The Shortcut to Creating a Six-Character Battle Armor

[The Douluo God Realm had clear classifications for divine artifacts: super divine artifacts, pseudo-super divine artifacts, divine artifacts, and quasi-divine artifacts.]

[Across the entire God Realm, a third-rank god possessing a quasi-divine artifact was already considered quite good. If they were fortunate enough to break through their shackles and ascend to a second-rank god in the future, the quasi-divine artifact might be nurtured by the god and evolve into a true divine artifact.]

[Six-Character Battle Armor could not be forged directly. It had to begin as Four-Character Battle Armor crafted entirely from divine-forged metals, then be continuously nurtured through divine consciousness and divine power for a slim chance of advancing into Six-Character Battle Armor.]

[This was why, in the era of Soul Land 3, so many Four-Character Battle Armor Masters and even top divine craftsmen had been unable to create Five-Character or Six-Character Battle Armor.]

[No matter how exquisite mortal forging techniques were, they could not make up for the lack of divine power's nurturing.]

[However, there was another shortcut for bypassing that lengthy nurturing period.]

[That was to deeply fuse a complete divine artifact with Four-Character Battle Armor. Lan Xuanyu, for instance, had combined the Prismatic Divine Dragon Armor with his Four-Character Battle Armor, ultimately creating the Six-Character Battle ArmorDivine Dragon Moon Elegance Emperor Dance—directly saving more than a century of nurturing and accumulation...]

Soul Land 3 Leng Yaozhu: "Fuse it with a divine artifact? There's such a method..."

At Spirit Pagoda headquarters, Leng Yaozhu, seated high above, suddenly lit up. A thoughtful expression appeared on her face.

Fuse the divine artifact itself with Four-Character Battle Armor, then forge it into Six-Character Battle Armor... So that was how it worked...

And in this era, the only treasure on the entire Douluo Continent that might possibly be a divine artifact seemed to be that spatial divine artifact called the Spacetime Shuttle...

At that thought, Leng Yaozhu's breathing faltered slightly. Intense emotion and ambition flashed through her eyes.

Inside the Rose Hotel.

Qin Moyu temporarily put away the battle armor before him.

With a ready-made set of Six-Character Battle Armor, it would not take him long, with the authority of the Herrscher of Reason Divine Core, to fuse with the armor and easily become a Six-Character Battle Armor Master.

As for naming his own battle armor, he was not particularly interested for the moment. He had not thought of a name yet.

Should he really follow the romantic, pure-love naming style from the original Soul Land works, like Golden Dragon Moon Language Universal Language and Silver Dragon Dance Lin Xuanxiu?

Qin Moyu decided to forget it. He could not pull that off...

The desires and pursuits of the human heart had always progressed layer by layer, step by step.

When survival was no longer the only problem, living beings would seek higher-level needs—personal safety, ideals and ambitions, emotional bonds...

Qin Moyu was no exception. From beginning to end, he had never been someone devoted to pure love.

He had lived on Douluo Continent for a full five years and had grown accustomed to five years of poverty. Though Qin Moyu's physical age was still young, his mental age had long since approached middle age.

On Douluo Continent, it was common to discuss marriage at twelve and marry at fourteen.

He was already past the age for that kind of passionate pure love and romance...

Qin Moyu collected the god-grade mecha, gave it a glance, then casually tossed it into the Dark Plane.

This god-grade mecha was a red-grade mecha from the era of Legend of the Dragon King, not a god-grade mecha from the Ultimate Douluo system.

Mechas might be every man's romance, and this scarlet red-grade mecha, gleaming with rippling light and icy cold radiance, possessed terrifying combat power capable of shaking even a Title Douluo or an Ultimate Douluo when unleashed at full strength.

But he was rather lazy and had no time to learn how to operate a mecha.

Compared with cumbersome, massive giant mechas, the lightweight and nimble battle armor system was clearly better suited for Soul Masters. It was a romance that stood above mechas!

Not to mention Six-Character Battle Armor—even a completed set of Four-Character Battle Armor was more practical than a red-grade mecha.

Four-Character Battle Armor could attack and defend at will, offered greater flexibility, perfectly fused with a Soul Master's martial soul and soul bones, and possessed limitless potential for growth.

A red-grade mecha, on the other hand, had its upper limit set the moment it was forged. Its maintenance costs were not insignificant either...

Qin Moyu temporarily closed his diary, and the surroundings immediately fell silent.

Then, he took out a thousand-year Whale Rubber with a warm, jade-like texture from his storage ring. In his other hand, he held the Equivalent Exchange Technology.

To his surprise, the high-dimensional technology in his palm flickered slightly but did not respond.

The Equivalent Exchange Technology did not directly replicate Whale Rubber of the same quality. It was as though a machine had scanned an unrecognizable program during operation and simply skipped it...

"Does this involve the essence of life? As expected, it can't be analyzed so easily..."

Gear patterns abruptly appeared in Qin Moyu's black eyes. The Herrscher of Reason Divine Core ran at full speed, intricate patterns spreading all the way to his palm.

To record an item, the Equivalent Exchange Technology had to thoroughly analyze its material structure—such as gold, Gold Soul Coins, and spatial Soul Tools...

For inorganic objects like these, the Herrscher of Reason Divine Core could easily complete the analysis. But for organic matter like Whale Rubber, which carried the traits of "life" and "genes," the Divine Core could not analyze it.

Just as he had expected, his martial soul limited the authority of the Herrscher of Reason Divine Core. With the strength of a mere three-ring Soul Elder, he simply could not analyze "life technology."

The solution, however, was simple and obvious.

Increase his Soul Power, absorb Spirit Rings, and ultimately allow his martial soul to undergo a perfect transformation.

One day, the Herrscher of Reason Divine Core would break free from the concept of a martial soul and perfectly transform into a true four-dimensional technological construct—the Divine Core.

The true Divine Core should have been a technological creation, not something limited to being a martial soul.

The sole purpose of its birth was to benefit all humanity, allowing everyone the opportunity to undergo an evolution—a dimensional ascension—understand the essence of the Dark Plane's authority, and master the fourth dimension: time!

The long streets of Suotuo City bustled with pedestrians, and the clamor of the marketplace rose and fell without end.

Beside the official road, an ornate carriage of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family rolled over the bluestone pavement and came to a stop.

Inside the carriage, Xue Ke sat serenely. Her features were delicate and gentle, and the etiquette she had cultivated from years in the palace gave her an air of dignity and nobility even while sitting quietly in a corner.

The young girl lightly raised her hand and lifted the gauze curtain with her fair fingers.

Before her stretched a boundless sea of people, countless lives drifting through their days as innumerable figures hurried past one another...

Yet she spotted the lone figure in the distance at a single glance.

The youth stood nearly six feet three inches tall, with sword-like brows and starry eyes. He possessed an otherworldly temperament, while his black eyes reflected dazzling light beneath the sun.

He merely walked quietly, yet strangely, whenever passersby came within two meters of him, they would instinctively move aside before carrying on as though nothing had happened...

Xue Ke's heart stirred softly, and a trace of curiosity arose within her.

Qin Moyu's first impression on her had been that he was handsome and exceptionally refined. Now that she had seen him in person, the shock and visual impact of his naturally extraordinary aura moved her far more than the images recorded in the diary.

Just then, the Diary Copy in Xue Ke's arms updated once more.

[Since I have nothing better to do, I might as well take a trip to Heaven Dou City. It's one of Douluo Continent's rare viral tourist attractions.]

[Of course, nine out of ten transmigrators go to Shrek to cause trouble, specifically to deal with Little Scoundrel and Gangzi.]

Soul Land 1 Liu Erlong: "..."

Soul Land 1 Ning Rongrong: "..."

Soul Land 1 Jiang Zhu: "..."

[Although I don't know the way, this is when I need to pull out the old map I've treasured for so long...]

In truth, this detailed map had been snatched by Qin Moyu from Bibi Dong...
