Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 288 Nine-Colored Glazed Body Bones

Han Tao sorted out his thoughts.

Since a problem has arisen, it is natural to reflect on it.

Defeat requires reflection.

Even in victory, reflection is still necessary.

"Analyzing reality, the development of events needs to follow two logics: one is the interference of fate in the dark, and the other is the operating rules of reality."

"The flow and changes of the power of destiny are difficult for me to perceive with my current methods, but the underlying dynamics of reality must be clearly understood."

Han Tao scrutinized Ning Fengzhi, then stepped forward slightly and unleashed his first soul skill.

"Master, how is the situation?"

"I'm alright!" Ning Fengzhi took two deep breaths and recovered his composure.

Seeing Bone Douluo guarding him, he asked Han Tao, "Where's Uncle Jian?"

Bone Douluo breathed a sigh of relief and said frankly, "He went to chase after Tang Hao, but I feel that with his level, he probably won't be able to catch up!"

After a moment's hesitation, Han Tao offered his explanation:
"This time, the toxins in Master's body were triggered, perhaps because of the Blue Silver Poison Barrier."

"Oh?" Ning Fengzhi looked up.

Han Tao considered for a moment and explained:

“In fact, the location where I used my soul skill was at least two hundred steps away from you, Master, but my Azure Phosphorus Poison Barrier does not have such a wide range.”

Bone Douluo asked, "What is the reason for that?"

Ning Fengzhi frowned: "Perhaps... some other force has intervened."

"I was poisoned by the ultimate poison of immortal herbs and the poison of jade phosphorus. The poison took effect at the time of day and night. Only a few people know about this situation."

"On the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School side, only a few high-ranking members know about it: Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, Yang Wudi, Rongrong, Han Tao, and Elder Guardian."

Ning Fengzhi glanced at him casually, without showing any doubt, and continued, "Besides the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ye Junlan also knows about my situation."

Han Tao chuckled: "Ye Junlan is a person who values ​​etiquette. Revealing other people's secrets is against the etiquette of Yuexuan."

"Oh, you even know that!"

Bone Douluo was taken aback.

Han Tao, however, remained serious.

Within the illusion, one after another human figures suddenly rise up, and the logic behind each person's actions is reproduced through reasoning.

Of the vast majority of possibilities, Han Tao chose the most likely option:

"The four single-attribute families were once affiliated with the Haotian Sect."

Ning Fengzhi frowned: "Are you doubting Yang Wudi?"

"No, the first one to be ruled out is the Po clan. I think the most likely one is the Min clan."

"The Min clan is particularly skilled in reconnaissance, and the timing of Yang Wudi's defection to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School coincided with the short period after you, Master, were poisoned."

"They were investigating why Yang Wudi joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and it's highly likely that they also discovered your poisoning at the same time, which led to this casual writing."

Bone Douluo's expression froze: "This..."

"You've drawn such an absurd conclusion from such a fragment of information?"

Ning Fengzhi believed it to some extent, but did not express his opinion: "These are just your speculations!"

As the sect leader, one cannot easily express an opinion on holding a faction accountable, especially in public.

"Ok!"

Han Tao nodded.

But he did not continue the story.

His gaze pierced through the armor of the Imperial Guards, and amidst the myriad searches, he found something extraordinary.

"Rongrong?"

Through the gaps in the armor, a pair of bright eyes and strands of clear, beautiful hair peeked out.

"How could she be here? Has she been in the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace the whole time?" Han Tao's voice did not come through.
Because Ning Fengzhi reacted quickly, he activated the soundproofing technique in the blink of an eye.

"Yes!" Ning Fengzhi said calmly.

"As you've probably noticed, under normal circumstances, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will not send out two Title Douluos at the same time; they will always leave one to guard the sect."

"However, there is one exception!"

Ning Fengzhi had barely finished speaking when Rongrong's sweet, clear voice rang out.

After the incident was over, he removed his armor, returned behind Bone Douluo, and stared wide-eyed at Han Tao's nose.

“This matter is very important!”

"Just like when I used to eat the herbal jelly."

Rongrong blinked, her hair swaying in the sunlight, and a dimple appeared on one side of her mouth.

"What's wrong?" Han Tao asked, puzzled.

"I've been researching the microstructure of soul power lately, haven't I?"

"According to the available information, soul bones that are over 50,000 years old can produce the negative effect of [structural erosion], but this phenomenon is not without its own possibilities."

Bone Douluo's face stiffened: "What is structural erosion?"

"And then?" Han Tao asked.

"As you said before, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda does not have an original soul bone, but there are gemstone soul bones in this world, such as your Illusionary Wisdom Skull."

"Okay!" Han Tao nodded.

Ning Fengzhi added, "The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is the sublimation of a gemstone martial soul. Is there a way to create a soul bone that can be made from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda?"

Han Tao suddenly realized.

The hidden information within now has a corresponding explanation.

The flaws in the palace's array and the disappearance of Emperor Xueye's golden gem were all Ning Rongrong's doing.
"Nine gems of different colors, through the sublimation method inherited by the sect, condensed into a nine-colored glazed body bone."

"Based on the Nine-Colored Glazed Body Bone, I have achieved the simulation of the [microstructure] of soul power. Now, I can simulate the [bamboo joint structure] of soul power through soul bone techniques!"

Ning Rongrong's voice was filled with joy and happiness.

However, people's joys and sorrows are not shared. Sword Douluo looked dejected and returned in a hurry without saying a word.

"What's wrong, Grandpa Jian?"

Rongrong looked up and grabbed Sword Douluo's beard.

With a slight tug, Chen Xin pretended to howl, "That bastard Tang Hao is a damn fast runner."

"But I cut off his arm with my sword, hehehe."

"It seems we've formed a grudge." Ning Fengzhi sighed slightly, then looked at his daughter with a hint of expectation and asked, "Rongrong?"

"Could your soul bone skill help other soul masters simulate [microstructure]?"

Ning Rongrong casually replied, "Father's word is fine!"

"Han Tao, you can do it too."

His tone was slightly excited, but he paused here.

After a long pause, he said through gritted teeth, "Ye Lingling is fine, but other soul masters are not."

"Only Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Masters, or the puzzle pieces of Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Masters, can achieve the simulation of [microstructure]."

"Oh?" Han Tao looked surprised.

If Ning Rongrong is not mistaken, this also means that he can gain an additional 0.1 growth base.

The Guzhu Soul Ring, combined with the Guzhu Soul Bone of Zhu Qi, can increase the base growth potential from 0.2 to 0.3.

"Yes!"

Ning Rongrong leaned closer to Han Tao, her ears flushed: "However, to realize the Soul Bone Skill, we must complete the Martial Soul Fusion again."
