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

Chapter 85 Rune Levels (Please subscribe!!!)

Without hesitation, Xuan Ziwen gave Su Yu the Star Staff as well.

He was already racking his brains trying to figure out how to repay Su Yu for his rune technique, so naturally he wouldn't be stingy.

Besides, this was a failed work to begin with.

As for Su Yu making a name for himself with this failed work, Xuan Ziwen was actually quite happy.

Su Yu was satisfied as he stored the Star Staff and its blueprints in his storage soul tool.

After bidding farewell to Xuan Ziwen, Su Yu returned to his dormitory and took out his Star Staff.

"The Power of the Stars."

The power of stars has a wide range of applications.

Su Yu's first soul skill is to use the power of stars to convert into life force, thereby restoring soul power and physical strength.

The power of stars can also be used to unleash amplification-type soul skills, and can even be used to temper the body during cultivation.

One of the functions of the Star Staff is to mobilize the power of the stars. On this basis, there are several core magic arrays that work on the power of the stars, giving it two major derivative abilities.

Starry Sky Technique: A comprehensive enhancement of a Soul Master's various attributes.

Star Guardian: Uses the power of stars to form a protective barrier.

These two abilities are basically based on the effects of some support-type Soul Masters' Soul Skills.

Su Yu took out the blueprints that contained the core magic array.

As a level seven soul tool, the core magic array now features additional overlapping engraving techniques. Su Yu couldn't learn them; he simply disassembled the entire core magic array of the Star Staff and extracted the patterns that provided the effects he needed.

"star"!

Three days later, he finished sketching the character "star".

"The power of stars is just one type of energy, especially in terms of defense; soul power and vital energy can do the same."

Su Yu added some of the Star Guardian's patterns to the "Guardian" character.

Su Yu had previously made a vague classification of rune levels.

Recently, with the increasing number of runes, he has made a more specific comparison for convenience.

Su Yu was lazy, so he didn't give it a separate name. Instead, he compared the effects of the runes to the age of the soul rings.

The grades are white, yellow, purple, black, and red.

The runes that were just drawn with pure spiritual power are of the white level.

With the blessing of purple aura or vitality, one can be directly promoted to the yellow level.

Perfecting the rune patterns can also enhance the rune's effect.

Even if Su Yu's "Condensation" and "Gathering" runes were only individually complex, they had already reached the purple level. With the amplification of purple energy and vitality, the effect was at least comparable to the soul skills of a five-thousand-year soul ring.

The "Sword" rune, enhanced by purple aura and vitality, also possesses a purple rank.

The "Life" character is Su Yu's forte, representing vitality, and he has gained the most insights into it. Even the one he recently created has already reached the purple level.

As for the other runes, they are at the Yellow level, which is about six or seven hundred years old.

After incorporating numerous Star Guardian patterns, the "Guardian" character's corresponding effect has been enhanced by at least two hundred years.

Moreover, Su Yu's understanding of the Star Guardian's patterns was not yet complete, nor had he fully integrated its effects.

It can be said that there is no need to worry about insufficient reference for the "protect" character text before the purple level.

With the official grading of runes, Su Yu also had to face another problem.

That's the lifespan of the Soul Rings.

As soul power increases, the effects of general soul skills will also improve.

In particular, the deeper a Soul Master's control and development of their Soul Rings and Soul Skills, the more significant the effect they can have, even on Title Douluos.

However, this kind of improvement is too difficult, requiring the Soul Master to constantly enrich the content of the Soul Skill with their own skills while enduring the age limit of the Soul Ring.

Throughout the entire process, it can be said that apart from the soul skill itself being the seed of the soul ring, everything else was created by the soul master himself.

Su Yu suddenly questioned whether it was necessary to increase the age of the spirit ring.

So what if the age limit is increased?

Why don't I just develop the soul skill myself?

As long as the effects of my soul skills keep up with my pace, why bother to increase the age of my soul rings?

"I thought it would be a long time before you noticed this problem."

Old Yi appeared when Su Yu was confused.

In his research on the Martial Soul system, he naturally noticed the relationship between the duration of Soul Rings and the effects of Soul Skills.

"Soul rings are integrated into the martial soul; they are similar to instinctive abilities that you can directly use no matter what."

When you reach a higher level and fully digest the existence of the soul rings, that is, after you become a seven-ring soul saint as your teacher mentioned.

At that time, you will fully integrate the spirit rings into yourself, and that will be your foundation.

Insights need to be recorded.

Just like your understanding of condensation and aggregation, it only has an effect when it is transformed into real patterns and recorded in the form of runes.

Otherwise, it's just empty talk.

Perhaps in battle you can use your own understanding to manipulate soul power in a specific way to achieve the corresponding effect.

But that's a skill, not a state of being.

Skill and realm.

Mr. Yi summarized the most essential difference.

If you've mastered it but haven't found a vehicle to carry your insights, then it's just a technique.

When you completely entrust it to a vessel that belongs entirely to you, that is the realm of enlightenment.

"Is a Soul Master's Soul Power Realm determined by the amount of Soul Power they currently possess?"

No.

However, the characteristics of soul power can reflect a soul master's level.

The level of a Soul Master is essentially the extent to which their body can accommodate Soul Power.

Once a Title Douluo has exhausted all their soul power, their soul power recovery speed and upper limit will always be higher than those of lower-level soul masters.

It's because his body itself bore witness to his soul power cultivation process, embodying the experience and accumulation accumulated during that process.

Su Yu understood.

"You mean that while creating your own soul skill has the same effect, it is ultimately like a rootless duckweed."

Only when I inscribe my self-created soul skills into my soul rings can I be considered to have reached a higher level and truly digested them.

Elder Yi nodded and said, "That's right. And the age limit of a spirit ring means the upper limit of your understanding of spirit skills that you can record."

"Therefore, increasing the age of a spirit ring is still meaningful."

Su Yu did not mention the direction of recording his self-created soul skills entirely in the form of runes.

After Mr. Yi's explanations, he had already vaguely summarized three ways of carrying.

Martial spirit is a combination of spiritual power and physical body.

Which of the three should I choose?

No, I want them all!

After a brief study of the Star Staff, Su Yu began researching the technology for sealing baby bottles.

"I see. They added resonance, convergence, and absorption arrays, and incidentally changed the structural order of the baby bottle."

Su Yu quickly figured out the core technology of sealing baby bottles.

It not only keeps the soul power in the bottle running and stored at all times, but also maintains the characteristics of the soul power through resonance.

It gathers vital energy to replenish the energy lost from the soul power.

Soul power can essentially be seen as a product of primordial energy being branded. During the process of injecting it into the baby bottle, the core magic array inside the bottle will blur this brand and then store it.

Even a Soul Master who is no less capable than someone who can recharge a baby bottle can quickly refine the Soul Power within it.
