Douluo Continent: When Huo Yuhao Becomes the Lord of the End

Chapter 147 Sorting Out the Gains, Strength Soars

Huo Yuhao's body slowly sank into the spring water at the junction of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Wells.

The powerful energies of the frigid icy spring and the scorching hot spring quickly oppressed his body.

The ice and fire energies gradually formed a vortex and began to enter Huo Yuhao's body. His skin kept cracking and reforming, and his bones made a crisp sound like metal colliding.

This change was even more intense than the Golden Essence. While Huo Yuhao felt the pain, he also felt that this move was really necessary. Now his flesh and blood were constantly being reorganized between destruction and rebirth.

To his surprise, the energy of the Life Gold began to guide these ice and fire energies into his body. The blazing glue and that part of the Xuanbing essence resonated with the power of the immortal herbs and the spring water in his body. His pores stopped 'pooping,' but his blood continued to flow out, condensing into crystal particles in the spring water.

The reason it was unexpected was that Huo Yuhao's consciousness realized that, in addition to the anticipated Ultimate Flame being engraved on the Bell of the End, the life attribute was also beginning to appear on the Bell of the End.

But there was obviously no time to worry about that now. Huo Yuhao focused all his attention on absorbing the extreme cold and extreme heat attributes and using them as catalysts to refine the blazing glue and the essence of the mysterious ice.

As he expected, the medicinal effects of the Xuanbing Essence were limited; the extreme ice-attribute energy within his own body was already more than sufficient to cope with the blazing glue and the intense yang energy.

Huo Yuhao attached the jade scorpion tail to his body. The dazzling green scorpion tail began to actively guide the energy of the Xuanbing Essence and the Extreme Cold Yin Spring into it, thereby absorbing the energy and causing his lifespan to continuously increase.

The entire surface of the external soul bone became even more crystal clear, and the diamond facets covering the surface constantly reflected a dangerous, cold light.

To Huo Yuhao's surprise, the jade scorpion tail, which originally contained the ultimate ice, was constantly evolving into ice and fire patterns during this period.

It is foreseeable that once he has absorbed the ice and fire energy and refined the medicinal power, the Emerald Scorpion Tail will definitely be able to evolve again and release the ultimate fire and ultimate ice attributes at the same time.

Extreme attributes are already highly toxic to Soul Masters with normal attributes. If the two are combined and released through the Scorpion Tail, and then linked with the Ice Explosion Technique, it would be a nightmare for anyone.

The entire process lasted very short. After several cycles of flesh and blood destruction and rebirth, Huo Yuhao was finally able to remain unaffected by the energy of the Ice and Fire Spring. Even the medicinal power of the Blazing Glue and the Essence of Profound Ice was mostly refined.

Above the second martial soul, there are three ultimate attributes: fire, ice, and metal. These should never appear on any martial soul, yet they have achieved a strange balance on the Bell of the End.

It seems that these three extreme attributes do not hinder the Bell of the End in the slightest; this is not the limit of this martial soul.

The other medicinal properties were sealed within the external soul bone, the jade scorpion tail, and were slowly refined later. This external soul bone, which originated from the Ice Emperor, could now not only simultaneously possess the ultimate fire attribute, but its age had also grown to the level of 500,000 years thanks to the energy of ice and fire and the medicinal properties.

The soul bone's appearance is not only more magnificent, but its surface is also covered with a layer of golden scales that even Huo Yuhao cannot understand. There is an extreme metal attribute flowing inside, which makes the soul bone's strength reach a new level.

As Huo Yuhao gradually regained consciousness in the spring, his eyes shifted between ice blue and crimson, but quickly returned to normal, maintaining their original ice blue color.

His skin looked brand new, with a pale golden sheen.

Now he no longer needed to fear the violent energy of the Extreme Cold Silver Spring and the Blazing Yang Spring, and wanted to go down to check on Gu Yuena's condition, but after thinking about it, he gave up.

The situation below must have entered a critical stage now, so it's best not to get involved. If something like what happened to Xiao Huohuo happens, and you suddenly get caught up in it, that wouldn't be good.

thump!!
Emerging from the Yin-Yang Well, Huo Yuhao was completely naked, his storage rings still with his teacher. For a moment, he truly became an exhibitionist.

Du Busi, who had been guarding the side, glanced down when he saw his disciple come out and said the same words as Kong Deming.

"Not bad, you have a lot of capital, but you're still a bit lacking compared to me."

(Kong Deming: What a load of bull!)
After changing his clothes, Huo Yuhao ignored his teacher's insecure boasting and breathed a sigh of relief; the gains he had made this time were enormous. He also began to calculate the benefits he had received.

He packed up all the immortal herbs from the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire and stored them all in the Starlight Ring, along with some of the Extreme Cold Silver Spring and the Blazing Yang Spring.

This time, he mainly consumed the essence produced by those immortal herbs. By analogy, he consumed four kinds of immortal herbs: the Dew of Longing for Autumn Water, the Miraculous Chrysanthemum of Heaven, the Fiery Apricot, and the Eight-Cornered Mysterious Ice Grass.

However, it is only the essence of the immortal herbs accumulated over ten thousand years. The immortal herbs themselves have not been consumed and their consciousness has been erased. Even if he absorbs their soul rings and soul bones later, he can still use these immortal herbs to refine pills and medicines, relying on the medicine manuals left by the little scoundrel and the legacy of those ancestors.

His mental strength has increased dramatically, laying a solid foundation for future breakthroughs. His physical attributes have improved several times over, making him immune to all poisons, able to withstand ice and fire, and indestructible. He is now capable of absorbing soul rings of the 100,000-year level.

The second martial soul is inscribed with two other ultimate attributes: ultimate fire and ultimate metal. At the same time, the special toxin produced by the fusion of ice and fire is also inscribed on the Bell of the End. There is also the life attribute, but the latter two have not reached the ultimate level.

The external soul bone, the Emerald Scorpion Tail, has evolved to nearly 500,000 years old. It not only integrates the dual extreme attributes of ice and fire, but also allows the ultimate metal to circulate within it, significantly enhancing the strength of the soul bone.

Furthermore, the potential of his original martial soul has been stimulated once again, and he is infinitely close to a new awakening, namely the gold-level awakening. Now, he only needs an opportunity, an opportunity to feel the pressure.

His soul power level remained at level 50 because he hadn't added any soul rings. Huo Yuhao guessed that once he added a 100,000-year-level soul ring to his fifth soul ring slot, his soul power would immediately reach level 60.

That's all for now. After obtaining his fifth spirit ring and reaching level 60, he needs some time to process his progress and will not add a sixth spirit ring for the time being.

Firstly, he needed to properly cultivate the secret techniques of his main body so that his main body's martial soul, the Spirit Eye, could achieve a second awakening at the gold level. Secondly, he needed to integrate this significant improvement into himself and familiarize himself with the enhanced soul skills and attribute abilities he had gained.

Finally, and most importantly, it's because 100,000-year-old spirit beasts with spiritual attributes are extremely rare.

His sixth spirit ring is the 100,000-year-old Evil Eye. This might allow him to create a time difference, letting his level 99 Limit Douluo teacher distract the Evil Eye Tyrant, and then cooperate in the hunt.

But considering that it could only be done once, and that it would surely enrage the Evil Eye Tyrant, the second most ferocious beast on the continent, trying to do it twice in a row would be extremely difficult, or even impossible.

"Teacher, I'd like to take a few days off."

After this period of 'torture,' the benefits were indeed astonishing, but he also felt extremely tired, not mentally, but physically.

After traversing the Spring of Ice and Fire, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that his body is now formed through the fusion of the Gold of Life and the [Heavenly Movement].

The remaining medicinal effects also need to be digested.
"Alright, but that girl..." Poisonous Undying's gaze turned to the spot where the spring water met.

Huo Yuhao laughed and said, "Let's stay here for the next while, teacher, and wait for her to come out before we head back to the Body Sect."

He also wanted to use the Heart of Qiluo to absorb the secret technique through his own spirituality, and at the same time, use the abundant spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye to absorb the toxins of the Seven Absolute Flowers of Azure Phosphorus outside.

Since the Bell of the End is already inscribed with the poison attribute, we might as well go all out and upgrade it to its ultimate level.

In this way, the external soul bone, the Jade Scorpion Tail, will be even more terrifying, with four extreme attributes, as well as invincible defense penetration and irresistible extreme poison. Tsk tsk tsk!

If things proceed as planned, then this time we've actually gained three more ultimate attributes. Adding to the already existing ultimate ice, we now have ice, fire, metal, and poison, plus the life attribute whose ultimate form we don't yet know how to achieve. This is unprecedented, and it's unlikely anyone will ever surpass it.

Poison Undying nodded in agreement. After all, he had many questions that his disciple needed to answer. He had been struggling to figure them out for a while and was almost driven crazy by the frustration.
