Douluo Continent: Angel Saint Huo Yuhao

Chapter 63 Holy Guidance... Snow Lotus?
In the previous sacrifice, the Snow Emperor infused most of her essence into the snow lotus and stored it there.

This led to some changes in the soul rings resulting from the sacrifice.

On the other hand, it also brought Huo Yuhao this energy body rooted in his body.

This snow lotus will gradually emit energy as his cultivation progresses, further accelerating his cultivation speed while also improving his physique.

When Huo Yuhao has fully digested it, his physical strength will reach a level that no other expert of the same level can match.

Of course.

With Huo Yuhao's current strength, he would never dare to mess with this terrifying energy.

If something goes wrong, not only him, but Shrek himself would probably be mostly obliterated by the explosion.

What he really cared about was the energy that the snow lotus slowly released during its cultivation.

"It seems... quite suitable as a source of power?"

Huo Yuhao glanced at the total amount of soul power in his body, which far exceeded the previous amount. He carefully interrupted the Xuan Tian Gong and collected the soul power in his meridians, storing it in his dantian.

Subsequently.

He manipulated the soul power to slowly rotate.

This time, although the physical pain was slightly less because there was not much soul power left in the meridians, the mental pressure suddenly increased.

"Soul power... why has it become so heavy?"

Huo Yuhao's eyes were filled with surprise and uncertainty.

Just by struggling to get his soul power circulating, cold sweat began to seep from his forehead, and the water level in his spiritual sea dropped rapidly amidst the churning waves.

He usually uses the Spirit Eye Martial Soul, and his Soul Skills mainly consume mental energy, so he doesn't feel that his Soul Power has changed too much.

But now, upon trying it, he discovered that the soul power within his body was as heavy as a millstone.

It almost didn't get off the ground.

"Hmph—how can soul power with ultimate attributes be equated with ordinary soul power?"

The Snow Empress in his mind answered his question: "The reason why a Soul Master with an ultimate Martial Soul is so powerful is not only due to the quality of the Martial Soul and the attribute bonus, but also due to the quality of the Soul Power."

"Although the quality of soul power in a normal soul master's body will slowly increase as the ring number increases, a significant qualitative change will only occur when they reach the seventh ring or above!"

"—The ultimate attributes will lower this threshold to the third ring."

"The advantage of this trait is that top-tier attribute Soul Masters maintain an extremely strong ability to advance beyond their level when they are above the second ring but below the ninth ring."

"The price is that it is extremely difficult to improve between the third and seventh rings. It would probably take two or three times the effort of an ordinary person to catch up with them in terms of soul power level."

Has the Three Rings undergone a qualitative change?

Huo Yuhao gritted his teeth: "But I'm still a second-ring member, aren't I?"

"Even the Second Ring Road would be at the level of the Fourth or Fifth Ring Road for an average person..."

The Snow Empress shook her head: "Besides, you are not an ordinary extreme attribute. Under the effect of your strange martial soul, the numerous ice attribute powers have perfectly fused together, becoming extremely pure, and your soul power has also become more refined."

Even she wasn't sure of Huo Yuhao's current combat strength before he made a move.

It's simply because this guy's soul power quality is exceptionally high.

He's gotten to the point where while others are having snowball fights, he's just throwing ice cubes around.

"Does that mean I'm going to be stuck with the problem of my cultivation speed slowing down?"

Huo Yuhao was speechless for a moment, finally understanding why, despite having received soul rings from the Ice and Snow Emperors and the Ice Silkworm, his soul power level had not yet reached level twenty-seven.

But...

What he's solving now is the problem of spiritual cultivation!

His gaze sharpened, and his spiritual power surged forth, propelling the thick, icy soul power within his body to spin faster. As the speed gradually increased, the vortex began to collapse as it spun, condensing into a star-like shape.

Compared to the nebula-like vortex that had gathered before, the vortex now lying quietly rotating in the dantian was significantly more stable and closer to a perfect manifold.

Within that vortex, countless scattered stars could be faintly seen, radiating an icy blue light as they moved.

It resembles a real, dazzling galaxy.

"Huh...huh..."

Huo Yuhao, who had almost exhausted 70% of his spiritual power, was panting as he excitedly sensed the energy of the world around him.

Even if he sits still without cultivating, the thin external energy will still enter the vortex through the empty meridians, and after compression and condensation, it will be assimilated into his soul power.

As for that snow lotus?

It can play an important role in all of these operations.

As the vortex rotates, the snow lotus also continuously emits more energy, increasing the total amount of soul power in the vortex and barely balancing it with the energy seeping in from the outside, maintaining the stability of the entire system.

Before the energy in the snow lotus is completely drained, Huo Yuhao can continue to enjoy the accelerating effect of the soul power vortex.

"The only drawback is that this balance is not stable..."

But no problem.

Anyway, there aren't any life-or-death battles usually, so I can just stay in my dorm and rest.

He refused to believe that anyone would dare to attack him in Shrek City.
"interesting……"

Just after Huo Yuhao's experiment was successfully completed, Elder Yi, who had transformed into a ball of energy, also turned his gaze over: "Although the efficiency is a bit low, it can indeed play a similar role to the Holy Guiding Spirit Furnace."

"senior?"

Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment: "What is...Saint Guiding Spirit Furnace?"

"The spirit furnace is a special product of the plane I lived in before, and they are all treasures naturally formed. Each spirit furnace comes with a unique skill."

Elder Yi carefully examined the vortex in the dantian: "One of the two major functions of the Holy Guiding Spirit Furnace is to autonomously maintain a spiritual energy vortex, continuously accumulating spiritual energy to improve one's cultivation level. Once the vortex is activated, this effect will continue indefinitely."

Self-sustaining.

It continues.

Isn't that just a fully automated training cheat device?
Huo Yuhao's brow twitched involuntarily.

According to Elder Yi, the so-called Sacred Guiding Spirit Furnace does not require the sacrifice of a supreme powerhouse like the Snow Empress, nor does it require a rare treasure like the Snow Lotus as a catalyst, nor does it require the condensation of a super-weakened version of the soul power vortex based on the principle of the soul core...

It absorbs, and then it starts working.

"It seems that the power system of the Holy Demon Continent can indeed be used in this world without any obstacles."

Looking at the vortex of soul power again, a glimmer of light gradually appeared in Elder Yi's eyes: "The path to godhood should also be able to be perfectly restarted in this world."

There's no need to convert his power; once he recovers his strength and is successfully resurrected, he can ascend directly!
Of course~
The most pressing issue right now is how to properly care for this last remaining wisp of divine consciousness.

"We still need the Gold of Life..."

Old Yi let out a long sigh.

After going around in circles, it's still a dead end.

If he can't find a similar treasure, his divine consciousness might only last for another two or three hundred years.

　Based on a sudden inspiration, the corresponding levels of soul beasts can be divided into three parts.
　　grade
　　Soul Power
　　combat power
　　For example, in the Douluo Continent III setting, a bloodline like the Dragon King can directly fight against a Limit Douluo after 100,000 years, but according to Di Tian, ​​even after 900,000 years, he still hasn't become a god.

　　(This bug is obviously difficult to fix, since Douluo Continent II directly stated that every 100,000 years, ferocious beasts are similar to Soul Masters leveling up.)
　　Furthermore, it is known that Zi Ji's soul power is approximately 98, and soul beasts naturally have more soul power...

　　Therefore, let's assume directly—

　　魂力总量方面：10万＝91，20万＝95，40/50万＝99
　　等级方面：10万＝91，40万＝96/97，60/70万＝99
　　Combat strength: Not discussed, as different bloodlines perform differently. For the Beast King, 1 = 95, 10 = 99.
　　Applying this system might explain some of the plot holes, but not entirely. Only the soul power + level system can fill some gaps in the storyline; the combat power system actually collapsed due to the increased emphasis on soul beasts in Douluo Continent III, creating even more loopholes… Therefore, this is still under investigation and remains just a conjecture.
