Douluo: On Becoming a God through Science

The next moment, Diwan grinned, and a black soul ring suddenly lit up.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew up in the sky.

As elves that summon the wind, the wind-calling spirits who control the power of wind were the first to notice the strange phenomenon in the sky.

The largest wind-calling spirit leader was the first to raise his lotus leaf head.

Then he saw the endless gale gathered in Diwan's hand, condensing into a huge spear with a vaguely visible outline.

The sixth soul skill, weapon soul skill, Storm Controller!

Woo!

The air seemed to be wailing.

When the Wind Calling Spirit leader looked up, it was already too late.

As two more soul rings lit up, Diwan had already thrown out the invisible spear.

The supersonic attack pinned the Wind Spirit leader to the spot before he could even react.

Immediately afterwards, the wind binding that originally wrapped the spear suddenly exploded, forming a violent air explosion. While causing secondary damage to the Wind Summoning Spirit leader, the aftermath blew away the younger Wind Summoning Spirits around.

tread.

Diwan stepped on the handle of the spear, and the powerful soul power fluctuation became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The wind-calling spirits who were originally thinking about rescuing their leader felt the huge gap in strength and fled in panic.

"Aren't you too violent?" You Chen complained at the right time.

In response, Dewan raised an eyebrow and smiled, "But this is fast, isn't it?"

For the current Diwan, a wind-calling spirit with more than 24,000 years of cultivation can be easily defeated even without using soul skills, let alone using soul skills?

With such a bodyguard around, it would be difficult for You Chen to get into any accidents.

He successfully completed the tail blade, and then began to absorb the fifth soul ring.

After yawning, Diwan found a stone block and moved it next to the tree that was still intact, leaning against it and sitting quietly.

Compared to the consumption of defeating the target soul beast, this half-day search consumed more energy and soul power.

However, even though he was silently recovering, his attention was never away from You Chen. If anything went wrong, he would be able to interrupt You Chen's absorption of the spirit ring in the first place.

On the other side, You Chen has once again entered the process of "self-created soul skills".

Chapter 33 The Fifth Soul Ring

Among the second tier of You Chen’s targets, Wind Calling Spirit is the soul beast with the lowest strength.

But even though its shortcomings are so obvious, You Chen still ranks it in the second tier, of course, because its advantages are equally obvious.

This kind of soul beast is one of the few elven creatures constructed purely with wind energy. Basically, it chooses to absorb the Wind Summoning Spirit as its soul ring, which can more or less enhance the martial soul's control over wind power.

If it is used to simulate wind-type soul skills, the operability of the soul master's self-simulated soul skills will be one level higher than that of other wind-type soul beasts.

To give a simple example, the second soul skill of the Evil-Eyed White Tiger has basically solidified into "White Tiger Fiery Light Wave" after it fixedly hunted a certain soul beast that was determined by its ancestors based on experience.

You Chen can draw several conclusions by reverse deduction.

First, this soul beast and the Evil-Eyed White Tiger have a very high degree of compatibility, otherwise it would be impossible for every Evil-Eyed White Tiger soul master to obtain this soul skill from its soul ring so stably.

Second, even if the Evil Eyed White Tiger Soul Master used his own soul skills when absorbing the soul ring, he would not be able to change the foundation of this soul skill.

Self-created soul skills do not mean that a soul master can create whatever soul skill he wants.

While high compatibility and high stability bring about soul skills with stronger overall quality, they also often reduce the possibility of determining the soul skills.

No matter how you use your subjective consciousness to influence the generation of this soul skill, in the end it will be a soul skill that releases energy through the kiss.

Even if You Chen were to take charge, the most he could do was to change this soul skill to favor long-range attack or medium-range combat.

Most of the soul rings with high compatibility have basically limited the type of soul skills before being absorbed.

The remaining degrees of freedom lie in secondary attributes such as "release method", "operability", "range", and "soul power consumption".

There will be at least one or two items that are equally difficult to choose from.

For example, when Yan hunted the soul beast for the second soul ring, he had already determined before absorbing it that it would be a defensive soul skill, and it would only be presented in the form of a shield or barrier.

The Wind-Calling Soul Ring has the highest degree of freedom among all soul beasts.

Apart from being limited to pure energy types, which cannot produce soul skills that strengthen the body or condense physical objects, all types of attack, auxiliary, defense, and amplification can be produced.

Therefore, even though its strength as a soul beast is not high and the increase in the soul ring itself is not as good as that of other soul beasts in the same period of time, this point alone makes it extremely valuable to You Chen.

And twenty to thirty thousand years is almost the limit for this kind of soul beast. The soul skill he wants to construct is naturally the signature skill of the Stardust Dragon, which is in a sense more well-known than the "Sacrificial Sanctuary" - "Sonic Shooting"!

Strictly speaking, it is not a 100% restored "shooting speed of sound".

After Youchen (II) or Little Youchen absorbed the first soul ring, through the soul skill "Sacrificial Sanctuary", Youchen can be said to have truly gained a preliminary understanding of the power of Stardust Dragon, the future form of the Star Skeleton Dragon.

He still couldn't control this power perfectly. But just like someone who can't play football but can understand the game, he started from being a complete layman to becoming a "player".

In You Chen's original imagination, the Sacrifice Sanctuary was an ability that was mainly based on divine power, supplemented by star power at most.

But the fact is, not only the power of stars, but also the power of wind is integrated into it.

This is an ability that was born from the perfect use of the three powers.

You Chen had no idea about the principle of "Sacrificial Sanctuary" before. He only knew that Stardust Dragon had a skill called "Sacrificial Sanctuary".

After You Chen "explained the effect he wanted to achieve", he relied on the spirit ring to automatically complete the corresponding modules because the Stardust Dragon's predecessor, the Stardust Dragon, also had the corresponding power hidden in its body.

What You Chen gave was the "output result", and Wuhun had this ability, so he gave the "input process", thus realizing the complete skill.

It was equivalent to the spirit ring bestowed by the system helping You Chen to carry out reverse engineering.

The result was different from what was expected, which was completely within You Chen's expectations.

Rather, this was his original purpose.

Through the "Sacrificial Sanctuary", he has vaguely seen that "Sonic Shooting" is not a pure wind skill.

It is impossible to simulate a completely authentic "Shooting Speed" by using the soul ring of the soul beast Summoning Wind Spirit, which does not have the power of stars and divine power. The best you can do is to get infinitely close.

And in this process, You Chen will definitely be able to have a deeper understanding of his own martial soul.

With You Chen's spiritual power far beyond his realm of Lingyuan, and his proficiency as the inventor of "self-imagined soul skills", this process was much smoother than others imagined.

As for the twenty-four thousand year soul ring lifespan?

Perhaps not long ago, he could only barely bear a spirit ring of just over 20,000 years old, but after his martial soul evolved, his life essence was improved.

There is also the enhancement brought by Youchen (II) or Little Youchen absorbing the first spirit ring. Even though most of the enhancement is attached to the spirit ring and cannot be enjoyed after switching back to the main character card, even if it is only one tenth of the enhancement, it is equivalent to absorbing an extra perfectly suitable thousand-year spirit ring.

Combining the two, the 25% annual service life increase is well within his tolerance.

He absorbed the soul ring and engraved his impression of the shooting speed shown in the animation into the soul ring. At the same time, he continued to weave and analyze the principle concept of this skill after coming to this world.

In the process of the soul skill taking shape, just like when he first came up with the "Sacrificial Sanctuary", many insights naturally emerged.

"Sure enough, this is a move that is mainly based on wind, but also incorporates star power and divine power!"

"The wind is the main one, the stars are the secondary one, and the sacred is the hidden background? The energy ratio is... 5:2:1?"

"Hmm. No, I can't analyze the specific integration process. The support of the martial spirit itself is not enough."

The soul rings of soul beasts with a certain degree of compatibility can develop the ability of the martial soul itself. So even if Wind Caller is a pure wind-type soul beast, in the process of building "Shooting Sonic Speed", the martial soul will also tap into its potential and make this soul skill move towards the direction that is most suitable for the martial soul, that is, the original "Shooting Sonic Speed".

It will naturally fill in the attribute power that was originally missing.

However, the energy generated by tapping the potential of the martial soul cannot compare to the soul ring that concentrates most of the soul beast's vitality.

When the wind power of the Wind Summoner began to gain the upper hand, the final form of the soul skill inevitably began to deviate.

Twenty minutes later, You Chen slowly opened his eyes and smiled.

The fifth soul ring is done!

Constructing a complete version of Shooting Sonic is an impossible task, at least Youchen’s original purpose has been achieved.

Different from other soul masters who were eager to complete the absorption process as quickly as possible, You Chen even disliked the limited time, which was too short!

Chapter 34: Riot in the Xingdou Great Forest, Parting with Diwan

"You look like you're in a good mood, huh? Hmm, you're already level 54? Even if you've had an extra years, your soul power has increased a lot, right? Tsk tsk, it seems that what I said before may not be hopeless after all."

"It's only been four thousand years, and I summoned the Wind Spirit. Where did I get so much soul power? I practiced all this in advance. But you have a better eye. You can see that this is just a little soul power fluctuation that I didn't hold back after absorbing the soul ring?"

You Chen looked at Di Wan with a meaningful expression.

With the help of the Breath-Containing Technique, his ability to hide his level has now reached a new level.

This world is not the kind of world where everyone has a rank sign on their head, or where everyone knows each other's rank once a fight is revealed.

When soul masters judge a person's level, they first look at the soul ring and then the aura.

Therefore, generally speaking, the ability assessment of people with similar abilities to oneself is more accurate.

Diwan looked at Youchen's expression, sniffed, and curled his lips and said, "You are as cautious as ever. It's just a level, are you worried that I will tell others?"

It's just a level...

There was nothing wrong with Dewan's idea.

This would be true for others, but You Chen had to be more vigilant in this regard.

It was not bad to jump from level 48 to level 54. No one knew when Youchen reached level 50 before.

But if after two or three years, his strength jumps to level 60, anyone will be able to notice that something is wrong.

"It seems that the practice of this Breath-Retaining Technique needs to be taken more seriously. If you have no choice, use that flash of inspiration."

You Chen thought silently in his heart.

But he said, "The most confidential measure in the world is that no one else knows it except yourself. The second is that even if the people who know it know it, they won't say it out loud. Diwan, be careful that there are ears on the other side of the wall. I'm not afraid of you knowing it, what if the person who is staring at me hides some soul skills or means that can eavesdrop on me..."

"Okay, okay, I'll pay attention."

Diwan had an expression of "What the hell are you talking about?" on his face, but he also knew You Chen's character. Even though he didn't understand it, he remembered it in his heart.

He immediately said, "Anyway, it's done. You want to go to Nottingham in Fastino, right? I don't know how long it will take you to get there by yourself. Can I take you there?"

You Chen was about to agree.

Suddenly, there was a violent earthquake and the terrifying roars of beasts seemed to resound throughout the forest. The noisy sounds of countless birds and beasts fleeing and running were heard everywhere.

Di Wan's face suddenly changed. He didn't bother to chat with You Chen. He grabbed him and took off quickly.

"What's going on? Have the spirit beasts in this forest gone crazy? Could it be that the Wind Summoner we just killed has some big guy backing him up?"

"No, you're overthinking it, Diwan. I guarantee on my reputation as a master of theory that there is absolutely no connection between the two."

While responding to Diwan's complaints, You Chen silently turned around and looked in the direction of the source of the beast's roar.

Thinking of some key information, You Chen's eyes sparkled: "Could it be that guy? What a coincidence, today?"

With Diwan's speed, it took only two hours to fly out of the Star Forest.

Just when Diwan was about to continue flying westward and take Youchen with him, Youchen finally spoke.

"Devan, this is it."

"Hmm? We have just entered the territory of the Kingdom of Barak. We are still far from Phanos."

"Yes."

I don't understand what's wrong with You Chen.

But Diwan is not a meddlesome person - this is also the reason why You Chen loves to order him around.

Anyway, You Chen often has seizures, so Diwan chooses to attribute all the things he can't understand to the idea that "maybe this is what genius scholars are like."

He put You Chen down very readily and asked, "I plan to stay in Wuhun City for a while. Is there any message you want me to pass on to your pretty maid?"

At the end of his speech, Diwan whistled at Youchen in a naughty way. His eyes were full of teasing.

You Chen completely ignored Diwan's hint and said in a businesslike tone, "I want to collect data on the age of the first few soul rings of the soul masters who have used whale glue in recent years. Well, it would be best if I could also have their physical and mental data at that time."

As a young man who came from the information technology era of the 21st century, how could You Chen not pay attention to soul guides after coming to Douluo?

At that time, in order to study the concept of the three elements of essence, energy and spirit, You Chen developed a soul guide device several years in advance that could more accurately measure and collect soul master data.
