Chapter 34: The Artificial Soul Ring and Soul Bone Project

"Oh? Where did we say something wrong?"

The Azure Bull Python frowned in confusion, but the boiling killing intent in its heart suddenly stopped. It wanted to hear what Luo had to say on the battlefield.

Xiao Wu and Er Ming looked at Luo with blank expressions, but what they saw was Luo's confident smile.

"You say I might pose a threat to the spirit beast race in the future? But I'd like to ask you, what is the purpose of humans slaughtering spirit beasts?"

Instead of giving a direct answer, Luo posed another question to Daming and Erming.

Without hesitation, Da Ming replied, "That's naturally for the soul rings and souls of soul beasts..."

The conversation abruptly ended there. Da Ming looked at Luo, whose smile was growing even brighter, and he already vaguely understood what Luo was thinking.

"That's right, humans slaughter soul beasts to obtain your soul rings and soul bones! But I'm different! I only need to use my domain ability to remove the soul rings and soul bones from the soul beasts without harming their lives, without having to kill them."

Luo spoke eloquently, revealing his future plans for the first time in front of Xiao Wu and her two siblings.

"Furthermore, I have a particularly grand plan in mind: can I use my domain abilities to develop artificial spirit rings and spirit bones? This way, the conflict between humans and spirit beasts can be completely resolved!"

"Artificial spirit rings, spirit bones???"

Not only Da Ming and Er Ming, but even Xiao Wu stared at Luo with wide eyes and a look of shock on her face.

Luo nodded slightly, and in an almost whispered tone, exclaimed, "That's right, it's artificial spirit rings and spirit bones! Once this problem is solved, humanity will no longer need to slaughter spirit beasts for its own selfish desires! At that time, humans and spirit beasts can coexist peacefully!"

"But... but how is this possible? Artificial spirit rings and spirit bones... aren't spirit rings and spirit bones naturally occurring within spirit beasts? Can these be artificially created?"

Da Ming immediately retorted, but unconsciously fell into deep thought, and the killing intent in his heart gradually subsided.

"Why is that impossible? As long as I can perfectly utilize my 'surgical domain,' anything is possible! After all, before this, who could have imagined that someone could remove the spirit rings and spirit bones from spirit beasts without killing them?"

Without giving Da Ming and Er Ming time to refute, Luo continued:

"Even if artificial spirit rings and spirit bones cannot be achieved, I have another plan."

"What plan?"

Da Ming asked subconsciously, completely absorbed in Luo's thoughts, having completely forgotten about killing Luo.

"Level 100 to Godhood!"

"Wh...what? Become a god?"

Da Ming, Er Ming, and Xiao Wu exclaimed in unison, looking at the boy standing between them with disbelief.

"I suspect that the reason why spirit rings are formed within your spirit beasts is likely due to human manipulation behind the scenes!"

Luo's expression instantly turned extremely cold, and his words sent chills down Xiao Wu's and the others' spines, making them feel a chill run down their spines.

"Actually... I felt this way when I removed your spirit rings and spirit bones! Didn't you, Xiao Wu, and Er Ming, feel that losing your spirit rings and spirit bones had no effect on you?"

"If that's the case—then why do spirit beasts develop useless spirit rings? And... why do spirit masters need spirit rings to unlock the next stage of cultivation? Isn't there some connection between these things?"

Luo, expressionless, voiced his guess, causing Xiao Wu and the others to gasp in shock, contributing to the fight against global warming.

"So...so you think the reason why soul beasts can develop soul rings and soul bones is because...because they were affected by..."

Da Ming pondered for a long time, but ultimately lacked the courage to utter the second half of his sentence. However, everyone understood what he truly wanted to say.

"That's right! So I was thinking, if I could also reach level 100 and become a god, becoming one of the top few in power, wouldn't I be able to figure out the reasons behind it all? At that time, both the artificial soul ring and soul bone project and easing the conflict between humans and soul beasts would have a very high chance of success!"

"Then how can you be so sure you can become a god?" Da Ming asked hurriedly, his expression showing some excitement, clearly shocked by Luo's idea.

"With my talent!"

When Luo said this, he pointed to himself with his right thumb, a smug and confident smile appearing on his face.

"My innate soul power is level seven. After fusing with the external soul bone of the Dragon Slayer Sword Tail, the Yama Martial Soul has been upgraded to a Martial Soul that is comparable to top-tier Martial Souls such as the Clear Sky Hammer and the Seven Kill Sword!"

"More importantly... I'm only seven years old and I'm already a level 25 Great Soul Master, and my first and second soul rings are unprecedented 100,000-year soul rings! If you, Da Ming, are willing to give me your 100,000-year soul ring and soul bone, then my third soul ring will still be a 100,000-year soul ring!"

The latest novel is first published here!

"With my incredibly luxurious soul ring and soul bone configuration, I just can't understand—if I can't become a god at level 100, who else in this world can achieve that?"

After a pause, Luo raised his head high, his narrow eyes fixed on Da Ming's eyes, trying his best to make his tone extremely sincere.

"Therefore... I sincerely hope that you two, Da Ming and Er Ming, can help me! If I can really reach level 100 and become a god, I will never forget your contributions and will do my best to successfully research the artificial soul ring and soul bone project!"

"If...if I can't reach level 100 and become a god in the end, when I become a Limit Douluo in the future, I can still use my domain ability to alleviate the conflict between humans and soul beasts!"

"What do you think?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the air fell silent, with only the increasingly heavy breathing of Da Ming and Er Ming being heard.

…………

At this moment, it is afternoon.

The dazzling sunlight filtered through the dappled shadows of the trees, casting patches of light on the ground. Luo and Xiao Wu were walking on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest and would soon be leaving it.

"Luo, what's the effect of your second soul skill?" Xiao Wu skipped along beside Luo and casually asked him a question.

Luo Gang opened his mouth to answer, but suddenly his expression turned serious, and he grabbed Xiao Wu's wrist, stopping her in her tracks.

"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Wu looked puzzled and turned her head to ask Luo what was wrong, but he quickly pulled her behind him.

Suddenly, five Soul Masters sprang out of the bushes and blocked their path.
