Qi Zhiheng went to the herb garden not simply to avoid marriage proposals, but because he discovered a problem with his cultivation. In his previous life, after receiving a divine inheritance, Qi Zhiheng's cultivation speed increased rapidly, and he encountered almost no bottlenecks.
On the contrary, his aptitude improved in this life, but problems arose.
Qi Zhiheng discovered during his cultivation that no matter how much spiritual energy he absorbed, it was like a clay ox sinking into the sea, and his cultivation progress was so slow that it was almost nonexistent.
After cultivating for several days, the spiritual energy cluster within his body had probably grown from the size of a grain of dust to the size of two grains of dust. To put it bluntly, it had gone from an invisible cluster of spiritual energy to a cluster that was still invisible.
What troubled him most was that after cultivating for half a month, his cultivation level had not increased much, but his meridians were throbbing with pain.
Even the slow-witted Qi Zhiheng realized something was wrong. Slightly alarmed, he stopped cultivating.
He didn't know much about cultivation, and the people of Xuanling Continent were even less likely to know, so there probably weren't any books on the subject.
Fortunately, Qi Zhiheng had many books in his space, which he searched for day and night.
Four days later, I finally found my symptoms in a book called "The Complete Book of Special Constitutions".
The book states that his condition is that of a chaotic body.
He possesses ten spiritual roots, all of uniform length and thickness, with the ten elements of spiritual power in balance.
People with this physique are generally invincible within their own level, and can easily challenge those of higher levels.
Of course, this power is also directly proportional to the difficulty of cultivation; this physique is more than ten times more difficult to cultivate than the average person. Furthermore, most people with this physique cannot even reach the Nascent Soul stage.
Spiritual energy is a type of energy source; when the energy reaches a certain level, it can activate various bodily functions.
The human body has two important components: the dantian and the spiritual source (also known as the spiritual root). During cultivation, spiritual energy is drawn into the spiritual source, filtered, and then stored in the dantian.
If we compare the spiritual source to a person, then the dantian is like the internal organs, and spiritual energy is like food. The spiritual energy is "eaten" into the dantian through the spiritual source and stored there to maintain daily consumption. Just like a person, one's cultivation level grows slowly.
The reason why Qi Zhiheng experienced bloating and pain in his meridians can be explained in another way.
Aptitude is graded, and the higher the grade, the wider the meridians, making it easier to absorb spiritual energy. The fewer spiritual elements a cultivator has within their inner spiritual source, the less spiritual energy is needed for advancement, and vice versa.
The better the quality of the spiritual source, the purer the spiritual energy required. To put it simply, Qi Zhiheng has a second-grade first-class aptitude, which is considered quite good in the Xuanling Continent. However, the problem is that he has ten spiritual sources of different spiritual elements, which are holding back his cultivation.
However, he possessed the "Ten Thousand Yuan Mixed One Technique," which allowed him to cultivate at a speed comparable to that of a typical second-grade aptitude. This was also the reason why his cultivation speed was so rapid after obtaining the "Ten Thousand Yuan Mixed One Technique" in his previous life.
In this life, however, he did not consume the Snow Leaf, and his internal spiritual sources remained intact. This allowed the various spiritual sources within his body to form a delicate cycle, all of which were of extremely high quality. The required spiritual energy had to be exceptionally pure, and because there were many spiritual sources, the amount of spiritual energy needed was even greater. He needed both abundant and pure spiritual energy. This was truly a challenge for even the most valiant heroes.
