Ling Yi ultimately decided to put on hold further observations of the human body's organs for the time being.

Given the current calm state of affairs at Cold Wind Camp, there was basically no chance of soldiers sustaining injuries to their internal organs. Even if there were some internal injuries or shock injuries, the existence of the Healing Soul Skill made it difficult for Ling Yi to have the opportunity to treat and observe them slowly.

Therefore, Ling Yi restrained his eagerness and instead focused on the cultivation of Spiritual Power, exploration of Meridians, and experimentation with the Principle of Soul Skill Operation.

Of course, this did not mean completely abandoning the study of biological organ structure, but rather not rushing into it, acting with more restraint.

Following this, Ling Yi's daily schedule remained as regular and peaceful as before.

At night, he alternated between cultivation and deep sleep without fail.

Every morning, Ling Yi would head to the Soul Master-exclusive cafeteria for a breakfast that, while not lavish, was absolutely nutritious. After the meal, he would review the notes he had recorded the previous day and ponder their content.

After a brief digestion period, he would practice the various forms of the Basic Body Strengthening Exercise—Cat Form, Dog Form, Chicken Form, Rabbit Form, and the Horse Form he had created during his six months at Cold Wind Camp—on the 'Blue Silver Grass' field behind his tent.

After about an hour, Ling Yi would make a round of the Third Medical Battalion's injured soldiers' tents, observing the recovery progress of each patient. Occasionally, he would use the 'First Soul Skill: Vitality Flourishing' to aid their recovery and engage in friendly conversations.

The duration of this process depended on the number of injured soldiers. When there were fewer patients, it would take only an hour or so, but when there were more, it might take the entire morning.

Most of the time, Ling Yi would finish interacting with the injured soldiers before lunch. During the lunch and pre-lunch period, he would review the state of the patients' wounds during the activation of soul skills and the changes in his own Martial Soul, Soul Ring, and soul skills when linked with Spiritual Power. He would also deduce the route of Spiritual Power circulation in the Meridians.

Speaking of which, it's worth mentioning the soul skills carried within the Soul Ring.

After Ling Yi's research, the soul skills within the Soul Ring, while similar to the skills in a mage's skill bar, were more like skill stones or spell scrolls that could be recharged and reused.

When activated by one's own Spiritual Power, magic power, or other energies, they would emit various effects—attacks, defenses, buffs, or control effects.

Influenced by the numerous novel ideas from his previous life, Ling Yi naturally conceived the idea of replicating the operational principles of these individual skills. By learning and practicing, he aimed to bypass the Soul Ring's trigger and directly perform the corresponding soul skills.

If he could achieve this, Ling Yi would have the potential to break free from the limitation of one soul skill per Soul Ring, except in special cases like Soul Bones.

Unfortunately, the speed at which Spiritual Power circulated during the use of soul skills was too fast, and a significant portion of the process occurred within the Soul Ring. This made Ling Yi's current soul skill imprinting plan progress slowly.

From the acquisition of his first Soul Ring in October last year to now, over eight months and about 240 days, Ling Yi had used the 'First Soul Skill: Vitality Flourishing' no less than 800 times!

Through repeated observations, he had only managed to perfect the record of the Spiritual Power circulation routes within his Meridians. The conversion of Spiritual Power within the Soul Ring, which resembled a magical array, could only be constructed as a whole in his mind. He could not break it down, let alone transfer it to his Meridians for imprinting.

In the end, Ling Yi's time was still too limited, and the tasks he needed to accomplish were too numerous. These projects, which could enhance his strength and deepen his foundation, were interconnected and difficult to prioritize. He could only arrange them reasonably based on their importance and the availability of resources.

It was only because he had mastered the skill of deep sleep and could use it to recover his state that Ling Yi's progress was as fast as it was. One hour of deep sleep was equivalent to eight hours of high-quality sleep, allowing both his mind and body to recover. This enabled him to use one day as if it were two or even three, complemented by his powerful thinking ability, making him appear as a genius in the eyes of others.

After lunch each day, unless there were many injured soldiers, Ling Yi would always take an hour of deep sleep as a midday rest, simultaneously recovering the energy spent in the morning, especially the mental effort required for observing and deducing the principles of various situations while using soul skills.

Since ancient times, deep emotions have not led to longevity, and extreme wisdom often brings harm. The consequence of excessive mental exertion is mental and physical exhaustion.

Using his 'Basic Super Ego State' to activate his mental energy and enhance his understanding and computational abilities, Ling Yi, though not as advanced as someone who had taken 'NZT-48' to boost brain frequency, still achieved some of its effects.

Accordingly, the mental energy or brain cell consumption could not be taken lightly.

From his previous life, Ling Yi remembered a nursing professional telling him, 'The Heart houses the spirit, the Lungs house the vital energy, the Liver houses the soul, the Spleen houses the will, and the Kidneys house the essence.' Therefore, whenever he felt mentally exhausted, he would use the 'First Soul Skill: Vitality Flourishing' to nourish his organs with active energy, and then use deep sleep to repair and nourish his organs, body, and mental energy.

In the afternoon, after a good nap, with his energy and spirit fully restored, Ling Yi would decide whether to go to the military engineering camp's forging area to practice the Chaotic Wind Hammer Technique. Through forging, he would strengthen his physical constitution and understand the subtleties of force circulation during hammering.

At the same time, he would discuss and exchange insights with senior blacksmiths like Brother Xue on the changes in various metals during high temperatures and forging, as well as the reactions when different metals were melted together.

If he didn't go to the military engineering camp, Ling Yi would find the Old Medicine Man and the other three to either exchange insights on treating injuries or research the properties and combinations of various herbs, personally verifying the different reactions of various herbs when applied externally or taken orally.

Yes, in very small doses.

Before dinner, Ling Yi would find the injured soldiers still in the Third Medical Battalion and ask them to summon their Martial Souls. While observing, he would use the 'First Soul Skill: Vitality Flourishing' and attach his mental energy to the active energy to more deeply investigate the physical conditions of these soldiers and the Martial Souls they possessed.

Then, he would return to his tent with a head full of data, organize and summarize it, and briefly record it in his notebook.

Cold Wind Camp, with its official roster of around 20,000 soldiers and several thousand support personnel, had seen Ling Yi treat about 2,000 injured soldiers and 1,200 support personnel with minor ailments.

This was a substantial data source, including over 900 owners of tool-type Martial Souls and nearly 300 owners of beast-type Martial Souls.

In the book Ling Yi had written, *Tool-Type Martial Souls*, he recorded over 900 tool-type Martial Souls, including knives, spears, swords, axes, sticks, hammers, forks, whips, spears, and rakes, among other weapons.

Similarly, these weapons had subcategories, such as knives, which could be further divided into chopping knives, straight knives, saber knives, and sickles.

In another book, *Avian-Type Martial Souls*, he recorded various birds, such as sparrows, swallows, seagulls, and other small avian types, as well as eagles, hawks, cranes, and geese, among medium and large avian types.

In addition, there was *Beast-Type Martial Souls*, which included cats, dogs, pigs, wolves, lions, tigers, bears, and more.

All these Martial Souls followed a rule: the stronger the quality of the Martial Soul, the stronger the physical constitution of its owner, and the higher the chance of generating Spiritual Power!

Conversely, would a stronger individual have a higher chance of awakening a higher-quality Martial Soul and generating innate Spiritual Power?

While in Mountain Sea Village, Ling Yi had speculated about this, but due to the small number of people and the lack of frequent close contact, he could not verify it.

After coming to Cold Wind Camp, with the abundant resources available, Ling Yi finally had the opportunity to initially verify and confirm his previous hypothesis.

This would greatly facilitate his future efforts in nurturing the children of his fellow villagers and like-minded individuals, particularly in determining whether they could possess innate Spiritual Power.
