Drawing a Route Map of Falling Star City
After finishing his morning exercise, Zhou Qing circulated his Soul Power for one cycle, his whole body crackling and popping, and Sisi wisps of blood-red smoke appeared on his skin.
The Bloodline Power!
Zhou Qing now has a clearer understanding of this.
The key to controlling Qi and Blood lies in two words:
shock.
Therefore, making all the cells in the body vibrate is the key to controlling the Bloodline Power.
Just like Tang San forging metal with the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, the essence of this forging process is not to use that vibration to train the body, but to use the power of the vibration to make all the cells in the body vibrate, thereby generating a kind of "heat" power.
To give a simple example: friction generates heat.
However, in Bloodline Power, it involves making every cell in the body "rub" against each other.
This process does indeed generate heat, but Zhou Qing is certain that it must also include another kind of energy, an energy that can only be generated by humans who adapt to the environment of this world with the Heaven and Earth Energy.
This energy can be sensed, utilized, and controlled by Soul Master.
Only in this way can humans control the Bloodline Power.
The training effect of the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer on the human body does not essentially allow the user to control the Bloodline Power. It merely allows this Bloodline Power, generated by the vibration between cells, to actively circulate between cells, thereby strengthening the corresponding body tissues.
In short, exercise, especially appropriate physical exercise, can cause the body's cells to vibrate, thereby generating the Bloodline Power, which can instinctively circulate throughout the body's cells, thus strengthening physical fitness.
"Perhaps after some time, as my body develops, I will be able to truly take control of this Qi and Blood energy."
Zhou Qing withdrew his Soul Power and pondered to himself, "Circulating Soul Power and coordinating it with body tremors can actively trigger the Bloodline Power. This proves that there is indeed a close connection between Soul Power and the Bloodline Power. Before mastering these two powers, they need to be controlled with Spiritual Power. Perhaps the three treasures of Essence, Qi, and Spirit, qi, and spirit have a specific way of resonating with each other..."
Unfortunately, these experiments all require Zhou Qing, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Romantina to reach a certain level of strength before they can be carried out.
"Come on, Qing Ge, let's go have breakfast."
Tang San jumped down from the roof and called out to Zhou Qing.
"They're here."
Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Zhou Qing smiled and waved in response. He followed Tang San through the ancient pavilions and, led by servants in the courtyard, headed to the dining area.
You Hui and Romantina were already dining there.
Xiao Wu got up early this time, much more energetic than usual. It was clear that she had become wary after learning and sensing the existence of Titled Douluo in Falling Star City.
"Today we'll learn about the architectural layout within Falling Star City."
While drinking millet porridge, Zhou Qing gave instructions on today's main task. "If Dales really has connections with the Fallen Ones, and we eventually revealed this, to prevent him from taking desperate measures, we must figure out the road layout in Falling Star City so that we can leave more easily."
"This task is very simple. We don't need to go out and explore at all. We can just ask our new friend You Hui, right?" Xiao Wu snapped her fingers, thinking that Zhou Qing had miscalculated— You Hui is a local! How could she not know the layout of the buildings and roads in Falling Star City?
"Um, I really don't know." You Hui said weakly, then blushed and lowered her head, not daring to look at anyone else.
"Ha?"
Xiao Wu tilted her head, staring at You Hui in disbelief.
What else can You Hui do?
I wish I could crawl under the table.
Zhou Qing had actually anticipated this.
Romantina mentioned yesterday that You Hui is her old classmate, who studies at the Nuoding Academy and only returns to Falling Star City during winter and summer vacations.
In addition, the girl is somewhat introverted and probably doesn't go out much.
Therefore, apart from the streets and alleys she usually frequents, she herself is most likely unaware of the specific routes in other areas of Falling Star City.
Locals are unfamiliar with the specific layout of local buildings, roads, etc.
This kind of thing is not uncommon.
For some people, what they know best is the specific area within their own social circle, while they would never have the idea of exploring other places unless they suddenly feel like visiting them.
"You Hui, bring her back with me," Romantina suggested. "We can take this opportunity to familiarize ourselves with the general layout of Falling Star City."
"Um."
You Hui finally raised her head and looked gratefully at her best friend. "I will definitely do my best to help!"
After breakfast.
As soon as they stepped outside, they encountered Ning Rongrong, who was jogging up from a short distance away. She demanded, "Hey, Qing Zhou, what were you guys Heavenly Stems? You didn't even take me with you!"
"Well, because we made a new friend named You Hui, we felt comfortable moving into her house... You know, we're all pretty poor."
Zhou Qing casually gave a reason.
Romantina's cheeks flushed slightly as she muttered, "As expected of Zhou Qing, he can spout lies so easily, even fooling a young girl."
Ning Rongrong believed it, but she was still a little unhappy. She put her hands on her hips, pouted, and said, "Tell me next time, okay?"
This appearance—
In Zhou Qing's eyes, it was as if a close friend had a secret and was keeping it from her, which made her unhappy. But as long as she explained it to her, she would no longer hold a grudge and would happily want to play with her friend.
Tsk!
Among the six-year-old children he had met, Ning Rongrong was the only one whose mental age was closest to six, even more innocent than Qingzhu Zhu.
"Yes, my dear lady!" Zhou Qing bowed perfunctorily, then began to explain their mission for the day.
"Isn't this just shopping?"
In Ning Rongrong's mind, exploring the distribution of buildings and roads is just like touring the streets and alleys, isn't it?
Easy peasy!
The current team consists of six people: Zhou Qing, Tang San, Romantina, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, You Hui. They are divided into pairs.
Tang San and Xiao Wu formed one group, Romantina and You Hui formed another, and Zhou Qing and Ning Rongrong formed yet another. Within each group, one person was responsible for investigating the number and distribution of houses and roads, while the other was responsible for recording and drawing.
Within these three groups, the people responsible for recording and drawing are Tang San, You Hui, and Zhou Qing, respectively.
Xiao Wu and Romantina both have a "reckless" tendency. Expecting them to record and draw is less reliable than expecting the Spirit Rhyme Turtle in Holy Soul Village to be able to carry a pen and scribble.
Although Ning Rongrong is skilled in painting and writing, she has absolutely no interest in picking up a pen, clearly because she has practiced it extensively within the sect and has developed a dislike for it.
Therefore, Zhou Qing had to do it himself.
Around noon.
Zhou Qing and Ning Rongrong had already made a detailed record of the roads and buildings along the route from You Hui's house to the north gate of Falling Star City. Just as they were about to take the now-tiring Ning Rongrong to dinner, they encountered an old acquaintance from Holy Soul Village at the city gate...
