Douluo Continent: On Becoming a God Through Science

Chapter 25 Bibi Dong (Part 1)

"A head spirit bone whose importance and rarity are second only to external spirit bones and torso bones!? And my teacher is going to give it to me!?"

Yan was greatly shocked upon hearing only the first proposal.

"Teacher, this is too precious! You mustn't accept it!"

Yan was shocked and looked around anxiously, worried that the news would be overheard by outsiders.

Even a Title Douluo would covet a head soul bone of ten thousand years!

As Yan was shocked, a question quietly arose within him: 'Where did Teacher's head spirit bone come from? Could it be from the spirit beast he absorbed when he had his fourth ring? If so, why didn't he absorb it himself? Everyone knows that spirit rings and spirit bones originate from the same source, and they have additional enhancements! Surely he doesn't look down on ten-thousand-year-level spirit bones!?'

"Don't get excited yet."

You Chen maintained his indifferent tone: "This soul bone isn't a good match for you. Even if you absorb it, it won't improve your martial soul's origin. Considering your future, even if it's a ten-thousand-year soul bone, I don't recommend you absorb it. But you know how rare soul bones are, especially rare ones like head soul bones. Who knows, even when you become a Title Douluo, you might not have a head soul bone. And even though it's not a perfect match, this soul bone can still bring you a significant improvement. So it has its advantages and disadvantages."

According to You Chen's theory, it is not advisable to absorb soul bones before the third ring, but Yan is already a Soul Master, so naturally there is no such problem.

For Soul Masters and Soul Sect Masters, absorbing one or two Soul Bones is far more beneficial than harmful.

"Let me tell you my second plan."

Looking at Yan, who had quieted down, You Chen continued, "I won't give you anything for this second option. You need to apply for someone to go to Death Valley for training. Through the pressure brought by the danger of this extreme environment, your mental will will be sublimated, thereby breaking through to the Spirit Sea Realm."

Yan replied almost without hesitation, "Teacher, I choose the second one."

But You Chen saw through Yan's true thoughts at a glance and said, "Don't worry about saving me money by choosing the second option. It's only natural that Old Deng gives Little Deng gold coins, and you don't need to feel ashamed about it. This is a decision that involves your future. When I'm really leaving, I'll come to find you again, and you can tell me your answer then. Remember, don't make a decision and then recklessly go into Death Valley! Whatever decision you make, you must meet me! You are my disciple, You Chen's disciple! If others know that the disciple of a theoretical master is so impulsive, I'll lose all face!"

Sensing the teacher's concern, Yan lowered his head silently and said in a deep voice, "I understand."

……

"Really? Nana went to cause trouble for that person again today? I see."

Inside the Papal Palace, a stunningly beautiful woman in a magnificent robe sat high on her throne, listening to reports from her subordinates.

She wore a nine-curved purple-gold crown and had a jeweled scepter lying beside her. She leaned lazily against the armrest of the throne, her wide sleeves hanging down naturally, revealing a section of her snow-white arm. In a fleeting glance, her smooth skin looked as white and tender as if it had been coated with whipped cream, making one's mouth water.

This is a beauty that can only be achieved by infusing the most expensive and rare resources; every inch of skin and every hair symbolizes the flowing away of gold coins.

Even if ordinary people are born beautiful and have naturally stunning looks and figures, upon closer inspection, flaws will always be found, making it difficult to match the sweetness that money brings.

However, the woman's demeanor was so elegant and noble that, beneath the papal robes, she exuded a sense of holiness, making one marvel at her beauty while daring not to harbor the slightest thought of offense.

Such a stunningly beautiful woman could only be Her Majesty the Pope, Bibidon.

(Bibi Dong.jpg)

As pope, Bibidon displayed an extremely strong desire for power, wanting to oversee all major affairs, which naturally led to her daily behind-the-scenes rule.

Of course, we all know that her lust for power is only on the surface; what truly lies beneath is a twisted impulse of despair and a yearning for revenge.

On this day, she listened to the reports presented by her aides as usual, but her expression changed noticeably when she heard about matters related to her personally taught disciples.

However, this fluctuation was not actually caused by Hu Liena, but by "that person" involved in Hu Liena's actions.

Although Bibi Dong herself was unwilling to admit it, her feelings towards You Chen were actually very complicated.

Even if she admired Yu Xiaogang highly, she had to admit You Chen's talent.

Especially after she saw You Chen's "final work," a magnum opus titled "The Essence of Martial Souls," which he had published shortly before she took power, she was instantly amazed.

Even if we go back another ten thousand years in the history of Douluo Continent, we still won't find a genius who surpasses You Chen in theoretical knowledge.

That was the first thought that naturally came to Bibi Dong after she finished reading the whole book.

As for going further back? Ah, there are no clear and specific records beyond that.

Even though Bibi Dong thought to herself that You Chen's achievements were largely due to standing on the shoulders of his predecessors, she could not erase You Chen's own abilities and contributions.

As for comparing Yu Xiaogang and You Chen?

In the original story, Bibi Dong might have been able to deceive herself because there were no outstanding theoretical masters in her time. Yu Xiaogang, after all, had read extensively from the books of her family and the Spirit Hall, and dared to publish their contents directly, so she might have gained some reputation among some ordinary spirit masters who were unaware of the truth.

However, in terms of theoretical achievements, Yu Xiaogang is completely outclassed by You Chen in any aspect.

You Chen has a significant gap in his theoretical knowledge.

Just like Lü Bu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he was a warrior in a class of his own. Any warrior who could fight him and survive was worthy of praise.

This is roughly the status of You Chen in the theoretical field. When he publishes a paper, any scholar whose references are cited will feel honored.

The title of "Master" that Bibi Dong once bestowed upon Yu Xiaogang has now become a complete humiliation.

Of course, Bibi Dong would not think that Yu Xiaogang's wisdom and talent were inferior to You Chen's.

She would only think that Yu Xiaogang was a talented person who was not recognized because he had lost the platform to show his abilities and had not yet had the chance to discover and publish his groundbreaking theories.

In short—the future is promising.

This is not because Bibi Dong was stupid.

In fact, Bibi Dong's ability to control the Spirit Hall and further expand its power has already proven her competence and wisdom.

But compared to Bibi Dong, Yu Xiaogang was like a ray of white moonlight trapped in an abyss.

To reveal in one's own heart that Yu Xiaogang is nothing but a fraudulent charlatan who deceives people's feelings is like:

After being numbed by society, feeling that the world is dark and the future is hopeless, you can only find solace in recalling your dream lover from your student days—a girl who was academically excellent, pure, beautiful, gentle, and kind.

One day, you suddenly feel a sudden urge to go back to your hometown, hoping that you might bump into that figure you've been longing for in a coffee shop on the street corner.

Then you actually bumped into her, but before you could excitedly call out her name, you realized she didn't recognize you at all. She just flashed a smile that vaguely resembled her stunning beauty from back then, but it was filled with obsequious worldliness...

They tell you, "500 per time. Add 500 and you can get it without the circle."

That would be another kind of cataclysmic event.

Betrayed by her teacher and losing her virginity, coupled with the influence of the Rakshasa God's power, Bibi Dong has become a madwoman in a gorgeous guise.

Without Yu Xiaogang as an anchor, she would have been even more extreme.

People don't willingly push themselves into despair.

This world is already a hellish place for Bibi Dong. Only revenge and Yu Xiaogang are the driving forces that keep her alive. How could she easily give up either of them?

Therefore, she doesn't want to think about the negative aspects of her anus, preferring to immerse herself in the illusory and beautiful memories of the past.

As the saying goes, the true white moonlight is something that even he himself could never compare to.
