Universal Cultivation Method Research Institute.
Su Yu arrived at the institute, scanned his identity, and entered.
"Director."
Su Yu was only fourteen, not yet fifteen.
He served as the director of the institute and was absent on the day of the institute's official establishment.
For this reason, Mirror Hongchen took great care, helping Su Yu build momentum.
A fourteen-year-old Sixth-level Soul Guide.
This information was recently updated to the public.
News of Su Yu successfully becoming a Seventh-level Soul Guide was known only to a select few and was not widely spread.
A fourteen-year-old Sixth-level Soul Guide leading a group of Fifth-level Soul Guides was more than sufficient.
Su Yu nodded, indicating for the researchers to continue their work, and went to his office.
On the desk were some newly successful paths for cultivation techniques.
Su Yu's true Soul Guide level had reached the seventh, and his understanding of energy circulation had also reached a certain maturity.
The theory of the cultivation technique was also his proposal.
At this moment, he looked at these rudimentary forms, picking out mistakes and flaws, then setting them aside.
"Meridian Circuit Diagram?"
Su Yu said in surprise.
This was a task he had previously issued, one of the projects within the institute.
Summarize and label all the core array circuit patterns involved in the human meridian map.
For the research of cultivation techniques, this is tantamount to a dictionary for learning a language.
Although not entirely comprehensive, with this distribution map, further supplementation and improvement would not be a difficult task.
...
Su Yu studied the meridian circuit diagram for five days, clearing up all the circuits within, and digesting as much as possible.
The "Clear" and "Bright" runes in his mind unknowingly became more complex.
As research deepened, his understanding of the two spells grew more profound.
As the saying goes, to understand it, you must experience it deeply.
By casting spells and adding runes, continuously feeling this clear-mindedness and myriad thoughts, his understanding of the two spells deepened.
Meanwhile, the two runes naturally continued to be perfected.
"Generally speaking, outlining runes is not this simple."
In the Sea of Spirit, Elder Yi remarked while observing Su Yu's runes.
The principle of the Rune Technique is to rearrange and outline stable structure runes from the core array patterns.
In the process of perfecting the runes, every addition of a pattern should be extremely cautious.
Even, the patterns that need adding may not necessarily be found or encountered.
However, Su Yu's runes were continually being perfected.
Even the "Congeal" and "Gather" runes reaching around six thousand years were still improving bit by bit.
"The Rune Technique subtly aligns with rules. I have a feeling that when the runes become powerful enough, it will be crucial for a Soul Master to master the power of rules.
However, with you, I prematurely verified this hypothesis.
Your comprehension is very high, and upon realization, you can leverage the connection between runes and rules to harness the power of rules in reverse to perfect the runes."
Now, most of the runes in Su Yu's Sea of Spirit were no longer just composed of Soul-guiding Device core arrays.
Many of the patterns were unconsciously outlined by Su Yu himself.
In fact, these outlined patterns provided Su Yu with considerable assistance in Soul-guiding Device research.
He also gradually perfected the functionality of the core array.
...
Mastering the tools made application considerably simpler.
After studying the meridian circuit diagram, Su Yu turned to perfect his own cultivation technique.
By now, the effect of his cultivation technique was quite evident, enhancing the concentration and cultivation efficiency of Soul Power by two to three percent more than the Advanced Meditation Technique.
The institute had models of human meridians for the convenience of technique development; with them, Su Yu's perfection of the technique was quicker.
Time passed.
After half a month,
Su Yu's cultivation technique was once again perfected, and its effectiveness increased by another two percent.
"At this point, this technique is fairly complete. It can be given a name."
Su Yu named the technique Primordial Skill.
"Primordial Skill doesn't have flashy effects but focuses on self-refinement. Reaching this point, it's hard to find significant areas for improvement.
The next step is to consider creating other techniques."
One does not need to cultivate only one technique.
Different Soul Power circulation routes represent different effects and can be modified as needed, as long as no conflicts arise.
Su Yu pondered about the development direction of the next technique.
The institute revised previous achievements within this half-month, laying them on Su Yu's desk.
After reviewing them again, planning the fundamental direction for the universal technique, he left the institute.
"Finally, there is news about the Thunderous Yanyu Vine."
Su Yu was excited.
The bone pattern research could be postponed, and there was no hurry to develop the Bone Pattern System until completing the absorption of the Fifth and Sixth Soul Rings.
Su Yu made his way to the Royal Palace Back Mountain.
"That Zhao Dezhu last time has been punished and is now responsible for making eighth-level Soul-guiding Devices without compensation in the royal forbidden land, and won't be out for ten years."
Su Yu was satisfied with the outcome for this City Lord Zhao who disliked showing off.
"You dislike others knowing you've become a Soul Douluo and an eighth-level Soul Guide, so contribute behind the scenes."
"Teacher, is the news about the Thunderous Yanyu Vine true?"
Kong Deming furrowed his brow and asked again, "Are you sure you want to absorb this Thunderous Yanyu Vine?"
It's truly not an easy thing to absorb.
The process of absorption poses significant challenges for a Soul Master.
