Zhou Qing's Plans for Future Cultivation
The human spine, excluding the sacrum, consists of 24 vertebrae: cervical, thoracic, and lumbar. These vertebrae correspond to the Twenty-Four Solar Terms based on the changing seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter.
—Start of Spring, Rain Water, Awakening of Insects, Spring Equinox, Pure Brightness, Grain Rain, Start of Summer, Grain Buds, Grain in Ear, Summer Solstice, Minor Heat, Major Heat, Start of Autumn, End of Heat, White Dew, Autumn Equinox, Cold Dew, Frost's Descent, Start of Winter, Xiao Xue, Major Snow, Winter Solstice, Minor Cold, Major Cold—
In its previous form, the "Twenty-Four Solar Terms" were a product of ancient agricultural civilization. They were a system formed by the ancient people in accordance with the agricultural seasons, by observing the movement of celestial bodies, and by recognizing the changes in seasons, climate, and phenology throughout the year.
Even in modern society, this system remains applicable.
Because this system is capable of changing over time, and is not static.
Only what is easy is not easy.
That is the reason.
The Douluo Continent also has the Four Seasons Cycle. Although the positions of the stars in the sky are different from those on Earth, this system of Twenty-Four Solar Terms still applies!
Taking Holy Soul Village as an example, although the villagers have not summarized a system similar to the Twenty-Four Solar Terms, they still go to work in the fields on specific days throughout the year.
This could involve weeding, turning over the soil, or catching insects, etc.
The farmers of the Douluo Continent also discovered patterns of planting and harvesting similar to the Twenty-Four Solar Terms based on the seasonal changes of the Douluo Continent. However, since most of them were illiterate, they could not summarize or generalize these patterns in language or writing, and could only pass on their knowledge and experience to their descendants.
but.
Since Tang San had not described the content related to the Twenty-Four Solar Terms to Zhou Qing, Zhou Qing did not say these things either. He only said, "The talent of my Blood Circulation System Martial Soul lies in the word 'circulation.' It uses the heart as the power source, blood vessels as the pathway, and blood as the transmission to form an overall circulation, which is used to strengthen, temper, and maintain the normal physiological activities of the body."
"Therefore, the range of Soul Beast I can choose from is actually quite wide. In the early stages, the role of Soul Skill does not necessarily have to be to assist in the development of the 'cycle' talent. Instead, we should focus on powerful attack power. Moreover, the attributes carried by the Soul Skill should be more diverse so as to cope with various external risks and protect the growth of our entire group."
Tang San's heart skipped a beat, and he stared at Zhou Qing in disbelief.
"Don't look at me like that."
Zhou Qing waved his hand casually, "We are all ordinary people, and someone has to choose to sacrifice and protect our growth in the open."
"Furthermore, according to my supplementary theory, the Soul Skill obtained by choosing Soul Ring can only better bring out the talent of the Martial Soul."
"As for the talent of Martial Soul, it will increase with the Soul Master's own Soul Power. In the future, I will create the corresponding Soul Skill myself."
"Besides, within our small group, Xiao Wu has a lively personality, and Romantina's personality goes beyond 'lively.' Without adding Martial Soul to that hammer, your combat power has absolutely nothing to do with the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul. In conclusion, only I can do it, and besides, I'm the eldest brother!"
This confidence touched Tang San and stirred a sense of self-reproach in his heart.
But Tang San also knew that he absolutely could not choose an offensive skill as the Second Soul Skill for Blue Silver Grass just for the sake of combat power, so—
[Looks like I need to step up my efforts and figure out the function of the Soul Tool Core Formation on that Soul Guidance Crystal as soon as possible, so I can modify and invent more powerful Soul Tool Hidden Weapon!]
[Also, there's something made for Qing Ge...]
In reality, Zhou Qing is currently only unable to enhance a single Soul Ring Skill or unleash the "circulation" talent of his Blood Circulation System Martial Soul.
Once the four Innate True Essence of Earth, Water, Wind, Fire are gathered, the skills of the first four Soul Ring may well be able to be combined together.
After all, Secondary Soul Ring Refinement is equivalent to Grafting the Soul Ring completely onto the Martial Soul, allowing it to grow together with the Martial Soul, and the skills can definitely be used simultaneously.
At that time, by circulating the Four Innate True Essences through the Innate Internal Scripture Chart, a further connection can be established with the Martial Soul, enabling the first four Soul Skill to form a cyclical effect, and also strengthening and developing the Blood Circulation System Martial Soul.
Furthermore, Zhou Qing believes that once Soul Ring can be Secondary Refinement, there is no need to focus on its single function when choosing Soul Skill.
On the contrary, by piecing together one's multiple Soul Skill like building blocks, and combining them into a whole, one can maximize the effect of the Soul Skill after the Secondary Soul Ring Refinement!
Zhou Qing had a premonition that even if Titled Douluo completed the Secondary Soul Ring Refinement, they wouldn't be able to connect all their skills into a complete cycle.
At most, one can only unleash nine Soul Skill simultaneously when Spiritual Power is sufficient.
Zhou Qing believes that the key lies not only in the ability of Soul Skill to be combined with each other, but also in whether the "gears" of the Martial Soul Master and the "gears" of the body's internal circulation can truly and perfectly "fit together" without any jamming.
If all the above conjectures are wrong, he also has another direction:
Martial Soul Evolution!
Bu Yi's transformation into Elemental Fox Martial Soul gave Zhou Qing a lot of inspiration. The only thing he needed to do was to find children whose Martial Soul hadn't yet awakened and test them when he had free time...
"Qing Ge."
Tang San interrupted Zhou Qing's thoughts.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing the sudden "burning" look in Tang San's eyes, Zhou Qing was startled, then stepped back, mimicking Romantina's gesture, and hugged her shoulders, saying in a "fearful" tone, "You wouldn't happen to be lusting after my body, would you?"
Instantly, Tang San's emotion vanished, and a dark line appeared on his forehead. "I suspect that you've picked up some of Romantina's personality traits from spending so much time with her."
"Just kidding~ This is just my personality, okay?"
Zhou Qing put his hands on his hips and chuckled, "Come on, it's almost evening, let's go to the cafeteria for dinner. My brain has been working at high speed all day, and I've used up a lot of energy, so I need to replenish it."
"Speaking of which, the human body is truly amazing. A bowl of white rice can keep an average person working for most of the day..."
Upon hearing this, Tang San looked down at his own body, a thoughtful expression on his face...
And so, seven days passed quietly in the process of learning, practicing, and researching.
At the same time.
The Star Luo Royal Academy Team also concluded its exchange with the Heaven Dou Royal Academy and prepared to return to the Star Luo Empire.
During this period, the substitute members of the Heaven Dou Royal Team would spar with Dai Weisi, Zhu Zhuyun, and others every day, but no matter what tactics they used, they would be easily defeated.
The longest I ever managed to hold the position was only ten minutes.
This dealt a blow to Yu Tianheng's confidence, and he even began to doubt whether it was due to the excellent teamwork among the Star Luo Royal Academy Team members, but rather that he, as a candidate for captain of the substitute team, simply lacked the leadership ability to unite the entire team...
