Chapter 1: Meridians (Seeking Collection, Recommendation, and Investment)

"Brat, you need to show some spirit. If you don't awaken with soul power, Shrek Academy won't accept a student like you."

Flandre looked at the child in front of him, whose words were harsh but couldn't hide his affection.

"Principal, let's begin."

The child, still a bit chubby, said seriously, feeling a bit nervous about the upcoming soul power awakening.

The child's name is Gu Yi, who has been in this world for six years. There was nothing extraordinary; he woke up to find himself lying in a forest, his body transformed into that of a baby.

Fortunately, he was picked up by Flandre, and he has been at Shrek Academy for six years.

During this time, he didn't discover any special abilities. The great god of reincarnation only brought him here but didn't leave him anything to protect himself, perhaps out of forgetfulness.

In any case, he spent six uneventful years, and now it was finally the moment that would decide his fate.

Flandre summoned his cat-owl soul power, channeling soul power into the six gems on the ground. A faint light enveloped Gu Yi, and golden light points surged into his body.

Gu Yi could feel a kind of energy flowing through his body. Before he could fully experience it, he heard Flandre's stern voice, "Extend your right hand."

After waiting for a long time, the golden light faded, and Flandre saw no changes.

No soul power? How could this be?

In all the years of the Douluo Continent, no one has ever awakened without soul power; there must be a problem somewhere.

"Brat, do you feel anything?"

Hearing Flandre's voice, Gu Yi retracted his hand and said, "Don't worry, Principal, I have awakened my soul power."

Awakened soul power? Why didn't I see it? Did you eat the soul power mark?

"Brat, what's going on? This is no time for jokes."

Flandre became unusually serious.

Soul power is a lifelong matter and cannot have any mistakes.

"Really, but my soul power is neither a tool soul power nor a beast soul power."

Gu Yi looked at the meridians in his body, which were glowing white. He had awakened his own body soul power, the meridians.

Gu Yi's words left the famous four-eyed cat-owl, the legendary flying horn, stunned. Are there soul powers other than tool and beast soul powers in this world?

Forgive his lack of knowledge.

"Explain clearly."

Seeing Flandre's increasingly stern face, Gu Yi gathered his thoughts and explained, "My soul power is the meridians in my body. Meridians do not belong to tools or any beasts, so I said it's neither a tool soul power nor a beast soul power."

Flandre's face became even more serious. He had never heard of such an absurd soul power.

Meridians can actually be a soul power.

Flandre thought of Yu Xiaogang, who might understand what was happening.

"Let's put the soul power aside for now and test if you have soul power."

Flandre no longer dwelled on the soul power issue. If there was no soul power, everything would be over.

Gu Yi placed his hand on the blue crystal ball in Flandre's hand. After awakening his body soul power, he felt the presence of soul power, but he didn't know how much.

After a moment, Gu Yi felt the soul power in his body being drawn to the crystal ball.

He has soul power.

Flandre's heart, which had been on edge, finally relaxed. Having soul power means he can cultivate and is no longer an ordinary person.

After the soul power in his body was depleted, the crystal ball lit up halfway.

"Innate soul power level six."

Flandre's voice was somewhat surprised. Level six is not low. Even if he's not a genius, he has average talent.

There are very few people in the world who can awaken soul power, and even fewer who can exceed level five.

Now there's no need to worry about this brat.

Gu Yi looked at the crystal ball, which was lit up halfway, feeling a bit disappointed.

He had been fantasizing about awakening innate full soul power, but reality gave him a hard slap.

He's not Tang San, who could cultivate the Xuantian Skill from a young age.

Awakening soul power is already a stroke of luck.

Wait!

Gu Yi suddenly realized that his soul power was the meridians, and not just a part of his body, but his entire body.

Perhaps he could create his own internal cultivation method.

"Brat, you've already seen the meditation method in the study. Cultivate well and strive to reach level ten as soon as possible."

Flandre picked up the gems and the blue crystal ball, gave a brief instruction, and hurriedly left.

Although Flandre didn't say what he was going to do, Gu Yi, who had lived with him for six years, understood that he was going to find out the origin of his soul power.

Gu Yi sat on the bed and began meditating skillfully.

Previously, he had tried to meditate early to increase his soul power, but it was ineffective.

However, this also honed his patience.

After awakening his soul power, Gu Yi clearly felt the barrier between him and the world breaking down, allowing him to sense the soul power in the world.

As he began meditating, a thread of soul power flowed through his meridians and gathered in his lower abdomen.

After an hour, Gu Yi got up and rubbed his stiff legs, feeling dissatisfied with the slow increase in soul power.

At this rate, it would take four to five months to advance one level.

Wouldn't it take two years to reach level ten?

After stretching his legs, Gu Yi sat down again, ready to study internal cultivation methods.

His soul power being the meridians made his meridians more resilient and easier to detect changes, which was crucial for developing his own internal cultivation method.

If anything went wrong, he could immediately stop.

In this regard, many people who died while creating cultivation methods would be envious.

Of course, he didn't dare to channel soul power into too important meridians, as any mistake could be fatal.

In his previous life, he had heard some theories about meridians, which involve a cycle of circulation.

Blood flows from the heart to the body and back to the heart, providing vitality to the body.

Since blood works this way, soul power might also follow this principle.

Gu Yi channeled soul power through his meridians, starting from his lower abdomen, through his left hand, left foot, right hand, right foot, and back to his lower abdomen.

After one cycle, Gu Yi found that his soul power had increased slightly.

This made him very happy, as he had successfully created an internal cultivation method, albeit a very rudimentary one, without any branches, just a random cycle.

This speed might not even match meditation.

However, this gave Gu Yi hope. With his unique soul power, he could indeed create an internal cultivation method.

Although it's rudimentary now, he believes that one day, the internal cultivation method he creates will surpass the Xuantian Skill.

Gu Yi has this confidence.
