Chapter 285: 163 Chapter Officially Named Undead, Our Duty Is Indisputable_2

It’s worth a try, but don’t get your hopes up too high.

Both of these paths essentially place hope in external factors.

"Forget it."

"Advanced Necromancy was developed by people, and I have the basics of necromancy, so why couldn’t I delve into studying Soul Power myself? Even if I don’t get a reward, there might be a chance to develop similar abilities on my own."

"Mr. Husky! King of Sudden Death!"

Lu Ran’s brows relaxed as he summoned both Mr. Husky and the King of Sudden Death.

After all, in this Breakthrough Secret Realm, other than the breakthrough task, there wasn’t much else of particular importance, so Lu Ran planned to use his free time to study Soul Power with Mr. Husky and the King of Sudden Death.

Having summoned his two Pet Beasts, Lu Ran looked at the Soul Suppressing Stone Brick in his hand.

"King of Sudden Death! Don’t resist." Lu Ran had previously tried it on Mr. Husky without any reaction. According to the Preacher, it was because Mr. Husky’s Soul Talent and Strength were exceptional, and his soul couldn’t be extracted with such a mineral.

Besides, Soul Talent was also related to comprehension, which was a concept that Lu Ran was hearing for the first time.

Mr. Husky did indeed have impressive comprehension. Lu Ran felt that if this statement was true, then in the future, if he could develop Advanced Necromancy, he maybe could further enhance Mr. Husky’s comprehension by strengthening its soul.

And as for the King of Sudden Death...

"Roar???" The King of Sudden Death looked utterly bewildered as it was met with a brick from Lu Ran, and the next moment, its soul was directly smacked out.

"Waka waka..." However, to Lu Ran’s astonishment, the soul of the King of Sudden Death was not proportional to its body size at all; instead, it was a very small Red-eyed Eagle Lizard, only about half the length of an arm.

Damn.

It’s one thing for you to be smacked out.

But why has your soul shrunk compared to your body?

Lu Ran wasn’t sure what exactly was going on with the King of Sudden Death’s soul.

Compared to previous testers, the King of Sudden Death’s soul appeared almost materialized, very distinct, and seemingly of high quality.

But... less than a minute after being smacked out, the King of Sudden Death looked like it was about to die, as it quickly retreated its Lizard soul back into its body.

"Waka!!" The King of Sudden Death sat its butt down on the ground, a look of fright on its face, gasping for air.

"Woof!!" Beside it, Mr. Husky showed a mocking expression, laughing at the King of Sudden Death for being weak since its soul could be smacked out by a stone.

"Roar!!!" The King of Sudden Death bared its teeth, looking bitter and sorrowful at Lu Ran, accusing him of a sneaky attack lacking martial virtue.

However, as miserable as it was, the King of Sudden Death noticed that Lu Ran was still laughing beside it!

"Interesting." After a moment of shock, Lu Ran indeed showed a smile.

"It seems that the Power of the Soul still hides many secrets." Lu Ran said, holding the Soul Suppressing Stone and smiling happily.

"Choosing the necro system seems like the right choice."

Lu Ran said, "King of Sudden Death, don’t be sad. Your Soul Strength is not weak; it just seems like you’re not suited for switching to the necro system, with an adaptability Talent that doesn’t quite match. But I never intended to train you and Mr. Husky in the necro system anyway."

"However, I do have another novel discovery now."

"Not training you in the necro system doesn’t mean we can’t strengthen your Soul Power."

"Soul Power seems to be related to comprehension. If Mr. Husky is to fuse with the Absolute Comprehension Attribute later, it’s obvious that the stronger the Power of the Soul, the better the fusion effect will be, and the higher the potential for Evolution."

"And for you, King of Sudden Death, the souls of most lifeforms are similar in shape to their physical bodies. But yours is a bit different. Do you know what I’m thinking?"

Both the King of Sudden Death and Mr. Husky showed puzzled expressions.

"Your cultivation path has always been aimed towards the Dragon Clan, aiming to change ’species’. Your body and spirit have transformed, often consuming dragon cuisine which has replaced much of your Dragon Blood, and your mental intimidation has also transformed into Dragon Might."

"But, from beginning to end, we never considered cultivating your soul as well."

"A complete dragon is not just about the physical body and spirit being of a dragon, but the soul should also be that of a dragon, right?"

"Perhaps, during a period of evolution, your soul might gradually become dragon-like due to the evolution. But what if, prior to evolution, we cultivate your soul form towards a dragon shape, would that make the evolution result even more perfect?"

"Maybe the reason Beast Trainers on Blue Star have been unable to cultivate dragons is that they’ve overlooked the cultivation of the dragon soul, focusing solely on the Bloodline and spirit."

"Of course, it’s also related to the fact that Blue Star lacks stable methods for Soul Reinforcement and cultivation. If there was a Dragon Soul Trait Crystal, maybe it could corroborate this theory, but unfortunately, there isn’t one."

Upon hearing Lu Ran’s words, the King of Sudden Death’s brain began to race, and beside it, Mr. Husky gave it a pat.

"Woof!"

It was telling the King of Sudden Death not to worry if it couldn’t wrap its head around it, to leave the thinking to Boss Lu, their external brain. All they had to do was wait for the research results.

"Roar!" The King of Sudden Death nodded, making sense indeed.

At this moment, Lu Ran was indeed excited.

He felt that he’d discovered something incredible.

The soul is related to comprehension!

The lifeforms transformed into Sub-Dragons through resources are changed in blood and spirit, but the shape of their souls doesn’t adjust much! This may impact the process of becoming a dragon.

At this moment, Lu Ran was somewhat glad that he discovered these two pieces of information so early.

Otherwise, after Mr. Husky and the King of Sudden Death evolved, they might have been strong, but definitely not a perfect Evolution.

If he could strengthen their souls before their next stage of Evolution, it should make the Evolution more perfect.

"But the only known method to enhance the soul is by Devouring Souls, souls of different lifeforms, which are different types of necro system resources..."
