Douluo: I use shadow to open Shura

Chapter 117 Inner elixir, soul core.

"Inner core, Dean Flander truly lives up to his reputation as a Soul Saint. He found the most suitable method so quickly. However, let me also explain why Soul Bones are not very effective."

Mo Yu was willing to spend a little more time explaining in order to prove his theory was correct.

“Soul bones only treat the symptoms, not the root cause. Unless Ma Hongjun has an external soul bone that can evolve infinitely, sooner or later the soul bone will be unable to store too much evil fire and will erupt with even more powerful evil fire. At that time, Ma Hongjun’s life will be in danger.”

As Mo Yu spoke, ignoring the slight change in Ma Hongjun's expression, he began to talk about the inner core.

It's called an inner core, but it's actually a soul core.

He simply wanted to take this opportunity to openly reveal some of the settings of the Soul Core, and then begin to study it, so that Xiao Wu would be more daring in assisting him.

"I discovered the inner core from observing soul beasts. I've heard that some soul beasts possess such treasures, such as snake cores and dragon cores."

"The effects of this treasure are no less than those of a soul bone, it's just that it's not as widely applicable. So I started to investigate what these treasures were."

"After thinking about it for a while, I suspect that this is a crystallization of some kind of soul power from a soul beast, similar to a soul bone."

Mo Yu didn't say a single word of truth, yet it was all true.

Isn't this Dragon Pill just a product similar to whale glue?
"Especially in the brains of whale-type soul beasts, there is almost always something similar to whale glue, except that whale glue is used in other ways."

"However, as you know, whale-type soul beasts have always been considered sub-dragon creatures in our continent, so whale glue can also be considered another kind of dragon pill."

Upon hearing Mo Yu's words, everyone began to ponder. They were all well aware of whale glue, as it indeed had remarkable effects.

Only Dai Mubai and the other two didn't really understand it, and they didn't need this thing.

Xiao Wu understood even better that the effects of the Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue had already made her and Mo Yu's cultivation levels extremely high.

If the inner elixir is a product similar to whale glue, then there is indeed some interesting story behind it.

However, the next second, Mo Yu's words shocked everyone.

"However, according to my research, the inner core cannot actually be considered a treasure like whale glue. Treasures like whale glue are other life crystals, while the inner core is closer to the soul bone of a soul beast."

When Mo Yu said this, everyone, from teachers like Flander to students like Dai Mubai, and even Xiao Wu, was stunned.

Xiao Wu had never seen Mo Yu do this kind of research before, and her heart couldn't help but tremble.

"Brother, what are you saying?"

Xiao Wu asked in a clear, crisp voice.

After thinking for a while, Flander seemed to be deep in thought, and his brows furrowed.

"Mo Yu, you don't mean that the inner core is the prototype of the soul bone, and that Hong Jun's cultivation of the inner core is the cultivation of his own soul bone, plus the soul bone can store evil fire, and Hong Jun's inner core is related to his cultivation level, so as long as Hong Jun's cultivation level continues to improve, he can continuously store evil fire."

Flander, as expected of a Soul Saint, quickly understood the meaning behind Mo Yu's words.

"That's right. I suspect that the soul bones of soul beasts are similar to inner cores. They condense soul bone seeds within their bodies, which I call soul cores. Every soul beast that can condense a soul core is a prodigy in the soul beast world. So some soul beasts have soul bones after ten thousand years, while some even more talented ones can produce soul bones after a thousand, a hundred, or even ten years."

Mo Yu smiled slightly and explained the formation of the soul bone, after which everyone fell into complete silence.

Xiao Wu, a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form, was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth and stared at Mo Yu in disbelief.

She couldn't understand how Mo Yu knew things that only soul beasts knew.

"Mo Yu, your words are logical, but how can you prove that the one who drops a soul bone is necessarily the chosen one among soul beasts?"

Zhao Wuji suddenly spoke up, and the others echoed, "Yeah, yeah, how do you prove it?"
"Do we need to prove it, Teacher Zhao? There are incredibly powerful soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest. We can just test them when we have the chance to obtain a soul ring."

Mo Yu's words made Zhao Wuji realize instantly that Mo Yu's soul bone was obtained from a Shadow Spider.
Whether that Shadow Spider has high talent or not is another matter, but the Shadow Spider has an environment that is extremely suitable for its growth, equivalent to a high-level mimicry training environment for Soul Masters, and there is also a spiritual herb, which may increase its cultivation by smelling it. Isn't this Shadow Spider a genius in the Soul Beast world?

Zhao Wuji quickly ran out of things to say, and he began to accept Mo Yu's theory.

"A soul beast with a powerful bloodline?"

Upon hearing Mo Yu's words, the others had different thoughts. If this was true, they might not lack soul bones in the future. Of course, they would also need to have the ability to defeat powerful bloodline soul beasts.

After realizing this, the group unconsciously shook their heads. Soul beasts with powerful bloodlines were all freaks; how could they be so easy to hunt down?

However, Mo Yu did not see the approval on the expressions of the others and continued.

"If you don't believe me, you can try hunting Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bears in the future. These soul beasts have very strong bloodlines, and if they are a little older, they will definitely drop soul bones."

Upon hearing Mo Yu's words, Flanders and the others waved their hands repeatedly.

"Mo Yu, stop talking nonsense. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear is a powerful soul beast that is only ten thousand years old and is comparable to a hundred thousand-year-old soul beast."

Zhao Wuji slapped Mo Yu on the shoulder, forcefully stopping him from speaking further.

Even Zhao Wuji and Dai Mubai, who are extremely suited to the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Soul Ring, are no longer thinking about obtaining Soul Bones this way.

Just kidding, only Mo Yu would dare to mention Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

However, Mo Yu's words should be true, and the others had already confirmed it from Mo Yu's affirmative tone.

Even if Mo Yu's guess was slightly off, it was still pretty close to the truth.

"So, how do I cultivate my inner core, or rather, my soul core?"

Ma Hongjun thought this method seemed quite reliable, so he hurriedly asked.

"No, actually I don't know how to cultivate. The soul power in my body hasn't liquefied much, but I already have solid cloud crystals. As long as I condense them into a sphere and compress them without limit, it should be half done."

"But I was just lucky; it's actually not suitable for you."

Mo Yu shook his head. He realized after cultivating his soul core that he and Xiao Wu were different, and he couldn't just copy her.

For example, Xiao Wu's soul core is the release of the seal.

Since the seal has been broken, it means that Xiao Wu originally had a soul core, and she did not go through the process of liquefying soul power.

Mo Yu, however, needs this step. His soul core was also condensed into tiny cloud crystals with the help of spiritual herbs. It was a big problem to condense it into a solid form. He himself did not know how to teach Ma Hongjun.

The reason he mentioned the inner core and the soul core was so that Xiao Wu could boldly share her thoughts (actually, her methods) with him in the future.

"This won't work, that won't work, what should we do?"

Ma Hongjun was both annoyed and delighted. He was annoyed that no method worked, but delighted that he could continue to be lazy and find women.

He doesn't want to leave his comfort zone.

However, Mo Yu shook his head with a smile: "Who said there's no way? Isn't this the last resort?"
