Heart at Peace, Clear Mirror Still Water, Training Plan (30 Days of Ten Thousand Words a Day Complete)

Combat ability is one aspect, but most importantly, You Chen's survival ability is always even greater than his combat ability.

It's safe to say that, unless he's completely despondent, only a god could kill him now.

Therefore, there is no longer a need for the extreme restraint and caution that was before.

After making peace with oneself, the tension in one's heart naturally eases.

You Chen felt his tranquil mind was incredibly clear and at ease.

Even though I wasn't in a state of Hyperfocus, my thinking was incredibly agile and clear. Many thoughts and ideas that floated up naturally like bubbles were instantly understood the moment they surfaced.

This feeling... is like entering a moment of Flash of Inspiration...

"Flash of Inspiration... No, this is it!"

You Chen snapped back to his senses and exclaimed in surprise, trying to amplify and stabilize this state through Flash of Inspiration. However, the moment he had this thought, his mental state inevitably retreated from this ethereal and clear state.

'It's over...'

You Chen felt a little regretful, but also somewhat relieved.

It's obvious that with such a utilitarian mindset, one can never reach the state of "Heart of Clear Mirror Still Water".

You Chen clenched his fist slightly.

Heart of Clear Mirror Still Water... This is precisely the necessary condition in the original Yu-Gi-Oh!! anime for Yusei Fudo to allow Stardust Dragon to evolve into Meteor Dragon.

"I never expected that I would stumble upon that realm under such circumstances and by sheer chance," You Chen sighed.

However, in this real yet fantastical world, can Stardust Dragon still evolve simply by relying on this spiritual realm?

You Chen was not in a hurry.

Once you've reached the first place, you'll reach the second. Now that he's already touched upon the very essence of the Heart of Clear Mirror Still Water, with his talent, he'll one day be able to truly step into that realm.

He has that kind of confidence.

In the cultivation of spiritual realm, sometimes taking a detour is the real shortcut; one cannot be impatient.

You Chen quickly resumed his previous reflections.

As can be seen from the previous battles, his biggest deficiency right now is... his control over the Stardust Power.

This power, formed by the perfect fusion of three elements, is comparable in strength to the legendary ultimate power.

Even without having as many cheat codes as You Chen, simply mastering this ultimate power is enough to threaten Titled Douluo at the Soul Sage stage.

In You Chen's hands, this power is even more terrifying, capable of directly threatening Super Douluo.

Because of its terrifying power, You Chen didn't dare to use it easily in previous battles.

After all, the people he was fighting against were people he didn't really intend to kill.

The only time it was used was to crush Qian Renxue's weapon Soul Skill.

Through this single use, You Chen was able to further confirm some of the characteristics of Stardust Power.

First, there is "purification." Just as Qian Renxue's Angel Holy Power and Angel Domain can purify and dissolve the enemy's Soul Power, You Chen's Stardust Power has a similar effect.

However, compared to the relatively gentle coverage and dissolution of Angel Holy Power like a tide, the Stardust Power of You Chen is more domineering, cruel, and forceful.

While shattering Qian Renxue's Soul Skill, it directly eroded her in the opposite direction, inflicting severe Qian Renxue on her.

This purifying power is the power manifested primarily by the original sacred attributes of Stardust Power.

Then came the "amplification." It instantly raised the quality of You Chen's Soul Power to a level far exceeding its proper capacity.

It is this amplifying power, which complements the purifying power, that has produced such domineering might.

This amplifying power is the power manifested primarily from the original stellar attributes within the Stardust Power.

Finally, there is "speed". The most typical move using the Stardust Power is the Shooting Sonic, which is so fast that even Super Douluo cannot react.

And naturally, this speed power is the manifestation of the original wind attribute power in the Stardust Power.

Purification, amplification, and speed are perfectly combined to form the Stardust Power with ultimate power.

With You Chen's knowledge, it's not hard to judge the effects that can be generated after mastering the Stardust Power.

Combining the effects of purification and amplification can fully demonstrate the power of "healing".

The amplification effect applied to oneself can easily form an amplification-type Soul Skill.

Needless to say, the speed is also a factor. By replacing the original Self-Transformed Soul Skill with the Stardust Power and reconstructing it into a new Soul Skill, the speed of the move can be increased by several levels.

If You Chen was Super Douluo specialized in physical strength before mastering the Stardust Power, then after mastering the Stardust Power, his attribute panel returned to a hexagonal shape.

So, You Chen quickly wrote the first line on his schedule: 1. Stardust Power...

The cultivation of Stardust Power can actually be seen as the cultivation of Soul Power. If You Chen can control Stardust Power like he does with wind power now, his Soul Power control will probably reach the so-called perfect level.

After Soul Power comes mental power. You Chen had already made plans for this, and he already had a clear idea of the subsequent development of the "Soul Shocking Tactic".

So he quickly wrote the second line: 2. Mental power, Soul Shocking Tactic...

However, recalling the state of the Heart of Clear Mirror Still Water he had inadvertently entered earlier, he added a few words: Distraction Control Soul Refining Art.

After his breakthrough in mental strength, You Chen estimated that it wouldn't be long before he could naturally leap two realms, from the Five Hearts Realm to the Seven Hearts Realm.

With each additional point of focus, the demand for mental energy increases exponentially. You Chen estimates that even if his mental energy breaks through the Spirit Domain Realm and reaches the level of Divine Sense, he would only be around ten points in the realm of mental energy.

Therefore, he is not actually in a hurry in this regard.

This technique, which embodies his thoughts on spiritual power from the first half of his life, is actually quite perfect.

However, with his keen sense of smell, a genius of mental power, he could vaguely sense that the path of distraction was probably the exact opposite of the path of Heart of Clear Mirror Still Water.

That's why he added this extra entry.

Of the three elements— Essence, Qi, and Spirit, energy, and spirit—the last one is naturally the "physical body."

Physical cultivation involves the Second Soul Core condensed during the breakthrough to Titled Douluo and the sublimation of life in the You Chen Plan, which is more important than the previous two at this stage.

This is precisely why he specifically established the Chamber of Commerce and even brought in Dugu Bo to help him gain support.

The resources required to cultivate the "Godly Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength" are extremely large.

In other words, if you want to achieve a breakthrough more quickly, you need to invest a lot of resources.

If we're talking about the Douluo Continent, the source of the most cultivation resources and the most suitable for body tempering is naturally... Soul Beast.

You Chen set his sights on the huge prize of the Sea Soul Beast.

As the Chamber of Commerce developed, the resources of Soul Beast on land were gradually transferred to him, but You Chen still felt it was not enough.

Compared to the limited resources of Soul Beast on land, the total biological resources of Sea Soul Beast are more than ten times greater.

However, even after the publication of "Another Use for Whale Jelly," land-based Soul Master still lacked enthusiasm for exploring the ocean.

The biggest reason is that the ocean is dangerous.

Not only Sea Soul Beast, but also Sea Soul Master who are extremely hostile to land Soul Master.

Not to mention that behind these Sea Soul Masters and Sea Soul Beast stands Sea God Island...

Ordinary land-based Soul Master, unless they go out to sea in groups of ten or a hundred, are likely to perish at sea.

Of course, after the new uses of Whale Rubber came out, it didn't stop a large number of land-based Soul Master from going to sea.

However, these land-based Soul Master all from major sects and powerful forces.

The Sea Soul Beast resources they hunted did not enter the market; instead, they were used for their own benefit.

The most typical example is Whale Rubber.

Before the publication of "The Another Use for Whale Jelly", the Spirit Hall had already swept up the vast majority of Whale Rubber on the market, and other forces with keen senses, such as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, followed suit.

Like sharks drawn by the smell of blood, the Whale Rubber accumulated over the past few hundred or even thousands of years and scattered in the market in the Douluo Continent was completely looted.

Compared to the extreme rarity of second-level soul rings after a thousand years, ten thousand years later, during this period, almost any young Soul Master with a bit of background could possess a second-level soul ring after a thousand years. This was because people of this era used up all the Whale Rubber resources accumulated over a hundred times the past to cultivate themselves, which is why such a short-lived golden age occurred.

Given You Chen's current physical condition, using Whale Rubber to improve his physical attributes is far less cost-effective than directly consuming the Soul Beast of large, high-age Sea Soul Beast.

It's not that Whale Rubber is ineffective, but rather that You Chen's physical body has a higher resource utilization rate. Using something that others use to improve their physical attributes for cultivation is not as effective as using Soul Beast of the same price.

Therefore, You Chen doesn't care about the market for Whale Rubber. What he hopes for is that more land-based Soul Master will go to the sea and open up this blue ocean market.

Or more Sea Soul Master could come ashore.

As exchanges between land and sea increase, more marine resources will appear on land, and then... the information about the ocean will become richer.

This will make it easier for him to hunt Sea Soul Beast later and acquire Ferocious Beast Soul Ring for himself.

The ocean is vast and lacks landmarks, making it extremely time-consuming and laborious for an individual to explore and find suitable prey.

What You Chen values most is time.

Although You Chen was no longer as anxious as before after gaining insight into his own heart, he still had no intention of wasting time on such meaningless things.

If you can delegate the task to someone else, why do it yourself?

As for the specific results, You Chen could only say that we'll have to wait and see.

The third line of text has already been written.

The fourth line of text naturally leads to the cycle of Essence, Qi, and Spirit, and spirit, as well as the advance plan for the third Soul Core.

Continuing to the fifth line, You Chen's hand suddenly stopped after writing a few words.

The text that was first drafted in the fifth line was: Martial Soul Evolution.

He used the purifying Stardust Power to erase those four words, then wrote them again, and erased them again.

After several revisions, he finally put pen to paper and wrote, "Enhance the control over the power of the Martial Soul Origin, refine and improve the power of the Martial Soul Origin, and conduct research on the domain."

After much deliberation, You Chen finally established a preliminary research direction for the next stage of his Martial Soul's evolution— the Sacrifice Sanctuary.

His preferred evolutionary outcome is naturally the orthodox path from the original work, where he can evolve all the way to his ultimate form: Meteor Dragon.

Before this, he had tried to comprehend the state of "high speed" and "Heart of Clear Mirror Still Water" like Yusei Fudo.

The latter goes without saying, but for the former, we must mention the "Acceleration" Soul Bone Skill of "Wind Conquest Dragon Left Leg Bone," which You Chen had never used in previous battles.

Like the Archaeopteryx Right Arm Bone, You Chen upgraded it to the 100,000-year level and obtained the simple yet powerful Soul Skill "Acceleration".

No matter the time, speed has always been You Chen's greatest strength in battle.

Speed is undoubtedly an attribute that becomes increasingly difficult to improve as you go higher, and the marginal effect on effort and reward increases dramatically.

Without using any Soul Skill, relying solely on the enhancement of his Martial Soul and physical body, coupled with his control over wind-type power, You Chen's speed has already reached the upper-middle level of Super Douluo.

A thousand-year-old Soul Skill like the Force of Gale would hardly enhance You Chen's speed at all.

But the Starlight Avenue still has a significant effect.

Especially when used at night, You Chen is even confident that he can outrun the Limit Douluo simply by relying on his speed.

And during the Starlight Avenue period, how fast would it be if the "acceleration" were used for another 100,000 years?

At least, that's a speed that You Chen's current reaction speed and mental strength can't keep up with.

More importantly, the consumption of Soul Power is terrifying.

If Starlight Avenue is not used, it will be fine. However, if Starlight Avenue is used and acceleration Soul Skill are added, You Chen's Soul Power will drop to less than 50% within one second.

What does 50% mean?

For Soul Master with Soul Core, over 80% are in a state of "healthy green blood" Soul Power, between 50% and 80% is in a state of "yellow blood" that requires vigilance, and below 50% is naturally "red blood severely damaged" and in imminent danger.

Of course, this refers to Soul Power.

The more Soul Power you have, the more powerful your Soul Core will be. If your Soul Power drops by 50%, the restorative power of your Soul Core will be almost gone.

However, Soul Master of the old era without Soul Core didn't need to worry about so much. Their Soul Power recovery speed was always far superior to that of Soul Master with Soul Core, so they never had to consider this issue.

The Acceleration Soul Skill seems to be designed to counteract the diminishing returns of speed; the higher the speed, the more Soul Power is required.

However, considering that he can still significantly increase You Chen's current speed, it is already entirely worth the 100,000-year time limit.

It's hard to say that this isn't because You Chen absorbed the high compatibility and additional effects brought by the Wind Conquest Dragon Soul Ring.

Otherwise, even with Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone skill, it would still be somewhat heaven-defying.

But at least for now, this is a very difficult Soul Skill to use.

You Chen estimated that he would probably have to wait until he broke through to the Titled Douluo, with the total Soul Power of Titled Douluo, plus the stronger reaction speed at that time, before he could use this acceleration Soul Skill as a normal trump card.

As for now, it can only be used as an escape skill or a trump card in a desperate situation.

And how do you experience the feeling of being at high speed?

Can you experience something in just one second?!

Therefore, at this stage, You Chen's main focus regarding the Martial Soul Evolution can only be on the power of the Martial Soul Origin.

Improving control is one aspect, while directly enhancing power itself is another.

As mentioned before, there are other ways to enhance the power of Martial Soul Origin besides absorbing Soul Ring and Soul Bone.

When Soul Master's Soul Power Level is high enough and their control over the power of their Martial Soul Origin is Subtlety enough, they can independently refine and enhance the Martial Soul Origin.

However, this efficiency is far from comparable to absorbing Soul Ring, especially those Soul Rings that can greatly enhance the power of Martial Soul Origin.

In addition, the Martial Soul Evolution is not a simple process of "accumulating quantity". Without a trigger, there is a limit to the strength of your origin that you can improve on your own.

For example, with Martial Soul of Top Quality, you can gradually improve it to the limit of Top Quality through this method, but you cannot break through to the super quality.

This opportunity might be Soul Ring, an unprecedented epiphany, or a life sublimation that breaks through limits... In short, it won't be achieved so easily.

However, You Chen's purpose was not to spend a long time improving the power of his Martial Soul Origin, nor was he thinking that he could use this to Martial Soul Evolution.

He believed that with the number of Soul Ring he had left and the expected lifespan, he could push the Stardust Dragon's Martial Soul Origin power to its limit.

He wanted to better understand the changes in the Martial Soul Origin Martial Soul Evolution.

Just like before, we pursue the optimal energy ratio and the path of evolution.

However... You Chen already had a vague premonition.

This time, he will not be able to find a "Perfect Evolution Ratio," or rather... the energy combination that can achieve the Stardust Power is already the most perfect energy ratio.

But he still decided to verify it.

Only after confirming and truly rejecting one possibility can he fully commit to the next one.

The existence of this domain is one possibility he anticipated.

Originally, he was completely clueless about the abilities of the domain.

The near-zero energy consumption, coupled with the exceptionally powerful effects, clearly reveals a black box operation that he cannot comprehend at this stage.

But the word "Rule Trait" in the reward for Qian Renxue's mission suddenly gave him a lot of inspiration.

It requires only a tiny amount of energy to "start up" and "maintain," yet it produces incredibly exaggerated effects...

Is it that most of the consumption is "paid for" by other things?

Or is it that the Soul Master is not the one who achieves the effect of the domain, but merely turns the key to unlock this ability?

Perhaps only through in-depth study can one gain some understanding.

In short, having established the content of the fifth line, You Chen continued writing the sixth, seventh, and so on...

6. Transformation of the weapon spirit's true form...

7. Integration of martial arts techniques and skills...

8. Soul Skill Optimization...

With his set goals in mind, You Chen began a period of relaxed and enjoyable cultivation and exploration of the mysteries of Martial Soul.

The only drawback is...

Dugu Yan, that little girl, would often seek out his avatar You Xing, which he had left AFK in the camp, so that he would have to inject his consciousness into it from time to time to deal with it.

Later, You Chen simply summoned You Xing under the guise of teaching in seclusion, thinking that this would persuade Dugu Yan to quit.

Who knew, this woman was persistent, and she came to our door under the pretext of asking the teacher for advice...

To be honest, before Dugu Bo left, he promised to take care of Dugu Yan and told her to come to him if she had any problems.

As a result, they ended up shooting themselves in the foot.

But apart from that, everything went smoothly.
