Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 165 The Nourishment of the Gold of Life (Daily Voyage)

In that instant, Huo Yuhao's entire body was bathed in a cyan light, including his spiritual sea. The intense cyan light enveloped even the powers of Tianmeng, Qiandaoliu, and Ilex.

An unprecedented feeling of comfort spread throughout his body. Huo Yuhao felt that every tiny part of his body was groaning with happiness, greedily absorbing the rich life force emanating from the Soul-Devouring Carving Blade.

He seemed to see everything inside his body, and all of it had now turned into a vibrant, life-giving blue. His meridians became more elastic, his internal organs became stronger, his bones became harder, and his entire being seemed to be undergoing a qualitative change.

The most noticeable change was in his meridians. Although his meridians weren't directly widened, the ever-increasing resilience made Huo Yuhao completely certain that his meridians could withstand even greater impacts from soul power.

The blue light continuously washed over his entire body, and wisps of dirt began to be expelled rapidly from his pores.

When he sensed all of this, Huo Yuhao almost cried out in surprise.

It should be noted that even the Xuan Shui Pill, which has the effect of cleansing the marrow and improving cultivation aptitude, was of little use to his body. However, this azure light forced out the deepest and finest impurities hidden in Huo Yuhao's body little by little.

The immense life force contained within the Gold of Life was like a pool of life-giving water, cleansing every corner of his body from the outside in.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao had only one thought in his mind.

My cultivation aptitude can finally increase again!

Huo Yuhao was so overjoyed that he almost cried out in surprise as he enjoyed the baptism brought to him by the Gold of Life.

This cleansing did not improve his cultivation, but it made Huo Yuhao feel that his body was as clear as crystal, just like the Soul-Devouring Carving Blade.

Although it only lasted a few seconds, Huo Yuhao was certain that in those few seconds, his cultivation aptitude had improved by at least one level, and at the very least, he had the cultivation aptitude that only a Soul Master with innate Soul Power Level Six could possess.

This level of talent might only be considered average at Shrek Academy, barely making it out to the bottom, but in other academies, it would be considered a true prodigy, with a cultivation speed that would be the envy of others.

Just as Huo Yuhao was overjoyed, thinking that his cultivation aptitude could be improved even further, suddenly, the enormous life force paused for a moment, and the comfortable feeling greatly diminished within a few seconds.

Huo Yuhao, who was enjoying himself, suddenly felt a void all over his body, but his exceptionally keen senses immediately detected the problem. He was shocked to feel that the Soul-Devouring Carving Blade had left the space between his eyebrows, and even more terrifyingly, the sharp tip of the carving blade was pointing directly at his forehead above his brow.

Wait, do I not need to manually push this thing in myself?

Huo Yuhao's eyes widened. Just as he was about to say something, the carving knife pierced through him, the blade instantly sinking into his skull. The intense pain caused Huo Yuhao to groan involuntarily.

It's just a knife in the head, nothing serious, just a minor fatal wound. Although it hurts a bit, it's not as bad as the pain of absorbing the external vertebral bone last time, since that pain was directly applied to the spinal nerve bundle.

Huo Yuhao was lost in thought, trying his best to distract himself from the pain.

As the blade pierced his head, the previously surging life force rushed in instantly. Huo Yuhao's experience at this moment was like being suddenly struck by a soul-shaking impact, leaving him dizzy.

A tremendous life force surged from Huo Yuhao's forehead into his spiritual sea, giving him an indescribable sense of comfort.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea had transformed into a vast, emerald-green ocean. The dense life force gradually thickened, and his spiritual sea itself was expanding outwards at an astonishing rate.

On Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea, three illusory figures of light and shadow slowly coalesced and took shape. Qian Daoliu couldn't help but marvel at what he saw, as it was the first time he had ever witnessed such a scene.

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm stretched out its plump body with great pleasure. It could feel that its spiritual essence was being nourished after the massive life force surged into the Sea of ​​Spirit.

Electrolux was no exception. Feeling his divine consciousness, which would have dissipated into the world in no time, finally stabilize under the nurturing of this power, he couldn't help but smile.

The three of them worked together in perfect unison, sensing the hard-won life force while protecting Huo Yuhao's spiritual essence.

"Big bug, you won't have to worry about me taking over your territory anymore."

Electrolux smiled slightly.

"Great Priest Qian, I have benefited greatly from discussing the path of light with you these past few days. In fact, I think your Spirit Hall is more deserving of the title 'glorious' than the Glorious Church."

As he spoke, Electrolux bowed to Qian Daoliu again.

"What, you've remembered quite a few things again?"

Qian Daoliu looked at Electrolux with a smile.

Electrolux laughed heartily: "Haha, I think it would be better not to think about it at all. But with this piece of living gold stabilizing this wisp of my divine consciousness, my divine consciousness has a vessel. When I remember something else, it won't be too late for the two of us to sit down and have a long talk."

As he spoke, Electrolux made a gesture with his right hand in front of him, and a cyan light gate appeared before him. He waved to Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Qian Daoliu, and his illusory form stepped into the light gate and disappeared.

Watching Electrolux disappear, Tianmeng couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "Such powerful control over divine sense. This is the innate advantage of you humans! I have cultivated for so many years, but I have not been able to condense my spiritual essence to the point of evolving into divine sense."

Qian Daoliu smiled upon hearing this: "It's alright. My spiritual power hasn't even become divine consciousness yet. Back then, I had only broken through the level 100 barrier. Neither my physical strength nor my spiritual power had time to complete the transformation to the god level."

The group was talking amongst themselves, while a strange thing was happening to Huo Yuhao.

The cyan Soul-Devouring Carving Blade piercing his forehead trembled slightly. Strangely, no blood flowed from the wound. Instead, the Soul-Devouring Carving Blade slowly softened and turned into a bluish-green liquid that flowed into Huo Yuhao's head through the wound.

Huo Yuhao's entire body was once again enveloped in a thick cyan color, and a vast life force continuously washed over his body, centered on his forehead.

Huo Yuhao's illusory eye was abruptly opened by the stimulation, but the next moment, the cyan carving knife actually crossed the line between reality and illusion, and steadily pierced into Huo Yuhao's illusory eye.
