Douluo Dalu - The Story Of Sheng Feilong 247 Artficial Soul Bone Researcher

I'm sure all of you have noticed the irregular updates recently and are wondering what's going on.

First of all, don't worry; I myself am perfectly fine and I will definitely NOT drop this Novel.

However, there's a lot of things going on: I've recently had some talks with my boss and I've got a new position at another Location of our company. But that new job is a lot more complicated than my old position.

Previously, I've always been working from home, but I've had to go to the company a lot because of paperwork, to get the required knowledge for my new position, etc., which is why I've had less time to write.

I'll formally start my position at the other location on Wednesday this week, but that also means that it's the end of my life working from home. I'll have to commute there for work as there's a lot of things I won't be able to do from home.

I won't bore you with that stuff, so I'll just say that time is getting tighter. And that means I'll have to compromise writing with everythign else that comes up in daily life.

For now, I'll turn down the uploads to one chapter every other day and see if I can keep that up once work starts for real. If not, I'll have to cut it down even further, but I will not drop this Novel.

There'll also be a 1 week hiatus from July, 15th to July, 21st for work reasons, but uploads will start again at July, 22nd.

Oof. that was a lot of text. I hopy you'll enjoy today's chapter!

"So, does that mean that I can't create a Soul Bone from the Blood Core?" Sheng Feilong questioned. He understood the old lion king's concerns and that it wasn't familiar with human cultivation like Soul Cores and the Blood Core, which was derived from the former, yet what Sheng Feilong wanted was a clear answer.

The old lion king didn't speak as it was still thinking of an answer, however, he shook his head, ultimately giving a negative answer. "Creating a Soul Bone is a process that needs perfect precision. With your strange 'Blood Core', I don't think it would work, at least not the way I would expect for a Soul Bone to be formed. If something went wrong, you could heavily injure, cripple of even kill yourself."

The Body Sect's Innate Secret Technique and the Blood Core were incredible inventions, thus it wasn't weird for the old lion king to not being able to see through them; They were meant for humans to cultivate, not Soul Beasts, and, while they did have similarities to Soul Bones, weren't the same.

Sheng Feilong folded his arms in front of his chest, falling into silence as well. 'I still no too little of the Innate Secret Technique and of Soul Bones... Senior Mu said it's the strongest technique of the Body Sect and that he would teach it to me, so maybe I should focus on that for now. Honestly, I don't even know what would happen if I, a human, were to create a Soul Bone for myself...'

He looked up, facing the old lion king again. "That reminds me- Senior!" The old lion looked down on him, waiting for him to continue. Sheng Feilong jumped to his feet, looking at the old lion with a serious expression and took a deep breath. "Senior, I wish to ask you something... You know that my Master, Song Weihan, creates Artificial Soul Bones, right?"

The old lion king frowned; Clearly, it remembered Song Weihan, though definitely not fondly. "I remember the human called Song Weihan, yes. What about him?" Sheng Feilong hesitated for a moment before speaking to the old lion king again. "Senior... I wish to study Soul Bones together with my Master. But I also know how opposed you are to Artificial Soul Bones."

As soon as Sheng Feilong spoke about Artificial Soul Bones, the old lion king's expression darkened. Sheng Feilong spoke up quickly when he saw that. "Before you say something, please calm down, Senior. I know you despise the process of creating Artificial Soul Bones, but for me, it's really important; It's by far the best way to learn of Soul Bones of all kinds. Moreover, with my Master working on it, I know for sure that no Soul Beasts will be harmed throughout the process."

"...I understand that a Soul Bone is kind of a legacy of a Soul Beast and that tempering with them is highly disrespectful, but... If they're not artificially created, more Soul Beasts will have to suffer because of human greed." Sheng Feilong tried to reason with the old lion king, but its expression didn't change.

Still, it remained silent and listened to Sheng Feilong, which prompted him to continue speaking. "The Soul Bone that I currently have, the one created for your respected sister, it's a special case; It's created from a real Soul Bone, however, that doesn't have to be the case. My Master has already managed to create other Artificial Soul Bones from scratch using only Heavenly and Earthly Treasure. No Soul Beasts had to suffer to create those Soul Bones, which lead to the humans, who obtained those Soul Bones, having no reason to hunt any Soul Beast to satiate their greed."

"Ultimately, the goal of my Master is to create perfect imitations of Soul Bones without the involvement of any Soul Beasts. He certainly doesn't wish t harm any Soul Beasts. And the reason only he and a few selected people work on the Artificial Soul Bones is to protect the Soul Beasts. Others might have killed to obtain better samples to create Soul Bones from, but my Master didn't." Sheng Feilong continued to speak, his words clearly showing the high respect he had for Song Weihan.

And his words seemed to be effective; The old lion king's expression eased slightly, though it was still clear that it wasn't convinced, but that was fine! Sheng Feilong only needed it to tolerate him working on Artificial Soul Bones, not support him in his research. "Senior, learning about Soul Bones is the best way for me to get stronger – The best option to find a way to create a Soul Bone of my own from the Blood Core..."

He ended his words at there, nt saying anything more. The old lion king remained silent for a long time before sighing deeply after a while. "Very well. I won't stop you from learning about Soul Bones and these Artificial Soul Bones. But I will not stand by idly if you ever try to meddle with normal Soul Bones in the name of your research."

This was the old lion king's bottom line, something that Sheng Feilong clearly understood and exactly what he wanted to hear. Sheng Feilong nodded his head in a grave manner afterwards. "I understand, Senior. I won't experiment with any real Soul Bones. Then, I'll leave for the time being..."

The old lion king nodded its head, laying back down on the gra.s.s, while Sheng Feilong took a few steps back before leaving his spiritual consciousness. He was still meditating and took a quick look at his Dantian, making sure everything was okay with his Soul Core and Blood Core, after which he opened his eyes again.

Sheng Feilong was surprised for a moment and looked around the training hall, only to see it empty, with Mu Ye nowhere in sight. "Strange... Senior Mu always waited for me and never left before I awoke from my meditation... Did something happen?" Despite his confusion, Sheng Feilong took out his Soul Communicator to confirm the time; Ho spent quite a while with the old lion king, so he would understand Mu Ye leaving if it was already late at night.

Alas, it was only just past dinner time, which wasn't too unusual considering Sheng Feilong's cultivation habits; He usually cultivated until the sun went down before getting hungry and Mu Ye never seemed bothered. "That's not it, so did something happen for real?"

Sheng Feilong jumped to his feet, still fiddling with his Soul Communicator, pondering whether or not to call Song Weihan, She Meixiao or Mu Ye, though shook his head after a moment of hesitation. He left the training hall, walking through the corridors towards the dining hall, with the Soul Communicator already stored away in his pocket.

Again, there was no one there, the whole dining hall devoid of any people. Sheng Feilong started to get a bad feeling, but shook it off before walking towards the next place he knew at the Body Sect; Mu Ye's office. "It's already past dinner time; Of course there wouldn't be anyone here."

On his way back through the core area of the Body Sect, Sheng Feilong heaven a slight sigh of relieve; He walked past a few more core personnel of the Body Sect, who seemed perfectly fine and calm, so it was unlikely that anything had happened.

The door to Mu Ye's office was closed, so Sheng Feilong knocked on it before entering. As expected, he saw Mu Ye, as well as She Meixiao, Song Weihan and Zhen Hua. He froze, though, as he noticed that were more people inside the office as he antic.i.p.ated. "Senior... Holy Spirit Douluo..? Tang Wulin, Jiang w.a.n.g and you guys... You're all alive?!"

Tang Wulin's expression was a mix of relief, anger and wariness and it was hard to read his emotions. The others were still shaken up by what happened at Shrek Academy and clearly quite affected as they clung near Tang Wulin, who was the most level headed. That was especially true for Gu Yue; She didn't pay Sheng Feilong any mind and looked happy, while she held Tang Wulin's arm. 'She feels like a completely different person...'

Sheng Feilong couldn't help but feel estranged by what he saw, but the most worrisome was still the state of the Holy Spirit Douluo Yali; Her youthful looks were gone and she looks like a frail lady, having aged decades since Sheng Feilong last saw her during the Sea G.o.d's Fated Date Festival, with even her hair having turned a witherly grey.

Her aura was incredibly weak, nothing like it was ever before and with Sheng Feilong's Spirit Power, he could tell that all of them were in disarray and devastated, still Mu Ye and the others must have been talking to them for a while now, as all of them were calm.

Mu Ye and Zhen Hua nodded at Sheng Feilong, while Song Weihan waved him to come over to his side. He walked past Tang Wulin and the others, though couldn't help but glance back at them, where he met Tang Wulin's faintly hostile gaze.

Song Weihan mentioned that he'd tell Sheng Feilong about what had happened later, while the attention of Mu Ye and Zhen Hua went back to Tang Wulin, with the former speaking in a calm tone. "So, what do you intend to do now, Wulin?"

Tang Wulin hesitated for a moment before replying in a low voice. "I'll observe how things progress for now. We'll keep a low profile until things have calmed down, then we'll slowly rebuild Shrek... Before anything else, we have to grow stronger; Strong enough to protect Shrek once we've rebuild it and strong enough to take revenge!"

His hands balled into fists and he looked at Zhen Hua and Mu Ye, wanting to ask them somehting, but before he could speak, a shaky voice came from his side. "I... I don't want to... I just want to return home, to Heaven Dou City and life quietly..."

The ones that had survived the happenings at Shrek Academy were the Holy Spirit Douluo Yali and them, the Shrek's Seven Monsters, yet one of them wanted to quit? Tang Wulin turned to the side, shocked at what he heard. "Jiang w.a.n.g, you...?"
