Douluo: Son of the Stars

Chapter 221 Return to the Xiao Family, New Resurrection

"It's you? What explanation do you want?" Yun Yun exclaimed, recognizing that Tong Rui was the person who accompanied them in snatching the strange fire that day.

"Well, the word 'explain' may not be the right word. Tell me, how do you want to deal with this matter?"

Tong Rui himself had no opinion about Yun Yun. According to the description in the original novel, this person and the master and disciple Nalan Yanran were both naive and innocent. Tong Rui would not feel any disgust towards such a person for no reason.

"The current situation is indeed caused by the impulsive behavior of Great Elder Yun Ling, but you should not kill the disciples of my Yunlan Sect. They are innocent."

Tong Rui raised his eyebrows, looked at Yun Yun whose face was full of stubbornness and said with a smile: "They are helping the tyrant. If they hadn't united to cast the Cloud Mist Covering the Sun Array, this wouldn't have happened."

"If what you said is true, if Nalan Yanran had not made the three-year agreement, wouldn't the Yunlan Sect still be at peace now?"

Tong Rui smiled and shook his head, saying: "Then let's end this matter here. Those few people should regard it as a punishment for offending me. In addition, if you implicate other people because of this, for example, the Xiao family."

Tong Rui raised his hand and drew a line in the air: "Then, I will solve this trouble of yours without hesitation."

After saying that, Tong Rui ignored the reactions of the people present, glanced at the shadow hiding in the dark, opened the insect door leading to the Xiao family, and walked in first.

Turning around, he saw Xiao Yan still standing there in a daze. He nodded in the direction of the Insect Gate and said, "Let's go, or do you still want to stay here and help them clean up the mess?"

After hearing this, Xiao Yan turned around and nodded to Hai Bodong, then followed Tong Rui through the insect gate.

After the insect gate was closed, everyone present was surprised at what Tong Rui had done.

Jia Xingtian looked at the place where the two people left, and it took him a long time to calm down. He said to Fama: "What is this? The power of space, could it be that that person is a Dou Zun!"

Fama was also very shocked: "Not only that, the soul that appeared in their conversation just now is called Medicine Venerable! Named after medicine, maybe he was a Dou Zun-level alchemist in his lifetime!"

Jia Xingtian shook his head and looked at Yunlan Sect pitifully, saying, "This time, Yunlan Sect has really hit a wall. If it weren't for that old man Yun Leng, how could it have come to this. Go back and warn your subordinates not to provoke the Xiao family."

Fama glanced at Mittel Fujiyama who was communicating with everyone, shook his head and said, "Not only that, old man Hai Bodong has boarded the Xiao family's train, I guess the Mittel family will also rise."

Not to mention the shock Tong Rui's unintentional action brought to Yunlan Sect. On the Xiao family side, since Xiao Yan found out that he had returned to the Xiao family so suddenly, he couldn't wait to report the news of the three-year agreement to his father.

It is unknown how mysterious Tong Rui's identity is and how powerful he is according to Xiao Yan. After learning that Xiao Yan had returned victorious, the Xiao family held a big banquet at the Xiao family, and the three elders kept asking Tong Rui to drink.

However, it was unknown whether they were really drunk or just trying to take advantage of the situation to act crazy, the three elders were eager to marry their granddaughter to Tong Rui. It was not until Xiao Yan and his father pulled them apart that Tong Rui calmed down.

"I'm sorry, you are also aware of the character of our family elders." Xiao Yan twitched his mouth and complained to Tong Rui.

"Haha, it's okay. It's quite lively. It can be regarded as the most lively dinner party I have had in thousands of years." Tong Rui drank a glass of fruit wine with a smile in his eyes.

"Thousands of years? Then how old are you this year?" Xiao Yan asked in shock.

"About twelve thousand years old? Age means nothing to me. At my stage, my life span is almost infinite. I have upgraded to the fourth generation divine body. The atoms in my body can locate each other. Even if I am blown into foam, I can be resurrected on the spot."

“What does the fourth generation of divine body mean? And there are fifth and sixth generations? Then you are already immortal now. If you become stronger, no one in this world can stop you.” Xiao Yan was shocked.

"The so-called fourth-generation divine body is just a technology. If you have enough resources, I can help you upgrade it. Moreover, the fourth-generation divine body is not without flaws. I know a great god with a sacred body of the fourth-generation divine body. After being blown to pieces, the molecules in his body were spread throughout the universe. It will take at least 300 million years for them to converge."

The banquet had ended at this time, and the two strolled back to Xiao Yan's courtyard.

"Besides, if you want someone to die, you don't just want to kill their body. For example, Yao Lao is still active even without his body."

When Yao Lao heard this, he also floated out of his ring: "Indeed, there is a group of people in this world whose fighting skills are all aimed at the soul."

"That's right. Yao Lao's death is closely related to them. But, Yao Lao, if you need a body, I can also create one for you. You can also choose any bloodline as long as you can get it. I will regard it as a reward for teaching me the art of alchemy."

"Even bloodlines can be chosen at will, could it be you?" Yao Lao said in shock.

"No, I have nothing to do with them. Anyway, even if you want to choose the bloodline of the Xiao family, you can change from master and apprentice to uncle and nephew. Well, it can also be grandfather and grandson."

Upon hearing this, Yao Lao looked at Xiao Yan, and Xiao Yan turned around and looked at Yao Lao. Both of them shuddered and shook their heads.

"Heh, bloodline, forget it, you can just create a body for me, but the strength of the body doesn't meet the requirements, so there's no way to revive it, right?"

Listening to Yao Chen's doubts, Tong Rui smiled and said, "Don't worry, I don't need the Burning Technique. When it comes to resurrection, I'm an expert."

If He Xi could die more than a dozen times, he could probably create a fifth-generation divine body. Although Tong Rui was not as powerful as He Xi, he still understood the resurrection very well.

After opening the insect door, the group arrived at the familiar back mountain.

"Although the functions of the Infinity Engine have not been fully restored and some of its rules are not universal, I can still read your complete data."

Tong Rui saw that the two of them didn't understand at all, so he explained: "In layman's terms, I can completely see through your souls, body data, etc., so I will use your souls to directly create a body that is closely related."

"The body I created is almost the same as your original body, but in order to restore your strength in one go, I will upgrade your body. The fourth generation does not have the resources, but the third generation is still easy to manufacture. At that stage, you can directly use the Burning Technique and the Strange Fire to forge, completely merge the soul and body, and restore your strength in one fell swoop."

"If you are ready, I will start?"

The master and the disciple looked at each other and nodded. Yao Lao said, "Then thank you for your help!" Tong Rui smiled and said, "It's no trouble. Maybe this resurrection will give me a brand new design idea for the fifth generation divine body."

Tong Rui then picked up a slightly larger stone and said, "Although I don't feel the presence of a strong person around here, I still need to be fully prepared."

[Importing the space-time sealing algorithm, importing the hidden soul guide circuit, calculating the atomic structure, changing the atomic structure]

Although the Void Controller's ability to create things out of thin air cannot be used in this universe, it is still relatively easy to use the computing power of the Supreme Heaven and cooperate with the Infinite Engine to directly change the arrangement and combination of the atoms in this stone.

Combining the soul guide technology learned in Douluo, the space-time sealing algorithm was programmed into an energy circuit, so that while changing its atomic structure and shell, the engraved circuit was left in place. For Tong Rui now, the abilities obtained from the three worlds he has experienced have been completely mastered.

"The estimated time is 6 hours and 27 minutes, so this array is mainly used to hide the aura and isolate time and space. It can be used for about 18 hours. Xiao Yan will put it away later to prevent it from being damaged by accidents."

The man and the soul watched Tong Rui pick up a stone, and in a blink of an eye, it became colorful and revealed a powerful aura. They were all dumbfounded.

"Damn, if you can just pick up a piece of stone and turn it into a magical weapon, then wouldn't it be easy for you to become the richest person in the world?"

Tong Rui threw the formation plate to Xiao Yan and said, "I can, but I don't need to do this. I can control the richest man in the world without anyone noticing."

"Okay, everything is ready, so let's start the resurrection."

Tong Rui stretched out his hand and released a red ball of light, which contained a drop of blood.

"This is the blood sample of Xiao Yan that I took casually. Next, I will start to transform the genetic information in the blood according to your physical data, and transform it into embryonic stem cells, so that it can develop from scratch."

"No wonder you said this is the body that best suits me, but if this body develops from a young age, won't it develop self-awareness?"

"It is inevitable that a new body will generate a soul. However, because this body is transformed by your soul, the soul generated does not have a subjective consciousness. The subjective consciousness of the soul in the body is still you."

Xiao Yan interrupted and said, "Doesn't that mean that there is only pure soul power inside to sustain the growth of the body?"

Tong Rui nodded: "That's right. After Yao Lao merges, although the soul and body need to be merged at the same time, it will also be of the greatest help to his growth. Maybe his soul realm will be further improved because of this."

Yao Lao was also very shocked when he heard this: "It is actually possible to improve soul power in this way. Oh my God, if those alchemists who have no hope of making further progress knew this, you might become a guest of honor across the continent."

"Or a wanted criminal across the continent?" Tong Rui joked.

"This soul realm? What is it? Is it important?" Xiao Yan asked doubtfully.

When Yao Lao saw Xiao Yan asking questions, he patiently explained, "The soul realms are divided into: the mortal realm, the spirit realm, the heavenly realm, and the legendary emperor realm. Each realm is divided into the early, middle, late, peak, and great perfection. One of the conditions for becoming a pharmacist is to have a strong soul, and the prerequisite for refining the eighth-grade elixir is to have a spirit-realm soul, and the ninth-grade elixir requires a heavenly realm soul."

"There is no way to improve soul power now. The only way is to practice soul skills. However, soul skills have been lost now. Even if they exist, they are more precious than heaven-level skills. There is no possibility of them being passed down."

"So, now you know what Tong Rui's method means. As long as the soul can be preserved, with the new body, you can have greater potential and a younger body. Just for the younger body, this method will be sought after by the whole continent."

As time passed, until the embryo was formed, Tong Rui began to accelerate cell metabolism, causing the body to grow rapidly.

Watching this body grow from a baby to a handsome young man, Tong Rui had some design ideas for the fifth generation after seeing this body.

However, the most urgent task is to complete the resurrection of Yao Lao first.

Tong Rui bends his finger and a drop of golden blood spurts out, finally merging into the body, and suddenly bursts of golden light burst out, shining brightly.

Seeing this, Tong Rui raised his hand, and his body emitting golden light automatically floated up. He raised his hand and waved it, and purple-gold flames suddenly burst out, completely enveloping his body. This drop of golden blood was Tong Rui's blood.

That's right, now Tong Rui himself can be regarded as a panacea. This drop of blood can even replace most of the resources for upgrading the third-generation divine body. Just like Suma used Ge Xiaolun's galactic power backup to complete the advancement of the pseudo-third-generation divine body.

Anyway, even if Yao Lao was given a complete third-generation configuration, he would not be able to get used to it. He might as well directly upgrade his physical strength to the third-generation divine body, allowing him to better use his body and fighting spirit.

However, this blood is also difficult to fuse, so he must use the method of Burning Technique and use the strange fire to burn these energies into the deep of every bone of the body. Only in this way can the body truly absorb all of these amazing energies.

Along with the blazing flames, a subtle golden light shield appeared on the body. However, even so, the high temperature that penetrated into the body still caused subtle golden light threads to overflow on the surface of the body. Occasionally, when the threads collapsed, rich energy would spread out.

This kind of tempering and roasting is a very time-consuming process, so it lasted for nearly four hours. Tong Rui's slightly closed eyes finally slowly opened. At this moment, the purple-gold color on his body had undoubtedly become much darker, no longer as bright as before.

But Tong Rui, who was aware of this, understood that because of those energies, they had gradually penetrated deep into the body under high temperatures.

"Yao Lao!" Tong Rui turned his head and gestured to Yao Lao.

"Ah."

Yao Lao nodded. With his sharp eyesight, he knew that now was the best time. His figure quickly disappeared and turned into a ray of light, sweeping into the body.

"Oh!"

At the moment when Yao Lao's soul entered his body, his body suddenly trembled violently, and began to continuously emit powerful energy tides. Under the calcination of Tong Rui's purple-gold flame, everything also came to an end.
