Douluo: Son of the Stars

Chapter 4 Experiment
Tong Rui came to the backyard, put the corpse into the treasure house, then sat cross-legged in meditation, his consciousness sinking into the treasure house of time and space.

Tong Rui concentrated his soul power on the entire corpse, but there was still no change. He only felt that his soul power was draining away.

Even though his soul power was completely used up, he didn't feel any changes. He just felt that the speed of his soul power circulation had increased a little.

When I opened the panel, I found that my proficiency in meditation had improved. After all, running out of soul power would speed up meditation, which was common sense in the fantasy world.

After recovering his soul power, Tong Rui thought about the purpose of his second martial soul.

I took out the Star Vine and found that it had only become a little tougher, and there was no progress displayed on the panel.

"A vine has become tougher. Can it be used as a whip? Mother just said that the juice from the root is the best medicinal material. What would happen if the root was strengthened?"

Thinking of this, Tong Rui meditated while guiding his soul power to flow to the roots of the Tianxing vine.

Inside the treasure house, the Tianxing vine was getting shorter and shorter, flowing towards the roots, until the tip of the vine was also swallowed by the roots. The roots of the Tianxing vine were also constantly merging into the core.

But it came to an abrupt end here because Tong Rui had no more soul power.

But fortunately, the process is irreversible. Even without Tong Rui's full supply of soul power, the treasure house will automatically absorb the soul power and slowly strengthen it.

While Tong Rui was doing his best to recover his soul power, he was observing the flow of soul power in his body. He couldn't help but sigh that the gap between talent and family background was really huge.

While the treasure house absorbs soul power to strengthen itself, the body, as a medium for the martial soul, will also passively absorb soul power. However, most of it is absorbed by the treasure house, and Tong Rui only absorbs about 20% of the soul power.

Normally, if Tong Rui's cultivation speed is 1 per hour, plus the soul power passively absorbed by the Treasure House of Time and Space, his cultivation speed will be 1.1.

However, the treasure house is running all the time, but a person’s cultivation is not always going on.

Excluding the time he needs to study knowledge every day and not counting the time he needs to strengthen his soul rings and use his soul skills, Tong Rui can only practice for about 6 hours a day.

In other words, even with the continuous absorption of soul power by the treasure house every day, Tong Rui can only absorb 8.4 units of soul power a day.

Compared with children of ordinary people, the gap is very obvious.

Ordinary children can only learn basic meditation methods, and children of this age are competitive and easily influenced by other things and living environment.

Tong Rui can still be considered to be able to control himself, coupled with the influence of his innate soul power level, as well as medicinal baths, soul skill training, etc.

Tong Rui was not clear about the differences in the meditation methods practiced by these sects, but he believed that, except for Qian Renxue, no one in this world could surpass him in talent.

In this way, Tong Rui spent the whole day in a cycle of meditation - infusing soul power - meditation - using soul skills - meditation.

In the evening, when the mother and son were having dinner, Tong Rui asked, "Why hasn't Dad come back yet?"

"The spirit ring your father wants to obtain should be about 20,000 years old. Such spirit beasts have large territories and are very difficult to deal with. Even if you can't defeat them, it's easy for them to escape. In addition, it takes a long time to absorb the spirit ring. It will probably take about a week for them to come back."

After finishing dinner, Tong Rui returned to the backyard and wanted to continue using his soul skills to upgrade his soul ring as soon as possible.

On the other side, Mo Yun was processing the medicinal herbs collected today when he suddenly heard Tong Rui shouting at him in the backyard.

His face suddenly changed, he summoned his martial spirit, and rushed to the backyard, looking at Tong Rui and asked hurriedly: "What's wrong, son, are you injured in the experiment?"

"No, no, I found that my martial soul has changed! Mom, please test my first soul skill."

Tong Rui just stretched out his hand, and a circle of yellow soul rings rose from under his feet, and a star disk appeared in his hand.

Tong Rui's face turned serious, he raised the star plate in his hand, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Please listen to my prayer, stars!" As soon as the words fell, the star disk suddenly lit up. Mo Yun vaguely saw an inconspicuous light of pale golden light falling from the sky and landing on his star disk.

Suddenly, the star disk became extremely bright, and a galaxy-like particle effect spread out. This is...

Second mutation of martial spirit? Mo Yun immediately thought of this possibility.

The light from the star disk shone on Tong Rui's face, and he suddenly looked taller. Surrounded by the starlight, he looked like a noble king, with an awe-inspiring and inviolable air.

The soul ring under his feet was also filled with starlight, and a golden star lit up on his forehead.

The star disk turned, and the magical hexagram flew out and landed directly at Mo Yun's feet.

In an instant, Mo Yun felt his whole body tighten, and he lost the ability to move. Starlight shone brightly, and lines of stars rose from under his feet. Wherever they passed, they turned into chains, sealing her body.

Mo Yun hurriedly mobilized her soul power to resist, but she was surprised to find that there seemed to be a special power sealing her, and the speed of her soul power was much slower than normal.

However, in about three seconds, Mo Yun used his soul power to break free.

Tong Rui's face looked a little pale. He looked at Mo Yun and said, "I found that at night, I can draw on the power of the starry sky. The star disk will give me astrological attributes at night, allowing me to draw on the power of the stars."

"The astrological attribute is absolutely valid. With my current strength, I can use the star disk as a guide to freeze a person. The speed of dissolving it depends on the person's own cultivation. But the absolute validity is at least one second."

Mo Yun was extremely surprised. He never expected that his son could be so talented.

Then, Tong Rui took out the root of the Star Vine that he had practiced for a day. It had now turned into a round green bead, and the surface of the bead was sparkling with star-like light.

"Is this made from the corpse of the Tianxing vine?" Mo Yun asked curiously.

"That's right, Mom. You should try to circulate your soul power to practice." Tong Rui said proudly.

At the beginning, when refining the roots of the Heavenly Star Vine, Bao Ku simply fused the Heavenly Star Vine into the roots.

This kind of Tianxing vine has no changes except that its nutritional value is higher. At that time, Tong Rui happened to be thinking about the problem of cultivating talent.

So, unconsciously, the sphere made from the root of the Heavenly Star Vine transformed into a round bead.

Although it did not become a gem that enhanced one's talent for cultivation in the end, it retained the Heavenly Star Vine's ability to attract star power for cultivation.

After the experiment, Mo Yun opened his eyes in surprise: "I didn't expect that you could make such a powerful weapon with your martial spirit!"

Tong Rui: ????

Mo Yun looked at his son's expression and asked doubtfully, "Isn't it a weapon that can detonate the power of stars through soul power?"

"Don't you feel that your cultivation speed has increased?" Tong Rui asked with his eyes wide open.

Mo Yun then looked at the Heavenly Star Vine Bead in his hand in surprise and said with a wry smile, "Ah? Haha, it turns out to be used to speed up the circulation of soul power? I thought the soul power released by attracting the star power just now was used to detonate."

"By the way, this has no effect on your practice, right?"

Tong Rui smiled and said, "No, but the soul power I have cultivated in this day can only make one."

"That's good. Wait for your father to come back and ask him to bring back two more Heavenly Star Vines. Collecting more will speed up your cultivation. The cultivation speed is the fastest before the age of 20. You are born with full soul power. Maybe you can cultivate to Soul King by the age of 20."

"Your spirit skills are also very unusual. Wait for your father to teach you the rest. He will definitely be surprised."

As they spoke, the two of them looked up at the starry sky, looking forward to Tong Qingtian's return.
