Douluo: I Have an Unnamed Law

Chapter 27: The first step to prevent love brain, teach Bibi Dongwuhun theory
"Senior Sister, do you know why this book says that weapon spirits cannot absorb beast spirits?"

Gu Han held a book and started the topic by asking questions.

"I remember the teacher mentioned it...but I forgot."

Bibi Dong thought about it and then shook her head. The teacher seemed to have talked about this at that time, but she didn’t listen at all.

Gu Han shook his head slightly, he was indeed a primary school loser.

"On the mainland, people often classify plant-type martial spirits as weapon-type martial spirits."

"Although some people say that mainland martial spirits are divided into three categories, more people generally believe that they are divided into two categories: beast martial spirits and weapon martial spirits."

"Senior Sister, you must have heard of the Clear Sky Hammer and the Seven Killing Swords."

"Yes, I know. The Clear Sky Hammer is the inherited spirit of the Clear Sky Sect, and the Seven Killing Swords are the spirits of successive generations of Sword Douluo. They are both among the most famous top-tier weapon spirits on the continent."

Bibi Dong nodded. She still knew these most basic things.

"Well, the Clear Sky Hammer, the Seven Killing Sword, and Junior Brother's sword spirit all have one thing in common: they are all weapons."

"Junior brother's sword spirit, the first and second spirit rings are all hunting beast spirit beasts. Not only are they successful, but they also improve the attributes and quality of the spirit."

"But the plant-type is different. Take Senior Yueguan's martial soul as an example. According to my conversation with Senior Yueguan and our understanding, all of his spirit rings come from plant-type spirit beasts that are rich in gold and have powerful attack power."

"Hmm, so why do you say that weapon spirits can't absorb the spirit rings of animal spirit beasts?" Bibi Dong tilted her head thoughtfully and asked puzzledly.

"To be precise, plant-type spirits don't belong to weapon spirits, but should be separated out separately. Soul masters who absorb spirit rings all have a characteristic: in order to evolve their own spirits, they need to absorb spirit beasts with the same attributes."

"As for plant-type spirit masters, it's not impossible to absorb the spirit rings of animal-type spirit beasts, but their spirits may mutate or even degenerate. The worst-case scenario is that the quality of their spirits won't be improved."

"Senior Sister, think about this. What would happen if a plant-type martial spirit, rich in powerful vitality, absorbed a poisonous beast soul?"

"Emmm..." Bibi Dong thought for a moment and tentatively replied, "Will it degenerate?"

Gu Han smiled and explained, "If the quality of their martial spirit is already very high, absorbing one or two won't have any impact. But if they continue to absorb, then the original function of their martial spirit will be completely obscured, and they won't be able to continue to evolve to a better level. There's even a risk of degradation."

"Furthermore, if a martial soul cannot evolve, then someone who should have the talent to break through to level 97, a Titled Douluo, may be stuck at level 95 for the rest of their lives, unable to advance an inch."

"On the contrary, the same is true for beast spirits."

"So, in my opinion, rather than saying that weapon spirits cannot absorb beast spirit rings, it is more appropriate to say that spirit masters with plant spirits should not absorb beast spirit rings unless they have a hundred thousand year old spirit beast."

This is the case with Tang San in the original novel. The first few to four soul rings he absorbed were from poisonous and dark attribute soul beasts. Before he absorbed the magic grass, the blue silver grass was as brittle as paper.

The poison is even more like chicken ribs. In the later stages, it is completely redundant. The stronger ones are not afraid of the paralyzing effect at all. Anyone can defeat those weaker than themselves.

If Tang San didn't have hidden weapons and the Tang Sect's unique skills to back him up, he probably wouldn't have been able to get past Cang Hui, let alone the finals.

Throughout the entire competition, until the end, facing a true genius, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass was completely ineffective, and he relied almost entirely on the Tang Sect's unique skills and even the Clear Sky Hammer to back him up. Tang San's martial spirit also began to take an alternative path after his fifth soul ring, when the Blue Silver King helped him fully awaken the Blue Silver Emperor martial spirit.

He gave up those funny poisonous soul skills and embarked on the strong attack system. The Blue Silver Overlord Spear and the soul bone skill of spring breeze rebirth can be said to have helped Tang San pass several divine tests.

Fortunately, Tang San’s Blue Silver Grass was not an ordinary Blue Silver Grass, but an unawakened Blue Silver Emperor.

If it was really just an ordinary blue silver grass, it would most likely be destroyed by the Jade Belt Master.

Having said that, if Tang San’s first four spirit rings absorbed plant-type spirit rings of the same attribute, would it be possible that he would have evolved on his own?

Shaking his head, Gu Han couldn't be sure about these things, but what he was sure of was that even if he couldn't evolve into the Blue Silver Emperor, it was more than enough for him to evolve into the Blue Silver King on his own.

"Oh, so that's how it is. No wonder the first two soul beasts that the teacher prepared for me were spider-type soul beasts with poisonous attributes like my martial soul."

Bibi Dong seemed to understand something and showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

"But then again, why don't hundred thousand year soul beasts have this requirement?"

"Because a hundred thousand year soul beast is no longer comparable to an ordinary soul beast. Once a soul beast reaches a hundred thousand years old, it has undergone a qualitative change. At that time, even if a plant-type soul master has unequal attributes, after absorbing it, the increase in power brought about is far more powerful than that of a ninety thousand year old soul beast with the same attributes."

"Also, the most crucial point is that a hundred thousand year old soul beast will definitely produce soul bones and grant the soul master two powerful soul skills."

"So that's it..."

Bibi Dong nodded thoughtfully, then gave a thumbs-up with a smile: "Junior brother, you are really amazing. You understand much better than what the teacher said in class."

"Thank you for the compliment, Senior Sister, but how does the teacher usually teach you?"

"The teacher always makes me hold a book and read it, and then he talks to me like a monk. Every time I have this kind of class, I can't help but feel sleepy."

Bibi Dong held her chin with her hands, and couldn't help but sigh as she recalled the time when she was learning martial spirit theory with her teacher.

"It would be great if the teacher could explain these complicated things in a few words like you, my junior brother."

"It doesn't matter. From now on, Junior Brother will come and study the martial spirit theory with Senior Sister."

Gu Han smiled. He had been studying for several years and it was impossible for him not to be bored. It was also good to have someone to accompany him and to explain to him so that he could review what he had learned and learn new things.

"Yeah, by the way, Junior Brother, does that grappling technique you taught me have a name?"

Bibi Dong suddenly changed the subject. She practiced the grappling technique that Gu Han taught her every day, but she suddenly remembered that she didn't know the name of it.

"Actually, Junior Brother hasn't really thought about the name, so why don't you pick one for me?"

Gu Han had never really thought about giving names to the moves and training methods bestowed upon him by the Nameless Method. After all, in his opinion, names were not important at all, as long as he knew their effects.
