Chapter 112 Returning to Wuhun City feels like going home
To say that the biggest surprise in the process of hunting soul beasts, there can only be one - soul bones.
The output of soul bones below ten thousand years is very rare. The output rate of soul bones of ten thousand year soul beasts is much higher than that of low-level soul beasts. However, as long as it is less than one hundred thousand years old, the actual output The rate is still very low, but it has become higher for relatively low-level soul beasts.
And this time when hunting Archaeopteryx, a soul bone was revealed! 70,000-year-old Archaeopteryx right arm bone!
You Chen does not pursue absolute perfection when it comes to soul bones. He will not pursue a hundred-thousand-year-old soul bone or even a vicious beast's soul bone like those fan fiction protagonists.
The reason why You Chen has not absorbed soul bones all this time is not because he dislikes soul bones that are not at the hundred thousand year level, but just... soul bones are too rare and rare.
Soul bones can be passed down, that is, as time goes by, there will be more and more in the world.
In this era, many titled Douluo only have one or two soul bones, let alone You Chen.
He only has one piece of head soul bone on hand, and needless to say the compatibility, even if he absorbs it, it will not be able to improve the origin of the martial soul even a little bit. For You Chen, who only focused on the evolution of his martial soul at that time, it was a bit like a tasteless thing that was a pity to throw away.
You Chen is very satisfied with this 70,000-year-old Archaeopteryx right arm bone, especially since it comes from the same source as his sixth soul ring, so the compatibility is naturally higher than other soul bones. A big chunk!
However, You Chen doesn't plan to absorb it now.
Unlike in the past, the reason now is also very simple.
Absorbing soul bones is the same as absorbing soul rings, which will enhance the stability of the martial soul.
So until Yuxing Trumpet has absorbed the first three soul rings, he will not use a single soul bone.
After storing the Archaeopteryx right arm bone into the storage space, You Chen chose to return.
Then, about a month passed.
A major earthquake occurred among the upper classes of Douluo Continent.
Almost all the nobles know one thing, and that is the assassination of the son of Marquis Shanya and Prince Antonio of the Star Luo Empire!
The one who struck was none other than the killer organization "Skynet" that has gradually become famous in recent years!
Compared to before, it can be said that the "Skynet" organization has really become famous this time.
Even in remote areas of the Douluo Continent such as Notting City, there are rumors of Skynet. Some parents even use Skynet to scare their children, saying, "If they don't obey, Skynet's killers will suddenly appear." Come out and capture you" and the like.
Emperor Xingluo began to call on the whole country to arrest and attack the Skynet organization.
Although Wuhun Palace has a transcendent status, for ordinary people on the current Douluo Continent, the two empires are more noble existences.
This has nothing to do with strength, because ordinary civilians and low-level soul masters only know that Titled Douluo are very powerful, but they have no specific concept, and they do not know that Wuhun Palace has the most Titled Douluo at present. power.
The empire’s strong appeal lies more in the fact that humans respect the concept of “country” more.
In other words, the civilization of Douluo Continent has not transitioned to a stage where immortal cultivators are supreme and ordinary emperors only serve them because of the emergence of extraordinary power.
Under such appeal, many civilians were mobilized. Even if the soul fighting beasts began to practice the Breath Condensation Technique, it was difficult to hide it from everyone's sight.
It is only a matter of time before it is discovered.
However, unlike what many people expected, the exposure of the whereabouts this time was actually done deliberately by the Soul Fighting Beast organization.
The Star Luo Empire dispatched an army of thousands of soul masters to encircle and suppress the soul fighting beasts.
Among this army of thousands of people, there is one Soul Douluo and ten Soul Saints.
Everyone feels that the so-called Skynet, after all, is "the Skynet is vast and sparse but not leaking out", and it will come to an end during this encirclement and suppression.
However, the result surprised everyone, shocked and horrified them.
An army of one thousand people surrounded and suppressed one hundred Skynet killers. However, due to the strange weapons in the hands of the Skynet killers, they suffered heavy losses on the first encounter.
That one Soul Douluo and the ten Soul Saints also failed to get any benefits.
Because Skynet also has a "Contra"!
And it is the kind of Contra that is extremely powerful among Contras!
Afterwards, some of the survivors in the army revealed that the Contra general who led them was instantly killed by Skynet's Contra killer just by meeting him!
It was also because the Contra killer's methods were too terrifying, coupled with the previous casualties, the morale of the army collapsed instantly, and everyone, including the ten Soul Saints, began to flee. !
Based on the sequence of bronze medal killers, silver medal killers, gold medal killers, and earth-level killers that were previously reported by Skynet, some good people called the killer in the Contra realm - the heaven-level killer!
Since this incident, the originally loud and vocal condemnation camp suddenly became silent.
Even the Star Luo Emperor who initially called for the annihilation of Skynet has stopped.
Without him, he is a heaven-level killer who can instantly kill Soul Douluo. Even if he is not a Titled Douluo, he already possesses the intimidating power of a Titled Douluo!
What's more... in fact, they can't confirm whether this person is a Contra or a Titled Douluo?
After all, this heaven-level killer didn’t even reveal his soul ring when he took action! The reason why I inferred that it was a Soul Douluo before was just because most soul masters didn't think about it at all in the direction of a titled Douluo!
In today's era, all titled Douluo are like the martial arts myths in martial arts novels. They are dragons that never see their end.
Not long after this incident, Emperor Xingluo issued a statement, claiming that the previous incident had been found to be a misunderstanding, and that the son of Marquis Shanya and Prince Antonio intended to snatch the soul beast prey of the heaven-level killer. , but was the result of a righteous liquidation by a heaven-level killer. Through the correspondence between the Marquis of Shanya and Prince Antonio in the palace of the Marquis of Shanya, it can be basically confirmed that the evidence is conclusive.
Antonio also completed the righteous separation with the prince after Emperor Xingluo issued a statement.
After severely condemning the actions of Marquis Shanya and Prince Antonio, the Star Luo Emperor declared that he would hand over all their properties to the heaven-level killers as compensation, and sincerely invited the heaven-level killers to join Star Luo The empire serves as its guest.
After the whole incident, it can be said that the Star Luo Empire has completely become a big joke. The official Tiandou Empire even used this to write a special book and ridicule the Star Luo Empire.
But he didn't laugh at the heaven-level killer.
After all... who can not be afraid of a killer who can instantly kill Contra in front of thousands of troops on a frontal battlefield?
Especially the emperor who has climbed to the highest peak of power, who is willing to break up with such a figure?
Skynet never responded to Emperor Xingluo’s gratitude, and the entire Skynet organization fell silent.
The storm seems to have subsided...
In the blink of an eye, another half year has passed.
“The speed of practicing the Divine Elephant’s Prison Suppressing Strength has slowed down significantly again.”
After his life level increased, You Chen felt the difficulty of practicing the Divine Elephant’s Prison Suppressing Strength. Reduced somewhat.
With the increased income from the Divine Elephant's Prison Suppressing Power, even if you put aside soul power cultivation for a while, it is not an exaggeration to make it a major.
For more than half a year, You Chen, even if he misses the daily soul training, must conduct a comprehensive training of the divine elephant's prison-suppressing power at least once.
But now, as the number of giant elephant particles exceeds 50%, You Chen feels that his practice efficiency has been greatly reduced.
The blessings of the three ten-thousand-year soul rings are not bad, and there is a seventy-thousand-year soul ring among them. In terms of the physical blessing of the soul rings alone, You Chen can compare with some soul rings of poor quality. He is a Contra, but his overall physical fitness has reached the Contra level despite not improving the Divine Elephant Prison Suppressing Power half a year ago.
Coupled with the few high-level BUFF pills that were currently in reserve, and the instantaneous unconsciousness effect of the Soul-Destroying Art, he had just achieved the achievement of instantly killing Soul Douluo half a year ago.
And now, the practice of Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength is halfway through, and his overall physical fitness is definitely one of the best in Contra. Going back to half a year ago, even if he doesn't use the high-level elixir, And I am fully confident that I can do the same thing.
In other words...
At first sight, some Contras with weak mental strength, not reaching the Spiritual Abyss Realm, and insufficient physical fitness might be instantly killed by him now.
As long as his mental power has not reached the Spiritual Abyss realm, whether it is Soul Douluo or Soul Saint, there is not much difference in the difficulty of his instant kill.
However, it is different when facing a strong man with spiritual power in the spiritual abyss realm. Even if his spiritual power is raised to another level, the Dacheng-level soul-destroying art alone may still be insufficient.
Because, against the Soul Douluo whose mental power obviously did not reach the spiritual abyss realm, You Chen could still feel extremely obvious resistance to the soul-destroying art he used after using super concentration.
If he were not fast enough, he would most likely be able to react before causing serious damage to the opponent.
Compared with the Linghai realm, the biggest difference between the Lingyuan realm and the Linghai realm is that the ability to perceive is external, and everyone can achieve abilities similar to mental detection.
Their perception of danger is far beyond what those below them can match.
It would be okay if You Chen only used the soul-destroying technique to scare him, but once he had murderous intentions, they would be awakened at an alarming speed. 'But this is enough. ’
Even a titled Douluo cannot leave behind the current You Chen.
Even if Super Douluo takes action, You Chen will expose the starlight incarnation's trump card at worst, and he can still get away after dealing with it for a period of time.
At this moment, it can truly be said that everything in the world can be achieved.
Many worries in the past can no longer be taken too seriously now.
It’s time to get back to your old business.
However, You Chen did not directly enter Wuhun City again.
Shortly after the first half month of his hunting activities...
As time passed, the news of his killing of researchers in Wuhun City finally spread, causing many fearful researchers to flee on their own initiative. Out of Wuhun City.
Completely ignoring the fact that even if someone is really targeting him, his survival probability is obviously higher under the protection of Wuhun City than if he runs away randomly.
Among the people who escaped, there were many mission targets for You Chen.
You Chen couldn't figure out whether the people from Wuhun Palace were secretly paying attention to these people. If he took action easily, he would probably be followed and his informants would be caught.
But after such a long time, Wuhun Palace's attention to this group of fleeing people will inevitably decrease.
And... they won't have this luxury any time soon.
You Chen spent two months to complete the harvesting of the mission targets among these escapees.
Then... a year later, serial murders occurred again in Wuhun City.
In the first month after the masked killer appeared again, more than ten people died.
And what's different from before is that many of these dead people were killed in extremely cruel ways.
This kind of move can be regarded as an insult to his character. It makes many people fearful and at the same time filled with righteous indignation.
For the murderer's rampant behavior, Wuhun Palace naturally regarded it as a provocation to Wuhun Palace, and was furious about it.
In fact...these changes are not that You Chen has any special hobbies, they are just changes in mission conditions that have changed his execution methods.
As for the completion conditions and types of tasks, so far, they can be roughly divided into "defeat" type, "humiliation" type, and "attitude change" type.
The additional conditions are generally "enlarging the impact (such as the number of onlookers required in Tang San's mission)", "increasing the degree (such as requiring a quick victory, or the degree of trauma to the opponent when defeating)", and "others related to the main mission Completely different additional mission conditions”.
In fact, there is no requirement that You Chen must kill the mission target.
But most tasks can actually be completed through simple and crude "killing".
It goes without saying that defeating is also defeating.
Humiliation, You Chen has already tried, using very bad means to physically humiliate, such as directly tearing off the other person's clothes in public, can also achieve humiliation.
If the target is killed by violent means, it can also be regarded as achieved.
Unless it is something like the Jade Xiaoan mission that requires some special mental humiliation, the mission can basically be easily completed using violent means.
In fact, in the process of physical humiliation, many mental humiliations can also be achieved at the same time.
Finally, there is a change in attitude. This is the most troublesome of the three conditions.
Because the target whose attitude changes is not the "Mask Killer", but the "Wandering Dust". So even if You Chen scares the shit out of the other party, if the other party doesn't know that the source of their fear is You Chen, the mission is not completed.
Therefore, for such a target, You Chen must first forcibly abduct the target, and only after confirming that no one else is present can he reveal his identity to complete the task. And killing is just a means of dealing with the aftermath.
Of course, some people estimate in You Chen's notebook records that there are several tasks. You Chen will not kill them all at once, but just like a cat playing with a mouse, he will just scare them in the beginning to complete the tasks. , and finally choose to kill.
And such a no-taboo behavior will naturally expose more flaws.
However, You Chen is no longer what he used to be.
Even if you just rely on your physical fitness, you can easily and quickly get rid of the Soul Saint.
What's more, with the improvement of his strength, You Chen is no longer hiding like he did in his first few actions a year ago. Once he is besieged by multiple soul saints, he will directly possess the martial soul and escape.
Why did you cover it up before, not even revealing the fluctuations in your soul power, but now you are not trying so hard to cover it up?
In fact, no matter how hard the people in Wuhun Palace could think of it, it would be almost impossible for them to think that the masked killer’s true identity was You Chen.
You Chen's unnecessary move is just out of caution.
What if Bibi Dong trusts his academic abilities too much, and really thinks that he can change his destiny to have Soul Saint-level strength, thereby confirming that the masked killer is You Chen, and directly lays a dragnet, he really There is nowhere to escape.
But now, he is not so worried about this happening.
Unless a strong man at the Extreme Douluo level takes action, You Chen is sure to escape at least once before the starlight incarnation ability is revealed.
If You Chen’s current combat power is at the Contra level, then his ability to escape and save his life is at the Super Douluo level!
In order to complete the divine test, Bibi Dong was forced to suppress her soul power until she was close to the finale of the original work, and could only exert her maximum combat power of level 98.
This means that You Chen is no longer so vain as Bibi Dong.
With such a small probability, there is still an insurance opportunity. If you don't develop it as much as possible, then there is no need to talk about ambition.
The days when You Chen felt like going home when he entered Wuhun City lasted until the second month, when You Chen was finally held back by multiple Contras.
In this situation, it is impossible for You Chen to hide completely.
Then, everyone in Wuhun City quickly realized that the previous evaluation of having a combat power of Soul Saint or above could be changed - this guy is definitely a strong man at least Contra level!
The strong wind was brutal, and You Chen successfully escaped before the titled Douluo from Wuhun City arrived.
Seeing You Chen's successful escape, the cardinals at the top of Wuhun Palace all had gloomy expressions on their faces.
Even if You Chen's strength is known, the current situation will not change much because of this information.
Because before that, just as You Chen thought, they had already deployed the highest level encirclement and suppression lineup that could be used under normal circumstances.
Including Ju Ghost Douluo and the other two, there are five titled Douluo elders on standby in Wuhun City at this moment, preparing to take down the Masked Killer with thunderous force.
However, the problem is... In their initial expectations, it was already a certainty that several cardinals would attack at the same time. Those law enforcement officers with the strength of the Soul Saint were only responsible for holding back the masked killer and waiting. They arrive.
But reality broke their expectations step by step.
It’s just that the Soul Saint can’t stop the Masked Killer, they Contras can’t delay it for long at all!
This means that they can only hope for the last solution - wait until the Masked Killer happens to be near the Titled Douluo and is discovered!
Because perhaps only a Titled Douluo-level expert can truly delay and retain the Masked Killer!
Why is such a troublesome guy targeting Wuhun Palace and Wuhun City! ?
Many red clothes present had such thoughts in their minds.
Such a guy with terrifying methods and powerful power has been wandering in Wuhun City for many years. Even if they are not the target of the opponent, they still have trouble sleeping and eating!
At this moment, these high-ranking figures also experienced the feelings of ordinary residents in Wuhun City.
