensive, and he was evenly matched with Poseidon.

Finally, Jerry also has a soul tool that even Poseidon has to defend against with all her might.

In an instant, Tang San felt that his previous manipulation techniques were no longer appealing.

However, this Soul Control Artifact Technique is not mentioned at all in the Art of Object Manipulation, which is definitely a hidden method of the Spirit Hall.

While everyone else was fighting with ordinary weapons, the Spirit Hall directly used Soul Guidance Devices.

Thinking about this, Tang San felt a chill run down his spine.

It was as if he could see himself wielding hundreds or thousands of hidden weapons, while the opponent directly unleashed a bunch of soul tools, instantly blasting his own hidden weapons to pieces, and then bombarding him.

Thinking of this, Tang San reviewed the application of the Art of Manipulating Objects again and confirmed that it did not mention Soul Control Tools at all.

This Spirit Hall is a real rip-off, it's such a damn rip-off.

Luckily, I've seen it before, otherwise I would have been scammed too.

The published information only covers the basic usage; the truly powerful methods are not mentioned at all.

The Spirit Hall really has a clever plan!

Thinking of this, Tang San almost tore the "Jerry Visualization Method" to shreds, but he held back in the end. Although it didn't have those powerful techniques, the contents were still quite good and would greatly improve him.

Immediately, Tang San sent another group of followers to infiltrate the Spirit City Academy and gave them a strict order: to study the knowledge of soul tools seriously, and even if they couldn't learn it, they had to take good notes.

Having realized the Spirit Hall's hidden methods, we had to reconsider.

Tang San decided that he should not take action until he had obtained complete information on the alchemist and the soul master.

It's better to keep things hidden and develop them first. If we overthrow the Spirit Hall so soon, these documents will inevitably be destroyed.

Moreover, advanced knowledge needs to be taught step by step, and those who can master advanced information now are all internal personnel of the Spirit Hall.

These insiders are extremely loyal to the Spirit Hall.

If they refuse to teach me even at the cost of their lives, I will still have to figure it out and study it myself even if I get the information.

That would be too time-consuming. It would be better to send people to learn these things now, so that it won't matter whether we have these internal personnel in the future.

Moreover, Tang San is quite perceptive. The more he learns about the Spirit Hall, the more he realizes that the Spirit Hall is hiding too much.

The Spirit Hall researched the matter of alchemists and soul masters six or seven years ago, but only released it now; they kept it a secret for too long.

Tang San had a feeling that the Spirit Hall definitely had many more secrets.

These secrets are the most valuable things in the Spirit Hall, and the fundamental reason why they have the confidence to release this information. Moreover, these secrets are the Spirit Hall's trump card, and they will absolutely not reveal them now.

I need to arrange for more believers to enter the Spirit Hall during this period, so they can learn as much as possible.

Moreover, it's not limited to alchemists and soul masters; we need to infiltrate other areas as well to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the Spirit Hall.

Regardless of what the Spirit Hall hasn't revealed yet, we need to focus on what has already been announced.

There's also the training room for upgrading spirit rings, the methods for making spirit rings, and so on. Tang San used to think that these were things only gods could do, but now the Spirit Hall has made them available to everyone.

The Spirit Hall's research department is truly a mysterious department, but Tang San has learned about it over time; not just anyone can enter the research department.

There are many conditions; students must go from kindergarten to primary school, then intermediate school, and finally advanced school all in Wuhun City.

Furthermore, after graduating from the advanced academy, if you want to enter the research department, you must first pass the entrance exam for the research college below.

After graduating from the research institute, students must pass another assessment before they can officially join the research department.

Everyone on the continent knows that the Spirit Hall has a research department with lots of good stuff. If you join the research department, you can become a superior person.

Tang San wanted everything, from alchemists and soul masters to the entire research department.

After overthrowing the Spirit Hall, I must also control these things myself, so that I can control the entire continent.

Many times, Tang San wondered why the Spirit Hall didn't just establish its own country.

Then they merged the two great empires of Tiandou and Xingdou, thus directly controlling the entire continent.

Tang San felt that the Spirit Hall definitely had the strength to do so, but he didn't know why they didn't do it and instead kept the two great empires and the Spirit Hall together.

Regarding this matter, Tang San thought the Spirit Hall was foolish. It would be easier to manage after unification into a single country, and since everyone would be subjects of the same empire, there would be no more wars.

The Spirit Hall is doing something different now, preserving the two great empires. Perhaps the Spirit Hall can suppress them now, but what about a hundred years later, or a thousand years later?

Without the Spirit Hall's suppression, wouldn't the two great empires be engulfed in war again?

Tang San knew that although the Pope was still in charge of the Spirit Hall, he no longer managed anything; Jerry was the one who truly managed the Spirit Hall.

Jerry didn't even see this problem; he seems to be short-sighted.

Thinking of this, Tang San revealed a sly smile.

All he needs to do now is cultivate, and then let his followers fleece the Spirit Hall, slowly infiltrating the Spirit Hall.

Ideally, these believers would be able to rise to more important positions and gain access to confidential internal information. Therefore, Tang San postponed his plan to overthrow the Spirit Hall.

A powerful force is most afraid of being destroyed from within, and Tang San's move was truly ingenious.

These believers infiltrated Martial Soul City, but they did not cause any damage. They behaved just like other ordinary people, living, studying, and cultivating in Martial Soul City.

Without special methods, it would be impossible to tell that they were spies sent by Tang San.

Jerry only knew of a faction, but not its name, that had been making some small moves in the far north. They had previously made contact with illegal researchers, but quickly disappeared.

Moreover, since they haven't damaged the mainland, it's impossible to investigate them. So we can only put it aside for now and wait for them to come out before taking them all down in one fell swoop.

Now that people in mainland China know the benefits of spiritual power, Jerry's portraits are in high demand and short supply, and every square with a Jerry statue is packed with people.

Putting aside other places, in Wuhun City alone, many people came to Jerry's door, requesting that he attend some public events and show his face more so that everyone could cultivate their spiritual power faster.

Too many people came to the door, which annoyed Jerry.

Finally, Jerry came up with a brilliant idea: shooting video tutorials. Now that we all have smartphones, we should also launch video music programs.

However, it's not yet time for everyone to freely take photos; for now, the Spirit Hall is the only authority to manage this.

A group of people were arranged to film an instructional video titled "Jerry's Visualization Method," in which Jerry himself appeared and explained it.

Moreover, the video captures Jerry very clearly, making visualization easier for practitioners.

The video link was sent to every mobile phone user that day.

Jerry in the video is clearer than in portraits or statues.

After watching the video, I found that Jerry's explanation was more thorough and easier to understand than my own.

They practiced visualization again and found that they improved very quickly, so they shared it with their friends.

Many people who didn't own mobile phones before are now eager to have one. Even ordinary people who haven't yet embarked on the path of cultivation are flocking to buy mobile phones.

Mobile phones have now become an essential product for everyone.

Of course, this video is just an appetizer; there's much more to come!
