Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 618 Thriller Scene

But what was even more suffocating for everyone was that Chen Ping's right palm, which had withstood the corrosive light, had now lost its dark light and was completely unharmed!

At this moment, Chen Ping was using the special palm technique of the Power Clan, Iron Forging Hand. When cultivated to the great perfection, the palm could turn into an iron-gray color that emitted a dark light, with a metallic luster and texture, greatly increasing its defensive power and isolating it from most poisons.

He had wanted to learn this move back in his second year at Shrek Academy when he faced that scorpion tiger.

The stinger of the scorpion's tail is extremely venomous. Even if the stinger is deflected by a stick, a flick of the venomous hook will cause numbness and itching in the hand, rendering the user unable to use their abilities.

The Iron Forging Hand of the Power Clan is different from the Jade Hand. It can be naturally forged by simply applying force to the palm while forging iron. Therefore, over the years, Chen Ping has long since mastered this move, and his level is in no way inferior to Titan, the former patriarch of the Power Clan.

In addition, Chen Ping could attach his blood energy to his palms. With the combination of these two factors, Chen Ping's palms formed an effect similar to iron palms and steel hands in a short period of time. Even corrosive rays could not directly hit his palms.

"What!?"

Seeing this unbelievable scene, Merck's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. How could this be possible!
The fact that his palms could withstand corrosive rays is inhuman!
As if responding to Merck's thoughts, a silver-gray six-pointed star mark faintly appeared on Chen Ping's left hand on the competition stage, while a gray aura swirled and wrapped around his right hand.

Unbeknownst to him, his eyes had completely turned into a gray-black color, a symbol of the soul and death.

The next moment, he slapped down with his left hand in a six-pointed star formation. As a surge of silver-gray light appeared, countless indistinct and intangible soul flames emerged from the six-pointed star formation.

The soul flames seemed quite excited. As soon as they emerged, they rushed towards the pile of unassembled parts that Chen Ping had made earlier. Then, the parts began to move strangely.

Yes, the area where Chen Ping was located was eerily resembling a horror movie filming location. A soul-guided robot dog with a head shaped like a blooming energy cannon had motors on its limbs spinning rapidly as it emerged from a pile of parts.

Soon, one after another, dog legs made of rare metals seemed to come alive and were automatically installed onto the robot dog's torso.

Although two of its legs were installed backwards, the mechanical dog simply shook its body, causing the two backwards legs to fall off and be correctly reinstalled.

What the hell is going on? Is this an omnic riot?
The audience members, watching the robotic dogs and spiders assembling themselves from the pile of parts, began to turn pale.

Almost everyone who had been sitting upright in the central VIP room jumped up at the same time, their faces filled with horror.

Even the female vice-leader was no exception. They all quickly stood by the window, staring intently at Chen Ping below.

It could be said that among everyone present, only Huo Yuhao truly understood what was happening. Chen Ping had used the summoning array of the six-pointed star to summon the soul flames of over a dozen mid-level undead from the undead demiplane!
Yes, Chen Ping didn't summon the undead creatures from the demiplane at all. Instead, he spent five hours temporarily creating a dozen or so bodies for them using rare metals. Then, he was able to summon a large number of undead that didn't need to appear in physical form at once without using the Gate of the Dead.

The reason Chen Ping didn't reassemble the bodies of the mechanical dogs and spiders after creating the soul tool was because it's basic for undead creatures to lose a hand or foot; they can put their bodies back together on their own!
Undead creatures can use soulfire to attach themselves to any object that does not have a resistance to souls. Among them, corpses, which have the highest affinity with souls, are the most suitable for them to attach to, but this does not mean that they can only attach themselves to corpses.

If a spirit possesses sufficient spiritual power, an undead creature can actually possess a large tree or even a mountain. For details, please refer to the stories of the Tree Demon Granny and the Black Mountain Demon.
Of course, this is all based on the case where the soul power is strong. What if the soul power is not that strong?
There is a solution. The answer lies in the soul-guided mechanical dog and soul-guided mechanical spider that Chen Ping created at this time. They have pre-fabricated movable joints and are powered by a sealed milk bottle.

It's too strenuous to directly drive your mechanical joints with your soul power. It's better to manipulate bones, a material with extremely high soul affinity.
No problem, you can just use your soul power to drive it a little, and the sealed baby bottle integrated into the device will do the rest for you.

"Sa sa sa sa sa sa sa sa sa sa."

In an instant, the rustling sound of metal dog legs and metal spider feet stepping on the metal fighting arena floor came like a tidal wave, making Merck on the opposite side feel his scalp tingle.

The next moment, those headless, or rather, heads that were actually formed by a penetrating, energy-concentrating cannon embedded in their abdomens, soul-guided dogs aimed at Merck and unleashed beams of laser light.

Faced with a dense barrage of lasers shooting towards him simultaneously, all Merck could do was roll over lazily and awkwardly dodge the barrage.

Don't be fooled by the fact that these mechanical dogs' heads are equipped with level four energy-concentrating cannons. If they hit them, they'll definitely drill a hole in them and leave a gaping wound. They'll have no choice but to dodge.

But if he were to activate an invincibility shield to withstand these attacks, he would be utterly out of his mind.

However, just after he dodged a volley of fire from the soul-guided dogs, the soul-guided spiders, which were not equipped with any ranged attack capabilities, finally installed their spider legs from the pile of parts. Each of them had their soul flames surging, and they emitted a terrifying, eerie laugh that ordinary people could not hear. Then they revealed a pair of soul-guided spears with high-frequency vibrations.

These piercing soul-guided spears, imbued with high-frequency vibrations, are also level-four soul-guided devices. Since each one is only the size of a finger, they are made more than ten times faster than normal melee soul-guided devices. This is one of the reasons why Chen Ping was able to make so many soul-guided devices in five hours.

"You bastard, get out of here!"

At this moment, Merck took out a huge soul-guided scythe, which was the melee soul-guided device he had made. With one slash, he destroyed several of the soul-guided spiders.

Unfortunately, the remaining Soul-Guided Spiders seemed completely oblivious to fear, continuing to leap and hop towards Merck. Upon reaching Merck, they swung their legs, which were piercing through Soul-Guided Spears, and stabbed into Merck's flesh.
