"My martial soul is named Aperture. It is the apertures of the human body, and also the apertures of Heaven and Earth!"

He had already sensed that the function of his martial soul was to sort out the profound mysteries of Heaven and Earth and harmonize the veins of Heaven and Earth.

The martial soul mutation was incomplete, failing to truly transform into the apertures of Heaven and Earth, but that did not hinder it from first serving as the apertures of his own body!

My martial soul has not yet developed. For now, I shall nourish it using the cultivation method of a Body Martial Soul, and walk the path of the Heaven and Earth Aperture when the time comes!

At this moment, Su Fan's gaze was brighter than ever before.

Having determined his cultivation direction, Su Fan also began his experimentation.

He circulated his Soul Power, and according to his personal perception, materialized his martial soul at the nodes where the Soul Power flowed within his meridians.

As the apertures condensed, his Soul Power circulation accelerated drastically, and Su Fan even felt that he could control the circulation of his Soul Power more conveniently by regulating the operation of the apertures.

First, learn the meditation technique.

Opening his eyes, Su Fan did not make any redundant attempts. He went out of the room, found Da Ming, and learned the meditation technique.

Whether it was because his spiritual power as a transmigrator was strong, he grasped the meditation technique on the spot.

After practicing the meditation technique a few more times and running his Soul Power through his meridians for a few cycles, Su Fan roughly figured out the locations of his own meridians.

He condensed his martial soul at several key nodes.

The Aperture Martial Soul could indeed condense multiple ones simultaneously.

It was just that Su Fan did not master the skill of multitasking, so he did not succeed at the first attempt.

Fortunately, this did not require any complex operations; it was just materializing the martial soul at multiple locations simultaneously, not performing different operations.

Condense one aperture first, then condense the second.

Condensing the apertures one by one, Su Fan could ultimately only maintain the existence of nine apertures at the same time.

The speed of meditation has clearly accelerated.

Su Fan discovered this, and his drive for cultivation became even stronger.

Pity that no matter how he tried, he could not maintain ten apertures simultaneously while running the meditation technique once.

Even if he temporarily condensed the tenth aperture, he could not maintain it for long.

No rush.

Su Fan quickly found a solution.

The cultivation system of Douluo Continent was too backward; there were simply no steps to unearth or condense apertures within the circulation of Soul Power.

However, Su Fan could develop this step himself.

I have an Aperture Martial Soul, so I should be able to pioneer the Aperture Method!

Thinking is doing.

Presently, Su Fan was using his martial soul materialized in the meridians to drive the circulation of Soul Power, and in reality, these apertures were all illusory.

At this moment, he was going to solidify them.

The sun rises and the moon sets.

In the blink of an eye, a month had already passed.

Finally completely solidified one aperture!

Su Fan opened his eyes, a trace of exhaustion flashing through them.

It took him a full month to condense the first aperture.

Using his martial soul as a template at all times to guide the circulation of Soul Power, and spending a month's time, the aperture in the palm of Su Fan's right hand was only successfully condensed at this moment.

Without needing Su Fan to release his martial soul, this aperture existed permanently.

It even operated spontaneously, pushing Su Fan's Soul Power to flow forward.

This was an aperture: sorting out the network of Soul Power and propelling the flow of Soul Power.

Translated to the external world of Heaven and Earth, it would be sorting out the veins of Heaven and Earth and propelling the circulation of primordial energy.

Continue condensing!

Although it took a month to condense just one aperture, Su Fan did not feel bored at all; instead, he was brimming with enthusiasm.

Time flowed on.

Another month later.

The second aperture was condensed, and this time he condensed it in the palm of his left hand.

Concurrently, his Soul Power also broke through, reaching level two.

In the blink of an eye, a year and a half had passed since Su Fan awakened his martial soul, and his Soul Power had also reached level nine.

Correct, level nine!

And it was not a newly broken-through level nine, but he had already stayed at level nine for two and a half months.

Right after awakening his martial soul, it took him two months to rise from level one to level two. Afterwards, he utilized the apertures to propel the circulation of Soul Power, and his cultivation speed far exceeded the speed a congenital level-one soul master ought to have, ultimately achieving an accomplishment that all congenital level-one soul masters would never dare to imagine.

One and a half years, from level one to level nine.

No!

A flash of firmness crossed Su Fan's eyes.

After tonight, I will have gone from level one to breaking through to level ten in a year and a half!

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Su Fan held a strong premonition in his heart.

Successfully condensing this ninth aperture, I might be able to break through to level ten on the spot!

Indeed, although the speed of Soul Power cultivation had stabilized, basically taking two months per level.

Yet Su Fan's aperture condensation grew increasingly slower.

At first it was one aperture a month, and subsequently it took two or even three months to condense a single aperture.

Fortunately, the apertures' bonus to Soul Power cultivation kept up.

Closing his eyes, Su Fan concentrated on the meditation technique.

He withdrew the martial soul he had materialized at the other nodes, leaving only the materialization of his martial soul at the ninth aperture.

Circulating his Soul Power with all his might.

Bit by bit, he frantically tempered this single node.

The surrounding meridians had long since grown accustomed to such scouring, as if there ought to be a hub here all along—an aperture used to store and propel the circulation of Soul Power!

Under the influence of Su Fan's martial soul, this node also faintly took on a spatial attribute.

Bang!

With a slight hum, Su Fan's mind trembled violently.

The next moment, he felt the circulation of Soul Power within his body suddenly accelerate, and the total amount of Soul Power was also rapidly accumulating.

During this process, Su Fan once again materialized his martial soul at the positions where he had just withdrawn it.

The nine materialized martial souls and the nine condensed apertures exerted force in unison.

Boom!

Level ten!

Su Fan opened his eyes, a sharp gleam flashing through them.

As the sharp gleam receded, there was a clear sense of trance in his eyes.

Just like that, level ten...

Ha, hahahaha, it is not that difficult either!

Closing his eyes to sense himself, Su Fan's astonishment had yet to cease.

Whether it was because the condensation of the apertures had reached a certain degree, at this moment, as he looked inward at himself, the individual apertures seemed to transform into bright lamps, illuminating the meridians within his body.

In the past, Su Fan could also vaguely look inward to a certain extent, but he definitely could not achieve an all-encompassing view of every minute meridian.

At this moment, although Su Fan still could not do that either, within the center of the region illuminated by those nine bright lamps, those minute meridians had nowhere to hide.

Aside from that, Su Fan could feel that the nine apertures linked up, fitting with the meridians and connecting with the Soul Power, vaguely forming an integral whole.

Mobilizing the nine apertures was just like mobilizing Soul Power; it had completely become an instinct.

This allowed him not to expend extra energy maintaining these nine apertures.

To put it more intuitively, he was able to condense an additional nine martial souls at other nodes.

Lighting up the internal apertures one by one, Su Fan's mind surged with emotion.

Covered by the nine bright points of light, one point of light after another emerged. Those were the illusory apertures he had materialized within his body using his martial soul, totaling twenty-seven in all.

The illumination range of the illusory apertures was not large, but they also linked with Su Fan's nine apertures, illuminating a certain region.

Driven at full strength by a total of twenty-seven apertures, Su Fan felt that his Soul Power was like a surging, great river, rolling endlessly.

Within his meridians, a long river seemed to roar, scouring every minute part of the meridians.
