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

Chapter 170 Narcissus Jade Skin and Bones, Thousand-Refined Golden Vine

The Snow Emperor's embryo was jointly protected by the Hall of Offering and the Hall of Bright Virtue. Now that it had been handed over to Huo Yuhao, they naturally wouldn't say anything more.

After all, these were originally soul rings and soul bones that Kong Deming had prepared for his disciples using gold soul coins.

Since Huo Yuhao was the absolute core of the Empire's first-tier training program, it was very easy for the embryo to be handed over to Huo Yuhao.

In addition to the Conferred God Platform, the embryo was also encased in a level-nine sealing soul tool, which was a protective soul tool that Mingde Hall reverse-engineered based on the principles of the Conferred God Platform.

The purpose is to ensure that even if the embryo is stolen, outsiders cannot open it and access the embryo inside.

Having obtained the Snow Empress's embryo, Huo Yuhao carefully placed it into the Starlight Ring, intending to awaken the Snow Empress after some time.

His current strength is level 68, and Xue Di is able to perfectly become his seventh spirit ring.

With Hyotei and Tenmeng around, he wasn't worried that Yuki-tei would self-destruct or attack as soon as she appeared; his safety was already guaranteed.

Moreover, Elder Yi has also begun to study soul rings, which are the prototype of soul spirits, during this period. Huo Yuhao felt that Elder Yi would have enough time to research them during the time he had reached level 70. In addition, he would also provide Elder Yi with some general ideas.

Teacher Kong Deming, Dean Jing Hongchen, and their senior brother all went to cultivate. After all, refining the immortal herbs and improving their strength was their most important task at the moment.

It is foreseeable that after refining the immortal herb in a while, the strength of all of them will see a great leap forward.

Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, residential area.

The long-awaited Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, along with Ji Juechen who had somehow received the news, were waiting here.

Upon seeing Huo Yuhao appear, the three of them happily stepped forward to exchange pleasantries, especially Meng Hongchen, who joyfully nestled into Huo Yuhao's arms and buried her head in his chest.

Huo Yuhao instantly saw through the strength of the three. Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen had reached level 60, while Ji Juechen had already become a level 63 Soul Emperor.

The sixteen-year-old quasi-Soul Emperors of the Hongchen siblings possess such strength that, even if placed in Shrek Academy under a fair selection system, they would be qualified to be among the Shrek Seven Devils.

That Holy Dragon of Light, Mu En, was eighteen years old and at level sixty-eight back then. He was hailed as a peerless genius, a once-in-a-century talent at Shrek Academy.

Compared to Huo Yuhao's composure, Xiao Hongchen and Ji Juechen looked shocked.

"Yuhao, are you really level 68?"

There's nothing we can do. When my good brother left, he was only level 40 and hadn't even obtained his first spirit ring yet. He's only been gone for a little over a year, and when he came back, he'd leveled up by more than 20. Nobody can accept that.

Even if you take drugs every day, you can't reach level 68 in just over a year, right?
It's impossible to say I wasn't prepared at all, but I was still inevitably taken aback.

"Yes, because of some special circumstances, the leveling up was a bit faster."

With a smile playing on his lips, he deliberately said, "What, you're not jealous, are you?"

Xiao Hongchen gritted his teeth, his eyes straining, while Ji Juechen turned his head away, unable to bear Huo Yuhao's expression of deliberately teasing them even though he clearly knew what they were thinking.

"Hey, hey, hey, I know you're the number one genius of Sun Moon Academy, but saying that is going too far, Ha Yuhao."

Xiao Hongchen finally accepted the fact that he had been surpassed. Although he had expected this situation, when it actually happened, he inexplicably felt that it was how it should be.

Meng Hongchen, however, didn't think that much about it; her eyes were sparkling with excitement.

"Yuhao, you're amazing. I thought that my hard work over the past year would impress you, but you still surpassed me."

Gu Yuena sat by the lake, her gaze intentionally or unintentionally observing the commotion.

Seeing Meng Hongchen, who had just been arguing with him, now acting coquettishly in front of Huo Yuhao, he couldn't help but grit his teeth inwardly.

However, she didn't take it to heart. After all, she had spent more than a year alone with Huo Yuhao, and she now had a vague understanding of some human emotions.

This feeling is really good.

Her current strength is also level 68, keeping at the same level as Huo Yuhao, which is clearly intentional.

In the past, this would have certainly attracted a lot of attention, but now that she is Jing Hongchen's disciple, this identity can help her get rid of a lot of unnecessary trouble. As for Jing Hongchen, because of the precedent of Huo Yuhao and those immortal herbs, he also blamed Gu Yuena's situation on those immortal herbs.

After all, Huo Yuhao improved so much with the help of immortal herbs, so it's not surprising that his own disciple, who had been following him for over a year, had also improved in this way.

Only Meng Hongchen was unconvinced. After all, she could accept that Yuhao had surpassed her, but Na'er had also surpassed her by so much and was younger than her. How could she accept that?

That's why she and Gu Yuena were arguing earlier.

"Oh, right." Huo Yuhao recalled his words when he left and said seriously, "I said I would bring you a surprise when I came back."

"Now, it's time to deliver on this surprise."

Xiao Hongchen hadn't paid much attention at first, since he was more concerned about his brother Huo Yuhao. But now, seeing Huo Yuhao surpass him so much, he was even more excited about this surprise.

Ji Juechen remained serious and unsmiling. His thoughts were simple: now that Huo Yuhao's strength had improved so much, he wanted to challenge him and have a real battle with him again.

Meng Hongchen, on the other hand, was much simpler. The clever girl could already figure out what Yuhao had prepared. It must be something that could make a Soul Master's strength increase dramatically. After all, even that idiot Na'er could improve so much, so could she.

Huo Yuhao first looked at Meng Hongchen and took out the Xuanbing Essence from the Starlight Ring.

"This substance is the essence of a celestial herb called Xuanbing Essence. It can enhance the attribute strength of ice-attribute soul masters. After Meng absorbs this essence, her ice attribute should be able to reach its peak."

The Eight-Cornered Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot Delicate Grass cannot be taken alone, but the essence is fine; this is an appetizer he specially prepared for Meng Hongchen.

Then she took out Spirit Dew and Narcissus Jade Bone. The former can help sublimate attributes. Even if the Essence of Profound Ice cannot help Meng Hongchen's ice attribute reach its peak, Spirit Dew is enough to do so.

As for Narcissus Jade Skin and Bone, this immortal herb is pure white and crystal clear, with petals like green lotus and white lotus root, and flower stems like jade, emitting a cool luster. When taking it, one only eats the petals, and then sucks on the stamens, using soul power to promote absorption.

After Meng Hongchen absorbs the essence of Xuanbing, it can strengthen his physique, nourish his tendons and bones, greatly enhance the strength of his tendons and bones, and improve his body's resilience and ability to withstand blows.

It can also clear the meridians, unblock the eight extraordinary meridians, optimize the circulation path of soul power, and significantly improve the foundation of cultivation.

In terms of soul power, it can enable soul masters to achieve level leaps, and this process provides continuous benefits. The effects are gentle and long-lasting, improving the speed of soul power cultivation in the long term.

As for dispelling hidden injuries and repairing meridian damage caused by martial soul backlash or toxin erosion, this is dispensable, but for Meng Hongchen, who had previously consumed many pills, it was still a considerable benefit.

Meng Hongchen was pleased with these introductions, but it wasn't until Huo Yuhao's last sentence that she was truly moved.

"This immortal herb can improve the appearance of a Soul Master, refine the jade bones, and make the Soul Master's skin have a light jade luster, making the skin as smooth and lustrous as jade, thus having a beauty effect."

"."

Okay, all that I said so far is less useful than this last sentence.

If Miss Meng had a tail, she would definitely stick it up to the sky.

"Thank you, Yuhao."

Extreme ice, and immortal herbs that can enhance soul power and improve appearance—Yuhao is so good to her.

He glanced at Gu Yuena with a smug look, but she frowned, snorted, and turned her head away again.

It's just a magical herb, what's there to brag about? I simply don't care for it, nor do I need it.

A strange emotion lingered in Gu Yuena's heart, but she didn't really feel it, or rather, she wasn't even aware of it.

Huo Yuhao then took out another immortal herb and handed it to Xiao Hongchen under his expectant gaze.

"This immortal herb is called the Thousand-Refined Gold Essence Vine. It grows and parasitizes in places rich in metal. The vine contains both lightning and metal attributes. After a Soul Master absorbs it, he can temper his entire body with lightning, greatly improve the Soul Master's physical strength, and harden and sublimate the Soul Master's skin."

"At the same time, because it is of the metal element, it greatly enhances metal element soul masters. Perhaps, after absorbing it, it can elevate your metal element to its ultimate level."
