Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 574 Unexpected Enemy

Crimson elevates bloodline, Yellow Springs Dew amplifies will.
Slaughter is the domain of the Crimson Blue Silver Emperor Order, and as the ultimate martial soul, it is a perfection one in ten thousand.

"And its birth and gestation are merely for the sake of the lowest level!"

Bibi Dong asked, "What?"

"Aberrant virus!"

Han Tao stretched out his fingers.

The blood-red river of Hell Road, guided by the Crimson Blue Silver Emperor, swirls in the sky, while the "mutation virus" rooted at the bottom of the river, which has existed since time immemorial, rests atop the Crimson Blue Silver Emperor.

"Its arrival will be the final stroke in the birth of the flower of distortion!"

Han Tao stopped speaking.

From then on, Han Tao could use the Eye of Time to travel through the 50,000-year era of scarlet aberration to seek the evolutionary foundation for the Flower of Aberration.

It can also utilize "Slaughter City," a microcosm of the entire era, to continue the symphony of Blue Silver evolution.

"Martial Soul, Evolve!"

The ultimate crimson blue silver emperor, which bestowed upon the "emperor" rank and bloodline, faded away afterward.

The newly emerging "abnormality," the virus-carrying sequence, is leading it toward a completely new future.

"This time, you won't fail again!"

Han Tao whispered, "I have inherited the evolutionary path of fifty thousand years and have also received the martial spirit foundation of the lotus root. The Lord of Ten Thousand Stars, the Blue Silver Emperor, and the Blue Silver Demon Emperor will all become your helpers. They can help you defeat the mutated virus."

Fire resistance, frost resistance, shock resistance, devouring resistance, lightning resistance.
Wood affinity, water affinity, earth power, and the order of slaughter.
The bizarre and varied adaptations, in a very short time, are enhancing the basic strength of the "flower of distortion".

It blooms in the sky above the killing city, looking down over this space that had fallen but has been revitalized.

"This is... a divine-level martial soul?"

Bibi Dong stared at it in astonishment, feeling inexplicably shocked. "How could a divine-level martial soul be born so easily?"

"Without a thousand years of accumulated faith, without a once-in-a-million stroke of luck, it just appeared out of thin air?"

"Appearing out of thin air?"

Seeing her confusion, Han Tao paused for a moment, then shook his head. "This is not an evolutionary sequence that appeared out of thin air. It has appeared in history and time. I am just replicating the path that once existed."

"The origins of Douluo Star are ancient and complex. No one knows how many brilliant paths of evolution have emerged beneath the dust of history, but it is undeniable that..."

"They will all become my strength!"

Han Tao's fingers slowly clenched into a fist.

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong paused, then remained silent.

"Seeking strength in the dusty years"

These were such unfamiliar words. She could no longer imagine how far Han Tao had gone with his theories, a figure she could never hope to reach.

"I used to follow theories just like that!"

Bibi Dong suddenly fell into memories, "I admire strength and I respect theory, which is why I sought out Yu Xiaogang. Unfortunately, I misjudged him."

She recounted her long-lost past, her eyes filled with a mixture of nostalgia and reluctance, as well as a hint of resentment.

However, Han Tao remained unmoved and did not care about her past.

As the last piece of right arm bone, drawn from the blue silver origin and derived from the "Flower of Aberration" evolution sequence, slowly fell before Han Tao's eyes.

[A deformed flower, the right arm bone]

Blue Silver Origin pushes it to a million-year lifespan.

The evolutionary sequence endowed it with god-like soul-bone quality.

Using the power of divine punishment, the soul bone is transformed to achieve a near-perfect skeletal structure.

—With a "click," the soul bone fused into Han Tao's arm, completing the final piece of the soul bone puzzle.

"Besides the skull, there are 10 million-year-old soul bones and 1000 points of physical attributes!"

"In terms of growth stats, there is a base growth of 1.5, 5 hidden tiers, and a level 99 Peerless Douluo provides 1404 points of physique stats."

"Muscles, skin, blood vessels, and internal organs each provide 100 points of physical attributes."

"It's absolutely perfect!"

"I can't even imagine what kind of romance it will be when Han Tao forges the Soul Bone Set!"

In the Martial Soul Empire, Qian Renxue listened to her mother's story and fell into deep thought.

The Angel Set Soul Bones, individually, are no more than 5 years old; they only reached that age through the Soul Bone Set. Compared to Han Tao's million-year Blue Silver Soul Bone Set, which even includes five external Soul Bones, it's beyond outrageous.
"Is the soul bone perfect yet?"

Above the City of Slaughter, Han Tao hung his head in deep thought.

"No, it's still not enough!"

The five external soul bones and four torso bones are all divine-grade soul bones that are millions of years old.

They have approached perfection and reached the limits of the world's rules.

"But!" "The Illusion, Mirror, Nightmare Skull still needs the power of nothingness and emotion to complete the final piece of the puzzle."

"And the torso bones, the Star Spirit Grass evolved from pure energy, are soul bones of the highest quality, but not the ultimate expression of strength. The Immortal Spirit Grass, which is a level above, is the answer I want."

A gentle breeze blew by, making my thin clothes feel cold.

Han Tao followed the river once again toward the center of the Star Dou Great Forest, the location of the Demon Eye Tree.

"here."

Upon seeing Han Tao's arrival, Di Tian pursed his lips and asked, "What brings you here this time?"

"No, I won't bother you this time!"

Han Tao shook his head slightly.

Standing beside the Demon Eye Tree, he activated his martial soul, surpassing even divine-grade power, [Eye of Time].

"I seem to have overlooked something?"

He paused suddenly.

Looking back, we need to rely on the help of luck to accurately pinpoint Han Tao's desired goal.

"I don't need luck. I have already found the birthplace and time of the Immortal Spirit Grass through the memories of the Demon King."

The measuring rod of time gradually extends towards the more distant past.

Fifty thousand years ago was the era of the Scarlet Aberration.

One hundred thousand years is the Star Era.

150,000 years ago was the era of barbarism.

The forest decayed, the vegetation withered, and countless creatures ceased to exist. Only a few powerful soul beasts, dating back to ancient times, stood at the source of the Lake of Life.

Two hundred thousand years later, it remains a land steeped in wildness and untamed nature.

Unchanged for 250,000 years.

Three hundred thousand years, unchanged.

Three hundred and fifty thousand years ago, there was a brief invasion from the abyss plane.

Countless lives perished, and everywhere one looked was scorched earth. It was the invasion of the abyss that led to the barbaric era that lasted for the next two hundred thousand years.

Time flows on, and the pointer of the years reaches the mark of 500,000 years.

"Immortal Herb!"

Han Tao spotted his target.

The birth, structure, evolutionary path, and underlying logic of the Immortal Grass are all clearly visible in the Eyes of Time.

"Star Spirit Grass, evolve!"

The moment he sensed her presence, Han Tao used his distraction control technique to guide the Star Spirit Grass beside him onto a completely new path.

"This is."

"This is."

"The birth of the Immortal Herb marks the birth of a great path!"

The Demon King witnessed all of this with utter shock, his concealed expression revealing a mixture of greed and humility.

Han Tao waved his hand.

The isolated, illusory space drowned out its senses and completely extinguished its greed.

"Immortal Spirit Grass, torso and soul bones synchronized!"

The soul bones in the body also leap towards a higher divine grade, just as the Star Spirit Grass progresses towards becoming a "Fairy Spirit Grass".

but,

Just as Han Tao was filled with joy, something unexpected happened.

In the dusty past, there exist some unimaginable beings that can even sense the probing from the future.

"who is it!"

"Who is watching me!"

Through the eyes of time, a vast expanse of azure blue was witnessed.

And it, too, saw the rift in spacetime and witnessed the Eye of Time from the future.

"what!"

Han Tao was startled: "What is it?"

The composed Han Tao hadn't stirred up such waves in a long time.
Because Han Tao saw that the azure figure had disappeared, chasing after time at an unimaginable speed, heading towards where he was.

One minute later.
After 50 years, it could no longer be found, but in the 49-year history, the deep blue ripples reappeared.
