Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 279 The Grim Reaper (Daily)

From within the blood mist, the excited cry of the Grim Reaper rang out, its hoarse and unpleasant shriek carrying far and wide.

A chilling aura, giving off a menacing feeling, surged wildly from the Grim Reaper's messenger within the blood mist.

It was a chill completely different from ice. It was sinister and malevolent, accompanied by a stench. The coldness felt like countless venomous snakes were burrowing into their bodies.

"Shh, everyone get out of the blood mist. Don't turn off the invincibility shield. We'll talk about it once we're out of the blood mist. Take out all the heavy soul-guided blast energy ray guns."

Huo Yuhao's mental fluctuations came again, and everyone silently followed Huo Yuhao's instructions, retreating far away from the blood mist's coverage area and surrounding the Grim Reaper.

Yao Haoxuan's face turned deathly pale, and cold sweat poured from his forehead. If Huo Yuhao hadn't slashed open his right arm and used the golden flames on the blade to purify the death miasma within it, he would have been doomed.

No matter how powerful the invincible shield is, it can never stop an explosion from the inside out. Your own arm, which has been corroded by the death miasma, will become the best detonator. After you are blown up by your own arm, your own corpse will become a new bomb, which may kill many people!

As the blood mist slowly dissipated, the Grim Reaper's skeletal face, which had been sacrificed with his own flesh and blood and was now as withered as a skeleton, quickly reappeared before everyone.

The Grim Reaper hadn't expected this outcome. When he saw himself being locked onto by several heavy soul-guided ray guns, he instinctively turned and ran, only to find that there were even more heavy soul-guided blast energy ray guns locked onto him behind him!

"Fire."

Huo Yuhao's spiritual power, devoid of any emotional fluctuation, transmitted its message, giving the other party no chance to struggle again.

More than a dozen blasting energy ray guns of varying power simultaneously pierced through the Grim Reaper's body, blasting him into charred remains.

Strands of black energy rose from his head, vaguely resembling a ferocious human face, relentlessly rushing towards Huo Yuhao.

"Yuhao, watch out!"

Everyone saw the black aura and shouted urgently.

This is the resentment of the Grim Reaper's soul retaliating. He was clearly destined to become a Title Douluo in less than ten years! Why, why did he fall here?!

He was unwilling to accept it, so unwilling!

Huo Yuhao found this laughable.

In Ashina, Huo Yuhao's methods for dealing with vengeful spirits were still somewhat limited. Without the Divine Snow, he could only rely on the ninja tools made of Genji Lapis Lazuli to effectively kill them. However, in the Douluo Continent, there were few in the world with a more abundant arsenal of demon-slaying weapons than him.

After taking a step forward with his left foot, he suddenly rolled forward, bracing himself with his left hand on the ground. He used the explosive power in his arm to propel Huo Yuhao into the air, his whole body stretching out in the air like a carp leaping out of its shell.

The katana held in Huo Yuhao's right hand now resembled a steel whip, with golden flames burning on the blade drawing a dazzling trail in the air. As Huo Yuhao's left foot touched the ground and he pressed his weight down with all his might, his right arm, as if wielding a long whip, lashed the katana down, striking the dark figure heavily.

A golden moon blade, seemingly capable of cleaving the night sky, flashed, followed by a strange sound.

"Bang—"

A strange sound, like a giant balloon being punctured, rang in everyone's ears. The black shadow that was rushing towards Huo Yuhao vanished into thin air with a lash from Huo Yuhao that resembled a long whip.

【Hawk Slash: A style of attack that involves leaping forward in a spinning motion and unleashing a slashing strike, instantly closing the distance to the enemy from a distance】

[By utilizing the weight of the Yotaka Clan's signature weapon, the great shuriken, a spinning force is generated to unleash the Yotaka Slash. If one possesses immense, superhuman strength, this technique can also be executed through brute force.]

Huo Yuhao sheathed his sword, his eyes showing no emotion. He had memorized all five of his opponent's soul skills.

【Battle Memories - Death Messenger】

The lich, who sacrificed his own flesh and blood just as he touched the edge of necromancy, was a wicked necromancer who lost himself in the pursuit of immense power.

[He is a master of creating corpse slaves and exploding corpses, a strange being with godlike power. His resistance to death sometimes allows him to unleash speeds that would leave even a Super Douluo speechless.]

"well done."

Just as Huo Yuhao was still reflecting on the gains and losses of this battle, Elder Xuan walked out from beside everyone, still wearing the effects of the Moon Concealment Candy, making him look incredibly ethereal.

To be honest, when the Grim Reaper detonated all his corpse slaves, Elder Xuan couldn't help but feel a chill for everyone. Even though he was right next to them watching, he was still shocked by the explosion of the Grim Reaper's corpses.

Fortunately, Huo Yuhao had prepared an invincible shield for each inner court disciple. Otherwise, if he hadn't taken action, the casualties among the inspection team would have been extremely severe.

"Quickly bandage Yao Haoxuan and take him back to the military camp to find a healing-type Soul Master."

Ling Luochen noticed Yao Haoxuan's pale face and immediately tried to stop the bleeding according to the pre-prepared plan.

"No need for that. I made such a big cut on Senior Yao's arm, of course I should take care of it."

Huo Yuhao pulled Ling Luochen back, then gently touched his brow, and a ball of green light full of vitality appeared on Huo Yuhao's fingertip.

"Senior Yao, you'll have to bear with it for a bit."

At this moment, Yao Haoxuan had already deactivated his Martial Soul Possession state and was sitting on the ground panting. After hearing Huo Yuhao's words, he nodded with difficulty.

The mental detection was activated again. This time, Huo Yuhao observed very carefully. Following the original horizontal cut of the muscle texture, he divided the green life force sphere into three layers and integrated it into Yao Haoxuan's arm to ensure that the connection of every muscle fiber in Yao Haoxuan's arm was as good as possible.

After the green life force sphere merged into Yao Haoxuan's arm, a large amount of granulation tissue grew from the original wound, regrowing the wound together. Yao Haoxuan felt a warm sensation constantly emanating from his arm, and his previously weak arm gradually regained sensation.

"A miracle doctor, Yuhao."

As Yao Haoxuan felt his arm, which had been hardened and turned cold from the miasma, gradually regaining sensation, he couldn't help but let out a strong sigh.

"What kind of miracle doctor am I? I just secretly learned a few tricks from Teacher Li to make it easier for me to treat my injuries. Teacher Li's neck blood vessel reconnection technique is the real wonder. I just used my life force to help you heal your wound along the muscle lines."

Huo Yuhao shook his head and smiled.
