Worldwide Awakening: My Soul Kinds Are Lost

Chapter 176: Dragon Soul Dragon Soul_1


"I did it." Wang Linchi looked at the Dragon Soul in his hand, which he had successfully extracted.

The only disappointment was that the Beast Soul of the Longevity Immortal Turtle was shattered. It had also cost the Beast Soul of Sky-Howl and a significant amount of resources. Hoping to reshape the Dragon Soul without any cost? Surely, that would be asking for too much.

"The reborn Dragon Soul is too weak; it will shatter under the slightest breeze."

[Dragon Soul]

[Quality: White Porcelain (Recovering)]

[None]

The Dragon Soul was identified as a Soul Device. However, because it had just recovered, its quality defaulted to White Porcelain level, and it currently had no effects.

Fortunately, it was indicated as 'recovering.' This meant that after some time, its quality should significantly improve and reveal its true abilities.

At a minimum, it was expected to reach the Legendary Level. The only uncertainty was when it would fully recover.

However, Wang Linchi didn't plan on waiting for the Dragon Soul to recover. Instead, he intended to incorporate it directly into the Dragon Ball and then immediately begin crafting using the Beast Armour Technique.

Doing so, however, would cause the special energy within the Dragon Ball to be consumed as the Dragon Soul grew. The last five word effects would disappear, and in their place, eight new word effects would be generated through the fusion of the Dragon Soul and the Dragon Ball.

Of course, this didn't mean he planned to do it immediately. Wang Linchi first wanted to thoroughly study the nature of the energy within the Dragon Ball.

After all, it related to his Potential position.

The energy in the Dragon Ball cannot be regenerated. Having only the Dragon Soul and Dragon Ball is not enough unless that dragon is reborn.

So, if I use a part of it, there will be less of it left. It's frustrating.

During these past few days, Wang Linchi had not only managed to reshape the Dragon Soul but had also made very encouraging progress in his research on how the Dragon Ball could increase a person's Potential position.

However, now he was facing a dilemma.

If he wanted the Dragon Ball to regain its Mythology level, he definitely could not continue to extract energy from it. Should the energy prove insufficient for the Dragon Soul's recovery and fusion, the Dragon Ball, originally at the Mythology level, would most likely only retain its Legendary Level.

The difference between the two levels represented a 50% amplification and the loss of three word effects.

The analyzed structural data confirms it: the energy inside the Dragon Ball is a kind of primordial substance, similar to what's found in a fetus during its prenatal stage. When a certain amount is ingested, it simulates a congenital-like environment within the body, inducing a secondary development in humans—essentially, an aptitude enhancement process.

The problem is, even though I've figured this out, it's useless. Where am I supposed to find this kind of primordial substance?

Use a fetus? Not to mention I'm not that depraved. Even if I were, it wouldn't work because it's only *similar*, not identical.

Besides, a fetus and its mother are integrally connected; I couldn't take it even if I wanted to.

He knew that the amount of energy in the Dragon Ball was just enough to simulate the congenital-like environment once. Therefore, Wang Linchi could only look for alternatives.

Fortunately, the Potential position doesn't affect my increase in strength for now.

My thinking has shifted. Previously, I leaned more towards accumulating potential for a gradual, powerful breakthrough. Now... well, forget it. The world's about to end; I don't have the luxury to worry about such things.

It's actually the Beast Armor that's affected.

Consequently, due to the lack of irreplaceable raw materials, Wang Linchi had shelved this technology.

Next, I'll see if I can trick Yan Ming King into slaughtering the Dragon Emperor on Dragon Island. If he skins it, bones it, and gives it to me, I might be able to synthesize this primordial substance indefinitely, Wang Linchi mused. Since Yan Ming King is already so formidable, it wouldn't matter if he became even a bit stronger. In fact, it wouldn't hurt at all.

Wang Linchi wasn't overly optimistic. The primary reason was the difference between dragon species. The dragon he had excavated in the Beast Garden Secret Realm likely had its Dragon Soul and Dragon Ball as energy cores. In contrast, the dragons on Dragon Island possessed a Dragon Crystal in their heads.

One was located at the inverted scale position, while the other was in the brain. Even if both were some form of calcified matter, they were clearly not dragons of the same species.

"I didn't expect you to be so efficient. I thought I'd have to lend you a hand," the Beast God, who had appeared soundlessly, remarked. He looked at the Dragon Soul in Wang Linchi's hand, a minuscule trace of surprise in his expression.

Had Wang Linchi been stronger, his rapid reshaping of the Dragon Soul wouldn't have surprised the Beast God. However, achieving this so quickly with his current level of strength simply meant Wang Linchi was truly extraordinary.

"You need something?" Wang Linchi asked in return.

"It seems I've missed my chance to gain some benefit from you. What a pity." The Beast God, true to his nature of never visiting without a purpose, had apparently arrived a step too late.

"What's there to be sorry about? Where have you been these past few days? I haven't seen you around," Wang Linchi asked, trying to gauge the other party's intentions.

"Packing up my belongings. I'm about to leave, and I certainly can't leave my things behind." The Beast God patted the pouch at his waist, which was evidently some kind of Storage Treasures.

"Oh? If you have no other business, then please don't disturb me." Wang Linchi directly issued an eviction notice, as he didn't hold a favorable impression of the Beast God.

"Wouldn't you like to learn something about the Great Ruins?" the Beast God asked, his tone laced with temptation.

"I do, but not from you." Wang Linchi wasn't a fool; it was clear the Beast God had an ulterior motive for being so eager to offer information.

If I complied without any reservations, the price I would have to pay later would inevitably be excruciating.

'Free' is often the most expensive, especially when dealing with someone so adept at karma and causality. If I simply listened to whatever the Beast God said, I might end up selling myself and still be unable to repay the debt.

Besides, the Beast God had previously mentioned that my own luck was so high I could obtain the Dragon Ball. This indicated that I indeed possessed some kind of innate ability like Strong Luck.

As for its origin, it might be a 'supporting character halo' or perhaps some trait left behind by a transmigrator.

Therefore, I suspected the Beast God had taken a fancy to my Strong Luck. I didn't know if the Town Luck Effect of the Saint Master and the Dragon Ball could withstand the Beast God, but as long as I didn't fall for his tricks, his chances of achieving his goal would be even lower.

"Actually, I suspect you're the Son of Destiny, so I was thinking..." The Beast God trailed off, the implication being he wanted to follow Wang Linchi.

"Then you've got the wrong person. I'm not the Son of Destiny. The real Son of Destiny is someone else, and I even know him," Wang Linchi retorted.

The Beast God looked incredulous. You even know the Son of Destiny?

"Would you like to know? It could save you a lot of time. He went from White Porcelain level to being capable of contending with a Daylight Level Awakener in less than ten years, and he even possesses..." Wang Linchi proceeded to list many of Yan Ming King's accomplishments.

He was trying to set up the Beast God. Although the attempt was clumsy and the Beast God saw through it, he didn't expose it. Instead, he asked directly, "The Dragon Soul for an introduction to him."

"Dragon Soul?" Wang Linchi was puzzled. Wasn't it said there was only the Dragon Soul? How did another Dragon Soul suddenly appear?

"Soul and spirit—if there's a soul, there's naturally a spirit. The Dragon Soul landed on the Longevity Immortal Turtle back then. As for this Dragon Soul... I won't tell you," the Beast God finished with a malicious grin.

"Alright. Then prepare to make an oath; I'll draft the terms." Wang Linchi didn't actually care where this Dragon Soul had been.

As for who got the better end of this deal, I didn't care. I couldn't outsmart the Beast God, an old fox who has lived for who knows how many years. Even if it weren't this specific situation, I would have taken the deal. No matter how big the trap, could it be bigger than the impending apocalypse?

The proceedings went smoothly for both parties. The Beast God wasn't concerned about such details; his manipulation of Wang Linchi was always overt, using enticements to make Wang Linchi willingly leap into any trap.

Such a blatant scheme is difficult to avoid.

Wang Linchi glanced at the Dragon Soul he had just received. Like the first one, it was White Porcelain level, had no effects, and also possessed the 'Growth' characteristic.

"Are there any other related fragments missing?" Wang Linchi asked again.

The Beast God's actions were like dismembering a dragon into several parts to continually bait me.

"No more, truly nothing else this time. However, regarding the Beast Armour Technique, I do have..." The Beast God indeed hadn't tampered with the Dragon Souls or the Dragon Ball, but he possessed a more advanced Beast Armour Technique.

"Forget the Beast Armour Technique; it's of no use to me." Wang Linchi refused without waiting for the Beast God to finish.

I was speaking truthfully. My goal was never the Beast Armour Technique itself; it was merely a reference. I want to create something uniquely my own, not just Beast Armor.

However, the local cultivation system was beneficial for my purposes, so I absorbed it as a reference. In essence, though, I wouldn't become too deeply involved with it—just like with the Saint Master, which is essentially a Soul Series System version of a Ghost Pattern.

"It seems you're very confident. In that case, I'll say no more." The Beast God wasn't annoyed or dissatisfied. He had merely been trying his luck; his primary objective had already been achieved.

As a former World Will, he understood deeply that success could not be achieved through his efforts alone. Only by choosing the Son of Destiny to unite all the world's forces would there be a chance to resist the Great Ruins. Otherwise, individual prowess would be futile.

As for Wang Linchi being able to recommend me to the Son of Destiny, that was to be expected. To possess such Strong Luck, he must have some connection to the Son of Destiny. Otherwise, it would be impossible to have such good fortune at this juncture.
