Two years passed.
Even though Gu Chen had not trained much or absorbed a Spirit Ring, the Soul Power accumulated within him had already reached a level close to Two-Ring.
The total amount of Soul Power in Gu Chen's body far surpassed that of his peers. At nearly every level, it was more than three times that of Soul Masters at the same rank.
The strength in his left hand had reached 530 kilograms, while his right hand had reached 621 kilograms. All one could say was that he was exceptionally gifted, blessed by the heavens, a child of destiny.
As for why there was such a huge difference between the strength of his left and right hands, even he did not know.
One had to know that even God King-level strength could reach hundreds of tons, comparable to a crane!!!
Gu Chen was in no hurry to obtain his first Spirit Ring. While strengthening his body, he consumed certain heavenly treasures that could enhance Mental Power and continued improving it.
His goal was to directly attempt absorbing a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring as his first Spirit Ring. If he failed, he could simply settle for a thousand-year first Spirit Ring instead. In this era, after all, the Spirit Ascension Platform existed.
Even if it could not improve much, it was still better than no improvement at all!
Now, as for Na'er.
Although Na'er felt somewhat dejected because she had not awakened a Martial Soul, she still recovered under Gu Chen's guidance.
Though she had not awakened a Martial Soul, Na'er seemed particularly fond of weapons such as spears, and she appeared to possess extraordinary talent in that regard.
But that was only natural. She had inherited the memories of the Dragon God and was also an incarnation of the Silver Dragon King, even if she had lost her memories.
What about the combat instincts forged over ten thousand years?
In just a few months, she had caught up to Gu Chen in spear techniques and even surpassed him.
Gu Chen could only say that such talent was impossible to envy.
Although he could not hope to gain that sort of combat instinct, Gu Chen did want to learn forging.
In this era, Blacksmiths could be said to have caught the wave of the times, much like Soul Masters twenty thousand years ago and Soul Engineers ten thousand years ago.
Moreover, if one became a Divine Craftsman, one could even forge Four-Word Battle Armor. That was armor capable of raising a level-99 Limit Douluo to the level of a demigod.
The Battle Armor classifications were as follows:
One-Word Battle Armor: Every Battle Armor component was forged through Thousand Refinement, and the wearer needed at least Five-Ring cultivation.
Most One-Word Battle Armor was White Grade or Yellow Grade. Reaching Purple Grade was already exceedingly rare.
One-Word Battle Armor Masters still had a flaw: their Battle Armor was not completely fused with them. The moment they donned it was the moment problems could arise.
Two-Word Battle Armor: Every Battle Armor component was forged through Spirit Refinement, and the wearer needed at least Six-Ring cultivation.
Only when Two-Word Battle Armor was completely fused with its wearer and possessed wings could it be considered true Battle Armor, though Sentient Alloy Battle Armor was an exception.
Three-Word Battle Armor: Every Battle Armor component was forged through Soul Refinement, and the wearer needed at least Seven-Ring cultivation. Three-Word Battle Armor Masters were guaranteed to possess Title Douluo-level combat power. With the enhancement of Three-Word Battle Armor and their Domain Aura, even Seven-Ring Soul Masters could reach Title Douluo-level combat power.
Four-Word Battle Armor: Every Battle Armor component was forged through Heavenly Refinement, and the wearer needed at least Nine-Ring cultivation. Once Battle Armor reached Four-Word level, it possessed a certain degree of spirituality, like a Soul Master's second body. It was also known as demigod armor.
Five-Word Battle Armor and Six-Word Battle Armor: Five-Word and Six-Word Battle Armor could not be forged. They could only be nurtured and upgraded through Divine Sense combined with divine power.
Once all Battle Armor components formed a complete set, it could be upgraded. With every upgrade, another word could be added.
Like Spirit Ring grades, Battle Armor of each word level was divided into White Grade → Yellow Grade → Purple Grade → Black Grade → Red Grade → Gold Grade.
Battle Armor did not necessarily need to be upgraded through forging. It could slowly be nurtured with Soul Power and Mental Power. Above Four-Word level, it required Divine Sense and divine power.
There were generally eleven components: a headband, chest armor, left shoulder armor plus upper-arm armor, right shoulder armor plus upper-arm armor, left gauntlet plus forearm armor, right gauntlet plus forearm armor, waist guard plus battle skirt, left thigh armor, right thigh armor, left shin armor plus battle boot, and right shin armor plus battle boot.
Battle Armor Masters generally received excellent treatment in the Soul Master world. The existence of Battle Armor greatly increased a Soul Master's strength.
Gu Chen did not need to forge Battle Armor himself. If he could check in and obtain a set of Battle Armor from the system later, there would naturally be no need to learn forging. But if he was not that lucky, forging it himself would not be much worse.
In forging, Tang Wulin was two years ahead of him. He had begun learning it two years ago.
With that decided, Gu Chen spoke to the Teacher, left the classroom, and headed for Mang Tian Studio.
In the God Realm that had been swept away by the Space-Time Turbulence, Tang San, who had become a God King twenty thousand years ago and possessed two divine positions, suddenly felt uneasy.
"Brother San, what is it?"
Xiao Wu stood beside Tang San and spoke gently.
Hearing that, Tang San shook his head somewhat helplessly. Even he did not know where this feeling came from.
It felt as though a lamb had been targeted by a fierce tiger. He was that lamb, while the tiger lurked in the shadows.
But he was now a God King. There were practically no threats capable of endangering him.
If it was not a heavenly tribulation, then it could only be a human tribulation!
If the God Realm had not been swept away, he would have made another move against Douluo Continent!
His ten-thousand-year plan could not be destroyed, not even by Douluo Plane's final resistance, its final Child of the Plane!
If that final Child of the Plane, the one destined for the end, could not be subdued, then he would have Father kill him!
Tang San felt no guilt whatsoever over luring the Abyssal Plane to scheme against Douluo Continent and raise its level. In the end, it was all for profit.
Once his child, Tang Wulin, who possessed both the Sea God Bloodline and the Golden Dragon King Bloodline, grew up, he would be far more important than Douluo Continent. Once the God Realm returned, his child would surely become a God King. Such benefits were enough to make him give everything!
As for Douluo Plane's final resistance...
Heh!
"Xiao Wu, I can sense that Douluo Plane has produced its final Child of the Plane. I will use the strand of Divine Sense I left behind to find that Child of the Plane. When the time comes, I will do everything possible to help (leash) him (chain) become (be) a god (a dog). Consider it compensation for Douluo Continent."
Tang San gently placed his hand on Xiao Wu's head and softly stroked it.
In the end, he could not bear to discard a Child of the Plane with the Potential to Become a God. Tang San still intended to make another move through Tang Hao, the Plane Master.
After hearing this, Xiao Wu could not help feeling deeply moved. This was her husband, her beloved. But when she thought of the God Realm's rules, she could not help asking:
"Brother San, gods cannot interfere with the lower realm. If you do this, won't it..."
"It is fine. I am only contacting Father through that strand of Divine Sense. I am not descending to the lower realm myself. Besides, even if I did descend, so what? Who could control me?!"
After saying that, Tang San fell silent, his domineering aura spilling forth.
Evil God and Goodness God were off playing everywhere and ignored their duties. Destruction God and Life Goddess had already sacrificed themselves into the God Realm. He was the only God King left!
Who could control him?
Who would dare control him?! As the saying went: the great tribulation ordained by fate would come, but on the Soul-Severing Road, he would go as he pleased! His time to face the tribulation had not yet come.
Before long, Gu Chen arrived at the entrance of Mang Tian Studio. After pressing the doorbell and waiting for a moment, the studio door opened, and a tall, burly man stepped out.
