Douluo Continent: I am a biologist, and I have awakened a weapon spirit?

Author: Running Dog

Summary:

Chen Feng, a biologist in his previous life, transmigrated to the Douluo Continent. Originally hoping to awaken a biological martial soul for his research, he instead awakened a weapon martial soul, the Tai Chi Bagua Sword. The Yang sword represents life, and the Yin sword represents death. However, his martial soul was damaged, with only three of the eight trigrams remaining. In order to freely study soul masters and soul beasts, Chen Feng embarked on a journey to repair his martial soul and become stronger.

Chapter 1: I'm a biologist, and you're giving me a weapon spirit?

"Oh dear, what a misfortune! How did I awaken such a terrible martial soul?"

In Old Jack's house in Holy Soul Village, a beautifully sculpted boy was sighing like a little adult.

The boy's name is Chen Feng. In his previous life, he was a biologist who accidentally fell off a cliff while excavating fossils. When he woke up, he found himself in the Douluo Continent.

At first, Chen Feng was very excited because, for a biologist like him, Douluo Continent could be described as a treasure trove.

There are no fancy battle qi or magic here, only a myriad of martial spirits and soul beasts.

Such a wonderful place, isn't it just right for biologist Chen Feng?

Chen Feng immediately became excited, and with a roll over... he fell off the crib.

He was only a few months old at that time.

Realizing that he was still too young and couldn't do anything, Chen Feng didn't lose heart. He began to actively formulate plans and lay the foundation for future research.

When Chen Feng turned six, the Spirit Hall sent someone to awaken his spirit, which is today. Chen Feng went to the Spirit Hall in the village with great interest and asked his old acquaintance Su Yuntao to awaken his spirit.

At that time, he was full of hope and felt that the world was beautiful and full of light.

Chen Feng especially hoped that he could awaken his Beast Martial Soul, and it would be best if it could leave his body, as this would make it easier for him to conduct research.

Plant-based martial souls are also acceptable, since plants are also living organisms and fall within Chen Feng's research scope.

In fact, Chen Feng has always felt that it is unreasonable for people in Douluo Continent to divide martial souls into weapon martial souls and beast martial souls. He thinks they should be divided into biological martial souls and weapon martial souls.

However, due to the lack of research conditions, he did not have enough evidence to support his theory.

Chen Feng dreams of awakening a biological martial soul, preferably with a higher innate soul power, which would make it easier for him to travel around after becoming stronger.

To achieve his dream, he even prayed to the ancestors of the Chen family for blessings when his martial spirit awakened.

Then, he truly received the blessings of his ancestors.

Chen Feng awakened a sword as his martial soul. Most importantly, this sword was almost identical to the one he found behind the ancestral tablets when he was a child in his previous life, while playing in the ancestral hall.

Apart from the slight reduction in size and some damage to the Bagua diagram on the hand guard, there is no difference.

Yes, the sword spirit that Chen Feng awakened was actually damaged, which was the most frustrating thing for Chen Feng.

To be honest, he even suspected that it might be because when he climbed the table to get the sword, he accidentally pushed the ancestral tablet to the ground, and the ancestors made the sword break as punishment for him.

This sword is called the Tai Chi Bagua Sword, which sounds very powerful, and it is indeed very powerful.

If it is complete.

Perhaps due to time travel or some other reason, the original complete Tai Chi Bagua diagram on the sword's hilt has been reduced to only the Qian, Kan, and Gen trigrams.

The other five trigrams are all blurry and unclear.

The sword's unique feature is that each hexagram can be fitted with a soul ring. In other words, if the sword is not repaired, Chen Feng can only have a maximum of three soul rings.

"Oh no, I've become a master!" Chen Feng felt a chill run down his spine after learning about his martial soul.

If he can only obtain three spirit rings, then he can only level up to level 40 at most. This situation is slightly better than that of a master, but not by much.

He's at most a master plus.

But at least that master had two beautiful women admiring him, while Chen Feng had nothing. Thinking about it that way, he seemed even more pathetic.

The only thing that might offer him some comfort was his innate full soul power.

In addition, this sword has two special forms: the Yin sword form and the Yang sword form.

However, Chen Feng cannot use these two forms at the moment, and he is not clear about their specific effects. He can only roughly understand the very vague information that "the Yang sword governs life and the Yin sword governs death".

However, the ability to switch between different forms gives the Tai Chi Bagua Sword more possibilities.

If Chen Feng can successfully repair the Tai Chi Bagua Sword, he will surely become a powerful swordsman with unlimited potential.

So how should this broken sword be repaired? This is why Chen Feng is sighing and complaining now.

To repair this sword, it is necessary to use the blood of a Soul Master of sufficient quality, possessing the corresponding Gua position attribute Martial Soul.

Take Tang San as an example. His Blue Silver Grass martial soul has a tenacious vitality, and after being tested by Chen Feng, it was found to belong to the Xun position.

The Xun trigram belongs to the wood element and symbolizes wind, wood, clouds, and rain, representing the flow of life force and the spirit of continuous life.

However, although Tang San's Blue Silver Grass martial soul corresponds to the Xun trigram, its quality is insufficient.

If it were him at this stage, it would probably require the blood of tens of thousands of Tang Sans, and even then, it might not be possible.

Only someone at the Blue Silver Emperor stage could possibly help Chen Feng repair his martial soul.

In short, to break the seal on the Tai Chi Bagua Sword, Chen Feng needs to collect enough Soul Master blood that meets the requirements.

Either the quality is sufficient, or the quantity is sufficient.

In Chen Feng's opinion, the conditions for unlocking the Tai Chi Bagua Sword were naturally quite ridiculous.

Each seal requires corresponding blood, and it must be of high quality or in high quantity.

If the goal is to increase sales volume, it means that Chen Feng will have to wield his sword and wreak havoc on the Douluo Continent.

They killed any Soul Masters who met the criteria, slaughtering their way from the Heaven Dou Empire to the Star Luo Empire, and wiping out the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Lower Four Clans.

Then he stormed into the Spirit Hall, killed all the eligible Spirit Masters in the Pope's Hall and the Hall of Worship, and finally found Qian Daoliu and killed him too.

I'm going to fucking kill, kill, kill, kill, kill!

Could Chen Feng do that? Of course not.

Putting aside whether he can actually do it and whether he doesn't really want to do it, from a purely practical standpoint, this approach is incredibly short-sighted.

Once you embark on this path, it means that Chen Feng has fallen into the path of an evil soul master. It is not a dream for him to be an enemy of the world, and he will be punished sooner or later.

If focusing on quantity doesn't work, then is focusing on quality feasible?

After sighing and lamenting for a while, Chen Feng did have some thoughts on this matter.

In his view, as a biologist, now that he has come to this interesting world, he must thoroughly study all the strange and wonderful martial spirits and spirit beasts.

Otherwise, wouldn't his trip have been in vain?

Chen Feng was originally good at studying biological evolution, so why not continue his original job and promote the development of martial spirit research theory in this world?

As more people evolve their martial souls, high-quality blood will naturally become easier to find, and he will gain great fame in the process.

When that time comes, if Chen Feng, who has a high reputation, goes to ask others for blood, wouldn't they have to give him face?

Wouldn't that solve the problem of this broken martial spirit?

Chapter 2: Psychological Analysis of Tang San

Chen Feng felt that his idea was feasible to some extent.

Compared to that path of killing, this research path is not only more in line with his true feelings and interests, but also has strong sustainability.

Although the soul beasts and biological martial souls in this world are not the same as the species that Chen Feng studied in his previous life.

But he felt the principles should be the same.

In order to learn more about the soul beasts and martial souls of this world, Chen Feng met Su Yuntao. At first, Su Yuntao didn't take him seriously and treated him as just an ordinary child.

However, after Chen Feng suggested that he win over Si Si, Su Yuntao's attitude changed. He discovered that this child possessed wisdom beyond his years.

Chen Feng used the tropes he had learned from various romance novels in his previous life, and they worked very well.

Su Yuntao initially approached it with a try-it-out attitude, but unexpectedly it actually worked.

After getting to know Su Yuntao and demonstrating a certain level of wisdom, Chen Feng, with Su's help, was able to borrow books from the Spirit Hall's collection.

He spent two years reading all the books there. After all, it was just a small city, and one couldn't expect it to have a vast collection of books.

This is what Chen Feng prepared during the six years after his transmigration.

What he felt most fortunate about at this moment was that he had used psychological methods to change Tang San to some extent, which made his relationship with Tang San very good.

This means that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the bloodline of the future Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul owner is already in Chen Feng's hands.

At first, Chen Feng didn't want to get close to Tang San.

Because when he watched "Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect" in his previous life, he felt extremely disgusted with this character.

If Tang San in the first Douluo Continent novel was just a normal protagonist in the general sense, at most a bit eccentric and hypocritical...

Therefore, Tang San during the "Peerless Tang Sect" era was completely an abstract and precious figure.

I won't go into the specifics of those extraordinary feats; those who know, know.

That's why Chen Feng originally didn't want to pay any attention to Tang San.

But he soon realized that he couldn't avoid dealing with Tang San.

Because in the era of Douluo Continent I, the Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul was the most outstanding plant-based Martial Soul.

Tang San, whose martial soul will inevitably evolve into the Blue Silver Emperor, is an extremely rare research subject.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; we must seize it firmly.

After making up his mind, Chen Feng began to think about how to seize this opportunity.

Violent imprisonment is definitely not an option; Chen Feng doesn't want Tang Hao to smash a hammer over his head.

Then we'll just have to pay up.

But there are two kinds of friendships: one is superficial friendship, and the other is genuine friendship.

If it were another protagonist in a novel who is loyal and righteous, like Xiao Yan, then genuine friendship would naturally be more appropriate.

However, Tang Shenwang was too abstract, which made Chen Feng feel uneasy. He was afraid that one day he would be told, "You have already found a way to die."

This is a matter of life and death, and Chen Feng, who has already experienced a premature death, does not want to "die" again.

But the experimental materials were too precious, and he didn't want to give up.

Therefore, Chen Feng had no choice but to bite the bullet and contact Tang San to see the actual situation.

Practice makes perfect.

However, after Chen Feng actually met Tang San, he was surprised to find that the man seemed alright.

Although somewhat eccentric, it is not as abstract as Tang Shenwang.

But Chen Feng was still a little worried, so he tried to guide Tang San with his thoughts.

However, this guidance should not be too obvious, and it should not be done through preaching.

That sounds too much like a father figure and will be off-putting.

It might work for dealing with real children.

However, Tang San is a detective—no, an assassin—who looks like a child on the outside but has the soul of an adult. Therefore, he needs to be influenced by subtle and gradual methods.

Can an adult's personality be influenced and changed?

The psychology master Sigmund Freud believed that humans and animals are no different, and all behaviors are influenced by sexual impulses. Personality is shaped by childhood experiences and will not change in adulthood.

When an individual's sexual impulses are thwarted in childhood, they may fall into a state of mental disorder.

Jung, however, believed that humans possess noble qualities, and that hope and lofty ideals can continue to shape one's personality even in adulthood.

Jung believed that the causes of psychological problems should be sought in the present, not in the past.

Clearly, Jung's theory is more in line with reality.

Many real-world examples can prove his point.

For example, the events that occurred on Earth during World War II profoundly illustrate that an adult's character, thoughts, and beliefs can be influenced and changed.

Moreover, although Tang San's soul is that of an adult, his body is still that of a child and is affected by hormones.

Therefore, guiding Tang San during this period is still very feasible.
