Chapter 46: Adaptation! Breakthrough to Hundred-Year Soul Power Cultivation!
After returning to the training ground, Teacher Zheng continued to review the battles.
In the afternoon, they trained their soul pets.
A day passed quickly. After a day of training, the green caterpillar was still not completely used to the mechanical meteorite armor on its body.
In fact, there was barely any progress.
It was impossible to adapt to this thing in a day or two, so Wang Che was not in a hurry.
After returning home, Wang Che let this child cultivate the Beast Origin Skill. Building the foundation at this stage was crucial.
However, after putting on the mechanical meteorite armor, even if it cultivated the Beast Origin Skill, the green caterpillar would not be able to circulate its soul power for one small cycle in half a day.
One small cycle referred to practicing a round of all the positions and absorbing soul power in the process.
It could not cultivate the Beast Origin Skill properly even after half a day, causing its cultivation level to increase very slowly.
Even if this mechanical meteorite armor could accelerate the absorption of the soul power of heaven and earth, the green caterpillar could not absorb it quickly through the Beast Origin Skill. Therefore, the speed at which its cultivation increased would not grow at all.
Instead, it would slow down.
The reason why the mechanical meteorite armor could increase cultivation speed was that it could accelerate the gathering of soul power.
However, whether a soul pet could absorb this soul power into its own was another matter.
“Hiss…”
The green caterpillar lay on the ground, feeling a little down.
It felt that after wearing the mechanical meteorite armor, it seemed to have become useless…
Now, other than basic walking and simple training, it could not seem to do anything.
Wang Che touched the little guy’s head.
The process of adapting to this abnormally powerful soul device was naturally painful.
“It’s fine.” Wang Che said.
This mechanical meteorite armor was normally worth more than a million. If it was not damaged, it would normally be used by soul pets over a hundred years in cultivation.
Only soul pets over a hundred years old had the ability to use this soul device normally.
After being damaged, the green caterpillar could use it too.
However, now that Wang Che had fixed it… it was very difficult for this little guy to wear it.
He pondered for a few seconds.
Wang Che took out the drawing board and continued to tell the child a story.
“After the green caterpillar learned the special Soul Armor Haki on that island, it grasped a powerful ability and had the hope of defeating the sea beasts. It bade farewell to the soul beasts on the island and planned to begin traveling the sea.”
“This time, it did not board a small ship but plunged into the sea.”
“After entering the sea, it discovered that it’s harder to move in the sea than on land. Not only did it have to control its breathing, but it also had to control its body. This was because the seawater had very high pressure.”
“The more it wanted to explore deep to find the treasure, the greater the pressure.”
The green caterpillar immediately sat up and listened obediently.
“The green caterpillar felt its strength decrease greatly as if it had become useless… On the first day, it even nearly drowned in the sea!”
The green caterpillar patted the ground with its tail, tears shimmering in its eyes.
It felt so connected to the story!
It was useless now.
“But it didn’t give up.”
“It’s a smart child. A few days later, it began to cultivate the Soul Armor Haki in the sea. Gradually, it discovered that practicing the few postures the Contract Soul Master had given it in the sea while executing the Soul Armor Haki could slowly reduce the pressure of the sea!”
Wang Che began to draw.
“At first, it was very difficult, but after persisting for a few days, the effect was obvious! It excitedly persevered and discovered that the more it persevered, the less pressure the sea placed on it! In the end, it could even swim in the sea for a few days before floating up to the surface.”
“Not only that, but it also encountered a few sea beasts and was able to fight them. It felt like it had some understanding of the moves of these sea beasts… Perhaps it could also learn the moves of those sea beasts?”
“But the green caterpillar was not a sea beast, how could it learn their moves?”
…
He spoke slowly.
The green caterpillar’s eyes were filled with desire and hope, wanting to continue reading the rest.
“I’ll continue the story next time.” Wang Che coughed a few times and said, “Next, you need to adapt to the mechanical meteorite armor on your body like the green caterpillar in this story. Think about how the green caterpillar in the story adapted to the pressure of the sea?”
Green caterpillar: “⊙ 0 ⊙”
It seemed to have thought of something.
It immediately started training at the side.
The immersive fairytale coupled with the illustration quickly made it enter a cultivation state.
It began to practice the Beast Origin Skill while trying to unleash the Soul Armor Haki.
Every action was slow and meticulous.
Wang Che smiled.
In reality, this would not reduce the pressure from the mechanical meteorite armor.
The mechanical meteorite armor was on its body. If it wanted to adapt, its body could only slowly do it through time.
Wang Che told the story in this way only to give it a hint in its heart to strengthen its mind and thoughts.
After adapting successfully, it would naturally believe this.
At the same time, it could also train the Soul Armor Haki.
It would be like killing two birds with one stone.
If he said it directly, the caterpillar would not believe him.
As Wang Che had expected, the green caterpillar insisted on cultivating like this a few days later. It relied on its body to slowly adapt to the mechanical meteorite armor.
Half a month later, the green caterpillar had completely adapted to the mechanical meteorite armor.
After adapting, the effects of the mechanical meteorite armor began to appear.
First of all, its cultivation speed had increased. In the first half a month, this child’s cultivation speed had decreased drastically.
After adapting, its cultivation speed soared!
Originally, its soul power cultivation could only increase by three years a day.
Before adapting, it could not even increase its soul power cultivation by a year.
After half a month, its soul power cultivation rose from 80 to 88 years.
After adapting, coupled with the Beast Origin Skill, its soul power cultivation increased by more than four years in a day!
In three days, it went from 88 to 99 years.
It could maintain this speed now!
Secondly, its physique had also increased greatly.
According to Wang Che’s estimation, it should have improved by more than half in all aspects.
With the strength of the swing of its tail, Wang Che estimated it could have a force of more than 5,000 kilograms.
With 99 years of soul power cultivation, this level of strength was greater than rare soul pets with good strength attributes.
Even if it did not activate the Soul Armor Haki, its strength would not be much inferior to the Cloud Cap Snake.
The growth effect was astonishing. Of course, after adapting, the effects of the mechanical meteorite armor would naturally decrease greatly over time.
Even so, just by quickly gathering soul power and increasing the speed of the green caterpillar’s soul power cultivation, the mechanical meteorite armor was extremely helpful.
Going from 99 years to 100 years was a bottleneck.
Breaking through to a hundred years had a certain difficulty for soul pets.
It was especially difficult for soul pets with low species potential.
For those with high potential, the difficulty of breaking through to the hundred-year level was very small.
For example, an extremely rare soul pet could cultivate beyond a hundred years smoothly.
There was no mention of a bottleneck.
Only the cultivation of a thousand years, ten thousand years, and a hundred thousand years were bottlenecks for those soul pets.
The reason was actually very simple.
Due to their low species potential, the bodies of such life forms could not absorb much soul power.
Therefore, soul pets needed external training to increase their physical fitness and break through the hundred-year threshold to absorb more soul power.
Coincidentally, the body of the green caterpillar that cultivated the Beast Origin Skill had been greatly strengthened after birth.
After the adaptive training of the mechanical meteorite armor, the threshold of a hundred years was broken by the green caterpillar almost instantly.
This bottleneck did not even last for half a day.
After breaking through to a hundred years of soul power cultivation, Wang Che began to feed the green caterpillar the Yang Crystal Milk Pine Leaves.
At the same time, it began to officially learn the soul skill—Raging Flame Strike!
Wang Che planned to go to the Wilderness Soul Earth a month later…
