Douluo Continent: Angel Saint Huo Yuhao

Chapter 220 Fist

"What are you..."

The sea princess, whose thoughts were intertwined with the human and beast before her, turned back in confusion, unable to understand why the two people in front of her were suddenly filled with emotion.

"You do not understand."

Tianmeng sighed, patted Huo Yuhao's shoulder encouragingly, and forced out a few strands of blood tinged with black energy: "Go. Let it see our strength!"

"Um…"

After cleaning his body, Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes. The golden spear in his hand shone brightly under the spiritual light, and a spiritual crown appeared above his head.

powerful.

With these multiple enhancements, his spiritual power was elevated to an unprecedented peak. Even the liquid in his spiritual sea began to lose its illusion and began to generate substantial sound waves as it surged.

Bathed in spiritual light, Huo Yuhao's voice, imbued with wondrous power, recited his signature act that had accompanied him throughout his life:
"Soul shock!"

"Gah?!"

The strange bird, which was frantically surging with black mist in the realm of life, flapped its wings in panic and spat out a beam of blood light accompanied by a mournful howl.

Countless phantoms of soul beasts struggled desperately within this beam of light, finally bursting forth with powerful spiritual fluctuations, transforming into a blood cloud of hundreds of overlapping beast shadows that charged forward.

On one side was a vast wave of surging golden flames, and on the other side was the resentment of a pack of beasts exuding a ferocious, bloodthirsty aura.

Just as the two sides were about to engage in an earth-shattering clash, the Sea Princess, who had been silent all this time, suddenly uttered the first note and sang a melody that flowed like waves in layers.

Amidst the rapidly flickering soul flames of the strange bird, the golden tide, radiating divine might, unexpectedly surged forth with a second wave, the overlapping and surging creating even more dazzling and spectacular spray.

Mermaid Duet!
This is the amplification skill attached to Huo Yuhao's fifth spirit ring, which allows him to stack all his mental skills into one layer through the Sea Princess without taking up any cooldown time.

Furthermore, the only place this skill cannot reach is the Eye of Fate located between his eyebrows.

In other words, even if he has to sacrifice his mental energy to gain a lethal spiritual light, he can stack another layer and also release an additional soul impact to further increase his output.

Of course, this ability to sustain itself under extreme pressure also has its counterpart—

Mermaid obsession!

The second skill attached to Huo Yuhao's right arm is this ability that halves the energy consumption of mental skills.

When the two overlap, that is…

Double the price without any reason!
"boom!"

The two layers of waves that surged forward surged down, easily swallowing all the beast shadows the moment they collided. The terrifying torrent, like a tsunami, was like a millstone, crushing all the phantoms below.

"Giggle..."

Before the strange bird, struck on the head, could react, it was slammed to the ground with a half-scream, and the death power it possessed suddenly erupted as its soul fire trembled.

In an instant, the thick, liquid-like death force filled the crater created by the strange bird and then rapidly overflowed.

"Ok?"

Huo Yuhao lowered his eyes and, despite his mental probe being immersed in the black energy, received no response and was easily eroded by the tangible, deathly power.

"This thing's strength is quite strange..."

Standing beside him, Tianmeng pondered, "Although his cultivation level didn't seem particularly high, the amount of energy he absorbed was considerable. If we were to quantify it, it would probably exceed that of an ordinary 100,000-year-old soul beast."

"One hundred thousand years?"

Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow, tapped his fourth spirit ring with his spear staff, and unleashed a burst of spiritual fire downwards, which, combined with a soul impact, shattered the lifeless energy into a spray. "Roar!"

The strange bird that had been hiding there could no longer remain still. It surged into the sky, dragging a death wave that resembled the night sky, and its body merged with the wave, eventually coalescing into a colossal beast ten zhang long.

Although its original form can still be vaguely discerned, it is now entirely condensed from death power that lies between gaseous and liquid states. Under the dual attacks of the burning spiritual domain and the life force, its shape is unstable, filling in the gaps that appear from time to time.

Its energy comes from eighteen evil soul masters with at least eight rings. Even though they all died and the energy consumed during the transformation of the magic array was also considerable, the total amount of energy left behind was still substantial.

With its current form, which is close to the true form of a martial soul, this strange bird's attributes have undoubtedly reached a level comparable to a titled martial soul.

"It's a pity... I don't know how to use any skills, let alone make good use of this incredibly powerful force."

Huo Yuhao's gaze was deep and serene. He put the spear and staff in his hand into his spiritual sea and summoned the light and shadow of the Snow Emperor while chanting the name of the Ice Emperor.

Then, twins became one!
The spirit eye rings that were originally swirling and dancing around her body instantly shifted to one side, making room for the red and blue double rings that then rose up.

On one side, there is spiritual power shimmering with golden light; on the other side, there is extreme ice surging with a deep, cold current.

"Om~"

The orange fifth spirit ring of the Spirit Eye lit up again, but it was no longer a duet, but a more mournful and melancholic murmur.

The moment the song began, the once majestic bird suddenly changed its aura. The many vengeful spirits fused within its body seemed to awaken their intelligence, struggling desperately with their own power.

"Gah!"

boom!
A vivid crimson light burst forth amidst the monstrous bird's screams, shattering its massive body into dust, leaving only a mass of energy struggling amidst the scattered black mist.

Mermaid Aria.

This is the second soul skill attached to the fifth ring, and its effect is simply described as: to arouse the distracting thoughts deep within the opponent's mind.

Its effects on humans and beasts are currently unknown, but it was extremely effective against this strange bird formed from resentment, almost instantly tearing it to pieces.

Suddenly~
With a soft sound, the soul fire returned to its place, and the strange bird struggled to reassemble itself. But as soon as it looked up, Huo Yuhao, who had risen high into the sky, activated all his soul bones in the spiritual light that shone through his body.

An ice-blue soul core was also spinning rapidly in his dantian, complementing the golden light that filled his spiritual sea.

"Soul bone, soul core, soul ring..."

Huo Yuhao slowly raised his hand, and all eight spirit rings around him burst forth with dazzling light. His spiritual power and soul power were perfectly integrated, merging with three layers of emotional color.

make a fist.

A terrifying surge of energy flashed out, sending chills down one's spine. A double wave of spiritual energy re-emerged, yet within the blazing light of the Imperial Cold Heaven, it merged into a dazzling expanse of snow: "Condensing Light into Rain..."

As the ice and snow melt, all the energy converges into a single point in the second stage of the skill, converging into—

Huo Yuhao's palms clenched tightly.

"Emperor's Palm".

A layer of dazzling icy light appeared, filling the palm of the hand, then subtly separated from it by the Ice Emperor's Wrath, coating the surface of the fist.

"Hello?"

Huo Yuhao looked at the strange bird with a pale face, a smile appearing on his lips: "Goodbye."

"Wow!"

Under the vision of the strange bird, which was almost bursting with the warning signs of danger, Huo Yuhao calmly pushed out the fist that squeezed out ripples, the fist imprint hovering in the air.
