Douluo Continent: This Soul Master is Too Bizarre and Unpredictable

Chapter 106 Ice Flame Battle Armor

An hour later, three sets of magnificent armor were freshly forged on the forging table.

Each of the three sets of armor consists of seventeen parts: helmet, breastplate, left shoulder armor, right shoulder armor, left upper arm armor, right upper arm armor, left forearm armor, right forearm armor, left gauntlet, right gauntlet, waist guard, left thigh armor, right thigh armor, left calf armor, right calf armor, left boots, and right boots.

Well, no wings. Mu Yang knew that battle armor of the first rank or higher existed in later generations, but he didn't know how to make them, so he could only ignore them for the time being.

As for the helmet that should have been a headband? The method he deduced for making the one-word battle armor wasn't that advanced, so he only produced a slightly bulky helmet.

Two of the armors exuded a chilling aura and were made entirely of Spirit Forged Cold Heart Iron, giving them an icy blue color. The difference was that one of the armors was covered with phoenix feather patterns, especially the front of the breastplate, which featured a lifelike ice phoenix pattern.

The other set is covered with flame patterns, and the pattern in the center of the breastplate has become a phantom human figure.

The final set of armor was made entirely of Spirit Forged Blue Copper, giving it a deep blue color. It was covered with wave patterns, and in the center of the breastplate was an exceptionally cute dolphin pattern.

"Bing'er, Yue'er, try them on first and see if they fit. If they don't fit, we can still alter them."

After saying something to the two sisters, Mu Yang reached out and placed his hand on the armor that was connected to his bloodline, and absorbed it into his body.

The current battle armor lacks a soul guidance array and is not yet fully formed. Making minor adjustments to the size is simple, but if a soul guidance array is inscribed on it, changing the size becomes more troublesome. It is necessary to wear it beforehand to see if it fits.

Upon hearing this, Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er nodded slightly and, following suit, put their own armor into their bodies.

The next moment, a blue light flashed on the three of them, and they instantly donned spirit-forged metal armor. Except for a few small areas on their faces, their entire bodies were protected by the armor.

"It fits well, and I can handle its weight of just over 100 pounds."

After moving around a bit, Shuiyue nodded in satisfaction and gave it a good review.

"Muyang, you don't seem to have measured Yue'er's body size before, have you?"

At this moment, Shui Bing'er asked Mu Yang with some confusion.

She had taken her measurements, but Yue'er hadn't. As a result, both of their armors fit them quite well. So, it seems she had taken her measurements for nothing?

"Uh~, well, cough cough, Bing'er, don't worry about these little details."

Mu Yang said awkwardly.

It's just body measurements; you can get the answer with a quick glance, right?

It's not a precision instrument, so there's no need to be too demanding. A little error is fine, as long as it doesn't hurt your body when you wear it.

As for why we measured for Shui Bing'er, well, it's just a little romantic gesture between lovers.

"Muyang, I suddenly feel like this armor is a bit uncomfortable. Could you take my measurements?"

Upon hearing that Mu Yang had measured her sister's body size, Shui Yue'er's eyes lit up, and she quickly said something.

Since it's a body measurement, shouldn't it be necessary to take off your clothes? Then... hehehehe.

Upon hearing this, Mu Yang glared at Shui Yue'er.

How could he not know what this little girl was up to?

Thankfully, he's an honest and good brother-in-law, otherwise this girl would probably have been lost for nothing.

At the same time, Shui Bing'er was also looking at her younger sister with a wary expression.

It seems like my little sister is a bit too easy to get!

No, she can share other things with her sister, but Xiao Muyang is not one of them.

Hmm, it seems she'll need to keep an eye on things from now on.

Three days later, inside the forging room.

Looking at the Ice Flame Battle Armor, Ice Phoenix Battle Armor, and Narcissus Battle Armor that had just been forged on the forging table, Mu Yang nodded in satisfaction.

Given that a single-character name sounded a bit awkward, and considering that it was made of spirit-forged metal, Mu Yang did not strictly follow the later classification of battle armor levels in naming it.

Anyway, it's just a name, it doesn't affect actual use, so just use whatever sounds good.

Mu Yang: I reserve the right to interpret all terms!

Then, Mu Yang couldn't wait to put the Ice Flame Battle Armor into his body.

The next second, a flash of icy blue light appeared, and the Ice Flame Battle Armor was instantly donned.

Immediately afterwards, Mu Yang's soul power shifted, and under the resonance amplification of the soul guidance array engraved on the Ice Flame Battle Armor, the soul power aura that was originally emanating from his body at the level of a five-ring Soul King was instantly amplified to the level of a seven-ring Soul Saint.

"Without the Eight Rings, who can rival us?"

Feeling his current strength, which was in no way weaker than his Martial Soul Fusion Skill: Ice Phoenix Flame Shadow state, Mu Yang couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

An ordinary one-word battle armor can make a five-ring Soul King's strength comparable to a seven-ring Soul Saint. His Soul Power level has been cultivated to level 58 Soul King, and his own qualities in all aspects far exceed those of Soul Masters of the same level. With the amplification of the Ice Flame Battle Armor, when he uses the "Ice Flame Secret Technique", he will definitely be one of the best among the seven-ring level.

It's not impossible for him to even challenge an eight-ring Soul Douluo with a white first soul ring, a purple fifth soul ring, and a relatively weak soul ring configuration.

Are there any Soul Masters this weak on the mainland? Of course there are.

There are more than one titled Douluo with a purple fifth spirit ring, so it's normal for such a weak spirit Douluo to appear.

Moreover, this is only for him alone. If we take into account the amplification from the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, he is not far from being a nine-ring Title Douluo like She Long!

It's important to understand that the amplification from a Martial Soul Fusion Skill does not conflict with the amplification from a Battle Armor.

Of course, although the strength enhancement effects of the two do not conflict, they cannot simply be stacked together.

好比冰焰斗铠增幅20级实力，能让他从58级达到78级；而武魂融合技增幅15级实力，能让他从58级达到73级。

However, even if he puts on the battle armor and joins forces with Shui Bing'er to activate the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, his strength will definitely not increase by more than 35 levels, reaching level 93.

There's no other reason. The higher the soul power level, the greater the difference between each level. If we don't consider the multiplier, the difference between one level in the later stages can be equivalent to several levels in the earlier stages, or even more.

Even so, with the Ice Flame Battle Armor in hand, Mu Yang can be considered a master in the world of Soul Masters on the continent.

After all, there are only a few dozen nine-ring titled Douluo in the mainland's Soul Master world. And people like the Platinum Bishop of the Spirit Hall, the elders of the three upper sects, the sect masters of the four lower sects, the marshals and legion commanders of the two great empires, and the deans of the top-ranked advanced Soul Master academies are basically only eight-ring Soul Douluo.

His personal strength is not far from this level, so how can he not be considered a master?

Is battle armor an external object?

External objects, my foot! Battle armor is similar to soul bones. How can soul bones be called external objects?

Moreover, in other fantasy worlds, battle armor can be regarded as a natal magic weapon that is intertwined with the cultivator's own life, and absolutely cannot be classified as an external object.

Hidden weapons like the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, the Yama's Decree, the Peacock Feather, the Rain of Pear Blossom Needles, and the Buddha's Wrath Lotus are considered external weapons.
