Practicing Eight Trigrams Staff Technique, Indestructible Divine Skill (Seeking Follow-ups, Seeking Collections)
"Circle, point, seize, cut, draw, lift, deflect, flick, grip, mark, sweep, press, strike, hit."
"Does the Eight Trigrams Staff Technique really have this many variations? Aren't there only eight directions and eight gates?"
Xiao Lin practiced until his muscles ached, only to realize this simply was not something a child could train in.
"Could it be that this staff technique is suited to an ordinary wooden staff rather than my Imprisoning Dragon Staff?"
A thought flashed through Xiao Lin's mind, and he seemed to have uncovered the truth.
First of all, his Imprisoning Dragon Staff could be called indestructible, so how was he supposed to flick it?
His Imprisoning Dragon Staff did not have the elasticity of a wooden staff!
If Xiao Lin had to choose a soul ring that increased elasticity when obtaining one, he would rather not.
Setting aside the wasted slot, in a place like Douluo Continent, where force overcame everything, fiddling with such unnecessary things was putting the cart before the horse.
After considering it for a while, Xiao Lin decisively removed several techniques unsuited to the Imprisoning Dragon Staff.
After discarding several staff techniques, Xiao Lin tried practicing again.
Sure enough, not only was it far easier to complete, the moves became more concise, and even the speed of transitioning between moves increased greatly.
This matter also taught Xiao Lin a lesson: everything had to be based on reality, and he absolutely could not be blindly confident.
After practicing the Eight Trigrams Staff Technique, Xiao Lin began focusing on cultivating the Mysterious Heaven Skill.
Under Xiao Lin's Heart Separation Control, he could practice the staff technique and cultivate the Mysterious Heaven Skill at the same time, but if he wanted to study either one carefully and deeply, that was definitely impossible.
Moreover, practicing the Eight Trigrams Staff Technique was far less sustainable than cultivating the Mysterious Heaven Skill.
Xiao Lin soon sat cross-legged on the ground, calming his mind and concentrating as he focused on the changes in his Dantian.
Back when Tang San had taught Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin had already discovered why the Mysterious Heaven Skill was so powerful on Douluo Continent.
It was because the Mysterious Heaven Skill was an orthodox Xuanmen cultivation method. It could adapt to the relationship between anyone and soul power, and it could also form a Dantian within the body to store even more soul power.
At the same level, Tang San's soul power was absolutely greater and more enduring than anyone else's.
In the Future, Tang San could even rely on the Mysterious Heaven Skill to make his soul power inexhaustible.
That was the strength of the Mysterious Heaven Skill.
Yet Xiao Lin had discovered other outstanding aspects of it.
Xiao Lin found that the soul power refined by the Mysterious Heaven Skill was not as violent as his original soul power.
And once his soul power was no longer violent, it meant Xiao Lin could control it more perfectly and even create Self-Created Soul Skills.
Beyond that, Xiao Lin discovered that the Dantian cultivated through the Mysterious Heaven Skill could continue absorbing soul power without limit, compressing and solidifying it.
This would not only grant Xiao Lin soul power far beyond that of others, but also allow him to attempt the legendary Soul Core cultivation method.
As far as Xiao Lin knew, only Titled Douluo and Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts from the era of the Peerless Tang Sect could condense a Soul Core.
But with an orthodox Xuanmen cultivation method like the Mysterious Heaven Skill, one with such incredible adaptability, Xiao Lin did not think he would fail.
Not to mention that in the Future, a Little Rabbit transformed from a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast would appear by their side.
With a Test Subject and Xiao Wu, who had personally experienced it, Xiao Lin would merely need time to experiment.
Moreover, Xiao Lin had to discuss this Soul Core cultivation method with Tang San.
Tang San might not be good at much else, but his talent for martial arts was extremely strong.
As a member of the Tang Sect, Tang San also knew more about the human body's Meridians, Dantian, vital points, and so on.
With the three of them working together, Xiao Lin was even less worried about whether they could develop a Soul Core cultivation method.
However, before developing the Soul Core cultivation method, Xiao Lin still had to strengthen his control over soul power.
And when it came to control, Xiao Lin was even less worried.
With the information explosion from Xiao Lin's past life, he only needed to casually find a few methods to test, and he would eventually find a way to enhance his control over soul power.
But what Xiao Lin cared about most now was not any of that, but the changes in his soul power and the Mysterious Heaven Skill.
Perhaps because of the Imprisoning Dragon Staff or his body, Xiao Lin's soul power possessed an innate hardness.
Though it could not compare to the Imprisoning Dragon Staff's ability to destroy anything, with soul power coating his body, even a small knife could not cut through Xiao Lin's skin.
As his level increased, this ability meant Xiao Lin would not fear Tang San's Hidden Weapons at all.
But now, this soul power had also caused changes in Xiao Lin's Mysterious Heaven Skill.
The Mysterious Heaven Skill possessed the ability and adaptability to be learned by anyone. When it came to Tang San, it might make his soul power unfathomably deep.
But when it came to Xiao Lin, it became even more terrifying.
As long as Xiao Lin circulated the Mysterious Heaven Skill, soul power would continuously flow throughout his body, and it could even form a faint Indestructible Soul Power Shield.
It was equivalent to the Golden Bell Shield and Iron Shirt.
Xiao Lin called his own version of the Mysterious Heaven Skill the Indestructible Divine Skill.
The Indestructible Soul Power Shield was also Xiao Lin's Self-Created Soul Skill.
Although the current Indestructible Soul Power Shield was rather weak, and its soul power was fairly dispersed.
In real combat, Xiao Lin would definitely need other, more suitable Self-Created Soul Skills.
For example, an Ultra... Indestructible Soul Power Barrier.
It would still be cone-shaped, with the pointed tip facing forward, capable of blocking an enemy's attacks while also striking others.
Although this Self-Created Soul Skill did not provide all-around defense like the Indestructible Soul Power Shield, it had its own advantages in conserving soul power, defense, and offense.
Besides, on Douluo Continent, one had never relied on individual bravery and one-on-one duels.
At least while Xiao Lin was still weak, he needed teammates.
One was not too few, and six were not too many.
In Xiao Lin's calculations, the most suitable arrangement was still the seven-person team most commonly used in the Soul Master world.
Since Xiao Lin had decided to keep Tang San away from that useless teacher Yu Xiaogang, neither he nor Tang San would ever go to Shrek Academy.
Xiao Lin did not like that academy with its warped values to begin with.
According to Xiao Lin's plan, Heaven Dou Royal Academy would be the best choice.
Tang San could get to know Dugu Yan there, and then... obtain some Immortal Herbs.
They could also build a good relationship with Dugu Yan, then ask Dugu Bo to help them acquire high-quality soul rings.
Of course, ideally, Xiao Lin also wanted to conduct some experiments on Dugu Bo.
The Soul Core experiment was one of them.
As a Titled Douluo, Dugu Bo would not encounter any accidents while testing a Soul Core.
The Soul Core's properties would also prevent Dugu Bo's poison from acting up again. There was no harm and every benefit in it, so Xiao Lin had no reason not to do it.
Better still, they could later lead Heaven Dou Royal Academy to crush Yu Xiaogang's Shrek Academy, Spirit Hall, and the like.
More importantly, Heaven Dou Royal Academy's Three Instructors were all Soul Douluo powerhouses. They were fairly upright people, so Tang San would not become so Double Standard.
On top of that, most of Heaven Dou Royal Academy's students were nobles, and their strength was lacking.
Once Xiao Lin and the others joined Heaven Dou Royal Academy, they would inevitably receive preferential access to the academy's resources and gain quite a few benefits.
There was also Ye Lingling of Heaven Dou Royal Academy. With her Nine Heart Begonia martial soul, no matter how Xiao Lin experimented, he would not end up dead.
This would greatly strengthen Xiao Lin's research into martial souls and his exploration of soul skills.
After casually considering his future plans for a moment, Xiao Lin continued cultivating the Indestructible Divine Skill.
