Douluo Dalu: Huo Yuhao Knows the Plot

Chapter 4 Second Martial Soul

… Tianmeng slowly recounted his experiences, which, in short, were monotonous: eat when full, sleep when tired.

“Alas—” Tianmeng Ice Silkworm sighed deeply, “Unfortunately, I am still a tragedy. Breaking through a million years is a double-edged sword. Although it barely allowed me to escape their control, my lifespan is coming to an end due to a sudden heavenly punishment. If I can't survive in another way, I will soon die of life exhaustion. It was at this time that I met you, little fellow. Although you are pathetically weak, I have no other choice! At least you have spiritual attributes. So, I had no choice but to merge with you. No matter what, those bastards won't get my most precious things.”

“They are too hateful. How could they do this, imprisoning you for tens of thousands of years?” Huo Yuhao's little face showed righteous indignation, but he was frantically complaining in his heart, 'You're almost at the end of your life, and you're still picky.'

“That is to say, your first soul ring is of a million-year level, but now it does not have the power of a million-year soul ring. But as your cultivation progresses, the power I sealed in your body will gradually be unsealed, increasing the power of your soul ring. It can even enhance the power of your other soul rings in the future. After all, the power I have accumulated for a million years is too great for you.”

Huo Yuhao asked in disbelief, “That is to say, the power you sealed in my body can allow all my soul rings to reach the limit I can bear?”

Huo Yuhao's reaction made Tianmeng Ice Silkworm very proud. It raised its round head high, “Do you think that I, the majestic million-year soul beast king, am just a false name? Your current body can only withstand the soul ring of an 800-year soul beast for the first soul ring at most. Then, the actual power of your first soul ring is 800 years. When you break through again in the future and can withstand the soul ring of a thousand-year soul beast, your first soul ring will become a thousand years. It increases with your body's ability to withstand it. That is to say, your first soul ring can evolve at any time, and so will the other soul rings you obtain in the future. Of course, the power of evolution that I can give you is limited. The stronger the other soul rings you obtain, the more power I save. With the power I sealed in your body, it can only support you to have ten soul rings that can reach the 100,000-year level at most.”

“Ah? Ten? Can't we soul masters only have nine soul rings at most?” Huo Yuhao said in surprise, fully showing the appearance of a newbie.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm snorted coldly and said proudly: “That's for ordinary people. With my fusion, you are no longer an ordinary person. A single martial soul can only absorb nine soul rings. But you are no longer a single martial soul. Killing a 100,000-year soul beast will definitely get a soul bone and a 100,000-year soul ring with two soul skills. You should know this, right?”

Huo Yuhao nodded. It could be seen that Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was very proud, and there should be more to come.

Sure enough, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm continued: “As a million-year soul ring, and the first intelligent soul ring in history, I am of course much stronger than them. The first soul ring I transformed into can not only evolve infinitely according to your physical condition, but also give you four soul skills. However, I don't have a soul bone to give you, but I can give you an additional martial soul.”

Although Huo Yuhao knew all the benefits that Tianmeng Ice Silkworm would bring him, he still put on a very good show on the surface, revealing a well-deserved ecstasy.

“The martial soul I give you is ice, but it is currently ice without a soul.” Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's words brought Huo Yuhao back from his surprise.

“Ice without a soul? What do you mean?” Huo Yuhao looked puzzled.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm said: “That is to say, the martial soul I give you currently only has attributes, but no form. When you absorb the first ice-attribute soul ring, your martial soul will be finalized. What kind of soul beast you absorb the soul ring from, then your second martial soul will be that. That is to say, your second martial soul must be a beast martial soul. You don't have to worry, I have already thought about it for you. After this trip, go to the Far North, where I have found a suitable ice-attribute second soul ring for you.”

“Okay.” Huo Yuhao agreed excitedly, “Then what are my four soul skills?”

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm said: “That depends on your own understanding. Things you understand yourself are always clearer than what I tell you directly. However, don't be too happy too soon. That's right, I provide you with four soul skills, and they are all spiritual attributes. The power I sealed in your body is also very powerful. However, there are a few things you must remember. First of all, the power I sealed in your body can only help you increase the age of the soul ring when your cultivation reaches it, that is, the power of the soul skill. But it can't help you improve the soul power you cultivate yourself. Secondly, the four soul skills I give you are almost all auxiliary due to my own reasons, and do not have much attack ability. Therefore, you are still very weak now, and there is still a long way to go to become strong. Understand?”
