Douluo: Dragon King Huo Yuhao Lives Ten Thousand Years Later

Chapter 115 Let's leave the Golden Dragon King's tombstone here.
In Mu Ye's perception, being within Huo Yuhao's domain, his entire body was shrouded in an aura of death, making it difficult to exert his full strength. Without the protection of soul power and spiritual power, he even had a premonition that his life force and soul would be stripped away.

Moreover, stripping away his life force and soul is probably not the end; these gray mists seem to want to transform him into another life form.

"Isn't this the ability of an evil spirit master?"

Looking at Huo Yuhao, who was quietly meditating with his eyes closed, Mu Ye was speechless for a moment.

If it weren't for the fact that evil martial spirits could also move freely in this era, he would have reminded Huo Yuhao not to use this domain in future battles.

While Mu Ye was lost in thought, Huo Yuhao was experiencing the various changes brought about by his second awakening.

Having been an undead creature for ten thousand years, he naturally possessed the essence of the undead and the corresponding understanding of its laws. However, before his rebirth, those essences were suppressed within his body by him and Elder Yi, without affecting his two martial souls.

Now, thanks to the secret techniques of the Body Sect, it has been mobilized in the form of innate energy to assist him in his second awakening.

However, although the second awakening of the Spirit Eye was completed, the subsequent changes were beyond Huo Yuhao's expectations.

Perhaps due to the influence of the second awakening method, he obtained a domain that would not have been possible otherwise. Similar to the Killing God Domain, his martial soul attributes remained unchanged, but this domain was directly engraved on his Spirit Eye martial soul during his second awakening.

"The realm of rebirth in the underworld?"

This is the field that Huo Yuhao thought of that is closest to the essence of this field.

Life within the domain will be constantly eroded by the gray death fog, consuming soul power and spiritual power until death. When the soul and life force are completely devoured by the death fog, they will become undead creatures under his control, existing within the domain and summoned at his will.

The devoured souls and life force can be transformed into spiritual power and soul power to feed back to him, enhancing himself and also increasing the strength of the undead creatures within the domain.

It features subordinates, suppression, and absorption—very similar to the Netherworld Rebirth Domain. It's a standard, almost perfect, setup for an evil soul master, and it's also a domain that can be improved upon… making it top-tier even within the domain category.

This seems to be the best area-of-effect skill for dealing with the Abyss. Will the other dimension intervene?
Otherwise, how could it be so similar to that person's domain...?

"This field is somewhat like a combination of various necromancy spells. Withering, undead transformation, life drain, and so on can be seen as the crystallization of your own understanding of necromancy and the laws of death."

When Elder Yi of the Sea of ​​Spirit heard Huo Yuhao share his gains, he pondered for a moment and smiled, "It's not surprising. If you hadn't suppressed those undead origins, Yuhao, you could have become the first true Three-Life Martial Soul owner in history."

"But even if you suppress that source, it still exists. Now, through the second awakening of innate energy, you are essentially merging the unawakened necromantic martial soul source into the Spirit Eye, allowing it to evolve and gain a portion of its power."

With Huo Yuhao's accumulated foundation over ten thousand years, he could have given birth to three martial souls if he really wanted to: Spirit Eye, Ice Emperor, and Undead. However, Huo Yuhao chose to leave the origin of the Undead martial soul behind and not awaken it.

After all, Huo Yuhao doesn't need a martial soul to use necromancy, so having an extra necromancy martial soul wouldn't be very useful. It's better to keep it as a foundation for sublimating his martial soul.

This second awakening, in a sense, is the fusion of the two martial souls, with the Spirit Eye martial soul devouring the origin of the other martial soul to advance. That's why a domain was added on the basis of the second awakening of the main martial soul.

"However, this kind of devouring ability shouldn't be used too often except when facing enemies like those in the Abyss. Don't lose sight of your true nature," Electrox cautioned.

Huo Yuhao laughed and said, "If you don't think it's good enough, I certainly won't embarrass you."

Of course, Elder Yi possesses life-absorbing abilities. Once one reaches a certain level in necromancy, one can understand some things by analogy. The power that a martial soul like the Necromancer Saint God can contain is limited, far from being all the abilities Elder Yi has mastered.

Beside her, Tianmeng asked with interest, "Speaking of which, what should we call this domain? The Domain of the Dead? The Domain of the Grim Reaper?"

Huo Yuhao thought for a moment and said, "Let's call it Hades Domain." After all, it's too similar to that person's domain, so let's just borrow his title. Maybe we can use this domain to borrow his identity in the future.

That being said, it seems like he has quite a few aliases available for him.

Dragon God, Sea God, Hades... he seems to be able to try pretending to be any of them.

……

After a moment of reflection, Huo Yuhao thought of Mu Ye outside who was being eroded by his domain, so he quickly withdrew his domain and opened his eyes.

Makino, who had been watching him closely, quickly walked up. He felt that the boy's appearance seemed to have changed, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He looked directly into the boy's gray eyes and suddenly stopped walking.

—What eyes those were!

His once lively eyes had turned a deep gray, and there seemed to be a chaotic flow in the depths of his pupils. With just an unconscious glance, Mu Ye felt his soul being completely pierced and about to be drawn into it...

Makino took a deep breath, stopped approaching, and asked with intense gaze, "Besides the domain, are there any other significant changes?"

"Have."

Huo Yuhao smiled and nodded. Three purple soul rings appeared around him. Under his control, his spiritual sea began to surge. The suppressed aura spread outward from him. A phantom vertical eye appeared behind him, and his aura suddenly increased.

Mu Ye's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but laugh. "Good, I thought your second awakening was a non-original martial soul type, but I didn't expect it to be both. Good, good!"

When he saw Huo Yuhao create a domain during his second awakening, he thought it was because of his special innate energy, similar to how Blue Silver Grass awakens into Blue Silver Emperor. He didn't expect that Huo Yuhao had both.

Not only did his martial soul sublimate to the level of a super martial soul, but he also gained a powerful domain and a silver-level second awakening of his original martial soul, which allowed him to temporarily unleash his power.

This is probably the biggest upgrade ever achieved by a second awakening.

Sure enough, accepting the other party's help was the greatest gain of his life!

After a moment of surprise, Mu Ye suppressed his excitement and said, "Now that the second awakening is complete, let's get some rest tonight and return to Donghai City tomorrow. Your friends are getting impatient."

"Yes, thank you for your help, teacher."

Huo Yuhao nodded, thinking of Gu Yuena, Xie Xie, and the others who had been sending him messages these past few days, and smiled slightly as he looked towards the Abyss of the Deep Sea.

Before going back, let's erect a tombstone here.

The Sea God's throne fell here, and the Golden Dragon King's tombstone was placed here. He should be very happy, right?

……

During Huo Yuhao's second awakening, Shen Yi spent a long time finally managing to rescue the two students through the program.

By this time, the assessment period had long since ended. Looking at Ning Yue, who was bowing her head and waiting for her fate, and Yu Longheng, who was expressionless, Shen Yi sighed inwardly.
