Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 808 Depth and Shallows (6K)

"Poison can't kill" is right, that's definitely true.

Any martial soul can potentially undergo a second awakening; it's just a matter of how difficult it is.

The second awakening of the original martial soul is the easiest and the power is extremely strong, but it also has certain drawbacks.

That means it can't be permanent. Just like what Huo Yuhao encountered in the competition before, those guys from the Body Sect used their second awakening of their martial soul as a trump card, occasionally unleashing it.

With their unparalleled speed, they soon arrived at a suitable testing location.

In mid-air, the soul power hand that Poison Undying had condensed had already grabbed Huo Yuhao.

As a test for developing the body's potential, the test naturally examines the body's limits, and martial spirits are of course unusable.

Fearing that his soul tools might not be of high enough quality to withstand the immense pressure of the deep sea, Huo Yuhao even put away all his storage soul tools and threw them directly into the undead demi-plane.

Du Bu Si raised an eyebrow as he watched Huo Yu Hao's actions.

Previously, Mu En invited him to the Sea God Pavilion for a chat, asking him and Qian Duoduo, the two insiders, to keep quiet and keep the secret that Huo Yuhao possessed a golden soul ring, so that Mu En could put on a show later. This already made Du Busi find it unbelievable.

But feeling the terrifying power behind the small door that Huo Yuhao casually released, Du Busi suddenly realized that even though he was already wary of Huo Yuhao's strength, he still underestimated this little guy.

Poison Undying's usual carefree smile vanished, replaced by an uncharacteristic seriousness: "Yuhao, are you ready?"

"Even if I personally watch over you, you still risk dying. Let me remind you, in the history of the Body Sect, 30% of its disciples died from this kind of cultivation."

Huo Yuhao chuckled. He was currently lacking this kind of training. He didn't touch the two dragon god remains inside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well for two reasons: first, he was worried that touching them would affect the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and cause it to lose its effectiveness; second, his own physical fitness was still insufficient.

pain?

A life-or-death crisis?

This is no big deal.

Which of Huo Yuhao's great advancements didn't involve facing life-or-death crises and immense pain?

Poison Undying laughed heartily: "Just a routine inquiry. I knew you weren't a coward. Come on!"

Before he finished speaking, the powerful soul force hand pulled Huo Yuhao down instantly, plunging him into the sea.

The Body Sect is located in the northernmost part of the Douluo Continent, in the northwest of the Heavenly Soul Empire.

Due to the influence of geographical environment and season, the seawater here can now be described as absolutely icy cold.

In an instant, Huo Yuhao felt as if his entire body was enveloped by seawater, and the surrounding light dimmed.

The powerful hand of soul energy pressed him down, causing him to sink into the sea.

For every ten meters of descent, the pressure increases by one atmosphere.

As they dived deeper, even with Huo Yuhao's formidable physique, he felt the immense pressure from nature.

In the deep sea, you can't breathe.

The soul power and blood energy within his body were gradually suppressed, and a feeling of suffocation followed, followed by the pressure from sinking deeper and deeper into the sea.

However, having mastered the aquatic breathing technique, Huo Yuhao was now swimming like a fish, his complexion normal, even more relaxed than Du Busi.

Soon, Du Busi brought Huo Yuhao to a depth of 500 meters.

Normally, we should be at this point and begin the normal ascent test.

The vast majority of disciples of the Body Sect couldn't even last 500 meters before they lost consciousness.

But Huo Yuhao was different. Even under the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, Huo Yuhao had reached a depth of a thousand feet. This was partly due to the mystery of the Water Breathing Technique, a secret method for worshipping the Divine Dragon, and partly because Huo Yuhao's physical qualities were indeed terrifying enough.

Five hundred meters, to put it bluntly, is only two hundred zhang deep, which is not enough to make Huo Yuhao feel any substantial pressure.

Unable to speak in the deep sea, Huo Yuhao's mental energy fluctuated slightly, indicating that he was alright and allowing Du Busi to continue descending.

Poison Undying was extremely surprised.

How could someone maintain such a level of clarity at a depth of 500 meters without using their martial spirit?

What a little monster.

Judging from his appearance, he didn't seem to be struggling at all.

Seeing that Huo Yuhao was indeed not overconfident, Du Busi slowly led him down again.

600 meters.

800 meters.

one thousand meters

The pressure of the seawater is increasing, and the power from nature is growing stronger.

As he continued to sink, the water pressure began to take effect, and Huo Yuhao could feel his blood circulation becoming sluggish, and his vision gradually dimmed.

The sea was pitch black, with almost no light.

There was no end in sight, nor could the sea be seen.

The circulation of Qi and blood began to slow down, his limbs felt heavy as if they were bound by chains, and his whole body felt like it was sinking into a swamp.

Three thousand meters, a full thousand feet deep, even the Limit Douluo who couldn't be poisoned felt immense pressure, making him crack and pop. Even an iron can made of fine steel would be crushed under such pressure.

Is this a second martial soul awakening for me, or a martial soul awakening for you, kid?

If we go any further, I'm afraid even I won't be able to hold on much longer!

Poison Undying was really desperate this time. Huo Yuhao's physical qualities were only at the level of Soul Douluo and Title Douluo, so how could he be so resilient?

impossible?

What Du Bu Si didn't know was that Huo Yuhao's aquatic breathing technique had been pushed to its limit. His blood and qi surged, greedily absorbing the aquatic energy to maintain a balance between himself and the external pressure, which continuously reduced the pressure Huo Yuhao had to bear.

At this depth, relying solely on the body for support, even the circulation of soul power and blood is extremely difficult. Even Huo Yuhao, without his aquatic breathing technique, would not have been able to dive to a depth of a thousand feet.

That little bastard!

Seeing Huo Yuhao still handling things with ease, Du Busi became ruthless and suddenly pulled Huo Yuhao to continue diving.

The boast has already been made, and it's impossible not to deliver. Today, one of them, either him or Huo Yuhao, has to give in first!

Pulling Huo Yuhao down again, even Poison Undying's descent speed slowed down this time.

One thousand one hundred feet.

One thousand two hundred feet.

One thousand three hundred and fifty feet.

"boom--------"

A terrifying aura erupted from the depths of the ocean, so terrifying that Huo Yuhao almost choked to death in the sea!

Yes, he gritted his teeth and fought desperately with Huo Yuhao to a depth of more than 4,000 meters underwater, where he could vaguely see the Poison Undying on the seabed, breaking through the Limit Douluo level.
