Soul Meditation Method

"You and my granddaughter Qian Renxue both possess Innate Level-Twenty Full Soul Power and are protected by Deities. I'm sure you have plenty to talk about."

"Strengthening your bond will also help you jointly govern Spirit Hall in the future. What do you think?"

Su Qi cupped his hands. "I will abide by the Grand Consecrated Elder's decision."

Qian Daoliu smiled in satisfaction. "Good, child. Go back for now. If you encounter any difficulties in cultivation or need Soul Rings to advance, you may come to Worship Hall for help."

"Understood. Then, esteemed Consecrated Elders, this junior shall take his leave first."

With that, Su Qi cupped his hands to each Consecrated Elder in salute before turning and walking out of Worship Hall.

Only after he had left the entrance of Worship Hall did the seven Consecrated Elders finally breathe sighs of relief.

Even someone as powerful as Qian Daoliu could not help breaking into a cold sweat.

He was used to dealing with mortals, yet he had nearly forgotten that Su Qi was Shura God's Inheritor.

He had actually used the position of Pope to test a prodigy who might become a supreme figure in the Divine Realm.

The very thought made Qian Daoliu feel deeply ashamed, embarrassment and guilt flooding his heart.

He could only hope that his actions had not angered Shura God.

Otherwise, even Angel God might not escape being targeted and suppressed in the Divine Realm!

"Grand Consecrated Elder, one can always sense a trace of divine killing intent from that child. He is undoubtedly Shura God's Inheritor."

Golden Crocodile Worshipper sighed. "If Xiao Xue receives his help, won't no god in the Divine Realm dare bully her in the future?"

"Yes." After calming himself, Qian Daoliu pondered for a while before suggesting, "Uncle Jin, what do you think of bringing Su Qi and Xiao Xue together and arranging an engagement for them?"

"Huh?" Not only Golden Crocodile Worshipper, but the other Consecrated Elders also widened their eyes.

Qian Daoliu had previously said he wanted to arrange an engagement between Ye Fan and Qian Renxue. In the end, the Consecrated Elders had mockingly called Ye Fan an old cow eating tender grass, saying he had no shame at all.

And now he wanted to arrange an engagement between Su Qi and Qian Renxue? Wouldn't that make their Xiao Xue the old cow eating tender grass this time?

Third Offering reminded him, "Grand Consecrated Elder, Xiao Xue is nine years older than Su Qi. Isn't their age gap a little too large?"

"Their age isn't the problem," the Fourth Consecrated Elder said. "The problem is that they're a full nine years apart!"

"Fourth, are you still asleep? If you have nothing useful to say, shut up and stop talking nonsense!"

After snapping back, Golden Crocodile Worshipper looked at Qian Daoliu and said seriously, "Grand Consecrated Elder, I think your proposal is worth trying."

"First, we should find an opportunity for Xiao Xue and Su Qi to meet. Perhaps the handsome man and beautiful woman will fall for each other at first sight?"

At that, Golden Crocodile Worshipper stroked his chin with his right hand and gave a sinister grin. "As long as Xiao Xue and Su Qi have even a little affection for each other, we'll lure them into a secret room."

"Then we'll cook the raw rice into cooked rice, hehe. I'd love to hold the child born of two gods!"

Hearing this, Qian Daoliu was not angered. Instead, delight flashed through his eyes.

Back then, his son Qian Xunji had done something vile to Bibi Dong in a secret room, causing Bibi Dong to bear a grudge against the Qian Clan and the Angel Clan.

Taking that as a lesson, they only needed to first ensure that Su Qi and his granddaughter had some emotional foundation.

Furthermore, both of them were inheritors of Deities, and they could keep each other company after ascending to the Divine Realm in the future.

So, after the raw rice was cooked, perhaps they would not resent each other at all. They might even fall in love after getting married.

Then, with Shura God as her husband in the Divine Realm, his granddaughter would be able to live in peace and happiness.

And he would be able to leave her side without worry.

Thinking of how he would sacrifice himself for his granddaughter in the future, sorrow surfaced in Qian Daoliu's eyes.

The reason he had sent his granddaughter to Heaven Dou Palace to carry out the Infiltration Plan was not only to keep her away from Bibi Dong. He also had some selfish motives.

He did not want to help his granddaughter begin her Divine Trial too early, nor did he want to sacrifice himself so soon.

Because although he was over a hundred years old, he still had regrets left unresolved.

"Bo Saixi, you still haven't found the Sea God Inheritance's heir, have you? I wonder which of us will sacrifice ourselves for our descendants first."

"Tang Chen, if you aren't dead, I wonder whether I'll still have the chance to fight you before I sacrifice myself."

With a despondent sigh in his heart, Qian Daoliu helplessly closed his eyes.

Though these were all his regrets, his greatest regret was that he could not begin Angel God's Nine Trials and become Angel God.

Now, he could only have his granddaughter help him fulfill that regret.

Five days later.

Holy Son's Palace.

Su Qi asked Gui Mei for Spirit Hall's most precise Soul Power tester.

Ordinary testers could only measure a soul master's approximate Soul Power Level. Soul Power accumulated during a bottleneck could not be displayed.

The most precise tester, however, had exact markings on its surface. By infusing all of one's Soul Power into it, it could measure even decimal-level Soul Power.

In the original story, Yu Xiaogang had measured Innate Half-Level Soul Power using a similarly precise tester.

Buzz—

Su Qi tested his Soul Power, and the instrument's scale settled at Level-Twenty-Nine and a half.

He was still half a level away from the Level-Thirty bottleneck.

Generally speaking, the lower one's Soul Power Level, the faster one's Soul Power increased.

At present, both his Soul Power Level and physical condition were in the golden period for cultivation.

Coupled with the cultivation talent of Innate Level-Twenty Full Soul Power, breaking through bottlenecks was even easier.

Therefore, Su Qi believed that he would not need half a month to reach the Level-Thirty bottleneck.

Once that happened, he would compare his cultivation speed before and after Level Thirty.

Then he would decide whether to hold at the Soul Power bottleneck and gamble on the double God-Bestowed Spirit Rings rewarded by the Divine Trial.

With that thought settled, Su Qi sat cross-legged on the bed and began cultivating with the Soul Meditation Method he had created in his previous life.

Other meditation methods required one to circulate the absorbed heaven-and-earth energy through the body's meridians before converting it into Soul Power. They took countless detours and were extremely inefficient.

The Soul Meditation Method, created based on the foundation of his Soul Martial Soul from his previous life,

used the soul to drive the Martial Soul's origin to absorb heaven-and-earth energy.

There was no need for it to pass through the body's meridians.

It reached its destination in one step, making its cultivation efficiency unimaginably fast.

However, because the body did not need to participate, the cultivation process was entirely controlled by the soul.

As a result, the body could not be tempered by the absorbed heaven-and-earth energy and was extremely fragile.

Fortunately, Whale Rubber strengthened the body.

Together with the Icefire Immortal Herb's medicinal power inherent to his soul, which improved his physique,

the flaw of the Soul Meditation Method was perfectly resolved.

While cultivating Soul Power, the Soul Meditation Method also cultivated spiritual power, helping raise the chance of successfully condensing Soul Cores in the future.

In his previous life, Su Qi had relied on the Soul Meditation Method to condense Yin-Yang Complementary Twin Soul Cores immediately after breaking through to become a Titled Douluo.

Although he was the Eighth Consecrated Elder and was on good terms with the seven Consecrated Elders, Su Qi had not told them about the Soul Meditation Method in his previous life.

It was not because he was overly selfish.

It was simply because the prerequisite for using the Soul Meditation Method was being able to sense the existence of one's own soul.

Even someone as powerful as Qian Daoliu could not achieve that.

Without the support of a Soul Martial Soul, how could an ordinary mortal possibly do so?

Fortunately, the Soul Martial Soul from his previous life had become his current soul, allowing Su Qi to use the Soul Meditation Method in this life.

He had considered it before. Within all of Spirit Hall, aside from himself, the only person who could use the Soul Meditation Method was Gui Mei.

Because Gui Mei had died once, and his body was nearly that of an undead being, he could naturally wield soul power.

Gui Mei had helped him obtain his first and second Soul Rings.

He had also obtained opportunities such as Whale Rubber and the External Left Palm Bone with Gui Mei's assistance.

In the future, he could pass the Soul Meditation Method on to Gui Mei.

Helping him break through the Level-Ninety-Five bottleneck would count as repaying his kindness.
