Chapter 155 Star Soul Art, Looking for the Sea Princess
Poseidon Island is located in the western sea of Douluo Continent. There are three overlords in the surrounding waters, namely the Demonic Killer Whale King, the Demonic Soul Great White Shark King and the last Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. .
As the place where Poseidon became a god, the energy around Poseidon Island is naturally the most intense, and theoretically more than three overlords can be born.
However, due to the existence of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, in the past 20,000 years, in order to break through the million-year dragon transformation bottleneck, a large number of soul beasts that are expected to become 100,000-year-old soul beasts have exceeded 100,000. Before the annual bottleneck, everything was swallowed into its belly and became nourishment.
The only ones who can survive this cruel competition for survival and break through the 100,000-year bottleneck in the end are the two top-level soul beasts, the Demonic Orca King and the Demonic Great White Shark King.
The former is because the members of the Evil Demonic Orca tribe are all very powerful in combat. Even the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King is not willing to provoke them easily when they are in a group. They finally passed the period of achieving 100,000 years.
Although the latter group is weaker than the Evil Killer Whale, it is also protected by the sea soul beasts of Poseidon Island, so there is no need to worry.
To sum up, even the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King dare not say that he can easily take down these two.
But with the vastness of the sea, there is always room for other spirit beasts to survive.
In the sea area radiating thousands of kilometers away with Poseidon Island as the center, the energy concentration here has dropped significantly, but on a larger number base, there are always sea soul beasts that can reach the level of 100,000 years. .
In the North Sea in the north of the Douluo Continent, there is a race that has long believed in the sea god and has not competed with the world - the mermaid clan.
This group has the upper body of a human and the lower body of a fish. They are the mermaids in human legend. You Chen prefers to call them the mermaid clan directly.
The leader of the mermaid clan is also known as the Sea Princess.
The contemporary Sea Princess has survived ten thousand years later. In this era, she also has a terrifying cultivation level of 590,000 years.
After all, it is not around Poseidon Island, and the energy concentration is not that high. In addition, Princess Shanghai has long since no longer needed to improve her strength to maintain her status among the North Sea Soul Beasts. Naturally, she is not in a hurry to improve her cultivation. After all, it is fierce Every time a beast breaks through the 100,000-year bottleneck, it will face a horrific catastrophe a thousand years later. Until it really survives, no one knows whether their hard work in cultivation is just a rush to reincarnate.
Although the bloodline of a soul beast is not as good as top sea soul beasts such as the Demonic Orca, it can definitely be called a quasi-top soul beast.
A level 98 soul master with fifty-nine thousand years of cultivation is comparable to a human being. Even an Extreme Douluo can barely survive in the sea. When this sea princess makes another breakthrough, she possesses six A hundred thousand years of cultivation might be enough to compete head-on with the Ultimate Douluo in the sea.
In terms of overall strength, Sea Princess is definitely above the Evil Killer Whale King.
But for You Chen, the difficulty of dealing with them is not much different.
Because the Sea Princess has a huge weakness compared to the Evil Killer Whale King, and that is her body.
It is difficult for human soul masters to judge, but among the smaller soul beasts, the physical strength will never be too high.
If the physical strength of the Evil Killer Whale King belongs to the first echelon of the Ultimate Douluo level, then Princess Sea, whose overall strength is comparable to a level 98 human soul master, is probably at the bottom level of a Super Douluo. .
The defense is weak and the vitality is also weak.
The size of the Evil Killer Whale King may not be defeated by an ordinary Super Douluo for a long time, but the size of the Sea Princess is only a minor injury to the Evil Killer Whale King, and it may be more than half the size for the Sea Princess. The body is gone.
With Youchen's assassination ability comparable to that of a top assassin, it is entirely possible to kill the Sea Princess in one fell swoop before she can even react.
On the other hand, a large part of Sea Princess's strength is due to her strong mental power. Mental power is the greatest strength of this soul beast.
But for You Chen, mental power is also his strong point. Even if he is inferior to the sea princess, relying on the protection of the star tower in the spiritual sea, he is not afraid of the other party's mental attack and directly makes the sea The princess's threat level is greatly reduced.
And You Chen is a hexagon player. Even if his mental power cannot play a role, in other aspects he is still at least an upper-middle level Super Douluo, which is enough to threaten Princess Sea.
To deal with the Sea Princess, the most important issue to pay attention to is not the Sea Princess herself, but the group of soul beasts she protects.
The Sea Princess can connect the soul powers of many sea soul beasts together through the racial talent soul skill Mermaid Song, achieving an effect similar to the seven-in-one soul power fusion in the original work.
This allows many thousand-year soul beasts and even thousand-year soul beasts that were originally unable to pose a threat to You Chen to cause obstacles to You Chen.
If there are many other soul beasts around it when it fights Sea Princess, then it is very likely that You Chen will have to spend a lot of energy to deal with these soul beasts.
Just like You Chen has the Star Tower and is not worried about the spiritual attack of the Sea Princess, You Chen cannot guarantee that with the connection of the Mermaid Song, his group spiritual attack will also be weakened, making him unable to It works.
What's more, Princess Sea is a ferocious beast worth 590,000 years. It cannot be ruled out that she has other subordinate soul beasts that are at the level of 100,000 years. You Chen can indeed kill ordinary hundred thousand year soul beasts instantly, but this requires the use of some expensive tricks, and there is no guarantee that Princess Hai will seize the opportunity to attack other hundred thousand year soul beasts and cause devastating consequences to herself. kill.
So the best thing is to find the gap where Princess Sea is alone, and kill Princess Sea before the other guarding soul beasts arrive to rescue her.
However, killing the Sea Princess would almost mean turning against Poseidon Island if there was no guarantee that no information would be leaked.
The mermaid clan has always been repulsive to humans, but after all, like Poseidon Island, they have pure faith in Poseidon.
Before Poseidon became a god, he was also a human soul master. Whether the mermaid clan hates Poseidon Island soul masters as much as they hate other humans, there must be a huge question mark.
No, there is no need to put a question mark.
It can be seen from the Ama Douluo, a Saint Pillar Douluo who belongs to the mermaid clan and is half human and half sea spirit beast, that there must be a close connection between the two parties.
To kill the Sea Princess, unless the assassination was really done without anyone noticing, with the number of Sea Soul Beasts here, it would be impossible for You Chen not to reveal any of his information.
In addition, he had just hunted the Evil Killer Whale King not long ago. Poseidon Island will definitely connect these two soul beasts that have hunted one hundred thousand year old soul beasts and ferocious beasts. Or even decisively treat them as the same person.
Then will You Chen stop here and choose other soul beasts as targets?
Of course it’s impossible!
You Chen is extremely satisfied with this sea princess, regardless of the soul skills she produces or the age of her soul ring. Is there any reason to miss it?
The soul ring's improvement to the soul master is nothing more than soul power, physical strength, and mental power.
Needless to say the first two, as for spiritual power, it is not only possible to improve by absorbing the soul rings of those spiritual beasts.
Even a ten-year soul ring can have the effect of improving a soul master's mental power. However, basically the intelligence of a soul beast under ten thousand years will not be too high, and the corresponding improvement in mental power will be minimal. .
The reason why old-era soul masters regard ten thousand years as the optimal age for the fifth ring is due to two factors.
One is regardless of age. Every time a soul master equips a soul ring, it is equivalent to installing a soul stabilizer. It not only limits the wild growth of the origin of the soul, but also affects the soul master. A kind of protection. When absorbing a soul ring, both the shock from the unrefined soul ring and the subsequent mental shock will be weakened accordingly.
This is also one of the reasons why the more soul rings there are, the longer the next ring can be absorbed. The optimal limit life of each ring is nearly doubled. The first few rings are okay, but the subsequent ten-thousand-year soul rings are still the same. A large part of the credit is due to the restrictive effect of the previous soul rings.
Why did You Chen obviously use the soul power borrowing method, and the life of the second ring was 40,000 years, but the third ring only increased by 20,000 years, reaching only 60,000 years?
It can be seen from the lack of stability of the martial soul's origin in the first three rings mentioned earlier. It is precisely because the martial soul's origin is not stable enough when absorbing the first three soul rings. When dealing with unrefined souls, The ring shock ability is very poor.
From the fourth ring onwards, after the origin of the martial soul has been completely stabilized, the calculation formula for the optimal age of the soul ring begins to be obviously affected by the number of soul rings.
With the help of the soul power borrowing method, when You Chen absorbs the fourth ring, it is equivalent to using the soul power strength of the 60-level breakthrough soul emperor to absorb, coupled with the quality of his martial soul, terrifying physique and reverse Tian's spiritual power has an optimal lifespan of 150,000 years, and the fifth ring's optimal lifespan is about 300,000 years. It is not a problem for the sixth ring to absorb a 600,000-year soul ring.
Even if you don't need the soul ring age doubling card that ignores the burden of the soul ring, You Chen's seventh ring is enough to absorb a million-year soul ring, which is the theoretical limit of the soul ring's life!
However, at that time, the total number of years of the soul rings that Youchen II will bear will reach 190,000 years, which is close to 2,000,000 years!
With the soul saint's cultivation level, he can withstand a 2 million-year soul ring...
Unless You Chen relies on one life to break through the two major bottlenecks of Titled Douluo and Extreme Douluo, and has two lives. The sublimation of the level, or the divine elephant's prison-suppressing power has a huge breakthrough, otherwise I am afraid that the second body will not be able to attach any more soul rings.
A little off topic, back to the issue of considering ten thousand years as the optimal age for the fifth ring.
This second element is naturally to absorb the spiritual power improved in the previous rounds.
Even if it is not as good as the improvement of mental power as a soul ring of more than ten thousand years, after four soul rings, plus the fact that human beings are already far more talented in mental power than soul beasts, this mental power has a high probability of reaching psychic powers. Realm, which is what later generations call 100 points of spiritual power.
Coupled with the resistance of the four soul rings to mental shocks, normally the ten thousand year soul ring can be successfully attached as the fifth soul ring.
The Sea Princess, whom You Chen is now planning to hunt for a soul ring, is a soul beast with spiritual power as its main attribute.
After absorbing this soul ring, You Chen's mental power will definitely be able to enter the late stage of the spiritual realm and go a short distance away.
And a better result is that the sea princess directly explodes the soul bone of her head. After absorbing the soul bone of her head, You Chen's mental power can definitely reach the peak of the spiritual realm, and there is even a high probability that he can directly cross the divine realm. If the threshold of the Yuan realm is coupled with You Chen's special ability to see through the autumn water, the probability can be raised to 100% boldly.
Mental power greatly affects the soul master's thinking speed and insight. It also improves the talent of understanding the origin of martial souls and many other aspects.
Using spiritual consciousness to conduct research and study can definitely greatly improve the efficiency of You Chen's many subsequent cultivation plans.
Under various factors, You Chen is destined to win Princess Hai.
Following the direction indicated on the chart, You Chen quickly started on his way again.
Flying from the West Sea to the North Sea, even at Youchen's speed, it took a full day.
The output of materials in this world, such as rare ores and marine plants, are more likely to appear in places with higher energy concentrations.
This is why the West Sea of Douluo Continent has become the most popular sea area for expedition fleets in the past half year.
The North Sea is the most popular sea area after the West Sea.
However, just as the spirit masters from Poseidon Island in the West Sea posed as pirates to rob the fleet, which greatly dampened the enthusiasm of the adventurers who set sail, in the North Sea there are a large number of spirit beasts organized into systems They began to attack ships.
In addition, pirates are also rampant in the South China Sea and the East China Sea, where supplies are not so prosperous.
Today, You Chen directly regards pirates as the soul masters of Poseidon Island. Although this Poseidon Island is located in the Western Sea, it is nominally the controller of the entire sea. It is not surprising that it is the holy land in the hearts of all sea soul masters, and its tentacles are spread all over the east, west, south, and north seas.
In fact, You Chen guessed that in the North Sea, there were sea soul masters colluding directly with the soul beasts ruled by the Sea Princess.
However, these are not the problems that You Chen needs to deal with at the moment.
Although many soul master fleets failed, they also found out a lot about the situation in the North Sea.
The Crystal Palace was what a soul master saw when his ship was destroyed by a sea soul master, chased by many sea soul beasts, and fled back in a hurry.
According to his description, it was a palace hidden in the deep sea.
Although the specific location was somewhat vague due to the panicked escape, the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce still measured the approximate location based on the route it took to escape.
As for on-site investigation? You Chen couldn't bear to let his good employees spend their time in such a dangerous place.
Although due to the lack of this level of verification, the possibility that the person lied in order to earn money for information cannot be ruled out, but when thinking of the title of Princess Sea, You Chen was willing to believe it.
Come to think of it, only the mermaid clan in Beihai is qualified to live in this kind of place.
And if the soul master really told a lie and his trip was in vain... then of course he could only evaporate from the world.
Well, literally disappeared from the world. Ignis must be very happy to take on this task.
All the way deep into the North Sea, You Chen gradually became convinced that the soul master was indeed not telling lies.
Because, as he flew along the approximate direction measured by the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce, he began to clearly see the traces of the several major soul beast groups that were attached to the mermaid clan.
Under his meticulous perception, the concentration of energy is gradually increasing.
This feels more and more like "going deep into the core".
You Chen was not in a hurry to go deeper. He wandered around and observed the positions of several soul beast groups carefully, and suddenly found that they vaguely presented a defensive formation in the outer ring.
His eyes lit up, he took out the chart, sketched on it, filled in the positions of several ethnic groups, and after revising and adjusting the positions of several wrong landmarks, he used The method of calculating the center of the circle marked the location of a new "Crystal Palace".
The difference between the two Crystal Palace landmarks on the map is only a few centimeters. In reality, the difference is probably hundreds of kilometers.
If You Chen’s calculations are correct and his luck is a little bit worse, it may take a while to find him in this vast sea.
After all, this Crystal Palace is located under the sea, in deep water, and it is not as convenient to detect as the markers on the surface.
Then, just as You Chen calculated, he concealed his aura and successfully found the location of the Crystal Palace.
The size of this Crystal Palace is even larger than what the soul master described. It is not so much a palace as it is a huge undersea ruins hidden deep in the trench. Its area is close to one Small city.
If you want to find the location of the Sea Princess, it is natural to use your mental power to sweep away the fastest way.
But You Chende did this because he was out of his mind and crazy.
That would be equivalent to giving up the advantage of being an assassin hidden in the dark.
If you really want to see the Sea Princess, you don’t have to go to such trouble at all.
The mermaid clan, together with their vassal clans, have a very high sense of companionship compared to the three dominant soul beast clans on Poseidon Island.
Just to lure the sea princess to show up, to be extreme, You Chen could kill the thousand-year soul beast near the North Sea coast of Douluo Continent and attract the ten-thousand-year soul beast. He could kill the ten-thousand-year soul beast and attract tens of thousands of years. The soul beast... and so on, directly fished out the Sea Princess.
But at that time, not to mention that the spirit beasts will gather into a large army, and may even attract support from Poseidon Island.
Sweeping directly with mental power will not lead to such exaggerated consequences, but the essence is the same.
Given that the sea princess is very likely to have stronger mental power than her current self, there is no telling who discovered whom.
You Chen had such a big circle, collected intelligence beforehand, and explored it personally. Wasn't it to keep it as secretive as possible and not alert other people and other forces?
Now, it is natural to repeat the same trick, just like when he used his clone to pay attention to the mental consumption of the evil killer whale king, he directly used his senses to find the whereabouts of the Sea Princess.
After thinking about it, You Chen dived into the water with a splash and swam towards the depths of the trench.
With You Chen's current physical condition, even in the deep sea, he can do it all day and night without having to breathe.
Of course, this has some impact on combat power, but it is not too much.
At a critical and necessary moment, you can use the air compression soul skill to forcefully push away the seawater to create a waterless pure oxygen environment to facilitate combat.
The magic damage of pure oxygen is greatly reduced for the strong Super Douluo with physical specialties. After all, their physical vitality is exaggerated. The power of this kind of continuous damage may not be greater than the speed of their natural blood recovery... …
And You Chen is such a strong person from the physical school.
As for You Chen’s starlight incarnation, there is no need to breathe at all.
This Crystal Palace seems to be embedded in a trench. In addition to entering through the main entrance, you need to break through the external building structure to enter by force.
Destroying the building will naturally attract attention, and the main entrance is always guarded by a spirit beast. Judging from its appearance, it is a ten thousand-year-old spirit beast of the sea saury family.
The seven major groups, including the Sea Demon Elephant Clan, the Sea Whale Clan, the Sea Swordfish Clan, the Seahorse Clan, the Sea Snake Clan... are the direct supporters of the Princess Huan Clan. Each of them is a powerful high-level soul beast, similar to a high-level soul master. Wuhun.
Although it is difficult for this high-level soul beast to break through the limit of one hundred thousand years, with the protection of Princess Sea, it is not difficult to cultivate a soul beast that is ten thousand years old.
Selecting the best among the best, there are some who are stronger than the relatively ordinary mermaids in the mermaid family.
Able to directly serve as a gate guard, this sea saury must also be an elite among the tribe.
However, You Chen, the elite among the thousands-year-old sea saury guarding the main gate, has many methods to kill him instantly.
But there is no guarantee that other guards will not be alerted.
Fortunately, You Chen has the BUG technique called Breath Condensation Technique.
By completely integrating with the environment and identifying the blind spot of the guard's vision, You Chen easily sneaked into the Crystal Palace.
With You Chen's five senses, even in an unsuitable environment like underwater, he is as good as a superman.
Even though he didn't turn on the full mental map, he still had a clear understanding of the surrounding situation. He knew exactly when and where someone would appear.
It didn't take long for You Chen to find a safe place and differentiate into six starlight incarnations.
The essence of these starlight incarnations is still soul power. With You Chen's current soul power control ability, he can quickly shape them into the appearance of the soul beasts in the undersea crystal palace by manually pinching them.
Judging from the size of the main entrance of the Crystal Palace, the ones that can move here must first exclude large spirit beasts such as sea monsters and sea whales.
Considering the function of the guards, the soul beasts of the two more flexible groups, the sea saury fish clan and the sea horse clan, are basically the main ones.
You Chen's incarnation also transformed into the appearance of these two soul beasts, and soon began to wander around the Crystal Palace, trying to find the location of its core palace as much as possible.
The six avatars walked in front like cruisers, while You Chen himself was nestled in the center of the search circle formed by the six avatars.
The reason why I chose to sneak instead of pretending to be a patrolman and talk to other patrollers is that the search efficiency is not high, and the second is that it is easy to reveal the truth directly when questioned.
If you use an avatar, you can be discovered unexpectedly, and you still have room for mediation.
As long as he is not discovered to be a human intruder, even if he is caught temporarily, it will have no effect on You Chen at all. On the contrary, it can distract some of the patrollers' attention.
The whole journey went smoothly.
You Chen noticed that the number of surrounding guards decreased significantly, but the corresponding quality increased significantly.
The sea soul beasts I met were each more elite than the last, and there were probably many strong ones who could fight Contra.
The mermaid family gradually began to occupy the mainstream.
You Chen naturally became vigilant, which all meant that he was gradually approaching the core area of the Crystal Palace.
And at this moment, I had never met any other sea soul beasts before, but now I suddenly turned the corner and met Ai.
Without any precaution, without the slightest step or vibration of the water waves, an incarnation of You Chen bumped into a mermaid with a crown on her head at the corner.
