Douluo Continent: Huo Yuhao obtains the Flame Emperor template

Chapter 36 Chicken Leg Xuanzi Goes to Catch Chickens

Upon hearing Wang Dong's words about "students becoming prey," Bei Bei suddenly lowered her body and whispered in surprise.

"Junior brother, I've heard that Elder Xuan's martial arts are extremely powerful and unparalleled."

"With such a powerful senior member leading the team, how could the students possibly become prey?"

Beibei knew some inside information. Apart from his ancestor Mu En, who was the current head of the Sea God Pavilion, among all the elders, Elder Xuan's strength was undoubtedly the number one.

If any danger were discovered that could jeopardize the students' lives, Elder Xuan would likely eliminate it with a flick of his hand.

After finishing a bag of potato chips, Wang Dong took out a bottle of beverage from his storage bracelet, held the straw in his mouth for a moment, and raised his eyebrows to signal to Elder Xuan, who was giving a speech on the steps.

"Senior Beibei, this is just my feeling."

Wang Dong shared his impression of Master Xuan: "Look at that Chicken Leg Teacher, he's completely drunk. He doesn't seem very reliable at all."

After finishing her potato chips, Xiao Xiao licked her fingers, her eyes blinking a few times. "Hearing Wang Dong say that, it seems to be true."

"I noticed that the teacher would take two sips of alcohol every three sentences, and then take a bite of a chicken leg in between. It was as if he would be full and fast asleep somewhere the next second."

Listening to their conversation, and then looking at Elder Xuan eating chicken legs and drinking wine, Bei Bei rubbed her chin and fell into a brief moment of thought.

Suddenly, Beibei inexplicably felt that Xuanzi possessed a strange and mysterious power, as if he would lead everyone on a journey...

They embarked on an extraordinary path.

A handsome senior student from the inner academy in the group frowned slightly upon hearing what Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao were saying.

He turned to look at Wang Dong, his tone carrying a hint of instruction for his junior.

"Junior brother, you can't judge the strength of Elder Xuan's abilities by appearances. Don't be fooled by his slovenly appearance; his cultivation level might be higher than you can imagine."

"Unbelievable?" Wang Dong blinked her beautiful eyes as she thought of her great-uncle and great-uncle, and said frankly.

"What's there to be afraid of? Has that teacher holding the chicken leg reached the level 99 Limit Douluo?"

The senior student from the inner academy was taken aback, then chuckled and said, "Junior, that's not what you think."

"I know that in your first year, the Soul Master theory course will cover the specific levels of Soul Masters. It's inevitable that you young Soul Masters will have some fantasies about the highest level of Soul Master."

"But what you call a Limit Douluo is indeed an exaggeration; there are probably only a handful on the entire continent."

As the senior was speaking, his gaze turned to Xuanzi on the steps, his face full of admiration and respect. "As a disciple of the Shrek Academy's Supervisory Group, I have the highest respect for Elder Xuan."

"I trust Elder Xuan the most."

The senior student was absolutely convinced that being able to join the Shrek Academy Supervisory Group was the greatest honor.

At this moment, a woman with a beautiful appearance and graceful demeanor walked over.

The woman looked to be in her early twenties, with a beautiful face, eyebrows like crescent moons, and long hair cascading over her shoulders. Her well-tailored Shrek Academy attire accentuated her tall figure.

However, her beautiful eyes gave off a cold and aloof feeling.

It was Zhang Lexuan, the senior sister of the inner court, who had the most say in "Elder Xuan leading the team to hunt for soul rings".

Zhang Lexuan's face was expressionless. Her gaze lingered on Wang Dong for a moment. "Beibei, what this junior said makes sense. Elder Xuan is indeed prone to oversights sometimes."

The familiar voice immediately made Beibei and Tang Ya look at Zhang Lexuan and stand at attention.

Although Bei Bei didn't explicitly mention his relationship with Zhang Lexuan, Tang Ya could roughly guess that the two had a special relationship.

Tang Ya secretly tugged at Bei Bei's sleeve, feeling a little embarrassed, and asked softly, "Bei Bei, is Senior Sister going too?"

"This is beyond my control. Usually, as the senior disciple, she will participate in most of the tasks that Elder Xuan organizes the inner disciples to complete."

Beibei also felt a little awkward and said something to Zhang Lexuan in a serious tone.

"Don't worry, Senior Sister. Xiaoya and I will be extra careful."

"Okay." Zhang Lexuan nodded slightly.

Without saying anything more, her expression remained aloof. As she turned, a gentle breeze blew past, and she walked silently to the front of the line.

Master Xuan's safety speech had ended by then.

He slurped up the chicken leg in a few bites, tossed the bone aside, and wiped his hands on his oil-stained clothes.

"Students of the Shrek Academy Inspection Team, our mission this time is arduous, and it will also be an opportunity for you to accumulate experience and temper your character."

Elder Xuan let out a burp. "In principle, I should accompany the team to protect them, but in order to achieve the best training results, I will not take action unless absolutely necessary."

Standing at the front of the line, Zhang Lexuan frowned slightly, hoping that the situation of "not seeing Elder Xuan make a move when necessary" would not occur.

Elder Xuan said in a deep voice, "Of course, if you encounter a crisis that is truly insurmountable, you can loudly call out my name, 'Elder Xuan'."

"I'd like to see what kind of scoundrel dares to be so insolent before me, the Gluttonous Douluo!"

Then Elder Xuan took out a chicken leg, took a big bite out of the meat, glanced at Zhang Lexuan, and said indistinctly while chewing, "Alright, Lexuan, lead the team and set off."

"Yes, Elder Xuan." Zhang Lexuan straightened the formation and explained the main mission to all the students: to go to the Sunset Forest of the Heavenly Soul Empire to wipe out a not-so-strong team of evil soul masters, and incidentally, to hunt soul rings for some of the students.

And so, the team led by Xuanzi walked toward the gates of Shrek Academy.

Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao waved goodbye to Tang Ya and Bei Bei: "Senior Bei Bei, Senior Tang Ya, please be careful when you're out and about."

……

In the far north, the Ice Emperor escorted Huo Yuhao to the edge of the core area.

Huo Yuhao suddenly stopped, releasing Bone Spirit Cold Flame with his left hand and Purple Flame with his right.

"Brother Tianmeng, my physique has improved significantly. My body is much more resilient. It's completely different from when I was at the first level. My physique has been enhanced many times over."

"It's time to conduct that experiment... What do you think, Tianmeng?"

When Tianmeng Ice Silkworm saw Huo Yuhao release two flames at the same time, it was startled. Although it already had a guess in its heart, it still asked a question with trembling body.

"Which experiment?"

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, making a serious matter sound very relaxed, "It's about fusing these two flames together. I've heard that both beast spirits and weapon spirits can have spirit fusion skills, so my two flames should be fused together."

"Moreover, this core area of ​​the far north is not a place where I have to worry about being disturbed, making it a perfect experimental location."

Xue Di immediately appeared in her spiritual form, her brows furrowed. She did not try to dissuade Huo Yuhao, but only told him about the risks of this action.

"This wisp of pale white flame must be the Bone Spirit Cold Flame. As expected, its icy attribute is stronger than mine."

"Although the fire attribute of the other wisp of purple flame is not as strong, if it is used as a catalyst to ignite the extreme heat and extreme cold attributes in the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, there is a risk of exploding and dying."

Hyotei immediately panicked and quickly used pliers to clamp Huo Yuhao's wrist, trying to persuade him.

"Yuhao, don't you have any attachments? Think of Senior Yi, Xue Di, and Tianmeng. If you explode and die, they will all go with you."

"It's alright if you're not afraid of death, but Xue Di and I are. We finally seized the opportunity for immortality, and Xue Di and I really don't want to..."

"Bing'er, Bing'er." The Snow Empress, feeling that being told she was afraid of death somewhat damaged the dignity of the Queen of the Far North, quickly called out twice.

Before Hyotei could finish speaking, Yuki-tei, with a leisurely and unhurried manner, casually lifted her delicate chin with her slender fingers and said something.

"Bing'er, actually I'm not that afraid of death. Let Yuhao do the experiment."

Hyotei was silent for a few seconds, then asked Electrox, "Senior Electrox, what's your opinion?"

Electrolux exclaimed, "Yuhao, your audacious idea pales in comparison to my youthful thoughts when I experimented with forbidden necromancy spells."

"It's even better than that."

Old Yi's words carried an indescribable meaning, filled with emotion yet also a touch of appreciation.

Upon hearing this, Ice Emperor slowly lowered the pliers clamped on Huo Yuhao's wrist. Anyone could tell that Elder Yi was not biased towards persuading Huo Yuhao.

After a brief silence, Electrolux said slowly, "Yuhao, let's begin the experiment."

"Ever since you last had this crazy idea, I've known it's impossible to suppress."

"If you don't actually put it into practice, it will undoubtedly haunt your mind like a demon, preventing you from achieving enlightenment."

Hyotei and the others did not intend to stop or refute it.

Huo Yuhao took a deep breath. "Thank you all for your support."

Hyotei pounded the ground with her two large pincers. "Senior I, Yuki-tei, and Tenmu are all risking their lives to support us."

"Anyway, I haven't merged with you yet. If you fail, I'll go and take human form."

Xue Di crossed her arms and glanced sideways. "Yu Hao, you can begin."

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm conjured a cotton quilt and wrapped herself up like a nightgown. "I dare not look. Let me know when Yuhao succeeds."

Huo Yuhao nodded slightly, stretched his hands forward a certain distance, and stared intently at the two flames of different colors in his hands.

As the pale white and purple flames gradually moved closer to the center, everyone tensed up.

Snow Empress's eyelashes trembled slightly, Tianmeng shivered inside her pajamas, and Ice Empress's two pincers squeezed together with a cracking sound.

Old Yi calmly stroked his beard, but upon closer inspection, the whiskers around his mouth were slightly twitching.

"The Fire Lotus that explores peace is beginning to take shape." Huo Yuhao's eyes were filled with a pale golden halo. Under the gaze of his spiritual eyes, the pale white flame and the purple flame slowly began to come into contact.

At the same moment, Huo Yuhao immediately mobilized his mental energy to precisely control the fusion of the two flames.

"boom!"

The moment the two flames clashed, a muffled thunderous sound rang out, and the energy flowing within his arms became incredibly violent.

Energy surged, and the flesh on Huo Yuhao's two arms burst open, the skin torn and the bones exposed. He immediately activated the Seal of Life to heal and recombine.

Constantly bursting apart, constantly recombining...

Xue Di and Bing Di could only call out "Yu Hao" in worry, and together with Tian Meng, they mobilized a small amount of their primordial power to help protect his internal organs and meridians.

Huo Yuhao endured the excruciating pain without uttering a sound, his glowing eyes fixed on the flames merging between his hands. He pressed his hands together, gradually forming a strange ball of fire.

A pale white flame swirled on the left, and a purple flame swirled on the right.

Huo Yuhao activated the Burning Technique, causing the two flames to alternate, compress and merge until a certain critical point was reached.

Finally, the originally extremely violent flames calmed down after completely merging together.

Reassured, Old Yi's beard stopped twitching. Under the delighted gazes of the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress, Huo Yuhao formed a white and purple lotus seat between his hands.

Huo Yuhao smiled and looked at the trembling Tianmeng Ice Silkworm wrapped in its pajamas, then informed it, "Brother Tianmeng, it's a success."

Then it was introduced: "Elder Yi, Snow Emperor, Ice Emperor, this is the product of the fusion of two flames, called Buddha's Wrath Lotus."

Several people gathered around, looking at the white and purple flame lotus seat, and exclaimed that it was truly an exquisite little trinket.

The process of fusing into a Buddha's wrathful lotus consumes a significant amount of both soul power and mental energy; in fact, it consumes four-fifths of both.

Then, amidst everyone's anticipation, Huo Yuhao tested the power of the Buddha's Wrath Lotus.

A lotus seat of white and purple flames silently streaked across the sky, melting away all the snowflakes along its arc, and then expanding a few meters above the ground.

boom--

With a deafening roar, a massive snow crater, impossible to create even with the combined might of a Soul Master, was left in the core region of the far north. (PS: In Battle Through the Heavens, the second ring is equivalent to Battle Qi, making one a Battle Master...)

(Huo Yuhao uses his sub-fire and soul power. Xiao Yan uses his unique fire origin and battle qi. Each of their systems is two levels higher.)

After the experiment, Huo Yuhao gained some insights into the key points of fusing the Buddha's Wrath Lotus... He then made some grilled fish, ate two himself, and left the rest for Bingdi, who took turns biting them with her two large pincers, one on each side.

After being reminded by Ice Emperor to "come early," Huo Yuhao nodded and walked towards the outskirts of the far north without letting Ice Emperor see him off.

"Yuhao, let me take you to the place where I lived a long time ago."

"As the ancestor of those ice silkworms, I blended in with the ferocious beasts before they were even born. Therefore, I can see through all the ice silkworms' disguises. I'll take you to pick one that's the right age to be your second spirit eye soul ring."

Huo Yuhao pondered for a moment, "Brother Tianmeng, they are Ice Silkworms, and you are also an Ice Silkworm. If you were to transform into a soul spirit, could you use your own consciousness to condense a second soul ring with a simulated soul skill?"

…………

a few days later.

Sunset on the forest outskirts, along a forest path.

With the help of Elder Yi, Huo Yuhao successfully transformed the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm into a soul spirit and gained the second ring of simulated soul skills. His figure flashed through the forest path.

"Explosive Steps!"

After merging with Xue Di, Huo Yuhao's arms and legs became much more resilient, making him more adept at using the Eight Extremes Collapse technique.

Similarly, the previously rewarded movement technique, Explosive Step, has also been initially mastered.

To improve his proficiency with the Burst Step, Huo Yuhao did not choose to take the main road and official road back to Tiandou City, but instead chose to follow the small path on the outskirts of Sunset Forest.

After practicing his explosive steps for a while, Huo Yuhao filled his stomach with grilled fish.

high altitude.

An old man, dressed in tattered clothes stained with oil, was leisurely flying around, drinking wine and eating chicken legs.

It was Xuanzi.

Suddenly, a glint of light flashed in Xuanzi's slightly closed eyes, as if he had spotted something delicious.

"A chicken-type spirit beast with a lifespan of 25,000 years?! This beast's chicken legs would be absolutely delicious roasted!"

So Xuanzi dashed off into the distance to catch a chicken.
