--- Chapter 444 ---

Otsutsuki Toneri meditated while people were watching him. There is a comical red bump on the right side of his head.

A black spirit ring also hovered around him, which showcased that his contracted Artificial Soul had reached 10,000 years. Yunlong didn't detect any tiger-related bloodline from it, though. 

It's a pure spirit in the shape of a tiger. 

After observing the Artificial Soul for a few more minutes, Yunlong was sure the experiment was successful. 

Of course, only one experiment wasn't enough. 

He decided to give more of Universe's Essence to the Artificial Soul and sealed it inside Otsutsuki Toneri's body, effectively making him Jinchuriki-like. 

This method also assures that the Artificial Soul would have enough energy and resources to grow until Otsutsuki Toneri reaches a Title Douluo Realm.

Now, Yunlong only has to wait and see the result. 

"The Artificial Soul has stabilized." Gu Yuena commented. "It's a huge success." 

"With this, Spirit Masters had more options in their growth, whether using Spirit Beast's contract or Artificial Soul's contract. The only problem is how to make the latter public." 

She gazed at Yunlong and questioned, "I don't think you can make multiples of Artificial Souls at once, right?" 

Yunlong smiled weakly, "Yeah." 

"At my current strength, I can only make 1,000 Artificial Souls." 

Only one thousand? Gu Yuena choked on air. 

Did you hear yourself?

You're asking for a beating!

Gu Yuena believed Yunlong could only make three or three more Artificial Souls. Such a manipulation of the Universe's Essence is unheard of. Even the Dragon God needs to use his Divinity, Blood, and Flesh to make the Nine Dragon Kings.

But Yunlong is confidently saying he could make one thousand more.

As expected, Yunlong has surpassed the Dragon God, and Gu Yuena could only take his words for granted because no one knew Yunlong's limits except himself. 

"Though, we need more data. Hayuri, do you want to be the second tester of Artificial Soul?" Yunlong glanced at the young girl with a smile.

Otsutsuki Hayuri nervously sweated and asked, "Um, would it be painful, Great Ancestor?" 

"Nii-sama screamed in pain earlier..." 

"Hayuri don't like pain." 

Yunlong chuckled, "Don't worry. It wouldn't be painful at all." 

"Toneri's excessive reaction because his soul is weak." 

"Just look at your mother, Sara. She didn't shout or scream when I awakened her Martial Soul." 

"Mm, go for it, Hayuri." Sara encouraged her daughter and pushed her toward Yunlong. 

Otsutsuki Hayuri was still nervous, and Yunlong patted her head a few times before proceeding with the Spirit Awakening Ceremony. And it's proven effective because the girl stopped shaking.

"Good girl." Yunlong praised her. 

"Don't fight back the Immortal Qi." 

Otsutsuki Hayuri nodded and left everything to Yunlong. He chuckled and began the Spirit Awakening Ceremony, energizing her body with Immortal Qi and filling it to the brim.

Just like her brother, Otsutsuki Hayuri groaned a little, but not due to pain but pleasure. 

"Mm~!" She bit her cherry lips.

"Two, one, and done." Yunlong lifted his hand off her head. 

Otsutsuki Hayuri gasped for air and blushed, "T-That wasn't so bad." 

"Right?" Yunlong chuckled slightly. "Now let's see what kind of Martial Soul you had." 

Otsutsuki Hayuri felt the newfound sensation in her chest, and her eyes turned crescent. Fallen flower petals suddenly appeared and swept over the field, making it feel like spring season. 

Everyone could even smell the extraordinary fragrance.

Ah Yin, who is more attuned to nature, blinked her blue eyes, "This is the power of nature. Not only that, it was transfixed on the Law of Season." 

"Such a nice thing." 

"How pure." Dong Chan stared at Otsutsuki Hayuri with a fond gaze. 

"My sense isn't wrong."

"This girl is a good candidate to be my priestess or apostle." 

"Just what is her Martial Soul?" On the other hand, Bibi Dong was more curious about something else. "I can feel the rough shape. It's a beast-type Bird Martial Soul." 

"A Phoenix?" 

"No, it's a Paradise Bird," Yunlong answered their confusion. "They are known for their beautiful chirp and attractiveness." 

At this very moment, Otsutsuki Hayuri's hair turned striking blonde, and feathery wings unfurled from her back. Her fair face became even fairer, and a beauty mark appeared between her eyebrows.

[Name: Nine Summers Paradise Bird]

[Type: Martial Soul(Beast-Type)]

[Grade: S+]

[Description: A Foreign Beast that was the character of Summer Season, which encompassed all essence in nature]

[Attribute: Summer(True), Natura(True), Queen(False), Wind(False)]

"Woah..." Otsutsuki Hayuri couldn't help but flap her wings in delight. 

"Sara, Madara, come here." Yunlong created three more Artificial Souls.

"I'd like to see how different Artificial Souls could develop under your care. Madara, you haven't absorbed any spirit rings with your second Martial Soul, so you can't reject me." 

"Tsk." Uchiha Madara swayed his head away. However, it would be a lie if he said he wasn't interested in Artificial Soul. 

Although Uchiha Madara's first contracted Soul Beast, Hashira, is good, his strength has stuck in the Demi-God realm for a while. 

He needs a new force to advance higher.

And this Artificial Soul is acceptable. 

Uchiha Madara didn't know that Yunlong chose him because he was the only one with Tool-type Martial Soul among the four testers. 

Yunlong could have asked Bibi Dong or Dong Chan for help, but neither could use Artificial Souls because they purely cultivated the Divine-grade Spirit Ring, which was 1,000,000 years old and above. 

After that, Yunlong personally did the contract ritual and attached the Artificial Souls to Sara, Uchiha Madara, and Otsutsuki Hayuri. 

Their reaction varies, but Uchiha Madara was the fastest to condense his new Soul Contract. And it wasn't a beast like Toneri's, but a living ball of dark flame instead.

Meanwhile, Otsutsuki Hayuri condensed a Soul Contract with a winged white rabbit, which looks cute and harmless. 

And lastly, Sara. She condensed a Soul Contract with an egg. 

Yes, a dragon egg, to be exact. 

The egg is triple the size of an adult's head with an overall purple eggshell and golden circles.

"Interesting, very interesting." Gu Yuena looked at Sara's contracted Artificial Soul. "Sara, you have the potential to be a Dragon Warrior." 

"If you want to, I can give you some advice." 

"Really?" Sara's eyes lit up. 

"Mm. Just make sure you take care of the egg well. I want to see what kind of dragon would be born later." Gu Yuena nodded in assurance. 

Sara patted her chest, "I'd do my best!"

Yunlong crouched on the ground and mumbled, "Not enough data." 

"We need one more Tool-type Martial Soul to experiment." 

"Fuck, I hope Koyuki hasn't tried to enter Semi-Virtual Realm yet and absorb a Spirit Ring there." 

"Although the Semi-Virtual Realm is 'actually' powered by Universe's Essence, it only provides a suitable spirit ring and no Artificial Soul." 

"I will be back in a second." Yunlong suddenly teleported to the Land of Snow. 

He arrived at the Kazahana Castle and saw Kazahana Koyuki midway in changing her clothes. He could see her twin mountains and snowy buttocks.

"M-Master, what are you doing here?" Kazahana Koyuki instinctively covered herself. But then, she realized why she should cover herself if her Master liked it.

With that mindset, she lowered her clothes again.

"Wear your clothes, woman. And meet me outside in a minute." Yunlong slid the door and sighed in relief because he sensed that Kazahana Koyuki was still a level 10 Spirit Trainee.

After one minute, Kazahana Koyuki came outside wearing a white-yellow kimono, and Yunlong dragged her to the Moon Castle.

"This..." Kazahana Koyuki was speechless. 

Where is she?

And what is this place?

Yunlong pulled out an Artificial Soul and said, "There is no time, Koyuki." 

"I want you to make a contract with this." 

"O-Okay." Kazahana Koyuki could only agree. 

She meditated on the ground, and Yunlong formed a contract between her and the Artificial Soul. A few moments later, a white spirit ring sprang out of existence. 

Kazahana Koyuki's Golden Luster Hand Mirror also appeared and revealed an image on the mirror. It was a copy of Kazahana Koyuki herself that seemingly gained life and clawed out of the mirror.

Yunlong blinked, "This is new." 

"A Doppelganger?" 

"On top of that, it was an exact copy that could be cultivated like a Spirit Beast." 

"What do you think, Yuena?" Yunlong grinned proudly.

Gu Yuena stared at Kazahana Koyuki's Doppelganger and said, "I don't think you had an idea what kind of thing you have created, Yunlong." 

"This thing. Artificial Soul wouldn't just change the Spirit Master's cultivation system forever. It will revolutionize an era!"
