Chapter 31: Luck of the Draw - "Chaotic Divine Mill Meditation" (Douluo Version)

Su Ming sat in deep thought, reflecting on the passive healing abilities of the wood element. So far, it seemed pretty decent.

From his speculation, the healing power of the wood element likely depended on how much soul power was consumed to heal an equivalent amount of injury. It was somewhat similar to the Nine Heart Begonia martial spirit.

However, since the healing ability was only a passive effect of the wood element, its current effectiveness couldn't match the Nine Heart Begonia. But once Su Ming's soul power level increased, that might change. Who knows, maybe he could even achieve seamless healing like the Thousand Hands Fool—constantly healing himself without any visible action!

After that, Su Ming and Xiao Wu temporarily parted ways to focus on their cultivation.

This surprised Su Ming—since when did Xiao Wu become so enthusiastic about training?

Shaking his head, Su Ming walked alone outside the academy. He wanted to test the effects of a low-grade Body Tempering Liquid, but trying it inside the academy wasn't ideal. He'd have to rent a room in the city.

Su Ming first bought a large wooden tub for bathing, then checked into a random hotel. He tipped the staff to help fill the tub with water.

Once everything was ready, Su Ming poured one of the bottles of Body Tempering Liquid into the tub. The water immediately turned milky white.

He undressed and stepped into the tub, feeling a slight tingling and mild stinging sensation, but it was tolerable.

Su Ming guessed that the Body Tempering Liquid wouldn't have much effect on him. His physique had already been enhanced once, so the potency of this low-grade liquid might be lacking.

Since he didn't have a body-tempering technique yet, he could only rely on his body to absorb it naturally. This would inevitably waste some of the liquid's effects and take longer to complete the process.

But Su Ming had a workaround—he began circulating the "Wood Sutra" technique while sitting in the tub, simultaneously tempering his body and cultivating his soul power, killing two birds with one stone.

Soon, an entire afternoon passed. Su Ming had used up three bottles of the Body Tempering Liquid, but he decided not to use the remaining seven bottles—they no longer had any effect on him.

Initially, Su Ming had some expectations for the low-grade liquid, but now it was clear—low-grade was indeed low-grade. Just three bottles were enough to max out its usefulness. However, Su Ming speculated that with his current physique, he should have no trouble absorbing a spirit ring around 2,000 years old.

After packing up, Su Ming returned to Notting Academy.

With Tang San still away, things felt a bit boring. Without an excuse to spar, there was nothing else to do but continue training.

Soon, midnight arrived—the most exciting moment of the day.

All the female leads were fighting off sleep, curious about what reward Su Ming would receive today. As expected, they guessed that Bibi Dong was one of the diary holders, and today's reward should go to her!

Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing today's diary entry. You've received the following rewards: Spiritual Technique "Chaotic Divine Mill Meditation" (Douluo Version), one Curse Talisman, and 10 bottles of Couch Potato Cola.

"What the—!"

Su Ming was stunned. Today's luck was off the charts! He had drawn a spiritual cultivation technique, which meant he could officially start training his Sharingan.

If his memory served him right, this technique was incredibly powerful. But the Douluo version? That was interesting. His Wood Release technique was also a Douluo version.

Looks like the original world couldn't handle the full strength!

He immediately checked the descriptions of the three items.

Chaotic Divine Mill Meditation (Douluo Version): A mental cultivation technique from Yuan Zun, modified by the system for the Douluo universe. It contains a Spiritual Millstone, which crushes and reforms the soul to enhance spiritual power.

Curse Talisman: Mentally recite the name of a person to use this talisman. It will cause something unfortunate to happen to them soon. Use with caution. Hehe...

Couch Potato Cola: A carbonated drink. Trust me, you'll want a bottle.

Su Ming thought, This spiritual technique is powerful, but also quite torturous. I wonder how painful it will be... Why can't I ever get a normal technique? Why does it always have to be so extreme?

Still, it was better than nothing. Pain is pain!

He grabbed a bottle of Couch Potato Cola, opened it, and took a sip. It was ice-cold.

"Burp~~"

"Ah, refreshing!"

Su Ming had really missed Couch Potato Cola. This world had no such carbonated drinks.

Now that he had claimed all his rewards, it was time to record his thoughts.

[Today was another day of incredible luck. I managed to obtain a spiritual cultivation technique, "Chaotic Divine Mill Meditation." Originally from a world much stronger than this one, the system had to tweak the technique since this world couldn't handle the original version.]

The female leads were stunned, quickly followed by envy. They hadn't expected Su Ming to possess such a powerful spiritual cultivation technique. After all, this world had no way to cultivate spiritual power directly.

The only ways to enhance spiritual power were through leveling up soul power or absorbing a spirit bone that enhanced it. Now, with this technique, increasing spiritual power would become much easier.

Among the female leads, Xiao Wu was the happiest. Now that Su Ming could train his spiritual power, it wouldn't be long before his Sharingan evolved, bringing him closer to the Rinnegan.

Still, Xiao Wu wasn't sure how she could repay Su Ming. She had access to his diary's replica and could receive rewards, and his diary clearly stated that he wanted to help revive her mother. This left Xiao Wu feeling indebted.

She then thought back to the time when Su Ming first got the diary and had called her his wife. Remembering it now still made her blush. Was she really going to become his wife?

Su Ming was so handsome, strong, and mysterious. Marrying him didn't sound too bad...

His only flaw? Su Ming seemed a bit perverted and flirtatious. He probably wouldn't have just one wife in the future!

If Su Ming knew what she was thinking, he'd definitely say, "Don't slander me! I treat my wives well. I'm only perverted for my own wives, I don't even look at anyone else!"

Meanwhile, Bibi Dong was filled with anticipation. It wouldn't be long before A'Rou could be revived!

The diary continued updating.

[Although this spiritual technique is powerful, it's difficult to cultivate. The process involves a mental millstone appearing in your spiritual space, where your soul is crushed and reformed to gain new strength. This will significantly enhance spiritual power!]
