The Great Thief of the Universe, Starting from Douluo

Chapter 5 Crypt Demon Spider
After answering Zhang San's questions, Bibi Dong felt more and more that something was wrong.

The reason is simple. Judging from Zhang San's questions, the so-called useless martial spirit, the pig beast, actually has an independence that most martial spirits in the world do not have!
"Since the teacher can list such details, I believe there must be real examples of this situation. How about I tell you what I think?"

"You said."

Bibi Dong nodded, her expression slightly unnatural.

If Zhang San could really find a suitable way to evolve her martial soul, wouldn't that mean that the theoretical master she admired was actually not as good as a child who had just awakened his martial soul?
Bibi Dong was unwilling to face this fact, but emotionally, she sincerely hoped that Zhang San could come up with an effective method to evolve his martial soul.

And if I could teach this method to Xiaogang...

"The first and most important thing is to understand the attributes and characteristics of your own martial spirit."

"Since it's derived from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, there's no doubt that this so-called pig-beast is a dragon, even if it looks like a pig."

"Dragons, of course, eat meat."

Zhang San's voice was not loud, but that calm voice was like a thunder that passed through Bibi Dong's mind, making her face suddenly turn pale.

yes…

Luo Sanpao is a dragon after all, and he has the ability to eat. He can even use radishes to induce farting, so he naturally has the ability to digest and absorb!

But why has no one realized such a simple truth so far?
It’s okay for me, but Xiaogang also...

"Of course, before that, we still need to understand the elemental properties of the martial soul."

"There are five basic elemental attributes in this world: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. They complement and counteract each other. As a mutant with the thunder attribute, there is a high probability that it is within the scope of gold, fire, water, and light. When the martial soul has independent consciousness, it is not difficult to judge."

"Then the first way to evolve your martial soul is obvious. Feed it the meat of a dragon-type soul beast of the same attribute. At the same time, if conditions permit, supplement it with medicine that strengthens the body and nourishes soul power."

"The biggest advantage of this method is that even if you don't absorb spirit rings, you can still transform your spirit in the same way that sand gathers to form a tower or water accumulates to form a lake. In other words, you can make up for your innate defects."

"In addition, from the perspective of the relationship between martial spirits and spirit masters, this transformation will further feed back to the spirit master, thereby improving the spirit master's innate qualifications and increasing the speed of cultivation."

"How is it? Teacher, do you think this method is feasible?"

Zhang San looked at Bibi Dong, who remained silent.

does it work?
It’s so feasible!

Apart from his identity as a martial soul, Luo Sanpao can be said to be no different from a soul beast.

Isn’t the evolution method that Zhang San mentioned the way normal soul beasts grow?

Thinking about how Bai Yueguang fed Luo Sanpao white radish in the past, Bibi Dong smiled bitterly.

If she previously thought that Zhang San's ability to break Yu Xiaogang's spirit ring limit theory was due to his martial spirit ability and luck, now she is completely certain.

She didn’t know whether Yu Xiaoang was a master or not, or maybe she didn’t want to face it, but at least Zhang San was much smarter than Yu Xiaoang!
Seeing Bibi Dong didn't say anything, Zhang San smiled slightly.

not talking?
Pretending to be a master?
Then don’t blame me for chasing and killing you!
There is naturally no problem with the theory proposed by Zhang San. Due to the special nature of Luo Sanpao, he consulted the system for a long time. Naturally, there is not only one solution.

"Let's talk about the second method."

"There's a second option?"

As soon as Zhang San said this, Bibi Dong was shocked.

In her opinion, it was incredible that Zhang San could come up with a solution, and this was also due to the special nature of Luo Sanpao, which was not applicable to most people.

In such a short time, this kid actually came up with other solutions?

"Of course, such a special martial spirit is simply God chasing after it and feeding it. Although the starting point is relatively low, the upper limit is ridiculously high."

Zhang San chuckled and said, "As I said just now, a martial soul with independent consciousness and the ability to circulate soul power on its own can naturally also be cultivated. Wouldn't this double the cultivation speed?"

"Also, I read in a book that spirit ring absorption is the process by which a spirit master activates a spirit ring and injects its energy into his martial spirit. I think even if we can't make it absorb the spirit ring on its own, it shouldn't be impossible for the two to share the pain of the spirit ring's absorption and thus absorb spirit rings beyond the limit, right?"

"By absorbing beyond the limit again and again like this, and utilizing the extra energy from high-year spirit rings of the same attribute, I should be able to make up for the innate defects of my martial spirit to a great extent."

"Of course, both approaches share a common premise, which is recognition."

Zhang San spoke leisurely. He really wanted a martial soul like Luo Sanpao. Doesn't he carry a Pokémon with him?

Normally, they treat it as a pet, but when they fight, they just say: Go Pikachu! Use 100,000 volts!

"Understand your own martial spirit, recognize your own mediocrity, learn to accept it and continue to strive. If it were me, I would probably give it a nice name right away."

"If you can't even do this, I'm afraid you won't even understand the characteristics of your martial spirit. Let alone evolution, you'll be nothing more than a joke..."

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong's smile became even more bitter.

A nice name?
Luo Sanpao?

Luo is the name of Luo Luo, and San Pao is because it can fart three times...

There is no doubt that the three words Luo Sanpao are more of a derogatory term than a name.

Does Yu Xiaogang agree with Luo Sanpao?
Probably not agree.

Although Bibi Dong is concerned about Yu Xiaogang, she is not blind.

She could see the sadness and unwillingness in the other person's eyes every time he looked at Luo Sanpao, as well as the deeply hidden...disgust.

That's right, disgust.

As a direct descendant of one of the three great sects, and the son of a Titled Douluo, his martial soul is a squealing pig-beast. How could he not feel disgusted?

If it is not disgusting, why does such a martial spirit that can exist independently like a pet rarely appear in front of people?
Once upon a time, she also felt resentful towards Luo Sanpao because of this, and believed that Luo Sanpao was the one who dragged Yu Xiaogang down.

So when Zhang San proposed the first solution, she just thought that Zhang San was smarter than Yu Xiaoang.

But now Bibi Dong finally realized that there was absolutely no comparison between these two people.

It was not to save Yu Xiaogang's face, but from her perspective after seeing all the geniuses in the world over the years, this child had a pattern and realm that most of the powerful people in the world could not match.

Comparing Yu Xiao'an with others is pure fraud...

It is true that Bibi Dong is in love. Although she is a little blind, she is not without cognitive ability.

On the contrary, from being the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall to sitting on the throne of Pope, her understanding of some things is deeper than that of most people in the world.

When her invincible golden body of theory shattered, she finally woke up briefly from her past blind and morbid obsession, and clearly realized whether what she had been obsessed with was pearls or mud.

For some reason, after realizing this, when Bibi Dong thought of that figure again, although she still felt nostalgic for it, she inexplicably felt a sense of boredom.

At this moment, she felt inexplicably confused.

"Teacher, since this martial spirit is real, I wonder what level of cultivation that spirit master has reached now?"

Not willing to let go of the confused Bibi Dong, Zhang San was still chasing her to kill her!

He looked at Bibi Dong with a strong desire for knowledge on his face.

"Twenty-nineth-level Great Soul Master..."

Bibi Dong sighed softly, "That person doesn't have a brain as sharp as yours. If there weren't some good opportunity, I'm afraid he would have stopped here in his life."

"Is this person... important to you, teacher?"

Zhang San seemed to realize something and looked at Bibi Dong cautiously.

"without…"

Bibi Dong smiled and said, "I just felt touched by what you just said."

"That's good…"

Zhang San heaved a sigh of relief: "In my opinion, acquiring spirit rings is a way to complete and perfect the martial soul and seek evolution. Since it has reached a bottleneck, it means that the potential has been exhausted. It is even possible that the spirit ring attributes have not been found correctly, otherwise it should not be only level 29." It was like pouring salt on the wound, and Bibi Dong felt uncomfortable.

Just as Zhang San had thought before, feelings cannot be changed in a short time.

Although the halo of the theoretical master has been shattered into pieces, at least at this stage, in her opinion, she does not love the theoretical master, but Yu Xiaogang as a person.

Moreover, his new disciple is naturally gifted, and his character is far superior to that of ordinary people. There is nothing shameful in not being able to compare with him.

So when she heard Zhang San say this, she still felt a little uncomfortable.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Regarding the first spirit ring, do you have any other ideas, Xiao San?"

Bibi Dong breathed a sigh of relief and changed the subject.

After hearing this, Zhang San didn't want to continue killing. It was already a pleasant surprise that he could shatter the halo of the theoretical master in one wave.

Too much is as bad as too little. It’s not fun to drive this bitch crazy…

"In addition to the Earth-walking Gold-seeking Rat, the spotted mountain cat, the rock wildebeest, and the burrow spider can all be used as alternatives. If it is the burrow spider, the age of the soul ring needs to be slightly reduced." Zhang San thought for a while and said.

These soul beasts are all earth-attributed and are all known for their speed, but their emphasis is different.

The lynx is agile and nimble, and is also a burrowing creature, good at digging holes and hiding.

The Rock Wildebeest is good at running long distances and has an extremely pure earth attribute.

Needless to say, the burrowing spider is an expert at digging holes, with swift attacks and the ability to create traps to kill prey. It has strong mental power and is also good at hiding. In the original novel, Tang San's spider web cage came from this kind of soul beast.

Bibi Dong nodded. Her expected target was the lynx, which coincided with Zhang San's idea.

These soul beasts are not difficult to find, but due to their living habits, they are relatively rare in the outskirts of the forest.

Among them, the golden rat is the easiest to find, but most of those encountered along the way are only thirty to fifty years old, and at most a hundred years old.

Bibi Dong was a little absent-minded along the way, but fortunately, with the strength of a Titled Douluo, she could sense the breath of soul beasts from a long distance. Even some soul beasts that were good at hiding could not hide from her perception, so there was no need to worry about safety.

After searching for most of the day, Zhang San suddenly stopped.

Bibi Dong looked at Zhang San: "What's wrong?"

Zhang San pointed to the front right and said, "There's a good thing over there. It feels much stronger than the blood ginseng."

Bibi Dong's eyes lit up and she hurried over with Zhang San.

Soon, Zhang San found a black object in a bush covered with weeds.

Bibi Dong's face lit up with joy: "Is this... a soul bone?"

"Two thousand years, tsk..."

Zhang San casually handed it to Bibi Dong: "The left leg bone of the Gale Demon Wolf, it's really a common soul beast..."

Bibi Dong was a little surprised by Zhang San's understatement, but after thinking about it, she felt that there seemed to be nothing strange about it.

Given the other party's talent and the determination he had shown before, if he showed joy on his face just because of a thousand-year-old soul bone, that would be a collapse of his character.

"Keep it for yourself."

Bibi Dong smiled slightly but did not take the soul bone.

She already had divine equipment, so this thing was of no use to her and could only be used to reward her subordinates.

"As my disciples, there will inevitably be people following me in the future. I can use them to train my own team."

"It's better to exchange it for money. If you have that much time, I will have banned the account."

Zhang San shook his head. He had no interest in training a team.

The great thief walks alone, and the great road also walks alone.

He would rather have someone walking alongside him than his subordinates.

Bibi Dong smiled when she heard this, accepted the soul bone, and said nothing more, but her evaluation of this disciple became higher.

Soon, another two hours passed.

During this time, Zhang San discovered six medicinal herbs and two soul bones, one was a thousand years old and the other was a hundred years old, which left Bibi Dong stunned.

It was not until the sky gradually darkened that the two finally encountered a suitable soul beast - a nearly eight hundred year old crypt demon spider!
The expected gold-seeking rat was nowhere to be found. This kind of soul beast was too weak and most of them would become food for other soul beasts. Not to mention eight hundred years old, even one that was a hundred years old was rare.

Although the Subterranean Demon Spider is not a pure speed-type soul beast, its earth attribute is purer than that of the Gold-Seeking Rat. As one of the top predators among spider-type soul beasts, the quality of its soul ring is of course the highest among the several targets.

Its powerful mental power and concealment ability are very suitable for the cloak, but the concealment ability of the cloak is already quite incredible, even the title cannot be sensed, so Zhang San did not list it as the first choice.

"That's it!"

Zhang San slapped his thigh and said, "Hesitation will lead to failure!"

Holding a dagger, Zhang San raised his hand and slashed, and the dagger was deeply embedded in the head of the burrow spider.

The Subterranean Demon Spider, which was suppressed by Bibi Dong's soul power throughout the entire process, let out a sharp hiss and died unwillingly.

Soon, a bright yellow soul ring emerged from the burrow spider. Zhang San sat down cross-legged and began to absorb the soul ring on the spot.

As his mind guided him, the soul ring slowly floated towards Zhang San.

The moment it fell, it was as if a roar exploded in my mind.

A huge amount of energy surged into his body, like a rushing river, rushing through his limbs and bones.

Zhang San groaned, focused his mind, and mobilized the soul power in his body to try to calm it down.

Gradually, I felt a swelling sensation in my body, the excess energy in my soul ring surged, and my meridians ached slightly under the impact of the soul power.

After a long time, after some of the soul power dissipated, Zhang San finally calmed down the soul power completely. As the soul power was completely integrated into his body, it was as if some shackles were broken. The swelling on his body that made him uncomfortable also disappeared, and he felt an indescribable sense of clarity.

When I opened my eyes again, it was already pitch black.

A bonfire was burning fiercely in front of him, with two shiny and fragrant pheasants on it.

Bibi Dong was roasting a pheasant when she noticed Zhang San's movements. She looked at him with a satisfied smile in her eyes.

"Level 14, not bad!"

“Really good…”

Zhang San nodded. In the original novel, Tang San absorbed a four-hundred-year soul ring and his soul power reached level thirteen.

However, the extra three levels he had to take into account the two-month bottleneck period before his martial soul awakened, as well as the three months of training after his martial soul awakened and the start of school.

According to the normal cultivation speed, the extra soul power brought to him by the four hundred year soul ring should be around level one and a half.

The extra four levels he had were purely due to the high quality of his spirit ring.

Zhang San clenched his fists and felt the abundant power in his body, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"Teacher, I'm going out treasure hunting!"

"..."

Are we really in such a hurry?

Your martial spirit just awakened the day before yesterday!
