I Can See Your Combat Power Chapter 1323

Chapter 1323: Chapter 615: Soul Casting Guidance Chapter 1323: Chapter 615: Soul Casting Guidance Having no suitable topic to continue, Yun Xiu raised her head and asked Tang Luo, “And the other one?”

“The other one, we just had a meal together a few days ago, didn't we?”

Tang Luo replied with a smile, looking at Yun Xiu's cute, slightly confused expression, he playfully nibbled on the cute little forehead of hers.

“The last one is your father-in-law, the Sect Head of Jiejiang City, Lord Tang Sen!”

In terms of single instance physical strength alone, the Undying Battle Body, combined with a warrior of dual strength bloodlines, had nearly reached the true limit of body forging.

Even after Tang Luo had been restructured following destruction, he could not surpass Tang Sen in terms of absolute strength.

Therefore, if there was truly someone in the world who could become the strongest body technique master in Xiehe, then the most hopeful would undoubtedly be the Sect Head of the Tang Clan.

“This is really… too incredible.”

Interesting lives are composed of countless interesting fragments pieced together, whereas painful and dull lives merely require swapping out the content of those fragments.

Optimists always believe they live in a world of endless possibilities, while pessimists are doubtful about the idea of infinite possibilities and therefore live in gloom, but whether the essence of the world is limited or infinite, what does it really matter?

People just need to decide where to devote their time in life, just like farmers cultivating the land; where you spend your time is where your harvest lies.

Even if you don't want to do anything and choose to waste away, there is nothing wrong with that, because the greatest joy in life is indeed wasting time.

If Tang Luo had been born in a world without extraordinary powers, his life might have been consumed by trivial entertainment until death.

It was the emergence of martial arts that allowed Tang Luo to find his true calling in a different world, a passion that the native Xiehe residents, accustomed to martial arts, could not understand.

Because this is a fantasy becoming reality, power returning to oneself, if there is a heaven, then it should look like Xiehe.

“To become a powerful warrior, the first thing you must do is to find yourself!”

Tang Luo waved his hand heroically at the woman before him and said, “There are more than a billion people practicing martial arts in Xiehe, yet nine out of ten are dreaming of becoming someone else. Like becoming the second Martial Saint, or the second Xu Sheng, or whoever they aspire to be. Such people, no matter how long they train in their lifetime, will achieve nothing much, because they have lost themselves right at the beginning of their martial path.”

“Such a martial artist might become a decent warrior under the power of their role model, but the limit of their martial career will be just that, decent.”

“Therefore, what you need to do now is to find yourself, not to cultivate blindly!”

“Among the three Soul Casting methods, I believe the strongest should be the Seeking Truth Method, because both Visualizing and the Mimicry Technique are about imitation or fantasy, only the Seeking Truth Method is about the power born from a clear understanding of oneself!”

“To give a simple example, I use the Mimicry Technique to imitate the divine dragon, which is overbearing and unparalleled, thereby forging an invincible reputation. However, this strength is illusory because you're a human, not a dragon. For such a person who wants to ascend to the other shore, there's only one way. That is to abandon the identity of 'human' and truly become a dragon!”

Yun Xiu came to learn martial arts, but she felt that she couldn't understand a word of what Tang Luo was saying.

Since not understanding and asking is the most basic learning attitude, she directly asked, “I don't quite understand the meaning of this example. Isn't using the Mimicry Technique to soul cast about controlling powerful creatures? Why would one need to abandon one's 'human' identity?”

“Good question, this involves the key issue of the mutual influence between the soul and the physical body.”

Tang Luo explained, “The soul is actually a condensation of the 'three souls and seven spirits,' and this condensation is of will and spirit, lacking a definite physical form. Therefore, Soul Casting is the process of integrating your will and spirit into your soul, which is then projected into reality.”

“In this nascent process, there's no submission from one to another, just like the Mimicry Technique doesn't just simulate powerful mythical beasts or wild beasts; it can also simulate common species like tigers, leopards, jackals, and wolves, and this doesn't affect the soul's absolute power.”

“However, the soul ultimately needs to grow, and the final goal of condensing the soul is to achieve perfect unity between the soul and the 'cultivated body.' But how can humans and beasts achieve perfect resonance?”

“Either you abandon your 'human' identity and merge with the beast soul, or you make your soul give up the beast's nature, submitting to humanity. Both approaches can lead to success, but think about it–if we have to make the beast soul forsake its true nature, abandoning the strength of its wildness, then why not directly use the Seeking Truth Method to Soul Cast from the beginning? Going round in circles like this, isn't it a waste of effort?”

“I think I'm beginning to understand.”

Yun Xiu nodded thoughtfully and then added, “But why do people always say that Soul Casting with the Seeking Truth Method is risky and the amount of soul power amplified entirely depends on luck, with the majority not even matching the amplification from Visualizing beast souls?”

“That brings us back to the first problem.”

Tang Luo said earnestly, “The Heart-refining Method was actually a technique concocted on the fly by the sages, very imperfect.”

“Let me put it this way, the basic logic of the Heart-refining Method is to forge an unbeatable heart of a champion, but this method of shaping it is actually quite nonsensical.”

“It's simple for a person to be unbeatable–just keep fighting those weaker than oneself! But a champion's heart shaped by bullying the weak is as illusory as a mirage. Soul Casting with such a Heart-refining Method in the end depends on the extent to which you deceive yourself. Vermillion Bird Street's number one spear and stick fighter, East Market's strongest fist king, Longjiang County's preeminent prodigy–just strive to be number one; the soul that's cast will be roughly the same.”

“And another version of the Heart-refining Method, at its core, embraces the spirit of 'That which does not kill me makes me stronger.' Compared to the former, this is naturally a bit stronger, but it too has significant drawbacks.”

“Failure leaves traces, and even the strongest individuals can't erase them completely. Moreover, objective confidence can make one seem insignificant. Because you know someone can kill you, you know you can become stronger; this kind of mental suggestion, frankly speaking, isn't high-level!”

“Therefore, both versions of the Heart-refining Method cannot guarantee the power of Soul Casting with the Seeking Truth Method!”

The Heart-refining Method was once extolled as the best aid for the Seeking Truth Method, and even many sect disciples who pursued Soul Casting with the Seeking Truth Method referred to it.

Although the final values always fluctuate, big data still reflects the Heart-refining Method's tremendous benefits for the Seeking Truth Method.

However, after hearing Tang Luo's sharp and precise analysis, Yun Xiu's belief in the Heart-refining Method was severely shaken because it seemed that both methods had significant flaws.

“If we don't use the Heart-refining Method, then how can we ensure the effectiveness of Soul Casting with the Seeking Truth Method?”
