Douluo Continent: On Becoming a God Through Science

Chapter 72 Soul Saint-level combat power?

It was precisely because he acquired characteristics similar to Yan's Flame Lord that You Chen was able to so easily control and optimize the Self-Transformation Starlight Avatar after gaining a higher level of soul power control.

The realm that only Super Douluo can reach is one that Yan naturally mastered after awakening his Martial Soul... In a sense, it is not an exaggeration for You Chen to say that Yan had the ticket to becoming a strongman in advance.

Relying on "Fire and Rock Control", Yan has a unique advantage in controlling the power of his martial soul origin.

Of course, the essence of this special ability is not the same as "microscopic perception." They only exhibit similar effects.

In reality, they took different routes but achieved the same thing.

In other words, the two can be added together.

In any case, Douluo Continent is a world similar to a game. To describe it in a game-like way, "Microscopic Insight" and "Fire and Rock Control" are two different and non-conflicting terms, both of which have the effects of "Soul Power Control LV+1" and "Attribute Power Control LV+1".

Title Douluo who have mastered the "microscopic" level can basically create their own soul skills at will after spending a little time. When Yan's basic control over soul power reaches the "mastery" level, it is not difficult for him to do so.

In principle, it should be even simpler. Because under You Chen's tutelage, Yan's "mastery of martial soul origin" should at least reach the "entry-level" by then.

But the journey from "not yet an expert" to "a beginner" and then to "mastery" is clearly not the end.

Historically, the prodigy who defeated a top-tier defensive Soul King with a wooden sword at the Soul King stage was clearly more than that.

Relying on the superior effect brought by "seeing the origin", You Chen could vaguely sense that when his control over the power of origin reached the next level, he could use some deeper power to erupt his martial soul with potential far beyond the norm, like a volcanic eruption.

At that level, I reckon he could achieve what the Wooden Sword Soul King in history did.

That power must be... spirituality.

He saw the Stardust Dragon in that idealistic world, and saw a will that seemed to exist in the Stardust Dragon's eyes.

In the darkness, Youchen had a kind of realization, which was probably what is called "spiritual power".

Thus, the name of the next realm is about to emerge: "Spiritual Realm".

Beyond the Spirit Realm, are there other realms? At this moment, You Chen is far from reaching that point.

And from then on, the most important reward was finally the complete organization and digestion of the information.

He looked at the batch of pills that had reached the intermediate quality level.

Since even low-level pills could work for Grace, a Soul Master, with three low-level experience pills increasing her Soul Power level by one, then these mid-level experience pills should also be effective for her.

As expected, as soon as You Chen swallowed the intermediate-level experience pill, both the strength and total amount of his soul power surged.

"Hmm, it didn't directly increase my soul power by 1 level, but it probably increased by half a level? However, considering that the source of this reward is a one-ring soul master, it's already very good."

You Chen's eyes lit up.

Don't underestimate half a level of Soul King.

At this stage, even a genius, without special abilities or top-tier rare treasures like immortal herbs or soul bones, can only advance two levels in a year of normal cultivation. This is equivalent to saving about three months of cultivation time.

Moreover, this calculation only considers the growth rate of young people who are on the rise.

As one's vital energy declines, cultivation efficiency gradually decreases. For a normal Soul Master, after the age of 40, their cultivation speed is less than half of their peak. Consuming such an experience pill can directly save more than half a year of cultivation time.

If this stuff gets out, they'll fight tooth and nail for it.

However, for You Chen, who had undergone Martial Soul evolution and the Marrow Cleansing Technique, although he was approaching middle age at forty, the value of this experience pill naturally did not reach that level.

On the contrary, those auxiliary combat pills are quite effective.

If intermediate experience pills can be effective against Soul Kings, then intermediate strength pills and speed pills can also enhance You Chen's combat power.

"After further consolidation, I might be able to possess even a weaker Soul Saint combat power on my own!"

None of those who can become Soul Saints possess a Martial Soul quality below the advanced level.

You Chen is unlikely to gain much advantage in terms of the quality of his martial soul, and his opponent has seven spirit rings, not lacking the advantage of ten-thousand-year spirit rings.

Not to mention the Soul Saints' ultimate move, the Martial Soul True Body.

You Chen's only notable advantages are his "mental strength", "control over power", and "various strange and unpredictable methods".

Even though You Chen is already very strong and can definitely occupy a place among Soul Emperors, he is still not enough to compete with Soul Saints.

Even his strongest advantage, "mental power," could only weaken the Soul Saint to a certain extent, but could not establish a decisive advantage.

But things are different now. He actually has a real chance of defeating those Soul Saints who can awaken their Martial Soul True Body!

"In just over a month, my combat power has skyrocketed from matching a Soul King to being comparable to a Soul Saint?"

Even a wanderer like me felt a surge of emotion.

"call……"

With a long sigh of relief, You Chen quickly regained control of his emotions thanks to his extremely strong mental fortitude.

He told himself that this little ability was nothing compared to the worst-case scenario he would face in the future, and it was nothing to be proud of.

On the other side...

The timeline has been moved slightly forward.

Tang San, who was in Yu Xiaogang's room, faced Yu Xiaogang with an angry expression.

"Teacher, those people from the Spirit Hall dared to be so disrespectful to you, why don't we confront them?"

Around noon, Tang San regained consciousness shortly after being knocked unconscious by You Chen, thanks to his naturally circulating Xuan Tian Power.

Although he really wanted to get revenge on Yusei and demand an explanation for Yusei's inexplicable attack on a large number of innocent bystanders, he first transported his roommates back to the dormitory one by one.

Then he discovered that Yusei was not in the dormitory. According to the information he had gathered, if Yusei was not in the dormitory, he was usually at the residence of his teacher, Yu Chen, receiving guidance and training.

Tang San had some experience with this, after all, Yu Xiaogang had already begun to guide him.

Therefore, he knew very well that it would be more convenient to visit Yusei after he reappeared in the dormitory.

After that, he went to the local Spirit Hall to complete the registration work that Yu Xiaogang had instructed him to do.

Coincidentally, he encountered Su Yuntao again, who had helped him awaken his martial soul. Even though Su Yuntao didn't acknowledge his talent at the time, Tang San recognized his gratitude for Su Yuntao's help. Moreover, without Su Yuntao's help, he wouldn't have met such an excellent teacher as Yu Xiaogang! He was filled with gratitude for this.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while.

Up to this point, everything has gone very smoothly and perfectly.

However, just as he completed his registration and was about to leave the Spirit Hall, Su Yuntao stopped him.

"Tang San, if the rumors I've heard are true, you've become Yu Xiaogang's disciple, haven't you?"

It is worth mentioning that Su Yuntao was the white-robed steward who received You Chen that day.
