Douluo: Emerald Poison King

Chapter 285: Goodbye Lou Gao and Soul Bone Enhancement Technique (Part )
Seeing Chen Ming appear, Golden Crocodile Douluo immediately stepped forward, said a few words to Chen Ming with a slightly strange expression, and then shifted the topic to the metal in his hand.

Golden Crocodile Douluo raised his right arm, grabbed the metal in his hand and injected soul power into it, and the metal inside resonated with Golden Crocodile Douluo's right arm. This was exactly what puzzled Golden Crocodile Douluo.

In his opinion, metal is not life, let alone soul bone, so how could it resonate with him? However, as a peerless Douluo, Golden Crocodile Douluo was absolutely sure that this piece of metal could indeed fuse with his right arm, or more precisely, the soul bone in his right arm.

Although Golden Crocodile Douluo brought Lou Gao's hunting soul and fought with Xiong Jun in the end, he also knew that it was all because of Chen Ming. Although he had a good relationship with Lou Gao, it was not to the extent of being open-hearted. So he deliberately waited outside, wanting to ask Chen Ming if he had any opinion on this.

After all, his martial soul had just been upgraded with the breakthrough, and he was not yet a normal Crocodile King of the Golden Crocodile lineage, but a Golden Crocodile Dragon that was transforming into a Golden Dragon, so he himself did not dare to say for sure what the problem was.

Chen Ming reached out and placed his hand on the Golden Crocodile Douluo's right arm, feeling the fluctuations in it. Soon he discovered the source of the fluctuations.

The resonance between Golden Crocodile Douluo and this piece of spirit-forged metal did not come from his martial spirit, the Golden Crocodile Dragon, but from his right arm bone.

After hearing Chen Ming's words, Golden Crocodile Douluo showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

"This right arm bone of mine is not very old, only about three to ten thousand years old. But its origin is special, coming from an extremely rare mutant soul beast, the Gold Devouring Scarab Beetle."

"The Gold Devouring Scarab is a variant of the Gold Devouring Beetle. Although this soul beast has golden blood, its strength is not very high when it is young. It is just a low-level soul beast. It survives in the deep underground mineral veins and mainly relies on numbers to overwhelm the enemy. Its attribute is gold, and its characteristics are strength and defense."

"But this soul beast has a very special innate ability, which is that it can grow by gnawing on metal. This not only improves soul power but also improves quality. The strength of the gold-eating beetles in high-quality veins will also increase accordingly, and they are on a completely different level from their counterparts in low-quality veins."

"The maximum age of the gold-eating beetles in low-level mineral veins is no more than a hundred years, and their body size is no larger than a forearm. Only in medium-sized mineral veins are there the possibility of the emergence of thousand-year and ten-thousand-year-old gold-eating beetles, whose body size will also increase to one to two meters. And along with the different properties of the mineral veins, the properties of the gold-eating beetles will also vary."

"The gold-eating beetles in the fire-attributed veins have fire attributes, and those in the ice-attributed veins have ice attributes. It is said that some veins where giant dragons have fallen have also produced mutant species with some dragon blood. But no matter how they change, the gold attribute of the gold-eating beetle itself must remain unchanged."

"In some special mineral veins, some individuals of the gold-eating beetles will accidentally devour special ores."

"Generally speaking, the lifespan of such a gold-eating beetle will be increased to ten thousand years. However, if the quality of the gold-eating beetle itself is extremely high, or if it has devoured more than one piece of special metal, then the gold-eating beetle will mutate."

"Those with other attributes will become top-level soul beasts, but if they are just pure gold attributes, they will become super soul beasts such as the Gold Devouring Scarab Beetle."

"This soul beast is extremely rare, but its quality is extremely powerful. Its gold attribute strength is close to the extreme, not inferior to that of the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear. As a beetle soul beast, it is even better in terms of strength, and its defense is not weaker than that of the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear. The disadvantage is that this soul beast does not have much brains, and the next generation of the gold-eating scarab beetle cannot inherit its mutation."

"This soul bone of mine comes from a 30,000-year-old gold-eating scarab beetle. I obtained it when I was young and was training in a branch of the Spirit Hall. It was obtained by resolving a mine attack by a soul beast. The soul skill is shocking force, which can greatly improve my strength, attack, and defense. Although it is only 30,000 years old, its effect and quality are no less than those of ordinary soul bones that are 70,000 to 80,000 years old." "I originally thought that the power of the gold-eating scarab beetle was just a soul skill. Now it seems that this soul bone seems to contain the most essential power of soul beasts like the gold-eating scarab beetle?"

"But I have obtained this soul bone for nearly 150 years. Why have I never felt the special abilities hidden in it before? Is it because of my soul power breakthrough? My martial soul improvement? Or is it because this piece of metal is special?"

Golden Crocodile Douluo frowned and said something that was very unusual for an ordinary soul master.

"I have a feeling that if I fuse this piece of metal into my right arm bone, the age and quality of my right arm bone will be enhanced? But my right arm bone is not an external soul bone."

Soul bone age improvement, this skill is not possessed by Chen Ming and Angel God. Chen Ming has no experiment or reference object, while Angel God has theoretically deduced several methods to improve soul bones, but is limited by his own state and cannot conduct experiments.

Chen Ming had the skills to improve and transform his martial soul, improve the age of his soul ring, and improve his soul power, vitality, and mental strength. The only thing missing from the full set of skills was the soul bone, and he didn't expect to find an opportunity here with Golden Crocodile Douluo.

The soul bone enhancement technology of Dou Er was only mentioned briefly, and it did not appear again in Dou San and Dou Si. In addition, it mentioned the use of secret soul bones as a fusion aid. Chen Ming has wanted to reproduce this technology for more than one or two years, but he has never had a clue.

After all, he actually didn't even know how to make a secret soul bone, and he had no idea about the secret method of the secret soul bone.

Chen Ming, who had just left Lou Gao, pulled Golden Crocodile Douluo back to Lou Gao's secret room. Lou Gao, who was excitedly forging iron for a few strokes, put down the hammer in his hand with a resentful look again and walked towards the two of them.

Lou Gao likes ironwork, and this cannot be changed. Even though he has become a fanatic follower of Chen Ming, his personality has not been distorted. For Lou Gao, this is like being interrupted in the middle of sex, twice. No matter how good-tempered he is, it is impossible for him to have no reaction at all.

But after knowing this special change, Lou Gao's expression immediately changed 180 degrees. He immediately pulled Golden Crocodile Douluo aside, quickly groped Golden Crocodile Douluo's arm, and then felt the metal, and the two began to discuss.

Later, Chen Ming also joined in and put forward his own views on using special metals to improve the lifespan and quality of soul bones.

After working for several hours, with the help of Chen Ming, the connection between the spirit-forged metal and the Golden Crocodile Douluo was completely stabilized, and part of the power was absorbed by the Golden Crocodile Douluo's right arm bone. Under Chen Ming's observation, the age of the Golden Crocodile Douluo's right arm bone increased. Although it was only a few decades to a hundred years, it did open up a new idea for Chen Ming.

A crude but not simple technique has just been produced. Although it can only target the right arm bone of Golden Crocodile Douluo and this piece of spirit-forged metal, it is also a genuine technique to improve soul bones.
