Acting Method (Please Bookmark!!!)

Nutritional Meal?

Only after hearing Xiao Zhan's explanation did Su Wen learn that it was specially made by the academy's Food System Soul Masters. Some of the food was created using soul skills; the energy within was gentler and easier for Soul Masters to digest.

Isn't this basically the same as Old Jerry's sweet potatoes? Su Wen thought.

However, upon closer comparison, there were still some differences.

Although both allowed nutrients to be rapidly absorbed by Soul Masters, Old Jerry's sweet potatoes were restorative in nature, while the academy's Nutritional Meals were developmental in nature.

Put simply, Old Jerry's sweet potatoes were better for recovery after a Soul Master had expended a great deal of energy, whereas the academy's Nutritional Meals made it easier for Soul Masters to absorb energy after eating them, allowing them to cultivate Soul Power.

Old Jerry's Little Sweet Potatoes promoted Su Wen's cultivation not because of the Little Sweet Potatoes themselves, but because they complemented External Energy. Combined with the relationship between External Energy and Internal Energy, this created a chain reaction that enhanced his cultivation.

After trying the Nutritional Meal and sensing the dense, gentle energy within him continuously merging into his body on its own, Su Wen came to a conclusion. "With Nutritional Meals assisting me, along with Old Jerry's Little Sweet Potatoes, my cultivation speed should be about thirty percent faster than normal."

His calculations had always kept pace with his progress.

Back in New Moon Village, cultivating both Internal and External Energy along with the support of Little Sweet Potatoes had already made his cultivation fifty percent faster than conventional cultivation. Without the Little Sweet Potatoes, it had been thirty percent faster.

Now, he considered cultivating both Internal and External Energy without relying on external assistance to be normal cultivation. On that basis, the Little Sweet Potatoes and Nutritional Meals should be able to provide an additional thirty percent increase in cultivation speed.

That was the importance of resources.

Using food made by Food System Soul Masters in conjunction with cultivation could yield twice the result with half the effort.

Of course, Food System Soul Masters who possessed such soul skills were bound to be highly sought after and treated as honored guests by any faction.

"And there's also the library."

After finishing his meal, Su Wen roughly assessed the effects of the Nutritional Meal and headed toward the library.

Then, once the effects of Mimicry Cultivation were added in...

Su Wen did not even dare to imagine it.

His cultivation speed would far surpass that of Soul Masters with the same Spiritual Power and the same martial soul quality as him. The gap would be at least twofold.

If compared only to ordinary Soul Masters with martial souls of the same quality as his, the difference would be even greater.

It could be said that, with all these advantages, Su Wen's cultivation speed would not be inferior to that of any genius.

Naturally, cheaters did not count.

"Internal Energy and External Energy still need improvement. Their effects can hopefully be enhanced further, and the efficiency of Mimicry Cultivation can also be increased."

At its core, Mimicry Cultivation was merely imitation. Its underlying principles had yet to be fully utilized, and the Visualization Method Su Wen wished to develop would not merely replicate the cultivation effects of a mimicry environment.

Once he replicated a mimicry environment and freed himself from environmental constraints, the Visualization Method could continue to improve.

The environment could not be changed.

But the Visualization Method could be refined. It could go even further!

Su Wen had never relied solely on his innate talent. Instead, he constantly created new conditions and raised the upper limit of his cultivation speed.

The library.

"Hello, Teacher. I've come to cultivate in the library."

"Mm. Register your information."

After registering his information with the administrator, Su Wen began selecting a suitable place to cultivate within the library.

"In the entire library, this is still the place best suited for me." Arriving at the "Miscellaneous Books" section, Su Wen frowned.

He did not understand why his martial soul was most active here, or why his cultivation efficiency was highest here.

Still, that was fine.

"Miscellaneous books provide a greater boost to my martial soul cultivation. Then the effects of Mimicry Cultivation in the academy library will definitely be better than cultivating in the Martial Soul Holy Hall's library."

Sitting cross-legged in the spot that felt best to him, Su Wen began refining the gentle energy within his body.

"Food System Soul Masters are truly unusual. This energy is actually Heaven and Earth Origin Qi that has been converted halfway."

With his experience from the Little Sweet Potatoes, his current experience with the Nutritional Meal, and the Enhanced Perception derived from obtaining his Second Soul Skill, Su Wen had gained a preliminary understanding of the energy contained in food made by Food System martial souls.

"So-called Food System Soul Masters activate soul skills, using Heaven and Earth Origin Qi as ingredients to make food and grant it special effects."

His thoughts drifted unconsciously as he began considering and refining this new knowledge he had discovered.

"No, that's not right. Only the special soul skills of a small number of Food System Soul Masters work that way."

"Food System soul skills capable of converting Heaven and Earth Origin Qi and refining it to a certain degree are also rare. Most Food System soul skills use a Soul Master's Soul Power as their ingredient, imbuing the Soul Power with certain properties to achieve various effects."

If food created by a rare Food System soul skill that converted Heaven and Earth Origin Qi also possessed compatible properties, then it would be an exceptional soul skill capable of assisting other Soul Masters in cultivation.

Most Food System soul skills that transformed Soul Power were the norm. Though they could also produce wondrous effects, they were ultimately still lacking by comparison.

Of course, regardless of whether they possessed exceptional Food System soul skills, every Food System Soul Master was highly sought after. Su Wen was merely judging them from the standpoint of how much they could benefit other Soul Masters' cultivation.

Su Wen rapidly refined this new knowledge, reasoning through it bit by bit in a scientific manner.

"My thoughts seem to be flowing more smoothly too."

The Soul Power within Su Wen's body continued circulating. He had long since completed a full Internal Energy cycle; even while distracted by thought, he could instinctively circulate his Soul Power.

"Cultivating in a mimicry environment seems to enhance my thinking as well."

The issue was not Mimicry Cultivation itself, but the way Su Wen's Mimicry Cultivation strengthened his Book Martial Soul.

Knowledge!

Books carried knowledge, recorded knowledge, and granted access to knowledge.

Moreover, Su Wen discovered that not only did his thoughts become smoother and quicker in this state, but he could also gain cultivation buffs.

When he split off a portion of his focus to think, his cultivation actually became faster.

"Perhaps this could be considered another kind of Mimicry Cultivation."

Or, more accurately, within a Mimicry Cultivation environment, drawing as close as possible to one's Martial Soul and acting out its functions and traits was also part of Mimicry Cultivation.

"Mimicry Cultivation isn't just about the environment. It's also about adapting to the Martial Soul."

The Acting Method.

Su Wen began to experiment through thought.

He was not merely deducing new knowledge. He was testing whether the process of learning and absorbing new knowledge itself would grant him a buff.

"It does!"

He then tried simply thinking.

His knowledge did not increase, nor did it deepen, but Su Wen continued thinking without pause.

"There's some effect, but not much."

After repeated attempts, Su Wen summarized the scope of the Acting Method within Mimicry Cultivation.

"If that's the case, then it isn't good news for me."

Learning had no end, but there would always be times when Su Wen had no ideas.

He simply learned too quickly.

For the first time, he felt that learning quickly was not such a wonderful thing.

"I'll try reviewing."

Reviewing the old to discover the new.
