Chapter 39: Devouring the Soul Bone of Bie Tianying with 44 Water Dragon Bullets.
After leaving the dean's office, Huo Yuhao did not go straight back to his dormitory.
He avoided the crowd and went to a secluded cave behind the academy. After confirming that no one was around, a red light flashed in his right eye.
"Divine Might".
The spatial vortex twisted and swallowed his figure.
...
Divine Power Space.
Huo Yuhao took out the two ten-thousand-year-old soul bones that Yan Shaozhe had given away during his massive blood loss.
As soon as the seal on the soul tool was broken, an aura of icy cold and thunderous storm spread out.
Huo Yuhao had a sudden thought.
Rumble!
Several purple chakra chains shot out from his right hand, like hungry tentacles, instantly wrapping around the two precious ten-thousand-year-old soul bones.
He instantly absorbed the two soul bones into his body and stood before the demonic statue of the Outer Path.
Click! Click!
A tooth-grinding chewing sound rang out.
That incredibly hard, ten-thousand-year-old soul bone, which even a Soul Emperor could hardly destroy, was like a crisp biscuit in the mouth of the Outer Path Demon Statue, chewed up and swallowed in just a few bites.
Huo Yuhao watched this scene expressionlessly.
really.
The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path can devour soul bones.
This is a good thing.
I can't possibly absorb these two mere ten-thousand-year-old trash soul bones; that would only take up my precious soul bone slot.
As the two soul bones were completely digested, Huo Yuhao stared intently at the eight tightly closed eyes of the demon statue.
Buzz!
The golem's second eyelid trembled violently, as if a crack had opened, revealing a strange light.
But it only lasted for a moment before the eyelids closed weakly again.
"Isn't that enough?"
Huo Yuhao wasn't too surprised.
After all, the opening of the first eye involved devouring the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, which had a cultivation of a million years.
Although these two ancient soul bones are of pure energy, their magnitude is still far inferior.
However, even though the eyes were not open, the feedback came in real time.
A cool and tingling heat flowed back into Huo Yuhao's body through the connection of the golem.
He felt his water-attribute chakra become deeper and colder, while his lightning-attribute chakra became more violent and active.
Can absorbing soul bones also nourish oneself?
This is much faster than refining pills normally!
Huo Yuhao clenched his fist, and blue-purple arcs of electricity danced at his fingertips.
The power of Water Release and Lightning Release has increased by at least one level.
Since that's the case... it's time to train in those more powerful ninjutsu.
...
In the following days, Huo Yuhao continued his grueling training regimen.
His load has increased to an astonishing 1,000 jin.
The training of various ninjutsu techniques also progressed rapidly.
In particular, its water and lightning attributes have been enhanced.
Regarding Lightning Release, he has already figured out the principle of "Chidori" and is trying to incorporate Lightning Nature Transformation into it, developing Sasuke's signature ninjutsu such as "Chidori Sharp Spear" and "Chidori Stream".
However, a small incident still occurred amidst this monotonous training.
That afternoon, at the training ground.
Huo Yuhao was standing on the water, practicing the transformation of water attributes, the lake water beneath his feet rising and falling with his breath.
"Found you! Huo Yuhao!"
A sharp shout shattered the silence.
Huo Yuhao turned around and saw Wang Dong walking towards him menacingly.
"What is it?" he asked casually.
Wang Dong took a deep breath, looking at the man in front of him who was both lovable and hateful, his eyes resolute:
"Although I know there may be some gaps between us, I don't want to always be the one who can only watch your back."
"I want to know... just how much better are you than me!"
Buzz!
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Dong directly activated his martial spirit.
The magnificent Goddess of Light butterfly spread its wings and flew into the air, looking down at Huo Yuhao.
Wang Dong thought to himself:
Perhaps... he prefers a powerful female soul master who can fight alongside him?
If I prove that I am not weak, and that I am stronger than him, will he change his opinion of me?
I am also a top genius with twin martial souls, and the young master of the Clear Sky Sect!
Even if there is a gap now, the future is uncertain!
On the water.
Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Dong, who was so self-satisfied and seemed to be under the illusion of "Betsuka Sakura," and couldn't help but twitch his lips.
Are you challenging me?
Perfect timing! I just learned that technique, but haven't had anyone try it on yet.
"Can."
Huo Yuhao casually agreed, his nonchalant attitude as if he were agreeing to play house with a child.
"Be careful."
Wang Dong gave a reminder, and his second spirit ring lit up behind him.
"Second Soul Skill: Butterfly God's Light!"
Countless golden orbs of light gathered around her, poised to strike.
However.
Just as she was about to launch her attack, she saw Huo Yuhao move.
Huo Yuhao did not dodge, but stood on the water, his hands turning into a blur of afterimages.
Zi-Chou-Shen-Wu-Chen-Hai-You-Chou-Wu-Xu...
The series of complex and dazzling handprints were so fast that only afterimages could be seen.
Wang Dong suddenly felt a little panicked.
When she was with Huo Yuhao before, she saw that he would form hand seals before using those strange elemental "soul skills".
But usually it's only three or four, at most five or six.
But this time...
Isn't this a bit too much?!
A strong sense of foreboding welled up inside me.
"Never mind! Let's go!"
Wang Dong gritted his teeth and manipulated the sky full of butterfly god light to bombard Huo Yuhao.
Just then.
Huo Yuhao's forty-fourth seal was formed.
Yin.
He took a deep breath, and a large portion of his chakra was instantly drained.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
Rumble—!!!
The once calm lake surface instantly erupted.
A massive, ferocious water dragon, over ten meters long, roared into the sky with a deafening roar.
Before this giant dragon, Wang Dong's seemingly magnificent Butterfly God Light appeared as insignificant as a firefly.
"What is that...?"
Wang Dong hadn't finished speaking.
roar!
The water dragon opened its massive maw and swallowed all the golden orbs of light in one gulp. With its momentum undiminished, it slammed into Wang Dong, who was in mid-air.
"ah--!!"
A scream.
Wang Dong was like a butterfly with wet wings, instantly blasted away by the water jet, tracing a pathetic arc in the air before finally slamming hard against a large tree on the shore with a "thud".
The tree shook violently, and leaves flew everywhere.
Wang Dong slipped and fell to the ground, soaking wet, his hair disheveled, completely stunned by the blow.
Huo Yuhao stood on the gradually calming water, looking at Wang Dong who was soaked to the bone, and slowly withdrew his hand.
"Did you see that?"
His voice remained cold and indifferent, a chilling blow to the soul.
"The gap between you and me..."
"You'll spend your whole life chasing after it!"
...
After this interlude, the remaining training proceeded as usual.
Soon, Shrek Academy's annual holiday arrived.
This also means that Huo Yuhao's assessment of Tang Ya within the Akatsuki organization has officially begun.
early morning.
Huo Yuhao did not say goodbye to anyone.
He changed into a black robe, carried a simple bag, and slowly walked out of the magnificent gates of Shrek City.
After he left Shrek City, in a dense forest.
Several pairs of cold eyes were staring intently at the lonely figure through the gaps in the leaves.
Those were several Soul Masters dressed in black robes, their auras concealed.
The leader held a portrait in his hand, compared it to the image, and spoke in a hoarse voice:
"Target confirmed."
"It's him, Huo Yuhao. A first-year student at Shrek Academy."
A man in black robes standing nearby curled his lip in disdain:
"A mere one-ring Soul Master?"
"I really don't know what the young master was thinking. To kill such ants, he actually had to use several of us? And even asked you, the captain who is a Soul Emperor, to come?"
"This is like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut."
The leading Soul Emperor coldly put away the portrait, a glint of cold light flashing in his eyes:
"Shut up."
"Whether he's from the first ring road or an ordinary person."
"We will follow the young master's arrangements."
"Remember, the young master said he wanted to make him wish he were dead."
"Let's do it!"
