Douluo Continent: The Eye of Truth

Chapter 84 The Poison Undying Returns

Three days after entering the Body Sect, Long Aotian reported to the Grand Elder, Golden Body Douluo Jinpeng, who was in charge of the matter, and allowed Huo Yuhao to move freely within the Body Sect.

Those members of the Body Sect who were unaware of Huo Yuhao's background were also very curious about his arrival.

After all, there have never been many outsiders visiting the Body Sect. Most of the time, the people who can come to the Body Sect are those who possess the Body Martial Soul, which are discovered by the Body Sect members when they are traveling outside.

After being accepted into the sect, they will be assigned to various deacons and elders, and then follow the disciples to study and train together, so as to quickly enter the sect and complete the basic training of the Body Sect.

However, after Huo Yuhao arrived at the Body Sect, he basically did not cultivate with them.

Most of the time, he would immerse himself in the sect's scripture pavilion, and occasionally he would stand in the martial arts training area of ​​the sect square as an observer, watching the sect members train.

As for Huo Yuhao, who was detached from the crowd, the young and impetuous disciples of the Body Sect wanted to talk to him, but under the orders of their elders, they dared not disturb him and could only obediently train themselves.

The older deacons and elders of the Body Sect, however, were instructed by the Grand Elder, Golden Body Douluo Jinpeng, not to obstruct Huo Yuhao's actions, but to allow him to move freely within the Body Sect.

In the Scripture Pavilion, Golden-bodied Douluo Jinpeng watched Huo Yuhao rapidly flipping through several books simultaneously using his mental power, and secretly clicked his tongue in amazement.

"Sigh, when Old Zhao was managing the Scripture Pavilion, he told me this before, but I didn't believe him. Now it seems Huo Yuhao isn't seriously reading at all; he's practically read through all the books in the sect's Scripture Pavilion these past few days."

"Moreover, the sect leader abandoned him and ran away, probably on a whim. He didn't even say when he would return. That kid Long Aotian is really something else; he's been working day and night these past few days, I don't know what he's up to, he looks like he's gone mad."

Despite thinking this, Jin Peng didn't disturb Huo Yuhao, but let him do as he pleased. After all, geniuses always receive preferential treatment, and he also trusted the sect leader's judgment.

Before Huo Yuhao does anything too outrageous, let him do whatever he wants. Everything can be handed over to him to handle after Du Busi returns.

So in the following days, Huo Yuhao used the Eye of Truth and his mental power to collect all the knowledge and records in the books in the Body Sect's inner library.

This includes training methods and experiences on how to cultivate combat skills, as well as the methods for developing and utilizing various types of Body Martial Souls accumulated by the Body Sect over generations.

At the same time, Huo Yuhao also completed the collection of the martial souls of most of the disciples of the Body Sect, filling in the gaps in his previous understanding of other parts of the Body Martial Soul.

Now, apart from his eyes, Huo Yuhao can also use his third soul skill to analyze and reconstruct the other parts of his physical spirit, creating a spirit model suitable for his use.

Moreover, after collecting and deconstructing a large number of original martial souls, Huo Yuhao also discovered that compared to the difficulty of previously constructing different types of beast martial souls and weapon martial souls, which were difficult to sort out and had to be constructed from scratch for each one, this was much easier.

Most of the core structures of a body spirit are closely related at the microscopic level, and body spirits in the same part have the same underlying structure.

The only difference is that it is constructed and pieced together through various architectures, which leads to other effects such as element attributes.

However, Huo Yuhao has not made any further progress or discoveries at this point in his analysis. After all, Huo Yuhao has not spent much time at the Body Sect, and most of that time has been spent collecting information and recording data.

Today, in the sky, Poison Undying's large hand firmly grasped a silver crystal core, his body covered in dark green soul power, and he returned to the Body Sect looking somewhat disheveled.

"Damn, that's intense! I never expected that old bastard, the Evil Emperor, to go crazy over a mere 100,000-year-old offspring. Luckily, I ran fast. Hahaha, you can keep raging!"

All that could be seen was the silver crystal core that Du Busi was holding, which was enveloped by his dark green soul power, concealing all the aura it emitted, while also suppressing the soul filled with fear and resentment within the silver crystal core.

"Humans, let me go! Otherwise, my father will definitely avenge me! And your human world will suffer heavy losses!"

"Although my original body is now dead, as long as you are willing to return me to my father, I promise that this matter will absolutely end here."

Upon hearing this, Du Busi scoffed disdainfully. A mere soul beast dared to threaten him? Even if the Evil Emperor went mad and unleashed a beast tide, so what?

The Demon Forest is located in the Sun Moon Empire, and the location of his own sect is extremely secluded. Let the Evil Emperor cause trouble as he pleases. In fact, if he can cause more trouble for the Sun Moon Empire, Du Busi will probably be laughing in his dreams.

Moreover, given Poison Undying's current strength as a level 98 Super Douluo, in order to avoid the Evil Emperor's spiritual power detection, he only hastily controlled the soul core of the 100,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant before quickly leaving the Demon Forest.

That's why the 100,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant was given the chance to speak. Now that it's in its own stronghold, it's natural to create several more layers of sealing measures to ensure that the 100,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant won't cause any trouble.

"Tsk tsk tsk, your Evil Eye Tyrant clan is really convenient to carry around. After the main body dies, it actually transforms into this crystal core form."

"If I'm not mistaken, only when you die in this form will you be truly dead, and only then will your spirit ring be born."

"But this makes things easier. You were so fearless in the battle before, I thought I had accidentally killed you and would have to find a new 100,000-year soul ring for my disciple."

The 100,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant secretly groaned, "Who would have thought that you, seemingly an ordinary Title Douluo, would actually unleash the strength of a level 98 Super Douluo in a real fight, trying to deceive and ambush me, my 100,000-year-old comrade?"

What does it mean to be fearless? He was killed instantly without even having time to react!

As one of the most favored direct descendants of the Evil Emperor, it has been running rampant in the Demon Forest for years, and even evil soul masters from the outside world have to tuck their tails between their legs when they see it.

Therefore, it lacked combat experience and was easily defeated by the poison, without even having a chance to send a distress signal to the Evil Eye Tyrant.

After spending considerable effort to completely suppress the will of this 100,000-year-old evil-eyed tyrant, Poison Undying found Long Aotian, who was now disheveled and looked like a wild man.

"???"

Looking at his eldest disciple, who, though somewhat dejected, shone with a unique brilliance in his eyes, Du Busi almost doubted whether he was seeing things.

"Aotian, what's wrong with you?"

Although he intended to leave the inheritance seed of the Body Sect to Huo Yuhao, the most suitable successor, this did not mean that Du Busi did not cherish his eldest disciple.

It's worth noting that Long Aotian could be considered someone he practically raised himself. For Du Busi, who had no offspring, he was treated almost like his own grandson.

Therefore, before Huo Yuhao arrived, Long Aotian was the only hope for the younger generation of the Body Sect, and also Du Busi's most proud disciple.

"Wait, so you've reached the threshold of harmony between humanity and nature?"

After careful examination, Du Busi found that Long Aotian was full of energy and there was nothing wrong with him. On the contrary, his aura was perfectly integrated, and he seemed to have entered the state of oneness with heaven and man.

Long Aotian smiled wryly, nodded, and said, "I've gained some insights these past few days, but nothing remarkable."

"Damn it, you're even being modest with your master. At your age, your level of cultivation even surpasses most of the elders. You should be secretly happy about it."

"By the way, where's your junior brother? I don't see him here. Didn't I tell you to teach him properly?"

Only then did Du Bu Si remember the person he had truly come to find.

Although Huo Yuhao's current cultivation level is not high enough to absorb the soul ring of the 100,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant, and Du Busi would not risk letting him carry the soul core of the 100,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant with him.

However, from the body of the 100,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant, Du Busi found a 100,000-year-old skull with pure spiritual attributes, which was a perfect match for Huo Yuhao, a spiritual attribute soul master.

Moreover, after fusing with the same origin soul bone, the difficulty of fusing with the soul ring of the 100,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant will be reduced considerably.

Just like a seventh spirit ring that can't kill you is at the 100,000-year level.

Huo Yuhao may be able to fuse with the 100,000-year soul ring of the Evil Eye Tyrant when he gets his sixth soul ring.

This is because Huo Yuhao possesses a second awakening of his innate, gold-level Martial Soul.

With the strength of a second awakening of a gold-level Body Martial Soul, Huo Yuhao's potential could be raised even further beyond the original top level recorded in the Body Sect.

Upon hearing Du Busi's question, Long Aotian's expression stiffened before he finally spoke, "Teaching Junior Brother? Master, are you sure you didn't intentionally send Junior Brother to teach me before?"

"Three days! Just three days after you left the sect, Junior Brother achieved the Unity of Heaven and Man! That's quite something!"

At this point, Long Aotian's worldview, which he had spent several days organizing, almost collapsed again. He quickly calmed himself down, cleared his mind of distractions, and dared not think about anything more.

Upon hearing this, Poison Undying's first reaction was: "It took three days to master the basics. Although the progress is extremely fast, it's not unreasonable for a Gold-level Body Martial Soul to undergo a second awakening."

"Wait, Aotian, you mean the beginner level, right? Did you misspoke?"

Poison Undying's lips twitched. He preferred to believe that Long Aotian had misspoke, that he had misspoke about the concept of "the unity of heaven and man" in the beginner's guide.

He couldn't believe that Huo Yuhao could achieve the unity of heaven and man in just three days, a feat that many elders in the Body Sect couldn't accomplish.

While it's true that a second awakening of a congenital gold-level martial soul is powerful, isn't Huo Yuhao's strength a bit too much?

However, Du Bu Si was even more delighted. He could achieve the unity of man and nature in just three days, which would take an ordinary person a lifetime. What would happen after that?

Huo Yuhao's talent and aptitude have far surpassed his own and his elder brother Du Bisi's; his potential is absolutely limitless.

After that, as long as one inherits the Seed of the Body Sect, and achieves the unity of heaven and man and the second awakening of the Gold-level Body Martial Soul, one can achieve further success.

Huo Yuhao could have tried fusing a 100,000-year soul ring after fusing the 100,000-year soul bone, when he was getting his fifth soul ring.

With further training and development, given Huo Yuhao's current talent, becoming a Limit Douluo is absolutely a certainty.

A Limit Douluo with five 100,000-year spirit rings and a full set of 100,000-year spirit bones must be incredibly powerful and terrifying.

This represents absolute dominance, enough for the Body Sect to replace Shrek Academy's original position and dominate the entire Soul Master world!

As for the claim that they can't be fully equipped? Well, there are only three words: impossible.

Unlike Shrek Academy, the Body Sect is smaller in scale and has fewer Body Spirit Soul Masters.

Therefore, there are not many separate factions within the Body Sect, and the mutual exclusion and struggle between them are naturally very little.

Furthermore, after joining a sect, everything revolves around the sect, and the original sect members die of old age or in battle.

Even the soul bones possessed by sect leaders and elders will not be leaked or inherited by their descendants. Instead, they will be uniformly handed over to the sect for unified management and distributed to the most talented disciples.

Although its foundation is not as deep as Shrek Academy, the Body Sect has preserved quite a few soul bones over thousands of years, including many of them at the 100,000-year level.

Although most of them have been acquired by some elders, there are still some rarer soul bones that are difficult to find their owners.

Spiritual attribute soul bones are one of them. Poison Undying remembers that there should be a left arm bone left by a spiritual attribute soul beast that was left hundreds of years ago. It was produced by a spiritual attribute soul beast at the level of 100,000 years.

However, among spirit-attribute soul bones, the skull is the most revered. This left arm bone is considered rather useless due to its location and its incompatibility with ordinary soul masters, so no one has inherited it yet.

Even if Huo Yuhao's 100,000-year soul bones are not complete after helping him hunt down suitable soul rings, he can still collect them by killing a few more 100,000-year soul beasts.

Although this will inevitably cause a riot among the soul beasts, at worst it will just trigger another beast tide. Compared to a peerless expert who can lead the sect to its peak, what does that matter?

"Alright, Aotian, now that you have reached the threshold of the unity of heaven and man, you should stay here and consolidate your realm. I will go and see your junior brother to see if he has adapted to life in the sect these days."
