Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 439 High Priestess of the Angels, Please Be Mind Your Image (Daily Voyage)

The ability to quickly construct the Gate of the Dead without physical objects is essential for Huo Yuhao.

Once he has fully mastered spatial magic, he will only need to open a small spatial rift to put things in, and he can use this demiplane just like a storage space, which is incredibly convenient.

Of course, before he successfully mastered large-scale spatial transfer—that is, before the arrival of the undead legion as Electrox just mentioned—he would still have to go through the Gate of the Dead if he wanted to summon undead creatures to fight.

Living organisms carry a large amount of energy, and spatial rifts are not very stable and cannot support the energy transfer of ordinary living organisms.

Undead creatures are not merely living beings; because their undead fire contains a vast amount of soul power, they often accumulate more energy than a normal living person.

That's why Electrolux forced Huo Yuhao to practice spatial magic again and again, making sure he could cast it instantly.

For a necromancer, or rather a summoner, this is indeed their essential skill.

If you can instantly flood the area around your body with a sea of ​​undead and gang up on them, then no matter how many assassins or warriors come, they'll be useless.

Other mages at least have instant-cast spells like Magic Shield, Lightning Bolt, and Fire Wall to protect themselves, but for summoners like necromancers, who can't instantly open portals to summon allies, death is a real possibility. Liches are actually a bit better off, since they have the Life Box to save their lives.

Therefore, even though Huo Yuhao himself is exceptionally strong, Electrolux is not at ease with him.

Experience often comes from lessons learned.

If he hadn't thought he had a huge advantage and confidently challenged the Brilliant Pope to a duel, he wouldn't have been plagued by the Pope's life curse for over six thousand years.

If Electrolux can advance steadily and step by step, he might actually be able to wipe out the human civilization of the Holy Demon Continent in one fell swoop—the undead legions are growing stronger with each battle, while the number of human powerhouses is decreasing.

A few hours later, Huo Yuhao collapsed like a salted fish onto a small mountain of bones.

Electrolux and Qian Daoliu's various tests were nearing their end. During their tests, although the little skeleton controlled by Qian Daoliu could not accept the divine test mark, it only triggered the error of the successor. Qian Daoliu bypassed the other test condition.

At this moment, Qian Daoliu was dragging his huge skeletal body toward Huo Yuhao. Huo Yuhao listlessly opened his eyes and saw a skeleton centipede made of bones swaying and crawling toward him. Huo Yuhao was so frightened that he immediately stood up.

"Haha, it's me, Yuhao. Don't be afraid. These undead creatures are really interesting. I can now control more than thirty legs to crawl forward. It's so interesting."

A hearty laugh rang out.

Huo Yuhao: "."

"These skeletal lives are indeed interesting, but it's too difficult for them to improve their strength. That's not good. They can only rely on their strength in life and devour flesh and blood to advance, which is far too inefficient."

Electrolux nodded in agreement when he heard what Qian Daoliu said.

With a tap of his right staff, the papers covered in writing flew up automatically and arranged themselves in the correct order, stacking them precisely into a pile.

The scraps of paper that recorded a lot of inspiration were automatically categorized and neatly stacked on the other side, while the rest of the useless paper gathered together and were burned to ashes by a sacred flame that suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Within seconds, the previously messy desktop and floor were restored to tidiness, with only two neatly stacked piles of papers indicating that Electrolux had just been working there.

"I've also studied this problem before, but I didn't have a good solution. At least I didn't figure it out before that damned pope cursed me."

"For the next six thousand years, I devoted all my energy to studying curses, and I had no time or energy to continue this research."

"In the period right after I retreated to the Tower of Eternity, I actually reviewed the reasons for my failure and considered ways to help the undead advance through other means, but I still couldn't quite grasp the key points."

Qian Daoliu's eyes lit up at this moment: "Old Yi, although you always laughed at how crude our methods of increasing strength in Douluo Continent were when we were in Yuhao's spiritual sea, if it's just about increasing strength, using the methods of absorbing soul rings and cultivating soul power in Douluo Continent might work, right?"

"Anyway, your higher undead beings can cast spells. As long as they can cultivate soul power and you provide them with enough ten-year-level soul rings, wouldn't that allow your undead soldiers to continue to grow stronger?"

"The undead's life force consists of nothing but the flame of their souls; cultivating soul power—that sounds quite reasonable, doesn't it?"

Ilex's eyes lit up at Qian Daoliu's words. To be honest, Qian Daoliu's idea actually sounded quite plausible. Although undead creatures don't have a dantian like humans, they might be able to possess martial souls and soul rings like other soul masters.

In this way, as long as we can find a way to stuff soul power into it and turn the dead into soul masters, this method seems to actually work.

Before long, Electrox, having sorted out the general idea, suddenly let out an incredibly excited soul scream.

The surrounding little skeletons were so frightened that they all disintegrated.

"Let me think about it. I need to think about it carefully. This matter is much more troublesome than breaking the divine test mark. I need to do more research before I can give you an accurate answer."

It seems that the fact that undead creatures can cultivate and advance on their own has greatly stimulated this necromancer.

Whether one is a cultivator or a researcher, the sudden realization that there is still a path beyond what one once thought to be the pinnacle of research would surely cause one to be overjoyed.

Before Huo Yuhao could react, Electrolux darted back into his sea of ​​consciousness, transforming into a grayish-white sphere.

An aged yet incredibly excited voice rang out: "Yuhao, you cultivate on your own for now. I'm going into seclusion to seriously research the advancement of undead creatures. Don't call me unless it's a matter of life and death. Haha, I never expected that the seemingly useless Soul Master cultivation system would have such benefits."

Electrolux logged off excitedly, while Qian Daoliu and Huo Yuhao looked at each other in bewilderment. Soon, Qian Daoliu realized that it was a bit embarrassing for him to still be controlling a giant skeletal centipede, so he quickly released the control and also logged off in Huo Yuhao's mental sea.

Electrolux's words came to an abrupt end, leaving Tianmeng Bingcan, who had just been awakened from her sweet dream, completely bewildered.

"What's wrong with this old man? Why is he so agitated today?"

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm looked at Electrolux's true form and muttered to itself in confusion.

"Forget about him, I'll just continue dreaming. Bingbing, hehe, my Bingbing."

While Hyotei was still studying how to construct his own form, he unceremoniously rewarded Tenmu with a Hyotei Claw.
