Chapter 33 - Chapter 33: A Small Measure of Success

Bonus Chapter!

---

The Zhuge Godly Crossbow was extremely domineering, specializing in breaking through soul power defenses. A soul master below level forty would have almost no chance of survival if hit head-on.

In the original work, Tang San used the Zhuge Godly Crossbow to kill a two-thousand-year-old Man-Faced Demon Spider. The Shrek Seven Devils, relying on the Zhuge Godly Crossbow, even annihilated the entire Ferocious God Team.

Lu Feng gently caressed the Zhuge Godly Crossbow, feeling the smooth texture of the box, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

No one ever complained about having too many trump cards.

"However, my research on hidden weapons ends here," Lu Feng sighed and put the Zhuge Godly Crossbow into his soul tool.

The crafting of hidden weapons had extremely high requirements for forging techniques and materials.

To create powerful hidden weapons like the Peacock Plume and the Buddha's Fury Tang Lotus, one needed Mysterious Iron.

In the original work, in order to successfully forge hidden weapons like the Pear Blossom Rain Needle and the Buddha's Fury Tang Lotus, the Godly Craftsman Lou Gao even threw himself into the furnace, using his own blood and qi to unlock the sharpness of the Deep Sea Sunken Silver.

Lu Feng respected everyone with a dream, but he had no intention of 'sacrificing himself for the sword'.

Just preparing the materials for this one Zhuge Godly Crossbow of Lu Feng's had taken Tang San two months. Then, Lu Feng had personally forged and assembled it, which took another month, before it was finally completed.

Thanks again to my brother-in-arms for his heartfelt dedication!

Among the Tang Sect martial arts, what Lu Feng cared about most were the [Mysterious Heaven Skill] and the [Purple Demon Eye].

Next were the knowledge of immortal herbs and the concoction of poisons.

As for the [Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track] and the [Mysterious Jade Hand], Lu Feng only regarded them as auxiliary martial arts.

With a thought, Lu Feng scanned another corner of his soul tool space and saw several wooden barrels.

Black powder!

This was currently Lu Feng's most lethal weapon, bar none.

That Green Wood Python from before had a close encounter with the black powder and then passed away very peacefully.

At Lu Feng's graduation ceremony, the headmaster of Nuoding Academy, on a whim, demonstrated his fourth soul skill to the students, showing off in front of everyone.

Based on the marks of destruction on the field, Lu Feng deduced that the power of the black powder was definitely greater than the soul skill of an ordinary Soul Ancestor, and might even be enough to kill a Soul King-level powerhouse.

"However, the use of gunpowder is too restrictive; it has to be set up as an ambush in advance," Lu Feng sighed, and his consciousness withdrew from the soul tool space.

Transmigrating to another world, especially to a place like the Douluo Continent, which was known as the 'floor of the fantasy genre', Lu Feng also wanted to follow a 'nuclear peace' path like some other transmigrators.

But, in his previous life, Lu Feng was just an ordinary undergraduate.

Build a nuke?

E=mc²

Alright, let's begin!

"Therefore, soul power cultivation is my foundation!"

With a thought from Lu Feng, a pair of [Brass Knuckles] was fitted onto his hands.

Immediately after, lights flashed in the carriage, and one martial soul after another appeared in succession.

Yellow quality [Black Iron Staff]

Yellow quality [Five-Colored Flower]

Purple quality [Luo Wupao]

The [Five-Colored Flower] was a martial soul that Lu Feng had fleeced from Teacher Mo. Teacher Mo was the teacher specifically in charge of managing the work-study students, the one who had given Tang San a blanket in the original work.

The [Five-Colored Flower] was a very powerful support-type martial soul. With each soul ring obtained, it would gain a percentage-based amplification soul skill.

If not for the fact that the amplification ratio could not be increased a second time, the [Five-Colored Flower] could probably be compared to the [Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda].

Of course, Teacher Mo's martial soul was only of white quality. In order to upgrade the [Five-Colored Flower], Lu Feng had dismantled both the [Blue Silver Grass] and the [Swift Wind Bird] martial souls.

If one dismantled a martial soul that had already been synthesized, one could only obtain half of the 'light points', which was five.

After throwing in ten yellow martial soul light points, the [Five-Colored Flower] was upgraded from white quality to yellow quality.

Of course, the effect was also very satisfactory.

[Five-Colored Flower] First Soul Skill: Increases the target soul master's strength by 5% and provides an additional 5% vitality recovery.

Just looking at the effect of the first soul skill, it was already a bit stronger than most support-type martial souls.

"However, the biggest gain in these two years has been this martial soul."

A dark light flashed, and a small black hammer appeared in Lu Feng's right hand. The moment the small hammer appeared, the atmosphere in the carriage immediately became oppressive.

"Whoa~" The coachman pulled on the reins, trying to calm the frantic horses.

"Lord Soul Master, the horses have suddenly been spooked for some reason. Please forgive me, my lord," the coachman's words came from outside the carriage.

"Mm, I know."

Lu Feng's soul power surged, and he put away the [Clear Sky Hammer] martial soul.

As expected of the world's number one tool martial soul. With only one soul ring attached, it already has such a deterrent force! I wonder what the style of the contemporary 'Clear Sky Douluo', Tang Hao, was like in his prime.

Lu Feng shook his head. Recalling the scruffy blacksmith in Holy Spirit Village, he just couldn't associate him with a Titled Douluo.

It was worth it to supervise Tang San's forging every day for a good half a year.

Unfortunately, Tang San's current Blue Silver Grass martial soul is just ordinary Blue Silver Grass, not the Blue Silver Emperor. It seems I can only continue my 'brother-in-arms' relationship with Tang San in a few years.

"As for skills..."

Lu Feng's soul power surged, and his figure teleported to the top of the carriage.

Looking into the distance, the sun shone on the vast grassland. A gentle breeze blew, creating a wave of emerald green grass.

Black quality [Teleportation]!

This skill could be called a divine skill. No matter what world, time and space were the supreme attributes.

Although Lu Feng also found it strange, Xiao Wu's original body was just a Soft Bone Rabbit, so why would it produce such a broken soul bone skill?

Could it be that she was a special rabbit?

Back then, when Lu Feng was hunting for his first soul ring, if he didn't have this soul skill, he probably would have had to pay a much higher price.

When Lu Feng was at level ten, using teleportation four or five times would exhaust his soul power. But now, with his soul power close to level twenty, he could use it more than ten times, and the movement distance had also increased to twenty meters!

However, there was an interval between uses. If he forced himself to use it consecutively, it would damage his meridians, and in serious cases, it could even cause his cultivation to regress.

Of course, Xiao Wu's other soul bone skill was also in Lu Feng's possession.

Black quality [Invincible Golden Body]!

For three seconds, it granted immunity to all physical attacks below the God level, while also doubling strength. For every ten levels the user's soul power increased, the duration of the golden body and the strength enhancement would both increase by one second.

The consumption of the [Invincible Golden Body] was much greater, almost twice that of [Teleportation].

Unless it was a last resort, Lu Feng would not expose these two skills of his.

Looking at his full fragment repository and feeling the soul power in his body that was infinitely close to level twenty, Lu Feng smiled knowingly. "I have been walking on thin ice for the past two years, but now I can say I have achieved a small measure of success!"

Lu Feng brought his right index and middle fingers together, and an invisible aura shot into the horse's body.

Black quality [Light Attribute]!

Instantly, a bright light flashed in the horse's eyes, and its frantic emotions were immediately soothed.

"You beast, you're finally willing to settle down," the coachman wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a chiding smile.

If he had angered the Lord Soul Master because the horse was spooked, then this trip would have been a great loss for him.

"My lord, the horse has been calmed down. Let's continue... Huh! My lord, how did you get on top of the carriage?" the coachman asked, puzzled, looking at Lu Feng sitting on top of the carriage.

"Don't mind me, just keep driving."

"Alright! Giddy-up!"

"My lord, at our current speed, we'll be able to see the Star Dou Great Forest in another day."
