Douluo: Spirit Research Diary

Chapter 429 Failure \u0026 Success?

The border of the empire, Notting City.

After wandering around for a long time, he finally returned to his hometown, where the academy that helped him break through to the soul master was located.

"Notting City Junior Soul Master Academy", looking at the vigorous and powerful words framed above, Han Tao smiled softly and walked in amid the congratulations of the guard.

"Dean Su!"

He bowed and said hello.

Principal Su is holding a book, and through the cracks in the pages, you can see that it is "Unofficial History of the People's Republic of China". It seems that he has always been particularly interested in certain aspects.

"Han Tao?"

Seeing Han Tao, Principal Su couldn't help but close the book and hide it in the corner of the desk.

He stepped forward and asked Han Tao to sit down in the principal's room, then picked up a cup of tea and gently placed it on Han Tao's desk.

Question: "Han Tao, what's the purpose of your visit to your alma mater this time?"

Han Tao didn't drink tea.

Although I respected my former principal, after all, there were two great enemies, Wuhun Palace and Haotian Sect. So, if possible, avoid such devious tactics as poisoning someone close to you.

Illusion was able to figure out Principal Su's thoughts, but when it came to his former benefactor, he lost some etiquette.

"Um"

After thinking about it for a moment, I no longer wanted to hide it.

"I've been researching a special soul skill recently, and I need the help of the soul masters from Blue Silver Grass."

"But please don't worry, I will help them hunt for soul rings, and even help them break through the 19th and 29th level barriers."

"Yeah?"

There was obvious surprise in the principal's eyes.

After all, it is very dangerous to go to the Soul Hunting Forest to help students hunt for soul rings. It would be great if Han Tao can help.

As for the follow-up, breaking through the 19th and 29th levels, I am not too concerned about it.

Because you can't find him at all in the Notting City Junior Soul Master Academy. A 19th-level student of the Blue Silver Grass martial spirit.

"Lin San, Lin Si, and Lin Wu are all the soul masters of Lan Yincao!"

Following Principal Su's dispatch, the three little carrot heads quickly came to Han Tao's side.

"Lord Soul Master!"

Lin Si's tone was childish.

His attitude was respectful, and his body even trembled slightly with fear.

"Don't be so nervous!"

She patted his shoulder lightly, and inadvertently flicked the black caterpillars off Lin Si's clothes with her fingers.

Principal Su looked embarrassed: "This is..."

"Prank between students."

"Um!"

Although Notting City is a small place, there are still classes of nobles and civilians in the small city. The school is divided into small groups based on nobles and dormitories, and it is not uncommon for nobles to bully civilians.

Han Tao was also the target of bullying in the past. If he hadn't found Xiao Chenyu as his boss, his student days would not have been so easy.

"Let's go!"

After saying this, Han Tao led Lin San, Lin Si, and Lin Wu away.

"Lord Soul Master?"

"Um?"

"Are you also a Blue Silver Grass soul master?"

Lin San was the oldest brother among the three, so he mustered up the courage to ask.

Han Tao paused for a moment: "Yes!"

"I heard from Principal Su that you are now a Soul Saint. Can our Blue Silver Grass soul masters really break through to the Soul Saint level?"

Following Lin San's question, the other two little carrot heads also looked expectant.

Squatting down for a moment and wiping off the dew from the bluesilver grass on the roadside, Han Tao spoke softly.

"I don't want to talk too much to you and talk nonsense like 'there are no useless martial arts spirits, only useless soul masters'."

"In fact, Blue Silver Grass is a useless martial spirit!"

Destroying the martial spirit means that you can't do anything.

Going the therapy route?

Even if all 9 soul rings are selected for treatment, or even if all 100,000-year-old soul rings are given, the final healing effect will only be at the level of Jiangzhu, and cannot be comparable to Jiuxin Haitang.

"The growth is not as good as Lone Bamboo, the healing is not as good as Begonia Flower, and the offense and defense are even worse."

"But there is always hope. You need to perceive the world and existence in your own way, understand the essence and charm of Bluesilver Grass, summarize, record, and find the fireflies under the boundless darkness."

Han Tao paused.

I didn't tell them what the essence of Wuhun is: "adaptation".

They were not told what "spiritual connection" was, the theory of "martial soul foundation", or the profound core evolutionary routes of emperors and masters.

Rather, it teaches people how to fish, teaches them the methods of research, and uses the spirituality of youth to find the future path of Bluesilver Grass.

"Um!"

Lin Wu was always taciturn, hiding emotions in his heart and thinking without words.

"Did you see that soul beast?"

Han Tao pointed not far away, and the frost swept over Lin San, making him tremble with coldness.

"Frost Grass, a century-old soul beast!"

Frost lingers around the blades of grass in the form of a protective barrier.

And this is the first possible plan chosen by Han Tao. Even if it fails, the loss will not be too much.

"Soul power, destroyed!"

Pull out the Blue Silver Bamboo and beat the Frost Grass to the brink of death with just a few casual touches.

"Which of you is going to kill it and absorb its soul ring?"

Lin Wu hesitated.

He seemed to want to say something, but was too timid to speak.

Lin San asked: "Master Soul Master, is it only a hundred years old?"

"According to Yu Xiaogang's extreme soul ring theory, isn't our first soul ring capable of absorbing 423-year-old soul beasts?"

Han Tao shook his head: "Actually, no!"

"Absorbing a 423-year-old soul beast is the physical limit of a top-level martial soul, not the limit of blue silver grass."

"Blue silver grass, why is it called a useless martial soul? Even if you want to absorb a hundred-year-old animal soul beast, it may cause the body to explode and die, and even this condensed frost grass, you will need to take great risks to absorb it."

The words were sharp, and the cold and pale reality was the despair for the future in their eyes.

"Let me do it!"

Lin Si stepped forward.

Among the three people, he was the most cowardly one. He was often bullied by others in the Notting City Junior Soul Master Academy. No one was more eager for power than him.

Took the knife in Han Tao's hand, faced the biting frost fog, and cut off its soul ring.

Sitting cross-legged, began to pull the soul ring and absorb it.

"Recite in my heart, I need a soul skill to protect my body!"

"Recite in my heart, I need a soul skill to protect my body, and then repeat it continuously."

Han Tao whispered in his ear.

After a long time, Lin Si endured the severe pain in his body and finally drew a yellow soul ring on the blue silver grass.

Lin Si raised his head with joy: "Success?"

Then, he stretched his arms, and the soul ring on the blue silver grass flickered.

"First soul skill, frost body barrier!"

With the breath of frost, he condensed around his body to form a clever body barrier.

"Good, not bad!"

Han Tao praised gently.

Then, he suddenly raised his hand.

The blue silver master suddenly appeared in everyone's eyes, and the seven soul rings of yellow, white, red, black, black, black, black suddenly flickered.

And with the traction of the spiritual contract, Han Tao's thoughts were projected into Lin Si's first soul ring, sensing the soul skill record information inside.

"Success? Or it can be said to be a failure!"

The frost body barrier, which solidified the ice element around the body, did increase the strength of the soul master by 50%.

But the problem is that once it is separated from the frost element, this body barrier cannot be formed.

The same principle as the whale glue in the past, the structure of the barrier can only be stable in the form of ice, space and spirit.
