Douluo Dalu: Huo Yuhao Knows the Plot

Chapter 6: The Emerald Devil Bird

“Where are we going? Don’t you already have a Soul Ring? Why are we going deeper?” Tianmeng Iceworm asked again.

“You said it yourself, I came here for a Soul Ring, but you forgot that I’m already at level twenty and can acquire my second Soul Ring,” Huo Yuhao explained. This was also why he didn’t choose to travel with Tang Ya and Bei Bei.

Huo Yuhao’s Soul Power reached level ten when he was a little over ten years old. After reaching level ten, he stopped suppressing it and began to cultivate with all his strength. After acquiring his first Soul Ring, he directly reached level twenty, which was quite a surprise for Huo Yuhao.

“You should have said so earlier. I told you before that I had already found a second Soul Ring for you. When you have time, go to the Land of Extreme Ice.”

Huo Yuhao nodded slightly and smiled, “You’re right, but since we’re here, let’s try our luck. What if we encounter something more suitable?”

“Try our luck my ass. I can’t exert much combat power right now. If you encounter a Soul Beast, you’ll have to find a way yourself.”

Huo Yuhao smiled and didn’t reply. Instead, he began to feel the Soul Skills that Tianmeng Iceworm had given him.

First was Spiritual Detection: A powerful detection and reconnaissance skill. The detection range increases with strength, and the detection distance increases when focusing on one direction.

Second was Spiritual Sharing: This skill can be used in conjunction with Spiritual Detection. It can share everything that is detected with others. The sharing range and the number of people shared with increase with strength.

Spiritual Interference: Creates an interference effect on the target, causing the opponent's spirit to become abnormal.

Soul Shock: Deals spiritual damage to the enemy, but the opponent's spiritual power cannot exceed that of the user, otherwise, there will be a backlash.

In summary, Huo Yuhao felt that only Spiritual Detection was not bad, and the other three were dispensable. Spiritual Sharing is a control and auxiliary skill, suitable for teams, but Huo Yuhao knew that it would be difficult for him to find long-term partners.

Not to mention Spiritual Interference and Soul Shock. The former uses powerful spiritual fluctuations to interfere with the enemy, and the latter condenses spiritual power to attack the opponent. It can be said that they are basically useless. Huo Yuhao himself can completely use Spiritual Interference and Soul Shock, which are self-created Soul Skills.

Of course, Tianmeng Iceworm, as a million-year Soul Beast, is not without its merits. The Spiritual Detection skill made Huo Yuhao sigh at its magic. Although he could achieve the effect of reconnaissance by spreading his spiritual power, it was far worse than Spiritual Detection. First of all, Huo Yuhao himself could only detect the surface with his spiritual power, just like observing with the naked eye. However, Spiritual Detection presents everything within the detection range in a three-dimensional form in his mind, and no detail can escape.

In addition to Soul Skills, there is also the most important point. Tianmeng Iceworm sealed its million years of energy in Huo Yuhao’s body. This energy can increase the age of Huo Yuhao’s ten Soul Rings to the 100,000-year level. That is to say, Huo Yuhao can completely upgrade all the Soul Rings of a Martial Soul to full red. Just thinking about the picture is spectacular, not to mention how powerful Huo Yuhao will be at that time.

Of course, Huo Yuhao didn’t become complacent because of this. He knew that these were still far from the Gods of this world. The only thing he could really rely on was himself. Others were just assistants at best.

Unlike Dai Yuhao in the original story, Huo Yuhao was completely confident that he could become a God on his own, but he couldn’t do that. He was a child with almost zero talent, and without a famous teacher to guide him, why could he defy the norm and soar into the sky? Therefore, he had to find Tianmeng Iceworm in order to let Tianmeng Iceworm become his cover, so that he could explain any amazing creations he made in the future.

“Roar,” an angry roar pulled Huo Yuhao back from his thoughts. The sound came from Huo Yuhao’s front right. Coming back to his senses, Huo Yuhao restrained his aura and quietly approached the direction from which the sound came.

After walking for a while, Huo Yuhao detected the source of the sound: a giant pig with a bright red body. Even with its limbs on the ground, the giant pig was five meters tall. There was not a single hair on its body, and its back was covered with sharp thorns. Except for its back, the rest of its body was covered with thick keratin. Its eyes, as big as copper bells, were filled with surprise and anger.

“Blood Soul Bristleback,” Tianmeng Iceworm’s surprised voice sounded in Huo Yuhao’s mind. Huo Yuhao immediately asked about the relevant details.

It turned out that the Blood Soul Bristleback is an extremely peculiar Soul Beast. The sharp thorns on its back can be launched at the opponent when fighting, and it is also born with a weak fire attribute. However, compared with the former, its spiritual power is more worthy of attention. It can be said without exaggeration that the Iceworm, which is good at spiritual power, is a younger brother in front of it under the same cultivation.

But then again, the Iceworm is a trash Soul Beast, who would compare with it?

At this time, a streak of green light flashed frequently in the field, entangled with the Blood Soul Bristleback. Its speed was so fast that Huo Yuhao, who was observing in secret, found it difficult to capture.

A faint yellow halo appeared around Huo Yuhao. Instantly, the surrounding scenery appeared in Huo Yuhao’s mind in a three-dimensional form. The speed of the Blood Soul Bristleback slowed down in Huo Yuhao’s eyes. The keratin on its body and every sharp thorn could not escape Huo Yuhao’s eyes. Similarly, so was the green light. Thanks to this, Huo Yuhao finally saw the true face of the green light.

It was a bird-type Soul Beast with a bright green body. Only its beak was red, and it looked only the size of a palm. Its eyes flashed with a fierce red light.

“Emerald Devil Bird.” Huo Yuhao couldn’t hide the surprise in his eyes. There was no other reason, the Emerald Devil Bird’s reputation was too loud. It was one of the most cruel bird-type Soul Beasts. Their growth completely relies on sucking the brains of various creatures. Whether it is a Soul Beast or a human, they are all their targets. The Emerald Devil Bird especially likes human brains. This Soul Beast moves like lightning, and its speed is among the best in the entire Soul Beast world. It’s just that there are not many of them in existence.

The Emerald Devil Bird once caused a huge disaster in the ancient times. At that time, they were still gregarious Soul Beasts. When a flock of Emerald Devil Birds flew over, all creatures had holes in their heads and no brains!

Later, the Soul Beast world spontaneously carried out an extermination of the Emerald Devil Bird. Under the leadership of several Soul Beast Kings, they killed most of this Soul Beast clan. This reduced the Emerald Devil Bird’s threat to the creatures of the continent a lot. Even if they appeared, it was only occasionally and very cautious.

It is said that an Emerald Devil Bird King once sucked the brain of a True Dragon, constantly evolving and becoming the most terrifying killer of that era.

It was also because the True Dragon was killed that the Dragon clan, which ruled the continent in that era, concentrated its forces and launched a crazy revenge killing against the Emerald Devil Bird clan, thereby completely destroying them.

However, after carefully feeling it, Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief. This Emerald Devil Bird fighting with the Blood Soul Bristleback only had eight hundred years of cultivation, which was not too terrifying. If its cultivation exceeded a thousand years, then Huo Yuhao could turn around and run away directly. If he was unlucky enough to be discovered, it would be difficult to escape.

No wonder Huo Yuhao was so nervous. The Emerald Devil Bird’s bloodline can be said to be at the peak of the Soul Beast world. This thing can kill ordinary ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts with a thousand years of cultivation. It’s so ruthless that it even eats dragons.

However, the next scene made Huo Yuhao, who was watching in secret, drop his jaw. The Blood Soul Bristleback seemed to be a little exhausted after fighting for so long and was already showing signs of weakness. Seeing this, the Emerald Devil Bird once again turned into a streak of green light and shot towards the Blood Soul Bristleback.
