Douluo: On Becoming a God through Science

This is an innovation of the genetic concept proposed in "The Bottleneck of Soul Masters and the Evolution Brought by Soul Rings", and it is also the first time that he truly unveiled the curiosity of traveling through the world.

"In my guess, the things that determine the inheritance of a spirit master's martial spirit and the things that support the structure and performance of life are what I call genetic information.

The genetic information engraved in the blood, I call it 'genes'... The reason why the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex is known as the world's number one beast spirit is because their 'genes' have been stable to the point where they start with high-level spirits ~ top-level spirits. If they can steadily strengthen the Nine Rings to the Titled Douluo, they can basically have super spirit strength.

But the reality is more than that. It's just that 'genetic information that exists in the bloodline', that is, genes, cannot verify the birth of most weapon spirits! Therefore, from now on, I put forward the second concept - 'meme'!

Memes are the opposite of genes. If genes are genetic information that exists in the medium of a real substance like blood, then memes are genetic information that exists in the medium of a non-real spiritual substance like "will, thought, spirit, and knowledge." Matter corresponds to blood, which corresponds to genes, and soul corresponds to spirit, which corresponds to memes!

The reason why products of human civilization such as hammers and scissors can become the martial spirits of spirit masters is that their knowledge and beliefs have been passed down as memes! It is their forging skills and cutting skills that have been sublimated into martial spirits! ..."

This is the concept and conjecture proposed by You Chen when he was 25 years old.

Inferring from the birth of weapon spirits, the genetic information of Douluo Continent includes not only genes but also memes.

Memes can be used as genetic information storage, which seems to be a great discovery, but... what can we do with this knowledge? What changes can it bring to the world?

No! This is by no means a meaningless discovery of only theoretical value!

This discovery means that in this world, things like will, thought, spirit and knowledge can have a direct impact on life!

You Chen began to study the fact that the first few spirit skills of the Evil-Eyed White Tiger, Netherworld Spirit Cat, and Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, several martial spirits that have been passed down for many years, are exactly the same.

So, when he was 28 years old, "Soul Ring Selection II: The Influence of Human Intelligence and Subjective Consciousness on Soul Rings" was released.

The most important success among them is the "self-imagined soul skills".

It is precisely because of the contribution of this research that You Chen was able to rely on the adaptive spirit ring bestowed by the system. With the help of the absolutely pure spirit ring, the best carrier of ideas, he was able to evolve his martial soul into a Star Skeleton Dragon!

In fact, this can be said to be just a by-product of the study of "memes".

Perhaps Youchen's research intentions cannot be said to be absolutely pure, and it cannot be ruled out that he desires power during this process...

But in the end, he tried his best and devoted most of his life to it.

At the age of 29, the book "The Essence of Martial Soul" was banned.

But You Chen did not stop exploring his martial soul.

You Chen, 38 years old, now has very different ideas from what he had more than ten years ago.

He even denied some of his own past research views.

For example, regarding the birth of martial souls, he is now more inclined to believe that the birth of all martial souls initially comes from "memes", and "genes" are just a more stable inheritance thereafter.

Take the Clear Sky Hammer as an example. Maybe it was born as a meme in the beginning, but in the process of inheritance and gradually becoming stable, it may really become a part of the soul master's bloodline and genes!

The difference between beast martial spirits and weapon martial spirits may not be the difference between genetic inheritance and memetic inheritance, but the difference that arises from the fact that humans initially yearn for the powerful bloodline of soul beasts and the powerful skills and equipment created.

Under the influence of the world's rules, human thoughts and beliefs have penetrated the long river of time and created a miracle called martial spirit.

People in the past did not know the power of thought, but they still never stopped thinking.

Perhaps, You Chen still cannot prove that martial souls only originated from memes, but it is enough to prove the influence of memes, that is, human will, on martial souls.

When it comes to understanding the nature of martial spirits, there is actually a huge difference between “knowing” and “not knowing”.

This is the "activeness of consciousness". Consciousness can not only reflect the external phenomena of things, but also grasp the essence and laws of things.

For a fantasy world that can interfere with phenomena with the mind, simply knowing it is an extremely great power.

Then, this is the answer Youchen came up with -

"Everything is inevitable for the strongest spirit master! He can even create his own spirit - Stardust Dragon, come out!"

You Chen, whose whole body was emitting powerful soul fluctuations, suddenly opened his eyes and let out a roar like thunder!

Simply imagining cannot make the martial soul evolve.

Because if he could achieve this with just pure imagination, since You Chen has surpassed the thinking of all soul masters in the world, he would not need to be so distressed.

However, if we add the Seven-Ring Soul Saint stage, what about the enormous energy generated when the martial soul breaks free from its shackles and sublimates?

The Star Skeleton Dragon Martial Soul that was emitting starlight underwent a drastic change, and it moved closer, step by step, to the perfect form of the Stardust Dragon that You Chen had imagined!

"The gathered wishes will become a new shining star, a shining path - be born!"

The blood-colored soul ring began to spin at high speed.

"Stardust Dragon!"

In an instant, the martial spirit changed in the wind...

The perfect energy evolution ratio constructed by the spirit rings of the second life, the power of martial soul sublimation brought by the seventh ring of one hundred thousand years, and the powerful driving force of consciousness that has been working hard for a goal for 33 years, the driving force called obsession with writing wishes... the three overlap at this moment!

He has been practicing since he was 6 years old, from simply seeking a path to become stronger, to realizing the truth about the martial soul, and moving forward towards his goal step by step without wavering, going through countless hardships and countless days and nights of hard work!

Finally...the Stardust Dragon, soaring in the sky!

(Long Yan's smile.jpg)

……

Even if he was as steady as a speck of dust, he would excitedly raise the flag at this moment!

I flew happily in the sky for most of the day.

"This speed!"

After trying acceleration and deceleration in succession, and estimating the time required to accelerate to the maximum speed and the difficulty of forcibly stopping from the highest speed, You Chen looked excited.

If he had another fierce battle with Feng Zhenglong, You Chen would never fall into the predicament of being forcibly thrown away like before!

There is no doubt that in terms of speed alone, his Stardust Dragon Martial Spirit already possesses super performance, no... even extraordinary performance!

It's not just the speed, You Chen can feel that after his martial spirit possessed him, all his physical abilities have been greatly improved!

Compared to before, this is definitely an unimaginable qualitative change!

The amplification effect of martial soul possession is affected by the soul power strength, that is, the level. But before, because You Chen's own physical fitness was too exaggerated, even though there was a 30-level soul power gap between his first and second lives, he didn't feel much difference.

But now it’s different. If I switch back to my second life, even if I eliminate the impact of the extra hundred thousand year soul ring, all enhancements will decline significantly.

Of course, this is probably also because after the soul power level breaks through to the Soul Saint stage, the soul power strength also undergoes a qualitative change.

But the most important thing is indeed the improvement of the quality of martial soul!

"I originally thought that even if it had completed its evolution, the Stardust Dragon Spirit would at most be of quasi-super quality, which is the same level as Qingluan Douluo's Qingluan Spirit. But now... there is no doubt about it! This is... a super spirit!"

Although he has not had time to calculate the specific value, You Chen can be sure that the Stardust Dragon is definitely a super martial spirit!

In fact, the super martial soul, in terms of the level of the martial soul's original power alone, is already the highest level in the world!

The god-level martial soul, although it looks different in name, would be one level higher than the super martial soul, but in fact it is not.

The so-called god-level martial soul can be simply understood as a super martial soul that has been developed to the extreme!

If you read the original novel, you will know that before those soul masters became gods, the quality of their martial souls was at most super level. The reason why people in later generations called their martial souls god-level martial souls is more of a kind of belief or a blessing of ancestor worship!

However, You Chen was able to truly confirm this through observing his eldest disciple.

Even after Qian Renxue absorbed the first three rings, the original power of her martial soul did not increase at all. In other words... her martial soul had reached the end of its evolution as soon as it was born.

To gradually grow from a pair of wings to three pairs of wings is not because of insufficient original power, but simply requires higher intensity soul power support.

Being born at the top is definitely an advantage, but on the other hand it also reduces the possibility of continuing to dig deeper.

Perhaps growing from weakness, this angel spirit could continue to evolve and become stronger, but at least Qian Renxue no longer has this possibility.

Just like the "God-granted Level 10 Soul Power" she received, her martial soul is also a fixed martial soul directly bestowed by the gods.

In a sense, Qian Renxue could be said to be born to become an angel god...

"So, how can I continue to improve?"

Even You Chen was a little confused about the direction of improving his Stardust Dragon Martial Spirit at this moment.

In his original expectation, the Stardust Dragon was only a top-level martial spirit. It would reach the super level only if it continued to evolve and became a Meteor Dragon. Then, it would go one step further and become the final form of other Stardust Dragons such as the Sky-flowing Star Dragon or the Cosmic Shining Edge Dragon. This could be called the ultimate super martial spirit, or a god-level martial spirit.

but now?

The Stardust Dragon is already a super martial spirit. Even if it can evolve again, if it evolves again, it will probably reach the limit of the martial spirits in this world and this universe.

"In short, don't worry, there's still plenty of time."

You Chen's eyes quickly regained their firmness.

If you don’t understand, just keep researching!

Isn't this how he has always been?

You Chen raised his hand slightly, and a ball of brilliant soul power condensed in his hand.

The biggest change after the evolution of the martial soul is not the speed, but... energy!

He did not actively control it, but the wind power, star power and divine power began to merge naturally. Now this merged power should be called - Stardust Power!

You Chen raised his head quietly, and in just a moment, the power of stardust condensed into shape, bursting out at an extremely terrifying speed, shooting straight towards a mountain not far away.

In an instant, the top of the mountain turned into nothingness.

The self-created soul skill, Sonic Shooting, has been successful.

There was a slight smoke coming out of You Chen's kiss. It was obvious that this move was also quite a burden on him, and it was still a powerful move that could not be released casually.

The initial shooting speed of sound already possesses the speed of a wind dragon's roar and the power of a star dragon's roar.

After every soul master completes the sublimation of his martial soul to the Soul Saint stage, his control over the origin of his martial soul will be greatly enhanced. Even if he knew nothing about this before, he can successfully reach the entry level.

The same goes for You Chen. If he was only in the "early spiritual realm" before, now he has at least progressed to the "middle spiritual realm", which is equivalent to the results of using "Illuminating the Origin" multiple times at one time.

Without actually trying it, You Chen could vaguely feel that the duration of his explosion after entering the spiritual realm had increased significantly, while the time of weakness had also been greatly shortened.

"With my current level of control over the power of my martial soul, it probably won't take much time to perfect the speed of fire. By then, it will be at least a soul skill of the strength of a hundred thousand years!"

And it is an instant one hundred thousand year soul skill!

You can imagine how powerful it is.

You Chen had just reached the Soul Saint realm, and his strength had greatly increased. He was firmly at the Titled Douluo level. When he burst out with all his strength, he was not afraid of even a Super Douluo.

And after he has digested it for a while and consolidated his growth in all aspects, his strength will be able to grow slightly!

The first one is "The Divine Elephant Prison-Suppressing Power"!

After this life level leap, You Chen felt that the difficulty of cultivation was greatly reduced.

The absorption of two hundred thousand year soul bones had greatly strengthened his foundation, especially the Blue Silver Emperor soul bone of the life system, which was no less than several times of changing tendons and marrow.

But this time, the breakthrough, perhaps because of the evolution of the martial soul, the difficulty reduction is more obvious!

No, it's not just because of this! Also, the soul power level and physical quality are gradually approaching!

In the original three elements of spirit, energy and spirit, You Chen's soul power has always been a drag, but now... with the previous accumulation and the 78-year soul ring this time, You Chen's soul power level has been raised to level in one fell swoop! It is not far from the physical body!

The three elements of essence, energy and spirit complement each other. When the gap between the three is so close, the speed of cultivation will naturally be increased!

You Chen felt that it would only take him three years at most to fully complete the entry-level Giant Elephant Realm, which he had only halfway completed!

If one cultivates the Divine Elephant Prison-Suppressing Power to perfection alone, his physical strength will be comparable to that of a Titled Douluo, not to mention that You Chen also has a number of spirit rings and spirit bones?

You Chen had a premonition that when the 840 million particles in his body contained the illusory power of the giant elephant, his physical fitness would probably directly reach the Super Douluo level!

After talking about soul power and physical fitness, how can we not mention that You Chen is currently definitely the strongest in terms of mental power?

The existence of all soul cores can increase the strength of soul power and the speed of soul power recovery, but different types of soul cores also have their own special properties.

Just like when Youchen condensed his spiritual soul core, the strength of his spiritual power would be increased, and most importantly... his recovery ability would also increase dramatically! Explosively! Strongly!

Just like soul power, as long as the reserves are maintained above 80%, the recovery speed will be a hundred times faster than before!

Even if it is consumed to 50%, the recovery speed can be maintained ten times faster than before!

This means... You Chen can completely use the Soul-Shocking Technique that he previously used as his trump card as a normal means!

For those whose mental strength is weaker than Lingyuan Realm, he can use any Soul-Shocking Technique to freeze the opponent without any scruples, and then kill him instantly!

And he himself will hardly consume any energy!

In addition, You Chen's Soul-Shocking Technique is already effective against most Titled Douluo masters in the Lingyuan Realm.

Not only because of his breakthrough in spiritual realm, but also because...

At the moment when he used the Soul-Shocking Technique to cause Feng Zhenglong's energy to backfire and kill him, his Soul-Shocking Technique naturally reached the state of perfection!

As the first truly complete systematic practice, You Chen easily noticed the difference between perfection and before perfection.

That feeling... is like facing a blank scroll that you can paint on at will.
