Five Hearts Toward Heaven Cultivation Method

"Hmm?" Su You turned his head, looking at Li Da with a puzzled expression.

Behind the desk, Li Da tapped rapidly on his keyboard, and a massive transparent screen instantly appeared on the wall directly in front of the desk.

Su You was stunned for a moment. At a glance, he saw an article titled Genetic Energy Cultivation Method displayed on the screen.

The middle-aged instructor standing to the side had his mouth slightly agape, as if he wanted to say something. After hesitating for a moment, he suppressed the urge to speak, though his eyes kept scanning Su You up and down.

Li Da walked out from behind the desk with a smile and pointed at the screen, saying:

"The foundation of a warrior's strength lies in genetic energy. Your usual training is a process of subtly absorbing cosmic energy and converting it into your own genetic energy.

Once your physical fitness reaches the quasi-warrior standard, you can actively absorb cosmic energy, integrate it into every cell of your body, and transform it into your own genetic energy.

And this is the only method on Earth for cultivating genetic energy—the Five Hearts Toward Heaven Cultivation Method. Memorize it, and once you go back, you can start attempting to cultivate genetic energy."

This is supposed to be issued only after passing the quasi-warrior examination, right? Su You felt a bit of doubt in his heart, but he still immediately read the article carefully.

The few hundred words of the article were not long, and there was no need to memorize it word-for-word; the most important parts were simply the key postures of the Five Hearts Toward Heaven. After reading it twice, Su You indicated that he had already memorized it.

"Alright, hurry back. Go to the hall early on the first of next month, and make sure you give me a good performance then!" Li Da said with a smile.

"Yes, Uncle Li." Su You immediately turned and left the office. After swiping his student ID at the entrance of the Extreme Martial Arts Hall, he sprinted straight toward home.

Inside the office, as soon as Su You left, the middle-aged instructor sitting on the sofa couldn't help but say: "Old Li, the Five Hearts Toward Heaven Cultivation Method is usually only given after passing the quasi-warrior exam. Doing this doesn't follow the rules!"

"Heh." Li Da chuckled. "What's not following the rules? I'll just report it to the chief instructor in a bit."

"I know Xiao You's physical fitness very well. He was already at the quasi-warrior line last month, but the little guy didn't go to take the quasi-warrior exam because he wanted to play it safe. Otherwise, he would have become a quasi-warrior long ago."

"That's just sophistry on your part!" The middle-aged instructor shook his head with a smile. "Haha, it seems you really think highly of this kid!"

Li Da said with a smug look on his face: "Of course. I think this kid, Xiao You, can at least sign an A-level contract, maybe even a special training contract. My future contribution points for the martial arts hall will probably depend on Xiao You to earn!"

Su You took out his keys and opened the front door, unable to help himself from shouting: "Mom, I'm home."

"My son is back! Come, hurry to the kitchen and help Mom wash the vegetables first." His mother's voice came from the kitchen.

Su You couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. He hurried to the kitchen door and said quickly: "Mom, my strength has already reached the quasi-warrior standard. I'm going to take the quasi-warrior exam on the first of next month."

"Got it." Gong Yanrong paused for a moment, then quickly waved her hand. "Hurry up, wash the vegetables first."

Su You had no choice but to obediently start washing the vegetables. There was no helping it; that was his status in the family!

At dinnertime, the small dining room in the house was filled with the aroma of food.

With a click, a middle-aged man who looked nearly fifty walked in from outside. It was Su You's father, Su Yongyi.

He was actually only forty this year, and his features were quite decent, but unfortunately, his receding hairline made him look much older.

Su Yongyi hung his coat on the rack by the door, washed his hands, and came to the dining table, asking with a smile: "What's the occasion today? It's so lavish."

"Your little egg is about to become a warrior. Aren't you happy?"

Su You rolled his eyes. "Mom, stop calling me little egg. I'm already eighteen by lunar age; how embarrassing would it be if that got out!"

"You're eighteen and haven't even dated anyone, aren't you ashamed!" Gong Yanrong said with disdain.

Su You looked directly at his father, Su Yongyi, sending a look for help.

Finally, under his father's mediation, Su You quickly finished his dinner, left the house, and headed straight for his small martial arts practice room.

"Five Hearts Toward Heaven Cultivation Method."

Su You sat cross-legged on a cushion, the soles of his feet facing upward and his palms facing upward, maintaining the Five Hearts Toward Heaven posture. At the same time, he gradually began to adjust his breathing, attempting to sense cosmic energy.

The hardest part of the Five Hearts Toward Heaven Cultivation Method is the first time one senses cosmic energy. According to the article, the two most important keys are relaxation and stillness.

Su You completely relaxed himself, and his whole being became completely still, even his breathing gradually becoming weaker and weaker.

Just then, wisps of energy flowed into his body along the Baihui acupoint on the top of his head, the palms of his hands, and the soles of his feet.

Su You steadied his mind, focusing his consciousness on the five hearts, while simultaneously holding the thought of absorbing cosmic energy. Suddenly, the speed at which the five hearts absorbed cosmic energy began to surge.

"Hmm?" As soon as the cosmic energy entered his body, Su You's expression changed drastically.

He discovered that the cosmic energy pouring into his body was not merging with his cells, but was instead rushing frantically toward his brain region.

"This, how could this happen?" Su You frowned and stopped practicing the Five Hearts Toward Heaven Cultivation Method immediately.

However, the cosmic energy continued to pour into his body, and not just through the five hearts; every part of his body was now having massive amounts of cosmic energy pouring in, then rushing frantically toward his brain region.

"This cosmic energy pouring into the brain region should be a good thing... right? Could it be that I have the talent of a spirit reader?" Su You was somewhat suspicious and uncertain.

Five hours later, Su You sighed. He had been trying for quite a while in the practice room and found that whether he practiced or not, the cosmic energy was frantically rushing toward his brain region; it seemed there was no difference at all.

My memories from my past life seem to have become much clearer. Could it be that the Space-Time Administration had a change of heart and wants to give me a cheat code? Su You thought, feigning optimism.

One day, two days...

On the night of the eighth day, Su You lay on his bed with a look of despair. The cosmic energy was still pouring in from every part of his body at every moment, yet his body's cells couldn't absorb even a single bit of it.

"Xiao Qing?" Su You suddenly sat up. Over these eight days, as the cosmic energy poured into his brain region, his memory had become better and better, and most of the plot of Swallowed Star that he had read in his past life had resurfaced in his mind.

However, in that very instant, he seemed to have seen the name Tang Yongqing in the plot of Swallowed Star.

Su You pondered for a moment and quickly recalled the memories related to Tang Yongqing: "Tang Yongqing, Tang Yongyuan, Tang Cheng, Luo Hongqin, Luo Hongguo... wait, Xiao Qing is actually Luo Feng's cousin?"
