Douluo Continent: The Spirit-Eyed Detective Huo Yuhao

He needs to hone his ability to manipulate other people's souls; only in this way can his research continue.

Finally, Huo Yuhao forced his soul back in.

"Quickly, check how his brain is functioning!"

"Everything is normal!"

"Success!"

Tianmeng cheered as he lay on a pile of discarded elders. As a master of mental strength, he knew how difficult it was for Huo Yuhao to have achieved such a level of skill.

"The ability to arbitrarily capture other people's souls... That's truly impressive." Hyotei also showed admiration. She was no longer the Hyotei who knew nothing when she first merged with the other. By hanging out with these three academic guys, she had also learned a lot.

Cultivation techniques, science, magic... each one made her feel like she had wasted so many millennia of her life.

"Haha, not only can I restrain people, but I can also control, modify, and manipulate other people's brains and memories at will. I believe this technology will be able to achieve this in the future, ahahaha!" Huo Yuhao laughed wildly.

Electrolux: "Heh heh heh..."

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm: "Hehehe..."

The two people and the insect, engrossed in their research, all threw their heads back and burst into laughter.

"These three guys..." Hyotei covered her ears and watched speechlessly from the side. She was also somewhat unwilling, as she was not yet capable of participating in the research of these three people.

Chapter 41 Soul Leaving the Body, Scorpion Tiger Douluo

"That's what the soul is."

Huo Yuhao raised his hand and pulled out Yuan Cheng's soul. After using up nearly ten elders, he had mastered this step very well.

"Connected to the brain, memories can be accessed through the soul."

Huo Yuhao transformed his mental energy into surgical knives and scissors, which he used to invade Yuan Cheng's soul and extract fragments of his memories.

This is precisely the "soul-searching technique".

"Since I can't speak because of the restriction, I can just use soul search."

The technology isn't mature enough yet, and there aren't any good equipment or environments. After searching the soul, Yuan Cheng will probably go crazy because his soul will be messed up.

"Let me see, childhood memories are unnecessary... I've got it. After the age of twenty-eight, I encountered a powerful evil soul master from a certain organization, and began to exchange money and cultivation resources through trafficking, thereby cultivating to the Soul King level and establishing my own sect."

The Evil Soul Master organization is very mysterious, never revealing any information and even imposing restrictions on its subordinates. However, judging from their words and actions, it is a cult that worships the so-called Holy Emperor.

They meet once a month to deliver the 'goods,' but in special circumstances, they will be summoned for discipline and reminders.

Huo Yuhao lightly touched his brow with his finger, pondering, "The Evil Soul Master organization, the Holy Emperor... is it the same as Shrek Academy...?"

He then read on.

"We just held a gathering not long ago, and this time a very important person has arrived, whose cultivation level is... a Title Douluo!"

Huo Yuhao's expression changed slightly. What was a Title Douluo-level evil soul master doing in this barren north?

"Their 'delivery' time is approaching. If they discover that the Ice Ape Sect has been wiped out, will Warm Stove Village come knocking on their door?"

Huo Yuhao analyzed the risk of Nuanlu Village being targeted by evil spirit masters.

"The chances are slim, but there are. Warm Stove Village and Ice Ape Sect are too close. Damn it, this place can't withstand the turmoil of a Title Douluo."

With a snort, Huo Yuhao tossed the drooling, dazed Yuan Cheng aside.

"No matter what, I have to investigate this thoroughly, otherwise I won't be able to take the initiative, and I won't feel at ease."

After finishing the experiment, Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to exit the state of extreme thinking.

Suddenly, he sat in the chair and began to daydream.

"Huh? What's this, Yuhao?" Tianmeng Bingcan asked in surprise.

"Enlightenment... Not only enlightenment, but also a breakthrough in cultivation." Ice Emperor was shocked. How long had it been? Although human cultivation was indeed much easier than that of soul beasts, this was too fast.

"His research into the brain and soul gave him a deeper understanding of his own soul and spiritual power, so this epiphany is not surprising," Electrox said with satisfaction.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao looked at the rapidly spinning thoughts in his mind, lost in thought.

“Rotation…condensation…right, I observed the two soul cores in Elder Mu’s body before, this is how soul cores are born, right?”

Huo Yuhao channeled his level 30 soul power and the blood and qi of his powerful body, using these two as a foundation to propel his immense spiritual power to rotate and condense within his sea of ​​spirit.

A perfectly round, azure-blue sphere formed in the sea of ​​consciousness, radiating a rich spiritual energy.

"This is... a soul core? It was generated based on my Spirit Eye Martial Soul and spiritual power, but it's so small, only the size of a grain of rice, and very round. It's quite different from Elder Mu's."

"The location is also strange, as it is concentrated in the upper dantian where the sea of ​​spirit is located, rather than the lower dantian where the soul core is usually located."

Huo Yuhao examined his body.

"That's right. The upper dantian stores the spirit, the middle dantian stores the essence of the body, and the lower dantian stores the soul power. My strongest power is still the spiritual power, so I first condensed the core in the sea of ​​spirit."

Huo Yuhao clearly felt that with that core as the driving force, his mental strength and psychic power had been greatly enhanced, and seemed to have an inexhaustible source.

"Alright, upgrade complete."

Huo Yuhao stood up. After leveling up, he felt light and agile, as if he were about to float away.

"No, it's really floating!"

Huo Yuhao quickly regained his composure and stopped in mid-air.

"I can fly? Wait a minute..."

Huo Yuhao looked down and saw himself.

The body is gone.

"Oh no, I've killed myself through cultivation," Huo Yuhao joked, then shook his head. He knew as soon as he saw his physical body that it was just his soul leaving his body.

He was in a similar state to Tianmeng Yi and the others, but his physical body was still intact, so he could go back at any time.

"Congratulations, Yuhao. Your soul has become so powerful that you can now travel outside your body," Electrolux said, looking at Huo Yuhao in his ghostly state.

Ordinary people cannot see Huo Yuhao in his current state, but the three people here are all top-tier experts, so they can naturally see him.

"Out-of-body travel, another very interesting ability." Huo Yuhao crawled back into his body. "But the strength is still not enough, it's a bit erratic, and I can only hide in the shadows."

“Your feeling is correct. Right now, you are only at the level of a soul wandering at night, just like those ordinary ghosts. You are extremely easy to dissipate when exposed to sunlight, and it is best for you to possess other people or things,” Electrox explained. “When you can travel thousands of miles a day without fear of sunlight, that is close to the level of what I can call ‘divine consciousness’.”

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, looking forward to that level.

"The Spirit Eye is also undergoing a transformation. Unlike the second awakening recorded in the records, it is a slow and stable evolution." Huo Yuhao's eyes shone with spiritual light, and the size of the Spirit Eye's pupils changed according to his will. He could also freely change the precision and distance of things in his field of vision.

"Let's leave it at that for now."

Huo Yuhao calmed himself down. He wanted to break through to level 30 so he could summon the soul rings of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm or the Ice Emperor at any time, but that wasn't what he wanted right now.

Soul rings... perhaps we can be more free to do as we please.

Huo Yuhao thought to himself.

………………

The border of the Heavenly Soul Empire

This is the town closest to the far north.

Wuyun Douluo knocked on a door.

"It's truly lamentable that the mighty Scorpion Tiger Douluo is now forced to live in such a remote little town," Wu Yun said loudly, though he used telepathy, so only those inside the house could hear him.

The door opened, and a thin old man appeared. He had dark skin and two eyebrows that were different heights, making him quite distinctive.

"You've mistaken me for someone else. The person you're looking for isn't here." The thin old man's voice was surprisingly deep, and he seemed to be trying to drive away the dark clouds as he spoke.

"I don't think I've made a mistake." Wu Yun chuckled. "Scorpion Tiger Douluo, don't be in such a hurry to kick me out. I'm here to sincerely invite you to join my sect and do great things together. All evil spirits under heaven are one family. If you come..."

The door slammed shut, interrupting Wuyun's words.

"They're crazy. They've already said they've mistaken you for someone else, yet they're still preaching. I don't know where this rabble of a sect came from." The old man's deep, resonant voice came from inside the door.

"you!"

Dark Cloud's expression shifted between anger and rage, then he exhaled, forcefully suppressing his fury.

"Scorpion Tiger Douluo, as long as you join my sect, you will immediately be a revered figure. I understand your situation, being misunderstood, hunted down, and forced to hide in the shadows, afraid to show your face. Join me, and all of this will be over once you join my Holy Sect."

no respond.

"I will come back to you, and I hope you will change your mind next time." Wuyun turned around and disappeared into the darkness.

Inside the room, the thin old man brewed himself a cup of tea. His brows were furrowed, and the wrinkles on his forehead formed a black "king" character.

"An organization belonging to evil spirit masters..."

Chapter 42 The Sick Martial Soul, Indiscriminate Shooting

"What are these?"

Bai Zhen looked at the several unfamiliar large machines in front of her.

"A textile machine, for weaving clothes faster. An electric soul-guided drill, for mining. An electric soul-guided snow sled, for traveling quickly on snow, faster than the current pack animals." Huo Yuhao slapped the car door.

“I will teach you the production method right away, and then have the village factory produce it and put it into use.”

“Yes, Master…” Bai Zhen immediately agreed, then hesitated, unsure of what to say next.

"Say what you want to say," Huo Yuhao said.

"They are the children we rescued earlier; they seem to have a problem."

"What's the problem?" Huo Yuhao frowned. What could be wrong with a group of abducted children?

“Several of the children are very emotionally unstable. At first, we thought it was just because they were not used to being away from home and in an unfamiliar environment. But this morning, I saw with my own eyes that the villager who was responsible for taking care of them was bitten. The martial spirit of the child who bit them was also emitting an uncomfortable aura,” Bai Zhen reported.

Huo Yuhao was increasingly shocked as he listened, and he had already figured out the reason.

"Take me there immediately."

………………

“Evil martial spirit, evil martial spirit, evil martial spirit…” Huo Yuhao examined the martial spirits of the children.

As he expected, one-sixth of the children he rescued were evil martial spirits.
