Douluo Continent: Building a Divine Kingdom Starting from the Spirit Hall

What exactly is the situation?

Feeling puzzled, Dugu Bo looked at Meng Shu and his wife.

When he came over before, he only saw that person's martial soul and physical essence merge into Meng Yiran's martial soul and body, and even her soul bone was guided to merge, but he didn't know the specifics.

Meng Shu did not hide anything and told them about the previous situation and their analysis and speculation about the three corpses.

"Pity!"

Upon hearing that a prodigy had been poisoned to death by his companion, Dugu Bo felt a deep sense of regret. However, upon realizing that the victim was a member of the Breaking Clan, he smiled.

It's good that the Po clan is so powerful; he'd love for all the members of the Po clan to die!

"Teacher, is Yiran now considered a legendary twin martial soul?"

Xue Qinghe suddenly asked, "I can tell that Meng Yiran likely has twin martial souls. If that's true, it's extraordinary."

"No, I can sense that this part of the martial soul cannot carry a soul ring on its own. It can only resonate with the soul bone to enhance physical attributes. However, it can be enhanced along with the improvement of the spear part of the martial soul."

Before Dugu Bo could speak, Meng Yiran shook her head slightly, indicating that it was not a twin martial soul.

After listening to his disciple's account, Dugu Bo fell into deep thought and said, "I have heard of this situation before. It is said that there was once a person whose martial soul was a bow and arrow, with both a longbow and arrows. He used the arrows as the main weapon and the longbow as the secondary weapon, and his soul rings could only be added to the arrows."

However, the part of the serpentine martial soul that remains has likely mutated, allowing it to resonate and fuse with the soul bone, and even evolve the power of the soul bone into a soul ring.

"That gives me an idea."

Finally, Dugu Bo suddenly had a bold idea. He took out three boxes from his storage soul tool, opened them, and revealed three soul bones that shimmered with brilliant light.

"A soul bone from ten thousand years ago!"

The Meng Shu couple stared intently at the three soul bones, and could tell that they were definitely 100,000-year-old soul bones; there was no doubt about the soul power they exuded.

"The soul bones were fine before, but because the three upper sects hunted down 100,000-year-old soul beasts to seize their soul bones, the soul beast race devised a countermeasure, leaving a fatal hidden danger in the soul bones, which would explode once refined."

"I've studied this for many years without finding a solution, but this situation might be a breakthrough..."

Before Dugu Bo could finish speaking, the snake-head helmet on Meng Yiran's head suddenly transformed into half a snake's body, opened its mouth and swallowed the three soul bones.

Dugu Bo was dumbfounded by this scene, truly not expecting such a strange change to occur.

This was just the beginning. As the half-snake body swallowed the three soul bones, the spear that was associated with it unleashed its domineering spear domain and spear intent, helping to suppress the three soul bones.

Before long, six crimson orbs of light separated and transformed into six soul rings that slowly rotated.

Immediately afterwards, three streams of heat flowed in from between her eyebrows, passing through Meng Yiran's chest, left arm, and right leg, and condensing into a bluish-green snake scale armor on her body.

The six spirit rings also dispersed, slowly rotating on the armor of his torso, left arm, and right leg.

As if a connection had been established, the soul bones on his left hand and right foot resonated intensely with the spreading snake patterns, transforming into gauntlets and combat boots.

Everyone was stunned to see Meng Yiran with a full twelve spirit rings on her body and spirit.

What's happening here?

Unbeknownst to them, there was another person inside the tent, but he went unnoticed by others, not even by Dugu Bo, who was at level ninety-nine. Needless to say, it was Tian, ​​who had been secretly causing trouble all along.

"That's perfectly reasonable."

Looking at Meng Yiran, whose body was mostly covered by snake scale armor, Tian Hao felt that this arrangement was quite reasonable. He fused the snake part of the snake staff with the soul bone to transform it into armor, which was equivalent to a kind of armor martial soul, and also a kind of weapon martial soul.

Chapter 574 The Battle of the Three Heroes

Dugu Bo and the others naturally had no idea of ​​someone's existence, much less that someone was secretly causing trouble, or even orchestrating all of this.

Dugu Bo was the first to react. Seeing that his disciple did not show any pain, he was relieved and then said thoughtfully, "The soul skills on the soul bone also originate from the soul beast. In essence, they are the same as the soul ring skills."

However, when a soul beast dies, it can only form one soul ring, and the excess power is gathered on the soul bone to form soul bone skills.

However, the serpentine martial soul can still separate the essence of the soul skills within the soul bone and transform it into a soul ring that attaches to the body, which perfectly solves the hidden danger that the 100,000-year-old soul bone cannot be refined.

"We're still missing an arm and a leg soul bone, but they should be able to undergo this transformation too. Once they're complete, they'll form a full set of armor, essentially a secondary soul to the Serpent Spear soul."

At this point, Dugu Bo took out several soul bones from his storage soul tool.

In recent years, in order to study the situation of 100,000-year-old soul bones being buried with mines, he has not only studied 100,000-year-old soul bones with mines, but also normal soul bones.

These soul bones were provided by the Star Luo royal family. Although they were not very old, they were just enough for him to study and compare.

Of course, he didn't want Meng Yiran to refine these soul bones, since these soul bones were a bit too young. He just wanted to see if the snake pattern would still actively manifest and devour them.

The result was obvious: this time the snake armor remained silent, seemingly uninterested in those low-quality soul bones.

"She's quite a picky eater."

Dugu Bo smiled, put away the few soul bones, and asked.

"You had two of your soul bones shattered by that spear intent before, so you should know what it feels like to have your physical abilities improved after refining a soul bone. Now that you've swallowed three soul bones, do you still feel that improvement?"

"There has been an improvement in all aspects of my body, but I feel that it is not an improvement of my own body, but rather an improvement assisted by this armor. Now that I have taken this armor back, it is gone. It feels very similar to the state of being possessed by a beast spirit."

However, the bone strength has been greatly improved, and this armor is very lightweight, almost weightless.

After carefully sensing it again, even putting away the armor and trying to feel it once more, Meng Yiran shook her head, indicating that there was nothing there, and was slightly disappointed.

Refining soul bones, especially fresh ones, can greatly improve physical fitness.

It was because she had refined a soul bone back then that her grandmother chose that human-faced demon spider with over two thousand years of cultivation for her. It was just a pity that Tang San ended up getting the better deal.

This time, he even specially refined a head soul bone, which is why he skipped levels and set his sights on a ten-thousand-year-old human-faced demon spider.

These calculations were all performed using the Spirit Hall's medical examination system, so there's absolutely no mistake.

Currently, neither the four hand and foot soul bones, nor the head soul bone, nor the three newly refined soul bones have improved her physical attributes.

That was just an improvement from wearing armor, not an improvement in one's physical attributes.

"That kind of energy couldn't just disappear into thin air. I guess it was used to fuse your half of your martial soul and soul bone, which resulted in this set of armor."

Dugu Bo stared at the set of turquoise armor and made a guess. This kind of almost subversive martial soul mutation must require a lot of energy. According to his senses, this disciple had just consumed a lot of soul power, and nothing else.

Meng Yiran was only a level 40 Soul Master, and her Soul Power was far from enough for this level of Martial Soul mutation. Therefore, the energy required for the Martial Soul mutation was naturally obtained from the Soul Bone.

"Junior sister's image is too eye-catching, and she is easily targeted by some people."

"Teacher, I've heard that the Canghui Academy team has been participating in team battles in many city arenas lately, but strangely, they haven't revealed their spirit rings. It might be some kind of special secret technique. If we could exchange that technique with them, it would be much safer for them to use."

Looking at the spirit rings on Meng Yiran's body, Xue Qinghe made a suggestion.

Putting aside the level of Meng Yiran's eight spirit rings, this new form alone is quite astonishing.

Not to mention the four crimson spirit rings on that snake spear; this number is far beyond the standard and will inevitably attract the attention of some people.

"You take care of this matter."

With a flicker in his eyes, Dugu Bo approved the suggestion, but he did not intend to negotiate with Canghui Academy in person. Firstly, he was not good at such things, and secondly, he wanted Xue Qinghe to personally bestow favors on this junior disciple and bind him to the Tiandou Empire.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Qinghe!"

Meng Yiran thanked him tactfully. She was no stranger to Xue Qinghe, as he had hosted the Soul Master Competition in the Tiandou region and led a team to Wuhun City for the finals. She had seen him in the recording of the Soul Master Competition.

“I hope you can communicate with me more in the future, little sister. I have achieved some success in kendo.”

Xue Qinghe smiled gently, showing great interest in this junior sister.

Although this junior sister doesn't possess twin martial souls, she's almost there, and in some respects, she even has more potential than someone with twin martial souls.

Moreover, this form of martial spirit integrates offense and defense, and can be manifested and used simultaneously, making it even more powerful.

Most importantly, this kind of soul bone armor is very valuable for research. It is somewhat similar to the soul power armor of the Vajra Dragon Elephant Sect. Once some research results are obtained from it, it will be enough to raise the strength of their entire royal family to a higher level.

"I would appreciate your guidance, Senior Brother Qinghe."

With his obedient response, Meng could still sense the powerful sword intent emanating from this senior brother.

"Little sister Yiran, what are the spirit rings and spirit skills on your gun?"

Dugu Yan couldn't help but ask curiously, her beautiful eyes falling on the four blood-red soul rings on the gun.

She had just heard Meng Shu recount what had happened and was very envious of her junior sister's good fortune. At the same time, she was very curious about the four soul rings and soul skills that she had inherited from the martial soul of that prodigy of the Broken Clan.

You have to understand that it's a spirit ring that's 100,000 years old.

Not only was Dugu Yan curious, but Meng Shu and Chaotianxiang were also very curious.

"It's very strange. All four 100,000-year spirit rings have only one spirit skill, which is to increase the sharpness of the spear blade. They are exactly the same."

Meng Yiran also looked at the snake spear in her hand, not quite understanding that kind of soul ring and soul skill.

"Exactly the same?"

Dugu Bo was surprised, and then he made a guess, but he did not say it. Instead, he looked at his granddaughter beside him. However, seeing his granddaughter's confused little face, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He then turned to look at his adopted disciple Xue Qinghe on the other side.

"Qinghe, do you have any guesses?"

That's right, he was testing this disciple.

Xue Qinghe understood his teacher's meaning. After thinking for a moment, he analyzed, "I know something about the Breaking Clan. They follow an extremely extreme path of limit-breaking. The spirit rings they choose are usually from the same type of spirit beast, which forms the basis for fusion rings and maximizes their attack power."

However, it is not easy to form the same soul skill, and a 100,000-year soul ring has two soul skills, but Yiran said that each only has one.

This situation reminds me of the characteristics of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's martial soul and soul skills. No matter what kind of soul ring the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School martial soul obtains, the soul skill effects are fixed.

Given the situation with the younger sister, either the Soul-Breaking Spear, the martial soul of that prodigy of the Breaking Clan, has mutated and acquired characteristics similar to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, or she has artificially altered her soul rings and soul skills.

We'll have to wait until Yiran obtains her next soul ring to determine which one it is.

After listening to his disciple's analysis, Dugu Bo nodded in satisfaction; he thought so too.

"Why wait? Those three people should have storage soul tools on them; there might be clues inside."

Dugu Yan suddenly suggested a possibility: she preferred taking a shortcut rather than spending time waiting.

Moreover, the three of them were able to enter the Sunset Forest, so they must have had storage soul tools to carry some things, such as dry food and clean water.

"Yan Yan is right, my mind is rigid."

Realizing what had happened, Xue Qinghe chuckled and slapped his forehead, realizing that his thinking was still not flexible enough.

“Those two traitors had storage soul tools, and we searched for them, but we didn’t find anything remarkable.”

Chao Tianxiang shook her head slightly and looked at her granddaughter as she spoke.

She was the one who dealt with the two corpses before, and she also carefully examined the storage soul tool, but the results were mediocre.

The prodigy of the Broken Clan must also have a storage soul tool, but it was previously shrouded by that domineering spear domain, so they couldn't get close. However, after that person's body and martial soul merged into his granddaughter's snake staff, one of his storage soul tools fell off and was collected by his granddaughter.
