Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 12 Gravity Training
Ning Fengzhi has an almost obsessive sensitivity to numerical values.

Han Tao understood just how difficult this so-called supplementary study list was after only glancing at the table of contents.

The "real-time buff" is already annoying enough, but then there's the "distraction control method," which means you need to provide various buffs to your teammates simultaneously and in multiple threads.

This places extremely high demands on an individual's computing power, judgment, and numerical acuity.

"Let's talk."

Han Tao flipped to the end of the book list.

The content above is getting more and more outrageous. It says that the ultimate control of the field is the birth of the [Multi-Dimensional Realm], "turning the past into the known, deducing from reality, and making the development of the world as easy as reading the lines on the palm of your hand." And the actual battle record shows that "seven peak Douluo fought against the Storm God, three died and the god fell."

"What a load of bull!"

Han Tao closed the book. He didn't believe it. In the Douluo Continent, where great power belongs to oneself, it was laughable and absurd for a mortal to want to defy the gods.

However, this does not diminish his respect for the first half of the book list.

"Does Ning Rongrong know how to do this?"

Han Tao found it strange. He had read the original novel and had never seen Ning Rongrong act so outrageously.

"Could it be that Grandmaster and Tang San led her astray?"

"A support-type Soul Master who abandoned the pursuit of [control] and focused solely on self-preservation."

"Perhaps in their eyes, Ning Rongrong was just an accessory."

However, Han Tao was still puzzled as to why Ning Fengzhi's performance in the original work was so terrible.

It can't be said to be completely terrible, but compared to what's described in the book list, the two are far from being good.

Suddenly, a terrible possibility began to take shape in his mind.

"Whether Qian Renxue wins or Tang San wins, he will be the beneficiary."

"Ning Rongrong has gained the key to victory."

Han Tao quickly suppressed his thoughts.

This is just his guess, and guesses will always remain just guesses.

Besides, he didn't think Ning Fengzhi was that awesome.

"This is Xiao Yuan, a level 54 offensive Soul Master. His fourth Soul Skill is called Gravity Suppression, which can cause double the gravity effect on the enemy."

At the drill ground in the center of the mountains, Steward Ning found an extremely strong middle-aged man.

He introduced it to Han Tao.

"This is Han Tao."

After Han Tao became a Soul Master, he could receive gold Soul Coins from the Spirit Hall every month, and the money could greatly improve his meals.

Han Tao wasn't thin at the moment, but compared to Xiao Yuan, he was far inferior.

"Since it is the sect leader's order, I will naturally complete the task. Tell me, what do you need?"

His voice was neither humble nor arrogant; even though he looked down on Han Tao, he didn't show it on his face.

"I need your gravity soul skill to assist me in my cultivation."

Xiao Yuan nodded and stretched out his hands to summon his martial spirit.

"Bear, possess me!"

Bear-type martial souls are very likely to acquire gravity-based skills. This is a detailed study in "Sixteen Methods for Enhancing Attack-type Soul Masters at Each Stage". Han Tao had read it once, and now seeing Xiao Yuan's Violent Bear just confirms the knowledge in the book.

"Fourth Soul Skill, Giant Lizard's Might!"

Xiao Yuan's soul power and gravity were transmitted from afar, and Han Tao could feel an extremely strong pressure on his body, like a shackle binding his fate. The increase in gravity was not the same as carrying equipment; the suppression brought by gravity would penetrate into every cell of the body and every muscle tissue.

jump!
"Reduce the intensity!" Han Tao shouted immediately.

Hearing Han Tao's urgent voice, Xiao Yuan smiled slightly and slowed down the output of his soul power.

Xiao Yuan's soul power pressure just now actually caused Han Tao's soul power level to break through, and Han Tao's soul power level has now reached 13.

This situation often occurs in the original work: when a high-level Soul Master exerts pressure on a low-level Soul Master, it is easy for the Soul Master to break through the level barrier under the suppression of Soul Power.

Essentially, it's because higher-level Soul Masters bring a stronger impact of Soul Power.

This surge of soul power widened the meridians of low-level soul masters, thus prompting them to level up.

However, this comes at a price.

The pressure of other people's soul power doesn't care whether your body can handle it. These soul power impacts will widen your meridians while damaging your tiny capillaries and blood vessels.

Damaged capillaries can actually help the body recover, but once the capillaries are damaged, they are damaged.

Therefore, this is essentially a form of compensation, squeezing out one's own potential in exchange for an increase in soul power level.

For someone like Tang San, who has innate full soul power and the Mysterious Heaven Technique, the lack of potential is not a problem at all.

Han Tao can also ignore these things.

Because his first soul skill is deep healing, which can repair his own capillaries.

"That's enough, that's about the right intensity, keep it up."

At Han Tao's request, Xiao Yuan kept increasing or decreasing his soul power output until Han Tao finally stopped him at a certain appropriate point.

Gravity permeated every part of Han Tao's body—skin, muscles, bones, meridians, and internal organs. It was clear that his internal organs were far less able to withstand gravity than other parts of his body, which affected the effectiveness of his training.

Han Tao didn't have any techniques for strengthening his internal organs, and he didn't even have any common body-strengthening techniques, so he could only use those common training methods.

However, his body-refining effects were better than those taught by Yu Xiaogang.

Zhao Wuji's gravity field was never used by Yu Xiaogang for body tempering. The master's teaching had three strategies: running, running, and weighted running.

Exercise, treatment, and nutrition are interconnected. Han Tao couldn't understand why Shrek Academy, with its excellent food and medical care, could conduct such high-intensity training.

In just one month, Han Tao's physique broke through the 10 mark, a stat that is now at the mid-level of a level 10 Haotian Hammer.

However, his soul power and mental strength were still weak, no different from ordinary Blue Silver Grass Soul Masters.

At this moment, Han Tao encountered some minor problems.

Xiao Yuan had some complaints about him because Han Tao's training required him to use his fourth soul skill for extended periods of time.

This was clearly an insult to a level 55 Soul Master, as Han Tao's Soul Power level and combat strength were extremely weak.

Han Tao isn't Ning Rongrong; he doesn't have any noble status. Why should I assist him in his training like this?
"I feel so wronged, so damn wronged!"

Han Tao had keen senses and he noticed Xiao Yuan's opinion of him.

Xiao Yuan was bound by the sect leader's orders and could not directly refuse him, but he could still cause trouble.

For example, when using soul skills, the output of soul power fluctuates, making it impossible for one to train properly.

Or they might use a soul skill for a while, then say they need to rest and recover, wasting both of their time.

Something has to be done.

Although such a situation has not yet occurred, if we do nothing, the future is uncertain.
