--- Chapter 278 ---
A day passed in the Bright Spirit Empire.
However, several new buildings quickly were built with superior technology compared to Douluo Continent's current era. There were dozens of energy generators constructed and used for research.
Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well got utilized as a primary energy source for the new-type nuclear reactor plant. Since It was where Fire and Water Dragon King's corpses remained, Yunlong had to ask Gu Yuena's consent first, to which she agreed with some pleasantries.
Kyudai, Momo, Mei, Saiko, and several more scientists were granted personal labs under Spirit Hall's jurisdiction. They analyzed Martial Soul, Spirit Power, Spirit Ring, Spirit Bone, and Bloodline.
It wasn't hard for them to duplicate Bloodline's characteristic and give it to another living being, but sometimes they failed because the subject couldn't handle or adapt to the Bloodline's factor.
An example of that was a greedy scientist whose body exploded because he wanted to duplicate and fuse Yunlong's bestowed blood to himself.
Yunlong has authority over his blood, and someone who dares to use his blood without consent will receive a horrible backlash.
A drop of his blood is like a precious treasure, which Gu Yuena stated as he most likely turned into the dragon god in the future because his blood was evolving slowly but surely to that height.
The higher the bloodline one possesses, the harder it is to duplicate because the Bloodline has a different kind of complexity and genetic codes.
Yunlong's blood is somewhat different yet similar to the former Dragon God, which bewildered Gu Yuena because she was half of the Dragon God.
The researcher continued to another field like what Spirit Power actually is. There is no way an unknown form of energy doesn't fascinate them because it was like a fantasy or fever dream for some of them.
They did conclude Spirit Power at the same energy as inner energy like Qi/Ki. Regardless, it was more fluid because the atmosphere around them contained spirit energy.
A person with a quirk to manipulate inner energy that his body absorbed has initiated to cultivate and reached spirit rank: level 5 within 12 hours.
Since Yunlong solved the Spirit Ring problem, they branched to Spirit Bone and found a quick way to duplicate it by injecting Bloodline into an artificial bone.
Of course, it was a failure at the first attempt because the artificial bone doesn't have any spirit skill and only raw spirit energy.
They have to choose a specific bloodline with known spirit skill and carefully plant it onto an artificial spirit bone. It took so many great minds and 18 hours to run this procedure.
A skull spirit bone with around 1,000 years old worth of cultivation and a mind-reading spirit skill actually was created. Even though it was weaker than natural spirit bone, it was a significant breakthrough.
Yunlong honestly was surprised by their perseverance because it took so many shadow clones for him to develop Spirit Soul. If he doesn't have a spiritual sea, he might go insane after so many attempts.
As for Martial Soul, Yunlong had to awaken them one by one because he found out Momo's soul was affected by his soul.
Their soul got influenced by him because he brought them here, which means when they walked through a dimensional rift, their soul adapted according to Douluo Dalu's world.
Not to mention their quirk evolved with their martial soul.
Saiko Intelli is an arrogant girl with an IQ quirk, and this quirk multiplies her IQ by drinking tea(different types of it will give her various effects when she consumes it).
She actually awakened a rare martial soul, her body part, or precisely brain. Her martial soul has a great synergy with her quirk, improving it even better than she usually uses.
When Yunlong gave her a tea made of 3,000 years old ginseng and pure green tea from Dugu Bo's garden, Saiko basically turned into a hyper-level genius, opening a new vast field for her.
Since Saiko couldn't gauge her IQ anymore, no one knew how intelligent she was when her quirk activated, but she could solve so many difficult questions in one glance.
Without Saiko, the research actually won't be as smooth as now.
Of course, there is a catch in Saiko's quirk because she couldn't maintain her hyper-level genius's intellect for a long time. Not to mention the special tea she had to consume, Saiko only used her quirk when the research was on a block.
She drank more than 200 cups of tea today, which could lead to quirk exhaustion. If Yunlong didn't stop her from being too addicted to this new sensation, she might lose her sanity.
--- Spirit Lab ---
Yunlong entered an underground facility and saw so many automated devices.
"Well, this is amazing." He commented while walking onto the main conference room, where researchers usually gathered to talk about something.
He looked down and noticed so many labs divided for each researcher.
Since no one limited their imagination, they could create anything as long as it was related to Yunlong's order and was not dangerous to them.
Yunlong smirked and entered Kyudai's lab, which secretly was hidden from others because there were so many sensitive experiments here.
"Ah, Master." Kyudai greeted him with a smile.
"I've finished the work you assigned to me."
Yunlong stared in amazement because Kyudai finished his job within one day. "You're fast." He praised with a surprised tone.
"Hoho, I've been flared with spirit since you've become my master," Kyudai laughed slightly. "After all, I'm doing my best to fulfill your wishes."
He escorted Yunlong to a glass tube filled with green fluid and a pale-skinned naked human. "As you wanted, I created homunculus." he proudly declared.
"This homunculus is genderless and was created based on the flesh you gifted to me and inherently locked to your blood, which means once it woke up, you'll be the master."
"Hmm..." Yunlong wondered about something for a moment because he gave a portion of Tang Chen's flesh to Kyudai, but he didn't expect to succeed in a short amount of time.
"Do you dislike it, master?" Kyudai asked nervously. "I can change the gender to female if you want to..."
Yunlong shook his head and patted Kyudai's shoulder. "It's okay... Good job." He replied naturally.
He called Neo in his mind and asked, 'How many martial souls have I gathered right now?'
[Yours or the one you have devoured with Mortal Sin: Gluttony?]
'Devoured.' Yunlong specified quickly.
[Calculating...]
[You currently have 696,969 Martial Souls]
"Wow, I killed that much..." Yunlong stared at the number with a complicated gaze.
"Pardon?" Kyudai asked curiously.
"No, Not you." Yunlong waved his hand casually. "I'm talking to myself."
He frowned and moved his gaze to the homunculus, calling one of the martial souls he once obtained from people he killed.
A greatsword with a blue jewel embedded in the hilt appeared on Yunlong's hand. He can still use this martial soul as a weapon, but it is barely sufficient for his standard.
"I wondered if this works." He pushed the greatsword through the glass tube, which is a bizarre scene to see because it passes through and doesn't break anything.
The greatsword entered the homunculus's chest and disappeared, leaving a spirit mark on the palm of the artificially created creature.
Yunlong waited for a few minutes and sensed spirit energy enter the homunculus's body, which caused his lips to raise slightly.
Kyudai stared at Yunlong's action with great interest and questioned, "Is that a martial soul, young master."
"Yes, I could obtain a martial soul from people I killed." Yunlong nodded his head. "Let's just say this is my innate ability."
"Does this homunculus have a name?" He looked back at the glass tube.
"Uh... I currently haven't named it." Kyudai awkwardly replied, to which Yunlong responded with an understanding smile.
"Then, I'll grant it a name." Yunlong touched the glass. "Your name is Sieg from now on. I hope you'll become a sword to kill my enemy in the future war."
"Sieg..." Kyudai put on a thoughtful expression.
Yunlong turned around and gave Kyudai a few firm pats. "I want you to create a few more of them."
"How much?" Kyudai excitedly asked, leaving Yunlong mute because he has many martial souls.
"100, no..." Yunlong massaged his forehead. "I want you to create 200,000 homunculi."
Kyudai's eyes widened in shock because he honestly didn't expect such a number, but Yunlong's order was absolute for him.
"Even though I need so many materials... Very well, I'll try my best, master," Kyudai answered.
Yunlong gave him another pat on the shoulder and quietly left the secret lab, walking to Mei, who slammed a metal bar on his face.
Crack!
The metal bar cracked, and Yunlong looked at Mei with a wry expression. "You should be more careful, Mei." He commented.
"Sorry? I'm busy now." Mei gathered the materials she dropped and ran away to her labs, a few meters away from him.
"Excuse me....! I have so many babies to make."
Yunlong peeked through Mei's lab and saw so many inventions scattered on the floor, making her lab the dirtiest among the researchers. Even Kyudai's lab is cleaner than hers.
He sighed and placed a snack with a brief message to not exhaust her body too much.
Mei forced a small explosion in her labs and smelled a pleasing fragrance, making her stomach grumble. "Hmm, Who leave this here?" She looked at the plate with a small note.
"Eh, when did he come here?"
Yunlong strolled through every lab and stopped at David's lab, peeking slightly into it. "He hasn't given up, huh." He observed a few weapon designs around David's labs, which were fusion or upgraded versions of Tang Sect's hidden weapons.
David Shield marveled at Tang Sect's hidden weapons mechanism and tried to fuse it with their current technology. He hasn't created anything yet, but thousands of designs have roamed in his mind.
"Keep up the good work, Uncle David." He commented while continuing his walk.
"Kyaa!" Melissa's squeal escaped the next room, making Yunlong run for it.
When Yunlong arrived at her lab, Melissa actually was playing around with Yuri and threw a few pills at the white fox.
"So cute...!!" She watched Yuri jump and eat every pill in one motion.
"Oh, Yunlong? Did you come to visit me?" Mellisa looked at him with a smile. "I haven't finished your armor yet. Yuri is telling me to feed her."
'It's not like that, master!' Yuri pleaded while hiding between Melissa's legs. 'I'm hungry, okay.'
'There is no other free person besides this girl.'
Melissa chuckled because Yuri was boasting a few minutes ago that she wasn't afraid of Yunlong.
'Save me...' Yuri cried while looking at Melissa.
"I'm on a break anyway, so it's okay." She picked up the white fox and placed it on her lap.
Yuri gazed at Melissa and whispered, 'Thank you, goddess.'
"Yuri, you know I can read and hear your conversation, right?" Yunlong couldn't help but viciously chuckle at the white fox, who nervously dodged his gaze.
"Hehehe..."
'No! NYAA!'
'No...! Please! Nyaa!
'Anything but tickling!'
Yunlong snatched Yuri from Melissa's lap and began to torture the white fox by scratching her furred stomach.
'Hahaha...! Nooooooo!'
Yuri giggled for a few minutes and lay on the floor with a tired look on her face.
"Yuri: 0, Yunlong: 1." Melissa clapped her hand in amusement.
"Do you want a tickle too?" Yunlong suddenly turned around and stared at her. He moved his hand in such a savvy way and caught her off guard.
"Are you kidding me-." Melissa tried to run away, but it was too late.
Since no one could hear anything outside because every lab got soundproofed, Melissa laughed to her heart's content and rolled around on the floor.
"Uugh." She groaned in defeat.
"It looks like you are fine," Yunlong smirked at Melissa. "I just want to check if you were stressed or not."
"Hmph." Melissa puffed her cheeks and ignored him.
Yunlong wryly shook his head and placed the armor Tang Chen used against him on the table.
"This might help you." He said solemnly.
"It increases the user's power to level 99 but has a big downside.'
Melissa's eyes shone bright and quickly scanned the half-destroyed armor. "What kind of metal was this armor made of...?" She whispered.
She grazed the shoulder pads and added, "It's similar to alloy type 69 but harder..."
"Are you confident to copy this armor?" Yunlong challenged her casually.
Melissa put on a thoughtful expression and answered, "Hmph, don't look down on me."
"I'll make better armor than this scrap."
