Chapter 27: Centrifugal Separation Method
"Xiang Wu, do you already know how to break through to become an Elite Warrior?" Wu Yuntian asked.
Su Hao nodded, "Yes, Father already explained it. As long as I can make the blood energy in my body move, form a new change, and break out of my body, it will be considered a successful advancement to an Elite Warrior."
"We have many Elite Warriors in our Tea Mountain Outpost, and you know them all. For example, Captain Yong, Old Li, and Uncle Gao. When you look at them, can you see the difference between them and ordinary people?" Wu Yuntian asked.
"The difference?" Su Hao frowned. He hadn't specifically thought about it.
What is the difference between ordinary people and Elite Warriors, besides being stronger? Su Hao couldn't figure it out, so he shook his head, "I don't know."
His relationship with Wu Yuntian is more like that of a teacher and student than father and son. He always asks when he doesn't understand.
Wu Yuntian said, "The difference is in their presence!"
Powerful warriors undoubtedly have a stronger presence than ordinary people, there's no doubt about that. But that's not what Wu Yuntian was asking about.
Thinking about it, Su Hao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said to Wu Yuntian, "I understand now. It's their spiritual state, their aura. Elite warriors have a stronger presence."
Wu Yuntian smiled, a rare sight, and nodded, "Exactly, it's their aura. And the key to breaking through to become an Elite Warrior is the aura!"
Su Hao scratched his head and realized that they had come to the "heart study" again. It seems that martial arts and heart study are closely related!
Seeing Su Hao looking confused, Wu Yuntian finally laughed and said, "Actually, it's not difficult to understand. First, think about this question: Why can't the blood energy move on its own?"
Su Hao thought seriously for a moment. Without external force, how can the blood energy move on its own when it is already contained within the body? Unable to figure it out, he shook his head and said, "I don't know."
He and Wu Yuntian have a relationship more like teacher and student, so he always asks when he doesn't understand.
Wu Yuntian said, "Because the blood energy is not under your active control."
Su Hao was a bit puzzled. Can't he control the eruption of blood energy? But he still listened attentively to Wu Yuntian's explanation.
Wu Yuntian picked up a stone and held it in his hand, asking Su Hao, "Who is currently in control of this stone?"
"Father is," Su Hao replied.
"Why?" Wu Yuntian asked.
Su Hao obediently answered, "Because the stone is in your hand."
"That's right, because the control of the stone is in my hand, not in your consciousness. What you need to do is to snatch back the control of the blood energy from your body's control. When you want it to move, it moves; when you want it to be still, it stays still. Free and at your will."
Su Hao understood, "So that's how it is."
He suddenly realized that his father is really amazing. He always manages to explain such abstract things in a very vivid way, allowing him to quickly understand the principles involved. It seems that his father has put in a lot of effort.
Wu Yuntian continued, "To gain control of the blood energy, you need to have a stronger consciousness than your body. Only then can you snatch back the control. So, you need to strengthen your consciousness, which is your aura."
Su Hao nodded again, "How do I strengthen it?"
This is the important part. Theory is important, but the method is also crucial.
Wu Yuntian said, "Before I teach you the method to strengthen your aura, there are some important things to note in cultivation. This is very important."
Su Hao listened attentively.
"Three strictness, four diligence, five don'ts: Be strict with yourself; Be strict with your integrity; Be strict with principles; Be diligent in thinking; Be diligent in learning; Be diligent in being cautious; Be diligent in being respectful; Don't argue without reason; Don't speak too much; Don't be cunning; Don't deny yourself; Don't indulge in desires."
Wu Yuntian looked serious and asked, "Remember them?"
Su Hao nodded and repeated the three strictness, four diligence, and five don'ts.
Wu Yuntian nodded, "Good. Now, I will teach you the method to cultivate your aura."
...
Su Hao spends one hour each day strengthening his bones, and the rest of his time is devoted to enhancing his aura. Following Wu Yuntian's instructions, he begins daily meditation and practice.
Cultivating the aura cannot be as opportunistic as transforming blood energy. It requires him to accumulate steadily. The role of Little Guang, the electronic assistant, is only to help Su Hao summarize the daily changes and select the most efficient methods, allowing Su Hao to constantly adjust his state.
When Su Hao immerses himself in the cultivation of his aura, time passes unusually quickly. He becomes more energetic and full of vitality. He gradually gains greater control over his body, such as controlling the contraction of certain muscles or regulating his heartbeat, which becomes effortless.
After half a year, Su Hao is 9 years old.
At this point, he is already able to freely manipulate the blood energy in his body and make it circulate according to the rules of the Nine Palaces Blood Extraction Manual.
However, he is not considered a true Elite Warrior yet. He can only be regarded as half of one, because although he has made the blood energy circulate, he has not completed the transformation of the blood energy, allowing it to circulate outside the body.
According to the Nine Palaces Blood Extraction Manual, he needs to quickly shake the blood energy to complete its transformation.
But Su Hao feels that this transformation is about to be achieved. It is happening today.
His entire consciousness is immersed in his body. The blood energy in his body circulates independently in nine special positions, rapidly shaking.
With the rapid shaking of the blood energy, a special substance, resembling both gas and liquid, slowly seeps out.
Su Hao knows that this colorless substance is the blood energy of an Elite Warrior.
After the formation of Elite Warrior blood energy, it stabilizes and is stored in special positions in the body, ready to be called upon at any time.
After a moment, Su Hao realizes that the conversion of ordinary blood energy into Elite Warrior blood energy is too slow.
The efficiency of this shaking method is too low. At this rate, it might take a whole day to convert all the ordinary blood energy in his body.
Su Hao furrows his brow and carefully observes the conversion process, trying to understand its principles.
Suddenly, he realizes that this conversion process is somewhat familiar. Isn't it similar to the separation of impurities in chemistry?
"Perhaps it can be done this way!"
Su Hao thinks of the way a washing machine removes water through high-speed rotation, using centrifugal force to quickly separate it.
Thinking about it, Su Hao immediately tries to control the blood energy to start rotating. Soon, the blood energy forms nine whirl
pools, spinning faster and faster.
When the speed of the blood energy reaches a certain level, a special substance is thrown out of the vortex—it is the Elite Warrior blood energy. The quantity rapidly increases, while the blood energy whirlpools consume themselves, becoming smaller and smaller until they disappear.
The positions where the blood energy whirlpools were located have all been transformed into Elite Warrior blood energy.
"Does this count as a successful conversion? It's so amazing. This is the change in the nature of the blood energy that my father talked about!"
"The original shaking method has a too low conversion efficiency, but my method, like a washing machine spinning water, has an efficiency more than ten times higher. By using high-speed rotation and the principle of centrifugal force to separate impurities, the Elite Warrior blood energy can be quickly separated from the ordinary blood energy."
Su Hao gives himself a mental thumbs-up for his ingenuity.
Then, with curiosity, he observes the new colorless substance he has obtained—the Elite Warrior blood energy. He tries to make it move and finds it even easier to control than ordinary blood energy.
This Elite Warrior blood energy can reach any part of his body with just a thought.
Su Hao picks up a short knife, and the Elite Warrior blood energy rushes out of his arm, covering the entire knife. He lightly stabs the stone ground.
"Swoosh~"
The short knife pierces through the stone as if it were tofu.
"This is so amazing!" Su Hao is thoroughly amazed.
Is this the power of the Elite Warrior blood energy? It's incredibly strong, comparable to legendary true qi or internal energy!
