Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Clay, the Creator of All Things

However, once we get back, we can check it carefully. If there are no problems, we can try it on some high-temperature flames.

According to Lu Yan's vague memory, whale glue that is over a thousand years old needs to be softened by a special flame.

His thoughts raced, and Lu Yan looked around, finding that there was indeed no one around.

They then became even more unrestrained in their own way.

He reached into the clay donkey's body, pulled out a clay javelin, and took it out.

Then, spirit rings appeared on his body, and the yellow spirit rings flashed with a momentary light.

The clay javelin was instantly petrified.

Lu Yan squeezed the belly of the clay donkey and shot the petrified javelin straight through a tree by the roadside.

Then, Lu Yan pulled on the clay thread, instantly pulling the petrified javelin back.

Even in mid-air, the petrified javelin disintegrated, turning into tiny stone darts that were pulled back at high speed.

Subsequently, Lu Yan launched several more weapons and began experimenting with various imaginative ideas.

All I can say is that the soil is really fun, and Lu Yan found great satisfaction in letting loose and being himself all by himself.

In addition to creating various shaped petrified weapons, Lu Yan also tried his creative idea of ​​wire cutting.

This involves throwing extremely fine clay threads at high speed, petrifying and cutting them just before they touch the target.

Unfortunately, perhaps due to insufficient speed or current intensity, the effect was mediocre.

Lu Yan estimated that at most he could only cut through the flesh, but not the bone.

The attempt ended in failure, but Lu Yan quickly came up with another idea.

He then swung out a clay rope as thick as a thumb, securing it directly to a tree beside the road.

He then retrieved the clay along the rope, which immediately pulled his body over.

Lu Yan's eyes lit up, and he lost interest in the clay donkey, immediately putting it away.

Then, Lu Yan began leaping back and forth among the trees on both sides of the official road, somewhat resembling "Spider-Man" or "3D Maneuver Gear".

And that's where his inspiration came from.

It's a pity that although it looks cool, its speed is only slightly faster than when it runs at full speed on the ground, and it loses the advantage of having its feet firmly planted on the ground.

Lu Yan played for a while and then lost interest. However, this method might have some useful applications in certain situations.

Then, as his feet touched the ground and the Thick Earth Technique activated automatically, another flash of inspiration struck Lu Yan.

Oh right, I haven't tried burrowing yet!

Now that there's no one around, isn't that perfect?

Lu Yan's spirit ring lit up again, this time activating the Fossil to Mud skill, which was aimed at the ground beneath his feet.

As the soul skill was activated, Lu Yan indeed felt that the soul power consumption was more than ten times greater than that of the clay martial soul targeting him.

The ground beneath his feet began to soften, gradually turning into mud that swallowed Lu Yan's feet.

Then, the ankles, the calves, and down to the knees.

Lu Yan realized something was wrong; even if he turned into mud, the pressure on his body would still be there.

But then he realized that this was no challenge for him at all.

A large amount of resonant clay began to emerge from one of the three rings hanging on Lu Yan's chest, quickly enveloping Lu Yan's entire body and forming an egg-shaped space.

It then petrified, and then a giant egg began to slowly sink into the ground.

The whole process lasted for nearly seven or eight seconds.

A dozen minutes later, the giant egg emerged from the ground. Lu Yan opened a hole and leaped up.

He then shook his head in disappointment, deciding to give up on the idea of ​​escaping underground.

With his current earth element affinity, he can only crawl like an ant underground at most, and that would consume a lot of soul power.

Even with the soul power reserves of the resonating clay, it cannot support movement over very long distances.

However, he could still manage to build a small temporary room underground, and then ventilate it using clay pipes.

By combining the Thick Earth Technique with the cultivation of soul power recovery, as long as water and food are sufficient, it is even possible to build a long-term "safe hut" underground.

This little house can even move slowly; over time, wouldn't it be a kind of "burrowing underground"?

This time he's really going to be buried!

Lu Yan chuckled self-deprecatingly, then dismissed the thought, figuring he could develop it gradually as elemental affinity improved.

He glanced at the night sky; his immediate priority was to get to the vicinity of Karting City as quickly as possible.

So, Lu Yan sculpted another clay donkey, mounted it, and began galloping along the official road.

Although the speed was just so-so, about the same as when he was running at full speed, the advantage was that it consumed soul power.

As long as he controls the clay donkey while simultaneously cultivating the Thick Earth Technique, his soul power consumption is almost zero.

In a sense, it could be considered a perpetual motion machine for getting around.

Furthermore, upon entering the Thick Earth Technique cultivation state, he possesses a certain degree of earth perception.

At least, he can detect any movement on the ground within a dozen meters, unless it is too slight.

Perhaps in the future, it can also be developed into a powerful and effective sensing ability.

It can only be said that after Lu Yan's breakthrough with this additional soul ring, there are too many things that require him to invest time and energy in.

In Karding City right now, besides the "Baron's appearance," Lu Yan also has some other ideas.

Chapter 46 The whole family is together

The next day, at noon.

From afar, Lu Yan could see the outline of the city walls of Karding City.

So he found a secluded corner where no one was around and prepared to carry out his next move.

Lu Yan took out the resonance clay and formed a full-length mirror-sized shape in front of him.

Then, Lu Yan spent an extra ten seconds carefully shaping and polishing the mirror surface.

So, when Lu Yan used his soul skill to petrify it, a stone mirror that could be used for a long time was completed.

This was just the beginning. Lu Yan then took out various colors of "pigments" from his storage soul ring.

There are no paint shops in the Soul Hunter Town, but that's no problem for Lu Yan.

Lu Yan searched through various rock and soil powders, and plant juices of all colors, including those from pharmacies and cosmetics shops.

With the help of Wang Dachui and others, they managed to collect all the colors they needed.

He used some of it when he was pretending to be the young baron.

However, Lu Yan didn't actually go all out, so it still looked somewhat fake. He just didn't want to fully expose his disguise abilities.

But in fact, Lu Yan is capable of achieving hyperrealism, that is, making it indistinguishable from the real person.

It can be said that after the quality of the martial soul is improved, the control becomes more convenient.

Lu Yan now has the appearance to disguise himself as anyone larger than himself.

To exaggerate and say it's "ever-changing"... seems a bit of an exaggeration.

However, Lu Yan was unsure whether Wang Dachui and others of this era could conceive of more advanced disguise abilities.

It's highly unlikely.

But even if they think of something, they most likely won't reveal it to the outside world, just like Lu Yan's combat abilities.

They also don't talk much about it to outsiders.

After Lu Yan saw the identity document, family crest, and token in the Baron's storage soul guide ring...

He got the idea, especially after killing the Baron, when the information became more detailed, and the two even had a habit of keeping a diary.

Who keeps a diary if they're a decent person?

Lu Yan skimmed through the Baron's diary; it seemed fairly normal.

It mainly consists of study notes, marksmanship, Soul Master knowledge, and some everyday thoughts.

For example, she complained that her father was too strict in his discipline, and that she only had one personal maid.

For example, the mother said she wanted to be raised by her maternal grandfather in the future, but she kept putting it off.

Baron Shi Yue's diary is essentially a "memoir of a commoner soul master's journey from distortion to becoming a true baron."

Lu Yan could tell that the Baron truly had many things he couldn't say to anyone.

In particular, he actually did things like "killing his wife and children" and "massacring his fellow villagers".

In his diary, the character that appears most often is "Little Stone," the child he abandoned.

And his childhood sweetheart ex-wife.

Perhaps this is the effect of an environment where the strong rule.

This tragedy resulted from a profound distortion of human nature and signs of complete moral decay.

There's a saying, what's it again?

"The old era turned people into ghosts, while the new era turned ghosts into people."

That's probably what it means.

Of course, Lu Yan's sudden remark was also a sudden feeling.

As for changing such an era, Lu Yan hadn't thought about it; he wasn't some kind of saint.

Lu Yan didn't care about the baron's past; as long as the enemy was killed, he didn't care what kind of story he had.

Lu Yan saw an opportunity, an opportunity to replace the Baron's son.

Lu Yan obtained a very important piece of information from the Baron's diary.

No one from the Baron's maternal family had ever seen him, which is also indirectly confirmed by the Baron's diary.
