Douluo: I am a biologist, awakening the weapon spirit?

Chapter 147 Pioneer
Crack!

A dazzling flash of lightning illuminated the astonished expressions on their faces.

"Is this... going to succeed?" Dugu Bo said, dumbfounded.

To be honest, he didn't really have high hopes for this.

After all, based on his decades-long understanding, the idea of ​​artificial soul bones was simply too fantastical.

If it had been someone else who brought it up instead of Chen Feng, Dugu Bo Niao wouldn't have paid any attention.

It was only after Chen Feng said this that Dugu Bo decided to give it a try and help out.

The previous experiment, which had yielded no results, failed at first glance, but the appearance of this strange phenomenon clearly indicates that there will be some success.

Surely nothing will simply happen after the lightning flashes, right?

Xiao Wu stared intently at the dazzling ball of light, eagerly anticipating the outcome of the experiment.

This, to some extent, concerns the fate of the entire soul beast population.

When Tang Hao saw the lightning flash, he glanced at Xiao Wu and then looked back at the Blue Silver Emperor not far away.

At this moment, the Blue Silver Emperor was gently swaying its tender branches and leaves, as if in response.

Ah Yin, are you happy about this scene too? Tang Hao thought to himself.

"How are you feeling, Xiao San?" Chen Feng asked Tang San beside him.

"It's a bit strenuous, but I can still keep going," Tang San replied, his eyes gleaming with a golden-purple light as he gazed at the ball of lightning in front of him.

"Xiao Feng, shouldn't this one work out?"

"It's still unclear. Don't open the incense... uh, the red wine, before the final result is out." Chen Feng maintained his last bit of caution.

But this caution vanished instantly when the lightning in front of him gradually dissipated, revealing the appearance of the items inside.

"It really worked?" Chen Feng stared blankly at the item in front of him, unsure of how to react.

"Oh my god." Xiao Wu instinctively covered her mouth. "It's actually true!"

"Xiao Feng, you've made history." Tang San lowered his hands, the light in his eyes dimming. "Once again."

"Times have changed," Tang Hao sighed with a complex emotion.

“That’s true.” Dugu Bo nodded, glancing at Chen Feng. “This shouldn’t be the first time, and I don’t think it will be the last.”

What appeared before everyone was no longer the small ball made of Star Soul Mithril, but an item that everyone was very familiar with.

It is mostly bluish-black, but has silver patterns on it, and its shape is about 80% similar to the single horn on the head of the Silver Lightning Flying Serpent.

If this item is indeed a soul bone, then it should undoubtedly be a head soul bone.

"Why?" Chen Feng suddenly asked.

"What?" Tang San looked at him in confusion.

"Why did it change into something else? It was clearly a piece of metal before." After his initial excitement, Chen Feng was filled with bewilderment.

Previously, Star Soul Mithril was a small metal ball, but now, after his series of nonsensical operations, it has become a unicorn-shaped head soul bone.

Is this phenomenon scientific?

What principles does it follow?

Upon hearing Chen Feng's words, Tang Hao stepped forward, took the unicorn horn in his hand, examined it thoroughly, and then weighed it in his hand.

After doing all this, he said:
"It is slightly heavier than the previous small ball, and it is no longer made of metal. It is now undoubtedly a soul bone, and you can't see any trace of the previous small ball."

As an expert in metal forging, Tang Hao's conclusions are naturally very convincing.

"So that means it has completely transformed into another substance?" At this moment, Chen Feng, like Dugu Bo before him, felt as if his worldview was about to collapse.

Although he knew he was in a fantasy world, everything happening before his eyes still felt somewhat absurd to him.

Chen Feng was eager to understand the principle behind this change, otherwise he felt he probably wouldn't be able to sleep well tonight.

"You could say that." Tang Hao handed over the soul bone in his hand.

Chen Feng took it and examined it over and over. He felt that the surface of this soul bone was incredibly warm and smooth, and it seemed to contain a special energy.

When Chen Feng touched it, the energy within seemed to penetrate his body.

"The essence of a soul bone should be a manifestation of energy." Chen Feng made his judgment about soul bones.

In the Douluo Continent, after a Soul Master absorbs a Soul Bone, nothing is left; it only emits light.

There is no smoke or dust, and the soul bone will be completely absorbed into the soul master's body.

This is also one of the bases for Chen Feng's judgment that "soul bones are energy".

However, this soul bone was artificially created by them; its original form was a small metal sphere.

What would happen if this soul bone were absorbed by someone?

"Senior, what do you plan to do with it?" Chen Feng asked, handing the soul bone in his hand to Dugu Bo.

"Why are you asking me?" Dugu Bo asked, somewhat puzzled. "This was made under your guidance."

"I promised you before, senior, that if I created a soul bone, I would give the first one to you to work with," Chen Feng said with a smile.

“This is a soul bone,” Dugu Bo reminded him, “and it’s a soul bone produced by a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast.”

“I know, but since I said it, I have to do it. Besides, the Silver Lightning Flying Serpent was found by you, Senior.” Chen Feng’s voice was very calm.

"Since you insist, it wouldn't be right for me not to accept it." Dugu Bo took the soul bone, played with it for a moment, and then handed it back to Chen Feng.

Seeing Chen Feng's surprise, Dugu Bo chuckled and said:
"My solution is to hand it over to you. I can tell you have some questions about it, so use it to find the answers."

Chen Feng took the soul bone, shook his head, and smiled:

"Actually, I'm curious about what will happen if it's absorbed. It's made of small metal spheres. If it's absorbed entirely into the body, where will all that metal go?" "So that's what you're curious about." Dugu Bo suddenly realized. "Do you want to try it yourself? I remember you have a soul skill that's lightning attribute. If you're worried about any accidents happening during absorption, I can help you give this soul bone to Yu Tianheng so he can be the test subject."

Chen Feng was speechless. "Senior, Yu Tianheng is your prospective grandson-in-law, isn't he? Is it appropriate to treat him like this?"

Dugu Bo snorted, "You already know he's my grandson-in-law, so isn't it only right that I ask him for a little help? Besides, I wouldn't hide anything from him."

"Believe it or not, even if I tell that kid the truth, that this is a soul bone experiment made by Master Chenfeng, and that there might be accidents after absorbing it, there's a good chance that he won't refuse."

"Really?" Chen Feng was somewhat skeptical. "Knowing there might be an accident, how could he be willing to do that?"

Dugu Bo sighed, "You still don't quite understand the significance of what you did today, nor do you understand what a soul bone means to a soul master. I can tell you very clearly that even if absorbing a soul bone might lead to death, there are still plenty of people scrambling to absorb it."

"But Yu Tianheng is the most outstanding person of this generation of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family. Would he risk his life for a soul bone?" Chen Feng was still somewhat skeptical.

In his view, Yu Tianheng was a rising star like himself, and as long as he developed steadily, his future was bright. There was no reason for him to take such an unknown risk.

"I see you don't understand at all." Dugu Bo shook his head. "That's right, if it's a soul bone of unknown origin, and you know that absorbing it might be fatal, that kid Yu Tianheng would probably be cautious. But have you forgotten your significance in the world of soul masters?"

Dugu Bo tapped Chen Feng's chest. "What do you think the words 'Biological Pioneer' mean to those biological soul masters? Do you know that Yu Tianheng often talks about you?"
“After I came back, Yan Yan kept complaining to me about how much Yu Tianheng admired you, and that if you were a girl, Yu Tianheng would probably dump Yan Yan and chase after you. Do you think he would be unwilling to be your guinea pig?”

Chen Feng:
"Pfft!" Xiao Wu couldn't help but burst out laughing, and Tang San couldn't help but chuckle as well.

"So if you want a test subject, I'll help you give the soul bone to that kid Yu Tianheng." Dugu Bo extended his hand to Chen Feng.

Chen Feng remained silent for a while, and finally shook his head.

"No, I should experiment with the soul bones I made myself. It's not good to let others take the risks for me."

"You're really something." Dugu Bo frowned. "No one will say anything to you. Yu Tianheng himself is definitely willing. If he's not willing, I can take the soul bone back."

"I feel guilty about it." Chen Feng pointed to his chest. "I am honored as a pioneer in biology. It is an honor, but also a responsibility. As a pioneer, there is no reason for me to hide behind and let others explore the path."

He paused, looked at the horn-shaped soul bone in his hand, and said in a serious voice:

"As a pioneer, I should be the first in the world."

After saying that, Chen Feng sat down cross-legged, placed the soul bone in his hand on his forehead, and then used his soul power to activate the special energy within it.

In an instant, lightning enveloped Chen Feng's head.

Enveloped in this electric light, the first thing Chen Feng felt was an unfamiliar soul force being injected into his mind.

This unfamiliar soul power brought him a tingling sensation, which entered from between his eyebrows and gradually stimulated his brain.

Wherever the tingling sensation reached, Chen Feng felt his entire brain become somewhat hazy.

If I had to give an analogy, it's like the feeling of playing with a "soul extractor" in a past life, or even more pleasurable.

At the same time, stimulated by this tingling sensation, Chen Feng also felt that he had gained some control over the electric light around his brain.

And this control was increasing, allowing him to sense the subtle changes within the electric light—an indescribable, extremely extrasensory experience.

At that moment, the single-horned soul bone in Chen Feng's hand silently transformed into a beam of light and seeped into Chen Feng's head.

The next moment, a bulge appeared on Chen Feng's forehead, as if something was about to emerge.

However, what's strange is that there are not just one, but two bulges on Chen Feng's forehead.

They are located above his two eyes respectively.

At this moment, Chen Feng also felt a throbbing pain on his forehead. He subconsciously channeled his soul power there, and two blue horns with silver patterns grew out from Chen Feng's forehead.

After Chen Feng's horns grew out, he seemed to have a strange feeling. He seemed to be able to clearly sense everything around him, and even "see" the curious and surprised expressions on the faces of the people around him.

Even though he hasn't opened his eyes yet.

"Mental power?" Tang Hao was somewhat surprised.

He had sensed a mental fluctuation when his son Tang San used that strange eye technique.

Tang Hao was already extremely surprised at that time, because he was already over twenty-five years old when he experienced such mental fluctuations.

Now, after absorbing the soul bone, Chen Feng has also experienced mental fluctuations.

This is certainly partly due to the fact that the soul bone itself has spiritual attributes, but Chen Feng himself must also have talent in spiritual power. The combination of the two is what allowed Chen Feng's spiritual talent to be fully activated.

The lightning on Chen Feng's head lasted for about three days. During these three days, the others kept a close eye on Chen Feng's condition.

Tang San stayed near Chen Feng, ready to rescue him should Chen Feng encounter any problems.

Of course, he wasn't just sitting there waiting. He still needed to refine the pills that Xiao Wu and the Silver Lightning Flying Serpent needed to avoid the influence of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

So Tang San spent the last three days refining medicine while keeping an eye on Chen Feng. Fortunately, the pills he was refining were not too difficult to make, otherwise there would most likely have been problems.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. When Chen Feng woke up, Tang San, who had been watching him closely, was the first to notice.

"Xiao Feng, how are you feeling?" Tang San asked.

"It feels great," Chen Feng said, looking around.

His eyes were shimmering with purple light, and everything he saw had changed compared to before.

At this moment, Chen Feng could easily see the tiny patterns on a herb on the opposite side of the valley, something that had never happened before.

Clearly, absorbing the head soul bone brought about some changes to his Purple Demon Eye.

If nothing unexpected happens, Chen Feng's Purple Demon Eye should have already entered the realm of subtlety.

Tang San had already reached this level many years ago because he cultivated diligently and also utilized the innate energy that had not completely dissipated after his birth.

Chen Feng, on the other hand, did not have such favorable conditions. He also had to devote some of his energy to other matters, so his cultivation progress was naturally much slower.

"In addition, a question I had before has also been answered."

Chen Feng opened his palm, and a small metal ball lay quietly in his hand.
