Douluo: Peerless Light...

Chapter 235: The secret that is not passed on?

Jing Hongchen hurriedly checked the soul guide device drawings in the storage soul guide device and found a complete set of drawings of the soul guide armor worn by Arthas. He quickly took out the drawings of the two-way nine-transformation soul instrument and checked it.

A glance revealed a flash of amazement in his eyes.

Then he was stunned.

The core material is the spine of the soul beast silver wolf. No wonder the finished product attached to the spine behind Arthas has many bulges. It turns out that it is modified from the spine of the silver wolf. When Arthas asked him for the spine material of the ten thousand year old silver wolf, he was still wondering about its purpose.

The attribute of the silver wolf is chaos. After ten thousand years of cultivation, it has the energy to control multiple elements. As the most important bone part of the body, the spine has similar characteristics. This is easy to understand. However, the treatment method requires the use of the secret method of Arthas.

And this is a secret that is not passed on!
In other words, the core of this two-way nine-transformation soul ritual still has to be made by Arthas, damn it!
Jing Hongchen's face was tangled, but it was difficult for him, an outsider, to force the master to hand over the inheritance. Besides, in addition to this special method for processing soul beast bones, all other drawings of Arthas' soul guide armor were given.

"Now it seems that Arthas's teacher has also conducted in-depth research on the corpses of various soul beasts." Jing Hongchen sighed. He had witnessed Arthas's dissection technique with his own eyes. Now it seems that Arthas inherited not only the human dissection skills, but also the soul beast dissection and the special processing skills for various organs of the soul beast's body, and has already combined them with soul guides.

This also shows that Arthas’ teacher is also a master of soul guides, but his research direction is not very mainstream.

He shook his head and continued to look at the contents of the scroll.

Balancing attributes with the help of the Nine-Transformation Soul Instrument is only an initial transition. What one ultimately wants to achieve is absolute control over the dual attributes of ice and fire in one's body, and to be able to directly use the martial soul to switch the soul power attributes back and forth, in order to achieve the purpose of balancing the attributes in the body. This is the fundamental solution.

This involves the circulation of soul power in the body, and may require slight changes to the previous soul power circulation route.

Below is a detailed illustration of the human body's meridians.

As for how to change the running route, Arthas said that he couldn't be sure because he didn't know what the current running route of his granddaughter's soul power was, including the imbalance of attributes, so he couldn't make the right adjustments.

Moreover, there are always risks in relying on external forces for adjustments.

It is recommended to make a two-way nine-transformation soul instrument to make the transition. In the process, you can experience your own martial soul and the operation of your soul power in your body, slowly find the balance point of soul power switching, and then find out the rules, make changes step by step, and build the soul power cycle that suits you best. Although it is a bit of a test of your understanding, it is indeed the most suitable for you and the solution with the least risk.

It is indeed the most suitable solution, but it seems a bit difficult!
Jing Hongchen had a complicated expression. He was not very confident in his granddaughter's comprehension. The concept that Arthas talked about was almost asking his granddaughter to create a new advanced meditation method. This was not something that ordinary people could do, and even he did not have the confidence.

"Oh, but this is the only way for now." He sighed, feeling helpless.

"Then I'll show Arthas the route of Xiao Meng's soul power, and check the balance of her martial soul attributes, and see if Arthas can give me some suggestions. It would be great if it can help Xiao Meng avoid some detours and reduce risks."

Thinking this, he continued to read on.

The manufacturing method of the two-way nine-transformation soul instrument is on the blueprint. As for the conversion core, in addition to the chaos silver metal, a silver wolf spine is also needed. And to be on the safe side, it is best to find a piece from a ten thousand year old Silver Moon Wolf King.

Then give it to Arthas to process it with secret methods and put it in and assemble it.

Seeing this, the content of the scroll came to an end. Jing Hongchen did not delay and took out the drawings in the soul guide device and looked at them one by one. The more he looked, the more amazed he was. When he saw the drawings of the multifunctional soul guide tentacles, his eyes were even more amazed, and then he frowned slightly.

According to the description, in order to skillfully control the tentacles, one needs to have excellent mental strength and soul power control.

Although Arthas is not a spiritual attribute, he can integrate the spirit ring into his body, which not only increases his physical body, but also his spiritual power. Therefore, Arthas's spiritual power is definitely not bad. This point can be guessed. It is not surprising that he can control eight tentacles at the same time and do it as if he were using his arms.

As for his granddaughter, I’m afraid she is not able to achieve the same level yet.

However, his grandson Xiao Hongchen, relying on his martial arts talent, should be able to skillfully control many roots at the same time.

Of course, it is not the quantity of soldiers that matters but their quality, and quantity is not everything.

He planned to make a set for each of his grandchildren. As for the exact number of tentacles, it would take testing to find out. As for the other people in the academy, it was not easy to find a ten-thousand-year-old Silver Moon Wolf King, not to mention that it required a good mental strength. Not everyone was qualified to use the soul-guided tentacles.

However, genuine soul guide tentacles are difficult to popularize, and it is also good to reduce the configuration. Who says that it must be able to switch multiple attributes? As for the soul guide armor that can reduce some configurations for mass production and has the value of further research and improvement, he thinks it is very attractive!

Thinking this, he stood up and walked out of the office, calling a tutor to notify the meeting.

Soon, all the ninth-level soul masters arrived at the Mingde Hall conference room.

"This is the complete set of drawings of the soul guide battle armor that Arthas gave me. He called it Doukai. Let's take a look."

Jing Hongchen said this, using the soul guide to project the contents of the drawing onto the screen.

"Fighting Kai? This is very consistent with the fighting style of that kid Arthas." A ninth-level soul master couldn't help but laugh. Although he usually looks a little dull, but when he puts on the soul guide armor and fights on the field, Arthas is extremely violent.

A true battle maniac!
The word "fight" is very appropriate.

Afterwards, they all showed expressions of surprise.

"Master, this set of Doukai is of great research value." The 19th-level soul master said solemnly, "Maybe it can be combined with Zero."

Jing Hongchen nodded, "I think so too, so I suggest that Arthas be included in the plan."

"Not only because of his research talent, but also because of his mind manipulation ability."

"In addition, there is his contribution and identity this time."

"Based on this set of blueprints, Arthas's personal ability is definitely no problem. As for his identity and background, Arthas is an orphan with no power behind him. Now that he has left Shrek Academy to join our Mingde Hall, he has completely severed his relationship with Shrek Academy and may even be hated. As a top student of Shrek Academy, publicly joining Mingde Hall is not a good start."

"After learning of this behavior, the royal families of the three former empires will no longer accept Arthas."

The Level 19 Soul Instructor nodded slightly, "Arthas has no way out now. The only one he can rely on is our academy."

“If the royal families of the three former empires knew that Arthas’ mortal enemy was Dai Hao, they would probably be even more hostile to our Sun-Moon Empire and would reject Arthas even more, and even feel dissatisfied with Shrek Academy.” Another ninth-level soul instructor followed closely.

"As for whether the top management of Shrek Academy knows Arthas's background, it is not important."

Jing Hongchen's eyes lit up and he smiled, "After the meeting on publicity, I will go to the palace together to report to His Majesty."

"Then I have no objection." The ninth-level soul engineer said with a smile.

"Second." The other participants echoed.

"That's settled then." Jing Hongchen made the decision.

"From today on, Mingde Hall is completely open to Arthas. Although Arthas is only a seventh-level soul mentor now, his pioneering thinking may help Mingde Hall break the existing shackles."

“And this is what I value most about him.”

An old man nodded slightly and said, "I also heard about the battle between Xiaoxiao and Arthas this morning. The suggestion he made after the battle was indeed very imaginative.

"Perhaps it is precisely because of the rich knowledge of soul guides that Mingde Hall has accumulated over the years that subsequent students only know how to study the achievements of their predecessors and have wasted their own innovative thinking. This is also the main reason why all research in Mingde Hall has stagnated."

"As Arthas said, this is a cognitive mental confinement that is difficult to break from the inside out."

"And the outsider Arthas is a great opportunity to break the deadlock." "I agree with this." Someone said in a deep voice, "Now is the time when the academy needs a catfish to stir up the water."

"."

After the meeting, Jing Hongchen immediately left the academy and rushed to the palace to report to the emperor, including the matter of treating his granddaughter.

Because Xu Tianran was currently presiding over the government as the crown prince, he was also present when he arrived and was received by the emperor. After listening to his report, the emperor smiled and said, "Brother Jing, let's do as you say, out of the caution that an emperor should have."

"However, surveillance of Arthas is still necessary."

"Brother Jing, Arthas is not a native of the Sun-Moon Empire after all, and he has only been in our country for a short time. As for personal feelings, he cured Tianran's leg and helped me recover so that I can get out of bed. Tianran and I respect and trust him very much. But for the sake of national interests, as an emperor, I have to be on guard against him for the time being."

"Because he came from the unfathomable Shrek Academy, which has a history of ten thousand years. This alone is enough."

"I understand!" Jing Hongchen said solemnly.

This is also the reason why he is always loyal to His Majesty, because the other party can restrain personal emotions and remain calm, always putting national interests first. It is also for this reason that he did not hesitate even if he was asked to fulfill his promise and go to Shrek Academy as a hostage.

The emperor smiled and continued, "Of course, if Arthas can find a partner of his dreams in the academy, and even have a child, then I will feel more at ease."

"Brother Jing, your little Meng has met Arthas today. What do you think of him?"

"Of course I recognize it very much. Of course, it is currently limited to strength and talent." Jing Hongchen said truthfully.

He didn't object to the emperor's attempt to match up his Xiao Meng with Arthas and use it to tie Arthas to the Sun-Moon Empire. The emperor didn't want to see his subordinates without weaknesses because they were difficult to control.

And the wife and children are undoubtedly the biggest weaknesses.

"Opportunities can be created." The emperor stroked his white beard and said with a smile.

"Brother Jing, although Arthas's suggestion is to let Xiao Meng figure it out on her own, which is safer and more appropriate. But you and I have both seen Arthas's medical skills, why not let Arthas help check her body?"

"Maybe we can get results sooner."

"Of course, this is just a suggestion. You still have to ask Xiao Meng for her opinion on whether you agree or not."

He still respected Jing Hongchen very much. If Meng Hongchen was not happy, he would not mind letting his beloved daughter Xu Tianzhen try.

With Alsace's talents, being his son-in-law was more than enough for him, in his opinion.

If the Sun and Moon Royal Family wants to remain strong, it cannot do without winning over the younger generation of geniuses from outside.

"Your Majesty, I will go and ask when I return." Jing Hongchen nodded.

The emperor smiled and nodded. He could see that Jing Hongchen was also quite satisfied with Arthas.

"Brother Jing, in addition to the rewards you mentioned before, when we go back later, take Tianran over to announce the royal family's reward to Arthas."

"Our Sun Moon Empire never neglects its meritorious officials. Arthas handed over the blueprints of the top soul guide to Mingde Hall, so Mingde Hall should reward him. And my royal family, Arthas, cured Tianran's leg and helped me recuperate, so he should also be rewarded."

"One yard owned by a yard."

As he said that, he turned to look at Xu Tianran, "It's just right, let me take this opportunity to mention the banquet."

"Yes, father!" Xu Tianran stood up and bowed.

After a while, inside Mingde Hall.

"Brother Arthas, welcome to join our Sun-Moon Empire." Xu Tianran said with a smile as soon as they met.

"Greetings, His Royal Highness." Arthas bowed calmly.

"You don't have to be so polite to me." Xu Tianran waved his hand, "Brother Arthas, I'm here to read out the reward from my father to you."

"You cured my leg and helped my father improve his health. My royal family should reward you."

"Otherwise, if I tell you, outsiders will probably blame me for being ungrateful and unfair to my own people."

As he spoke, he pulled out a roll of leather from his soul guide and opened it, saying loudly, "Propagate His Majesty's decree!"

Of course Arthas would not kneel, but would slightly lower his head and bow his body, and do the one-handed chest salute to show respect.

Xu Tianran didn't mind and continued reading, ". I grant you the title of Earl of Alsace."

A lot of rewards were mentioned later, including the imperial mansion, maids, money, etc., and finally a thousand-year-old treasure from heaven and earth.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Alsace accepted it calmly. Since he had joined the Sun-Moon Empire, he couldn't avoid it. If he refused to accept it, it would only make the Sun-Moon Imperial Family wary of him, which would be detrimental to his subsequent undercover work.

If it affects his ability to seize Mingdetang's soul guide technology, the loss will be huge.

He had made a lot of money by repurchasing Mingdetang Technology before, and all the letters he received were full of praise for him, encouraging him to keep up the good work.

You know what, he benefits a lot from it and is now working very hard!

Xu Tianran smiled, took out a blueprint from his soul guide and handed it over along with the imperial edict, and continued, "Brother Arthas, this is a reward from my father and the royal family, not from me."

"I know that you like to study soul guides and are good at close combat, so I privately asked my connections to get you a blueprint for a close combat soul guide. This is a soul guide that is not even on record at Mingde Hall."

“I hope this can bring you some inspiration.”

Arthas, who was obsessed with soul guides, immediately pretended to be enlightened and forced a smile on his face.

"Thank you, Brother Xu!"

The tone became much more friendly.

Xu Tianran's smile suddenly widened, and he said amiably, "This is what we should do."

"Also, I will never break my promise to you when that day comes."

Arthas nodded slightly, reached out to take the drawings and the imperial edict, and put them into the soul guide.

Only then did Xu Tianran turn around and look at Jing Hongchen.
