Chapter 329 Ao Ting's Special Nature! His Return to Donglong Island!
The Palace of Souls.
Chu Yang had already shared his fighting spirit with everyone, and now everyone was sitting around an experimental table, even the God-level Chu Yang had returned.
Whether it's the special fusion that occurred between the Divine Dragon's true spirit and Ao Ting during the ascension process, or the mysterious black crystal, both deserve their utmost attention.
Chu Yang, who was practicing martial arts, had already explained all his guesses, and Chu Yang, who was practicing magic, agreed, saying:
"I think your idea is correct. Whether it is the commonality between the Divine Dragon True Spirit and Ao Ting, or the role of the Spirit Ascension Technique, they all play an indispensable role in this fusion."
"But I always feel..."
At this point, he frowned. "There's another crucial factor we haven't considered..."
The Hokage, Chu Yang, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up: "Could it be that we're overcomplicating things?"
These words immediately attracted everyone's attention. He casually picked up a nesting doll and took it apart.
Placing the smallest inner layer on the table, Hokage Chu Yang continued, "We can compare this to Ao Ting..."
Then he added another layer, "This is the Nine Profound Golden Thunder. Although Ao Ting possesses intelligence, he is ultimately born from the Nine Profound Golden Thunder."
Add another layer, "This is the Thunder Pool. The Nine Profound Golden Thunder is born in the Thunder Pool. In essence, it is a qualitative change resulting from the accumulation of lightning and quantitative change."
After putting on the final layer, Hokage Chu Yang looked up and surveyed everyone. "For the Divine Dragon True Spirit, the entire Thunder Pool is its nourishment, so whether it's absorbing the power of lightning or fusing with Ao Ting..."
"Fundamentally speaking, it was the true spirit of the divine dragon that completely refined the entire Thunder Pool!"
"However, there are some variables within the Thunder Pool, namely, Ao Ting, who has developed sentience!"
"Therefore, during the process of devouring and refining, Ao Ting's intelligence merged with the true spirit of the divine dragon, allowing the true spirit of the divine dragon to possess intelligence and condense into a physical form before it evolved to its limit."
Marvel Chu Yang's eyes lit up. "So, as long as there's a perfectly compatible treasure for the four Holy Spirits to devour, the other three Holy Spirits can also materialize and develop sentience ahead of time?!"
The god-like Chu Yang said lazily, "There's another crucial point: strictly speaking, this isn't a sentience born from the Four Saints' True Spirit, but rather something akin to possession..."
"Although a shortcut was taken, the spirit of the dragon is still Ao Ting's."
"In other words, to replicate the situation of the true spirit of the dragon, one must first confirm the loyalty of the intelligence within the treasure being devoured."
"What if a rebellious son comes along? That would be a huge joke..."
Dou Qi Chu Yang tossed the black crystal in his hand, "What do you guys think of this thing?"
"Undoubtedly, attracting lightning is only one of its uses, but how can we further develop it?"
Da Ming Chu Yang shrugged and said, "Even Pangu was helpless. However, Pangu came to a conclusion that due to insufficient understanding of the Dou Qi world, it was impossible to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the black crystal."
"Your understanding of the Dou Qi world?" Dou Qi Chu Yang narrowed his eyes.
To put it bluntly, this refers to Pangu's lack of data information about the Dou Qi Continent.
The reason why Pangu was able to be invincible in the world of gods was because he had a thorough understanding of dark energy, spatial structure, and even life structure and genetic big data.
However, in the world of Dou Qi, Pangu could not fully analyze Dou Qi, nor could he fully understand the spatial structure, let alone the Great Thousand Worlds above the Dou Qi world.
Beyond the vast world, there exists an even more expansive realm.
"How about... we refine it directly into our forehead bone?" Pirate Chu Yang was becoming increasingly unreliable, and his suggestions were getting more and more outrageous.
The immortal Chu Yang sighed and facepalmed, "Who knows what will happen after refining it?"
"If someone loses their mind, we're all doomed!"
"It seems that spending too much time with Luffy not only makes you become a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur), but also makes you lose your ability to think..." Chu Yang, the sorcerer, quipped.
Pirate Chu Yang leaned back in his chair and said casually, "Don't you guys think this state is very relaxing?"
Essentially, we are all one person, so no matter how bad Chu Yang is, he can't possibly be as thick-skinned as Luffy.
He did this intentionally, to enjoy the feeling of relaxing completely.
Suddenly, Chu Yang, the Demon Slayer, said, "There's another problem, and that's Ao Ting... its existence is rather peculiar..."
Everyone's expressions hardened. Indeed, as Chu Yang of Ghost Slayer said, although inanimate objects could be brought into the Soul Palace, living beings could not be brought in.
Even if it is a soul or spirit, it can only be passively pulled into the soul palace when the other party invades its spiritual world.
So, after the Dragon Spirit completes its transformation, is the wisdom it possesses exclusive to Dou Qi Chu Yang, or can it manifest in any world?
"I'll give it a try!"
Without saying a word, Pirate Chu Yang immediately unleashed his Origin Martial True Body, only to discover that the Four Symbols True Spirits behind him... had only three left!
"Holy crap!" Pirate Chu Yang yelled, "Where did my massive dragon spirit go?!"
"I'll try my luck in the Super God World!" Super God Chu Yang stood up and soared into the nebula.
A moment later, he returned, his expression somewhat strange, and said, "He wasn't affected in the Super God World at all; even Ao Ting's intelligence remains, but everything is unfamiliar to him!"
"So..." Magic Chu Yang's eyes widened, "our divine dragon spirits share the same intelligence?"
"That should be it. Let's try summoning both worlds at the same time and see if there's a conflict!" Super God Chu Yang suggested.
After several attempts, the group finally came to a conclusion.
That is, apart from being in the Soul Palace, Yuanwu's true body and the Four Saints' true spirits will not be affected in any way, and Ao Ting's intelligence will be manifested without any error.
Moreover, even if Chu Yang from different worlds summons the Four Sacred Spirits at the same time, there will be no conflict between them.
"Incomprehensible..." Marvel Chu Yang felt that this phenomenon was incomprehensible no matter how it was viewed from the perspective of any other world.
Dou Qi Chu Yang laughed and said, "Don't you guys think... Ao Ting's situation is very similar to ours?"
His words were like a wake-up call, and everyone instantly understood the key point.
They share memories, share power, share everything, yet remain independent and do not interfere with each other!
Isn't Ao Ting's situation exactly the same as theirs?
"I see. It seems we still have many blind spots in our understanding of the Soul Palace!" Super God Chu Yang shook his head and chuckled.
"I will fill in the data gaps in the Pangu database for the Dou Qi world as soon as possible. If I still cannot analyze the black crystal, I will have to wait until I enter the Great Thousand World to find a solution."
Dou Qi Chu Yang stood up and said, "As for the treasure that I refined into my forehead bone, I have some ideas, but it will take some time."
Super God Chu Yang nodded and said, "There's no rush. Karl hasn't connected to the void yet. Once we get the core data of the Great Clock and combine it with the treasure refined into the forehead bone, we can upgrade Pangu into a cosmic-level computer in one fell swoop."
After discussing some core issues concerning Pangu for a while, Super God Chu Yang and Battle Qi Chu Yang left separately, as they still had many things to do.
…………
The void, Donglong Island.
Compared to two months ago, when Chu Yang returned here, he clearly noticed that the silver protective shield covering Donglong Island was much stronger.
As soon as they approached the protective barrier, a burly man stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Halt! State your purpose!"
Chu Yang smiled and said, "Please inform Elder Zhu Li or Elder Qi You that Chu Yang has arrived."
The burly man was taken aback for a moment, then quickly cupped his hands in a respectful bow and said politely, "So you are Mr. Chu Yang! I apologize for my rudeness!"
Chu Yang raised an eyebrow. "You know me?"
The burly man grinned and said, "Everyone on Donglong Island knows the name of Mr. Chu Yang!"
"You are a benefactor to our Donglong Island, and a noble person to the entire Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan!"
Chu Yang immediately understood what was going on and asked with a smile, "You've already found the old Dragon Emperor's bloodline?"
The burly man nodded and said, "Thanks to your information, sir, we discovered the young master the moment she entered Zhongzhou and kept it a secret from the other three Dragon Islands."
"The two elders instructed that as soon as you arrive, they will take you to see them immediately!"
"Please follow me, sir!"
The burly man then led Chu Yang into the protective barrier, but instead of leading him to the main hall, he took him directly to a quiet courtyard.
In the courtyard, Zhu Li and Qi You sat facing each other, both with worried expressions on their faces.
"Elders, Mr. Chu Yang has arrived!"
The burly man announced something at the entrance of the courtyard, and then I gestured for Chu Yang to enter.
Chu Yang walked into the courtyard and teased with a smile, "I heard that Donglong Island has already found the old Dragon Emperor's bloodline. Why do you two seniors still look so worried?"
Upon seeing him arrive, the two quickly stood up. Zhu Li smiled wryly and said, "Although we made preparations in advance thanks to your information, young friend, and even managed to find the young master..."
"But the young master has been away for many years, which has delayed his cultivation. He still needs some time to grow."
"Our major move by Donglong Island has attracted the attention of the other three major dragon islands. They have joined forces to put pressure on us, wanting to hold a clan meeting on Donglong Island."
Qi You snorted coldly, "What a load of rubbish about a clan assembly! Those treacherous bastards are clearly just trying to test us!"
"Once they enter Donglong Island, they'll definitely be able to sense the young master's bloodline!"
Chu Yang raised an eyebrow. He revealed the news to Donglong Island, changing Zi Yan's original fate and keeping the other three major dragon islands unaware of her return.
It now seems that the three Dragon Kings are not so easy to fool. If I hadn't come here, the plan of Donglong Island to secretly cultivate a little dragon emperor would probably have been completely exposed.
"Actually, this is easy to solve. I can help conceal Zi Yan's presence, and then you can use me as a shield..."
Chu Yang said casually, "They said that an elder who was in seclusion was nearing the end of his life, so Donglong Island went to great lengths to invite me, a ninth-grade alchemist, over."
Both of them were slightly taken aback. Zhu Li was a little slow to react and subconsciously asked, "Young friend... are you a ninth-grade alchemist?"
Qi You snapped out of her daze, glared at him, and said irritably, "Whether or not young friend Chu Yang is a ninth-grade alchemist, his strength at the Dou Sheng realm is undeniable."
"At least the three Dragon Kings won't keep pressing the matter!"
Zhu Li gave an awkward smile, and Chu Yang waved his hand and said, "I am indeed a ninth-grade alchemist. I am visiting again today to ask the two elders for a small favor."
"Young friend, you have done my clan a great favor and have once again lent a helping hand. Please feel free to ask if you need anything!" Qi You thumped his chest loudly.
Chu Yang took out a list and handed it over, saying, "I need the medicinal herbs listed here. I wonder if Donglong Island can provide them?"
Zhu Li took the list and glanced at it, but his eyelids twitched. Most of the medicinal herbs on it were very valuable, and almost all of them were used to refine eighth-grade pills or even ninth-grade pills.
If all the medicinal herbs on the list were gathered, even for Donglong Island, it would be almost impossible to empty the entire treasure trove of medicinal herbs.
It should be noted that the three major magical beast races rely heavily on rare and precious materials. They have the advantage of their bloodline and do not need to worry about growing too fast and causing their foundation to become unstable.
Therefore, all members of the clan consume large amounts of rare and precious herbs during their childhood to accelerate their growth.
Now that Zi Yan has just returned, Donglong Island needs a large supply of medicinal herbs to help her grow quickly.
If all the medicinal herbs on the list are given to Chu Yang, Donglong Island will face a shortage of medicinal herbs.
"What are you still standing there for?" Qi You asked, somewhat displeased, puzzled.
Chu Yang has helped Donglong Island so much, and now all he needs are some medicinal herbs. However, it's really unreasonable for Donglong Island to be so stingy with its own herbs.
Moreover, the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan never lacked medicinal herb reserves. Even though Donglong Island was in decline, its medicinal herb reserves were comparable to those of the Pill Tower.
But when Qi You took the list from Zhu Li, who had a wry smile on his face, he fell silent.
After a long silence, he finally said somewhat reluctantly, "Um... young friend..."
"As you know, we have just welcomed our young master back and need a lot of rare and precious treasures for her cultivation."
"The list of medicinal herbs is quite extensive. Could you please give me some first? When the young master ascends the throne, my clan will repay you double..."
"Uh...no! Triple the amount!"
Seeing their expressions, Chu Yang shook his head and chuckled, "I'm not taking this for free. I'll combine these medicinal herbs according to their properties and refine some pills that can multiply the medicinal power of the herbs."
"I will only take half of the pill; the rest will be left to Donglong Island."
"Even if it's only half, the effect will be at least twice as strong as taking all the herbs directly."
Upon hearing this, both Zhu Li and Qi You stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.
They all knew that if an alchemist refined the medicinal herbs into pills, even if they weren't true elixirs, the medicinal properties of the herbs would not be lost in the slightest.
But the problem is...
They had never heard of an alchemist being able to multiply the potency of a pill during the purification process!
Zhu Li seemed to remember something, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly, and he tentatively asked, "Young friend...you..."
"You're not really a ninth-grade alchemist, are you?"
