Douluo Continent: Huo Yuhao obtains the Flame Emperor template

Chapter 168 Sun and Moon Reverse Retrieval of the Body Sect

Ye Yulin gently channeled a wisp of spiritual energy, activating the level nine energy-gathering soul-guided cannon, Starfall. The massive metal nozzle shimmered with intense starlight, its terrifying fluctuations causing Lang Ya's heart to tremble.

"What do you think of your decision? Send a few disciples of the Body Spirit lineage to my Sun Moon Sect to see the strength of your cultivation."

Ye Yulin spoke calmly and confidently, and with just a simple activation of the level nine energy-gathering soul guide cannon, she intimidated Lang Ya.

Lang Ya's brain-based martial soul perception was quite sharp, allowing him to clearly sense the huge metal pipe in front of him, which posed a deadly threat to him.

He said in a trembling voice, "Senior, since ancient times, it has been a matter of course for our Body Sect to welcome back those who possess Body Martial Souls..."

"However, there's no rule against sending a spirit-type Soul Master to your Sun Moon Sect!"

Lang Ya nervously indicated that Ye Yulin's actions were against the rules.

His Body Sect's spiritual lineage currently has two disciples who are exceptionally talented and outstanding: one is Gu Tong, who also possesses the Eye Martial Soul, and the other is Princess Vina, who possesses the Brain Martial Soul.

However, as Ye Yulin said, sending a few disciples to Sun Moon is out of the question; it's simply impossible.

Yu Tao's right arm martial soul belongs to the offensive lineage, and his perception is relatively dull. When fighting, he only advances and never retreats. Although he could tell that Ye Yulin seemed very strong, it did not stop him from recklessly charging in.

"Brother Langya, don't be afraid. Even though he is a level nine Soul Master, his physique still seems weak to me."

Yu Tao snorted angrily, his right arm suddenly growing larger: "What's there to fear from a mere level nine soul-guided cannon!"

"Let me throw a punch at him first!"

After speaking, Yu Tao stepped forward, and a dense black light burst forth from his right arm. His soul ring shone brightly, and he combined his soul skills with fist-type combat techniques, intending to unleash a barrage of attacks on Ye Yulin.

The Body Sect is skilled in combat techniques, and its Body Martial Soul has excellent combat techniques to complement it, allowing it to maximize its advantages.

When Lang Ya saw Ye Yulin frown, a sense of danger immediately filled the air, and cold sweat broke out on his back, making his hair stand on end.

He slapped Yu Tao's arm hard and quickly scolded him in a low voice, "Put your fist away. No matter how much we look down on Soul Masters, a Level 9 Soul Master is not someone we Soul Douluos can mess with. They'll be blasted into nothingness with a single shot."

Yu Tao, who had initially appeared fearless and determined, calmed down considerably upon hearing this.

Sensing the increasingly terrifying aura emanating from the level nine energy-gathering soul-guided cannon in Ye Yulin's hand, Yu Tao was terrified and swallowed hard.

"Ouch! My arm!"

Yu Tao gasped as a ray suddenly pierced his right arm, the wound hissing and steaming. He staggered back two steps, his face instantly turning deathly pale.

He looked up abruptly, and Ye Yulin had only released a single level eight energy-gathering soul guide ray, yet it had already caused him injury.

Although this injury wouldn't be serious enough to damage a Soul Master's foundation, as a member of the Body Sect, his physique far surpasses that of an ordinary Soul Douluo, and his right arm is his Martial Soul!

Ye Yulin broke through his right arm's defense with a casual strike.

Yu Tao was shocked, his expression constantly changing. He dared to challenge ordinary Title Douluos, but he never expected them to be so weak and vulnerable under the hands of a Level 9 Soul Master.

He originally intended to counter firepower with brute force.

However, his punch, a combination of his soul skill and fist technique, was easily pierced by a ray.

Seeing this, Xiao Hongchen chuckled, looking completely bewildered: "Yuhao, I heard that their Body Sect is proficient in combat techniques, so how come his fist technique doesn't even look as good as your Eight Extremes Collapse?"

When Huo Yuhao first enrolled in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, he would occasionally use the Eight Extremes Collapse, which he also introduced to everyone. This was a self-created soul skill.

However, this semester, the Eight Extremes Collapse technique has fallen behind Huo Yuhao's growth rate and is rarely used anymore.

Back then, Xiao Hongchen and the others, seeing the impressive power of the Eight Extremes Collapse, eagerly tried to learn it from Huo Yuhao for a while, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't master it.

Upon hearing Xiao Hongchen's words, Lang Ya suddenly turned his head, gaining a new understanding of Huo Yuhao's talent: "You even comprehended a combat technique on your own?"

No, he had to tell the sect leader about this. Huo Yuhao absolutely had to be trained by their Body Sect.

The Body Sect's fervent research into combat techniques is no less intense than the Sun Moon Empire's research into advanced humanoid soul tools.

Lang Ya looked at Huo Yuhao with eager eyes and said with great sincerity, "Young brother, could you demonstrate your combat technique called 'Eight Extremes Collapse' for me?"

As he spoke, he took out a card with 10,000 gold soul coins in it, which he used as a reward for demonstrating his combat skills.

Xiao Hongchen scoffed, "This little bit of gold soul coins is only good for beggars."

Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "Uncles, as you know, creating your own soul skill is extremely difficult. Its subtleties are hard to fathom, and perseverance and hard work are indispensable..."

He started his attacks with Flame Dividing Wave Ruler from then on, and used Eight Extremes Collapse less often. Perhaps he would only use Eight Extremes Collapse in small-scale battles.

While he was indeed somewhat unfocused in this regard, Xiao Huohuo rarely used the Eight Extremes Collapse technique after learning the Flame Dividing Wave Ruler, thus Huo Yuhao's mind was quite open.

If it's used in the match, the audience will see it anyway.

It would be better to give the Body Sect some of the shock of traditional fantasy fighting techniques.

Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words about "persistence and hard work," Lang Ya knew he should pay more. He immediately offered ten times the amount of gold soul coins to observe a move of the Eight Extremes Collapse.

This time, in addition to searching for the owner of the original martial soul, Lang Ya also came to Star Luo City to participate in a top-level auction at the Starlight Auction House. He specially brought a lot of gold soul coins, thinking that spending 100,000 gold soul coins to see a new type of combat skill was not a loss at all.

"Alright then." Faced with money that could be earned with just a few taps, Huo Yuhao figured it was a waste not to take advantage of it and accepted the Gold Soul Coin Card.

Seeing Huo Yuhao preparing to unleash his combat skills, Lang Ya and Yu Tao immediately perked up and watched intently.

Huo Yuhao circulated his soul power, and his arm immediately generated a powerful aura. Just by sensing the aura emanating from the surface, Lang Ya dared not say that it was all of it, but it far surpassed most of the combat techniques of the Body Sect.

"The Eight Extremes Collapse".

Huo Yuhao's soul power surged, and he unleashed punch after punch, his strength exploding, one punch after another, the air waves banging loudly.

What left Langya speechless was not how powerful it was, but the route by which Huo Yuhao used the Eight Extremes Collapse to circulate his soul power. It felt like the combat techniques of their Body Sect were completely different from theirs, and the opponent was obviously much more advanced.

Yu Tao didn't know how to express his thoughts, so he could only sigh, "What a great, high-quality self-created combat technique."

"If I were to forcefully attack one lineage, the disciples who possess the martial spirits of two arms and two palms would be able to learn this combat technique, and their individual strength would increase significantly."

Yu Tao imitated Huo Yuhao's punching posture, trying to unleash a move called Baji Beng.

However, when he swung his right fist, he hit the air. He threw several punches in a row, but apart from the whooshing sound of the air, he didn't feel any force at all.

"Even I can't figure it out, which further demonstrates the power of this combat technique."

Yu Tao was extremely excited, his eyes still wide open, his inner shock overflowing. If he weren't so much stronger than Ye Yulin, he would have wanted to take Huo Yuhao to the Body Sect to report to the sect leader, Poison Undying.

Lang Ya took a deep breath and said sincerely, "Young brother, with your talent and comprehension, you will be personally trained by the sect leader in our sect. Once you grow up, I guarantee that you will be invincible in the world, and even the elders of Shrek Sea God Pavilion will avoid you."

Ye Yulin squinted. He had heard of the old poison master of the Body Sect before. He coughed and changed the subject to himself.

He glanced at Yu Tao, who had just tried to punch him, and said coldly, "Didn't I just tell you not to be so brave? Let's talk."

"Your friend with the right arm martial soul, his way of talking is making things a bit difficult for this old man."

As he spoke, the aura of star annihilation enveloped Langya and Yutao.

Lang Ya was horrified, his face changing drastically: "Senior, there might be some misunderstanding between us. Yu Tao is too impulsive. Is there anything else you want to ask?"

Ye Yulin chuckled and said slowly, "Since you are unwilling to send disciples to our Sun Moon Sect... do you still remember what you said to Huo Yuhao and Meng Hongchen just now?"

Lang Ya was taken aback. Hadn't he always wanted to bring Huo Yuhao back to the sect? He tentatively asked, "Take Huo Yuhao back to the Body Sect?"

Ye Yulin slowly shook her head: "No, no, it's something else."

Lang Ya pondered for a moment: "Could it be that Huo Yuhao is engaged to the daughter of the Mingde Hall Master, and I asked Meng Hongchen to annul the engagement?"

Ye Yulin nodded slightly: "Since you remember, I won't beat around the bush."

As he spoke, he gestured to Xiao Hongchen beside him, smiled slightly, and introduced them to Lang Ya and Yu Tao:

"This young man is named Xiao Hongchen. He is the eldest son of Mingde Hall. He is exceptionally talented, handsome, and unmarried."

"I have long heard of the great reputation of the Body Sect. Its influence on the mainland is extraordinary. In some respects, it is comparable to the Mingde Hall."

Ye Yulin, with a shrewd and calculating air, narrowed her eyes and asked with a smile, "I wonder if your sect has any exceptionally talented young ladies? Preferably at the level of a young sect leader, someone who would be a good match for the eldest son of Mingde Hall."

"If so, why not have her become Xiao Hongchen's Daoist partner?"

Lang Ya and Yu Tao both froze upon hearing this.

They blocked the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy's team, trying to rescue someone, but failed.

Now Ye Yulin is actually turning around and trying to rescue people from their Body Sect. This is outrageous!

Their goal in getting Meng Hongchen to annul the engagement was to allow Huo Yuhao to return to his original sect with peace of mind.

Unexpectedly, Ye Yulin arranged for a female disciple of the Body Sect with exceptional talent to become Xiao Hongchen's Daoist partner, with the ultimate goal of indirectly sending their disciple to the Sun and Moon Realm.

Good heavens, they've changed their methods, but their motives haven't changed at all.

Lang Ya and Yu Tao were furious, but they couldn't beat Ye Yulin and were helpless. The key was that, from another perspective, the other party was also using their own methods against them, and they couldn't find a suitable excuse to refute her.

The two met Ye Yulin's meaningful gaze, stammering and unsure how to respond, finally managing to utter:

"Senior, the eldest son of Mingde Hall has a great deal to do with our sect in this matter. My brother and I cannot make a decision on our own, so we must go back and inform the sect leader."

The two immediately bowed and said, "Thank you for your mercy, senior. We have urgent business to attend to. See you another day!"

Langya and Yutao left in a hurry.

If we don't leave now, what will happen? If we're even a step too late, all the disciples of our sect will perish.

Xiao Hongchen looked at Ye Yulin with a face full of question marks, not knowing what to say. Why did you, sir, end up talking about your marriage with those two?

Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "Brother Xiao, what do you think of Elder Ye's method? If it succeeds, not only will it bring geniuses from the Body Sect to the Sun Moon Empire, but it might also make the entire Mingde Hall bigger and stronger in the future."

"Go away, go away." Xiao Hongchen waved his hand, looking like he was complaining that Old Master Ye was joking with him.

"Pfft~" Meng Hongchen laughed out loud: "Brother, you can consider Elder Ye's idea. I think it's very good."

Standing to the side, Old Ma sighed, "Old Ye truly deserves his status as a royal retainer; his foresight is beyond the reach of ordinary people."

Ye Yulin calmly withdrew his Star Annihilation, muttering, "The Body Sect, heh, I wonder what they're up to this time in the mortal realm."

"Xiao, Yuhao, Meng, let's go back to the Star Emperor Hotel." Ye Yulin glanced at Wang Yan and the others from the Shrek Academy team, too lazy to pay them any attention, and led all her disciples away.

At that moment, a violent fluctuation came from the surrounding space, and a disheveled figure appeared.

Not surprising at all.

Xuanzi arrived leisurely after Langya and Yutao left.

Dai Yueheng said softly, "Teacher Wang Yan, Elder Xuan is back. Should we tell him what happened earlier?"

Wang Yan nodded slightly, telling Dai Yueheng not to worry, he would explain it to Elder Xuan.

Xuanzi, still holding a chicken leg in one hand and a wine gourd in the other, was drinking happily. He sensed that the atmosphere in the group was a bit off again: "Wang Yan, what happened just now?"

Wang Yan frowned, feeling dissatisfied once again. He looked at the efficiency of the other team's protection and then at his own Elder Xuan, who was drunk. The difference in the protection teams was too great.

He told Xuanzi that Langya and Yutao of the Body Sect had directly stopped people, wanting to bring the Lan sisters back to the sect.

And the approximate process of Ye Yulin driving away Langya and Yutao.

Xuanzi listened, finished his chicken leg, casually tossed it aside, and snorted coldly, "The Body Sect is really ignorant of its own limitations now. Any Tom, Dick, or Harry can bully us Shrek Academy. They even dared to snatch people right in front of us."

He indicated that Langya and Yutao from the Body Sect were probably just out conducting a preliminary investigation.

Xuanzi was indignant, but he also tried to save face: "But that old monster is very strong. Even I, the Grand Secretary, am probably only able to match him... His words and actions are also arrogant and unreasonable. He has never known what reason is. His actions are arrogant and domineering. He is really barbaric."

"That Sun and Moon worshipper is truly timid and incompetent, actually proposing such an absurd thing as a marriage alliance. He probably doesn't dare to offend the Body Sect."

"If it were me, I would make sure those two disciples of the Body Sect left something behind. Shrek Academy's dignity cannot be trampled upon, not even by the Body Sect!"

After Xuanzi finished speaking, he took a big gulp of wine.

Hmph, if he had been there just now, he would have used extremely forceful methods to extinguish the arrogant arrogance of the Body Sect.
