Chapter 278 Metal Ascension: Laughing at the Mortal World!
"Laugh, I heard from Meng that you created an incredible soul tool?"

"Yes, that's right, Grandpa. This is a brand new path for soul tools that I have found. However, it is currently only suitable for the Three-Legged Golden Toad Martial Soul of our Hongchen family. They are all custom-made."

Nodding, Xiao Hongchen packed her things and was about to leave when she bumped into Meng Hongchen, who had brought Jing Hongchen along.

He kept smiling.

If his genius in the past was merely a feeling that he had broken the Ming Dynasty's record of hundreds of years, then now, having made history, his genius aura arises spontaneously, and a confidence and spirit from the bottom of his heart makes Jing Hongchen feel that he is shining.

He was very curious: what kind of masterpiece could have caused such a dramatic change in Xiao Hongchen in just a few months?
According to his granddaughter Meng Hongchen, he seems to have created a special humanoid soul tool?

That might be truly remarkable, after all, humanoid soul tools are still in an experimental stage and it will take at least some time before they can be put into initial use.

It should be noted that those involved in the development of humanoid soul tools are at least level eight soul masters, but what about his grandson Xiao Hongchen? He's only level seven. If he really manages to develop a humanoid soul tool on his own, he will no longer be just an ordinary genius, but a figure who would be worthy of being described in history!

"Alright, as soon as I heard Meng's words, I arranged for two Soul Douluos to go to the test site. Let's go, let Grandpa see how powerful you are."

“You won’t be disappointed.”

With a smile, Xiao Hongchen nodded to Jing Hongchen, and then the three of them headed towards the academy's soul tool testing grounds.

Because the test subjects were at least level seven soul tools, the test site had been cleared by Jing Hongchen in advance to prevent the powerful soul tools from affecting the weak and fragile soul tool masters.

When they arrived, two ready-to-go Contras were already waiting for them.

Without going through too much trouble, the experiment proceeded smoothly under Jing Hongchen's instructions. He first led Meng Hongchen to stand in the distance to observe.

Inside the arena, Xiao Hongchen and the two Soul Douluos gazed at each other from a distance of a hundred meters.

"You can begin now, Xiao. Grandpa will be there to help if there are any problems."

"it is good."

After responding, Xiao Hongchen watched as the two Soul Douluos opposite him slowly activated their Martial Souls, while simultaneously speaking to Jing Hongchen, who was not far away, providing explanations:

"Soul tools are not simply soulless weapons. We have been conducting the same experiments with stronger, harder, and more soul-conducting metals all along. No matter how advanced they are, they cannot escape the fact that they are always stuck in the same place."

But! I succeeded! I found a way to elevate soul tools from weapons into power, a way to give them souls, so they would become stronger, capable of surpassing the limits of any so-called level!

Seven soul rings, yellow, purple, black, and black, rose from beneath his feet, and the three-legged golden toad martial soul appeared as a phantom behind Xiao Hongchen.

Then, with a flash of silver light, six metal humanoid parts flew out from the six storage soul tools on Xiao Hongchen's body.

The spirit rings flashed, and the spirit skill was activated.

First Soul Skill: Metal Control!
Fifth Soul Skill: Golden Favor!
Two powerful soul skills flashed, and six metal parts surrounded Xiao Hongchen. He himself became completely metallic, stretching his body like molten metal and connecting with the six metal parts.

Third Soul Skill: Metal Condensation!
Sixth Soul Skill: Gold's Subordinate!
"This is..." From afar, Jing Hongchen opened his eyes wide, his eyes filled with disbelief and disbelief. What did he see?
He's laughing, merging himself with the soul tool!?

Why did he do this? What is he trying to do?
In the arena, Xiao Hongchen was seen using his four soul skills to completely fuse with the six metal humanoid parts, transforming into a single entity that stood on the test field.

The face of Xiao Hongchen began to be outlined on the six-meter-tall metal humanoid, and then the entire metal humanoid began to be subtly shaped along with the molten metal.

Second Soul Skill: Boiling Gold!
Fourth Soul Skill: Sacrifice of Gold!
The surging soul power acted like a sluice gate being opened, causing the soul guidance inscriptions on the entire metal humanoid to shine brightly. At the same time, Xiao Hongchen's voice was cold and ruthless, resonating throughout the entire arena like heavy metal:

"At this moment, I transform myself into a metallic soul, endowing it with complete spirituality."

At this moment, I merge my flesh with the metal, transforming it into power and myself.

Seventh Soul Skill - Martial Soul True Body!
The seven beams of light, the Soul Rings of Amnesty, were nested on the more than six-meter-tall metal humanoid. A huge golden toad phantom descended, then transformed into a sky full of liquid metal, merging entirely into the metal humanoid.

Eight meters... ten meters... twelve meters, all the way up to a full fourteen meters!
A colossal humanoid mech stands on the ground, composed entirely of metal. Its imposing weight clearly showcases the allure of metal, while the sharply defined parts, like armor, accentuate the coldness of the metal.

"Flesh and blood are weak and feeble, while metal soars to the heavens!"

The cold metallic sound resonated, and Xiao Hongchen was completely integrated with the metal body at this moment; he was it, and it was him.

At the same time, this entire metal body underwent an instant sublimation under the influence of a complete human soul, leaping from ordinary metal to the level of spiritual metal!

Xiao Hongchen's current aura even stirred a slight tremor in Jing Hongchen's heart.

My grandson can now... hurt me?
How is this possible?! What exactly did he realize?!
So imposing, so towering, so... awe-inspiring!

"The battle can begin."

Xiao Hongchen's cold, metallic voice rang out as he raised his left hand, preparing to strike at the two Soul Douluos in front of him.

He felt great. Not only was he incredibly calm, but he was also experiencing a genuine power within his body—a pure power that he had never felt before, no matter how many soul-guided cannons he used!

Looking at the two Soul Douluos standing ready ahead, he was utterly confident:
"Don't hold back, activate your Martial Soul True Form, otherwise... you will suffer a very bad defeat."

"Martial Soul True Form!" x2
On the other side, the two Soul Douluos did not hesitate and activated their Martial Soul True Forms, each transforming into a white giant wolf and a cyclops, charging towards Xiao Hongchen's metallic body.

Xiao Hongchen made no comment, simply raising his fists indifferently to meet the attack.

Boom——!
A loud crash rang out, but the result was... a draw!
Xiao Hongchen's metallic body casually blocked the two's probing attacks.

But that wasn't enough. After the initial probing, even more ferocious soul skills continued to strike Xiao Hongchen, along with all sorts of soul tools.

You must understand, they are Soul Masters specifically created to use Soul Tools! Soul Tools are their true power as Soul Douluos!
