"Boy, I think you are the most likely successor to the next generation of Body Douluo."
Huo Yuhao asked: "Where is Brother Aotian? His current cultivation should be higher than mine."
Du Bu Si shook his head: "Although only Titled Douluo can achieve the second awakening of the gold level, but the general idea can be seen at the seventh ring. Ao Tian's chance of success is no more than 20%, and you, kid, your chance of success is definitely more than 80%."
"You are now an emperor, high and mighty, and there is no treasure that can impress you. After much thought, the only thank you gift I can give you is the secret of the body."
Huo Yuhao stared silently at the contents of the book in his hand.
The grudge between him and Du Bu Si could not be explained in a few words. He thought he had settled all the favors between him and the Body Sect, but Du Bu Si still kept him in mind and gave him such a precious gift.
The secret of the body that can only be passed down by successive generations of body Douluo is now handed over to him, which has a sense of being appointed by the emperor.
After a long silence, he put away the secret of the body in his hand and said softly: "Thank you, Sect Master."
However, before he could finish thanking him, Du Bu Si glared at him, stepped forward and grabbed Huo Yuhao's wrist, which he wanted to take back, and scolded him, "Who said I was giving it to you? I'm just lending it to you temporarily to read."
"I will only lend it to you for three days. You must return it to me immediately after three days. If you miss a page, I will punch you."
Huo Yuhao: "..."
Although it was a reprimand, the cursing made Huo Yuhao feel that Du Bu Si was more approachable.
But this is no different from sending it as a gift. Three days is enough time for him to remember all the contents recorded there.
Du Bu Si cursed casually: "Back then, I and the Body Sect looked down on soul guides. It was only after being besieged by the Sun and Moon Empire in this competition that we witnessed the horror of soul guides. If a war really breaks out, I'm afraid that my Body Sect will suffer a great loss on the battlefield."
"Boy, you taught me a lesson long ago."
Huo Yuhao said: "Master Du, your martial soul has its own strengths, and your soul guide has its own advantages and disadvantages. There is no need to compete with each other."
Du Bu Si laughed and said, "Then combine your martial soul with the soul guide, and you will be invincible."
As he spoke, he suddenly remembered something and said, "Boy, Aotian knows you are here, and I am afraid he will have to compete with you before he will give up. You will be busy these few days."
Without waiting for Huo Yuhao's consent, Du Bu Si disappeared, and no one knew where he flew to.
Huo Qiuer asked curiously: "The combination of the body's martial soul and the soul guide device... seems to be a direction that has never been seen before."
Huo Yuhao said casually: "It sounds very similar to Mingde Hall's Plan No. 1. It can be included in the research direction."
He looked down at the secret of the body in his hand and fell silent again.
The figures of the two ice and snow emperors appeared quietly.
"That human will probably be able to break through to the Ultimate Douluo level in the near future." Xue Di speculated as she stared at the direction where Du Bu Si disappeared.
Bingdi said: "Yuhao, that human is still so kind to you."
Huo Yuhao corrected him, “He is not only good to me, he is also good to all the younger generations of the Body Sect.”
He turned and looked at Huo Qiuer.
Huo Qiuer nodded and admitted: "It's not just me and Long Aotian and Vina. Du Bu Si also took good care of Gu Tong and the others who have weaker talents. Of course, except when we were practicing, we all practiced together to death."
Bingdi asked in confusion, "Why? As far as I know, many disciples of the Benti Sect are actually not related to us, but were 'picked up' from outside."
She recalled her few impressions of the Benti Sect.
Huo Yuhao paused for a moment and said, “It is said that thousands of years ago, when the mainland had not yet understood the concept of the original martial spirit, it was believed that awakening the original martial spirit was an extremely ominous omen.”
"In the early days, those who awakened their true martial spirits were often discriminated against because of their deformed hands, feet or bodies."
"Later, the first true Body Douluo appeared. The Body Sect called him the Body Patriarch and the founder of the Body Sect. His purpose in establishing the Body Sect was to gather the Body Martial Soul Spirit Masters from all over the continent. Therefore, the first rule of the Body Sect was also established: anyone who awakens the Body Martial Soul automatically becomes a disciple of the Body Sect."
"Under his leadership, the disciples of the Body Sect learned the correct way to practice and gradually mastered the second awakening, becoming stronger and stronger, and at the same time becoming extremely united."
"Up to now, the Body Sect has also accepted some external spirit masters, but the core members are still the body martial spirits, and it has become one of the most powerful forces on the continent."
"Now when people mention their martial souls, they think of them as powerful soul masters. No one thinks of them as deformed or freakish anymore."
After listening to Huo Yuhao's brief account of the history of the Body Sect, Ice Emperor said, "It sounds like a group of people who huddled together for warmth, but in the end, they slapped the world in the face."
“We can stick together to keep each other warm, so to speak.” Huo Yuhao said calmly.
Huo Qiuer smiled intriguingly and said, "When you put it that way, it doesn't sound like the history of the Body Sect, but more like another organization."
"What organization?"
"The Holy Spirit Church." Huo Qiu'er smiled. "People who awakened the evil martial spirit were also discriminated against at the beginning, so they gathered together to study more evil cultivation methods, and they also believed that they were the chosen ones who mastered the holy power."
"Isn't this also a way of keeping each other warm?"
Huo Yuhao sneered: "The Body Sect can be asked to huddle together for warmth, but the Holy Spirit Sect can only be asked to gather together and rot and stink."
He put away the Secret of the Body in his hand. After leaving the Body Sect, he had indeed not conducted in-depth research on his eyes for a long time. During his time in the Sun-Moon Empire, he had conducted more thorough research on soul guides and ice martial souls. This thank-you gift from Du Bu Si was exactly what he needed.
Just as Du Bu Si said, there is no one to succeed the current Body Douluo. If he really awakens for the second time at the Gold level in the future and inherits the title of Body Douluo, the burden of the Body Sect will fall back on him again.
After many twists and turns, it seems that there is no escape. Since the day when the body spirit was awakened, the body sect was destined to be a group of people that could not be avoided.
But now it’s different. He already has enough strength to lead the entire Body Sect, the most powerful sect in the entire continent.
At this moment, Huo Qiu'er beside him suddenly spoke up: "Do you have a long-distance communication soul guide device in your hand?"
"How far do you want it?"
Huo Qiuer replied: "Across the continent."
Huo Yuhao frowned and said, "The current communication soul guide can only maintain communication within a city at most. The technology to cross the continent is far from being able to do so."
Huo Qiuer continued to ask: "Then how can I find your location from thousands of miles away? You shouldn't stay in Tianhun for long."
Huo Yuhao pondered for a moment and offered a solution: "Cross-continental communication is not possible at the moment, but I have a long-range positioning soul guide that can determine the approximate location of the target. What do you want this for?"
Huo Qiuer took the positioning soul guide, and a small screen displayed the approximate locations of Huo Yuhao and Huo Qiuer at the same time.
She looked towards the east with some uneasiness: "I want to go back to Xingdou."
Xue Di asked: "Did Di Tian find out that you are missing?"
Huo Qiu'er shook her head: "I used the excuse of being in seclusion and sleeping to hide it from them. For soul beasts, seclusion for decades or even hundreds of years is very normal. They shouldn't be able to find out."
"I just have a bad feeling."
"I don't need you to accompany me. I can go back by myself."
She stared at the eastern sky, and the uneasiness in her eyes grew stronger.
Huo Yuhao did not try to persuade him to stay, but waved goodbye and said, "Then go back. Remember to be safe and don't get caught and made into spirit rings."
Huo Qiuer glanced at him with dissatisfaction, without any lingering feelings. She said "goodbye" and flew towards the east on her flying board.
Qiu'er will certainly not be in danger, and will not be captured to make spirit rings, so don't worry about that...
Chapter 477: Fighting Long Aotian Again
After watching Huo Qiu'er disappear into the distance, Huo Yuhao was the only one left in the sky. He did not stop and fell towards the Tianhun Palace below.
The welcome banquet in the palace gradually came to an end, and ended with a speech by Princess Vina.
"It's getting late. Please follow the guidance of the respected Sun and Moon Messengers and return to the hotel to rest. On behalf of the Sky Soul Empire, I welcome you all."
Amid the applause of officials from both countries, the dinner officially ended and the attendants began to clean up the banquet hall.
Huo Yuhao did not rush back to the hotel with the others to rest, but stayed in the banquet hall.
"Well, it feels like the service of the Star Luo Empire is indeed better." Tian Meng returned to the sea of spirituality, lazily lying on the snow, and commented with satisfaction.
Bingdi looked at her speechlessly. In their current state, they no longer needed to eat to replenish their energy, but Tianmeng was always greedy. All she did was sleep, eat, and play. She really didn't look like a soul beast at all.
In fact, in the Far North, if the ice silkworm clan does not have to avoid natural enemies, the schedule is only about eating and sleeping.
Huo Yuhao carefully looked at the secret of the body in his hand. This was not only a thank-you gift from Du Bu Si, but also a hope from the other party.
Suddenly, several familiar auras appeared within the range of mental detection, one of which was extremely domineering and powerful.
Huo Yuhao put away the secret of his true body and looked at the visitors. The leader was none other than the young master of the True Body Sect, Long Aotian. Princess Vina followed beside him, and the rest were the younger generation of the True Body Sect.
"Brother Aotian, nice to see you again." Huo Yuhao greeted him with a smile. Long Aotian was full of fighting spirit, and he could guess what Long Aotian was doing with his eyes closed.
The emotional fluctuations of this battle maniac are no longer just simple excitement.
Du Bu Si also said that Long Aotian would come to find him in the next few days, and there was no need to wait until the next day. Long Aotian came late at night just by smelling the scent.
“Yuhao, you must have been traveling all the way. Thank you for bringing me the news about the Sun Moon Empire.” Long Aotian didn’t waste any words and went straight to the point. “I didn’t have the chance to compete with you at the last Mingdu Soul Master Competition. Today, let me formally experience your current strength.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Long Aotian's fighting spirit trembled, and his long brown-red hair fluttered in the wind behind his head.
Huo Yuhao shook his head helplessly: "Brother Aotian, it's late at night and I just arrived at Tianhun. You really don't intend to let me rest."
It sounds like a complaint, but it doesn't mean a rejection.
"Please." Long Aotian made a please gesture, pointing in the direction of the training ground.
Huo Yuhao did not rush to go, but thought for a few seconds before asking: "We can have a competition, but there has to be a prize. How about it?"
Long Aotian never wastes words, and said calmly: "As long as I can do it, it's up to me."
Huo Yuhao turned his gaze towards Vina: “I’m afraid only the Tianhun Royal Family can afford this prize.”
Vina nodded without hesitation: "It all depends on Aotian."
“Okay then, it’s a deal.” Seeing that the two of them agreed readily, Huo Yuhao walked towards the training ground.
The young leader of the national defense sect and the royal princess are enough to represent part of the Tianhun royal family.
Without any guidance, Huo Yuhao arrived at the training ground in the palace with ease. The layout of the palace had hardly changed, and he still remembered it after so many years.
He stood on the training ground, facing Long Aotian from a distance, waiting for the order from the temporary referee Vina.
"Get ready." Vina raised her right hand high and said loudly.
Long Aotian is not the kind of person who likes to waste his breath, and Vina did not have any pre-match speeches, and she couldn't wait to see the showdown between the two.
The fight had not officially begun yet, but Huo Yuhao and Long Aotian, who were facing each other from afar, burst out with two astonishing auras almost at the same time.
The two forces instantly crossed a distance of dozens of meters and collided with each other. Although it was an invisible air wave, it seemed as if countless hard fragments were flying around and hitting the faces of the surrounding spectators.
The disciples of the various Body Sects on the sidelines subconsciously covered their faces with their hands, as if the people standing on both sides of the field were not two humans, but two hundred thousand year old soul beasts.
Moreover, judging from the momentum... Long Aotian's powerful pressure was actually defeated by Huo Yuhao. In terms of the degree of violence, Huo Yuhao still had the upper hand.
Among the disciples of the Body Sect, Gu Tong, who also had an eye martial spirit, couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He and Vina, who were of spiritual attributes, had stronger mental power than others, and could better understand the horror of this duel.
This is not just a simple contest of momentum. The mental strength and soul power of the two people in front of them have reached the level of perfect fusion. This non-contact fight is an all-round wrestling between the two.
