Chapter 177 Soul Bone
"Okay, go and rest." After finishing their meal, Huo Yuhao urged the two to rest.
But Huo Yuhao himself did not plan to rest.
Because the other side of me is about to arrive.
So Huo Yuhao planned to wait.
After Huo Yuhao finished his meal, he came to the outside of the restaurant alone. At this moment, many tents were set up outside the restaurant, and there was a lot of noise and many people gathered here.
You can see that this place is always very lively.
Therefore, Huo Yuhao deliberately walked outside, intending to find a quiet place to stay alone for a while.
But when Huo Yuhao closed his eyes to rest outside, he suddenly opened his eyes.
Huo Yuhao sensed a malicious intent that seemed to be directed against him.
However, without his original martial spirit by his side, Huo Yuhao was unable to conduct a thorough investigation of his surroundings.
The characteristic of the Ultimate Ice Martial Soul is its powerful attack power, but it is actually far inferior to the original Martial Soul in terms of detecting information.
Huo Yuhao stood up slowly, intending to slowly retreat into the restaurant.
Being alone here, no one would know even if something happened. Naturally, those who wanted to attack from behind would have fewer concerns.
But before Huo Yuhao could leave, a hidden soul power emerged from all directions, forming a semicircular protective shield that enveloped Huo Yuhao.
"As expected of a genius from Shrek Academy, my soul skill may not be detected by soul saints of the same level. But you are able to detect it, which is really rare."
An old and teasing voice sounded in Huo Yuhao's ears, but the other party's figure was still hiding in the dark and refused to show up.
"Who are you? How dare you attack me? Why? Didn't your family teach you the truth before you came here?" Huo Yuhao said calmly.
“Kid, don’t think you can scare others away just by relying on the name of Shrek Academy. If you only rely on your identity and background, then how could the Douluo Continent be so exciting?” The man seemed a little embarrassed and annoyed when he heard Huo Yuhao say this.
“It’s true that your identity and background alone won’t scare people away. But you are different. You still refuse to show up until now. I guess you are afraid that I can escape from here and report your appearance to the elders. It would be bad if you end up losing more than you gain and attract other people’s attention.” Huo Yuhao said lightly.
"You're right. I really don't want to show up. After all, geniuses like you are the ones that every power has its eyes on. If I hadn't seen you appear alone, I wouldn't have taken action against you." The man frankly admitted his fear.
"Since you didn't show up, I didn't lose anything. Let's do this, you leave immediately. I won't care about what happened today. If there is anything you want, just tell me. What I have now will definitely satisfy you." Huo Yuhao said.
“Haha, you want to negotiate with me?” The man seemed to find this a little funny. “If it’s just a normal thing, I can get it anyway with my status as a Soul Saint. But there’s one thing that I’m afraid you won’t give to me.”
Huo Yuhao sighed when he heard this. He already knew what the other party wanted.
The most important thing for a soul master, and the thing that can be snatched, is the soul bone.
Huo Yuhao had never revealed the fact that he had spirit bones, but the other party had guessed and inferred that Huo Yuhao might have spirit bones based on his identity and status, which was not wrong.
In fact, Huo Yuhao does have a soul bone at this moment, and it is a head soul bone from a 70-year-old ice and snow girl.
This can almost be said to be the best quality soul bone among all the existing soul bones in the world.
This person is really brave. He would disregard everything for a soul bone.
“You want soul bones? I actually have some here.” Huo Yuhao said.
"I can even find you an ownerless soul bone. As long as you give me a location, I can give it to you."
"Do you think I'm a fool? I only want the soul bone in your body. As long as I kill you, your soul bone will naturally be mine."
"Let's not talk about whether you can kill me or not. Even if you kill me, do you think you can escape the pursuit of Shrek and the Body Sect?"
"Shrek Academy and the Body Sect are indeed the most powerful sects in the world. I, a mere Soul Saint, naturally dare not provoke them. But if I don't seize the opportunity when I see it, how can I climb to the top of the Soul Master?"
"Okay, please stop talking. No matter what you say today, I will try to take your soul bone." The man's voice became fierce.
Following a strange sound, a purple smoke suddenly emerged from the semicircular shield, instantly filling the entire space and enveloping Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao thought about it, and a layer of ice armor covered his entire body.
The ultimate ice is the nemesis of the most poisonous things in the world. It is impossible for any poison to hurt Huo Yuhao through the ultimate ice.
And although Huo Yuhao’s martial spirit is not related to poison, his teacher is at least not poison-invulnerable.
“Alas, my poison has no effect on you at all. It seems that I have to use my real strength to deal with you.” The man was a little shocked. Although his poison was not as good as the poison of immortality, it was still a relatively powerful poison. However, he did not expect that he could not even defeat Huo Yuhao today.
Then the poison in the air changed shape and gradually solidified into three huge purple wolves.
These purple wolves condensed from soul power seemed to have consciousness and surrounded Huo Yuhao, making threatening noises.
Huo Yuhao frowned and looked at the group of wolves. The strength of this group of wolves was quite strong, with about 30,000 years of cultivation.
And there are three wolves, each of whom has been practicing for 30,000 years.
This is not an easy thing to deal with.
But fortunately, Huo Yuhao could still cope with it.
When three groups of wolves pounced on him from different directions, the ice armor on Huo Yuhao's body suddenly lit up and a strong frost force burst out from his body.
Then the soul named Ice Emperor slowly separated from Huo Yuhao's body, and with a wave of his hand, he instantly trapped the three wolves, and then blew a breath, and the three wolves with their physical bodies instantly turned into dark clouds.
"Where did this soul master come from? He even dares to touch my people." The Ice Emperor sat elegantly in mid-air, and frost condensed into a throne behind him.
Looking at the Ice Emperor who suddenly appeared, the man was speechless for a long time. He could not imagine how another person suddenly emerged from Huo Yuhao's body?
No, this doesn't seem to be a person, but a soul beast? !
After realizing the true nature of Ice Emperor, the man was shocked.
He never thought that a soul beast would be in Huo Yuhao's body, let alone that this soul beast could speak. It seemed to be quite intelligent, so did that mean that the cultivation level of this soul beast was the same?
The man was feeling anxious, and was considering whether to run away now, in order to avoid being found. To be honest, his action was just a spur-of-the-moment decision, and his preparations were not very complete.
Therefore, when he encountered a setback, he wanted to retreat immediately, but when he saw Huo Yuhao's appearance, the indignation in his heart rose again.
When he was young, he was also a well-known genius. However, because the city lord did not give him a letter of recommendation, he did not join Shrek Academy and was forced to stay in a small sect.
And he began his own cultivation journey in this small sect.
In the following decades, he cultivated step by step to become a Soul Saint. Looking back, his cultivation level was already quite high among his peers, and the Soul Saint level was enough to make him a well-known strong man in the local area.
But when he looked back, he found that the gap between his equally talented companions and him in cultivation had grown larger and larger after entering Shrek Academy. Up to now, he had only just advanced to the Soul Saint realm, but the other party was already thinking about breaking through to the Titled Douluo realm.
This difference in cultivation level completely broke his defense.
Decades of accumulated resentment, coupled with the imbalance in his heart, turned him into a person who hated Shrek extremely.
He hated the people from Shrek Academy very much. When he saw the faces of Huo Yuhao and the other two, he felt extremely disgusted.
Why can they go to Shrek? Why can they be so powerful at such a young age?
Why should I, a great Soul Saint, apologize to them?
All in all, various psychological imbalances made his hatred for Shrek reach its peak.
Of course, this was not the most important thing. The most important trigger was that during his contact with Huo Yuhao, he unexpectedly discovered that Huo Yuhao actually had a very high-quality soul bone. The quality of this soul bone was the highest he had ever seen in his life.
His martial soul is called Poison Mist, which is a martial soul with an unfixed form. Among all his soul skills, there is an inconspicuous soul skill that allows him to detect whether others have soul bones, and where is that soul bone?
It was also because of this soul skill that he discovered the existence of the 70,000-year soul bone in Huo Yuhao.
The psychological imbalance coupled with his greed for spirit bones made him completely lose his sense of proportion, so he couldn't wait to find Huo Yuhao and attack him.
He could feel that this soul bone did not match his attributes, but as long as he got this soul bone in his hands, whether he exchanged it or sold it, he would be able to improve his cultivation further.
However, Huo Yuhao didn’t know all this, and even if he knew, he wouldn’t care much.
Huo Yuhao only cared about one thing: could he defeat the other party so that he would not be in danger?
“Ice Emperor!” Huo Yuhao called out Ice Emperor’s name, and Ice Emperor instantly understood what Huo Yuhao meant.
Ice Emperor shook his head slightly towards Huo Yuhao.
If he didn't use the remains of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, it would be difficult for him to defeat this person.
After all, the Ice Emperor’s strength is now restricted by Huo Yuhao. Only as Huo Yuhao’s cultivation level improves can the Ice Emperor’s strength be gradually restored.
Huo Yuhao was anxious in his heart, but he did not show it on his face.
“Sir, you’ve seen it too. If you want to kill me here today, I’m afraid you won’t be able to do it without using your true abilities.” Huo Yuhao said, “And the reason why you haven’t dared to use your true abilities until now is not because you’re worried about hurting me, but because you’re worried that your spirit skills will be discovered by others.”
“After all, you are a Soul Sage, and you have some fame in Douluo Continent. If you use your true abilities, you will probably be recognized soon, right?” Huo Yuhao said.
"So what? After I kill you, I will go straight to the Sun and Moon Empire." The man said calmly.
"You can of course go to the Sun-Moon Empire. But going to the Sun-Moon Empire means giving up everything you have accumulated over the years here. Are you really willing to do that?"
The man thought about it carefully and felt that compared to Huo Yuhao's 70-year-old soul bone, the family business here seemed to be of no importance.
"Give it up."
Huo Yuhao was speechless. He knew that the other party must have sensed something from him, otherwise he would not have attacked him for an uncertain spirit bone.
The other party must have realized that the soul bone in his body was not ordinary.
In this case, the problem becomes a bit difficult.
"I have said everything I need to say. It is up to you to make your own judgment. But I still want to remind you. Don't think you will be alright if you flee to the Sun-Moon Empire. It's okay for Shrek Academy, but my teacher is a lunatic. If you mess with him, you won't survive even if you flee to the Sun-Moon Empire."
"Haha, I feel relieved when you say that. If you weren't scared at this moment, why would you bring up your teacher?"
"Since you are afraid, it means you are not sure you can survive me. Then I am sure I can keep you!" the man shouted. The purple poisonous smoke instantly enveloped Huo Yuhao again. At the same time, countless skulls emerged from the other side and kept attacking Huo Yuhao.
At the same time, on the ground, the dried plants condensed into a pair of hands that tightly grasped Huo Yuhao's feet and prevented him from moving.
Huo Yuhao leaned forward and the power of extreme ice continued to emerge from his body. He forcibly created a space for himself among the strange poisonous creatures.
The Ice Emperor continued to attack the semicircular shield outside.
But I didn't expect that I couldn't break the shield for a long time.
It seems to be a relatively powerful soul skill of the opponent.
Seeing that Huo Yuhao was about to be defeated, he remained calm.
“Sir, if you retreat now, you still have a chance to save your life.” Huo Yuhao advised.
“Haha, I’m about to win, why should I retreat?” The man couldn’t help but find it a little ridiculous when he heard Huo Yuhao’s words.
At this moment, the man's body suddenly stiffened and he felt a sudden sharp pain in his head.
At the same time, in the distance, countless oranges wrapped in soul guides kept exploding towards it.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao, who was trapped in the shield, exerted his strength again, and the soul skill originally maintained by the soul master was instantly broken.
It was not until this time that the power of extreme ice was fully revealed.
Huo Yuhao revealed his domain in time, and the Ice Emperor also used a soul skill in perfect sync.
At the same time, Huo Yuhao's real body who came from the other side also shared his spiritual detection with them.
For a moment, the man was in a dead end.
