Chapter 344 Mysterious Eye Technique! [Please subscribe! Please vote!]

The mental network hub used by over a million sea creatures on the Sea Soul Islands is a torso soul bone named "Turtle," which Qian Daoliu brought to Chen Hong from Soto City last month. It was one of the three soul bones Qian Daoliu had previously given to Chen Hong. Due to the large number of netizens in Soto City, it didn't take long to cultivate one using mental essence. Like the previous "Earth," "Turtle" is somewhat dim-witted and requires extensive learning to develop sufficient intelligence.

Before Chen Hong left Soto City, the central hub of the entire Soto City's mental network was jointly managed by [Earth] and [Turtle]. The two noobs barely managed to keep the Soto City mental network running normally.

If the "Earth" of Soto City doesn't go on strike, Chen Hong expects that after he returns, he should be able to cultivate the "Angel" bone spirit that Qian Daoliu needs.

The bone spirit codenamed "Angel" is one of the three soul bones Qian Daoliu gave to Chen Hong. Although it's called "Angel," it's definitely not the Angelic Divine Armor that Qian Daoliu considers his lifeblood. Instead, it's a soul bone from a soul beast called the Emerald Swan. Because its soul power properties are very similar to those of an angel, Qian Daoliu named it "Angel."

Qian Daoliu gave Chen Hong a total of three soul bones: the torso bone of a ten-thousand-year-old Xuanming Turtle codenamed "Turtle", the torso bone of a ten-thousand-year-old Emerald Swan codenamed "Angel", and the right arm bone of a Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex codenamed "Thunder".

Chen Hong initially thought he was going to create three bone spirits for Qian Daoliu. Although it would take some time, Chen Hong thought he could still agree. However, Qian Daoliu eventually told Chen Hong, with a mix of amusement and exasperation, that he only wanted the [Angel] bone; the remaining [Turtle] and [Thunder] were for Chen Hong as payment.

"In short, you don't need to rush the Bone Spirit System for now. That thing needs to be trained slowly. If you find any soul bones later, don't rush to absorb them. Send them to me, and I'll give each of your ships a Bone Spirit System. Wouldn't that be great?"

Chen Hong hadn't gone back to "harvest crops" for several months. He looked in the direction of Douluo Continent, feeling somewhat troubled.

"Understood, Young Master." After receiving Chen Hong's explanation, Hague pondered for a moment, then respectfully replied to Chen Hong.

Despite the immense power and wealth of the Sea Soul Islands, getting them to produce a single soul bone would require sacrificing an arm or a leg. Basically, when Hague's men acquire soul bones, they prioritize absorbing them immediately rather than leaving them for the enemy.

Only special sects like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, with its long history and abundant wealth, possess spare, unabsorbed soul bones.

The three soul bones Qian Daoliu gave to Chen Hong were all taken from Qian Daoliu's own private coffers. As for the Spirit Hall, many of its titled Douluo elders didn't even have all the soul bones they needed. The fact that the Spirit Hall could even stockpile soul bones speaks volumes about their capabilities. Didn't Bibi Dong face immense difficulties in bestowing soul bones upon the Golden Generation? If it weren't for the pretext of the Soul Master Competition, the Spirit Hall elders would never have agreed to Bibi Dong's indiscriminate distribution of soul bones.

If the Golden Generation wants to acquire soul bones on a large scale, they need to wait for the older generation of soul masters to begin to fall, and their soul bones will return to the Spirit Hall and then be distributed.

(One reason Tang Hao returned the soul bone to the Clear Sky Sect despite losing his arm and leg was that he was worried about his own recklessness causing the soul bone to fall into the wrong hands. Without the psychological burden of the sect's soul bone, he could die wherever he wanted, which was extremely free.)

"Alright, let's head back. Judging by the time, the Demon Orca clan should be arriving soon. If they don't arrive soon, I won't tolerate them anymore. I'll leave when it's time."

Seeing that the Sea Soul Masters on the deck had gradually collected all the detection buoys, Chen Hong sent a request to The Hague to return to port.

"Okay, Young Master." Hague nodded, urged his Sea Soul Masters to board the ship quickly, and then led his men to start maneuvering the Sea Dragon to turn the rudder and return to port.

Everyone on the ship busied themselves, but Chen Hong gazed at the distant horizon where the sea and sky merged into one, and murmured to himself:

"Without the cultivation cheat, my soul power has only increased by one level in the past two or three months. I'm only at level forty-two now. Damn, I'm trending towards becoming useless again. Hmm, I can only hope the setup here will give me enough surprises, otherwise these past six months of cultivation will have been a complete waste."

"I'm only level 42. I wonder what the soul power levels of those overpowered characters like Tang San are? Especially Tang San, who possesses twin martial souls. I heard that His Holiness the Pope only recently became a Title Douluo and then directly entered the Super Douluo realm, plus all sorts of random soul bone boosts. He's practically an overpowered character!"

"I originally thought I would be able to break through to 48 or 49 in soul power directly, but I unexpectedly embarked on the path of soul ring imprinting. Even so, my soul power should still be around 44 or 45, but I don't know if this is a blessing or a curse?"

Chen Hong leaned against the railing on the warship's deck, rubbed his eyes, and the world in front of him instantly lost its color, turning into a void of gray.

Mysterious and noble purple divine patterns slowly spread across Chen Hong's black eyes, eventually forming a mysterious, indistinguishable symmetrical pattern on the whites of his eyes.

hum!

The next instant, Chen Hong's vision went white, his head slumped, and he staggered, his body going limp against the railing. Fortunately, Chen Hong managed to grab the railing in time, stabilizing himself and preventing himself from falling into the sea.

"Young Master! Are you alright?!" As the focus of everyone's attention, Chen Hong's unusual behavior naturally made the Sea Soul Masters who had been dispatched by The Hague to act as guards feel nervous and couldn't help but want to go up and support Chen Hong.

However, Chen Hong stopped them all at the end, and shook his head slightly at the Sea Soul Masters around him who were concerned about him. He rubbed his slightly swollen forehead and said in a slightly tired voice, "I'm fine, don't worry about me. I'm probably just tired lately. I'll go back to my room and rest for a bit."

After saying that, Chen Hong walked towards his private room on the ship, under the hesitant gazes of the worried sea spirit masters around him.

Soon, news that Chen Hong might be unwell reached The Hague. The latter was startled and immediately put down his work, ran to Chen Hong's room, hesitated, raised his finger as if to knock on the door, but was worried about disturbing Chen Hong's rest.

Then Chen Hong's slightly tired voice came from inside: "Don't worry about me, I'm just resting for a while. I'm just a little tired. Call me when we get there."
