Douluo Continent: The Heavenly Book Transforms into Mortals

Chapter 84 Dugu Bo: I've learned something new (Please subscribe!!!)

Unlike the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, this place is rich in life energy, and most of the plants growing here are medicinal herbs, with almost no poisonous plants.

Medicine and toxicology are inseparable.

Dugu Bo specializes in poisons, but his research in pharmacology is also quite advanced, so it's normal for him to have his own private medicinal garden.

"If we're talking about plant-type soul beasts with life attributes, this Earthly Ginseng should be very suitable for Old Jerry."

Plant-type soul beasts are rare, but if they have enough years, the chances of them mutating into soul beasts will increase.

It is quite rare for a creature to reach the level of a thousand years without mutating into a true soul beast.

The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye is an exception.

While the environment there is conducive to the cultivation of plant-type soul beasts, it also inhibits the development of intelligence. Without intelligence, there is no instinct, so how can one develop soul power and become a soul beast?

Su Wen looked in the direction Dugu Bo was pointing, where there was a huge ginseng that was tightly bound and exuded an alluring aroma.

Earth ginseng is a highly nourishing substance, very beneficial for replenishing the vitality of the elderly. It can also be used to quickly restore soul power. A small piece of the root of this thousand-year-old Earth ginseng can quickly restore the soul power of a Soul Venerable.

"That's it!"

Su Wen could tell the age of the Earth Origin Ginseng at a glance.

Fifteen hundred years.

It's older than the age of my second spirit ring back then.

However, Su Wen believed in Old Jerry, who had taken the herb.

That's just a difference in conditions; there's nothing we can do about it.

Everyone else is living off their parents, but Su Wen is the one being lived off by his parents.

"Grandpa, you can just go up and cut off its main root." Su Wen pointed to the main root for old Jerry.

In his excitement, old Jerry quickly grabbed a dagger and stabbed at the target.

A purple soul ring rose up.

Old Jerry has entered the process of absorbing soul rings.

Dugu Bo and Su Wen stood guard over Old Jerry.

"Has Old Jerry not reached his physical limit?" Dugu Bo wondered, seeing that Old Jerry did not exhibit the blood-splattered scene that Su Wen witnessed when absorbing the soul ring.

"Of course, Grandpa is so old, and he's just a food-type Soul Master, there's no need for him to suffer so much."

If you can easily absorb nutrients beyond your current level, then you can absorb nutrients beyond your current level.

Su Wen, in any case, did not intend to let old Jerry absorb the nutrients at his limit like he did.

An hour later, Old Jerry opened his eyes, and the purple spirit ring was now on top of his only yellow spirit ring.

"Grandpa, you must be careful not to release your martial spirit in the future, and even if you do release your martial spirit, you must control yourself and not release your spirit rings."

The Soul Fusion Technique also allows one to release the Martial Soul without releasing the Soul Ring.

"Of course, if someone is around me and gives me advance notice, they can also release their abilities to mislead others."

Su Wen released his martial spirit.

Strangely, at this moment, the four spirit rings around his body were one yellow and three purple.

Then it turned into two yellows and two purples.

Dugu Bo was not surprised by the change in the color of Su Wen's soul ring.

This was a replica of a snow silkworm that Su Wen found on his way back from the frozen forest.

What surprised him was that Su Wen's martial spirit had not changed.

"Xiao Wen, you've already managed to maintain your martial soul's original form and only use the copied soul skills?"

To be precise, Su Wen's copying is to copy someone else's martial soul, then change the book's martial soul into the corresponding martial soul, and then use the other party's soul skill.

However, it now seems that Su Wen can simply use his soul skills.

"To be precise, I can't do it yet." Su Wen shook his head and said, "It's just that the Snow Silkworm is too weak, so it's easier for me to develop it and I can do this much, but other replications still can't avoid changes in the Martial Soul."

Even so, it at least proves that this direction is feasible, it just requires more effort in development.

Dugu Bo nodded, feeling that this was also a certain milestone.

"This Earth Ginseng corpse is also a good thing." Su Wen put away the Earth Ginseng corpse.

Even though there's a Yin-Yang duality eye for ice and fire, you can't just throw away a thousand-year-old Earthly Ginseng, it's just something you can easily do.

"Grandpa, tell me about your experience during the absorption process, and I'll write it down." Su Wen interviewed old Jerry.

This Soul Ascension Technique was a method that Su Wen explored based on his own skills in absorbing Soul Rings beyond his level.

There's no other way, because it involves the infiltration from the Soul Master's body into the Martial Soul Space, which involves all parts of the Soul Master's body. To achieve the effect through the circulation of Soul Power, not only does the Soul Power need to circulate throughout the body, but special structures also need to be formed in each part to compress the Soul Ring's Soul Power into the Martial Soul Space.

In fact, Su Wen said that it is quite simple to break it down. It is just dozens of small cycles of soul power circulation with different structures throughout the body connected into a large cycle.

However, Su Wen was still unclear about the specific effects of this technique.

He wants to investigate how ordinary Soul Masters feel when using it.

This is also one of the reasons why we couldn't find a thousand-year soul ring that Old Jerry could withstand at his limit.

After completing the investigation, Su Wen looked at Dugu Bo.

"Let's go. If Old Jerry's second soul skill is to restore soul power, then his third soul ring will have to be a healing type. I've actually seen healing soul beasts in this Sunset Forest before."

Su Wen praised Dugu Bo.

Under Dugu Bo's guidance, Old Jerry's third spirit ring was quickly obtained.

Five thousand years.

This time, it was already the limit for Old Jerry, but because of the Soul Ascension Technique, he was able to easily absorb the Soul Ring.

The Temple of Martial Spirits.

Dugu Bo brought Su Wen and Old Jerry to register their Soul Master information.

"Huh?" The deacon in charge of the inspection exclaimed in surprise.

Old Jerry's Soul Master certificate states that he became a Soul Master more than three years ago, but now he looks like he's at level 25.

"My grandfather had been stuck at level 20 for a long time because he hadn't absorbed any spirit rings. This time, after I helped him absorb the spirit rings, he went straight to level 25."

The steward remained silent.

It's only been less than four years, how long can he stay in jail?

However, he didn't investigate further.

Poison Douluo is not someone to be trifled with.

The steward quickly added the record of having become a Great Soul Master to Old Jerry's Soul Master certificate record and returned the record to Old Jerry.

Su Wen also stepped forward to take the test.

"Level 39!" the deacon exclaimed.

He proved it to the Soul Master. In just a moment, his brain frantically calculated ten times before he was sure he hadn't made a mistake. Su Wen was only fourteen years old.

But why are you only registering now?

"After I obtained my third spirit ring, I went into seclusion to cultivate under the guidance of my senior, so I haven't registered yet," Su Wen said.

The steward glanced at the formidable Poison Douluo, then obediently registered Su Wen and returned the certificate to him.

Along with that came the Soul Master subsidy that Su Wen hadn't been able to claim.

"You kid, you actually know how to use your simulated soul skill like this." Dugu Bo said, expressing his amazement.

It can simulate the color of its own spirit rings, and it can even simulate the light of the crystal ball used to test spirit power.

Actually, if you use your mental power to see through everything just now, the crystal ball is emitting a very strong light.

"This is also a development of soul skills."

The three of them headed towards the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.

I'll update 10,000 words a day, which is five updates a day. I'll try to find my rhythm these next couple of days and see what's the most convenient way to update.

There will most likely be one update after midnight, one update in the morning, and three updates between 8 pm and 8 pm.
