Douluo Continent: The Ice Dragon King Martial Soul, Ma Xiaotao is Addicted

early morning.

The constant soul-guiding light in the laboratory appeared exceptionally cold.

A powerful and vast energy fluctuation suddenly erupted in the independent laboratory where Xianlin'er was located.

This fluctuation is not aggressive, but rather an energy fluctuation generated when countless precise energy circuits are perfectly closed and produce coordinated resonance.

This terrifying power was like a sleeping beast awakening, instantly startling Ye Chen, who was studying a level seven core magic array on the other side.

Ye Chen suddenly looked up, his gaze instantly piercing through layers of obstacles and landing on Xian Lin'er's laboratory.

A metal sphere appeared in front of Xianlin'er.

The sphere is about the size of a basketball, with a deep silver-gray metallic luster and its surface covered with countless complex and dazzling soul-guiding patterns.

These patterns are not chaotic, but rather nested, interwoven, and cyclical in an extremely precise geometric structure, forming a perfect energy circuit.

Ye Chen's vision penetrated to the core, which was a fist-sized core array radiating a blazing bluish-white light. It looked as if it were formed from concentrated flames and storms, quietly floating at the very center. It was the absolute core of the entire system and the surging source of energy.

Ye Chen recognized it at a glance—this was the level nine core magic array that Xian Lin'er had been researching for several years!
Core arrays at level seven and above begin to undergo a qualitative change. They are no longer simply mechanical creations, but rather possess a trace of "activity," capable of autonomously absorbing and storing a portion of soul power to quickly activate the entire soul tool.

Surrounding it are dozens of smaller auxiliary magic array modules, layered upon each other.

Even the lowest-level auxiliary magic arrays are at the seventh level. They act as loyal guards, protecting the central ninth-level core, each performing its own function.

Some are responsible for accelerating the transmission of violent energy, some for stabilizing the core's energy flow to prevent it from going out of control, some for guiding and locking onto targets, and some for the crucial tasks of heat dissipation and protection.

All the magic array modules were flashing with a steady light, which complemented the bluish-white incandescent light of the central core magic array, creating a spectacular scene full of futuristic technology.

The entire magic circle sphere emitted a vast and stable energy fluctuation, and the invisible force field caused the surrounding air to distort slightly.

Although Ye Chen had seen many level-nine core formations and their blueprints and details in the 'Myriad Phenomena Catalogue', this was the first time he had seen the actual object.

Ye Chen withdrew his gaze and walked towards Xian Lin'er's laboratory.

Xian Lin'er's laboratory is transparent. As soon as Ye Chen arrived, Xian Lin'er noticed him and took the initiative to open the shielded door of the laboratory.

"Teacher, you succeeded?!"

Ye Chen strode in, feeling happy for Xian Lin'er.

Upon hearing the sound, Xian Lin'er turned her head, her face beaming with an unprecedentedly radiant smile.

"Xiao Chen, I did it! I've finally created the level nine core magic array!"

Xian Lin'er carefully extended her hand, and a gentle cyan soul force enveloped the basketball-sized core magic array, holding it steadily in her palm.

"Is this the final form of a level nine soul guide core?"

Ye Chen approached and examined it closely, feeling the immense heat and precise soul-guiding fluctuations emanating from the array at close range, and sincerely exclaimed in admiration.

This is more intuitive and awe-inspiring than any drawing in the Universal Catalogue.

"The core magic array is the soul of the soul tool, but it needs a powerful body to truly unleash its power."

Xian Lin'er's eyes sparkled with anticipation, her tone carrying a hint of mystery and pride, "Let's go, teacher will take you to see the complete form of the level nine soul tool."

After Xianlin'er finished speaking, she picked up the sphere and turned to walk towards the innermost wall of the laboratory.

The wall looks smooth and seamless, just like anywhere else.

Xian Lin'er stretched out her free hand and seemingly casually pressed a few spots on the wall, while simultaneously injecting a stream of pure cyan soul power into it.

A crack silently appeared in the wall, which then slid open to both sides, revealing a hidden large room.

The room is about 60 square meters.

As the two stepped inside, the powerful soul-guiding lamps on the ceiling instantly lit up, illuminating the entire space as bright as day.

In the center of the space, a colossal object stood silently, instantly capturing Ye Chen's entire attention! It was a cyan cannon!

A soul-guided cannon of unimaginable size!

The length of the cannon is estimated to be more than ten meters, with overall lines that are both rigid and smooth, exuding a sense of power.

The main body is cast from a special, thick, and deep alloy, shimmering with a dark blue metallic luster.

The cannon barrel is straight and long, with an astonishing muzzle diameter of 130 centimeters!
With such a huge caliber, it seems capable of swallowing up any target.

The gun barrel features large energy pipe interfaces and thick armor plates, exuding a powerful sense of industrial aesthetics.

Below the cannon is a robust support base with a complex shock-absorbing and guiding structure.

The base is firmly fixed to a huge alloy plate on the ground, possessing astonishing mass.

Ye Chen estimated that there were at least hundreds of tons.

It can be described as both big and powerful!

Its power is absolutely terrifying!
"This is... the main body of a level nine soul tool?"

Ye Chen's voice carried a hint of shock.

This was completely different from the portable soul tool he had imagined; it was full of pure violent aesthetics.

"That's right!"

Xianlin'er's voice was full of pride as she walked to the giant cannon and gently stroked its cold barrel as if it were her beloved child.

"I call it—'Azure Dragon Sky-Splitting Cannon'!"

"I spent three whole years designing, collecting materials, forging, polishing and engraving this shell."

"Its main frame is made of a mixture of sunken iron from the deep sea at a depth of 10,000 meters and 'star steel' specially supplied to the Xingluo royal family, supplemented by a variety of rare energy-conducting metals."

"Theoretically, its defensive strength can withstand the full force of a Limit Douluo without collapsing, and it can unleash hundreds of attacks in a short period of time."

"Unfortunately, since this is the first attempt, in order to ensure the success rate and maximize the power, we have to sacrifice size and weight."

Xian Lin'er's tone turned slightly helpless as she finished speaking.

Soul tools are not necessarily better the bigger they are, because if they are too big, it means that they are extremely difficult to move, and carrying and using them is extremely inconvenient.

However, there is nothing we can do about it.

This is her debut work, and it's already quite an achievement that it was even made. Naturally, she didn't consider aspects like size.

"Teacher, you are already very amazing. Even if this giant cannon is ten times larger, it is still a true level nine soul tool, and the first level nine soul tool of the three great empires of Douluo Continent!"

Ye Chen spoke earnestly.

This is like Ye Chen's first computer in his previous life—huge, but a revolutionary advancement!

Once a start is made, with continuous technological iterations, even more sophisticated level-nine soul tools will surely be created.

Ye Chen's Myriad Manifestations Catalogue contains a large number of level nine soul tools.

However, each of them is a near-perfect soul tool, which is extremely difficult to make and the materials are extremely scarce.

Before Xian Lin'er became a level nine Soul Master, Ye Chen did not take it out, so as not to affect Xian Lin'er or cause her to be discouraged.

Now that Xian Lin'er has become a level nine Soul Master, Ye Chen could consider finding an opportunity to reveal some information about her.

Even if Xianlin'er cannot create it, she can still gain inspiration from it, which will allow her to quickly reach the peak on the path of a level nine soul master.
