Cold Jade Bed Cultivation Method

"Teacher!"

Upon arriving at Papal Hall, Bibi Dong bowed to her teacher, Qian Xunji.

Qian Xunji sat on the Papal Throne without saying a word, quietly watching his disciple below.

He had originally thought this disciple was perfect, but only now did he realize that she was not as perfect as he had imagined. At the very least, there was something wrong with her head.

"I already know about your plan to elope with Yu Xiaogang. I do not agree."

After remaining silent for a long while, just as Bibi Dong began to feel increasingly oppressed and uneasy, Qian Xunji spoke. His words made Bibi Dong's expression turn deathly pale.

"Why?"

She asked instinctively. Bibi Dong did not understand why her teacher could not bless her love.

You're my teacher!

"You wanting to love him is your business, but you cannot leave Spirit Hall. You know how important you are to Spirit Hall. None of us can allow you to leave. Elope to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? Even less so."

A trace of disappointment showed on his face, but Qian Xunji had already calmed down.

If Bibi Dong had dared to think and act this way in the past, he would have flown into a rage long ago.

Even if he had to use extreme methods, he would have kept her here. Bibi Dong possessed top-tier Twin Martial Souls and was the future of Spirit Hall. Nothing could be allowed to happen to her, much less let her leave and sever her ties with them.

"I must be with Xiao Gang, no matter what price I have to pay!"

Bibi Dong was very stubborn. Since she had made her choice, she would carry it through. No one could stop her.

Yet this stubbornness only made Qian Xunji more disappointed. Even the anger he had suppressed showed signs of erupting.

Without saying anything else, he suddenly appeared before Bibi Dong and struck her forehead with his palm.

Bibi Dong had not expected her beloved teacher to attack without warning. She was completely unguarded and did not even have time to circulate her Soul Power to resist. Her head shook, and she fell unconscious.

Supporting his disciple's limp body, he handed her over to the Angel Clan Maid standing nearby.

"Do not leave any obvious flaws."

After giving the order, Qian Xunji returned to the Papal Throne and pondered the plan attached to the letter that little fellow had submitted with his report.

He had little experience with feelings and did not know how to handle such matters, but he felt that the plan was probably reliable.

That was precisely why he had followed that suggestion instead of appearing and making trouble on the spot.

After all, punishing that thoughtless disciple was secondary. The key was to make her understand reason and leave both her heart and body in Spirit Hall.

"If it really succeeds, I'll have to give that little fellow a reward."

After recalling the plan, a smile appeared on Qian Xunji's face.

This was already the second time that little fellow had rendered a great service. In particular, the Instinct Stimulation Cultivation Method he had offered the first time was extremely useful and had greatly benefited Qian Xunji's cultivation. After cultivating with it for the past few years, his Soul Power had already formed an instinctive circulation, equivalent to cultivating the Meditation Method twenty-four hours a day.

With this accumulation, he felt that even the bottleneck to Level 96 had loosened slightly.

It might seem like only a tiny loosening, but one had to understand that after Level 95, every level was a natural chasm that was extremely difficult to cross. Some even required a century of accumulation before they could break through.

Yet because that method had doubled the speed of his Soul Power cultivation, he would definitely be able to attempt breaking through that natural chasm in a few years.

Precisely because of this cultivation method, he had bestowed a Ten-Thousand Year Head Soul Bone from Spirit Hall's collection, as well as one of the Angel Clan's excellent Meditation Methods focused on cultivating Spiritual power.

As a superior, clearly distinguishing rewards and punishments was an essential quality. Even if that little fellow's aptitude was incredibly poor and he would achieve nothing in the future, as long as he rendered sufficient service and made enough contributions, Qian Xunji would still grant him rewards.

This time would be no different.

Thinking of this, Qian Xunji rose and left, personally heading to Spirit Hall's treasury to make his selection.

The reason he had to go personally was mainly for secrecy. He could not let anyone know that he had taken out a Soul Bone. Otherwise, if someone with ulterior motives investigated, they might very well trace it back to that little fellow.

If it was discovered that the little fellow possessed a Soul Bone, he would be in great danger. After all, that little fellow was far too weak.

That little fellow had a very clever mind and might come up with more good ideas in the future. It would be too unfortunate if he died.

After choosing something suitable for that little fellow, Qian Xunji did not return to Papal Hall. Instead, he headed to the Angel Clan's territory.

He did not want to see that troublesome Wicked Disciple right now. He would go see the little ones in the clan and change his mood.

"Clan Leader!"

Upon arriving at the Angel Clan's territory, all the Angel Clan Members respectfully saluted Qian Xunji when they saw him.

Others had to address him as Pope, but they did not, because they were family.

Qian Xunji also smiled and nodded to all the clan members. These were his true people, so there was naturally no need to put on an imposing act.

He soon arrived at the Forbidden Ground deep within the Angel Clan's territory. It was a dark, frigid cavern that had once been used for clan members who had made mistakes to reflect on themselves.

After obtaining the Instinct Stimulation Cultivation Method offered by that little fellow, however, he had ordered the place to be remodeled. It had become even darker and colder, with an Evil, fallen aura. Quite a few Fallen Soul Masters had been used as materials for the transformation.

When he reached the depths of the Forbidden Ground, he nodded to the clan elders guarding the place and gazed at the little ones with bitter expressions.

They had all been sent here to cultivate after awakening their Martial Souls at the age of six. They were not cultivating Soul Power itself, but the Meditation Method. By relying on this environment, which opposed the Angel Martial Soul, to stimulate their Soul Power into constant circulation, they would eventually form an instinct.

The results were indeed excellent. This environment, which opposed the attributes of the Angel Martial Soul and Soul Power, was highly stimulating. Although it could not increase their Soul Power, it made their bodies, minds, Martial Souls, and instincts circulate Soul Power and adapt to it. Over time, they could circulate it autonomously.

To put it simply, it was a kind of simulated environment, only reversed.

The simulated environments in the Soul Master World were currently all compatible with the attributes of a Soul Master's Martial Soul. The higher the Compatibility, the more active the Martial Soul and Soul Power became, greatly improving cultivation efficiency until reaching the limits of one's Martial Soul and Soul Power.

The cultivation method they were using now was the opposite. It was completely contrary to the attributes of a Soul Master's Martial Soul and Soul Power. Although it could not increase Soul Power, it could stimulate the Martial Soul and Soul Power to the greatest extent, allowing them to eventually adapt on their own and circulate Soul Power to resist the opposing stimulation from the outside world.

It was like how some animals would naturally grow fur in winter to ward off the cold. The human body also possessed this kind of self-adapting instinct.

The principle was very simple, but no one had ever thought of it before.

However, to cultivate this method, the lower one's Soul Power Level, the better. At that time, the Martial Soul and Soul Power were at their weakest, so the required stimulation did not need to be too strong. With a high Soul Power Level, it was instead more difficult to accomplish.

Back then, he had spent a great deal of thought and time perfecting this method.

"Three people are gone!"

Qian Xunji swept his gaze over the little ones, a smile appearing on his face.

Compared with last month, there were three fewer people cultivating here this month. That proved that three people had already mastered the method. Their Soul Power could now circulate autonomously under the guidance of their bodies' instincts, equivalent to circulating Soul Power and cultivating the Meditation Method twenty-four hours a day.

Even if the efficiency of that instinctive circulation was only half that of actively circulating the Meditation Method, the cultivation period was much longer. Taken together, the results were better.

It was like how an ordinary person could perhaps run at their maximum speed for only a thousand meters before needing an entire day to recover.

But if they jogged or even walked, they could keep going for an entire day, and the distance they covered would certainly far exceed that of a sprint.

After all, humans were not Soul Tools. They became tired. Neither mentally nor physically could they keep operating and working at full capacity, much less beyond it.

This lower intensity was instead more conducive to cultivation. Taken together, its efficiency was twice that of the normal active cultivation method over the course of a day.

Twice the cultivation efficiency was astonishing. It was equivalent to doubling one's Innate Soul Power, and its value was self-evident.

After all, Soul Masters could not cultivate the Meditation Method on schedule every day. When they were away from home or entering a Soul Beast Forest to hunt for Spirit Rings, they could not devote themselves entirely to cultivating the Meditation Method. If they did, they would not even know how they died.

This method, however, was unaffected. As long as they did not use a Soul Skill, it could circulate autonomously. As a result, its efficiency was even higher.

At present, it circulated only within the Angel Clan, as the Angel Clan's secret inheritance Secret Art.

Being able to offer such a precious cultivation method without holding anything back was proof of loyalty.

However, there was still a possibility that little fellow might leak it. In a few years, he would choose a girl from the clan and have her marry into the little fellow's family, making him a member of the Angel Clan. After a hundred years, they could even reclaim that Head Soul Bone. Perfect!

"It's five people who are gone. Two more children turned six this month, awakened their Martial Souls, and were brought here."

Qian Daoliu walked over slowly, his face also filled with a smile.

In the past, he had always stayed at Douluo Hall to worship and protect the Angel Statue. After obtaining that cultivation method, he preferred staying here. In fact, he had personally overseen the remodeling of this place.

With this method as their inheritance, the Angel Clan would surely reach an unprecedented, glorious peak.

Tian Hao: The Meditation Method does involve circulating Soul Power. The original work stated this. It is simply that the circulation pattern is very simple, and it is not an original alternate setting of this book.

As for where this Instinct Stimulation Method originated from, I believe all you old hands already know.
