High-Level Martial Era

Chapter 39: 37 The Magical Origin Power



"Two pills a month?" Li Yuan sighed inwardly.

Basic Source Energy Essence Pills cost 100,000 Blue Star Coins/Points each, and if he were to take two, it would greatly increase his monthly budget.

"You haven't taken Source Energy Essence Pills before, have you?" Xu Bo looked at Li Yuan.

"No." Li Yuan shook his head. His family couldn't afford such precious cultivation treasures.

Families like his uncle and aunt, who could provide their children with basic vitality potions on a long-term basis, were already in the minority.

Source Energy Essence Pills? Only billionaires would dare to purchase and use them regularly.

"Then let me explain to you that Source Energy Essence Pills are essentially substitutes for High Rank Cultivation Methods," Xu Bo said. "Do you know the fundamental difference between Basic Cultivation Methods and High Rank Cultivation Methods?"

"Cultivation efficiency," said Li Yuan.

"That's the outcome, not the reason," Xu Bo said. "Basic Cultivation Methods efficiently absorb the energy produced from the food we eat, thus promoting life's progress."

Li Yuan couldn't help but nod.

The modern human being's most fundamental difference from the traditional martial arts of the past lies in the Cultivation Methods.

They are the keys to unlocking life evolution.

"But Basic Cultivation Methods have their limits," Xu Bo continued. "No matter how strong our digestive system is, we can eat ten pounds of nutritious meals a day, but can we eat a hundred pounds?"

"We can't," Li Yuan shook his head.

"Right, even with high-energy food, there will be impurities, and eating too much would be more than the body can handle," Xu Bo continued. "But for a powerful Martial Artist, not to mention pushing the body to evolve further, even to maintain the body's state requires massive energy consumption."

"It's like an electric car, the more powerful it is, the more electricity it consumes."

"Like me, your teacher."

Boom!

With one step, Xu Bo moved as if a phantom, the air instantly exploding, the airflow surging into wind.

Xu Bo stopped at the other end of the office.

"This?"

"Is this what a 19th rank Martial Artist is like?" Li Yuan watched, holding his breath, a hint of excitement in his heart.

He was certain that Teacher Xu just now erupted with a burst speed definitely exceeding 50 meters per second.

To know, this was an on-the-spot burst, not Xu Bo's maximum burst speed.

This was what truly powerful Martial Artists were like.

Xu Bo walked back slowly and said as he walked, "Every day, to maintain my strong body, if I relied only on eating, I would have to consume several tens of pounds of high-energy food."

"This is still in urban life, if I were to fight with Star Realm Creatures, the consumption would be greater, two hundred pounds of high-energy food wouldn't be enough."

Li Yuan was speechless.

He thought of elephants and giraffes, which spent most of their day eating.

If they exercised, their consumption would be even greater.

"That's why we have produced vitality potions," Xu Bo said. "Vitality potions are essentially extracted from food, easier for the body to absorb, and almost free from impurities, though they come at a costly price."

"By taking them, one can reduce the demand for food."

Li Yuan nodded slightly.

By using vitality potions, the burden of eating would be reduced and the efficiency of cultivation could be at least doubled.

"But as one progresses, becoming a 15th rank Martial Artist or even stronger, vitality potions alone are no longer enough."

"In recent decades, Source Energy Essence Pills have emerged, allowing us to directly absorb Origin Power."

"What is Origin Power?"

"Since the alteration of the Six Great Star Bridges hundreds of years ago, the most mysterious energy 'Origin Power' appeared in the Starry Sky," Xu Bo said, somewhat emotionally. "Once we can absorb Origin Power, the speed of our body's evolution will increase tenfold, a hundredfold."

Li Yuan listened intently.

Origin Power was exceedingly magical.

Powerful Martial Artists could, in just a few decades, achieve flying through the heavens and the earth, and even walk out unscathed from the center of a nuclear explosion... all because they absorbed Origin Power and promoted their body's evolution.

With the body of a human, they rivalled the Divine.

"There are three methods to absorb Origin Power."

"First is to have a Physical Quality of at least 19th rank, with sufficiently profound skills, and a perfect unity of body, mind, and intent to barely perceive Origin Power and achieve initial absorption," Xu Bo said gravely. "This is the most primitive absorption method, very inefficient, but the first generation of Martial Artists became strong step by step using this method."

"Later on."

"As the number of Martial Artists grew more and more, and became stronger and stronger, the first High Rank Cultivation Technique was finally deduced, drastically increasing the efficiency of absorbing Origin Power by more than ten times," Xu Bo said. "Subsequent techniques, the second, the third… until now, our human civilization has developed seven major High Rank Cultivation Methods."

```

"Even ordinary people can achieve preliminary absorption of Origin Power and greatly increase the efficiency of enhancing their Physical Quality if they resonate with corresponding High Rank Cultivation Methods." Xu Bo said with a hint of regret as he looked at Li Yuan.

```

```

Li Yuan understood what Teacher Xu meant.

```

```

Awakening Martial Spirit wasn't as mystical as the 'Spirit Root' depicted in novels.

```

```

Its essence is about compatibility with the seven High Rank Cultivation Methods.

```

```

A compatibility over 85% is considered an awakening.

```

```

Why does human civilization place such immense importance on Martial Spirit? Because ordinary people who practice High Rank Cultivation Methods can gradually absorb the Origin Power from the universe to strengthen their bodies.

```

```

As a result, the efficiency of Life Evolution spikes, and the hope of becoming a Prime Warrior greatly increases.

```

```

This is why the students in the Elite Class generally possess formidable physical qualities.

```

```

Secondly, Origin Power exists everywhere in the Starry Sky of the universe.

```

```

It is not only much more potent than any medicament for Qi and blood, but also inexhaustible, saving a vast amount of resources for the entire human civilization.

```

```

"Absorbing Origin Power through High Rank Cultivation Methods is the second method, and it's the best method," Xu Bo shook his head, "but you can't do it now... Li Yuan, if you want to absorb the Origin Power from the universe on your own, you can only use the most primitive absorption method."

```

```

"That would require your Physical Quality to be elevated to level 19."

```

```

Li Yuan nodded slightly.

```

```

Not absorbing Origin Power yet raising your Physical Quality to level 19? You can imagine how difficult that would be.

```

```

You must resort to a great deal of external resources.

```

```

"Of course, if you become an incredibly powerful Prime Warrior in the future, you might be able to create a High Rank Cultivation Method that suits yourself."

```

```

"Even to create High Rank Cultivation Methods that a large number of ordinary people can practice." Xu Bo said emotionally, "In doing so, you would become a significant benefactor to human civilization."

```

```

"The world's number one Martial Artist, 'Dongfang Ji', once said that every person is uniquely endowed and should have a suitable High Rank Cultivation Method."

```

```

"If our human civilization could give birth to a hundred High Rank Cultivation Techniques, then everyone will find a High Rank Cultivation Method that suits them from their youth, and the concept of Martial Spirit would no longer exist."

```

```

"By then, the speed at which Martial Artists are born in our human civilization will be more than ten times faster than it is now," Xu Bo quoted Dongfang Ji, "and this will require generations of Martial Artists to struggle and strive for."

```

```

"A hundred High Rank Cultivation Methods?" Li Yuan sighed inwardly.

```

```

Human civilization, from the era of Life Evolution, has only spawned seven universal High Rank Cultivation Methods in nearly two hundred years.

```

```

However, compared to the three High Rank Cultivation Methods more than eighty years ago,

```

```

the pace at which Martial Artists are born in this era has increased several times.

```

```

The more Martial Artists there are, the larger the base, the increased number of powerful Martial Artists, which in turn accelerates the speed at which High Rank Cultivation Methods are created.

```

```

This cycle is virtuous.

```

```

And it constantly strengthens human civilization.

```

```

"The third method to absorb Origin Power is through Essence Pills; this emerged in the last two to three decades," Xu Bo explained, "Essence Pills contain traces of Origin Power, which can be absorbed immediately upon consumption."

```

```

"It's just that Origin Power is domineering."

```

```

"Without the aid of High Rank Cultivation Methods to help with the assimilation, the absorption will be very difficult," Xu Bo said, "Therefore, an ordinary person should suffice with one pill a month."

```

```

"Your natural Physical Quality actually belongs to the very top tier; it's just that you don't have a fitting High Rank Cultivation Method." Xu Bo looked at Li Yuan with a touch of regret, "And with your strong spiritual power, perhaps you could manage two pills per month."

```

```

"Thank you for the guidance, Teacher," Li Yuan nodded and replied with a candid smile, "If I don't have a High Rank Cultivation Method that suits me."

```

```

"Then in the future, I will strive to create one."

```

```

"Ha ha," Xu Bo laughed upon hearing this, "That's the spirit; your Teacher awaits."

```

```

...

```

```

"This 'Stellar Spear Technique', along with the 'Dragon Movement Technique', are inherited from the same lineage as the 'Solid Rock Cultivation Technique', which I suggest you switch to," Xu Bo continued, "Both of these Secret Manuals are highly reputed among Martial Artists, pointing directly to the Fifth Stage of skill."

```

```

"Pointing directly to the Fifth Stage of skill?" Li Yuan pondered.

```

```

His own skill was only at the Third Stage.

```

```

"Teacher, can't you teach me a Second Rank Secret Manual?" Li Yuan couldn't help but ask.

```

```

"Me?" Xu Bo was first taken aback and then he smiled, "Indeed, I have practiced many Second Rank Secret Manuals, covering Spear Techniques, Sword Techniques, and movement techniques."

```

```

"But I can't teach you," Xu Bo shook his head, "Have you not noticed that I've never advised you to practice a Second Rank Secret Manual?"

```

```

"Why not?" Li Yuan was astonished.

```

```

"I only have the right to learn, not the right to instruct." Xu Bo explained, "Like the Fist Techniques, Spear Techniques, and movement techniques you are currently studying—all of these are First Rank Secret Manuals, suitable for students with First Stage and Second Stage skills."

```

```

"A vast number of First Rank Secret Manuals and Cultivation Methods are completely public and free for all citizens."

```

```

"But from the Second Rank Secret Manuals onwards, there are copyrights," Xu Bo said, "They must be purchased before they can be used."
