Douluo: On Becoming a God through Science

The third line has been written.

Continuing to the fifth line, You Chen's hand suddenly stopped after writing a few words.

The first line of text drafted was: Martial Soul Evolution.

He used the purifying power of stardust to erase the four words, wrote them again, and erased them again.

After revising it several times, he finally put pen to paper and wrote: Improve the control over the original power of the martial soul, temper and improve the original power of the martial soul, and study the field.

After several struggles, You Chen finally established the preliminary research direction for the next evolution of his martial soul - the Sacrifice Sanctuary.

The evolutionary result he most desired was naturally the orthodox route in the original work that could evolve all the way to the ultimate form, the Meteor Dragon.

Before this, he had tried to feel the state of "high speed" and "a mind as clear as a mirror and still water" like an immovable wandering star.

Needless to say, as for the former, we have to mention the "Acceleration" soul bone skill of the "Wind Conquering Dragon Left Leg Bone", which You Chen had never used in previous battles.

Just like the right arm bone of Archaeopteryx, You Chen also upgraded it to the level of one hundred thousand years, and obtained the simple yet powerful soul skill of "acceleration".

No matter what time it is, speed has always been Youchen's strongest point in combat.

Speed ​​is undoubtedly an attribute that becomes more difficult to improve the higher you go, and the marginal effect in terms of effort and benefit increases dramatically.

Without using any soul skills, relying only on the blessing of his martial soul and body, as well as his control over the power of wind, You Chen's speed has already reached the upper-middle level of a Super Douluo.

A thousand-year soul skill like the Power of Fierce Wind will hardly have any effect on You Chen's speed.

But the Avenue of Stars still has a significant effect.

Especially if used at night, You Chen is even confident that he can get rid of the Extreme Douluo with speed alone.

And during the Star Avenue period, if we use "acceleration" for another 100,000 years, how fast will it be?

At least, that was a speed that You Chen's current reaction speed and mental strength could not adapt to.

What's more important is that the consumption of soul power is too terrifying.

It would be fine if he didn't use Avenue of Stars, but while using Avenue of Stars and adding acceleration soul skills, You Chen's soul power would drop below 50% within one second.

What is the concept of 50%?

For soul masters with soul cores, more than 80% is the state of "healthy green blood" in soul power, between 50% and 80% is the state of "yellow blood" which requires vigilance, and needless to say, below 50%, it is naturally "severely broken red blood" and in danger.

Of course, what we are talking about here is soul power.

The more soul power you have, the more powerful your soul core will be. If your soul power drops by 50%, the soul core's recovery power will be almost gone.

However, soul masters of the old era who do not have soul cores do not need to consider so much. Their soul power recovery speed has always been much slower than that of soul masters with soul cores, so they do not need to consider this problem at any time.

The soul skill of acceleration seems to be used to counteract the marginal effect of speed growth. The higher the speed increases, the more soul power is consumed.

But considering that he can still significantly increase the speed of Youchen today, it is completely worth the 100,000 years.

It is hard to say whether this is not because You Chen absorbed the high compatibility and additional effects brought by the Wind Summoning Dragon Soul Ring.

Otherwise, even with the soul bone skills of one hundred thousand years, it would still be a bit against the will of heaven.

But at least for now, this is a very difficult soul skill to use.

You Chen estimated that he would have to wait until he broke through to the Titled Douluo level. With the total amount of spirit power of a Titled Douluo, plus his stronger reaction ability at that time, he would be able to use this accelerated spirit skill as a normal killer move.

As for now, it can only be used as an escape skill or a trump card in a life-or-death situation.

And experience the feeling of being at high speed?

What a wonderful experience in just one second! ?

Therefore, at this stage, regarding the topic of martial soul evolution, You Chen's main focus can only be placed on the original power of the martial soul.

Improving control is one aspect, and directly increasing strength itself is another.

As mentioned before, there are more than just two ways to increase the original power of a martial soul: absorbing soul rings and soul bones.

When the soul master's soul power level is high enough and his control over the original power of the martial soul is subtle enough, he will be able to temper and improve the original power of the martial soul independently.

However, this efficiency is far from comparable to that of absorbing soul rings, especially those soul rings that can greatly increase the original power of the martial soul.

In addition, the evolution of martial soul is not a simple process of "accumulating quantity". In the absence of opportunities, there is a limit to the original strength that you can improve on your own.

For example, if your martial soul is of top quality, you can gradually improve it to the limit of top quality through this method, but you cannot break through to the super level.

This opportunity could be a spirit ring, it could be an unprecedented epiphany, it could be a life sublimation that breaks the limit... In short, it would not be so easy to achieve.

However, You Chen's purpose was not to spend a long time to improve the original power of his martial soul, nor was he thinking that he could use this to evolve his martial soul.

He believed that with the number of spirit rings he had left and the expected years, it would be enough to push the original power of the Stardust Dragon's martial soul to its limit.

He wanted to use this to better comprehend the changes in the essence of his martial soul after its evolution.

Just like before, we are pursuing the optimal energy ratio and the path of evolution.

But... You Chen already had a vague premonition.

This time, he will not be able to find a "perfect evolutionary ratio", or in other words... the energy combination that can achieve the power of stardust is already the most perfect energy ratio.

But he decided to verify it anyway.

Only after confirming and truly rejecting this possibility can he fully devote himself to the next possibility.

The existence of the domain is a possibility he anticipated.

Originally, he was almost completely in the dark about the abilities of the domain.

The almost zero energy consumption and the unusually powerful effect in comparison clearly contained a black box operation that he could not understand at this stage.

But the "rule characteristics" in Qian Renxue's mission reward, the word "rule", suddenly gave him a lot of inspiration.

It only requires a very small amount of "start-up" and "maintenance" energy, but it brings extremely exaggerated effects...

Is it that more of this consumption is "paid" by other things?

Or is it that it is not the soul master himself who realizes the effect of the domain, and the soul master merely turns the key to unlock this ability?

I'm afraid that only after in-depth research can we gain some understanding.

In short, after confirming the content of the fifth line, You Chen began to write the sixth line, the seventh line...

6. The transformation of the weapon soul and true body...

7. Integration of Kung Fu and Martial Arts…

8. Soul Skill Optimization...

……

With the set goal in mind, You Chen began a relaxing and pleasant time of practicing and exploring the mysteries of martial spirits.

The only fly in the ointment is…

The little girl Dugu Yan would always look for his clone Youxing, who was left alone in the camp, whenever she had nothing to do, so he had to inject his consciousness into her from time to time to deal with the situation.

Later, You Chen simply called You Xing over in the name of a teacher under the pretext of teaching in seclusion, thinking that this would be enough to persuade Dugu Yan to quit.

Who would have thought that this woman would persevere and come to the teacher in the name of asking for advice...

It's true, before Dugu Bo left, he promised to take care of Dugu Yan and told her to come to him if she had any problems.

This ended up backfiring itself.

But other than that, everything went smoothly.

Chapter 148: Considerations for Becoming a God, You Chen's Ambition

In a blink of an eye, half a year has passed.

After the evolution of his martial soul and the breakthrough of his physical body, his strength directly leaped from the threshold of Titled Douluo to the level of Super Douluo.

Even You Chen took half a year to sort out his own strength.

As his strength increased, a question naturally came to You Chen's mind.

Become a god.

This is a question that almost everyone who travels to Douluo Continent will consider.

In fact, You Chen had started thinking about this issue a long time ago.

There are two well-known paths to becoming a god.

First, inherit the throne.

Second, rely on the power of faith or the will of all living beings to condense a new god.

Inherit the throne of God...Nowadays, the two major thrones that can be found and inherited in Douluo Continent are the thrones of Shura God and Sea God.

If one wants to inherit other god positions, the only way is to participate in the divine examination and then attract the attention of the gods in the divine world. Just like in the original novel, Tang San achieved enlightenment and his family and friends all ascended to heaven.

However, if he really accomplished something great that shook the continent and demonstrated some potential that was enough to attract the gods, You Chen was not sure whether he would be able to attract the gods.

As for other divine examination locations, such as the Ice God's inheritance site, instead of spending so much effort to find this lost inheritance site that has been lost for who knows how many years, You Chen really thinks it would be better to take the second path directly.

Therefore, if one really wants to become a god by inheriting the throne, one cannot avoid the divine tests of these two thrones.

As for the position of Shura God, after a period of meditation and research on the original power of his own martial soul, You Chen has basically ruled out this possibility.

Basically, there is no conflict between the god position and the soul master.

Just like Tang San, the guy who uses grass and hammer, can inherit the throne of Sea God and Shura God.

But, this basically means that there are exceptions.

For example, Qian Renxue, there is an obvious conflict between her angel domain and the killing domain bestowed by the Asura God.

Unless Qian Renxue chooses to abandon her martial soul, it will be impossible for her to inherit the Shura God position.

And this domain is dominated by the ultimate power of purification. You Chen, who possesses the Sacrifice Sanctuary which is extremely similar in nature to the angel domain, is obviously not suitable for this god position.

If his martial spirit was not the Stardust Dragon, but the Crimson Lotus Dragon of Fudo Yusei's good friend Jack, it would be very suitable.

You Chen has the belief that he is a strong man, and there is no way he would choose to discard the power of his martial soul, which can be said to be the essence of his life's achievements, for an unsuitable position of Shura God!

Next is Poseidon.

There is no doubt... You Chen hates Poseidon very much.

It’s not just because this deity is a symbol of Tang San’s “purity and innocence”.

It was because of Poseidon himself...

In order to show how popular Tang San is, the original novel specifically wrote a scene in which the God Shura and the God of the Sea take advantage of loopholes in the rules of the God Realm in order to snatch Tang San, the successor.

But even though they are both taking advantage of loopholes, Poseidon is obviously more disgusting.

Especially since this guy deliberately staged a public execution when Qian Renxue inherited the throne, exposing Qian Renxue's privacy directly to the entire continent...

Even though such a thing has not happened in this time and space, You Chen, as Qian Renxue's teacher, still feels very disgusted.

This god gives people a very mean and vulgar feeling, and is really a bit similar to the feeling given by the old pervert of the same name in a certain Greek mythology.

You Chen did want to teach Qian Renxue a lesson, but if someone else wanted to bully his bad disciple, that would be another matter!

Of course, only he himself can teach his apprentice!

Especially the despicable and disgusting methods of the Sea God were something You Chen could never accept.

So even though he had never met the Sea God, You Chen had already silently regarded him as an imaginary enemy in his heart.

When You Chen thought that if he inherited the throne of Poseidon, it would be completely in line with Poseidon's wishes and would satisfy his wish to be free from the constraints of the throne and live freely, he felt a little uncomfortable.

He has absolutely no interest in the throne of Poseidon.

Of course, the most important thing is that You Chen himself does not want to ascend to the divine realm.

It is clearly stated in the original novel that, except for a few outliers like Tang San who want to hold all the power in the divine world in their hands, most gods want to resign and then travel to different lower realms with their relatives and friends.

Inheriting the throne and ascending to the divine realm is equivalent to becoming a civil servant in the divine realm...

In other words, they become gods in name, but in reality they still have to work for people.

Even in the lower realm, people are only on official business and there is no permission to wander around.

Only those few supreme gods have a certain degree of freedom.

However, the God King is also not allowed to interfere in the lower world without permission. Once violated, the person will be punished according to the law.

The God King is the one who maintains order and rules. If the one who upholds the law violates the law, other God Kings must severely punish the God King who made the mistake, even if it is to maintain the legitimacy of the God Realm Committee.
