Douluo: Son of the Stars

Chapter 78: Star God Road
The God-given soul ring will grant the most needed soul skills and the highest level soul ring that can be tolerated. Tong Rui will naturally not waste it on his own star disk martial soul.

Tong Rui adjusted himself on the top of the mountain for three days. When his energy and spirit reached its peak, Tong Rui was ready to condense his soul core!

Among soul masters, only one in a hundred can cultivate a soul core. The seven-ring soul saint level cultivation is the symbol of truly entering the high-level soul master. It is also the first step for Tong Rui to condense a soul core.

Why is the Title Douluo so strong? In addition to the soul power level, it is also because when breaking through the title, the soul core will naturally condense. With the soul core, the soul master can truly develop towards the direction of the martial soul true body.

In a soul master's lifetime, most people only have one chance to condense their soul core. During the condensation process, the fluctuation of soul power follows the principles of heaven and earth, which is also the best opportunity for soul masters to gain insights. Therefore, Tong Rui must condense his soul core in the most peak posture.

As the seventh level of "Star God Art" was activated, the original soul power vortex turned into soul power light bands, which continued to collapse inward while circling. It felt like a black hole appeared in the dantian, and this black hole absorbed everything from the outside world during the process of continuous collapse.

In the sky, the starlight turned into vitality and continuously replenished Tong Rui's body. Tong Rui was completely immersed in feeling the soul core, so in the outside world that he did not notice, the star disk martial soul emerged out of thin air, but the circles of runes surrounding the central gem emitted a dazzling light.

Tong Rui silently practiced the secret method of Qi and Blood, and a large amount of soul power was absorbed into his body, but the over-circulation situation like last time did not happen again.

Soul masters have to return to refine their bodies after reaching a certain level of cultivation. This is because in the process of continuous improvement and breakthrough of soul power, without a strong physique, it is impossible to withstand such strong energy fluctuations.

Tong Rui's physique was strong enough, but it was still not enough to condense a soul core at the Soul Saint stage. This was also a small flaw left over from when Tong Rui developed "Star God Art".

This is also a bug in the proficiency system. The Star God Art can indeed allow one to condense the first soul core at the Soul Sage stage, but without a strong physique and a solid soul power foundation, forced condensation will only result in failure.

Fortunately, Tong Rui has opened up the eight extraordinary meridians, and now has an almost complete set of soul bones, as well as the secret method of qi and blood to replenish Tong Rui's physical fitness. His physical strength has exceeded the level required to condense a soul core.

Inside the soul power vortex, it collapsed, expanded, collapsed again, and expanded again. Every time this process was repeated, Tong Rui had to endure tremendous pain.

He could also clearly feel that the elemental force of heaven and earth in the air was madly surging towards him during this process, and every surge brought about very strong fluctuations in soul power.

While Tong Rui was absorbing the energy of the starry sky, the Shura mark between his eyebrows also shone brightly.

Tang Chen in the Slaughter City was extremely surprised after receiving the news. He immediately appeared above Tong Rui and waved his hands in the air. Suddenly, the originally strong airflow in the sky became gentle.

The surrounding airflow was twisting violently under his control, and every twist and turn would attract a large amount of heaven and earth energy.

These elements of heaven and earth were constantly compressed and purified under Tang Chen's control. Gradually, a layer of white halo began to appear around Tong Rui's body.

Tang Chen stretched his left hand downwards, and suddenly, a white halo surrounding his body descended from the sky and directly wrapped around Tong Rui's body below.

The white light he released continued to pour down, and Tong Rui below immediately felt it. When his body began to absorb the heaven and earth energy in the air, he had already entered a wonderful state.

His consciousness began to spread outwards, and vaguely, it seemed as if countless energy molecules in the air were cheering for him. He could even distinguish the various attributes of these energies. Among them, the astrological attribute was the most intense, followed by the life and killing attributes.

There is also the tenacious earth attribute, the strong wind attribute, and even a vague sense of the existence of fate and evil attributes around him.

It was this huge amount of various elemental forces of heaven and earth that were constantly merging into his body. During the fusion process, Tong Rui's entire body was trembling slightly, and with every tremor, the air would distort more violently.

At this moment, the elemental force in the air suddenly became stronger. He was able to see every element clearly before, but now it seemed as if he saw a vast sea of ​​elements, and his body was immersed in this sea of ​​elements.

The dense elements of various attributes swarmed in, penetrated into his body, and merged into his middle dantian. The soul power light bands suddenly became clear, and the rotation speed began to speed up. In the middle dantian, an oval crystal gradually took shape.

The rotation of the external star disk was getting faster and faster. At the moment when the elliptical crystal took shape, the ring outside the central orb of the star disk broke into circles, and was divided into nine rings from the inside to the outside. Each ring rotated around the central orb.

As the central gem shone brightly, the dazzling galaxy was imprinted in it, and the starlight enveloped Tong Rui. The crystal in the middle dantian also slowly turned into the shape of the central gem.

Tong Rui only felt that the soul power in his Dantian became extremely pure, and the rich soul power washed over his body. Driven by the star power of the star-unparalleled soul skill, it naturally merged with his body. Then it flowed into the middle Dantian and gathered towards the soul core that was about to take shape.

Tong Rui's heart became calmer, and he was completely immersed in the perception of the starry world. Silently meditating and feeling, every energy change made him feel that his life was constantly sublimating, as if he was about to enter another world. The soul core itself is a change in vital signs. From this moment on, he was no longer an ordinary human being, but truly became a superior being.

The formation of the soul core can extend the lifespan of normal humans by a hundred years. Even if Tong Rui stops practicing now, he can still live for more than two hundred years.

The smile on Tang Chen's face became more and more intense. At this time, he no longer needed to control it deliberately. The elemental force of heaven and earth that he guided was constantly merging in that direction. After the bridge was built, Tong Rui was absorbing it completely on his own.

Then, he looked to the west and suddenly accelerated towards the sea. This was the promise given to him by the Asura God. To help Tong Rui gather the vitality of heaven and earth, he could temporarily leave the Slaughter City for a month.

Time passed by minute by minute, from night to day, and a whole day passed.

The longer the time is, when Tong Rui wakes up, the greater the overall improvement will be, and the stronger his understanding of soul power will be.

Condensing the soul core is also known as the process of a martial soul being reborn. After condensing the soul core, the martial soul of the soul master will undergo another qualitative change. For example, Dugu Bo's Green Phosphorus Snake evolved into an emperor when he entered the title.

The long time it takes to inject the elemental energy of heaven and earth also means that it will take longer for the martial soul to evolve, which means that Tong Rui's martial soul is strong enough.

Tong Rui maintained this posture of absorbing the energy of heaven and earth for nine days and nine nights.

In the Dantian, all the light bands have disappeared, replaced by an oval soul core that sparkles with brilliant light.

The soul core is the size of a pigeon egg and is extremely solid. Inside the soul core, there seems to be a star core that runs through the universe.

But Tong Rui did not wake up. In the afterglow of his enlightenment, Tong Rui's fourth soul ring shone brightly. A golden round bead circled and shrank around his body, quickly crossing the ten thousand year stage, and a trace of red began to merge into the soul ring.

Three months later, it finally turned into a blood-red halo surrounding the star disk. It should now be called the Star God Pearl. The other six soul rings reappeared, shining with the blood-red halo.

Tong Rui's aura rose again. With the infusion of the hundred thousand year soul ring, his entire temperament became different again, with a bit more of an otherworldly aura. At the same time, golden rays of light began to appear behind him.

These golden rays intertwined and outlined each other, and a strange and huge rune finally took shape.

This is the mark of the Star God’s throne!

With the integration of the hundred thousand year soul ring and the first level reward from the second Shura test, Tong Rui's soul power was further improved and directly upgraded to level 73.

The 18-year-old Tong Rui is already a level 73 Soul Saint. Equipped with the two-word battle armor "Starry Sky" and the god-level martial soul - Star God Pearl, Tong Rui's combat power is no less than that of a titled one!
Looking at the seven soul rings, five black and two red, wrapped around him, Tong Rui couldn't help but get excited.

In addition to the second soul ring being advanced to one hundred thousand years, the Yuehuatongbilian soul bone on the right arm also advanced to one hundred thousand years simultaneously.

Counting the already fused 100,000-year-old Chongming Bird's left leg bone, the Ice Silkworm's head soul bone that evolved with the God of Killing Domain, the Star Armor Dragon Turtle's trunk bone that was being nurtured in the treasure house, and the Earth Violent Bear's right leg bone, Tong Rui only had the Vulcan Moth's left arm bone left to complete the 100,000-year-old soul bone.

As the soul core condensed, the martial soul evolved into the Star God Pearl, and brought Tong Rui an innate realm - the Star God Realm!
Within the scope of the Star God Realm, all of Tong Rui's soul skills will have astrological attributes added to them! It can be said that Tong Rui is already the world's undisputed number one controller.

With the complete evolution of his first martial soul, Tong Rui also knew how he should embark on the path to becoming a Star God.

Just as Tong Rui had originally considered, Star God did not have a bottleneck, but if he only relied on his own practice, perhaps it would take Tong Rui thousands of years to reach the realm of God King.

Therefore, relying on the inheritance of the Shura God's throne, he quickly entered the God King realm, and then relying on the Star God's throne, he broke through the God King realm and became the true Lord of the Universe, the King of Gods!
After taking back his martial soul, Tong Rui activated the Shura mark between his eyebrows.

"The third of the Nine Tests of Shura. Defeat nine titled people. The time limit is one year. The reward for completing it is that Shura's affinity will increase by 10%."

Tong Rui looked at the assessment and didn't know whether it felt like eating a mouthful of chocolate that tasted like shit, or eating a mouthful of shit that tasted like chocolate.
