Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect - Sharingan Intercepts Tianmeng

Chapter 45, Day 45: Dream Brother, you just watch from the sidelines. Come on, Hyotei, open your mouth, I'll give you something good to eat.

Hyotei looked at Xiao Qiang and nodded. "Okay, what do you want to say?"

"Hyotei, you're right. It's true that I would have a hard time becoming a god with my superhuman mental strength alone, but what I relied on was never my mental strength."

As Xiao Qiang spoke, he released his Sharingan. "When I first awakened my martial soul, my mental strength was just like that of an ordinary mental-type soul master. Mental strength has never been my main reliance. My martial soul is. The Sharingan's martial soul is not inherently strong. Its initial soul power level is only level five. However, it has a special ability that allows me to occasionally see things that are beneficial to me."

"I am a citizen of the Sun Moon Empire. Normally, given the distance between me and the Star Dou Great Forest, I would never have any contact with Brother Tianmeng in my entire life. However, after I awakened the Sharingan, even with just one tomoe, I was already able to see things that were to my advantage."

"Following the guidance of my Sharingan, I arrived at the Star Dou Great Forest when I was fourteen years old. That day, I met Brother Tianmeng. It was a part of Brother Tianmeng's spirit that gave me a powerful spiritual force far exceeding that of other spirit-type soul masters of the same level. And now Brother Tianmeng has brought me here to find you."

Hyotei frowned, seemingly not entirely trusting Xiao Qiang's words. "You mean you can see destiny?"

"The fact that Brother Tianmeng could live to the level of a million years as a member of the Ice Silkworm Clan is due to his powerful luck. The fact that I was able to meet Brother Tianmeng when he needed to become someone else's soul ring, and that Brother Tianmeng was able to find me in his weakest state, is also due to Brother Tianmeng's luck. It is also the guidance that my Sharingan gave me. Perhaps my luck is not very strong, and my Sharingan can only help me find very good luck, but there are some things that I can see."

"There are some things I can't explain right now, but given the rate at which your luck is waning, Hyotei's lifespan should only be around a hundred years left."

"What! Bingbing only has about a hundred years to live? No! Bingbing, don't die!" Tianmeng clung to Bingdi's leg, but Bingdi flicked her tail and sent Tianmeng flying without even glancing at her.

Hyotei turned his gaze to Xiao Qiang. "Continue."

"Once you join this god-making project, you should know that we are guaranteed to be at least Super Douluo level, with a lifespan of over three hundred years. This is a highly certain future."

"There are some things I can't prove yet, but I do know that there is something that can extend my lifespan to the thousand-year level, and another opportunity that I can't quite explain yet. Those are the resources and safety net for the God-Making Project."

"If the God-Making Plan succeeds, we will all be overjoyed and gain eternal life. If it fails, even if you don't believe I have a way to let us live for more than a thousand years, a minimum lifespan of three hundred years is guaranteed."

Hyotei's silence didn't last long. "Alright, since you can see my remaining lifespan, I'll trust you this once. I'll join Tenmu's god-making plan."

"Ah! Bingbing, you really are..."

"roll!"

Just as Tianmeng was about to take the opportunity to hug Bingdi, Bingdi slapped her away with her tail.

"Waaah... Bingbing..."

Hyotei ignored Tenmu as usual and turned his gaze to Xiao Qiang once again.

"Tianmeng's plan is quite good, but it still has some flaws. My power is too great for you, so I've decided to prioritize the bone over the ring. You probably won't get a stronger soul bone than me in the future, so I've decided to become your most important torso bone."

"Wait a minute, Hyotei. I told you I can see some things about destiny. A 400,000-year-old skeleton is not the best choice for me. Please believe me, I will not joke about my own future."

Hyotei glanced at Xiao Qiang in surprise. When Xiao Qiang mentioned her lifespan before, she had begun to believe that he could see some aspects of fate. Now it seemed that what Xiao Qiang said before might have been true.

"Okay, then which realm's soul bone do you think would be best for me to become?"

Xiao Qiang raised his right arm. "Right arm, the external soul bone attached to the right arm and right hand."

Soul bones and external soul bones were given to Huo Yuhao by Ice Emperor in the original novel of Douluo Continent II. However, at that time, only the torso bone had soul skills, and the two external soul bones connected to the torso seemed to have no other function except to increase physical attributes.

With the precedent in the original work, Xiao Qiang was no longer worried that Bingdi would not be able to make two soul bones. Compared to the two soul bones without soul skills that Bingdi gave Huo Yuhao in the original work, the soul bone in the palm area is more likely to have soul skills.

"The two soul bones in your right hand and palm are fine, but..." Ice Emperor looked at Xiao Qiang with concern. "If it's just one hand, your physical condition isn't strong enough to support my soul ring."

"What if you have two hands? The soul bones of both hands and the external soul bones?" Xiao Qiang asked.

He wasn't without reason. In the original Douluo Continent novel, Bibi Dong's legs came from a 100,000-year-old soul beast. This 100,000-year-old soul beast gave Bibi Dong two soul bones, which could almost be considered as repaying a debt of gratitude.

A soul beast can drop two soul bones. This setting was not removed by the author in the second, third, and subsequent books, so Xiao Qiang was relatively reassured about it.

With this precedent, it's reasonable that the Ice Emperor, with his 400,000-year cultivation level, wouldn't be able to create two soul bones and two external soul bones.

Hyotei pondered for a moment. "It's possible, but your willpower probably can't withstand it. Absorbing one soul bone is excruciatingly painful, and absorbing another soul bone is even more so. Your consciousness will likely collapse first, and then we're all finished."

"If that's the case, don't worry. It's impossible for my consciousness to collapse. I have my own methods. I could sense this kind of pain that would obviously kill me before, so I was prepared for it."

"Your preparations can solve the excruciating pain?" Hyotei asked, completely bewildered.

"Of course, Brother Tianmeng gave me four soul skills: mental detection, mental sharing, mental interference, and soul impact."

"Over the past six months, I have carefully studied mental interference. Pain itself is just a mental signal transmitted to the brain. As long as mental interference is used, the problem of pain can be solved."

Hyotei: "..."

"Well, it seems Tianmeng isn't entirely useless after all."

"Waaah... Bingbing praised me, I'm so happy!"

"Shut up!"

"Since you've found a way to overcome the pain, there shouldn't be any other problems. So..."

Just as Hyotei was about to inject the soul bone into Xiao Qiang's body, Xiao Qiang interrupted her.

"Wait a minute, Tianmeng-ge, come and check if the surrounding situation is okay. Before fusing the soul bone, Bingdi, you eat this first."
