Douluo Jueshi, world modulation mode

Mental strength?
Everyone looked at each other.

They were familiar with this word.

Even in the former Sun Moon Empire, which was relatively backward in this area, there is still a lot of teaching content on spiritual power in the current martial spirit teaching. After all, this is related to whether a soul master can successfully absorb a soul ring that is ten thousand years old or older. Ten thousand-year-old soul beasts can leave resentment in the soul ring, and this hurdle must be overcome in order to absorb it successfully.

"Because mental power involves the ability to absorb souls, how many souls one can absorb, and what level of souls one can absorb."

Anzhen then explained the concept of souls.

"I have previously stated that I have two spirit companions: one is the Snow Empress, the Ice and Snow Goddess, and the other is the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, the Ice Empress."

"Your Majesty," Elder Xuan asked, "Do you intend to popularize the Soul Spirit system?"

"We should probably negotiate with the rulers of the Star Dou Great Forest or other gathering places of soul beasts," Ning Yunzhi said.

After all, according to An Zhen, the soul contract requires the consent of the soul beast.

Everyone simultaneously recalled what An Zhen had said earlier. He not only had the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor by his side, but also the Hellish Demon Dragon King Zi Ji from the Star Dou Great Forest.

"No." To everyone's surprise, An Zhen gently shook her head.

"With the development of the times, not only is the soul guidance technology advancing, but soul masters are also becoming stronger. Ten thousand years ago, there was not even the concept of soul core. Ten thousand years ago, for example, in the era of the Martial Soul Empire, the only two people recorded in history who possessed twin martial souls were Bibi Dong and Tang San."

"But nowadays, twin martial souls are still very rare, but it's no longer a situation where there are only one or two in each era. Shrek Academy alone can recruit one or two students with twin martial souls every few years. And this is without considering other families and sects, as well as the situation on the original Sun Moon Continent. In the future, the soul master system will inevitably become stronger and stronger."

An Zhen looked at Kong Deming and said, "Professor Kong, why don't you demonstrate your research results?"

"Yes." Kong Deming stood up and left the main hall under everyone's gaze. In a very short time, he brought back a girl of about eighteen years old, dressed in the clothing of the Sun and Moon Family (royal family).

"Xu Tianxuan greets Your Majesty." The beautiful young woman bowed to An Zhen. She was of the "Tian" generation, Xu Tianzhen's cousin.

An Zhen said, "Xu Tianxuan, a level 54 Soul King, whose Martial Soul is Silver Moon."

"Now, use your first soul skill to attack Kong Deming."

"Yes." Xu Tianxuan nodded, then looked at Kong Deming.

"Come on." Kong Deming's burning gaze fell on Xu Tianxuan, as if he were looking at his most prized work.

"First Soul Skill, Moon Blade!" Xu Tianxuan shouted, and a silver light appeared on her right hand. She swung it forward, and it transformed into a silver arc-shaped light blade, which struck Kong Deming's protective soul power.

Those in the main hall whose cultivation was at least at the Soul Douluo level clearly sensed the power of this attack. For the first soul skill of a power-attack type Soul King, it was quite impressive.

But everyone was still puzzled: what exactly was His Majesty trying to demonstrate?
“Now, watch closely.” An Zhen’s calm yet passionate voice echoed throughout the hall. “This will be an epoch-making event, even overturning the entire Soul Master system and leaving an incomparably glorious mark on the history of Douluo Continent.”

Upon hearing this, everyone focused intently, their expressions revealing great anticipation.

"Xu Tianxuan, use Soul Armor, and then use your first Soul Skill to attack Kong Deming."

"Yes!"

Soul Armament?

A new word came to everyone's mind.

This is probably what His Majesty wanted them to see.

"Armed!"

As Xu Tianxuan spoke, a silver moon-like mark appeared between her brows. As moonlight swirled, similar silver moons materialized on her shoulders, chest, abdomen, hands, and knees. A dazzling silver light shone forth, and moonlight showered down, weaving a hazy veil that made her appear like a goddess of the moon. Simultaneously, the surrounding energy of heaven and earth suddenly converged upon Xu Tianxuan, surging into her body. Her aura surged at a visible speed, instantly reaching the Soul Emperor level. However, this upward momentum showed no sign of stopping, until she crossed two major levels, reaching the Soul Saint level.

"this--"

Many people suddenly stood up, their eyes wide open, as if they had seen something utterly unbelievable.

"The first soul skill, Moon Blade."

It's the exact same soul skill as before.

However, the silver spiritual light gathered in Xu Tianxuan's hand became even more solid, and the moonlight flowed around her body, as if simulating the operation of soul power in the human body's meridians. A much larger power was directly mobilized. If it was a small river before, it was now a rushing river. It was almost transformed into a tangible moon blade and swung out.

"Soul Saint!" Elder Mu uttered the two words.

"Everyone sit down."

The cold voice instantly extinguished the burning desire for knowledge and exploration in everyone's hearts, and they had no choice but to sit down obediently, but at this moment, their hearts felt like they were being tickled by feathers, itchy.

Everyone perceived it very clearly.

That previous attack was only equivalent to an attack from an excellent Soul King.

But now he is essentially a Soul Saint who has not yet activated his Martial Soul True Body.

That's a leap of two major levels!
The opponent didn't use any amplification-type soul rings or soul skills. It might be a soul bone, but even a soul skill from a 100,000-year soul bone wouldn't be this outrageous.

"Kong Deming, please explain it to everyone," An Zhen said.

"Yes."

A flurry of eager gazes fell upon Kong Deming. His Majesty had previously said that Kong Deming should demonstrate his research findings; could this so-called soul weapon be considered a research result?
"As you all have seen," Kong Deming proudly puffed out his chest, his emotions tinged with excitement. "Xu Tianxuan's ability to instantly elevate her status from Soul King to Soul Saint is the Soul Armament that Jing Hongchen, Ye Yulin, and I have jointly developed in its initial stages."

"This inspiration comes from the level 10 soul tools of our level 10 soul masters. What makes level 10 soul tools very different from other soul tools is that they require the soul tool to be fused with one's own martial soul in order to complete the most crucial step in their creation, truly combining the soul tool and the martial soul together."

"Based on this, our initial idea was to give the Martial Soul a layer of armor. For a specific concept, you can refer to the humanoid Soul Guidance Devices that you have seen before, but those were on the outside, while this one is on the inside."

Kong Deming spoke with great enthusiasm and even excitement, rattling off a string of technical terms. But no one showed the slightest impatience; they listened intently, forcing themselves to write down every single word, even those they didn't understand. No one dared, and no one wanted, to fall behind at such a time, even for the slightest inconvenience.

"But as everyone knows, the only metals that can be integrated into the body, or rather, the sea of ​​spirit, or the martial soul, are the legendary artifacts recorded in the classics."

"Our level 10 Soul Tools can be considered a semi-divine artifact. They possess some of the characteristics of divine artifacts, but because of our own strength, they are not true divine artifacts. However, based on the fact that level 10 Soul Tools can integrate into and fuse with the Martial Soul, and accept or possess the attributes of the Martial Soul, we have developed a special metal that we call Soul Crystal. This is the metal that forms the level 10 Soul Tools themselves after they are fused with the Martial Soul."

"Besides being able to fuse with a martial soul and be absorbed into the sea of ​​spirit, its other function corresponds to the function of a level 10 soul tool being accepted and possessing martial soul attributes. It is exactly the opposite of the ability of the living metal in the classical records that can give metal properties, make metal evolve, and is known as the mother of metals. It can take away the properties and elements of metals or other substances."

"In this way, as long as a newly created, attribute-less soul crystal absorbs metals or rare treasures with attributes similar to the soul master's martial soul, it can be compatible with the soul master's martial soul and then be forged into armor that can be worn by the martial soul."

"But this step is not the end. The soul weapon has been created, but it still needs a final fusion. The key to this step lies in the properties of the metal or rare material absorbed by the soul crystal. This property must be compatible with the soul master's martial soul property. Otherwise, at best, the soul weapon, which should enhance the martial soul's power, will weaken the master's own strength. At worst, the martial soul property will conflict with the soul weapon, and it may even lead to the martial soul being destroyed."

These are all based on real-life examples and experiments. At least a thousand NPC puppets sacrificed their lives to obtain the most accurate data. Science demands rigor; if it's not rigorous, the death of the NPC puppets is harmless, but the living Soul Masters will suffer as a result.

“There is a lot to learn about this.” Kong Deming took out many identical books from his storage soul tool and distributed them to everyone. “These contain the detailed contents, along with real and detailed data recorded during the experiments.”

"Although the probability of failure in the final fusion step is very small as long as we follow the planned steps, currently less than one in a thousand, it is still relatively risky compared to the previous steps. In addition to choosing an element similar to the martial soul's attribute, the most crucial thing is the integration. No two leaves in the world are exactly the same, and the elements absorbed by the soul crystal are even more so. They cannot be perfectly and 100% compatible with the martial soul. Fire elements are also different from one another."

"The process of integration is actually about using one's own martial spirit to cultivate one's soul martial spirit, completely transforming the attributes of the soul weapon into one's own attributes."

"Actually, there is a very perfect fusion of martial soul and soul weapon, which is to eliminate the original step of absorbing metals or rare treasures that are compatible with the martial soul's attributes using soul crystals. Instead, one can directly forge a soul weapon with no attributes using attribute-free soul crystals, and then slowly imbue it with the martial soul's aura using one's own martial soul. However, this method is relatively slow." (End of this chapter)
