Chapter 493: Witnessing History
By the way, Bibi Dong also called the current person in charge of the Wuhun Newspaper.
He was ordered to immediately compile the important research results of the artificial soul ring into news, and three days later, an urgent issue of the newspaper would be published to advertise the entire territory of the Martial Spirit Palace.
......
The matter of the artificial soul ring is over, but the summer spirit does not get a chance to rest because of this.
There is more to him than this, there is more research to be done for him.
For example, the most important ...... at the moment
Soul!
It is not the artificial soul in the Spirit Transmission Tower 20,000 years later, but the natural soul created by Huo Yuhao.
The kind that requires a contract with a soul beast.
After returning home, Xia Ling carefully studied the contents of the two books of the peerless Tang Gate and the Legend of the Dragon King with the system, and summarized the specific composition of the soul from the description of the original book.
In the final analysis, the essence of natural souls is to sign an equal contract with the souls of soul beasts.
After its death, it carries its own natal soul power in the form of a soul and combines it with the soul master to achieve a symbiotic form.
Soul rings and soul skills or something, the soul master can discuss with the soul beast, and it also saves the process of learning and condensing by himself.
In a sense, it's similar to venom.
It's just that the soul doesn't have that much autonomy.
Compared to artificial soul rings, a high-quality natural soul can provide more cultivation and combat experience, a mature set of skills, and can also increase some combat power during battle.
Except for the need to have a good relationship with soul beasts and the inability to DIY skill mods, everything else is actually quite good.
For example, a soul that is more than 10,000 years old can allow the soul master to have an additional skill in addition to the fixed martial soul true body, which is really an extra score.
If you have a little bit of luck and can contract a fierce beast-level orange soul, then you have already laid the foundation for becoming a god.
Of course, the premise is that Douluo Star can unlock the upper limit of level 100.
Artificial souls are different.
That thing is something similar to artificial intelligence that extracts genes from the body of a soul beast and catalyzes it through the qi of the fairy, which is far from comparable to the natural soul.
Artificial souls that do not need to sign a contract are completely under the control of the soul master.
Although he is like an arm, his subjective initiative is poor, and he does not have many years of experience in cultivation.
In terms of the upper limit, the upper limit of the artificial soul is not only 100,000 years, but the requirements for spiritual power to fuse the 100,000-year soul are also extremely harsh.
For the Douluo Continent and the Martial Spirit Research Institute at this time......
Although the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect has mastered some black technology about biology, it is still a little too difficult to extract genes.
Therefore, Xia Ling's next research focus is on natural spirits.
Through the experience of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm and the Ice Emperor in the peerless Tang Sect, it can already be known that the birth of the soul needs to go through two processes.
Sign a contract to merge with the host.
Fusion is very easy to do, and it can be done easily by borrowing the experience of sacrifice.
For example, the three dragon kings and the Thundering Hellvine in Xia Ling's mind right now have already completed the process of merging with him.
As long as he signs a contract, he can turn into a true soul, able to break free from the shackles of his sea of knowledge, and move freely in the main material plane.
But......
When it comes to signing contracts, things can be a bit more difficult.
The original book only mentions signing an equal contract, but it doesn't say what it is.
There are nearly a hundred kinds of equal contracts in the immortal dao system that Xia Ling now masters.
Bloodline, Body, Cultivation, Brotherhood, Marriage, Family, Temporary Team, Bound Life, High Integration, Low Integration, Life and Death......
As for which one is suitable......
It's a brain-scratching experience.
In desperation, Summer Spirit had to spend a lot of money to exchange all the undead magic mastered by Electrolux to the system again.
The bell must be tied to the bell, let's just get to the bottom of it.
After a few more days of baldness, Summer Spirit finally picked out thirteen spells that looked more like they could be used for souls from the many necromancy spells that Electrolux had mastered.
These are the kind of contracts that are made with living beings, and act directly on the soul.
Excluding the servile and unequal nature, there are only three left.
Looking at the only three remaining equal contract spells, Xia Ling didn't have a headache.
This thing......
You can't just go through the experiments one by one, right?
If it doesn't work out, it's okay if it fails, but the devil knows what will happen if the contract is successful.
Wouldn't it be a calf if it didn't bring about the expected soul?
If you don't make a decision, ask the system.
"System, please ask, which of these three spells is used to sign a soul contract?"
"Ding, after the last improvement, the language and logic ability of this system has made great progress, the host should not play word games to exploit the loophole of the power of fate."
"Oh, don't be so outside, everyone is a good brother, isn't it?"
"Ding, there is no gender distinction in this system, so it is not."
"Hey, don't mind! You said that our brothers and I have been together for more than 20 years, and my wife and I have not lived together for so long......"
It's no wonder that Xia Ling pulled down his face to be close to the system, the main reason is that this soul manufacturing method is really too expensive.
The price of the Natural Soul Contract Ritual and the Artificial Soul Manufacturing Method plus one piece is about a hundred times more than the previous Heavenly Forging reward.
And not only selling, but also packing.
It's really unaffordable!
In desperation, he could only make this decision.
It's close to the system, and it's a lot of money.
Just when he had already said that the sea of consciousness was exhausted and his spirit was numb, the system seemed to be unable to stand his nagging, and quickly moved one of the spells to the position of the first line, and deducted a large amount of the power of fate.
"Uh-huh? What do you mean by this? ”
"Ding, this system doesn't mean anything, and this system doesn't do anything."
Outside, Xia Ling raised his eyebrows.
Okay, okay, the system has learned badly.
This logical ability to improve the line, there is a level.
"I understand, I understand, this bit of fate is a red envelope I gave you for years of hard work."
With a weird smile on his face, Xia Ling exited the system interface and entered the sea of knowledge instead.
This fusion of souls is such a beautiful thing!
Let's start with Ahsan, the thickest skin!
In the middle of knowing the sea, Ah Shan, who was sleeping, suddenly shivered, and raised his head sleepily.
Above his head, the thundering Yan Prison vine fell with a grunt.
"Huh? Is it the boss? Do you have something to look for me? ”
"Yes, something, a good thing. Cooperate with me to do an experiment, and if it succeeds, it will be of great benefit to all of you. If it succeeds, you don't have to stay in my spiritual sea all the time in the future, you can come out and let off steam. ”
As soon as he heard this, the Mountain Dragon King suddenly came to his senses.
"Oh, that's fine, let's get started now!"
Gufu
......
When Zhu Zhuqing returned home from his daily practice, he saw three handsome guys with different faces and shapes in the living room.
Oh, and there's a green-haired little Shota.
The three handsome guys are naturally Ah Shui, the water dragon king who looks like a gentle wife, Ah Huo, the fire dragon king of the iron-blooded tough guy type, and Ah Shan, the mountain dragon king with a simple face.
The green-haired little Zhengtai is the thundering Yan Prison vine Xiaolei.
Although Xia Ling made it very clear before that the meaning of this green hair in the human world was not very good, this kid still did it without hesitation.
When Zhu Zhuqing stepped into the house, the four of them put down the things they were fiddling with in their hands, and shouted in unison: "Good boss!" ”
Zhu Zhuqing: ???
She was stunned for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Are you those souls in the Heavenly Spirit Consciousness Sea?" How do you ......?"
"Ah, it's just us......"
"That's right, I'll explain it to you."
Ah Huo took the first step to stop Ah Shui, who wanted to speak, and opened his mouth to explain.
"The boss has researched something called the Soul Contract, and now we don't have to live in the boss's sea of consciousness all the time, and we can also come out and play when we have nothing to do on weekdays. In battle, we can also mobilize the soul power in the boss's body and release skills that are not engraved in the soul ring. ”
Ah Shan added from the side: "That's it, we can also independently assist the boss in fighting outside of his body, and now we not only use the spiritual power of the Divine Yuan Realm, but also recover some of the cultivation before death." ”
Zhu Zhuqing nodded thoughtfully.
As one of the closest people to Xia Ling, she naturally knew these spirits.
It's just that they had appeared in their ontologies before, and this was the first time we'd seen them in human form.
"By the way, what about the Heavenly Spirit Others?"
"Oh, boss, he just said that he was going to the Pope's palace to report to his mother about the soul method, and he should be back soon."
Just when Zhu Zhuqing was chatting with the four great spirits, the summer spirits in the Pope's Palace also received a large amount of huge amount of fate power from the system.
To be exact, it should be two.
One comes from the condensation method of the artificial soul ring, and the other comes from the soul that has just succeeded.
Looking at the vast and vast power of fate in the system panel, Xia Ling's heart was full of a sense of security and satisfaction.
......
That night, the Martial Spirit Newspaper, which had already finished printing the newspaper and was waiting for the postmen to send it, came to a new task again.
There were two more pieces of news attached to the newspaper.
Introduce the spirit system and solicit volunteers from all over the continent.
Regardless of the level and martial soul, as long as it reaches the bottleneck, there is a lack of suitable soul rings.
A day later, this urgent newspaper with the latest research results of the Wuhun Hall had been delivered to all parts of the continent by the postmen of the Min family.
For a while, the words soul and artificial soul ring caused an uproar in the northern part of the Douluo Continent.
After many years, a new title has once again appeared in the soul master world.
For the artificial soul ring, the Wuhun Hall directly printed the soul ring condensation method in detail on the newspaper for everyone to practice for free.
After all, it's useless to have this thing alone, only with the soul power compression ball and the skill comparison table can you really condense the soul ring you need.
At the end of the article, there is a text written by Bibi Dong himself.
It probably means that it is hoped that after the Wuhun Hall has trained deacons at all levels, many soul masters can take the initiative to go to the Wuhun Hall in various places to cooperate with the compilation of the skill comparison table.
For soul masters who take the initiative to provide various soul skills, there will be corresponding compensation and incentives in the Wuhun Palace.
This includes, but is not limited to: Golden Soul Coins, certain high-priced services, exemptions from admission requirements for certain colleges, etc.
In terms of souls, Wuhun Hall did not directly announce the spell of soul fusion, but spent a lot of space in the newspaper to introduce the advantages and disadvantages of souls.
He also said that once the technology matures, soul transformation points will be set up in Wuhun City and Star Dou Great Forest to serve the majority of soul masters.
At the same time, volunteers from all over the continent who have reached the bottleneck of soul power are also recruited to participate in soul test fusion.
Wuhun Hall does not guarantee the effect, but promises that the chance of life-threatening is absolutely less than 0.1%.
The number of volunteers is limited to 100 people, and all fees are completely free.
The inductees will be subsidized twice as much as the travel fee, and the non-inductees will also be sent back by a spirit guide truck or train.
If you have difficulty in moving or are poor, you can also go to the local Wuhun Palace, and there will be a vehicle to bring the registrant to Wuhun City.
It's not that easy to become a volunteer.
The first thing is to test the spiritual power level according to the new spiritual power grading standard issued by the Wuhun Palace, and those who are too low will be eliminated.
After all, Xia Ling has the experience of the afterlife, so he doesn't have to experiment with the relationship between spiritual power and soul spirit little by little.
Even if there are many subsidies from the Martial Spirit Palace, there will always be many people who will not be able to scrape together the funds needed to obtain the soul ring for the time being.
As soon as the news was released, thousands of soul masters rushed to Wuhun City in various ways.
After going through layers of screening, the soul masters of all levels participating in this soul test ranged from the lowest-level soul warriors to quasi-Contra Douluo.
From the Lingyuan Realm with the lowest spiritual power to the Linghai Realm, there are also many people.
It is worth mentioning that the only two quasi-Contra Douluo are Xia Ling's old acquaintances, Flender and Zao Wou-Ki.
If it weren't for Liu Erlong who arrived at Contra Douluo first, she would have come.
In order to show its leading role, the Martial Soul Hall selected ten people from the deacons at all levels who came to study, and forty people from the Martial Soul Academy to join this test experiment.
With the addition of Tang San, who had already been decided, there are now a total of 151 volunteers participating in the experiment this time.
And that's not all.
Some of the close sects under the Martial Spirit Hall are also constantly coming.
At present, the one hundred and fifty-one people who have arrived, except for Tang San, are all staying in Wuhun City.
It was to learn all the knowledge about the soul in advance, and it was also waiting for the news of Xia Ling's party who went to the Star Dou Great Forest.
The Martial Soul Hall once again used the selfless mentality of the Grand Duke to face the entire Soul Master World.
Of course, this matter is good for promoting the protection of soul beasts and the entire soul master world.
Once these hundred or so people have successfully fused the soul, they will soon be able to publicize the existence of the soul, which is exactly the result that the Summer Spirit and the Martial Spirit Hall want.
Even if the Martial Spirit Hall is now in full swing, the words of one family alone are not convincing.
Only when everyone can see and get the real thing, and really get the benefits, can this really make a virtuous circle and promote the cause of soul beast protection.
Otherwise, judging from the general ideological consciousness of the soul masters now, they may not be interested in the work of protecting soul beasts.
Using the power of the soul as a temptation, this can be regarded as a curve to save the country.
In Xia Ling's vision, the soul system and the artificial soul ring are combined in pairs, which is the future development route of the soul master.
Using a man-made soul ring alone, it's too thin.
The means of warfare will remain as single as they are now.
The use of souls alone is too demanding for mental power.
It will lead to many soul masters with weak mental power who will find it difficult to break through to the high level at all.
Didn't you see that the Douluo Continent had reached the Ultimate Douluo Era, and the only way to cultivate spiritual power was the Purple Pole Demon Pupil?
Pointing to the Douluo people's own creation of a mature and feasible spiritual power cultivation method, I am afraid that the time was enough for Xia Ling to directly cultivate to the point of creating the universe casually.
So......
Only children make choices, adults choose them all!
In this way, the soul master can take care of both and learn from each other's strengths.
While promoting the progress of self-created soul skills, it can also accelerate the elimination of the hatred between soul beasts and soul masters to a certain extent.
While not making the soul beast lose its value, it also eliminates the possibility of the extinction of the soul beast, which is a completely win-win situation.
