Douluo Continent: The Spirit-Eyed Detective Huo Yuhao

Even when she was forced to learn magic from Elder Yi, her learning ability was praised by Elder Yi as promising.

"Then let's begin the fusion." Ice Emperor looked at Huo Yuhao and, after sensing his powerful blood and energy, said, "You've picked a human with decent potential."

"Hello, welcome to the Hyotei Academy," Huo Yuhao greeted politely.

"Let's focus on getting this fusion done first, human kid."

Next, Bingdi and Tianmeng worked together to seal a portion of the power, and then began to merge it into Huo Yuhao's body.

pain.

This is the most intuitive feeling.

The cold and pain pierced every cell of my body like needles.

But Huo Yuhao grinned instead. He stood still, eyes wide open, carefully observing the fusion process.

"Haha, this is a rare sight indeed! The fusion of martial souls, the fusion of soul bones, the birth of soul rings, the transformation of the body—I need to observe this carefully, I can't faint." Huo Yuhao gritted his teeth, hissing in pain as he kept his eyes fixed on the fusion process using his mental detection.

"What...what exactly is this?!" The Ice Emperor, who had entered the Sea of ​​Spirit, was shocked by the intensely spinning sparks in Huo Yuhao's mind, which seemed to contain a massive and terrifying flow of information.

………………

One night later.

Even in the freezing cold, it's impossible to distinguish between day and night.

"readily!"

Huo Yuhao clenched his fists against the wind and snow, and the sharp snowflakes obediently dispersed to both sides when they touched his body.

He is no longer afraid of the cold.

The boy's physique did not change significantly, except that a huge scorpion-shaped totem appeared on his back. The totem almost covered his entire back, with six long legs encircling his ribs, a pair of pincers on his shoulders, and a long tail running down his spine.

"Now I'm a rune warrior..." Huo Yuhao pouted, thinking that while the totem was impressive, it overshadowed his perfect physique.

After thinking for a moment, he manipulated his physical body to conceal the totem.

"Is this what soul bone fusion is?" Huo Yuhao touched his spine and ribs. "It's not about replacing the original bones, but about refining the energy of the soul beast's bones into one's own bones. A person should be able to condense it on their own, right?"

"Yes, humans can indeed do it, but it takes a very long time for them to condense themselves. While a soul beast can manage it with its lifespan, even a Title Douluo is only a little over two hundred years old, far too short a lifespan."

Huo Yuhao realized the problem: the lifespan of Soul Masters was too strange. Despite being stronger than Soul Beasts that could live for tens of thousands of years, they could only live for two hundred years.

"And then there are spirit rings. Spirit rings are a physical manifestation of spirit skills and energy synthesis. In other words, if I can create my own spirit skills and condense enough energy, I can also create spirit rings? I'll try it when I get back."

Looking at the floating red spirit ring of the Ice Emperor, Huo Yuhao felt a surge of confidence. Once he understood the essence of these magics, spirit skills, and magic arrays, he could create as many skills as he needed.

A piece of ice formed in his hand, constantly changing under his control, sometimes becoming a knife, sometimes a hammer, and then a drill, a scorpion, a silkworm...

"I won't have to worry about breaking tools anymore. Using ice simulation is so convenient," Huo Yuhao said happily. Compared to solidified soul skills, he was more interested in developing this new ability.

"This kid, he's only just fused with ice manipulation and he's already so skilled!" Hyotei has been shocked countless times.

At this moment, she transformed into human form, just like Tianmeng, with long emerald green hair and sharp green eyes like solid ice, exuding imperial majesty.

"Hehe, Yuhao is very smart, much smarter than all of us. My judgment is never wrong," Tianmeng said proudly.

"Hmph, let's ignore that for now. Who is he?" Hyotei looked warily at Elder I, who was smiling kindly to the side.

"Little scorpion, don't be afraid, sit wherever you like." Electrolux chuckled, pleased with Huo Yuhao's progress.

"Hmph, why would I be afraid of you?" The Ice Emperor snorted coldly.

Despite saying that, she dared not let her guard down for a moment. The powerful aura emanating from this old man was comparable to, or even surpassed, that of the Snow Emperor.

"Alright, alright, Bingbing, don't be afraid. He's just a poor old man with amnesia," Tianmeng Bingcan comforted her from the side.

"I've already said it, when have I ever been afraid!" Without turning her head, the Ice Emperor raised her hand and punched Tianmeng, sending her flying backward.

"I feel like Tianmeng has some masochistic tendencies."

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly and stopped paying attention to the Sea of ​​Spirit. Fortunately, he was a pure S.

Strange pieces of knowledge are popping into my head again.

He looked around at the vast expanse of white and muttered to himself, "I took ten days off, and everything was resolved in three days. What should I do next?"

How about... taking a trip in the Heavenly Soul Empire first?

Oh right, we need to set up a teleportation array here first, and choosing a suitable location will take quite a bit of work.

Chapter 19 Electric Soul Guided Mini Heater

This place is located at the intersection of the Heavenly Soul Empire, the Fighting Spirit Empire, and the far north.

This place is remote and has a complex terrain. It is bitterly cold all day long. Heavenly spirits do not care about it, and fighting spirits do not take it in. Only the wind and snow of the far north often visit.

The people here fight against the wind and snow, survive through their own efforts, and stand independent from the world through their faith in the ice god, establishing human settlements the size of several villages, resembling a secluded snow paradise.

But human strength has its limits; even a sudden heavy snowfall in the far north could cost them their lives.

"This place is good. Let's hide the teleportation array here." After fusing with the Ice Emperor Martial Soul, Huo Yuhao's perception in the snow was greatly enhanced, and he found this place.

"The strongest among them is only a level 20+ Soul Master. It's really remarkable that they were able to survive in such a harsh environment."

Although he himself is only level 20.

Huo Yuhao released his mental probe and quickly took in the general situation of the place.

"It's been snowing heavily for seven days straight..."

"By the Ice God, please cease your anger."

"Mom, will we freeze to death?"

A cacophony of sounds carried by the wind reached Huo Yuhao's ears. He raised his hand and waved it, unleashing the overwhelming power of the Ice Emperor. The heavy snow in the sky immediately stopped falling, and the fierce storm parted and dispersed to both sides, leaving behind a peaceful mountain village.

If you look closely at him, you will find that Huo Yuhao's eyes are now deep blue on the left and emerald green on the right, flashing with a terrifying and fierce light, like solid ice that cannot be touched by time.

"It's stopped...it's stopped! The heavy snow has stopped!" the villagers cheered.

There was only one exception: a white-haired girl who was also the most powerful Soul Master here.

Her name is Bai Zhen, and she is the village chief of this remote village.

Bai Zhen stared intently at the black-robed man in the distance, sensing a terrifying and suffocating aura emanating from him.

"He did it! He stopped that deadly snowstorm with a flick of his wrist!"

The man in black robes was, of course, the disguise Huo Yuhao created using his simulated soul skill.

"Thank you for saving us, senior. May I ask your name and what brings you to my Ice God Village? If you have any requests, we will do our best to fulfill them." Regardless of who he was, the fact remained that he had saved the lives of everyone in the village, including herself, so Bai Zhen stepped forward to express her gratitude.

Unlike the pure innocence and ignorance seen by others in the village, she had a certain level of education. She was one of the few people in the village who had ventured out to the Heavenly Soul Empire and studied there, and her eyes revealed a clearly complex range of thoughts.

Unfortunately, her martial soul was just an ordinary little ice block, which was only enough for her to barely reach the current level of a Great Soul Master, and it was difficult for her to make any further progress.

"May I come in?"

Huo Yuhao asked, pointing to the house behind Bai Zhen.

"Of course, please come in." Bai Zhen was taken aback when she heard that such a powerful person would actually speak to her.

Inside the house,

A dozen or so elderly people and children huddled together for warmth, but it was no use.

The flimsy house offered little protection from the cold, and the stored firewood was nearly depleted due to the continuous heavy snowfall.

"I'm sorry to have troubled you, their house collapsed under the weight of the snow, so we had no choice but to let them squeeze in here..." Bai Zhen sighed. If it weren't for this person's help, they would probably have frozen to death here together.

Even now, there may be people who die before they can recover.

Huo Yuhao didn't speak. He took out some parts from his storage soul tool, used ice to create tools, and began to assemble them.

"This is... a soul tool?" Bai Zhen only knew some basic concepts about soul tools; she had never had the chance to see one, not even the most basic one.

Soon, Huo Yuhao completed his work: a small electric soul-guided heater.

Huo Yuhao pressed the button, and the cylindrical lantern-shaped heater emitted a red light, from which a warm current spread throughout the room, hundreds of times stronger than the flickering flame in the stove.

"This...I..." Bai Zhen was somewhat incoherent. This was the first time she had seen such a thing, and there wasn't much soul power fluctuation when it was made, which meant...she could learn how to make it too.

She knelt down in front of Huo Yuhao with a thud, disregarding his suspicious appearance with his face covered by a black robe.

"Senior, I want to learn about soul tools."

"Okay."

Huo Yuhao laughed, his voice sounding somewhat mysterious under the cover of his black robe.

………………

On this day, Ice God Village was renamed Warm Stove Village, and the flag at the village entrance was changed to a simple image of a small warm stove.

The first thing Huo Yuhao did was to use the parts he carried to make a small electric soul-guided heater for every household in the village.

Now, the people of Nuanlu Village can all get through the cold days by holding a small stove.

the next day,

Huo Yuhao called himself "Bingtian Huodou," and his fame spread far and wide in this secluded snowy paradise, attracting even some villages in the surrounding area.

On the third day,

In the center of the village, he built his own house, not to live there, but to draw his teleportation array inside.

The villagers spontaneously guarded his house, preventing anyone from trespassing, just as they would guard an abandoned temple once used to worship the Ice God.

…………

"Master, this is snow yak milk and snow pork from the village. Please try some."

Inside the small house covered with spatial runes, Bai Zhen served Huo Yuhao lunch.

"Hmm." Huo Yuhao nodded, then asked, "How's your learning going?"

“If it’s just about making an electric soul-conducting heater, I can make it using Master’s blueprints,” Bai Zhen said.

"You work very hard and learn very quickly," Huo Yuhao said. This wasn't just a consolation; although he had simplified many of the original complex procedures, Bai Zhen's ability to learn so quickly was indeed a testament to her talent.

"Unfortunately, my cultivation level..." Bai Zhen knew that with her martial soul, she would probably only reach level 20 or so in this lifetime, and her cultivation level could not improve, so she could not make higher-level electric soul guides.

"Yes, it's possible." Huo Yuhao said calmly. "As long as my experiment succeeds, your cultivation level will improve. Even if it fails, the creation of the electric soul guide device does not require cultivation level, as I have mentioned before."
