Douluo Continent: The Ice Dragon King Martial Soul, Ma Xiaotao is Addicted

Chapter 55 Can you let me go home after taking the photos?
"I knew it, the materials would be hard to find..." Ye Chen's face darkened when he saw this.

Level 10 is not the limit; there are also levels 11 and 12, but the materials required for these levels are simply not available in this world.

Ye Chen continued his search and quickly found the materials and blueprints for the Level 9 Soul Guidance Cannon:
Level 9 Soul-Guided Cannonball

[Core Materials: Blazing Crystal Core, Essence of a Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Emerald Tree or Life Essence of 3 Soul Saints, Earthfire Rock Core...]

[Effect: Unleashes a massive burst of energy, causing indiscriminate and devastating damage.]

……

"Damn, no wonder the Level 9 Soul Guidance Cannon is so precious, it even requires a sacrifice..."

Ye Chen was shocked when he saw this scene.

This must be the work of an evil spirit master.

The Sun Moon Empire originally did not have level nine soul-guided cannons, but it acquired them after cooperating with the Holy Spirit Cult.

Of course, human lives are not essential, but they are cost-effective.

If materials are insufficient, human lives will suffice. In this fantasy world, sacrifice can accomplish many things and can also replace many materials.

A true level nine soul-guided cannon is definitely unnecessary.

However, when materials are extremely scarce, the cost-effectiveness of human lives becomes very high...

Of course, none of these are things that Ye Chen can currently access.

Even if he had the blueprints, he couldn't make it.

Ye Chen decided to focus his attention on short-term gains and began searching for level-one soul tools.

Soon, Ye Chen saw one that was useful:

[Light Capture Camera: Captures images and generates photos using custom paper.]

[Materials: First-grade rare metals, silica...]

【drawing:……】

……

……

"This looks good, it doesn't seem too difficult~"

The moment Ye Chen saw the design drawing, his eyes lit up.

Because only Soul Masters can create Soul Tools, and Soul Masters focus on combat.

Therefore, this type of life-oriented soul tool is extremely rare in the three great empires. Many of them are smuggled from the Sun Moon Empire, and their value has increased several hundred times.

Ye Chen didn't know if the Sun Moon Empire had such a thing, but he was determined to make one.

A good life needs to be recorded.

I have a camera, and I take some beautiful photos whenever I feel like it.

They won't let them go home after filming... Hehehe...

Photography is great, photography hits the mark.

In their past lives, photographers with even a little bit of good looks never lacked suitors. If they were rich, sweet-talking, and had high emotional intelligence, even if they weren't particularly good-looking, they still wouldn't lack suitors.

One shot and you can have sex.

In the real world, it's pretty much the same.

……

Ye Chen glanced at the materials around him and began making the product without saying a word.

Since it was only a level one soul tool, there were plenty of materials available, so Ye Chen only needed to inscribe the core magic array.

Although Ye Chen is currently only a beginner-level Soul Master, he has already mastered the technique of inscribing core arrays. With the complete blueprints, making a level one Soul Tool is not difficult at all.

With a slight thought, Ye Chen's mind was completely imprinted with the blueprints for the [Flowing Light and Shadow Capture Box], as if he had drawn them countless times.

Ye Chen had a premonition that making this first-level soul tool himself might be countless times simpler than copying it.

Because copying is learning from scratch, while creating the [Flowing Light Capture Box] is something he has all the knowledge for, only lacking one practice session.

Without saying a word, Ye Chen took a core made of a first-level rare metal from the side, then took an ordinary carving knife and began to inscribe it.

Although the level one soul guidance array was countless times more complex than the ones Ye Chen had drawn before, Ye Chen mastered it with ease, as if he had practiced it countless times...

"Kacha——"

A crisp sound rang out; the magic array shattered, and the inscription failed. Ye Chen: ...

"Alright, it's still quite difficult..." Ye Chen twitched the corner of his mouth, then took out another level-one metal core and re-engraved it.

……

……

Finally, half an hour later.

Ye Chen slowly put down the carving knife, then poured his soul power into the core magic array in his hand.

"Om-"

The core array instantly lit up with a faint silver light, indicating that the core laws were operating completely and had been successfully inscribed.

"It took me three tries to succeed, and it took me half an hour. I'm still not very skilled at it the first time." Ye Chen sighed, feeling that things weren't going well.

Of course, if Xianlin'er knew this, she would probably grit her teeth in anger.

After all, it took Xian Lin'er a full three months to go from beginner to inscribing a level one soul guide core array...

Ye Chen finished in less than half an hour.

Although the soul tool is not yet completed, Ye Chen is already a first-level soul master.

As for the outer shell of the soul tool, it was very simple; Ye Chen only needed to follow the blueprints to build it.

However, although Ye Chen had the blueprints, he had never studied forging...

"Forget it, let's wait for Xianlin'er to come back and let her teach me herself..."

Ye Chen thought secretly in his heart.

As for how to explain the brand-new core magic array, Ye Chen was not worried.

The magic array of the [Flowing Light Capture Box] is not particularly profound; it is composed entirely of the most basic core magic arrays.

There are more than ninety basic core principles, and their permutations and combinations can form countless entirely new core principles.

Only Ye Chen knew that the purpose of the brand-new core array was to "record images".

To others, it was just a useless, haphazardly pieced-together primary array.

Before the complete form is created, no one knows its effects.

Ye Chen will then read some books, supplement his knowledge a little, and then create the [Flowing Light and Shadow Capture Box].

Others will simply attribute everything to his invincible talent.

They would not doubt that he possessed some extraordinary inheritance of soul tools.

……

at the same time.

Poseidon Pavilion.

The group of elders had just finished their meeting and hadn't even left Seagod Island when Xian Lin'er called them back.

"Lin'er, what's so important that you called us old folks here?" Old Song gave Xian Lin'er a reproachful look.

My daughter is so grown up, yet she still causes me so much trouble.

The other senior members, including Yan Shaozhe and Cai Meier, all came, but Mu En didn't. He must have gone to his dormitory in the outer courtyard to relax. Xian Lin'er was too embarrassed to call Mu En over.

But that's about enough people.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Xian Lin'er didn't keep them in suspense and said with some joy, "Elders, I have some good news to tell you. I just took Ye Chen to the Soul Guidance Device and gave him a casual test. I didn't expect that Ye Chen would have such high talent in the Soul Guidance System, even stronger than Fan Yu!"

"What! Lin'er, you took Xiao Chen to the Soul Guidance Department? Why didn't you tell me?"

Yan Shaozhe immediately flew into a rage upon hearing this.

Good heavens, isn't this blatant poaching? This is outrageous!
"Hmph, I'm taking my disciple to the Soul Guidance Department for the test. What do I have to say to you?"

Xian Lin'er snorted softly and looked at Yan Shaozhe with a hint of smugness.

Clearly, she felt inexplicably pleased to see Yan Shaozhe get his comeuppance.

Women are very vengeful; she can hold a grudge for a lifetime about Yan Shaozhe and Cai Meier's affair!

"What...what, your disciple???" Yan Shaozhe's mind went blank, and he immediately had a bad feeling.
