Section 85 New Cultivation Methods (II)
As for the specific cultivation method of the Spiritual Power Feedback Method, it is a bit illusory to say. According to the cultivation methods introduced in the book, during the cultivation process, the cultivator needs to spread his spiritual power throughout the body according to the methods introduced in the book.
The reason for this is because an ordinary person who has never condensed his soul is actually scattered in every part of his body. That's what we call the five senses.
And these souls, which are scattered in various parts of the body, will only come together after a person's death, or if they are pulled by some special method.
"Hey, really?"
For the soul or something, even Tom, who has died and crossed over once, actually has no concept at all.
However, when Tom distributed his spiritual power throughout his body according to the cultivation method in the book, he found that these spiritual powers were indeed consumed by something unknown. Instead of reconverging like a wave of water hitting a wall, as usual.
"It's like leaning against a fire, and it's drowsy."
As his mental power drained, Tom felt as if he had fallen into a state of half-asleep and comfortable.
"But what the hell is this Saribuddha ? Sister, this thing actually ate so much of my mental power? ”
But then, Tom keenly felt that three or four out of ten of the spiritual power he had spread throughout his body was consumed by the relics in his heart.
"What does this mean? There are also souls in Sariputha? Whose soul does that soul belong to? Mine or someone else's? ”
Strongly withstanding the feeling of drowsiness, warm and warm, Tom vigilantly perceived, in the wave of spiritual power, like a Saribuddha who opened a whale basin mouth and constantly consumed spiritual power.
"Luckily, there was no movement or any unusual feeling. Otherwise, even if I get out, I'll have to go to the ancient one to find out what's going on. ”
After careful observation for a while, I found that Sarifota, who was in the wave of spiritual power, showed no signs of coming back to life, nor did he feel that he would make any trouble for Tom. At this, Tom was slightly relieved.
The soul is a person's greatest secret, and if it is not to the point of last resort, Tom does not want to go to the ancient one for help.
·····
Time flies, and it comes to Christmas this year. This was Tom's first year in the world according to Western customs.
The mutants in Hell's Kitchen celebrate wildly because they don't have to be hunted down by the matchmaker's military, they don't have to go into hiding, they don't have to despair about the world.
Tom, on the other hand, didn't get too involved.
First, he had just received the Spiritual Power Feedback Method, and he was in an extremely high enthusiasm for cultivation. Second, Tom is still used to the New Year in his previous life after all. Celebrating Christmas with a bunch of crooked nuts strikes him as weird.
With the arrival of Christmas, the government and military of the matchmaker country have died down and followed S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra to the world in search of legendary powers like the Ancient One. The whole of New York seemed to be quiet in an instant.
There are no pursuers going around hunting mutants, no overwhelming media condemnation and criticism of mutants. Only all New Yorkers, cheering and looking forward to the new year.
Of course, there are still supercriminals who make trouble every few days. However, as long as it is a real New Yorker. I have long been accustomed to this. After all, the targets of super criminals will definitely not be their group of ordinary people. As long as it's not the unlucky head-on. Whether or not there are supercriminals causing trouble has little to do with the citizens of New York.
After Christmas, Hell's Kitchen ushered in a wave of population joining. Whether it's a normal human or a mutant.
After all, New York, as the political center of the matchmaker, can be described as a matter of land. Stowaways who seek to make money and New Yorkers who go bankrupt for a variety of reasons simply cannot afford the high cost of living in other parts of New York.
For these people, Hell's Kitchen is the only option they have if they want to stay alive. Although, there are gangsters, criminals, and, legendary mutants.
This is also the reason why, when mutants and the military were at war before, the Punisher and Daredevil would take a group of good people to seek refuge from the mutants. Hell's Kitchen is not only about gangsters and criminals.
As for more and more mutants entering Hell's Kitchen, it's a matter of course. You must know that as time passes, Hell's Kitchen has been secretly occupied and occupied by the Brotherhood and the Warden, and has turned from a filthy place into a piece of mutant paradise, which has been widely spread among mutants.
In this case, the mutants of the whole New York and even the entire matchmaker country frantically poured into Hell's Kitchen, which was also expected by Tom and Magneto.
·····
"As of now, there are more than 130,000 humans and more than 2,000 mutants in Hell's Kitchen. The number of members of our watchmen has now increased to 337, and the population of our jurisdiction is more than 40,000 people... ”
Entering the new year, one day in January, the high-ups of the Watchmen once again converge in the high-rise building that Tom named the Pioneer Building. Meetings were held to discuss the recent developments of the Watchmen. Also, make a development plan for the next period of time.
"What's wrong with you, dear, I see you've been lately、People are always confused。 And, I noticed that the dark circles on your face seem to have disappeared as well? What happened? ”
Just as the dreamer was making a report in a loud voice, Long Legs suddenly pushed Tom in a daze, and then asked in a low voice.
"Rest assured, there is nothing wrong with my body. I'll tell you about the details after the meeting... ”
After whispering to Long Legs, Tom pulled himself together and began to listen carefully to the Dreamer's report.
·····
"Sure enough, there is still a serious shortage of humans and mutants in our jurisdiction."
The meeting ended quickly. After all, such a meeting, a watchman high-level, would be held once a week. As he staggered back, Tom said to his long legs.
130,000 humans, more than 2,000 mutants, sounds like a lot of people. However, once spread over the whole Hell's Kitchen, it's pitiful.
You know, the entire Manhattan district has a population of more than 2 million. Hell's Kitchen, on the other hand, is about one-fifth the size of Manhattan. Before the Great War between the Mutants and the military, Hell's Kitchen had a population of nearly half a million people. Isn't it very small when you compare the number of people in Hell's Kitchen today?
The reason for the sparse population in Hell's Kitchen is that the original Hell's Kitchen is really the lowest and dirtiest place in New York. Looking at the population of Hell's Kitchen before the Great War, and the population of Hell's Kitchen after the Great War, it should not be difficult for everyone to guess how many gangsters and criminals were slaughtered by military soldiers and mutants in the previous Great War.
As for why there are less than 340 of the more than 2,000 mutants in Hell's Kitchen, Tom thinks this situation is normal.
This time, it's not because of the disparity in prestige between the Warden and the Brotherhood. You know, there are more than 900 mutants willing to live in the Warden's jurisdiction, which is almost the same as the Brotherhood.
The reason for the current situation is mainly because the gap in combat effectiveness between mutant individuals is too large.
Mutants are divided into six levels in total, and in fact, mutants at the first, alpha, second, and double tower levels have strong combat effectiveness. These two levels account for only twenty percent of the total number of mutants.
The remaining three, Dota, fourth, Ipsilon, fifth, and gamma are seventy to eighty percent of the mutant race. However, these people do not want to say that they have strong combat effectiveness, and some of them can't even live alone.
As for the legendary omega-level, it is simply rare. As far as Tom knew, Jean Grey seemed to be the only one at the moment. Moreover, this gang was also a big bomb in the movie plot of the previous life.
Therefore, out of more than 2,000 mutants, more than 500 Brotherhood members and more than 300 Warden members can be screened, which is already a very high rate. Moreover, this is all caused by the previous media country military, the wanton arrest and killing of mutants. Those mutants who are not strong enough to protect themselves will not be able to wait for this day at all.
"It's already good, and as time goes on, I'm sure we'll have more and more humans and mutants under our control. Oh, by the way, so far, sixteen more people have passed the test of the Yao Room Phoenix. Blue light rings, do you want to distribute them to them? ”
"Of course, the Blue Ring Holder is the current backbone of our Warden. It is certainly a cause for joy that their membership has been able to increase. In a moment, you can send all the Blue Rings to the Watchman brothers who have passed the test, and I will take the time to manifest another batch of Light Rings.
By the way, among these newly passed Blue Ring holders, is there a North Star? ”
Someone passed the assessment of Yao Murohuang, and of course Tom was happy. In the case of mutants' uneven abilities, the mutants with the Blue Lantern Ring are undoubtedly the most stable combat power among the Watchmen. The increase in the number of Blue Ring holders undoubtedly means that the overall strength of the Watchers has increased.
Hearing Tom mention Polaris, Long Legs couldn't help but pout: "No, this girl has been sad about this recently." Do you know, dear? Among the brothers who passed the test this time, there was a little naughty who had been transferred from the X-Men before. That is, the one that can absorb the power of others. ”
