An Idea for Increasing Reiatsu
After the Fourth Division's Kaidō session ended, Wang Xun returned to the temporary dormitory assigned to him by the Fourth Division.
The Seireitei and peaceful under the cover of night. In the distance, the lights of the Fourth Division Barracks were still on, and the figures of the members could be vaguely seen hurrying by.
A few days ago, Captain Unohana made a special trip to check on his learning progress and seemed quite satisfied.
Given time, Wang Xun will be able to work alongside Captain Unohana and participate in some treatment efforts.
This is clearly progressing much faster than she initially anticipated.
Wang Xun recalled the way Kiyōnosuke Yamada looked at him during the recent Kaidō lessons.
The usually serious and rigid vice-captain has been giving exceptionally detailed instructions lately.
Not only did they correct a few of his minor mistakes, but they also proactively explained the principles behind some advanced Kaidō.
"Your attitude has changed."
Wang Xun muttered to himself.
Perhaps because of the importance that Captain Unohana showed, this usually stern vice-captain gradually began to value him more.
A night breeze caressed my face, carrying the scent of herbs.
Wang Xun a deep breath, feeling the flow of Reiatsu within his body.
During this time, he was constantly traveling between the Second Division and the Fourth Division.
Training, executing missions, learning the Kaidō.
Instead, I have little time to organize my findings.
With a slight thought, Wang Xun opened the system panel, which only he could see.
A pale blue light screen unfolded before my eyes, displaying various data points clearly.
[Name: Wang Xun]
Spiritual Might: Rank 7 (Experience: 6350/12000)
Kendō: lv4 (Experience: 2760/5000)
Hakuda: lv5 (Experience: 3350/8000)
Shunpo: lv4 (Experience: 4810/5000)
Kidō: lv5 (Experience: 1210/8000)
Zanpakuto: Shackle Lotus (Shikai)
[Special Ability]
Hollowfication: lv1 (Experience: 780/1000)
Shunkō: To be unlocked
Hōgyoku (Awakening Level: 0.05%)
The progress is going fairly well.
Wang Xun's gaze swept over each piece of data.
Both the Hakuda and Kidō techniques have made encouraging progress, reaching level 5 in both.
In comparison, Kendō appears to be quite outdated.
After all, there aren't many opportunities to have surgery during this period.
But that's all easy to solve. The more important problem is Spiritual Might.
My Spiritual Might level is only seven, and my experience bar is just over halfway through.
As the foundation of Soul Reaper power, the total amount of Reiatsu directly determines the stamina in battle and the upper limit of other abilities.
His current Reiatsu is far behind the rate at which he is improving his other skills.
"The Reiatsu is increasing too slowly..."
Wang Xun frowned.
While at the Shin'ō Academy, my Spiritual Might experience increased rather slowly.
After joining the Second Division, the Reiatsu levels of the members I came into contact with on a daily basis varied greatly, and the quality of the fragments that fell from their hands was also generally poor.
His efficiency has remained stagnant, which has somewhat hindered his career advancement.
Given his current level of Kidō), his Reiatsu is indeed somewhat lacking.
Looking at the Spiritual Might levels, Wang Xun couldn't help but start daydreaming.
If Captain-Commander Yamamoto were to unleash his full Reiatsu in front of me, would the resulting fragments instantly elevate me to the Vice-Captain-level?
Of course, he was just thinking about it.
Wang Xun leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and fell into deep thought.
His recent training in the Fourth Division on the Kaidō has provided him with a new perspective.
He discovered that the number of Reiatsu Fragment dropped in the Fourth Division was significantly higher than that in the Second Division.
It's not because the team members have stronger Reiatsu, but because the healing work requires frequent movement and release of Reiatsu, resulting in a significantly higher fragment generation rate.
So, in Soul Society, where else is there a place where Reiatsu is frequently and intensely mobilized...?
A place came to Wang Xun.
The Kidō Corps.
Those team members who specialize in Kidō must practice Kidō extensively every day.
There's also barrier construction and spell research, each of which requires high-frequency, high-precision Reiatsu output.
From this perspective, their rate of producing Reiryoku Fragment might even be faster than that of the Fourth Division.
If I could visit the Kidō Corps from time to time...
This idea is very feasible.
Wang Xun remembered that Kisuke Urahara had a good relationship with the Kidō Corps.
When Amamiya Shin's soul collapsed, Urahara had taken people to seek help from the great Kidō master Tessai Tsukabishi.
Furthermore, Urahara himself possessed extremely high attainments in Kidō the way of the devil), and was quite respected among the Kidō Corps.
Perhaps that's a possible approach.
I have nothing planned for tomorrow, and it's almost time to check on the progress of the production expansion project. I'll go talk to Kisuke Urahara and see if there's any way to get things done.
Wang Xun made his decision and closed the system panel.
The following afternoon, after finishing the Second Division's routine training, Wang Xun went straight to Kisuke Urahara's office.
After learning that Kisuke Urahara was on duty inside the Maggot's Nest, Wang Xun returned to the place after a long absence.
After passing through layers of checks, he arrived at the familiar iron gate.
After the team members reported the incident, the door was opened.
Kisuke Urahara stood at the door and raised an eyebrow when he saw Wang Xun.
"Wang Xun, what a rare guest! Didn't you go to the Fourth Division today?"
"No need today. I just remembered I need to pay the remaining experimental funding, so I'm checking on the progress."
A flicker of interest crossed Kisuke Urahara's eyes.
They're practically throwing money at you? Is this some kind of good deal?
"Come on, let's talk inside."
As he walked inside, Kisuke Urahara turned back to look at Wang Xun and spoke softly.
"You came to see me not just to check on the progress, right?"
Wang Xun looked at Kisuke Urahara's inquisitive expression and slowly nodded.
"I've been participating in the Kaidō training in the Fourth Division recently, and it's going quite well. That made me wonder if I could apply that knowledge to Kidō as well."
"So I'd like to find an opportunity to visit and learn from the Kidō Corps. I wonder if Third Seat Urahara, has any connections?"
Kisuke Urahara paused, then looked at Wang Xun with great interest.
"Your idea is certainly unconventional, but the Kaidō is a special branch within the Kidō, different from the Hadō, the Bakudō, and the Path of Barriers, though they are indeed somewhat related."
"I'm going to deliver a batch of improved barrier materials to the Kidō Corps in a few days. I can take you there to broaden your horizons."
"Thank you very much."
"You are welcome."
Urahara waved his hand and led Wang Xun back to his secret laboratory.
"Look, the second phase of research for that production-increasing project we collaborated on before has also been completed."
He took a folder from under the lab bench and handed it to Wang Xun.
Wang Xun took the report and quickly flipped through it.
The data is detailed and the charts are clear; Urahara's work is as professional as ever.
Then Wang Xun looked up and examined the plants and animals used for the experiments around him.
It has changed a lot since I last came here.
The plants in the distance are lush and green. I remember when I last came here, they were just seedlings, but now they are mature and laden with fruit.
Those animals also looked unusually plump, and their growth rate was significantly faster.
"The experimental results are very encouraging. These broiler chickens now grow in only half the time of ordinary chickens, and are larger in size with a shorter breeding cycle..."
As Urahara described, Wang Xun's gaze swept across the small experimental field.
In the center of the cave, a small pool about two meters square had appeared out of nowhere, emitting steam.
Several plump chickens flapped their wings and plunged straight into the pond.
As they tumbled up and down, Wang Xun's pupils contracted slightly.
The pool was filled with floating Reiryoku Fragment.
