Douluo, my clone Groudon

Chapter 306 New Incarnation, Bo Xi
Gula quickly approached and carefully probed with his mental energy. Soon, at the center of the oldest and most robust Bosidang Soul Beast Mother Plant, he discovered several newly formed, fingernail-sized, yet rich in life essence and marine essence deep blue seeds.

“You’re the one.” Gula carefully picked up a few seeds, as if holding the most precious gems.

Late at night, the guest room area of ​​the Starship was completely silent.

The students had already fallen into deep meditation or were asleep.

Gula's figure moved through the corridor like a ghost. His spiritual power, like invisible tentacles, quietly probed into the rooms of the students in the Star Luo Royal Academy and Sun Moon Federation delegations whose strength ranged from Soul Master to Soul King and whose soul power was relatively pure.

"Hypnotic powder".

The hypnotic powder's power was compressed to its limit, confining its range to the target student's entire body. Like the gentlest nightmare, it silently wrapped itself around them.

The target student felt a slight heaviness in his body while he slept, as if he had just had a debilitating nightmare. His soul power was slowly drawn away like a trickle, flowing into a deep vortex condensed in Gula's palm. The entire process was extremely discreet, without alerting anyone or leaving any trace.

The soul power of dozens of elite students converged into a vast and complex energy torrent, which was forcibly purified and refined by Gula with his own pure soul power, transforming it into the purest source of life and soul power.

Back in his room, he used telekinesis to isolate himself from the outside world. Still feeling uneasy, Gura returned to the ocean.

Gula took out the deep blue Bosidang seed. The seed pulsated slightly in his palm, as if it were alive.

"Based on the vastness of life, guided by the soul power of all beings... Awaken!"

With a low shout, Gula unleashed a torrent of pure and powerful soul energy from his palm, which had been infused with the original soul power of dozens of Soul Masters and Soul Kings, into the tiny seed.

Om-!
The deep blue seed burst forth with a dazzling light, and it expanded and grew rapidly as if inflated!
The tough, dark green stem stretched out wildly, drooping out countless filamentous leaves that emitted a blue light. In just a few minutes, a "miniature" Bo Xi Dang Soul Beast, tens of meters tall and enough to cover half a room, appeared before our eyes.

It exudes a rich life force and pure water-attribute energy fluctuations, and its age has reached a staggering five thousand years.

But that's not enough. As the foundation of Gura's sixth incarnation, what it needs is... transformation, guidance that transcends dimensions.

"Fourth Soul Skill - Forest Avatar!"

Chaotic light swirled in Gula's eyes, and the spacetime energy accumulated in his sea of ​​consciousness was being consumed wildly, distorting reality and creating a brief timeline in the void, guiding his parallel self to descend.

This time, he targeted a desperate timeline in countless parallel universes where the Sea God Tang San had completely gone mad, using his supreme divine power to stir up the entire ocean of Douluo Star, intending to flood the continent and sacrifice billions of lives to break through to the realm above God King!
In that moment when the timeline was on the verge of collapse and everything was about to be annihilated, an indomitable will that coexisted with water was captured and guided by Gula.

"Descend, benefactor from the depths of despair!"

Om-!
The space inside the secret chamber twisted violently, and the enormous phantom of the Bo Xi Dang Soul Beast suddenly collapsed and condensed, slowly forming a burly figure in the blue-purple light.

The light dissipated.

A man nearly two meters tall with an exceptionally robust and muscular physique appeared before Gula.

He had long, sea-blue hair like a deep-sea whirlpool, interspersed with eerie deep purple highlights, and his hair cascaded down to his waist.

His face was resolute, with lines as sharp as if carved by a knife and axe, carrying a sense of vicissitude and majesty from the ancient deep sea.

Most striking of all were his eyes, like the purest aquamarine, yet deep within them pulsed purple lightning that seemed to communicate with the wrath of the ocean. He wore strange armor woven from deep blue water waves and resilient seaweed, his bare, strong arms covered with fine, deep blue patterns resembling dragon scales.

A vast, pure aura, imbued with supreme water authority and a faint dragon's might, naturally emanated from it.

"Spirit of Martial Arts: Rippling Water (Bomu Pokémon, Suicune Ancient Form)"

With both water and dragon attributes, it is naturally close to and masters the laws of water, possessing extraordinary potential.

The Soul Power level is at level 50; only the Soul Spirit is needed to break through to Soul King.

After a moment's thought, Gula named it "Bo Xi!"

Bo Xi opened his eyes, a blend of sea blue and deep purple, and looked at Gula. His voice was like a deep sea current, low and powerful: "What do you want with me?"

Gula looked at the avatar before him, which exuded the aura of a water dragon king, and felt the pure water dragon power within it, as well as its almost primal affinity for the water element. He nodded in satisfaction.

The foundation of this avatar is even better than he had anticipated. In particular, the nascent form of the Water Authority, once fully developed, will possess terrifying combat power in the ocean.

However, a lingering concern also emerged.

“Level 50…that’s a very high starting point, but…” Gula frowned slightly. The level at which an avatar is born depends on the resources he invests, such as the age of the soul beast, the extradimensional energy he guides, and the strength of his own soul skills.

This time, it took the input of a five-thousand-year-old soul beast and a considerable amount of accumulated spacetime energy to create Bo Xi at level fifty. This is almost the limit he can currently achieve.

"In the future, if we cultivate a seventh or eighth incarnation... the starting point will likely still be around level 50. This is the most cost-effective level."

Gula pondered. "A level 50 avatar is a powerful asset in the early stages, but as my main body's strength rapidly increases, the level 50 avatar's combat power will increasingly fall behind. Unless..."

Unless he can find a top-tier plant soul beast of 100,000 years as the core of his avatar, but that is almost impossible.

Ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts are extremely rare and terrifyingly powerful. To capture one alive and refine it into the foundation of an avatar is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Moreover, plant-type soul beasts are even rarer. Besides, using such precious resources to create an avatar is too inefficient and wasteful! It would be better to enhance the Golden Tree's foundation and allow it to evolve into an Ancient Tree of Life as soon as possible.

"It seems that the path to incarnation also requires a new breakthrough."

Gula gazed intently at Bo Xi, whose expression remained calm and composed. "Perhaps... we need to find the answer within the soul system itself, or from a higher level of the concept of 'existence'? For example... granting the avatar some kind of 'parasitic' or 'symbiotic' ability to reside within the main body's soul rings, sharing the main body's growth? But this requires a deeper understanding of the essence of the soul and power..."

"But wouldn't it be a case of more harm than good?"

Suppressing his thoughts for the moment, Gula said to Bo Xi, "We're all on the same side, so stop pretending. Conceal your aura and hide in the shadows for now. The Star Luo Continent is just around the corner, and your stage will soon be here."

"Hmm." Bo Xi avoided answering, responding in a deep voice. His burly figure slowly blended into the shadows of the room, as if he had never been there, leaving only a faint trace of the deep sea.
