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

“That’s right, so it’s only fire-resistant, not fire-resistant or fire-immune.” Chen Feng nodded and said, “The real significance of Xiao San’s third soul ring being water-attribute is to promote the further awakening of Blue Silver Grass’s life attribute, allowing Blue Silver Grass to absorb water-attribute energy to grow.”

"If we were to encounter that kind of powerful flame, let alone Blue Silver Grass, even a person would be burned to ashes. At that point, choosing any spirit ring would be useless; only a sufficiently strong life force would have a chance of survival."

“That’s true,” Xiao Wu said. “But you’ve planned out Xiao San’s third soul skill, what about mine? You can’t favor one over the other, Xiao Feng.”

"I've already decided on your third soul skill," Chen Feng said with a smile.

"Now, as a marksman, your damage output is basically acceptable, but your self-defense ability is still somewhat lacking. If an enemy gets close to you..."

"I'll give him a good beating with my Eight-Stage Throw," Xiao Wu interrupted.

Chen Feng:......

He sighed wearily, "Why do you always think about melee combat? As an archer, your first reaction in this situation should be to create distance from the enemy, not to rush in and fight them hand-to-hand."

Xiao Wu scratched her head and remained silent.

Tang San stepped in to smooth things over:

"If you want to enhance your self-defense capabilities, what type of third soul skill should Xiao Wu choose? A defensive one?"

Chen Feng shook his head and said:

"No, it's a movement-type skill. There's a soul beast called the Lightning Rabbit that has the ability to teleport. This kind of soul skill is very suitable for Xiao Wu."

In the original novel, Xiao Wu has several amazing skills, namely Flash, Void, and Invincible Golden Body.

However, in Chen Feng's opinion, Xiao Wu did not unleash the full power of these divine skills.

She's completely out of her mind to use a ranged attack skill in melee combat.

Which class is best suited for skills like Flash, Void, and Invincible Golden Body?

Without a doubt, it is a ranged class with extremely high output capabilities but poor self-defense capabilities.

In the context of Douluo Continent, he would be a Soul Master like Ma Hongjun.

Chen Feng gave these Soul Masters a new name: Archers.

Therefore, Xiao Wu's most suitable role should be archer, rather than the bizarre role in the original work that is neither a strong attacker nor an agile attacker.

It's because she went down the wrong path in the original work. She had powerful soul power control but chose to engage in melee combat. Not only did she engage in melee combat, but she also had to add humorous skills like waist bow and charm.

Putting everything else aside, do these two soul skills even work together?

If you want to play a seductive character, you should specialize in the path of mental power; if you want to play a melee character, you should enhance your melee abilities.

As a result, this rabbit spirit moved a little to the left and a little to the right. Are you trying to play the role of Lu Meng here?

Being able to do a little bit of everything makes life more colorful, right?

Because of her messy and nonsensical approach to soul skills, Xiao Wu in the original novel possessed three divine skills but had no outstanding performances. In the later stages, she was reduced to a human shield and became a foil for Tang Shenwang's boasting, and couldn't even obtain a complete divine position.

Therefore, Chen Feng had to correct this rabbit spirit and guide her onto the right path.

Tang San thought Chen Feng's suggestion was very good.

"If Xiao Wu's third soul skill can really grant her a flash, then her ability to protect herself will be greatly enhanced."

Chen Feng glanced at Xiao Wu and said:

"I'm afraid that after she gets Flash, she won't use it to protect herself, but instead will use it to self-destruct."

Just like Ah Shui, while other ADCs flash backward, he flashes forward.

It's not that this is bad, but the risk is too great, and you need to have reliable teammates.

But even if Xiao Wu really uses Flash to self-destruct, it won't matter. Chen Feng is experienced and knows how to deal with this situation.

At worst, he can just forge a trident himself.

As Chen Feng and his two companions chatted idly, night gradually fell.

After a good rest, Lao Meng was full of energy and couldn't wait to unleash his full power.

"Young Master Feng, shall we start with this stone pillar?" Old Meng asked.

"Okay, this one will do."

"Alright." Old Meng activated his martial spirit, spread his wings, and flew into the night sky.

A short while later, he flew back empty-handed.

“Young Master Feng, there are indeed Golden Blade Mantises up there, but they are not very old.”

Chen Feng nodded, not too surprised. "Then let's continue the search."

Without Old Meng, the Soul Emperor, leading the team, Chen Feng would never have dared to search for soul beasts at night.

Because walking at night requires lighting a torch, and this is extremely dangerous in areas where spirit beasts gather.

Chen Feng walked ahead, holding a torch. "Speaking of which, Lao Meng, do you know the reason for the formation of this peculiar landform in Sand Gold Valley? These growing stone pillars seem a bit intriguing, but I haven't been able to find any information about them."

“I’m not quite sure either, Young Master Feng,” Old Meng said while keeping an eye on the surroundings. “This place has existed for a long time. Over the years, many people and forces have explored this place, but they have not found anything. It may be the work of nature.”

"Oh." Chen Feng nodded and didn't say anything more.

After all, it's another world, so it's normal to have some strange and unusual things.

Even in Tang San's previous life's martial arts world, there were legends of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, as well as records of various immortal herbs. So it's understandable that the Douluo World has a place where minerals can grow.

The four of them carried torches and searched for the stone pillars. Every time they came across a stone pillar, Lao Meng would fly up to take a look.

After several attacks by spirit beasts and driving them away, Old Meng finally found a golden mantis that was about seven hundred years old on a stone pillar.

Old Meng flew down from the night sky, clutching the golden-bladed mantis. "Young Master Feng, we've found it."

"Thank you for your hard work, Lao Meng. Let me try to communicate with it first." Chen Feng's gaze fell on the struggling Golden Blade Mantis.

“Alright, Young Master Feng can try it without worry.” Old Meng had seen the experiments Chen Feng and the others had done before and understood what Chen Feng meant, so he didn’t hurt the mantis when he caught it.

Therefore, this golden-bladed mantis was still full of energy at this time.

Old Meng placed the golden-bladed mantis on the ground and held it down, making sure it couldn't move. Chen Feng looked at its compound eyes and said:

"Can you understand what I'm saying? I want you to do something for me, and if you succeed, I'll let you go."

As he spoke, he borrowed some metal ore from Tang San and placed it in front of the Golden Blade Mantis.

For creatures with low intelligence, luring them with food is a good method.

However, the Golden Blade Mantis seemed unable to understand Chen Feng's words. It struggled incessantly, emitting a piercing buzzing sound.

Chen Feng tried to communicate with it repeatedly, even using body language, but to no avail.

Xiao Wu took two steps forward, stood in front of the Golden Blade Mantis, and lowered her head slightly so that no one else could see her face.

"Little mantis, can you help us?" Xiao Wu said, while a red light flashed in her eyes.

The golden-bladed mantis seemed to sense something, and its struggling movements stopped.

But just when everyone thought it was cooperating, the Golden Blade Mantis started struggling again, and the piercing buzzing sound rang out once more.

Xiao Wu sighed inwardly, retreated, and said nothing more.

Her allure is an innate ability, which, like her waist bow, she will gradually acquire as she grows.

Although the charm effect was weakened because it did not condense into a soul ring, it was still enough to "convince" a small insect that was over seven hundred years old.

The current situation arises because insects are inherently less intelligent and, coupled with their relatively short lifespan, are simply unable to communicate.

After Xiao Wu left, Chen Feng knew in his heart that this experiment probably couldn't be carried out.

Even the intervention of a 100,000-year-old soul beast was ineffective; no matter how hard he tries, it will likely be the same.

With no other option, Chen Feng had to abandon the experiment and resort to traditional methods to obtain the soul ring.

After killing the Golden Blade Mantis with the Tai Chi Bagua Sword, a shimmering yellow spirit ring floated up.

Chen Feng sat down cross-legged and drew the soul ring over.

The shimmering yellow soul ring drifted toward Chen Feng, gradually shrinking before transforming into a beam of light that flowed into the Qian trigram of the Tai Chi Bagua Sword.

Instantly, the Qian position of the Tai Chi Bagua Sword lit up with golden light, and the entire sword looked much sharper.

The fusion of soul rings over seven hundred years old was not difficult for Chen Feng; the real key was whether he could obtain the Foundation Establishment Ring.

Therefore, when Chen Feng was fusing soul rings, he kept reinforcing this idea.

After a while, he opened his eyes and stood up. Two yellow spirit rings rose from the soles of his feet and pulsated around him.

At this moment, Chen Feng was promoted to a Great Soul Master.

Chapter 89 Double-Slit Interference Experiment and Version Benefits

"Xiao Feng, what kind of soul skill did you obtain? Is it the Foundation Establishment Ring you wanted?" Tang San asked curiously.

Chen Feng shook his head and sighed, "I failed. Artifact martial souls cannot obtain the Foundation Establishment Ring. It seems I am no exception."

"Young Master Feng, what soul skill did you acquire?" Old Meng asked.

This young master Feng is a treasure of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and he is very kind. This is the first time that Old Meng has protected him on a soul hunt, so he can't afford any accidents.

Chen Feng sensed Lao Meng's nervousness and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, although the second soul ring I obtained is not the Foundation Establishment Ring, the soul skill is exactly what I wanted, so our soul hunt was a great success."

"My second soul skill can enhance the attack power of my martial soul and make my Tai Chi Bagua sword even sharper. It is a very good soul skill."

If his first soul skill is used to fight against people, then his second soul skill is used to open cans.

It's specifically designed to counter those iron turtles.

With his second soul skill, Chen Feng can finally be considered a qualified sharp blade.

"Let's test its power, Xiao Feng," Tang San said, summoning a Blue Silver Grass.

“Okay.” Chen Feng had the same idea.

His second spirit ring lit up, and a thin layer of golden light immediately covered the Tai Chi Bagua Sword.

Chen Feng raised his sword and slashed at the blue silver grass, cutting it in two without feeling any resistance.

Tang San retrieved the Blue Silver Grass and examined the broken surface. "The cut surface is very smooth. It seems you didn't encounter any resistance. Now try the metal ore."

He took out a piece of iron ore and placed it on the ground. Chen Feng slashed at it with his sword again, and the iron ore split in two.

Tang San picked up the iron ore, examined it, and sighed:

"Smooth as a mirror, your second soul skill is really impressive."

"After all, this is just ordinary iron ore. If it were some special material, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to split it so smoothly with my second soul skill," Chen Feng said with a smile.

"Speaking of special materials..." Old Meng seemed to remember something at this moment, "The sect leader sent over a piece of ore a few days ago, saying that it was something that Young Master Feng needed."

"Oh? Is it a mineral that is sensitive to soul power and changes color?" Chen Feng's eyes lit up.

He had finalized the double-slit interference experiment last year, but had yet to find suitable materials. (See Chapter 76)

After all, soul power isn't light; you can't just experiment on it in a dark room.

To conduct a double-slit interference experiment with soul power, it is necessary to find a material that is sensitive to soul power and that only the area in contact with soul power will show obvious phenomena.

This material is extremely rare. Even with the resources and connections of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, it took them almost a year to find it.

Chen Feng took a fist-sized piece of silver ore from Lao Meng and said to Xiao Wu:

"Xiao Wu, why don't you try releasing your soul power onto it?"

"Okay." Xiao Wu stretched out a finger, and a beam of moonlight shot out, striking the ore.

*Snap!* The ore remained unharmed, except for the spot struck by the moonlight rays, which glowed white.

The light lasted for about four or five seconds before gradually dimming, and the ore returned to its original state.

Chen Feng's lips curled up slightly. The properties of this ore perfectly suited his requirements. "Old Meng, what's this ore called?"

"The sect leader said it's called Star Soul Mithril."

"Mithril... So it's a metal ore that has ductility?" Chen Feng asked.

"Extensibility?" Old Meng was puzzled.

"So, can it be forged into other shapes?"

“Oh, that’s fine. The sect leader said this kind of ore isn’t difficult to forge,” Old Meng said.
