Breaking through the Cognitive Obstacle in his heart, Ling Yi did not experience any profound spiritual cleansing, nor did his Spiritual Energy make a significant leap.

At most, his Spiritual Energy became a bit more active, and his resolve deepened by a third. This included his dedication to cultivation and life, as well as his willingness to humbly absorb external information and think thrice before acting, rather than rejecting things without consideration.

There was no way around it; his foundation was still too shallow. The three realms of 'Seeing Oneself, Seeing the World, Seeing All Beings' required sufficient experience and powerful Spiritual Energy to elevate oneself in a 'moment of enlightenment.' Just like ordinary people in his previous life, even if they had a flash of insight to solve a math problem, the feeling of divine assistance was pleasant, but afterward, everything returned to its original state.

Although Ling Yi's Spiritual Energy was stronger than that of ordinary people and even surpassed some low-level Soul Masters, he had not yet reached the critical point of transformation. He could only store this insight and experience in his heart, waiting for the day he would undergo a metamorphosis, at which point it would become a source of nourishment.

In addition, through Zhang Lei's description of his own cultivation, Ling Yi discovered a cognitive misconception he had.

He had previously assumed that his above-average Spiritual Energy was the standard for other Soul Adepts of his age and level.

It must be understood that, according to the analysis of some big names on the Tangluo Baidu Tieba from his previous life, unless a Soul Master's martial soul specifically involved Spiritual Energy, most Soul Masters would only first encounter a Ten-Thousand Year Soul Ring and the mental impact of a Ten-Thousand Year Soul Beast's residual soul at the Soul King Rank. It wasn't until the Soul Sage Rank, when they could manifest their Soul Weapon True Body, that they could begin to utilize their Spiritual Energy. Only at the Sealed Soul Master Rank could they truly control their Spiritual Energy, along with their soul power, which had been cultivated to the ninetieth level, and their powerful physical body nurtured by soul power, achieving the Essence, Qi, and Spirit transformation, the Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown!

As for the credibility of these analyses, Ling Yi would have to wait until he entered the Soul Weapon Academy and could access the library to verify the fantasies of his two lives against reality.

For now, Ling Yi had at least broken through his Cognitive Obstacle, making his Spiritual Energy more agile and giving him a deeper understanding of meditation techniques, which gave him more confidence in his future cultivation and the improvement of his meditation techniques!

The road ahead is long and arduous, but now I shall begin anew!

Murmuring this to himself, Ling Yi composed his thoughts, closed his eyes, and took deep, steady breaths, calming his mind and quickly falling into a deep sleep.

At this moment, a crystal-like figure appeared in Ling Yi's mind. The figure resembled Ling Yi to a great extent, with over ninety percent of it vividly lifelike, except for some minor details that were still hazy and indistinct.

With each breath of Ling Yi in the external world, the crystal figure in his mind also breathed in and out, and the hazy areas gradually became more transparent.

Believe it or not, it wouldn't be long before this crystal figure became completely clear and transparent, like a polished mirror.

As he fell into a deep sleep, Ling Yi's brain, heartbeat, blood circulation, and organs all began to adjust spontaneously, entering a state of harmony that was hard to describe.

"Breathe in—breathe out—"

With each inhalation and exhalation through his nose and mouth, the natural essence from the outside world quietly entered Ling Yi's body. Not only through his nose and mouth but also through various parts of his body, tiny specks of essence slowly seeped in, though in very small quantities.

If these invisible specks of essence were observed microscopically, they would appear in various colors. Upon reaching Ling Yi's sleeping body, they spontaneously followed different channels of varying sizes and lengths.

Among these circulating channels, twelve were relatively wider. Among the specks of essence, white specks remained in the lungs, red specks paused at the heart, black, yellow, and green-blue specks traveled downward, reaching the kidneys, spleen, and liver, respectively.

As the specks of essence of different colors integrated into the corresponding organs, a subtle energy quietly emerged, flowing through the twelve channels, eight wider channels, and countless fine branches, nourishing every corner of his body.

The Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian, which had become somewhat tense and stiff after an hour of cultivation, gradually regained its original flexibility and vitality under the nourishment of this subtle energy.

An hour later, a rosy glow appeared on the horizon, charming and delightful.

Ling Yi's long, black eyelashes fluttered slightly as he opened his eyes, his clear, black-and-white eyes sharp and focused, unlike the dazed state of ordinary people just waking up.

Lowering his eyelids, he calmed his mind, and with his Spiritual Energy reflecting within, he carefully sensed that not only had his depleted mental energy been fully restored, but the 'Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian' in his right arm had also regained its vitality and become slightly more resilient than before cultivation.

"Not bad~" Ling Yi's lips curled into a satisfied smile as he nodded.

Clearly, the self-recovery during deep sleep had achieved the effect he had hoped for.

Ling Yi knew what this meant.

From now on, every time he reached a critical point in cultivation, he could enter a deep sleep to restore his spirit and meridians, greatly extending his daily cultivation time!

Although Ling Yi did not know how the cultivation of soul power progressed for Innate Full Soul Power prodigies (from the Douluo world) in terms of efficiency, if he considered the daily cultivation time alone, he could surpass them if he wanted to.

After all, with twenty-four hours in a day, if he removed the necessary time for meals and bathroom breaks, Ling Yi could alternate between one hour of cultivation and one hour of deep sleep recovery, allowing him to cultivate for over ten hours a day!

For those Innate Full Soul Power prodigies (from the Douluo world), at the age of six, not only would their bodies and meridians struggle to endure, but the mental and spiritual fatigue and the decline in concentration would also significantly reduce their daily cultivation time.

The process of cultivation, whether it was as blissful and sleep-replacing as described in some web novels or arduous and mentally taxing, Ling Yi had found the answer through personal experience—it was the latter.

Perhaps it was due to the differences in world systems. In some worlds, the cultivation system might be comfortable and addictive, but unfortunately, in the Douluo Continent where Ling Yi now found himself, the martial soul system was not like that.

For example, in the original story, Innate Full Soul Power Oscar lacked enthusiasm for cultivation and often slacked off; the Little Princess of the Seven Treasures Ruyi Sect, Ning Rongrong, who was adored by all and had innate soul power at the ninth level, was extremely excellent in both background and personal qualities, yet still needed to be encouraged to cultivate; and Xiao Wu, who transformed from a Hundred-Thousand Year Flexible Bone Rabbit and harbored a blood vendetta for her mother's murder, still cultivated inconsistently.

And for those from humble backgrounds like Ling Yi and Zhang Lei, even if they wanted to strive hard to catch up, they were often constrained by their own talents and modest family circumstances, sometimes having to balance work and rest to give their bodies and wallets a break.

Of course, that was the conventional wisdom among the lower classes in the Douluo Continent.

Ling Yi, however, was a cheat.

And with the self-made cheat, not only could Ling Yi activate the cultivation accelerator for himself, but he could also bring Zhang Lei along, advancing together on the path of martial souls!
