Douluo: Dream Overlord

Chapter 159 Searching for Support-Type Soul Beasts 4

Mentioning these new types of martial spirits, one can't help but feel a bit helpless.

The origins of these martial spirits in Douluo Continent are very mysterious. No one knows when these martial spirits started, or when some were born, with new martial spirits constantly emerging.

From the initial common martial spirits like sickles and brooms, to special martial spirits with attributes, and finally to mythical martial spirits like the phoenix, full of legendary color —

It's as if this world can be gigantic, and the things that exist between people, or the creation of an unprecedented martial spirit, make people feel very magical.

Shi Guang couldn't help but wonder if it was possible that the characteristics of a martial soul were realized by the convergence of everyone's ideas.

He pondered, after all, the origin of martial spirits in Douluo Continent has never been mentioned by anyone, not even the original author, who did not provide a detailed explanation. It seems to be more like a power system that exists in this world itself.

However, the existence of martial spirits is obviously not without reason or cause; it must have been born out of some accident or possibility.

What time will do is to uncover these things in the future, since this is also an unsolved matter for readers.

If we can solve this problem, it will be a way to fulfill a small regret from my past life.

Time is somewhat regrettable, indicating that if he had two identical high-level martial souls like Bibi Dong, he would have had an even smoother path in life.

After all, the two martial souls don't repel each other, meaning they can accommodate each other and switch at any time. Unlike a gem martial soul, which is a spirit martial soul, switching between them in battle requires consuming both soul power and mental power. Not only that, but it also takes some time, far less fast and convenient than instantly switching martial souls.

Similarly, the characteristics of twin martial souls are also present in two similar martial souls. Undoubtedly, whether it is the advantage in battle or the progress of cultivation in life, it will be far superior to other soul masters.

As you can see, Bibi Dong reached the level of a Title Douluo in just a few years in the original novel.

While his anger and the Devourer, Thousand Blade Swiftness, played a part, this also indirectly proves that Bibi Dong's talent was originally very strong, and with just a little effort, she could reach a level that ordinary Soul Masters wouldn't even dare to dream of.

Even Shi Guang was somewhat envious of Bibi Dong's talent.

Unlike him and Tang San, who relied on external advantages as natives, Bi Dong reached the Title Douluo level entirely through his own talent and hard work. The sweat and hardship he endured are self-evident.

In the Douluo Continent, Soul Masters don't compare strength or effort; they judge each other by talent.

A powerful talent is what truly makes someone strong. Even without ambition and a good mindset, as long as one has talent, one can still become a Title Douluo. However, whether one's combat strength is truly formidable remains to be seen.

Shi Guang once heard his father say that there was a Soul Master in the history of Douluo who, although very strong, lacked mental fortitude and could only rely on his talent to fight.

His strength was indeed formidable, but because he dared not fight to the death with others, he could only unleash a portion of his power, resulting in him being suppressed and beaten by Soul Masters whose cultivation levels were much lower than his own.

This is a lack of mental fortitude. As a strong individual, without a strong mindset, a grasp of the situation, and an understanding of the enemy, one cannot be considered a powerful Soul Master.

Truly powerful Soul Masters possess an unwavering mindset, the perseverance to cultivate consistently, and most importantly, the ability to know themselves and their enemy, thus ensuring victory in every battle.

True Soul Masters will know their own strengths and weaknesses in advance so that they can analyze the situation more easily or make their move more convenient, rather than being hit by the opponent's unknown Soul Skill in a head-on confrontation and suffering losses.

Shi Guang believes that while talent and strength are important in Douluo Continent, what is even more important is the mutual understanding of the martial souls between soul masters, as well as the vigilance against each other's martial souls.

After all, there is no shortage of geniuses in Douluo Continent. Their martial souls are combined into systems based on their own wisdom, possessing unique soul skills and special effects, which can easily cause others to capsize in the gutter.

Even with the passage of time, it was only through his own talent and his father's guidance that he managed to embark on a completely new path.

That is the path of the spiritual.

Regarding the release and use of spiritual power, Time has been resting and gradually understanding the path it is about to take through the self-strengthening of spiritual power.

That is to use mental power to interfere with Soul Masters, thereby manipulating them to establish their own Soul Master empire.

This idea coincided with Shiguang's personality; he liked to control others but disliked being controlled by them. In other words, he lacked a sense of security and had a strong desire for control.

Regarding the extension and use of mental power, it tends more towards controlling others and taking control of the battle situation.

Both his soul skills and martial soul characteristics indicate that he is heading down the path of controlling others, which corresponds to his personality, which is full of controlling desires.

Shi Guang couldn't help but feel a little emotional. To be honest, this martial soul was quite fitting. His personality was the same, full of a desire for control, and he also had quite a few special abilities.

Currently, Shi Guang can manipulate several Soul Masters weaker than himself using his mental power, but he can only hypnotize them to a certain degree of infiltration. He will need to wait until Shi Guang's realm becomes more powerful to achieve a deeper and more significant enhancement of his impressions and changes in their perceptions.

Furthermore, its martial spirit characteristics have not yet been tested.

Shi Guang pondered that, as a Dream Martial Soul, his martial soul possessed the special ability to bring others into their dreams.

This ability is extremely powerful, and it has already reached a point where it is comparable to the dream realm that was never seen before in the Douluo Continent. In the original world, no one could ever master the power of dreams; most people could only borrow it.

Just like in the God Test in Douluo Continent I, Poseidon, the sea cucumber, used his divine power to interfere with Qian Renxue's test. This is more like using divine power to change the place where the other party exists in a kind of illusionary world, forcibly changing the surrounding things with his own great power.

Shi Guang couldn't help but feel a little envious. When his mental strength reached that level, he wouldn't be far from achieving the self-created godhood.

In fact, Shi Guang doesn't intend to adopt someone else's position. He prefers to create his own godhood. After all, in the fanfiction of Douluo Continent, many protagonists create their own godhood based on their own talents, rather than inheriting others'.

Although Shi Guang knew that reality was reality and not as simple as imagined, inheriting a godhood was the most convenient and reliable way to increase strength, and it had no side effects or drawbacks.
