Douluo Continent: A Man of Unparalleled Talent and Heaven-Defying Comprehension

Chapter 130 The Fall Plan

Su Yu had also tried the effects of the power of faith.

Of the 10,000 points of Faith Power awarded in the first test, Su Yu consumed a total of 3,000 points, of which 2,000 points were used to increase the age of his Soul Rings.

According to Elder Yi's assessment, if one is skilled in using the power of faith and maximizes its effect, one point can increase the lifespan of a soul ring by approximately two years.

The second test has now rewarded Su Yu with another 50,000 points of faith power. Combined with the approximately 4,000 points of faith power he gained in the Burial Valley, Su Yu now has about 60,000 points of faith power left.

That's enough to upgrade any one of the first four spirit rings to the 100,000-year level!

Su Yu naturally chose to upgrade his fourth spirit ring.

He mobilized the power of faith, integrated it into his fourth soul ring, and nurtured its spirituality.

"Brother Yu, the white flames you used back then were incredibly powerful! They were practically the bane of evil spirit masters!"

Huo Yuhao now recalls that pure white flame; its terrifying purification ability can be said to be a means specifically designed to counter evil soul masters.

Su Yu didn't know how to explain the existence of necromancy.

Fortunately, Huo Yuhao had his own imagination.

"Brother Yu, how did you cultivate your soul skills?"

After witnessing Su Yu's Purifying Flame, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor constantly reminded Huo Yuhao in their spiritual sea to learn the cultivation methods of soul skills from Su Yu.

Based on Su Yu's past performance, many of his cultivation methods were not simply applicable to himself; he was able to summarize an entire process, fully understand the essence of cultivation, and thus form a system.

This is also why they urged Huo Yuhao.

After all, although Su Yu possessed a soul skill with extreme vitality and purification power that Huo Yuhao couldn't learn, Huo Yuhao could learn Su Yu's approach to developing soul skills and the techniques involved.

"Soul Skill Development?"

Su Yu understood Huo Yuhao's meaning; Huo Yuhao was relating the purifying fire to Su Yu's soul skill development.

To be honest, this is indeed related to Su Yu's soul skill.

When he used it, Su Yu used his second soul skill, Purification Power, to unleash Purification Fire.

Even though it was his first time using the necromancy Purification Fire, Su Yu had already gained some insight into his second soul skill because of the time he used it to purify the Blade of Life.

His subsequent development of his second soul skill allowed him to directly fuse the soul skill with the necromancy of the Purifying Fire in the Burial Soul Valley.

It's not wrong to say it's his skill development technique.

In terms of developing soul skills, Su Yu does indeed have his own unique skills and experience.

Huo Yuhao wants to learn?

Su Yu did not refuse, but he still needed to see how the kid performed.

Even now, Huo Yuhao has not actually made any significant contributions to the Sun Moon Empire or the Mingde Hall; he has only been reaping the benefits.

Su Yu even took Huo Yuhao to enjoy some of the God of Life's benefits just now.

If they don't perform well, Su Yu won't be able to continue investing.

If it all goes down the drain, that would be a real problem.

Su Yu, in particular, was well aware that Huo Yun'er was still in Tang San's hands.

This is absolutely devastating!

The fact that the God-King hasn't yet reacted to Su Yu in a fit of rage is probably because he has Huo Yun'er by his side.

"Regarding the development of soul skills, I can only say that you must first master your own soul skills. If you don't even have a deep enough understanding of your own soul skills, there's no way you can do any additional development."

First, practice your own soul skills. When you can unleash the full power of your soul skills without relying on soul rings, then you've entered the beginner stage.

"What?" Huo Yuhao exclaimed in surprise.

Is it really that difficult to just get started?

Just listening to it, Su Yu's technique for developing soul skills sounds incredibly difficult.

Not relying on spirit rings does not mean unleashing spirit skills without the spirit rings being concealed, but rather truly relying entirely on one's own control over spirit power and mental power to unleash the power of spirit skills.

This is no simple matter.

Huo Yuhao was so surprised not only because it was a request that went against common sense.

In the Douluo Continent, Soul Masters' cultivation follows strict rules, with very little innovation. Truly self-created Soul Skills are extremely rare.

There are very few ways to utilize soul skills that sound like a thankless and difficult task, so naturally no one tries them.

And directions that no one tries are often considered impossible.

I don't know what kind of ingrained way of thinking it is.

It wasn't just that; Huo Yuhao was mainly surprised because Su Yu's request was truly difficult.

Soul skills are not just about the operation of soul power and mental power, but also the techniques for unleashing them.

This truly requires both intuition and skill to achieve.

During the operation of soul power, the soul master's will erupts to control the activation state of soul power, and may even require the power of some rule to be invoked out of thin air.

The soul skills granted by the soul ring do not have particularly clear patterns like the core magic array of a soul tool.

Most of them have been simplified, and during the execution, the soul power characteristics of a certain key point will be achieved through direct association with the rules.

In other words, if you want to achieve the effect of a soul skill without relying on soul rings, you must first restore these nodes and achieve the same effect by circulating soul power and mental power. You can also embed them into the soul power circulation route of the entire soul skill.

Alternatively, one can connect directly to the rules through personal experience.

However, it is extremely difficult to perfectly replicate a soul skill without relying on soul rings.

Su Yu has his own cheat code that enables him to do this. Huo Yuhao also has a cheat code, but it's not in this aspect.

However, Huo Yuhao is never one to give up easily.

Since Su Yu said so, he also planned to try his best.

Why insist on comprehending and executing something you could simply do with your spirit rings? If Huo Yuhao hadn't seen the effect of Su Yu's purifying flame, he would have given up immediately. But since he knew it was effective, it wasn't a completely worthless effort.

However, considering the cost-effectiveness factor, he will not place all his hopes on the development of soul skills.

After all, even without developing his skills, he would hardly lack any soul skills. With two martial souls, he would have at least eighteen soul skills, giving him a richer soul skill library than Su Yu.

The two did not return to Mingdu.

After committing such a major act in the Valley of Burial Souls, their return to Mingdu for a few days before disappearing again inevitably arouses suspicion.

Su Yu was unaware that Scorpion Tiger Douluo had defined this incident as an attack and targeted the Douluo Three Kingdoms.

"Brother Yu, the Heavenly Soul Empire is just ahead."

Huo Yuhao had previously traveled to the far north on his own and passed through the Heavenly Soul Empire, but because he was in a hurry, he did not stop to explore properly.

He looked quite surprised as he followed Su Yu across the border to Tianjia City.

However, Tianjia City was not as prosperous as Mingdu, and Huo Yuhao was only surprised for a short while before recovering.

Tianjia City is no longer under martial law as it was when Su Yu left last time.

However, Su Yu felt an uncomfortable aura once again.

Unlike the last time, which was so intense, Su Yu only felt a nauseous aura after entering the city.

"Third test: Investigate and stop the Holy Spirit Cult's plan to corrupt; reward: a divinely granted Soul Ring."

A prompt from the God of Life appeared in Su Yu's mind.

The Holy Spirit Cult's plans?

A divinely bestowed soul ring?

There are eight tests in total. The divine soul ring is only given in the third test, which seems a bit late. The Sea God's test can give it in the first test, but that's not how it works.

Su Yu intended to use this divinely bestowed soul ring himself. It would take at least 500,000 years to form, and the energy consumption involved would be considerable.

Even if he doesn't use it himself, he would need to absorb at least 100,000 years' worth of resources around him.

Kong Deming is currently missing a spirit ring. Even with the burden of many 100,000-year-old spirit rings, he can still hold on for at least 200,000 years, right?

After all, absorbing a divinely bestowed soul ring truly depends solely on one's physical attributes, and it's also extremely safe.

Putting aside the reward itself, Su Yu returned to the content of the mission.

The meaning of the mission is easy to understand: the Holy Spirit Cult is tempting Soul Masters to fall into depravity.

Su Yu's mission is to save the other party.

"There were five evil spirit masters when I came last time, and I killed them all. But this time I still found some traces of evil spirit masters. The Holy Spirit Cult has not retaliated against Tianjia City. They have been holding back for so long. Their plan must be big."

With the guidance of the God of Life, Su Yu guessed that the five evil soul masters he had killed last time were also carrying out this plan. He wondered if the fact that it had been delayed until now was also due to his interference last time.

"Yuhao, we've got something to do."

Traveling aimlessly with just two people can be a bit boring, so this divine test came at a very opportune time.

"Brother Yu, what's up?"

Su Yu pointed to his brow.

"The third test?"

"Yes, it's about evil spirit masters."

Huo Yuhao didn't ask for details. Apart from the test that required him to reach level 50 in cultivation, it was best not to spread the other tests. Otherwise, someone might cause trouble for him and he would never be able to complete them in his lifetime.

"Evil Soul Master"

Having witnessed the situation in the Valley of Burial Souls, Huo Yuhao felt a surge of anger upon hearing about evil soul masters again.

The fact that the three Zhongli brothers used the souls of soul beasts didn't resonate with him deeply, but it still greatly shocked him.

But when he heard Su Yu say that the evil soul masters he had killed in Tianjia City had collected human souls, Huo Yuhao felt a nameless rage.

The cruelty and evil of the Holy Spirit Cult are so great that everyone who hears about it would want to grind all the evil spirit masters to dust on the spot.

"Yuhao, this is the result of the collapse of order."

Su Yu noticed Huo Yuhao's anger and took the opportunity to sow discord among them.

"Ten thousand years ago, the Spirit Hall was spread throughout every corner of the continent, and they were responsible for the awakening of all spirit masters. At that time, evil spirit masters were definitely not as rampant as they are now. Back then, evil spirit masters were driven to the Slaughter City, but as the Slaughter City was destroyed and the Spirit Hall was overthrown, evil spirit masters slowly began to run rampant."

"But, Brother Yu, isn't Shrek Academy responsible for hunting down evil soul masters?"

"That's individual heroism. Shrek Academy only has a few people. How could they control all the evil soul masters on the entire continent? Back then, even a small town had a branch of the Spirit Hall. All the data on awakened soul masters were in the hands of the Spirit Hall."

The acquisition of each spirit ring was also recorded, which was an important factor in the Spirit Hall's ability to eliminate evil spirit masters at the time.

This was the first time Huo Yuhao had received education from the entire continent.

"And Shrek Academy, with only a few people hunting down evil spirit masters, what other purpose do they serve besides showcasing their heroism?"

"But aren't the leaders of the major empires and cities also trying to stop the hunting of evil soul masters?" Huo Yuhao asked, puzzled.

"Hmph, a disorganized mess. Without a unified force to stop them, without the support of order, how can they possibly be dedicated to their work? Besides, the interests involved are quite significant."

Furthermore, the awakening of martial souls is also a matter of distributing benefits; there is no unified awakening process, and it is all handled by unaffiliated soul masters. Even evil martial souls cannot be informed immediately.

Another point.

"Yuhao, you need to know that a large portion of evil spirit masters awaken their martial spirits after the age of six."

"."

Huo Yuhao remained silent.

In that sense, he was actually quite lucky. He was fortunate to be born in the Duke's mansion, avoiding being indiscriminately killed by evil spirit masters, and he was also qualified to awaken his martial spirit at the age of six.

How ridiculous.

Is this what happens when order collapses?

Why doesn't Shrek do anything about it?

What Su Yu said was about the current situation of the Douluo Three Kingdoms, so Huo Yuhao naturally thought of this holy land of soul masters in the Douluo Three Kingdoms.

"How can we manage it? The survival of the academy is the most important thing. What can we manage when it's a place that compromises with all the nobles just to stay afloat and for the sake of glory?"

compromise?

A letter of recommendation from the city lord could even allow a nobleman to gain entry directly for prestige.

All of these are compromises.

Some say that Shrek Academy's inner campus is the real Shrek Academy, while the outer campus is simply a campus jointly developed by various noble families.

It appears to be a mechanism that first gathers geniuses together and then selects the next genius from among them.

But in practice, it would be utterly foolish.

From the very beginning, the definition of genius was set on the ability to obtain a letter of recommendation from the city lord.

Even those exceptional cases who enter based solely on genuine talent, without letters of recommendation, are destroyed by the machinations of the nobility.

Dai Huabin dared to attack even his core disciples.

It can be seen.

Most importantly, the college's own teachers are aware of the existence of this system. So, what kind of mindset do the college's teachers have when teaching students from other colleges?

周漪

The fact that a foreign language department homeroom teacher could survive is not necessarily just because Fan Yu, who is backed by her, is powerful enough.

Students from the School of Foreign Languages ​​can do whatever they want.

He comforted himself with what he knew about the true nature of the Foreign Languages ​​Department, and then faced the students of the Foreign Languages ​​Department with a perfunctory attitude.

The system has become corrupted.

Huo Yuhao underwent a baptism of thought by Su Yu.

"So, Brother Yu, you believe that a unified order is the guarantee of eliminating sin?"

"No, sin can never be completely cleansed; that's human nature. Order is merely the means to eliminate evil to the greatest extent possible."

It might attract other insects, but this is the best way.

Huo Yuhao tried his best to accept Su Yu's thoughts and understand his words.

As they chatted, the two arrived at a dilapidated courtyard.

The lingering smell of blood and the faint traces of resentment indicated that a malevolent spirit master had been here not long ago.
