From the Soul Motion Machine onwards, the Mechanized Douluo

Chapter 246 I knew you weren't human! Pah! Not even a Martial Soul! [Please subscribe! Please vote!]

"So that means that the Bone Spirit is actually a special soul life that has reached an advanced stage!" Qian Daoliu's eyes shone brightly. He felt as if he had been enlightened, and a torrent of wisdom was pouring down on him. This time, he held the umbrella upside down to catch the wisdom!

"Similarly, a soul spirit is theoretically nothing more than a special soul ring life that has reached an advanced form realm! That level of realm is even beyond my reach, so a soul spirit is of no use to me!" Qian Daoliu became more and more excited as he spoke, and couldn't help but say "I" to show his confidence at this moment.

Chen Hong looked at Qian Daoliu with a smile in his eyes, a hint of surprise in them.

"Congratulations, senior. You have basically learned how to understand other phenomena through one phenomenon, thereby gaining more knowledge."

"Yes, in my deduction, a soul spirit is actually a soul with the power of the Form Realm, controlling a soul ring. For ordinary soul masters, this is a good thing, since they only need to maintain a good relationship with the soul spirit to enjoy the benefits of high-level Form Realm soul rings in soul master battles. However, for soul masters like us whose soul realm has surpassed the Form Realm, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages. Soul spirits only hinder our progress towards the Intent Realm and offer no other benefits."

The reason why the Soul Spirit is only suitable for the advanced Form Realm in Chen Hong's deduction is that once the Intent Realm is reached, the Soul Skill evolves into the Soul Law, and the control over the Soul Ring deepens. At this time, if it is the Intent Realm of the Soul Spirit, then the Soul Master has to completely depend on the Soul Spirit's mood, because the ability to explode the Soul Ring and advance the Soul Ring is all within this realm. Although it may not necessarily backfire, if the Soul Spirit suddenly explodes one of your Soul Rings, then you are basically useless.

However, regarding the Soul Master's Intent, based on Chen Hong's understanding of the terrifying control that Intent has over Soul Rings, there wouldn't be any truly autonomous Soul Spirits within a Soul Master's Soul Rings. A Soul Master could kill a Soul Spirit without harm in an instant, if they so desired. Furthermore, if a Soul Spirit's cultivation level is insufficient, they cannot unleash the full effect of a Soul Technique. Therefore, in battle, the Soul Spirit can only act as a spectator, unable to provide assistance. (Snow Empress, a spirit of heaven and earth, is an Intent Soul Spirit. Including Tianmeng, a single Soul Ring in her hands is a complete Soul Technique; Huo Yuhao basically has to defer to her. If the Third Young Master hadn't written it so childishly...)

"Of course, as a completely new possibility, I personally think it has a certain degree of feasibility and can enrich the Soul Master system." Just as Chen Hong does not object to Yu Xiaogang spending time reorganizing the Soul Ring Absorption Year Formula, judging from Chen Hong's current technology, that kind of crude Soul Ring hunting is destined to be eliminated, and due to the existence of sacrificial Soul Rings and more advanced Soul Ring absorption methods, Yu Xiaogang's Soul Ring Absorption Year Formula is destined to be outdated. However, Chen Hong does not deny the value of what Yu Xiaogang wants to do, because Yu Xiaogang has done something practical, and as long as he has done it, it is all a good thing.

The development of civilization and technology should be tree-like, not spiraling or linear. Chen Hong is specifically responsible for continuously localizing his previous life's understanding of civilization and technology into this world, rapidly raising the technological ceiling of this world. Yu Xiaogang, and the diligent Soul Masters within the Technology Chamber of Commerce, are responsible for restoring Chen Hong's linearly stretched technology tree to its proper tree-like structure.

In Chen Hong's deductions, Soul Spirit Technology seemed to be a technology inferior to the third level of Soul Rings, but Chen Hong did not object to anyone being devoted to its research. On the contrary, as a technological reserve for the Technology Chamber of Commerce, Chen Hong strongly encouraged people to research different technologies, regardless of whether they were outdated or not.

Chen Hong discussed the issue of soul and soul bones with Qian Daoliu until the afternoon. The residents of Soto City remained enthusiastic about the mental network, but since the first batch of open slots was limited, the data peak did not last long. [Huang], who had been working overtime in the mental network, was finally able to spare a bit of attention and appear beside Chen Hong.

Qian Daoliu clicked his tongue in amazement as he looked at the spirit mechanical baby floating in mid-air beside Chen Hong, its eyes vacant. Its spiritual aura was extremely unstable, as if it were being subjected to some kind of inhuman torture at all times.

Qian Daoliu had seen Huang, but Huang was busy serving as the root server for the Soto Mental Network and couldn't spare the time to talk to Chen Hong about the Soul Bone.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I have to say, a spiritual soul master like you is practically a born evil soul master." Qian Daoliu couldn't help but sigh as he looked at Huang, whose expression had become numb from being overwhelmed by the torrent of data.

"Senior shouldn't say that." Chen Hong rubbed his temples, spreading his mental energy to sense the peak mental data in the Soto mental network. He estimated it to be within the range that Huang could handle, and then slowly said, "In handling this kind of highly repetitive work, procedural consciousness is more efficient than biological consciousness and is more resistant to interference."

As a relatively young and developing program consciousness, Huang is not yet able to withstand the current data surge of the Soto Mental Network on her own. Chen Hong often connects his psychic power to the root server to share the pressure of the Soto Mental Network with Huang.

Chen Hong only opened up 10,000 slots for netizens in the first batch. In addition to the production capacity limitation of the production line that the Technology Chamber of Commerce had just established, another important reason was the computing power limitation of Chen Hong and Huang.

Chen Hong is a bit special; he can make his computing power extremely efficient by changing the algorithm. However, Chen Hong can't just sit here doing nothing and act as a 'system' for the whole city! So he has to quickly improve Huang's computing power. He can't improve the quality in the short term, but Chen Hong plans to directly feed Huang spiritual essence to increase Huang's spiritual energy.

Therefore, the production of the War Soul Device by the Technology Chamber of Commerce will ultimately be based on the growth rate of Huang's computing power.

"Hey, by the way, these are for you. They should be what you wanted." Qian Daoliu's gaze swept over Huang repeatedly before he finally smiled helplessly and took out a fist-sized silver gem from his pocket.

"??? Such a large space stone?" Chen Hong took the silver gem from Qian Daoliu, his face showing surprise.

Space Stone, as the name suggests, is a rare gemstone that can be used to create space soul tools.

The spatial soul tools in this world are so barbaric and violent, because there's nothing we can do about it; God has blessed us with these gems that possess internal space.

Qian Daoliu looked at the look of surprise on Chen Hong's face and couldn't help but smile. He quite liked seeing surprise on this monstrous talent's face.

"Take a look at the internal files of the Spirit Hall that are not accessible to outsiders. They should be helpful for your research on your spirit."

It seems that Qian Daoliu also has a special interest in Chen Hong's martial spirit.

Chen Hong had been preparing materials for his Martial Soul research, which naturally couldn't be kept secret from Qian Daoliu. Therefore, Qian Daoliu directly sent him the core files of the Martial Soul Hall, hoping to see if Chen Hong could give him another surprise.

Of course, Qian Daoliu also went back and checked the relevant files on martial spirits. Well, he was shocked when he saw them.

Throughout history, countless bizarre martial souls have appeared, but Chen Hong's is unique in that it can upgrade independently of the soul master's body. (Qian Daoliu could naturally see the strength of Chen Hong's mental power.)

It doesn't look like a martial soul at all!

ChiuChiu realized that everyone came to see ChiuChiu's Douluo Continent fantasies. ChiuChiu doesn't know how she came up with these ideas. Hmm, it must be influenced by her past life's memories. Ah! Ah!! The sleeping beast within her is about to awaken!
