Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 212 High-Level Elements
Therefore, Han Tao entrusted Ning Tian to meet Chrysanthemum Douluo: Yue Guan in Wuhun City!

He bowed respectfully: "Elder Ju!"

Upon seeing Han Tao approach, his face lit up like a chrysanthemum, his smile radiant: "Young friend Han Tao, what brings you here today?"

"Let's discuss martial spirits!" Han Tao said.

Chrysanthemum Douluo poured Han Tao a cup of tea, then closed the door: "Judging from your appearance, you've encountered a barrier in your martial spirit?"

Han Tao nodded: "Indeed!"

"I've come here to ask about the method to break through to the ultimate martial soul!"

This theory is quite precious, but compared to the [Heaven and Earth Piercing] that Han Tao customized for Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo, it's not too private.
Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression turned serious as he began to explain: "Generally speaking, there are three methods."

“Similar to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and the Nine Heart Begonia, these are the ultimate martial souls chosen by heaven and completely unreplicable.”

"I'll just mention it briefly here, but I won't go into detail."

Han Tao nodded.

Even after consuming the supreme immortal herb "Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum," Ning Tian only advanced to the "Eight Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda," just like Ning Fengzhi, and could hardly reach the edge of the "Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda."

The topic didn't linger for long; Chrysanthemum Douluo continued his explanation:

"The second method is to absorb one element!"

Han Tao considered for a moment: "Martial Soul absorbs elements?"

"Seven elements, four lower elements, and three higher elements."

The four subordinate elements are: water, fire, wind, and earth.
The three higher-order elements include: light, darkness, and space.

"The four lower-level elements are quite demanding. For example, with the fire element, you must reach the energy level of the ultimate fire to push your martial soul to its maximum strength!"

"However, if your martial soul possesses superior elements..." Chrysanthemum Douluo suddenly paused.

He activated his mental detection to check if anyone was watching him from the surroundings, and the sounds gradually became fainter.

"How is it?" Han Tao raised his hand and used his soundproofing technique.

"High-level elements don't require so much trouble," Chrysanthemum Douluo added softly, "As long as your martial soul possesses even a tiny bit of light power, it's guaranteed to be an ultimate martial soul!"

Within the Golden Sacred Dragon, the power of light is not pure, but it far surpasses the scope of top-tier martial souls.

Six-winged angels, the ultimate element of light, need no further explanation!

"Can a martial soul reach its ultimate form simply by drawing upon a high-level element?"

Han Tao was puzzled.

Considering the original novel's Light Dragon King, with his ultimate light element, capable of defeating five Asura Gods, everything is understandable.

Ironically, the evolutionary path of Dark Blue Silver Grass does not actually involve the dark element.

"Hmm?" Han Tao hesitated.

"Currently, there are no precedents for the evolution of high-level elements that can be referenced in the evolutionary path of Blue Silver Grass."

"If I want to take this path, I have to explore it all myself, which is extremely difficult."

Trying to choose the simplest method, Han Tao asked again, "Could it be..."

"How can we achieve the same effect by replacing a higher-order element with a higher-order property?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo was slightly surprised: "Of course!"

"For example, my martial soul, the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, is an ultimate martial soul because it possesses the characteristic of 'reaching the heavens'!"

"The 'Heavenly Connecting' characteristic is equivalent to a lower-level element, but the 'Heavenly Connecting Form' characteristic combines with Ghost Douluo's 'Drawing Down to the Netherworld,' and the fusion results in a higher-level characteristic, which is equivalent to the value of a higher-level element."

"The fusion of low-level characteristics?" Han Tao's eyes suddenly lit up.

Ordinary information, yet it has already provided me with the answer.

The Destruction God King among the five great god kings must possess a high-level destructive power!
Destructive power = Devouring + Annihilation
Devouring is precisely the evolutionary path of the Dark Blue Silver Grass. "With devouring as its core, the evolutionary path of the Dark Blue Silver Grass has reached its end."

"With destruction at its core, the evolutionary path of Blue Silver Grass has not yet begun."

The martial spirit has gained new room for growth.

This discovery is certainly something to be thankful for.

Although taking the other path, "Annihilation," will present various problems, and there is no precedent for its integration, it is enough to satisfy me to be able to develop a new path!
Even though the [Destruction] route deviates from the [Blue Silver] cluster strategy, who has the right to be picky right now?
"As for obliteration."

In the original work, there is a martial spirit that exhibits the power of annihilation: the Rouge Dragon!

However, the problem is that with the current base strength of Blue Silver Grass, it may not be able to withstand the [Destruction] property.

These characteristics are far too domineering and require careful consideration.
Han Tao continued to ask:

"What about the third evolutionary path?"

Although he had already obtained the direction of evolution, it did not prevent Han Tao from obtaining more information.

Chrysanthemum Douluo: "Use the immortal herb!"

“Choose an existing immortal herb that is similar to your martial soul, and evolve it according to its characteristics. There is also a chance to advance into an ultimate martial soul.”

Each of these miraculous herbs contains an ultimate characteristic!
For example, the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass is relatively similar to the Blue Silver Grass. If we study its characteristics for ten years or so, the Blue Silver Grass can also evolve into the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass.

But if we do that...
Taking it a step further will be extremely difficult.

Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression suddenly faltered: "Could it be...?"
He looked at the porcelain vase at Han Tao's waist, his eyes pleading: "Let me see it. The Love-Sick Heartbreak Red?"

Han Tao, though puzzled, did not refuse and handed the small white flower to Yue Guan.

Because it hadn't gained the approval of the Acacia Heartbreak Red, this flower was exceptionally delicate. Yue Guan carefully took it, cradled it in her arms, and sighed, "Alas."

"if."

"If only I had experienced unrequited love back then!"

Looking longingly at this immortal herb, it seemed to contain a great deal of emotion, which ultimately turned into helplessness.

for a long time
Finally, the Acacia Heartbreak Red was returned.

In a somber tone: "I'd like to tell you some additional information."

"The Love-Sickness-Breaking Red is a divine treasure among immortal herbs!"

"I once reached the outer perimeter of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire. All the immortal herbs inside could only reach the ultimate level, except for her."

"She is the only divine being!" Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression was exceptionally firm.

Han Tao was briefly stunned: "She's a divine-grade item?"

"Ok!"

"All right."

Han Tao knew that he was probably not qualified to gain her approval.
Although it was still in his own hands, he felt particularly distressed upon learning that the Acacia Heartbreak Red was of divine quality.

"So desirable yet unattainable!"

Shaking one's head ultimately turns into a sigh.

Chrysanthemum Douluo smiled, clearly understanding Han Tao's situation: "You don't need to be too disappointed!"

"The red acacia blossom is a flower, not a grass!"

Even if you can make her reveal her true form, you can't use her to evolve your Blue Silver Grass!

Han Tao slightly raised his hand, and the diary in the illusion was taken out.

Both effective methods for advancing to the ultimate martial soul are recorded in the diary.
