Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 820 Fishing Rod Training Method (6K)

At this moment, Xiaobai arrived as promised.

"Hmph, human, come on up, I'll take you to Stormy Cliff."

Xiao Bai gently swayed its body: "Aside from those two and their companions, you are the first person in all these years who can ride on my back."

"If it weren't for the fact that your healing power is so comfortable, and the younger generation in my tribe all like it, I wouldn't let you ride on me."

Little White grumbled somewhat unhappily.

Huo Yuhao didn't stand on ceremony and grabbed Xiaobai's fin, sitting directly on it.

Soon, Huo Yuhao understood why the First Sea God had chosen the Demon Soul Great White Shark as his mount when ruling the four seas—its speed was incredible!

Huo Yuhao subconsciously squeezed his legs together, half-lying on Xiaobai's body, feeling the scene before him changing rapidly.

The person flies through the water, while the soul chases after them—this is the speed of Xiaobai as a top-tier sea spirit beast.

Poison Undying even surfaced directly and flew through the air to keep up with Little White's speed; he couldn't catch up with Little White in the water.

Where is Jingtao Cliff?

Huo Yuhao lay on Xiaobai's smooth back, his mental energy fluctuating slightly.

"The Cliff of Surging Waves is the place where Lord Poseidon, the god of the sea, once tempered his body. Even one of the divine tests he left behind was made in imitation of this experience."

"The former Lord Poseidon hoped to make his body stronger than that of a soul beast, so he chose to temper himself with the power of heaven and earth. Although he ultimately failed to make his body stronger than that of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, he was indeed no less than that of an ordinary 100,000-year-old soul beast."

"Lord Poseidon is still too greedy. The Deep Sea Demon Whale King was once the ruler of the ocean. Its physical strength even surpasses that of the Beast God Di Tian on land. Its endless power and enormous defense are the foundation of the Demon Whale King's survival."

"To achieve a physical strength comparable to that of a 100,000-year-old soul beast while still at the human level, Lord Poseidon had already reached a truly unprecedented level."

"Even Tang San later only surpassed Lord Poseidon in terms of power level. In terms of physical strength before becoming a god, he was far inferior."

Xiao Bai's spiritual energy fluctuations slowly emanated out. After traveling for a while, Xiao Bai also slowed down and brought Huo Yuhao to the surface of the sea.

Almost the instant he surfaced, Huo Yuhao heard a deafening roar. Although he couldn't see it yet, the enormous rumble was like thunder rolling across the sky, growing stronger and stronger with each boom, deafeningly loud.

Huo Yuhao looked up and saw a mountain peak several hundred meters high in front of him. The mountain was entirely formed of rock, barren of any vegetation, and completely black.

With Xiaobai's instruction, Huo Yuhao lightly rose up, took a few steps in mid-air, and quickly climbed to the top of the mountain.

Before him lay a recessed valley, beyond which stretched the boundless sea.

The valley recesses into the island from the shore, extending for several hundred meters. He is surrounded by black rock beneath his feet, its hardness comparable to steel, evident even in its sheer presence.

Although the ocean was vast and magnificent, he had seen it before. What truly astonished him was the spectacular sight of the waves crashing against the shore in this valley.

For some reason, the calm seawater outside the mountain peaks immediately turned into raging waves once it entered this valley, with the highest waves reaching hundreds of meters high, crashing heavily against the rocks at his feet.

That's where the name "Surging Waves Cliff" comes from. The magnificent and vast power of nature instills a sense of awe and fear in everyone. Compared to the sea, he felt so insignificant.

Poison Undying also landed at this time. The water here was turbulent and not suitable for stopping. Even fishermen probably wouldn't visit, and sea spirit beasts wouldn't want to come here either.

It was truly unexpected that the first sea god could find such a good place to hone himself.

This sunken valley was probably created by the impact of ocean waves.

Through constant impact, the rocks are compressed. Because they have been pounded for a long time, the rocks here are not only as hard as steel, but also extremely dense. The weight of the same volume is almost comparable to that of silver.

"Yuhao, I've been thinking about it again. Maybe we can help you complete your body tempering task without the Silver Pillar."

Poison Immortal's eyes rolled: "The reason why Xiao Bai said we need the Silver Pillar is simply because the waves here are too turbulent. We need to tie you to the Silver Pillar so that you can be safely washed by the waves."

"But," Du Bu Si said, then suddenly stopped and took out a five-meter-long, spiral steel rod as thick as a baby's arm.

Huo Yuhao felt a chill run down his spine. At that moment, he and Du Busi were instantly in sync, and he guessed what Du Busi wanted to do.

"Don't worry, if this method works, you'll be dead here, Aotian, and all your fellow disciples in the academy won't escape either. They'll suffer with you. Don't worry."

Poisonous Immortal grinned, and the chill emanating from him made even Little White, who had already transformed into human form, shiver. She guessed what Poisonous Immortal was planning to do.

"We certainly don't have a Deep Sea Silver Pillar, as our Body Sect isn't as wealthy as you, but we do have some strength."

Poison Undying chuckled and flicked the spiral steel rod in his hand. At the end of the rod was a string of iron chains, and at the end of the chains was a steel hook weighing several hundred kilograms.

With a flick of Du Busi's wrist, the iron chain seemed to come alive, binding Huo Yuhao tightly.

"Don't worry, Yuhao. This fine steel spiral rod is the treasured fishing rod my brother used to catch sea spirit beasts. It's a genuine level eight soul tool, capable of pulling up even sea spirit beasts weighing tens of thousands of pounds."

After saying that, Du Busi flicked the steel spiral rod in his hand, throwing Huo Yuhao like bait into the bottom of Jingtao Cliff.

"Don't--"

Before Huo Yuhao could refuse, Du Busi flung him down with a fishing rod, and a voice slowly drifted over: "Yuhao, don't worry, someone will come to keep you company in a few days. Using the Heavy Silver Pillar to train your body is expensive, not to mention the effect might not be as good as my fishing rod training method."

"I've made up my mind. This fishing rod training method will be the secret body-forging technique of my Body Sect, which is not to be passed down to anyone else. You'd better be happy about it."

Hearing the old man's words, Huo Yuhao was so angry that he wanted to fly up and fight the old man to the death right now. He now understood why many of the Body Sect's secret techniques were so rough and unconventional.

Exactly. It would be strange if a forging method that was just slapped on the forehead could be refined. Only Soul Masters with Body Spirits are generally durable; otherwise, they would have been tormented to death by the successive sect leaders of the Body Sect long ago.
