Star Dou Great Forest, obtain the 5th ring.
Chapter 31 Starry Sky Forest, Obtain the Fifth Ring (2)
However, if Stardust Dragonlings want to evolve further, they can no longer follow the path of a single attribute.
Because the wind element power has already been maximized.
After the Wind Whelp evolves into the Stardust Whelp, it naturally generates extremely weak stellar and divine power.
The next step is to increase the strength of these two forces.
The limit of energy refers not only to the upper limit, but also to the lower limit.
After the Wind Hatchling Dragon evolves into the Stardust Dragon, the strength of these two inherent powers represents the lower limit of the Stardust Dragon Martial Soul's power in these two aspects.
From another perspective, this probably means that raising these two aspects of power to the lower limit of "Starbone Dragon" would allow the Martial Soul to evolve.
This leads to another conjecture, a more realistic one.
Given You Chen's personality, he certainly wouldn't stop there.
This led to the discovery of the "ratio of energy".
While enhancing the three fundamental attributes, You Chen discovered subtle differences in the state of his martial soul during the process.
After a long period of research and observation, he discovered three states of martial spirit, or rather, the origin of martial spirit.
"Active state", "relatively stable state", "stagnant state".
To put it simply, when the power distribution of a martial soul approaches a certain proportion that is conducive to evolution, that is, when the "degree of evolution" is relatively high, the origin of the martial soul will be relatively active.
Conversely, when the "degree of evolution" represented by this ratio is roughly the same as the current one, the origin of the martial soul will be relatively stable.
When the power distribution of a martial soul deviates completely from the proportion conducive to evolution, the origin of the martial soul will become inert, and even the speed of soul power circulation will decrease.
In other words, there is always a certain ratio that represents the highest level of evolution and is most conducive to the evolution and development of the martial soul.
From these two "key points," You Chen drew two conclusions about how to evolve his martial soul as much as possible.
First, once a power reaches its maximum potential, it receives less attention, and allocating any resources to it would be a waste. Conversely, since the lower limit is uncertain, we should raise the energy of lower-level attributes as much as possible.
Second, we should try to make the ratio of the three energy levels as close as possible to the "perfect evolution ratio".
Now that the Stardust Dragon has evolved into the Starbone Dragon, it has basically verified Youchen's conclusions.
It seems that the difficulty of evolving the Stardust Dragon series of martial souls gradually increases. The evolution of the Wind Hatchling only requires the power of a single element to reach its limit, while the Stardust Young Dragon shows no signs of evolution even if the power of a single element reaches its limit.
It was only after You Chen completed the evolution by replenishing the energy levels of the Holy and Stellar powers.
As his martial soul evolved once again, You Chen returned to this previous step.
This time, however, he doesn't have to go through the long research process all over again.
As a byproduct of his quest for "perfect proportions," he developed a minor skill related to this using the "Distraction Refining Soul Technique."
Unlike the Flame Lord, the Starbone Dragon does not have an innate and strong control over energy. Even with You Chen's skill, he cannot use a single type of power.
However, the tendency to use the power of one particular element is not a problem. It's just that in the process, the other two elements will naturally be mobilized, resulting in a significant waste of soul power.
This kind of operation has little practical value, but it does have some merit in measurement.
You Chen, who can divide his mind into a maximum of four hearts, uses three hearts to mobilize the power of the three elements, and the last heart to perceive the state of his martial soul.
This is equivalent to three traction ropes pulling the martial spirit in three directions, making it easy to distinguish the strength and the impact on the martial spirit.
At least with You Chen's abilities, the large amount of information generated in this process is enough for him to perform calculations.
It's equivalent to directly applying the formula.
Over the years, it has become purely a routine procedure.
Yes, this is the confidence that assembly line work brings to You Chen!
Then, You Chen quickly discovered that his current level of divine power had actually reached the peak of the Starbone Dragon, which is the so-called "limit".
The current order of strength among the three powers is: Divine > Wind > Star.
However, although there are differences between them, they are both rated as "strong performance" with a score of 3, and there is no qualitative difference.
Based on existing information, it can be inferred that the Stardust Dragon's power is primarily wind and star-based, with divine power as a secondary element. Only by raising both the Stardust Dragon's wind and star-based powers to a top-tier performance rating of 4 can it reach its "limit."
Through these days of "measurement," You Chen has roughly deduced the "perfect energy ratio" of the Stardust Dragon.
Wind: Stars: Sacred; the most likely outcomes are one of the following:
2:2:1;3:2:1;3:3:2;5:4:3……
Then there's only one answer!
"Find your target based on this list. The age should be at least 20,000 years, and preferably no more than 25,000 years."
You Chen gave his answer and handed over a drawing.
Diwan took it; it contained sketches of more than a dozen soul beasts and methods for determining their approximate age.
Devan vaguely remembered many of these spirit beasts, as several wind-type spirit beasts that he had once considered as targets were among them.
As Diwan took notes, he frowned slightly and asked, "Twenty-five thousand years? Are you sure? Although I know that after you discovered the true function of whale glue, the optimal age for Soul Masters has generally reached the level of the next ring. But if I remember correctly, before that, the optimal age for the sixth ring was only twenty thousand years, right? Even if most of those weren't Soul Beasts with top-tier bloodlines like the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, twenty-five thousand years is still dangerous enough."
You Chen simply replied calmly, "When have you ever seen me do anything I wasn't sure about?"
Devan spread his free hand: "What new research are you up to now? Never mind, don't blame me if it explodes while absorbing a spirit ring."
As soon as he finished speaking, Devan's third purple spirit ring suddenly lit up.
Third Soul Skill: Eagle Vision!
Devan's eyes suddenly turned gold, radiating the aura of a top predator.
Even while maintaining supersonic flight, the condition of the many soul beasts below could not escape his eyes.
Having a Soul Master who leans towards agility-based attacks to guide you in soul hunting is incredibly satisfying.
Eagle King's six-dimensional rating:
[Martial Soul]: Eagle King (Top-tier Martial Soul)
[Power]: 4 (Top Performance)
Speed: 4.5 (Near-super performance)
[Strength and Toughness]: 3 (Relatively Strong Performance)
[Battery Life]: 4 (Top Performance)
[Energy]: 4 (Top-tier wind-type energy, enhanced by the soul power quality of a normal top-tier martial soul)
[Special Ability]: 2 (Foresight, able to foresee the brief future that may cause serious injury or death, a general-purpose ability)
Total Score: 19.5 (+2)
The reason why Devan is said to be a Soul Master who leans towards agility-based attacks is because this guy is not only fast, but also has considerable strength and endurance, making him a Soul Master who can be considered a power-based attacker.
In fact, this is the case for most high-level Soul Masters. Except for a very few exceptions, once their Martial Soul strength and Soul Power level increase, their overall qualities will not be too bad. Unless they face a super Martial Soul, there is basically no possibility of being defeated by someone of a higher level.
Of course, having no weaknesses is one thing, having multiple strengths and being a versatile person is another.
You Chen believes that since they are both "eagles" and both are Contra, Diwan can be the "Eagle King" while Flander can only be the "Flying Horn," and he deserves great credit for this.
Hmm, let me put my hands on my hips for a bit.
