Self-Created Cultivation Technique

First, Su Mo carefully sorted through the cultivation system of Douluo Continent.

As a result, Su Mo soon discovered that the Soul Masters here basically cultivated soul power by absorbing energy through their martial souls.

Whether it was the most basic publicly available version of the Soul Power Cultivation Technique or a more advanced Soul Power Cultivation Technique, all of them absorbed external energy through the martial soul before finally converting it into one's own soul power.

So a person's bloodline, the quality of his martial soul, represented his talent.

But what if someone did not use a martial soul? What if they absorbed external energy directly through the body?

"It definitely can be done!"

"Tang San's Mysterious Heaven Skill could be cultivated before he had even awakened his martial soul. It was only because of this world's rules that he couldn't break through before awakening it!"

"In the original work, Tang San always used his Mysterious Heaven Skill to cultivate soul power. Not only could it cultivate soul power, it could even restore soul power in battle, said to be endless and unceasing!"

At this thought, Su Mo immediately grew excited.

Since Tang San could do it, then others definitely could as well.

Only after the excitement passed, Su Mo quickly fell silent again.

Because he simply did not have an internal cultivation method like the Mysterious Heaven Skill!

Su Mo irritably scratched his head. He had clearly thought of a method, but he was stuck without an internal cultivation method.

Su Mo did want to learn from the protagonists of other novels and create his own cultivation method, but how could it be that easy?

Precisely because he had practiced martial arts, Su Mo understood just how fragile the human body was. One wrong move, and he might cripple himself.

Troubled, Su Mo started scratching his ears and cheeks again.

After who knew how long, Su Mo's eyes suddenly lit up.

Su Mo had thought of another way.

Su Mo sat cross-legged in meditation, then began cultivating the Soul Power Cultivation Technique.

Only this time, Su Mo did not summon his martial soul outside his body to cultivate. Instead, he began cultivating directly.

This method of keeping the martial soul inside the body and cultivating directly was originally something only higher-level Soul Masters who had mastered the Soul Power Cultivation Technique more proficiently would use.

Because for Soul Masters who were not yet familiar with cultivation at the beginning, cultivating with the martial soul inside the body meant the physical body became an obstacle.

Although absorption was still possible, the efficiency slowed down.

After Su Mo cultivated in this way, he indeed found that his speed of absorbing external energy had slowed. The external energy first had to enter Su Mo's physical body, and only then was it absorbed by his martial soul.

But there was no frustration on Su Mo's face, because he did not care at all that his cultivation efficiency had slowed.

Instead, Su Mo began devoting himself completely to sensing the process of external energy entering his body and then reaching his martial soul.

This was a natural route for absorbing external energy!

Randomly creating a set of internal cultivation methods was beyond Su Mo's ability, and he did not dare mess around. But following this natural route was something Su Mo dared to try.

After all, the process of cultivating the original Soul Power Cultivation Technique had already proven that these routes were not dangerous!

Thus, starting that day, Su Mo was like someone trying to run before he had even learned to walk, directly placing his martial soul inside his body to cultivate.

Although he had to spend several times more time every day to achieve the same effect as before, Su Mo never tired of it.

Every day, Su Mo familiarized himself with the process of external energy entering his body, and he also began trying to directly use the human body to absorb external energy without using his martial soul.

The potential of the human body was limitless!

Su Mo did not know whether this saying from some novels in his previous life was true or not, but he hoped it was.

That way, when it came to cultivating soul power, he could directly break free from the limitations of his martial soul's talent.

His martial soul was low quality, so his cultivation was slow?

Then he would simply not use his martial soul to cultivate!

Putting aside whether Su Mo could succeed in the end, Su Mo was the only one who could think of such a method that broke the fixed notions of Soul Masters on Douluo Continent.

It seemed like only a simple change, but in this world where everything revolved around martial souls, others would never even think in this direction.

"What exactly is that damned brat doing?"

Meanwhile, Bibi Dong in the Spirit Space inside Su Mo's body, although she had not appeared outside and did not know completely what Su Mo was doing, still knew about the changes in Su Mo's cultivation.

She clearly knew that Su Mo had changed his cultivation method, causing his cultivation efficiency to drop greatly.

In Bibi Dong's view, this method was simply a waste of time.

Switching from cultivating outside the body to cultivating inside the body before reaching a certain level was just adding difficulty to one's own cultivation.

Bibi Dong could not stand this kind of time-wasting behavior.

Only, despite her anger, Bibi Dong did not go out to correct Su Mo.

Because she still had not calmed down after what happened that day!

Never before had anyone dared defy her like that.

So after discovering that Su Mo was wasting time, she simply let Su Mo do as he pleased.

In any case, even if Su Mo spent more time, he could still reach the limit of what he was able to improve each day.

Besides, Bibi Dong had also thought of something: even if Su Mo did not take Yu Xiaogang as his teacher, he would still be going to Notting Academy after some time.

As long as Su Mo studied at Notting Academy, she would still be able to stay by Yu Xiaogang's side.

That was why Bibi Dong did not continue trying to persuade Su Mo to become Yu Xiaogang's disciple.

However, Bibi Dong still had some doubts in her heart, because in her view, Su Mo was not the kind of brat who liked wasting time.

Sure enough, over the next period of time, Bibi Dong discovered that Su Mo seemed to be trying out a new method of cultivation.

"He's actually casting aside his martial soul and using his body directly to absorb external energy for cultivation?"

"How could that possibly succeed?"

After discovering Su Mo's unprecedented attempt, Bibi Dong's first reaction was that it could not possibly succeed.

Even though she had already become a god, her first thought was still that Su Mo was messing around. Cultivating Soul Power definitely required a martial soul!

"This brat is planning to find a way to break through the limits of his talent on his own!"

At the same time, Bibi Dong also understood what Su Mo had been doing during this period.

To be honest, she did admire the fact that Su Mo dared to try it himself.

It was just that she could already foresee Su Mo's ending. Back then, even she and Yu Xiaogang had spent so much time without finding a method, so she did not believe Su Mo could succeed.

Although the method Su Mo had found was very novel, she was also certain that Su Mo could not possibly succeed.

However, Bibi Dong still did not intend to remind Su Mo.

"He should be made to suffer a setback. Only then will he realize how cruel reality is!"

"Other than Xiaogang, no one can find a way to break through the limits of talent!"

As Bibi Dong thought this, she actually began to look forward to seeing Su Mo suffer a blow.

When the time came, if she stepped out to comfort Su Mo, she should be able to make him a little more obedient.
