Douluo: Huo Yuhao Returns from Devouring the Stars

"After I purified the Soul Devouring Carving Knife, the Life Gold within it has regained its vitality. The immense vitality it holds far exceeds your imagination. As a result, you have gained a brand new carving knife that can fully unleash the power of Life Gold!"

"Because of the Gold of Life, this carving knife is in no way inferior to any other carving knife in terms of power and preciousness. It is no exaggeration to say that it is the most precious and powerful carving knife on this continent!"

"I thought about it carefully and gave it an appropriate name: Blade of the Living Guardian."

"This Blade of Lifeguard can not only grant a living being immense vitality, but it can also deprive it of its vitality. I call this ability to deprive it of vitality Judgment."

"Any energy being possesses life. Judgment can only target those beings that do not protect their own lives. If they encounter resistance, the judgment will be invalidated, and the vitality taken away by the Blade of the Living Guardian can be fed back into the Blade of the Living Guardian itself."

"The ability of Judgment has a miraculous effect on the soul guides of your world. Combined with the mental power you learned from your dream, it will definitely unleash extremely terrifying power!"

Huo Yuhao excitedly picked up the Blade of Living Guardian. He knew too well how terrifying this carving knife was.

As long as he has the Blade of the Living Guardian in his hand, all kinds of soul guides made of strong rare metals will become as brittle as thin paper in front of him, and any soul guide and rare metal that falls on it will shatter at the touch!

With the Blade of the Living Guardian, he will be able to create soul guides with divine help. Any rare metal will be powerless under his spiritual detection and the blessing of the Blade of the Living Guardian. It is no exaggeration to say that carving complicated soul guide arrays is a piece of cake for him.

Moreover, with it, he can also use more rare metals to develop soul-guided mechas that are similar to battle armors but superior to battle armors and driven by soul-guided arrays!

Nowadays, the soul guidance technology of the Sun-Moon Empire that applies thoughts and mental power to soul guides has become mature. Once he has mastered all the advanced soul guidance arrays, combined with the mecha knowledge and experience from his previous life, it should not be a problem for him to create a mecha-type soul guidance array!

Chapter 73: Blade of the Living Guard

Nowadays, the soul guidance technology of the Sun-Moon Empire that applies thoughts and mental power to soul guides has become mature. Once he has mastered all the advanced soul guidance arrays, combined with the mecha knowledge and experience from his previous life, it should not be a problem for him to create a mecha-type soul guidance array!

More importantly, with the nourishment of the gold of life contained in the Blade of Life Watch, Yi Lao's consciousness can recover faster, and then the problems encountered by the original owner in the middle and late stages can be easily solved.

Moreover, because he did not enter the dog training bureau carefully prepared for him by the God King Tang, the God King Tang, who was committed to the great destiny of ten thousand years, had other plans, which led to a lot of changes in the world line and many more potential crises. Only when Yi Lao was safe and sound could his self-protection ability be guaranteed.

In the sea of ​​spirit, Alex sighed weakly, "Alas, I didn't expect that I'd become so weak. I feel so exhausted after just a few moves."

"Yuhao, take the Blade of the Living Guardian and place it on your forehead. No matter what happens later, you don't have to panic. Leave everything to me. Do you understand?"

"No problem, Yilao."

Huo Yuhao picked up the Blade of Lifeguard and placed it on his forehead according to Alex's instructions.

The moment the Blade of Living Guardian touched his skin, a warm breath merged with Huo Yuhao's body, and then a strange breath was released from his sea of ​​​​spirit and injected into the Blade of Living Guardian that was pressed against his forehead.

In an instant, the Life-Guarding Blade, which looked like it was carved from a green gem, emitted a green light, and an extremely rich life force was infused into Huo Yuhao's body through his brows.

Infused with this tremendous vitality, his body and spiritual sea turned cyan, and every cell in his body greedily absorbed the rich vitality emanating from the Blade of Living Guardian.

Under the cleansing of the rich life force, Huo Yuhao's meridians, internal organs, muscles, bones, etc. underwent qualitative changes. Under the action of the life force like a gushing spring, the impurities and dirt in his body were forced out.

At this moment, an unprecedented feeling of comfort swept over his whole body. Huo Yuhao felt as if his body had become clear and transparent, completely spotless.

Just as Huo Yuhao was immersed in this mysterious state, the Blade of Life-Guarding on his forehead slid down from his skull into his body naturally, and merged with his sea of ​​​​spirit at a rapid speed!

His spiritual sea turned into a vibrant emerald green under the life force that was so rich that it was almost thick. The spiritual sea was expanding at an extremely exaggerated speed, and as a result, his spiritual power, that is, his mental power, increased rapidly!

As the expansion of his spiritual sea gradually ceased, an old man in white, with an aged face and a sacred aura, appeared above Huo Yuhao's sea of ​​consciousness. He couldn't help but sigh, "Thanks to this gold of life, otherwise, I don't know how long it would take for this old man's spiritual consciousness to recover to its current state."

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, Ice Emperor, Snow Emperor and Huo Yuhao all looked at Ilex in surprise. They didn't expect that the Gold of Life could bring such a great improvement to Ilex.

Electrolux was in a good mood and said with great anticipation:

"This remnant of my soul was supposed to dissipate between heaven and earth, but I never thought that it could be preserved after entering Yuhao's spiritual sea of ​​consciousness. Now, it is nourished by the treasure of heaven and earth, the Gold of Life. When one day this remnant of my soul can be restored to its former state, everything I have lost will return. At that time, I will be considered a true god of the Death God, the Undead Scourge Ilex..."

"Yuhao, you have now become a Four-Ring Soul Sect. It's quite impressive that you have achieved such success at such a young age, but you still need to work hard to cultivate and become a Five-Ring Soul King as soon as possible. Only when you reach the Five-Ring Soul King level or above can I gradually pass on to you my highest level of accomplishment, the inheritance that I have preserved to this day. Of course, the prerequisite is that you are willing to accept my teachings."

"Big Bug, Little Scorpion, Snow Girl, Yuhao's cultivation has reached the level of a Four-Ring Soul Sect. The energy you have sealed can now be gradually released. With Yuhao's current physical fitness and mental strength, he should be able to withstand a lot of the energy you have sealed."

"Big Bug, Little Scorpion, Snow Girl, I will no longer compete with you for territory. I will go first to the second sea of ​​consciousness that I opened up for Yuhao using the Gold of Life. From now on, you can contact me through the Origin. I am leaving now, hahahaha..."

As he spoke, Alex waved his hand, turned around, and entered the green light door that appeared out of thin air behind him, and disappeared.

"As expected of the God of Death, you purify evil with undead magic that I have never heard of before, and use the gold of living beings with extraordinary means to open up a second sea of ​​consciousness for Yuhao. With Master Yi's blessing, our plan to create a god may really succeed!" The Snow Queen looked at the disappearing back of Alex and couldn't help but whisper.

"The God-making plan proposed by my brother is naturally..."

Before Tianmeng Ice Silkworm could finish his words, he was kicked away by the Ice Emperor. "Hmph, I'll let you show off."

At this time, the wound on Huo Yuhao's forehead not only showed no signs of healing, but instead expanded at an extremely slow rate, until it finally formed something like a third eye.

The majestic life force continuously washed over his spiritual sea of ​​consciousness. Huo Yuhao only felt that he was constantly being torn apart and reassembled. His body, mind, and soul were all enduring unimaginable pain. Sweat soaked his back, and the dirt and impurities that had been forced out of his body by the life force became slippery and smelly under the infiltration of sweat.

Huo Yuhao endured the excruciating pain that was comparable to being tortured to death by slicing a thousand pieces of wood. Several times, he almost fell into unconsciousness, but he gritted his teeth and persevered.

After a long time, his spiritual origin was wrapped in soft gold, and a light penetrated into his chaotic consciousness. At this moment, his spirit began to undergo a qualitative change.

It was not until an unknown amount of time had passed, and after his energy and spirit had gradually recovered, Huo Yuhao discovered that there was a vertical eye on his forehead that was gray and flashing with golden luster!

When he put his consciousness into the sea of ​​​​knowledge, he saw the spiritual sea that had expanded at least three times. In the center of the endless milky white space, there was a green lake suspended. Rich vitality floated from it. A vertical eye with a golden luster flashing in the gray hung above it. In the deep space was the source of spiritual power that had faded green, and it was still rotating in the deep space like a star.

Under the transformation of the Gold of Life, Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea underwent earth-shaking changes, like a vibrant world.

"Yuhao's body and spiritual sea have undergone such a huge change. This gold of life is truly magical!"

The Snow Empress stood in the air above the sea of ​​consciousness, her long, snow-white hair hanging down to her heels, her sky-blue eyes filled with wonder.

"Yes, I didn't expect that there is such a treasure as the Gold of Life on the mainland. After being transformed by the Gold of Life, Yuhao's strength and potential have improved a lot." Bingdi held his hands in front of his chest, his long green hair moving without wind, and his words seemed to be whispering.

The voice of Alex, who had entered Huo Yuhao's second sea of ​​consciousness, suddenly "came from the sky" and began to explain to them the essence and magical uses of the Gold of Life. He then explained in detail the many changes that had occurred in Huo Yuhao's body after the fusion of the Blade of Life's Watch.

"Each piece of Soul Gold is equivalent to an independent world. Now, I have sealed the life force essence of this Soul Guardian Blade within Yuhao's sea of ​​consciousness. From now on, Yuhao's mental strength will increase at three times the normal rate. No matter how serious the injury, as long as the brain is still there and the heart is not destroyed, he will be able to recover as before under the influence of this life force essence!"

Chapter 74: Take Off

"Also, Yuhao, there are a few things you really need to know."

Elex paused and said, "The Blade of the Living Guardian hasn't disappeared. It's actually your third vertical eye, the Eye of the Living. When you need it, simply focus your mental energy on the Eye of the Living to gain the power of the carving knife. However, this carving knife will have some of the properties of the Living Gold as well as some of my properties."

"Secondly, from now on, I will be considered a unique spirit of yours. In other words, you now have three spirits. However, this spirit cannot be attached with spirit rings. After I teach you my undead magic, this undead magic can be condensed into spirit rings with corresponding abilities."

"Third, the Gold of Life is a vast treasure trove for you, so I hope that after you return to the Sun-Moon Empire, you can calm down and retreat for a period of time to experience the many benefits that the Gold of Life brings you and appreciate the many mysteries of life force. Only then can you truly integrate the life force source that I sealed in your sea of ​​consciousness. Only then can you gradually understand the mysteries of life and make good use of the vast life force contained in the Gold of Life."

"Fourth, after being transformed by the Gold of Life, your physical fitness and mental strength have been greatly improved. Your body, spiritual sea, and consciousness have been perfectly integrated. You must continue to diligently practice the secret techniques you learned from your dreams. I see that you have practiced them and they are quite profound. They can greatly develop the use of mental strength. I will not elaborate on this in detail."

"Finally, my consciousness is within your Eye of Life, your second sea of ​​consciousness. Nourished by the Gold of Life, my consciousness will no longer be at risk of dissipating. As it recovers, everything I once possessed will return. When you become a Five-Ring Soul King, I will teach you the art of the dead if you wish. You are a good child, and I am relieved to have you learn this art."

Ilex thought for a moment and said, "That's all I have to say for now. As for other matters, I'll tell you later when I remember them. I should also quickly merge with your Eye of Life and exist as your third martial spirit."

"Okay, Yilao."

Huo Yuhao’s consciousness returned to the real world. Amidst the great joy brought by the Gold of Life, he dragged his tired body to take a shower before lying down on the bed.

"Under the influence of the Gold of Life, coupled with this period of training, the warrior's genetic energy has reached the advanced warrior level, and his mental power has advanced from the elementary general level to the intermediate general level. He is only two levels away from the god of war level mental power!"

Although it is not known what level of soul master the War God-level psychic can match, it is definitely no problem for him to kill a Soul Sage or even a Soul Douluo-level soul master!

However, the more you cultivate your mental power, the more difficult it becomes to improve. From the intermediate level of war general to the advanced level of war general, and then from the advanced level of war general to the level of war god, if you do not have rare treasures to promote your cultivation, it will take a lot of time and energy to improve these two levels.

However, with his current intermediate-level general-level mental power, his self-preservation ability is still very high. His flying speed alone can surpass many high-level flying soul guides.

Just as Huo Yuhao was about to close his eyes and sleep, the voice of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm suddenly rang out in his sea of ​​consciousness.

"Yuhao, we are now going to gradually release the previously sealed energy. The lifespan of the spirit rings we granted you will be increased. Also, under the energy of my million-year seal, the lifespan of the second, third, and fourth spirit rings attached to your Spirit Eye Martial Spirit will also be increased!"

"When you wake up tomorrow morning, you will find that except for the first soul ring of the Spirit Eye Martial Soul, which will become a white soul ring with a hint of gold, the rest of the soul rings will become ten thousand year level soul rings!"

Huo Yuhao resisted the urge to sleep and said, "Alright, the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Competition qualifying round is coming up soon, and we'll need our fighting strength right now. Go ahead and unseal it. I'd really like to know how many years of spirit rings I can withstand with my current physical condition."

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm shook his head and said, "I've felt it, and your current physical strength should be able to withstand a spirit ring of about 30,000 years. Anyway, let's increase the spirit ring's age first. You have the simulated spirit skill anyway, so you can confuse the audience when the time comes."

Before Tianmeng Bingcan could finish his words, Huo Yuhao fell into a deep sleep in deep sleepiness.

The next day.

The high-level competition venues across the continent still attracted more than 200,000 spectators, and the 64 teams that successfully advanced to the round-robin tournament gathered at the competition venue.

After Xu Jiawei announced the start of the round-robin tournament for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Competition, in order to enhance the viewing and competitive nature of the competition, the tournament committee read out a number of new rules for the round-robin tournament, further restricting the types of soul guides that could be used.

This is to avoid the situation in the round-robin tournament where the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Team played against the Sun Moon West Coast Soul Master Team, so that the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Team could sweep the round-robin tournament in their group solely by relying on the soul guides they prepared, and easily enter the top 16 to challenge the major teams for the championship.

Although there are a few of these regulations that are aimed at soul masters, they are insignificant. Most of the regulations are aimed at restricting the performance of soul masters.

However, the tournament committee did not dare to do it too obviously, lest the competition lose too much fairness and become a target of criticism, thus destroying the prestige of the empire.

The teams for the round-robin tournament will be announced only after the tournament committee has announced the relevant rules for the round-robin tournament.

"Group One: Shrek Academy, Zhengtian Academy, and Hongyun Advanced Soul Master Academy."

"Group 2: Xingluo Royal Academy."

"."

"Group Seven: Sun-Moon Empire Royal Soul Instructor Academy, Sun-Moon Empire South Coast Soul Instructor Academy, Sun-Moon Empire Far East Soul Instructor Academy, Mingdu Soul Guidance Equipment Research Academy"

"."

"There are nine teams in Groups 4, 7, and 8, and eight in the other groups. The draw was witnessed by the organizing committee and the entire process was transparent. The results are real, fair, and valid."

After hearing the round-robin draw results announced by the tournament committee, all the teams from the Sun-Moon Empire were furious.

"You're still talking about fairness and effectiveness? If you can't afford to lose, just say so. Not only did they restrict the Soul Guidance Devices that can be used in all previous tournaments, but they also put most of our Sun-Moon Empire teams in the same group, causing us to fight among ourselves. This Xingluo Empire is truly disgusting!"

"You can't afford to hold a big competition? This is the magnanimity of the old empire. This is what they call fairness?"

"You Xingluo Empire, the next Continental High-Level Soul Master Competition will be held in Mingdu. If I don't assign all the seeded teams to your group, I, Xu Zhicheng, will be damned!"

In addition to the many Sun-Moon Empire teams and spectators who felt that it was unfair, even many spectators from Douluo Three Kingdoms felt that the fairness of the round-robin draw results needed to be confirmed.

Not only did they frequently arrange for the Sun-Moon Empire's teams to engage in internal conflicts during the knockout rounds, but they also deliberately added restrictions on the use of various soul guides during the round-robin tournaments, and even arranged a large number of Sun-Moon Empire teams into one group. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that this was a shady operation.

"The Xingluo Empire doesn't even want to put on an act. Six of the nine teams are from the Sun-Moon Empire. They are really fighting for the championship and honor without even caring about their reputation!" Ma Rulong clenched his fists and said coldly.

Chapter 75 The tip of the needle versus the awn of wheat

"The Xingluo Empire is not going to perform anymore? Six of the nine teams are from Sun and Moon. They are really fighting for the championship and honor without even caring about their reputation!" Ma Rulong clenched his fists and said coldly.

"There aren't many teams in the empire that advance to the round-robin tournament, and yet they've arranged five teams in our group. Most importantly, they're all among the strongest teams in the empire. Who would believe that this is a coincidence?" Lin Xi almost growled indignantly.

Xiao Hongchen crossed his arms and said calmly, "If an enemy comes, we will fight him; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth. They are just the Xingluo Empire Royal Team and they pose no threat to us."

"Don't let us meet the Xingluo Royal Team, otherwise don't blame me for beating them up mercilessly!" Meng Hongchen waved her pink fist, and her silver hair like a waterfall danced in the air.

Yu Yu looked towards the competition committee with a sullen expression and said calmly:

"Xu Jiawei's plan is quite clear. He wants us to continue to fight among ourselves, test our cards, protect the weakened Shrek team, buy time for the two Soul Emperor-level players who are recuperating in the hotel, and allow the Xingluo Royal Team to seize the championship. It's a really good plan."

"But no matter how good your plan is, if you don't know your own limits, you'll end up losing everything."
