Douluo: The Peerless King of Beast Tamers

Chapter 264 God-level Second Awakening?

Du Busi and Zhou Sichen share the same original martial soul and have both undergone a second awakening at the gold level. This shared experience allows Du Busi to understand the unparalleled power of the special ability of Dharma Body and Heaven more deeply than anyone else.

In the world of martial spirits, a second awakening of a martial spirit below the gold level will not give rise to special abilities.

Typically, the color of the martial soul part corresponds to the level of the second awakening, and everything is quite standard, with the only difference being the degree of power enhancement.

However, the Gold-level Second Awakening is completely different and stands out as particularly special.

Once awakened, the Soul Master's strength will increase by at least 100%, which is already a terrifying increase.

But more importantly, during the second awakening at the Gold level, special abilities will awaken in the corresponding parts, which is its most unique and valuable feature.

Furthermore, it's important to know that it's not only the entire physical body that can achieve a Gold-level second awakening; this is closely related to the Soul Master's own talent.

Throughout the long and rich history of the Body Sect, there have been instances of Gold-level secondary awakenings, such as Heart Martial Soul, Brain Martial Soul, Eye Martial Soul, and Left Hand Martial Soul. Each such awakening has left a significant mark on the sect's history.

The boost to a Soul Master's strength from a Gold-level second awakening ranges from 100% to 300%, and the root cause of this difference lies in the different parts of the second awakening site.

Taking the second awakening of the heart-based martial soul as an example, its maximum amplification can reach 280%. The surging vitality and powerful strength enhancement are enough to transform the awakened person.

The highest recorded increase in power for the Brain Martial Soul is 250%. Its super-strong mental strength and thinking ability allow Soul Masters to gain the upper hand in battle and perceive every weakness of their opponents.

But regardless of the increase in value, the most important special ability of the Gold-level Second Awakening is the key factor that truly distinguishes it from other levels of Second Awakening.

Because the power boost from a Gold-level second awakening can be stacked with special abilities, this means that a Soul Master's power will increase exponentially.

The special ability of the Dharma Body that Poison Never Dies possesses is to grow to enormous size.

When he unleashed this ability, his body continued to expand, as if a moving mountain had risen from the ground.

After growing to gigantic size, his various stats, such as strength, speed, and defense, will increase exponentially, instantly transforming him into a true humanoid beast with earth-shattering power in every move.

On this basis, combined with the 300% increase in strength brought by the Gold-level Second Awakening, this powerful strength is far beyond what Silver-level or Bronze-level Second Awakening Soul Masters can match.

This is like this: three times one hundred kilograms is only three hundred kilograms, while three times one thousand kilograms soars to three thousand kilograms.

Although both are second-stage awakenings, the difference between them is more than tenfold, meaning they are no longer on the same level, and the leap in strength is on a completely different level.

This is why Du Bu Si is so eager for Zhou Si Chen's awakening.

He secretly wondered what a shocking scene it would be if Zhou Sichen's soul power could also be sublimated through this opportunity.

After all, in the long history of the Body Sect, there has never been a precedent of using the soul as a martial soul, so Du Busi can only guess based on his imagination.

However, he was well aware of the amplification effect of the Dharma Body on strength. After all, he himself could use the Dharma Body plus the second awakening of the Gold level to compete with the level 99 peerless Douluo who stood at the peak of Douluo Continent.

Level 99 and Level 98 may seem like only one level apart, but the difference between them is like an insurmountable chasm.

What is meant by a peerless Douluo? It means being unparalleled in the world and invincible. Only those who reach such a level can be honored as a peerless Douluo.

It is no exaggeration to say that, apart from those who have extraordinary opportunities and are cheat-like, there are no exceptions.

Only a level 98 Soul Master who has undergone a second awakening of their Gold-level Martial Soul has the potential to contend with a level 99 Peerless Douluo.

If Du Busi can break through the bottleneck and advance to level 99, and steadily stabilize his realm, at this unparalleled level 99, with the terrifying boost from the Dharma Body and the second awakening of the Gold level, it will be as easy for him to surpass the few other strong individuals as eating and drinking.

Then look at Di Tian, ​​who is revered as the Beast God. Why is he called the Beast God, and not the Beast King or Beast Emperor?
The reason is that his strength has transcended the normal level 99 and reached a height that is awe-inspiring.

Even someone as powerful as Mu En could only temporarily intimidate his opponent by relying on the Sea God's Light, a cheat that didn't originate from the Douluo Continent.

Without the Light of the Sea God, given Moon's current state, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a level 99 goalkeeper.

If Poison Undying reaches level 99, he might become the only top-tier soul master among humans who doesn't rely on the special cheat of the Sea God's Light, yet still has the potential to reach the terrifying level of Di Tian.

This unique potential and possibility is precisely the fundamental reason why the original martial soul is considered to be exceptionally gifted.

At this moment, Zhou Sichen's special status is even greater than that of Du Busi.

He exuded a mysterious aura. In addition to possessing the same original martial soul as Du Bu Si and the powerful strength brought by the second awakening of the gold level, he also had a very special soul power.

It is no exaggeration to say that Zhou Sichen's original martial soul is the most unique and powerful one in history, surpassing even the original martial soul of the sect leader, Du Busi.

After all, Zhou Sichen's martial spirit includes a soul, while the one that cannot be killed by poison does not. This seemingly subtle difference may actually contain a world of difference in potential.

Faced with the expectant gaze of the Poison Immortal and the trembling bodies of the three ferocious beasts due to shock, Zhou Sichen slowly shook his head.

Poison-Free was taken aback, his face full of confusion, and he wondered to himself: No, what does shaking his head mean?
His anticipation was instantly replaced by doubt.

Zhou Sichen sighed softly, a sigh that seemed to carry a hint of helplessness and confusion, and slowly said:
"Sect Master, I do feel that my soul has undergone a special change, but it seems that it has not yet reached a certain threshold, that is, it has not fully awakened."

Hearing this, Du Busi was not discouraged. His years of experience and deep understanding of martial spirits allowed him to quickly calm down and begin to analyze seriously: "Could it be related to the special ability of your right eye?"

As he spoke, he stroked his chin, his eyes revealing a thoughtful glint.

In the previous month, Zhou Sichen did not deliberately retain the ability to display the Eye of Soul and Eye of Life in order to ensure that his second awakening would not be affected.

These two special abilities, as part of the original martial soul, were presented to everyone without reservation.

Therefore, Poison Undying was fully aware of the special features of his Soul Eye.

Moreover, Du Bu Si had solemnly told Zhou Si Chen that while the Gold-level Second Awakening was incredibly powerful, overuse would come at a price. That price might be the depletion of life force, or even the potential hidden deep within the body. Every instance of overuse could sow the seeds of future problems.

At that time, Zhou Sichen responded that poison would not kill, and if it only consumed life force, his Eye of Life could replenish the consumed part.

One positive and one negative, like weights on both sides of a scale, have achieved a delicate balance, appearing as if there were no cost involved.

Upon hearing this, Du Bu Si was filled with envy. For a moment, he almost sincerely wanted to become sworn brothers with Zhou Si Chen.

After all, who wouldn't want to have unlimited trump cards and be able to unleash their full power without any worries in battle?

Having abilities like Zhou Sichen means having endless stamina in battle, something every Soul Master dreams of.

So when he heard Zhou Sichen's words, Du Busi immediately guessed that the reason why Zhou Sichen's soul had not been fully awakened was because the Eye of the Soul had already overdrawn its ability to awaken the soul.

This conjecture seems reasonable, since the powerful abilities displayed by the Eye of the Soul may have already consumed the energy required for the awakening of the soul.

Zhou Sichen felt there was some truth to the speculation that he couldn't be poisoned, but deep down he always felt that things weren't that simple.

After all, he knew his own martial soul better than anyone else.

The origin of the Eye of the Soul is mainly due to the Dew of Longing for Autumn Water that he consumed. Of course, this is also closely related to the fact that his martial soul itself contains a soul.

Now, his Soul Eye has also been enhanced to a certain extent because he has completed the second awakening of the Gold level.

However, he was quite certain that this had no direct connection with a secondary awakening or elevation at the soul level.

After much deliberation, a bold conjecture suddenly flashed through Zhou Sichen's mind: "Sect Master, do you think it's possible... beyond the second awakening of a Gold-level Body Martial Soul, there's another possibility? For example... a God-level?"

Upon hearing Zhou Sichen's words, the three ferocious beasts instantly fell silent. Their eyes widened, their faces filled with disbelief.

A second awakening at the Gold level is already strong enough to rival the strength of a God-level Martial Soul, right?

Is there a God-level level above the Gold level?
This completely overturned their understanding of the limits of martial spirits.

They thought to themselves: Are you trying to go to heaven?
We admit you're incredibly talented, but try not to push your luck too far, or I'll be fucking envious!
However, Poison Undying did not show the same strong reaction as the three ferocious beasts.

He simply stood there quietly, his brow furrowed, lost in deep silence.

Countless thoughts were churning in his mind at this moment. Although Zhou Sichen's conjecture was bold, it was not entirely impossible.

After all, the world of martial spirits is so vast, who can say that there are no new realms waiting to be discovered beyond the known limits?

Seeing Poison Undying fall silent, looking thoughtful, the three ferocious beasts, whose hearts were originally restless, suddenly calmed down as if they had been frozen in place.

They looked at each other, and a question arose in their minds: Surely there really isn't such an outrageous thing as a god-level awakening?
Just thinking about that mysterious and unknown realm sent chills down the spines of these ferocious beasts who had been fighting and learning in the world of soul beasts for many years.

Gold-level second awakening is already strong enough, what's the point of having a god-level second awakening?
Do we even want these soul beasts to live?!
Zhou Sichen had been paying close attention to Du Busi's expression. Seeing his serious expression, Zhou Sichen's conviction in his bold conjecture grew even stronger.

He pondered to himself, since he could truly feel that the second awakening of the Gold level was not the final destination.

Doesn't this just prove that there is indeed a possibility of further breakthroughs?
Even though he might not have fully adapted to the powerful abilities brought by the second awakening of the Gold level yet, and his strength had not yet reached its peak, this would not affect Zhou Sichen's boundless expectations for the future.

After a long silence, Poison Undying slowly spoke: "The so-called second awakening of a god-level being currently only exists in theory."

"From the second awakening of the Black Iron level all the way to the second awakening of the Gold level, these four stages represent a terrifying increase in strength for a Soul Master with a main body Martial Soul."

“Each stage of awakening is a transformation, a challenge and breakthrough to one’s own limits.”

"If a so-called second awakening of a god-level being were to actually occur, as the sect's seniors had anticipated, it would be an incredibly terrifying transformation."

"To truly achieve a state without any side effects, and to increase the strength of the original spirit master exponentially, would be a power capable of overturning the entire power structure of the Douluo Continent!" Poison Undying's words contained both longing for that powerful force and a hint of helplessness at its unattainability.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Sichen's eyes lit up instantly, filled with curiosity and excitement, and he couldn't wait to ask:
"So, through the countless years of relentless research by the Body Sect, the possibility of a second awakening at the god level truly exists, right?"

Du Busi nodded and replied affirmatively, "That's right. However, according to the speculation of the sect's predecessors, to reach the so-called level of god-level second awakening, one's own martial soul master's cultivation must at least reach the level of a peerless Douluo at level ninety-nine."

At this point, Du Busi couldn't help but sigh, a sigh filled with the hardships and helplessness of the path of cultivation.

"As you know, after a Soul Master reaches level 90, each subsequent level becomes increasingly difficult. Although the original Martial Soul is uniquely endowed with unparalleled potential, the later the stage, the more time and effort are required for cultivation. Every step forward comes at a price that is unimaginable to ordinary people."

Poison Undying's tone carried a hint of vicissitude as he recalled his cultivation journey over the years, the joys and sorrows of which only he truly understood.

"I am over two hundred years old this year. Although it is not impossible to reach level 99, I estimate that it will take at least five to ten years before I can hope to break through."

"And there are many variables involved; a slight misstep could lead to failure." A resolute look appeared in Du Bu Si's eyes. Even though the road ahead was long and fraught with difficulties, he had never given up on his pursuit of a higher realm.

"If I can reach level ninety-nine in the future, I might be able to try to touch the divine second awakening that our predecessors talked about. That will be my lifelong dream, and also the long-cherished wish of countless predecessors of the Body Sect." As Poison Undying spoke, he turned his gaze to Zhou Sichen, his eyes full of expectation and trust.

"But you are different. Both of your martial souls are among the best in the world. With your unique talent and unparalleled potential, your future achievements and potential will surpass mine."

"Perhaps you are the first in the sect to achieve the legendary second awakening of a god. You are the hope of the Body Sect, the key to breaking the existing pattern and reaching a higher peak." Poison Undying's words were full of encouragement and affirmation, as if he saw the glorious future of the Body Sect in Zhou Sichen.

Hearing Du Bu Si's words, Zhou Si Chen revealed a confident smile, a smile as warm as the spring sun, full of vitality and strength:
"Sect Master, I believe I can do it. I will not let you down, nor will I let down the Body Sect's cultivation of me."

"I will definitely strive towards the goal of a second god-level awakening, and make the Body Sect shine the brightest on the Douluo Continent!"
