Douluo Continent: This Tang San is different

Chapter 410 Martial Soul Bone Armor True Form! Martial Soul Fusion! Inseparable...

Amidst a golden storm of light, Chrysanthemum Douluo was covered in layers of bone armor, its entire body gleaming gold, as if composed of chrysanthemum petals.

Golden patterns converge at the chest, forming a blooming chrysanthemum.

As the whirlwind dissipated, Chrysanthemum Douluo gently clenched his fist, and a powerful burst of soul power erupted, forcing Elder Xing and the others to retreat.

"This is!"

A bead of sweat the size of a bean dripped from Elder Xing's forehead.

fair?

Just kidding!

After this guy took on the form of this armor, his soul power fluctuations reached level 98... Isn't such an increase a bit too exaggerated?

This is not the level one or two soul power of an ordinary soul master, but the level two soul power of level ninety-six to ninety-eight!

Could you be any more outrageous?

"call!"

Ghost Douluo was surrounded by a purplish-black vortex, and then his body was covered by a layer of black armor. There was a giant skull on his chest, his face was completely covered, and there were two large shield-like shoulder armors on his shoulders.

The Martial Soul True Body Armor isn't something only Chrysanthemum Douluo knows!

"Old Ghost, your Martial Soul Bone Armor True Form is much more exaggerated than mine." Chrysanthemum Douluo looked at the two huge shield-like shoulder armors on Ghost Douluo's shoulders and teased, "You are clearly an assassin-type agility-attack type, but you look more like a physical defense-type Soul Master."

"Perhaps, this is the true form of my martial soul." Ghost Douluo was also using this martial soul bone armor true form for the first time. Sensing the changes in his body, he realized something, and the corner of his mouth under the mask curled up slightly.

Before Ghost Douluo awakened his martial soul in his childhood, he died once. Whether he really died or fell into some kind of suspended animation, no one except him knows. But when he "revived" and awakened his martial soul, it was his own soul, which is the so-called "ghost".

In a sense, this is also a type of spirit soul, but it is very special, being a spirit-type spirit soul in the true sense.

Through the true form of his Martial Soul Bone Armor, Ghost Douluo fully integrated his Martial Soul into his body, establishing an energy armor based on his bones. Only then did he realize that his original Martial Soul was not a soul, but a skeleton. It was only because of the "death" accident in his childhood that the unawakened Martial Soul's origin, driven by "instinct," wanted to protect him and safeguard his own soul. As a result, it was slightly affected by spiritual power, leading to the Martial Soul that later awakened being his own soul.

At this moment, his own skeleton was awakened again, giving his Martial Soul Bone Armor True Form unparalleled defensive capabilities.

Of course, since there is only one origin of a martial soul, Ghost Douluo cannot possess twin martial souls, but in the state of the Bone Armor True Body of the martial soul, he can also awaken his own skeleton.

"That's really lucky." Chrysanthemum Douluo wasn't envious. Sensing the soul power fluctuations between the two, he said, "Should we perform a Martial Soul Fusion Technique? I have a feeling that this time, we won't just fuse a static bipolar domain, but a true Martial Soul Fusion."

Soul Fusion Techniques are now known on the continent and can be categorized into three types: Soul Power Fusion, Soul Skill Fusion, and Soul Fusion.

Among them, Martial Soul Fusion includes Soul Power Fusion and Soul Skill Fusion, but because the former two can be used independently, they are specifically divided into three categories.

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo are capable of fusing soul power and soul skills, and the Polar Stillness Domain is a powerful weapon. However, because their martial souls are not similar, even if their attributes can reach a certain balance without surpassing the power of ordinary people, they can never fuse into a completely new martial soul state, and are limited to the level of soul skill fusion.

At this moment, both of them are the true forms of their Martial Soul Bone Armor. After their Martial Soul and body are completely compatible, they have become similar. In addition, since their attributes are similar, they have a tendency to merge.

The six thin slits on Ghost Douluo's helmet, which concealed his face, gleamed with a scarlet light, and then he let out a chilling laugh, saying, "Alright, let's try it out and see just how powerful we two can be when we join forces."

"Then I'm coming!" Chrysanthemum Douluo's soul power was like a blooming chrysanthemum, enveloping him and Ghost Douluo. Ghost Douluo also released his soul power, connecting with Chrysanthemum Douluo's soul power and then merging with it.

The two already had an excellent rapport, so their spirit fusion was a natural progression.

"Not good! We can't let them finish fusing!" Seeing the situation was bad, Elder Xing immediately led the five people who had finished repairing their bodies to rush up, but when they were a hundred meters away from the two Douluo, their bodies were frozen in mid-air and they could not move.

This is a realm of extreme stillness!

When Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were fusing their martial souls, an invisible protective shield with a diameter of over 100 meters formed around them. Any entity that approached would be frozen in place and unable to move.

"I never imagined that in their Spirit Bone Armor True Form state, the two seniors could actually perform Spirit Fusion, and their previous Spirit Fusion Technique even became a passive ability protecting them during the fusion." Tang San sensed with great interest the interweaving and fusion of the two energies at the center of the fusion, even their flesh and bones were fused together, achieving a true balance, seemingly inseparable...

As the golden and black storm dissipated, a figure with a graceful, woman-like form appeared in the arena. She was six zhang tall, clad in black armor with gold patterns, and twenty-four chrysanthemum-petal-shaped blades with gold and black patterns swirled around her.

He wore a domed helmet that covered the upper half of his face, with a golden gem in the center, resembling a budding daisy, inside which was a black skull.

The sixteen-foot-tall female body formed by the fusion of martial spirits seemed to be a natural creation, possessing both the brilliance and strength of light, as well as the gloom and chill of darkness.

Elegant and dignified.

Insidious and cunning.

These two distinct qualities coexist in one, revealing His truest self!

"Time and space are in my hands."

The sixteen-foot-tall female figure spoke, not in the exaggerated voices of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo as everyone had imagined, but in a truly female voice, as if the two had truly merged into a completely new life entity.

With a slight raise of his hand, Elder Xing and the others were once again frozen in mid-air, unable to move. Then, he shot out twenty-four sharp blades, piercing through their chests.

In an instant, of the six, only Elder Xing, a level 98 Super Douluo, was still holding on. The other five, three level 96 Title Douluos, as well as Yi Hongchen and Jun Youwei, were all killed. Their dropped soul bones, all of which were ten thousand years old, were collected by Him and delivered to Tang San.

"Level ninety-nine, unparalleled in this world. There is such a powerful martial soul fusion skill in the world. I have no reason to lose!" Elder Xing's pupils began to dilate. Looking at the mangled corpse of his colleague beside him, he closed his eyes and awaited death.

But the woman, who was sixteen feet tall, spared his life.

For the Spirit Hall, Elder Xing, who is at level 98, is more valuable alive than dead.

Not only can it be used to threaten the Sun Moon Empire, but more importantly, it allows the Spirit Hall to study the physical bodies of level 98 powerhouses, which is extremely rare research material, especially for Tang San.

After all, Bibi Dong couldn't command the Title Douluos in the Hall of Offerings...

After the battle, Tang San and the others landed back on the ground, returned the throne of wisdom and spirit to Hu Liena, and then collected the mangled corpses of the five Title Douluos.

He was at least a Title Douluo level, so even if he died, he could still be used for research.

Since they are the corpses of the enemy, they don't need to be respected; they can be put to good use.

However, a problem now lies before Tang San: the sixteen-foot-tall female body formed by the fusion of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo cannot be separated.

The Martial Soul Bone Armor True Form is a way to completely integrate the Martial Soul into oneself, which is equivalent to the physical manifestation of the Martial Soul. Now that the two have fused their Martial Souls, after the success, it has become fixed as a normal state and cannot be separated.

Tang San couldn't immediately figure out what changes had occurred.

Its height has decreased from 1.6 meters to about 1.8 meters. The soul power of this independent individual formed by the fusion of Chrysanthemum Demon has also dropped to level 98, but its body has become more refined.

Using his primordial spirit, Tang San sensed that the opponent's physical body was in a state between energy and physical form. The two martial souls, Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo, and their attributes were undergoing a deeper fusion. Meanwhile, the original souls of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo existed separately in the location of their upper dantian, constantly being tempered by the essence, energy, and spirit of this fused individual.

If this continues, perhaps in about a thousand years, the souls of these two people will be able to break through to the level of divine souls.

This physical body was jointly controlled by the souls of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo. As for why the two grown men were speaking in female voices, that remains unknown.

Perhaps it's because Chrysanthemum Douluo is somewhat effeminate, and Ghost Douluo's personality is rather dark. The fusion of the two resulted in a "positive plus negative" outcome that shouldn't have occurred. The fused body is already close to an energy entity, and if the two's thinking is inclined towards femininity at this time, then the outward appearance will be feminized.

Um--

It's highly likely that Chrysanthemum Douluo's thinking was more dominant. After all, between the two, Ghost Douluo generally doesn't have much of his own opinion and always follows Chrysanthemum Douluo's orders and takes care of his feelings.

"I understand your situation to some extent. If you want to separate, we'll need to conduct further research after we get back..."

"separate?"

Before Tang San could finish speaking, the girl in front of him interrupted him, saying, "I've always wanted to be a woman, and now that I've achieved my dream, we can't be apart."

Tang San: "..." Whatever makes you happy, but when the time comes to do the research, we still have to do it. You can't refuse.

"So, what should I call you?"

"What should I call you? This body is a fusion of Old Ghost and me. Our most famous ability used to be the Soul Skill Fusion: Bipolar Stillness Domain. This body was successfully fused because we achieved the True Body of the Martial Soul Bone Armor, so we'll call you the Bone Armor Twin Bipolar Being." At this moment, the one in control of the body is Chrysanthemum Douluo. "When I occupy this body, I'm called the Bone Armor Twin Chrysanthemum Fairy, and when Old Ghost occupies it—"

"I'm not as perverted as the Chrysanthemum Monster." Suddenly, the woman's voice deepened, and her figure became thinner, transforming from female to male—

Ghost Douluo is now online!

"Just call me Mr. Ghost."

"Mr. Ghost, you're not a scholar!" The male body then transformed back into a female body, and the voice became gentle again, clearly indicating that Chrysanthemum Douluo had taken control.

And so, the two began to argue, their bodies shifting back and forth between male and female forms...

"Third Brother, these two Title Douluos are really something else," Xiao Wu whispered in Tang San's ear. "They're neither male nor female, it's really strange."

"Well, you could say this is a miracle that transcends gender," Tang San said, offering a different perspective, but fearing misunderstanding from Xiao Wu and the others, he immediately stated that he wouldn't attempt such an experiment...

After the war, the four factions began to distribute the spoils of war, which included the soul-guided weapons of the Sun and Moon Army.

The Spirit Hall has the most, followed by the Heavenly Dou, and then the Star Luo.

The New Heavenly Dou Federation has the fewest.

As for the prisoners of the Sun Moon Army, as long as they reached the Soul Master level and possessed a Soul Ring, all of them had their tendons in their hands and feet severed and were temporarily kept outside the city.

"This battle was a great victory, all thanks to Earl Silverblue." At the victory banquet, Ge Long toasted Tang San and laughed loudly, "We defeated the invading enemy without losing a single soldier."

Tang San raised his cup, exchanged a few polite words, and then began to discuss his plans: "Although we have won this battle, Xiaohai City is still under enemy control, so we cannot be careless."

"Let's use enemy prisoners to exchange for the people of Xiaohai City first."

"Also, we need to get all the details about the Sun and Moon Continent from that elder codenamed 'Star' so we can deal with it in the future."

Golong naturally agreed, after all, Tang San's strength had already shown only the tip of the iceberg. With that peculiar throne, he could crush an army of ten thousand, including that level ninety-eight titled Douluo.

How could anyone dare to disobey such an existence?

"Exchanging enemy prisoners for the captured civilians of Xiaohai City is a good idea, but we need to be careful." Ning Fengzhi raised his glass to invite them to drink. "The Sun and Moon Enemy is also researching soul-guided devices, and they have already achieved mass production of soul-guided weapons. If we were to strap soul-guided bombs or something similar to the civilians of Xiaohai City and transport them to our side..."

Everyone realized that, given the Sun Moon Empire's history of massacring entire cities, such a thing was not out of the question.

Moreover, it remains to be seen whether the enemy forces of the Sun and Moon will return these more than 10,000 prisoners.

After all, the tendons in the hands and feet of these more than 10,000 people had been severed. Even if the Sun and Moon side had a large number of healing-type soul masters and advanced soul guidance healing equipment, it would be impossible to treat these people immediately.

For a long time, these prisoners will become a burden to the enemy forces of the Sun and Moon, and the prisoners are very stubborn, none of them are willing to surrender.

The phrase he shouted most often was: "For the glory of the Emperor!"

This is a very terrible thing—

The so-called emperor brainwashed them so much that they were willing to dedicate everything to the emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire.

All their thoughts, ideas, and actions were in accordance with the orders of the Sun and Moon Emperor, rather than with their own will.

These soldiers were practically puppets of someone, completely devoid of their own independent thought.

This is different from the way Soul Masters on the mainland worship Tang San, the master of martial soul theory. Most of them admire Tang San because they accepted the theories he published.

And what about the soldiers of the Sun and Moon Empire?

They completely idolized everything about that emperor, as if his words and deeds were the truth that had to be followed, otherwise they would be ashamed to live in this world.

To be honest, Ning Fengzhi felt that in the past, he would have been happy if the non-direct disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had such an attitude, but now seeing the soldiers of the Sun Moon Empire so fanatical, he felt a sense of fear.

Such fanaticism, for the so-called glory of the emperor, they would do anything, it's not too much, it's like a different kind of depravity!

"Sect Leader Ning is right." Tang San affirmed Ning Fengzhi's concerns, and then said, "However, I also have some research on soul tools. With my mental strength, I can conduct investigations and take preventative measures."

"Secondly, regarding whether the Sun Moon Empire is willing to make an exchange—"

"Those ordinary soldiers might give up, but that level 98 Title Douluo will definitely be taken back. That's our bargaining chip."

Ning Fengzhi suddenly realized.

It turns out that the bargaining chip from beginning to end was that level 98 Star Elder, not the 10,000 prisoners of war from the Sun Moon Empire. Including them was merely to create trouble for the Sun Moon Empire's army...

···

After the banquet, Ge Long had a soldier from the Sun Moon Empire captured and ordered his wounds treated: "Sun Moon traitor, you're lucky. Go back to Xiaohai City and tell the four Title Douluos there that in three days we will come to retrieve the people you captured from Xiaohai City, in exchange for your Star Elder and ten thousand soldiers."

"You must not cut off Elder Xing's limbs." The man gritted his teeth, worried that Tang San and the others would cut off Elder Xing's limbs in order to obtain the soul bone.

"I won't cut off any limbs," Tang San assured the other party. "As everyone knows, I never lie, and as the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, I must keep my word."

The man gave Tang San a deep look, chose to believe him, and then ran away without looking back.

Although his injuries had healed, his soul power had not yet recovered. Golong had not prepared a horse for him. The distance from Soul Sea City to Howling Sea City would take an ordinary soul master a day to travel. Even if he did not eat or drink on the way, it was still unknown whether he could return within three days.

It all depends on how much his fanaticism for that so-called emperor will boost his willpower.

After the man left, Tang San, Ning Fengzhi, and the others went to the dungeon and found Fairy Chrysanthemum, who was whipping Elder Xing, who was bound.

At this moment, Elder Xing was no longer the spirited man he once was. His white hair was disheveled, his body was covered in blood, and his limbs were pierced by steel needles with a diameter of more than three centimeters and pinned to the wall. He was also connected to two chains on his back, and two hooks pierced through his collarbone, making him unable to exert any force.

"Senior Chrysanthemum Douluo, it's not good to mistreat prisoners," Tang San stopped Chrysanthemum Fairy.

"Who told this guy to refuse to say anything? I have no choice but to use torture." Fairy Chrysanthemum put away her whip, her shy and charming appearance making Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo beside her somewhat unable to accept it.

After all, this guy was a man during the day, just a bit effeminate, but now he has really become a woman, and he can switch freely.

Given their values, it's really hard for them to accept.

"May I ask your full name?" Tang San didn't want to have much contact with Fairy Chrysanthemum, so he asked Elder Xing's name instead.

"Xu Fu." Elder Xing raised his head and stared directly at Tang San—this was the best time to self-destruct, but his soul power was suppressed and his mental power was weakened to the extreme.

Self-destruction...

Can't do it at all.

"This name is legendary." Tang San remained silent for a while before speaking softly.

[That expression is similar to His Majesty's when he first learned my name...]

Xu Fu was somewhat puzzled, but still asked, "Oh? Have you heard of my reputation somewhere? But I live on another continent, how did you know?"

Tang San slowly said, "In my hometown, there was a man also named Xu Fu who liked to sell fake medicine."

Xu Fu: "..."
