First Skill

The Holy Fantasy Demon Ape. This was a Star Dou Great Forest-level spiritual attribute soul beast that had been killed by Bibi Dong and had dropped its spiritual attribute skull and later obtained by Tang San.

Unexpectedly, ten thousand years later, there is still soul had been preserved and transferred to the Spirit Tower.

Bai Xu looked at the purple ball in front of him with great satisfaction in his eyes.

Thousand-year souls could provide up to three soul rings. If they were all spiritual power-enhancing soul skills, it would be really profitable.

Bai Xu closed his eyes and silently entered a meditative state. The fusion had officially begun.

The fusion of thousand-year-old souls was indeed somewhat laborious. It had begun to gain wisdom and instinctively resisted Bai Xu. However, when the spiritual powers of both sides were infecting each other, it was vulnerable to a blow. It was refined by Bai Xu before it could withstand even a minute.

Level 13!

"The first soul skill, mental amplification - can temporarily increase mental power, probably by fifty percent, which is expected." Bai Xu felt the thousand-year soul ring, quite satisfied. A baby of the Holy Fantasy Demon Ape also appeared, blinking and looking at Bai Xu's eyes.

There seemed to be dark and yellow energy flowing in those black eyes, which could break through the illusion and see the way forward clearly.

"Oh!" The cub danced around, celebrating new life.

Bai Xu put away the Magic Ape and focused inward. "The Secrets of Human Body Cultivation" records: the first stage of human body cultivation involves the five viscera, which store essence and energy without leakage.

Essence and energy are the secrets of human body cultivation. Generally, the human body contains essence, energy, and spirit. Although spirit is mostly stored in the brain, the heart, lungs, spleen, liver, and kidneys are all closely related to mental activities.

The five internal organs contained the spirit, blood, energy and soul.

The book recorded that practice was not a day's work. If you wanted to develop the secret power of the human body, you might not see results in a short period of time. In three, five, or ten years, the human body would discover its potential through step-by-step transformation. Its ability would be to fly into the sky and escape from the earth, and be omnipotent.

The five elements here were the first realm - referring to the five internal organs.

Kidney water, liver wood, heart fire, spleen earth, and lung metal.

You could practice in sequence, and the levels were divided into three stages: first, middle and last. However, the cultivation of the five internal organs had to be moderate. Once you reached perfection, you must not be attached to it. You had to turn to other internal organs. Otherwise, the five elements of the human body would be destroyed and the body would be out of balance. At worst, it might lead to a demonic state, or at worst, the body might explode and die.

Cultivation was very simple, breathing, meditating, working and resting, to increase people's essence and store it in the five internal organs. Of course, it was best to have the assistance of genius treasures such as spiritual energy, spiritual fruit, spiritual springs, etc., which could greatly speed up the efficiency of cultivation.

And Bai Xu was cultivating the spleen earth, which corresponded to the essence of the earth element - in popular terms, it was the vitality of the earth, also known as the mother energy of all things, which had the ability to nourish all things and strengthen the perception of the soul.

Bai Xu relaxed and sat cross-legged, put his hands naturally on his knees, palms upward, lightly closed his eyes, and the practice began.

———————— 

A young adult from the East Sea Spirit Pagoda finally got the first important disciple in his life. Although it was just teaching and not personal mentoring, he was still very interested in it.

His immediate boss personally warned him, "Leng Jiuming, you have to teach this child well. Maybe he has the ability to work at the Spirit Pagoda headquarters."

Leng Jiuming took the information and said in surprise, "Innate soul power, thousand-year-old souls and spiritual power in the Spirit Connection Realm are no less impressive than those little monsters born in Shrek."

"Well, he will enter school soon. You have to make good use of these few years. If this child becomes successful in the future, you and I will also benefit from it. His information is currently only with the sub-tower master and has not yet been sent to the Spirit Pagoda headquarters."

"Yes, I will do my best to guide him." Leng Jiuming didn't care about the benefits, he was very curious. What would such a genius child look like, and what kind of personality would he have?

Bai Xu's cultivation was undoubtedly busy. He not only had to cultivate his soul power but also develop his body. He was very tired every day. His family had little money and could not buy genius treasures for supplementation, but he was not in a hurry.

This month was an extraordinary month. Bai Tao and his wife also had good news. They originally thought that they would be unable to have children in this life, but they suddenly got an heir, which made them ecstatic. Although Bai Xu was like a adult, he was too stable and didn't show his emotions, so he usually felt a little alienated from them.

After all, there was nothing better than parent-child heirs.

Although the old couple tried their best not to show their joy in front of Bai Xu, it could not be concealed. It happened that Leng Jiuming came to visit at this time.

"Hello, I am Leng Jiuming, a level 79 soul saint, Bai Xu's instructor for the next six years." The tall and handsome man stood at the door of Bai Xu's house. The strength of the soul saint made Bai Tao and his wife, who lived at the bottom, a little dumbfounded.

"Master Leng, please come in."

"No need, today is the first day of Academy at Spirit Pagoda Academy. I'm here to pick up Bai Xu. Please let him out and we'll set off immediately."

"Okay, Little Xu! Academy has started and your teacher is here to pick you up!" Bai Tao's voice was a little trembling. As a Soul Grand master of only over 20 levels, he had never seen a soul saint at such a close distance. He was so nervous that his voice was trembling.

"Here I come!"

Bai Xu ran over and saw this handsome man with crisp and capable short hair and a standard Spirit Pagoda uniform. He looked at Bai Xu with some expectation.

"Hello, teacher!"

"Well, let's go."

"Godfather, I'm leaving. It's hard to practice, and you may rarely come back in the future. You and your godmother live a good life," Bai Xu said.

Now that Bai Tao had been promoted by two levels, he had been able to accumulate a lot of wealth. His wife Bai Ying was also pregnant. 

Their good life had just begun. However, Bai Xu had made up his mind to follow the path of spiritual practice and might rarely come back.

Bai Tao stood at the door, watching Leng Jiuming take Bai Xu away, and couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart. He had brought the child Bai Xu back just because he was sensible and not annoying. But now it seemed that being too sensible was not good. He saw things too clearly and appeared very rational. He unconsciously distanced himself from others and made it difficult to get along with him.

Bai Xu was taken to Spirit Pagoda Academy by Leng Jiuming in a few minutes. It was said to be an academy, but in fact it was more like a small part-time department under Spirit Pagoda. The students were also the children of people inside the Spirit Pagoda branch. Although their talents were not low, they were not too high either. 

Leng Jiuming said in the classroom: "I will be fully responsible for your growth in the future. I openly say, Bai Xu, you are a genius, the most genius among the people I have ever met. At the same time, you are also the closest to the ten thousand year old Spirit Ice Douluo, so the Spirit Pagoda will vigorously cultivate you. But being too talented is not a good thing. The power struggle inside the Spirit Pagoda is so rotten and dark that it is appalling. In comparison, I still recommend you to go to Shrek Academy."

Leng Jiuming was born in Shrek Academy.

Shrek's thoughts were deeply rooted, that was where the geniuses from all over the continent gathered, and where geniuses could show off their talents. 

The current Spirit Pagoda was just a machine that operated for the Qiangu Family. Everything in the tower had to serve the Qiangu Family. If nothing unexpected happened, the next tower owner would be Qiangu Zhangting, the grandson of the current tower owner Qiangu Dongfeng.

"Of course everything depends on your choice. My words are just a reference."

Bai Xu said without any emotion, "Well, can we start class now?"

Leng Jiuming glanced at Bai Xu in surprise and opened his palm. He said, "I already know your mental power level, now punch me to test how much strength you have."

Bai Xu did not hesitate, mobilized all his strength, and punched out. Leng Jiuming did not move at all.

"About a hundred kilograms!?"

"You are not born with divine power, are you?" Whose child had a hundred kilograms of power just after awakening the martial soul, and it was a spiritual martial soul, not a beast martial soul.

Bai Xu still had his calm eyes, staring straight at Leng Jiuming. After a while, Leng Jiuming said, "I will change your practice method based on your physical data, and maybe your physical training will also be strengthened. This is a period of time. There is a course schedule, you must take the basic knowledge courses on soul beasts, mecha design, mecha repair, battle armor knowledge explanation and other courses. Choose one that interests you as your side job. The rest of the time, you can move freely and wait for me to come to you. Do you have any other requests?"

"I need money to buy some spiritual fruits, spiritual grasses and other genius treasures. I want to know where I can make money." Bai Xu said.

"Making money. At your age, you don't need to eat these things yet, right? Even though they're treasures, not everything is meant for consumption."

"I know it well, teacher, just tell me how to make money quickly."

Leng Jiuming thought for a while. When it came to how to make money quickly, Battle Armour was considered a hugely profitable industry; mechas were also an option, but they required time to accumulate skills, and they did not mean that you could make money right away.

"The fastest way to cash out is the underground auction house in Eastsea City. Going to the outer sea to capture sea soul beasts for auction is a huge profit. Because of the popularity of souls and the Spirit Ascension Platform, many people have never seen real soul beasts. Therefore, those living sea soul beasts are treasured collections of some wealthy businessmen."

"Since you need the treasure so much, then I will lend you some money. Here are five million federal coins, use them as you like."
