Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 52 The Blue Silver Eye
"The year 1400."

Han Tao's martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, which possesses naturally powerful perception.

This is a Blue Silver Grass that is nearly 1,500 years old.

If you're asking how Han Tao discovered it?
Over the past few months, Han Tao has thoroughly mastered the sixth level of the Distraction Control Method.

The sixth layer is a perception that permeates the microscopic level. Using this perception, he can judge the frequency of other people's soul power.

Soul power frequency is a new concept.

At this moment, Han Tao finally understood how Qian Renxue's disguise had been discovered.

Even though the angel's head soul bone is powerful, it can disguise its appearance, disguise its martial soul, and reduce soul power fluctuations.
But how can you change such a microscopic phenomenon as soul power frequency?

Based on the frequency, quantity, and quality of the soul power of this Blue Silver Grass, Han Tao roughly determined its age.

"1500 years is not something I can absorb right now."

The age limit of the spirit ring is too high, and the physical attributes are not enough. If it is not enough, it will explode if you absorb it.

Xiao Yuan stepped forward, looked at Han Tao who was about to leave, and asked with some doubt.

"What, you're not satisfied with this Blue Silver Grass?"

Han Tao shook his head and replied:
"Its age is too high; I can't absorb it now."

Xiao Yuan gently patted Han Tao's shoulder.

"It's alright, let's find the next one."

Having trained together for a long time, he knew Han Tao's personality all too well.

Whenever he felt that Han Tao was being unreasonable, he would always come up with a very strange theory.

Then, following this line of thought and thinking along the clues, one will find that Han Tao's behavior was correct, and that it was one's own narrow-mindedness in looking at the problem.

After being asked the same question repeatedly, he would stop asking why.

Han Tao summoned his martial spirit again and found the next Blue Silver Grass.

Once, twice.

On the fifth attempt, Han Tao finally encountered a Blue Silver Grass that was just over a thousand years old.

"This is my goal!"

Blue Silver Grass is a useless martial soul, and it's also extremely weak as a soul beast.

Wild Blue Silver Grass has almost no ability to resist when facing a Soul Master.

However, among so many Soul Masters in Douluo Continent, no one would be so foolish as to hunt for the Soul Ring of Blue Silver Grass.

After identifying his target, Han Tao began his hunt.

He took out an exquisite recurve bow, the bowstring of which was made from the sinew of a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast and soaked in a special potion.

This bow requires 30 points of physique to draw and 50 points of physique to maintain stability.

With Han Tao's current skill level, even using all his strength, he can barely draw the bowstring.

This bow is not cheap; it sells for as much as 10 gold soul coins at auction, equivalent to the future of one hundred Blue Silver Grass Soul Masters.

Its high price corresponds to its power.

The specially made metal arrows can easily penetrate a Soul Master's defenses.

A full-force attack can kill a level 40 Soul Master and pose a threat to a small number of Soul Kings.

"A transitional weapon."

This is Han Tao's evaluation of him.

Han Tao did not deny its value, but there was no need to exaggerate its strength.

A stable draw requires 50 points of physique, meaning that using this weapon requires at least a level 30 Soul Master, and specifically a Soul Master with a high-level Martial Soul.

Fighting someone ten levels higher is nothing special.

A cold arrow was fired from Han Tao's hand, shooting towards the distant Blue Silver Grass.

"Missing."

As expected, a physique attribute of 30 points is not enough to perfectly control this recurve bow.

Xiao Yuan stepped forward and smiled slightly: "Do you need any help?"

Han Tao shook his head, indicating that he didn't need it.

A fixed target doesn't need to be so complicated.

Take two steps closer and draw the bow again.

Once, twice.

In the end, the Blue Silver Grass could not escape Han Tao's clutches and was pierced by the cold arrow.

The aura of soul power emerged from the grass, condensing into a soul ring that emitted a purple glow.

He stepped forward, summoned his martial spirit, and began absorbing the spirit rings.

"Perception-type soul skills! Perception-type soul skills! Perception-type soul skills!" Han Tao kept repeating to himself, hoping that the soul skills he acquired would lean towards this direction.

Perhaps due to subjective influence, the soul skill of the purple soul ring was revealed.

"Blue Silver Eye".

Throw a patch of blue silver grass seeds in the direction of the target.

The grass seeds do not have the ability to grow and evolve, but they retain the most basic sensory abilities of the Blue Silver Grass.

Upon learning the effects of the soul skill, Han Tao nodded with satisfaction.

There is no pursuit of offensive, control, or any other strange growth path.

"Pursuing offensive capabilities?"

Han Tao said there was no need for that.

If your attack power is insufficient, you can compensate with external tools, such as bows and arrows.

This recurve bow is currently the best match for Han Tao.

Blue Silver Grass enhances perception, while the seventh level of Distraction Control Technique is about mastering microscopic power.

Perceive, calculate, control, exhaust all the myriad changes.

The trajectory of an arrow can be calculated.

The enemy's weaknesses can be discovered through perception.

However, Han Tao currently has very little combat experience and his fighting style is not yet fully developed.

So it looks weak on the surface, and it is actually weak in actual combat.

After understanding his own soul skill, Han Tao focused his attention on a certain key point.

"The Origin of Blue Silver".

Circulate your spirit and feel the changes in energy levels within the origin of your martial soul.

"There has been an improvement, very significant, truly enormous."

Han Tao verified the first conjecture about the "upper limit of origin".

The Blue Silver Grass-type Soul Ring can increase the upper limit of the Martial Soul's origin, and there is almost no loss during the entire absorption process.

This thousand-year-old Blue Silver Grass Soul Beast nearly doubled Han Tao's source power limit.

"It makes sense."

Han Tao has grown from level 1 to level 30, but he has not acquired much Blue Silver Origin. This Millennium Blue Silver Grass is his first Origin Soul Ring.

Such a level of profit is clearly reasonable.

After all, it's not easy for Blue Silver Grass to cultivate for a thousand years, so it's normal to have such benefits.

Having achieved his goal for this trip, Han Tao put away his martial spirit and prepared to return to his sect.

"Okay, let's go back."

Xiao Yuan nodded and followed Han Tao back to the sect.

Upon entering the sect, Han Tao encountered his cellmate.

Mr. Wolong, Ning Tian.

"Han Tao!"

"I haven't seen you for days, where have you been?" he asked.

Han Tao was puzzled. He had only been away from the sect for two days, so why was he in such a hurry?
"I just broke through to the Soul Master level, and this time I'm going to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt soul beasts!"

Han Tao revealed his martial spirit, and three-colored spirit rings of yellow, white and purple appeared in the air, shining brightly together and creating a beautiful sight.

Ke Ningtian didn't pay attention to Han Tao's spirit rings, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

You scared the hell out of me!

"Damn it, I don't want to go back to that dark room!"

As he spoke, he walked away, cursing and swearing.

"Wait!" someone called out, stopping him in his tracks.

"What does my going out to hunt for spirit rings have to do with you being locked in a dark room?"

Ning Tian turned his head and looked at Han Tao with a strange expression.

"Do you really not understand, or are you pretending not to understand?"

Han Tao expressed his doubts.

"I was locked in a dark room for four months, a full four months!"

"After I got out, I did some investigation and found out that I was put in solitary confinement entirely because of you!"

"I am that fish caught in the crossfire."
