Douluo Continent: All the identities I've played have become gods.

Chapter 99 A Unique Soul System

"I would like to hear the details."

After a moment of silence, Xue Di, the person in charge, broke the atmosphere first.

Although Su Ming's words about becoming a special soul ring had indeed stunned her.

However, Xue Di reacted quickly and thought about it again.

In matters of such importance, someone of Su Ming's status would not make such nonsensical jokes.

This illustrates one point.

That is, there is other important information hidden within this that has not been revealed.

If all of this is stated, then the prerequisite of "becoming a special spirit ring" might become much easier to achieve.

Besides, since this topic has already been brought up...

Su Ming's meaning was quite clear: he wanted them to hear it.

Xue Di wasn't one to hesitate or be indecisive. Rather than looking back and forth and letting the other party look down on her, she preferred to be direct and decisive.

Di Tian's thoughts were basically the same as Xue Di's, which is why he didn't speak and left the topic to Xue Di to elaborate on.

If any unexpected situation arises, Di Tian will certainly not stand idly by and will take immediate remedial action.

Seeing that Xue Di was showing some interest, Su Ming didn't keep her in suspense and began to explain directly.

"Back then, my Three Ones Patriarch was deeply moved by the method of becoming a god through the primordial spirit, and was amazed by it."

Later, combining this theory with innovation, they created the Soul Spirit System to benefit countless lives and alleviate the relationship between human Soul Masters and Soul Beasts.

"Lord Su Ming, is everything you've said true?"

After Su Ming explained in detail the inspiration and purpose behind the creation of the so-called Soul System by the Three Ones Ancestor.

Di Tian felt as if he were listening to some kind of fantastical story.

Because the starting point of the Three Ones Patriarch's teachings is simply too outrageous!

This was so outrageous that Di Tian started to lose his composure and couldn't sit still any longer; he wanted to get to the bottom of it!

Xue Di's expression wasn't much better when she heard these words.

After all, in reality, the relationship between human soul masters and soul beasts is not that complicated.

There's only one reason—a mortal enemy!

Despite being a human Soul Master, Su Ming is treated with respect by Di Tian and Xue Di.

That's because Su Ming's own status and strength determined all of this.

Without these factors, things might have been completely ruined.

Even among the soul beast race, there are those who do not wish to see the rise of genius soul masters.

After all, the rise of each Soul Master means that more Soul Beasts will perish as a result.

The relationship between human soul masters and soul beasts in the wild.

Using the phrase "it's either you or me" to describe it is not an exaggeration at all.

For Soul Masters, Soul Beasts are the only way to acquire power and a necessary resource once they reach a certain stage of cultivation.

Soul Masters can only improve their strength by hunting Soul Beasts and obtaining Soul Rings.

Soul rings can grant soul masters many core abilities, such as soul skills, enhanced physical fitness, and the ability to break through bottlenecks and continue cultivation.

Therefore, if a Soul Master wants to improve themselves, they will inevitably hunt Soul Beasts and obtain the corresponding Soul Rings.

On the other hand, spirit beasts also have their own wisdom and pursuits.

They won't stay put and wait to die, nor do they want their lives to be threatened.

When you encounter a Soul Master, you either need to take action or stay far away.

As long as the traditional model of Soul Masters hunting Soul Beasts and obtaining Soul Rings continues to exist.

Therefore, the relationship between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts remains one of mortal enemies.

And most importantly, compared to a genius soul master who can become an unparalleled powerhouse in just a hundred years.

The growth rate of soul beasts is far too slow, often taking thousands or tens of thousands of years.

In addition, configuring a Soul Master's Soul Rings requires hunting down multiple Soul Beasts.

A titled Douluo requires nine spirit rings. Furthermore, the age of the spirit rings increases with each passing year.

Those with the means and the ability even plan to hunt down 100,000-year-old soul beasts.

This kind of hunting is completely unsustainable and a case of killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.

It is worth mentioning that the quality and quantity of human soul masters in this era are not very good.

Even though this problem has been around for a long time, not many people have considered it or paid much attention to it.

In the future, as times change.

The quantity and quality of Soul Masters will inevitably increase.

Correspondingly, the conflict between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts will become increasingly larger and more acute, eventually becoming impossible to conceal and brought to the forefront.

As the number of Soul Masters increases and the pursuit of power intensifies, the scale of hunting Soul Beasts is also constantly expanding.

In addition to the rapid decrease in the number of soul beasts, their living space is being severely squeezed, and their territories are being constantly encroached upon by human forces, causing a series of chain reactions.

Seeing Di Tian's reaction, Su Ming nodded again in affirmation:

"Yes, you heard me right. My starting point was that good and that grand."

In the original novel, during the Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect era.

By chance, with the help of the Necromancer Saint God Ilex, Huo Yuhao finally created the first Soul Spirit on the Douluo Continent—the Snow Empress.

After continuous exploration, the new system called "Soul Spirit" was finally determined.

Soul spirits can be seen as another form of existence for soul beasts:

"Extract the soul of a soul beast from its body in a special way and sign a contract with the soul master, so that it can be transformed into a soul master's soul ring without being hunted."

In this form, the soul beast's soul can not only retain its consciousness, but can even help the soul master in battle.

The effect is nothing short of miraculous.

Later, Huo Yuhao even created the Spirit Pagoda, spreading the spirit system throughout the entire Douluo Continent in an attempt to alleviate the conflict between human spirit masters and spirit beasts.

The most direct and obvious benefit is that it truly reduces the number of soul masters killing soul beasts from the very beginning.

Originally, a soul beast could only provide one soul ring and one soul skill, but after becoming a soul spirit, it can provide two, three, or even five or six at once.

Furthermore, when a Soul Master uses a Soul Skill, the Soul Power consumed is much less than that provided by a regular Soul Ring, and the strength exerted is more than twice as strong as before.

In addition, the soul can still be passed down, which greatly reduces the consumption.

However, the soul system also has many drawbacks.

This is especially disadvantageous for spirit beasts.

For example, if a soul beast loses its physical body and continues to live as a spirit, although it retains its life, it is equivalent to being enslaved in a disguised form.

Throughout its entire life, it can only reside within the body of a Soul Master. Wherever the Soul Master goes, it can only go there, akin to imprisonment, without any right to decide, just like an object.

Even if the Soul Master dies, it can only choose to sign a contract with other Soul Masters to continue serving them, and will never be free.

Therefore, apart from soul beasts nearing the end of their lifespan, the vast majority of soul beasts are forced to become soul spirits.

At the same time, the creation of souls is like the soul masters themselves opening a Pandora's box full of temptations.

A single spirit can provide multiple spirit skills, can evolve, and can be passed down to future generations, making it even more precious than a spirit bone. This further fuels human greed.

By the time of the Dragon King Legend, the Soul Beasts were nearly extinct.

The promotion of spirits not only failed to resolve the conflict between spirit beasts and humans, but also further deepened the hatred of spirit beasts towards humans.

However, in Su Ming's view, proposing the concept of the Soul Spirit System at this stage is more beneficial than harmful.

Furthermore, in the later stages, Su Ming will take the lead in the entire Soul Spirit system to prevent imbalances and other drawbacks, and to ensure the rational use of Soul Spirits.

After all, Su Ming wasn't the kind of person who would kill someone and then leave the body unburied.

Moreover, the Soul system has a bright future and is one of the most suitable channels for continuously harvesting willpower.

After giving Di Tian and Xue Di a general explanation of the details of the Soul Spirit system,

Su Ming inquired about their opinions on the Soul Spirit system, "What do you two think? Don't you think this Soul Spirit system is pretty good? And Snow Empress, would you like to try out this Soul Spirit technique?"

"If this soul system can really be realized, it will truly benefit our world."

Di Tian nodded, agreeing with Su Ming's statement.

Admittedly, the drawbacks of the Soul system in the late game are obvious to everyone.

However, at this stage, the Soul Spirit system is indeed much better than the model of directly hunting Soul Beasts and obtaining Soul Rings.

"Then let's give it a try."

The latest novel is first published here!

After pondering for a long time, Xue Di finally gave a clear answer.

To become Su Ming's soul, mutually benefiting and bound together with him.

Finally, he took advantage of the favorable wind and relied on the so-called method of becoming a god through the soul.

It seems like walking a tightrope on a precipice, where one wrong step could lead to utter ruin.

In fact, the success rate of becoming a god through this method is definitely much higher than studying methods like the Yuanling Godhood method.

Because Su Ming himself was aiming to become a god.

If you can truly become the other person's soul, then the scenario of "one person attains enlightenment and all their relatives and friends benefit" will inevitably unfold, and you'll be able to share in the rewards.

Even in the end, the method of achieving godhood through the soul failed.

At least it's still a form of immortality, following a god as a spirit.

Overall, it's not a loss; there's a safety net.

Moreover, Su Ming added supplementary information midway through the process.

As the first example of someone becoming a spirit, Xue Di's willingness to try certainly warrants some compensation.

The signed contract is absolutely the most lenient and free, unlike being a slave who is utterly humiliated, and offers considerable autonomy.

As for the path to godhood through the soul, one can ascend to godhood on their own.

The Snow Empress doesn't even dare to imagine such a scene at this stage.

Even the Soul Spirit system only made its decision because of Su Ming's existence, who was destined to become a god.

"then."

As soon as he finished speaking, a scroll flew out from Su Ming's robe sleeve.

It was directly accepted by Xue Di.

This scroll contains information about the cultivation of the Soul System and the requirements of the contract.

"Since we're starting to shift towards the Soul system, then you and I will be the first in history. We must be fully prepared."

Su Ming said frantically, "I'm going to wash away my existing soul rings, rearrange and acquire new ones, and get completely closer to the soul spirit system. If I'm going to leave, I might as well leave completely."

These crazy words are enough to demonstrate Su Ming's determination.

His spirit rings are all extremely precious.

The fourth spirit ring was taken from the only Dark Demon Evil God Tiger on the continent.

We'll definitely have to deal with it properly then, otherwise it would be a real waste.

The original black bead that was previously saved can be used at this time.

Di Tian and Xue Di were once again stunned by Su Ming's actions.

I never expected Su Ming to be so ruthless to himself.

The significance of spirit rings to spirit masters is self-evident.

Generally speaking, if a spirit ring is broken, it means that the spirit master is useless.

Now, Su Ming is taking the initiative to try to remove his soul rings and fully cooperate with the soul spirit system.

But this also means that Su Ming is truly optimistic about the Soul Spirit system.

Then the probability of success will be very high, and the future will be very bright.

Seeing this scene, Xue Di suddenly felt that she had made the most correct decision.

Like himself, the other person chose the path of madness.

Who knows, it might actually be a huge success!

Xue Di thought to herself with delight, and began to look forward to that day.

"Three months. At the latest, I will return to the far north to complete the contract with you. I will make you the first spirit on this continent. You'd better be prepared then."

Immediately afterwards, Su Ming and Xue Di set a time limit.

Xue Di didn't say much and simply agreed.

"Then, Su Ming and Di Tian, ​​I will take my leave now," said Xue Di.

She needed to go back and race against time to prepare for the upcoming contract ceremony.

"Okay. Go ahead." Su Ming let them go directly.

The plan has been accomplished, so there is no need for Xue Di to stay here any longer and waste time.

The first priority for the other party now is to thoroughly understand the contents of the scroll that I gave her.

This is her greatest support for the matter of the soul.

The matter concerning the soul is of utmost importance, and there will be absolutely no mistakes at that time.

After watching the Snow Empress depart, Di Tian finally spoke and asked:

"Lord Su Ming, I wonder if I might catch a glimpse of your true form at the contract ceremony three months from now?"

"That's certainly no problem. After all, the Soul Spirit system involves Soul Beasts and Soul Masters, so your evaluation is definitely necessary."

Su Ming paid no attention to Di Tian's ulterior motives.

As he said, the soul system is of great importance and will definitely be treated with utmost care.

After all, only in this way can we achieve a steady and long-term flow of income and maximize the harvest of people's aspirations.

Once successfully implemented, even spirit beasts would have to provide him with the power of will to harvest!

The thought of getting rich overnight is quite exciting.

"Then thank you very much, Lord Su Ming. At the same time, I would like to congratulate you in advance on your success." Di Tian flattered, following behind Su Ming.

With this matter settled, there's no need to stay in the far north anymore.

It's time to leave.

For Su Ming, this trip to the far north went exceptionally smoothly.

They also completed an unexpected layout.

And so, Su Ming and Di Tian set off, beginning their journey away from the far north.
