Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 251 Synchronized Microstructure of Innate Soul Power
"Humph!"

Dugu Bo snorted coldly, and then, as if he didn't believe in evil, he summoned his martial soul again and activated the third soul ring above the Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor.

Third Soul Skill: Azure Phosphorous Bite!
One offensive failed, so another was launched.

The pale green Jade Phosphorus Serpent King suddenly opened its blood-red maw and lunged at Han Tao.

The countless blue silver grass seeds emitted a faint light, scattered yet vast, as the soul skill information released by Dugu Bo was transmitted to Han Tao's mind one by one.

"Azure Phosphorous Devour".

"An action-type martial soul, which uses soul power to drive the martial soul to perform offensive actions."

Han Tao's brain was working at an extremely fast pace.

The essence of this soul skill was gradually dissected through the power of perception.

"This kind of soul skill is the most difficult to counter!"

Han Tao sighed inwardly, thinking, "Dugu Bo has really given me a tough problem."

Although it was only his third spirit ring, with an age limit of only a thousand years, the type of spirit skill was quite complex, making it far more difficult to deal with than the previous "Medusa's Gaze".

"First Soul Skill, Firefly!"

The Azure Phosphorous Serpent King possesses a microscopic structure of soul power; however, even with simulations using ordinary soul power frequencies, it is impossible to shake the higher-level microscopic structure of soul power.

"Therefore, we must use innate soul power!"

Innate soul power is the universal key. Han Tao activated the Mysterious Heaven Skill and used his innate soul power to construct "fireflies," which were in the opposite direction to the frequency of "Azure Phosphorous Devouring," completely disintegrating the special soul power attached to the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King.

"Not enough!" Han Tao said calmly.

Simultaneously employing the distraction control technique, the second soul skill was also unleashed, and the Blue Silver Bamboo was retrieved with exquisite skill, precisely striking the vital point of the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King.

It may not be a lot of force, but it is crucial.

The Blue Silver Bamboo was quite fragile, and it immediately crumbled and scattered after completing this step of the attack.

"Boom!"

"Impossible!" Dugu Bo was stunned.

Because the enormous Azure Phosphorous Serpent King, whose size, aura, and soul power fluctuations were even ten times that of Han Tao, was actually crushed and overturned by the small Blue Silver Bamboo.

"Abnormal"

Ye Junlan glanced at Ye Lingling, her face full of suspicion: "This goes against the common sense of Douluo Continent. Since when can a Soul King fight a Title Douluo?"

"If the first defense could be attributed to luck and a clever trick, this one is a genuine and solid defense. Could it be..."

He glanced at Poison Douluo. Although this guy wasn't that strong among the titled Douluo, in their eyes he was the strongest, the kind who could kill a whole group with his poison.

After hesitating for a while, he finally swallowed his pride and asked his daughter:
Do you know what Han Tao's first soul skill is?

“Fluorescent grass.” Ye Lingling said without looking up.

Ye Junlan and Ye Lingling were both observing the changes on the battlefield, but they came to completely different conclusions.

Ye Junlan believes that Han Tao was able to block Dugu Bo's attack entirely because his first soul skill was powerful enough, and she also wants to find a way to get one.

However, Ye Lingling understood that refining innate soul power and the [microscopic structure of soul power], and using reverse wave frequency to dissipate the soul power of the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King, was only the first step.

Without "Azure Phosphorous Soul Power", there is naturally no need for [Synchronous Penetration].

The Blue Silver Bamboo can easily manipulate microscopic forces to precisely thwart the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King.

"only."

"Since it doesn't require the same frequency of soul power, why use Blue Silver Bamboo? Wouldn't it be better to choose a harder type of bamboo?"

No soul power is needed; weapons can be completely replaced by external objects.

This was her idea, and it was quite insightful, so Han Tao replied: "The Blue Silver Bamboo, in the form of a martial soul evolution, is also an extension of a soul master's perception."

"Through the instant the Blue Silver Bamboo and the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King came into contact, I have learned the overall structure of the Martial Soul. When it collides again, the Martial Soul will shatter as its farewell."

"The evolved forms of a martial soul are an extension of a soul master's perception." Ye Lingling nodded slightly. This knowledge was useless to her.

After all, a Nine-Hearted Begonia Soul Master wouldn't be so bored as to pursue offensive capabilities.

Upon hearing Han Tao's words, Dugu Bo felt a sudden surge of fear.

His two soul skills were destroyed in an incomprehensible way. Perhaps, as Han Tao said, they would be destroyed in the next attack.
"So be it!" Poison Douluo sighed.

He slowly put away the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King, his whole body swayed slightly, and his body cleverly retreated two meters with the sway.

"Since you have the same strength as me, you naturally have the right to talk. I will not pursue your mistakes for the time being."

Poison Douluo spoke calmly, his finger lightly pointing to the porcelain bottle at Han Tao's waist.

"Oh?" Han Tao seemed a little surprised and asked directly, "How did you find out?"

He smiled and explained, "I've eaten the immortal herb and can sense the aura of other immortal herbs, but what surprised me was..."

"You didn't eat the immortal herb?"

"What, is Ning Fengzhi too stingy to give it to you?"

Han Tao gave an awkward smile.

He once truly desired the immortal herb, but now he is grateful.

When Blue Silver Grass is weak, consuming any other immortal herb will cause it to evolve into a form closer to that of an immortal herb, thus stifling its potential for further improvement.

The ultimate martial soul represents the strength of a divine herb, and also its maximum potential for evolution.

"if."

"Given another chance to choose, I would still resolutely abandon the immortal herb!"

At this moment, Han Tao's will was firm.

But that's a joke. When the magical herb actually appears in front of a weak person like myself, how could I possibly refuse such an existence?
"Fine."

Poison Douluo didn't bother to ask any further questions.

The attempt to sow discord between Han Tao and Ning Fengzhi was merely a casual remark, and its effectiveness was irrelevant.

"Since your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has mastered the method to reach the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, could you please tell me the method?"

"Why?" Ye Junlan asked curiously.

She simply couldn't understand what was so good about the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye that made so many people flock to it.

Upon hearing her question, Dugu Bo hesitated slightly.

However, he quickly came to terms with it. He was going to die anyway, so keeping these secrets was pointless: "Because of the poison of the immortal herb."

"I once ate two immortal herbs, the Seven Absolute Azure Phosphorus Flower, which evolved my martial soul from the Azure Phosphorus Serpent into the Azure Phosphorus Serpent Emperor!"

Han Tao nodded. The Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor is the ruler of the Azure Phosphorous Serpents. Only one ruler can be born in the same clan, and it belongs to the top-level martial soul.

"The immortal herb is the ultimate, while the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King is only top-tier. How can I be satisfied?"

"So, I ate the second immortal herb."

The conflict between the magical herbs was extremely fierce.

Dugu Bo is still alive today, which is entirely due to his good fortune and long life.

"Only by relying on the natural magnetic field of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well can the conflicting immortal herbs within my body be resolved."

Ye Lingling suddenly looked up: "Then how did you survive?"

Ye Junlan hurriedly tried to pull her behind her, as such rude behavior would anger a Title Douluo, but she missed again.

Dugu Bo glared at her, but did not pursue her mistake, mainly because he had no way to deal with the illusion.

Then he raised his head, confident and calm: "Because of my ninth soul skill!"
