Douluo: Soul Breaking Spear

Chapter 187 Condensing Soul Core
After Yang Podi and the other two left, they directly left the Star Dou Great Forest and returned to the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire.

This trip to the Star Dou Great Forest and back, plus the absorbing of spirit rings and the search for spirit beasts, took a total of one and a half months.

However, after returning to the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, this soul bone was not absorbed by Yang Tianyue immediately. It had to wait until she broke through to level 60.

Yang Tianyue is now at the peak of level 58, and will soon reach level 60 at this rate. If we do this just for the sake of her improvement, it may make her dependent. After all, Yang Tianyue does not have a twin martial soul, and it will be even more difficult for her to improve after she becomes a Titled Douluo.

Yang Podi was also sorting out the harvest alone.

This trip to the Xingdou Great Forest yielded a good harvest, and I got two very good 10-year spirit rings and two 10-year spirit bones. Especially the spirit ring and spirit bone of the Golden Behemoth, which is considered the best even among the 10-year spirit rings and spirit bones.

The eighth soul skill: Golden Behemoth Slash. When using the eighth soul skill, swinging the Soul Breaking Spear can send out a slashing wave that can cut through everything in the world, ignoring defense and breaking everything. This soul skill is a bit similar to the Golden Behemoth's Sky-tearing Claw when fighting against him.

The second skill of the eighth soul: Earth Behemoth Destruction. When using the eighth soul skill, you can directly summon a huge soul-breaking spear, which greatly increases both weight and attack power, and has gravity lock, and attacks in a straight line, which is indestructible. All objects on the attack line are suppressed by gravity.

According to Yang Podi's own estimation, one of these two soul skills is similar to a soul power attack, while the other is similar to a physical attack. The focus of soul skill one is to display the golden energy of the Golden Behemoth, while the focus of soul skill two is the power attribute of the Golden Behemoth.

After possessing these two soul skills, Yang Podi even has the confidence to fight against Qianjun or one of the Demon-Subduing Douluo, and at least he will be invincible.

Especially Yang Podi's Soul-Breaking Spear, its weight has increased again, now reaching 12000 kilograms. In terms of weight alone, although it is still far less than the Poseidon Trident, it is comparable to ordinary artifacts, especially when using several amplifying skills, it will become even more terrifying.

The blade of the Soul-Breaking Spear has also changed. The original silver-white color has turned into a gold color similar to the Golden Behemoth. Even when faced with hard precious metals, it can be easily cut through. According to estimates, it should be very close to the ultimate gold.

The Soul-Breaking Spear has been enhanced with eight consecutive power-type weapons, plus some extreme gold energy, especially two top-grade 100,000-year soul rings. Now the Soul-Breaking Spear is becoming more and more powerful, and can even be called a divine weapon. If Yang Podi's own physique was not extremely strong, he would probably not be able to fully exert the power of this Soul-Breaking Spear.

In the following period of time, Dad Yang Zhentian had no plans to leave, and he also practiced in the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire. After the battle with the Golden Behemoth, although the three of them suffered considerable injuries, they also gained some insights.

Especially for dad Yang Zhentian, this battle even made him feel that he had touched the bottleneck of level 96, which was considered a gain.

Yang Podi's soul power has also been upgraded to an astonishing level 84 this time, mainly due to the addition of a 100,000-year-old space bone dragon right leg soul bone and a golden behemoth soul ring.

But just as Second Grandfather Yang Wushuang said, he had improved by 14 levels in just a few months. The physical changes were so great that he needed to seriously comprehend them, and at the same time he also needed to adapt to the improvement in his own strength.

Yang Podi had originally planned to study the issue of soul core when he had just broken through to the Soul Saint level, but he has been busy lately, with one thing after another, and he had no time to calm down. Now that everything has been almost resolved, he can finally calm down and study the issue of soul core.

Normally, to condense the first soul core one needs mental power to reach the Titled Douluo level. Although Yang Podi was only level 84 at this time, due to the all-round improvement of his martial soul and the Wangchuanqiushui Dew he had taken at the beginning, his mental power had long surpassed that of soul masters of the same level, and had at least reached the level of level 95.

Yang Podi's original plan was to take the Xingluo Spirit Pearl and use this method to condense the first soul core, but with Yang Podi's current strength, I'm afraid the Xingluo Spirit Pearl will not be of much help.

In the original novel, the research on soul cores was based on Dugu Bo's poison pill. Now that we have Dugu Bo's poison pill in hand, research will naturally be twice as effective with half the effort.

Recently, Yang Podi has focused all his attention on researching poison pills.

Every time Yang Podi looked at the poison pill, he couldn't help but marvel: Dugu Bo's luck is really too good, I don't know how many times he has been on the verge of life and death before he was able to condense the poison pill, it's simply a work of art beyond imagination.

It was only after Yang Podi had studied for a full month that he began to prepare to condense the first soul core.

That morning, all five of them gathered together. Even the father and younger sister stopped practicing, preparing to watch how Yang Podi condensed his first soul core, so that they could be ready to rescue him at any time.

Yang Podi glanced at the four people around him and said with a firm face: "I am going to start. You should focus on the specific process of soul core condensation, so that it will be convenient for the future development of our family."

The four of them nodded solemnly, especially the father Yang Zhentian and the younger sister Yang Tianyue. The two of them directly used their head soul bones and exerted their mental power to the extreme.

Yang Podi calmed down and summoned his Soul-Breaking Spear to his right hand. However, this was not the entity of the Soul-Breaking Spear, but more like the origin of the Soul-Breaking Spear.

In Yang Podi's right hand, he was dragging a small soul-breaking gun in the air, as if it was the origin of his martial soul.

Then, the soul power in his right hand began to rotate, and the way it rotated was somewhat similar to the way Dugu Bo's poison pill worked.

As time went by, the soul-breaking spear in his hand disappeared and slowly turned into a golden sphere, which was spinning rapidly. This sphere seemed to contain all of Yang Podi's soul power, and all of this needed Yang Podi's own mental power to control it. As the soul core spun faster and faster, the consumption of mental power became greater and greater, and even Yang Podi was a little out of range at this time, and his whole body's soul power was consumed greatly.

As Yang Podi's last bit of soul power was injected into the golden soul core, the soul core seemed to start functioning autonomously. At this time, Yang Podi's mental power was basically consumed by about 80%, and even his breath began to weaken.

As the soul core rotates rapidly, it also quickly absorbs soul power in the air, like a whale sucking water.

The four people on the side were very worried and kept an eye on any changes in Yang Podi's body so that they could conduct timely research.

The next step is the most difficult one, which is to integrate the soul core in the palm of the hand into the body, that is, to merge the soul core and the body into one whole.

The most important thing is to understand the Soul-Breaking Spear itself. As some Title Douluo have felt, a person's martial soul is alive, full of vitality, and even has thoughts. Only by fully understanding one's own martial soul can one truly use the martial soul to condense a soul core, allowing the soul core to operate automatically in the body, so that the soul power of the whole body, the soul core, and even the body can be integrated into a whole.

As Yang Podi used the last of his mental power to guide it, the Soul-Breaking Spear's soul core gradually began to enter his body. However, this was also the most dangerous time. If one did not have enough understanding of the martial soul, a huge repulsive force would form between the body and the martial soul core, and this force would be enough to tear the entire body apart.

As the soul core finally entered his body, Yang Podi even felt that his body seemed to be slightly cracked, but Yang Podi controlled his mind and completed the final operation. After completing this last step, Yang Podi himself fell into a deep sleep.

When Yang Podi woke up again, a whole day had passed. At this time, Yang Podi just felt a splitting headache, as if his mental energy was over-consumed, but his body had fully recovered thanks to his powerful recovery ability.

Yang Podi looked inside his body. There was no change in his mind. There was still a silver giant holding the Soul-Breaking Spear, but a golden soul core appeared in his dantian, and the soul core seemed to have a slight connection with the body. In particular, the soul core actually rotated autonomously and quickly absorbed soul power in the air. Both the cultivation speed and the soul power recovery speed became much faster.

The four people on the side also breathed a sigh of relief.

Second Grandfather Yang Wushuang carefully observed Yang Podi's soul core, and said with a heavy face: "Podi, how do you feel now? Your soul core method looks very good, but the process is too dangerous. I'm afraid it will be more dangerous for others to condense it."

Yang Podi nodded: "Although I have condensed the soul core, there are still some omissions in the operation process. I will sort out the specific operations in the process and tell you later."

"In addition, there are three points to pay special attention to when condensing a soul core. The first is that it requires a very high level of mental strength. It must at least reach the level of a Titled Douluo, or even a high-level Titled Douluo."

"The second is that you must have a very good understanding of your own martial soul and be able to integrate your martial soul with yourself into a whole. This will reduce the repulsive force between your body and soul core."

"Third, it requires a relatively high level of physical fitness. If others want to condense soul cores, it would be best if I, Tianyue, or Lingling were by their side so that we could help them immediately. It would also be best if there was a Titled Douluo above level 95 to help them at any time."

However, Yang Podi smiled and said, "Of course, soul cores are also very helpful to soul masters, especially for Titled Douluo. The soul power below Titled Douluo is gaseous. After entering the Titled Douluo, the soul power of the body will all turn into liquid. However, after reaching level 95, the liquid will gradually solidify into a solid state. This is also one of the reasons why it is difficult to cross between these three levels."

Yang Zhentian on the side could not help but nodded: "Indeed, there is a saying that those below the Titled Douluo are all ants. Titled Douluo far surpass Soul Douluo in both spirit power level and depth. Especially since I entered level 95, my cultivation speed has slowed down a lot."

Yang Podi nodded: "This is probably also the reason why it is very difficult to improve the soul power by one level after being sealed as Douluo. Many soul masters are trapped below level 95 for their entire lives, and it is difficult to improve by one level even if they spend their entire lives."

In the next few days, several people were sorting out the method of condensing the soul core. Finally, after some discussion, they decided on the best plan.

Dad Yang Zhentian couldn't wait to start condensing the first soul core. The whole process was relatively safe. After all, dad's soul power had reached the peak of level 95. Especially with an 80,000-year-old head soul bone, his mental power could be said to be the ultimate among soul masters of the same level.

After condensing the soul core, Dad Yang Zhentian finally broke through the bottleneck and his soul power reached level ninety-six. Especially when looking at the rapidly rotating soul core in his dantian, Yang Zhentian himself even smiled foolishly, as if he finally saw the hope of being promoted to level ninety-seven in the future.

As for the second grandfather Yang Wushuang and mother Niu Jinfeng, with the help of Yang Podi and others, they finally condensed their soul cores. However, their process was extremely dangerous. If Yang Podi and Yang Tianyue had not used the Blue Silver Emperor's soul skills and soul bone skills respectively, their bodies would probably have been on the verge of collapse several times.

After several people had condensed their soul cores, Yang Podi thought for a long time and finally decided to go out for a walk. Since entering Soul Douluo, the speed of soul power cultivation has obviously slowed down a lot. It is estimated that no matter how hard he practices, he can only improve by about two levels every year. It is better to go out and take a look and truly experience the life of Douluo Continent.

Dad Yang Zhentian was more in favor: "Defeat the enemy, you should go out for a walk and experience the scenery of major cities. It is still nearly nine months before Tianyue goes to Sea God Island. By then, the three of us can take Tianyue's spirit ring with us."

The younger sister Yang Tianyue was also very confident: "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely practice hard during this period. Besides, I have the Hanhai Qiankun Cover now, so I will be safe even if I go to the Xingdou Great Forest."

Ever since the Vast Sea Universe Cover recognized its master, Tianyue has also mastered its four skills, so there is no need to worry about her safety anymore.

After thinking for a while, Yang Podi finally went out alone to gain some experience.
