Huo Yuhao took a deep breath, nervously watching everything within the hexagram. Since it was an equal contract, the mutual recognition of both parties was more important than anything else. In this process of recognition, if either side had any objection, it would lead to the failure of the ceremony.
At this time, the benefit of Huo Yuhao using Kotoamatsukami to twist the will of this Fire Evil Tyrant was shown. Even when the soul beast's life was in danger, if it did not absolutely obey him and Ju Zi, then the fusion process would surely lead to Ju Zi's demise! With Kotoamatsukami having been used, it could be said that the danger of a soul beast's backlash was completely avoided. As for what kind of mentality Ju Zi had at this time, Huo Yuhao couldn't say for sure.
Time passed minute by minute. The light within the hexagram became stronger and stronger, and the symbols became more and more numerous.
Suddenly, all the symbols in the air stagnated. The Fire Evil Tyrant's huge body tilted and fell directly within the hexagram, losing all signs of life. And in the next instant, all those symbols, like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea, surged into Ju Zi's delicate body. A black soul ring, at least one size larger than a normal soul ring, suddenly rose from under her feet. And, in the process of rising, one could clearly feel Ju Zi's spiritual power level growing exponentially.
"Condense!" A clear and delicate shout came from Ju Zi's mouth. Immediately, the black soul ring was firmly placed on her body.
At this point, the cultivation plan for Ju Zi's ten-thousand-year first soul ring was completely declared a great success!
The light of Ju Zi's newly acquired black soul ring shone brightly. Her entire body became illusory for a moment. Immediately after, a black shadow drilled out from the palm of her right hand and landed beside her. Wasn't that the Fire Evil Tyrant from before? Except for its body looking a little illusory, not like a solid entity, it was simply no different from before.
Ju Zi couldn't help but exclaim, "It succeeded?" The Fire Evil Tyrant was connected to her heart. It leaped into the air, its tentacles landing steadily in the palm of her hand, as if it had grown out of her palm.
"This is a Soul Spirit. Congratulations, Sister Ju Zi," Huo Yuhao said with a faint smile. "But we have to leave here as soon as possible. The death of a ten-thousand-year Evil Eye Tyrant will definitely attract unnecessary trouble."
"Alright!" Ju Zi very obediently pounced towards Huo Yuhao. Even if the youth before her was full of secrets, now was definitely not the time to show her curiosity. Only by safely leaving this forest and returning to her own small town would everything be settled.
"Hmm?" Just as Huo Yuhao was putting Ju Zi into the Kamui space, he suddenly felt a trace of a strange spiritual aura rising in front of him, and then it disappeared in an instant.
This spiritual aura came precisely from the Fire Evil Tyrant he had just killed. Huo Yuhao's figure flashed, and he arrived at the location of the Fire Evil Tyrant's body after its death.
He saw that on the ground there was a diamond-shaped crystal. This crystal was a dark red color and had green patterns on it. The crystal core of an Evil Eye Tyrant? The spiritual aura that had emanated before seemed to have overflowed from here. Huo Yuhao finally recalled the various events in the original plot and immediately understood that a crisis had arrived.
After all, the Evil Eye clan belonged to the Sun Moon Continent. Therefore, even Shrek had not done much research on a creature like the Evil Eye. At most, there were only records of killing ordinary ten-year, hundred-year, and thousand-year Evil Eyes on the Sun Moon Empire's side. There were probably no records of a ten-thousand-year Evil Eye Tyrant.
Huo Yuhao squatted down, picked up the crystal, and seeped his spiritual power into it. He immediately discovered that within this crystal, there was residual spiritual power. It seemed that after an Evil Eye's cultivation reached a certain level, their soul would sublimate accordingly, forming this kind of crystal, and then hiding their soul origin within it.
Truly worthy of being the Evil Eye, skilled in spiritual abilities! Even a Fire Evil Tyrant, whose spiritual attribute was not pure, could escape with a trace of its spiritual sense after death. It was just that after its will had been twisted by Kotoamatsukami, could this escaped spiritual sense still have its original memories? Could it still attract the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord?
Normally speaking, as the true ruler of the Evildemon Forest, what kind of existence was the Evil Emperor? Did the death of a disciple's disciple's disciple require him, the old man, to personally make a move? Then this Evil Emperor would be too damn idle.
"The Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord should be about to face its eighth bottleneck. It's hard to say if it can pass it this time. Once it fails, it will die of old age. It probably doesn't have time to meddle in other people's business," in the spiritual sea, the only one who had woken up, the Ice Empress, knew what Huo Yuhao was thinking and explained.
But combining it with the original novel, the old man might not come, but his stupid son was another matter.
"This young master will even catch his son!"
Is it coming? A hundred-thousand-year Evil Eye Tyrant! As long as it wasn't the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord himself, Huo Yuhao was now confident in facing any crisis. The Evil Eye was skilled in spiritual power, and so was he. An Evil Eye with less than a hundred thousand years of cultivation was simply no threat to him. As for dealing with a hundred-thousand-year level one, Huo Yuhao was actually a little eager to try.
After a little thought, he floated towards the outer circle of the core of the Evildemon Forest. He had a vague feeling that the Fire Evil Tyrant he had just killed would bring him some trouble. Even though Huo Yuhao did not have the Destiny Skull that the Imperial Auspicious Beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, had sacrificed to the original owner, with his current spiritual power, it was still enough for him to perceive the arrival of a crisis in advance.
The reason why Huo Yuhao chose to run outwards instead of directly escaping into the Kamui space was very simple. This Evildemon Forest was the territory of the Evil Eye clan. The farther away from the core area he was, the safer he would be. He had to be completely far away from that Evil Emperor to be sure that he could safely escape after defeating that hundred-thousand-year Evil Eye Tyrant.
Just as Huo Yuhao was running wildly towards the outer circle of the Evildemon Forest, suddenly, a strange emotional fluctuation appeared in the bottom of his heart.
It was a negative emotion filled with a fusion of slaughter, hatred, and anger. The moment it appeared, Huo Yuhao immediately had a feeling of going crazy. Waves of coolness were instantly released from his spiritual sea, immediately suppressing the crazy feeling. And Huo Yuhao's forward steps also stopped.
Something was wrong with the surroundings. The scenery was still the same, but he clearly felt that something was wrong. This was still the Evildemon Forest, but at this moment, Huo Yuhao felt as if he were in another world. It was as if his whole person had been stripped from the original world by a strange force. Could it be a spiritual illusion? A domain-type spiritual ability?
Here comes the bro!
His two eyes focused. Huo Yuhao's entire temperament suddenly became different. A huge spiritual power instantly surged out from his brain like a tide. The four soul rings representing his Spirit Eyes shone up and down around his body. Especially on the last lustrous white soul ring, the blood-colored runes were even more dazzling.
The moment the light emitted from his soul rings came into contact with the outside air, Huo Yuhao suddenly had a feeling of opening a curtain. Then, opening a window, he entered another world. Everything around him became illusory, began to twist violently, and then transformed into countless powerful soul beast light and shadows, madly pouncing at him.
Huo Yuhao was unmoved. He stood there, his eyes slightly closed, his right hand pressed on his forehead. He said coldly, "Come out!"
A purple-red light instantly spread out from Huo Yuhao's forehead as the center. It looked like a circle of purple-red ripples blooming. Wherever it passed, the violently twisting light and shadows shattered one after another like a broken mirror.
"Good, very good. An interesting human. No wonder you dare to enter our territory. It turns out you are skilled in spiritual abilities. It seems you specifically intended to hunt my clansmen. It's a pity, even if you are a spiritual-attribute soul master, today you are destined to die."
Everything around returned to normal. Huo Yuhao, through his spiritual detection, instantly locked onto the direction from which the voice came. When he saw the master who had spoken, his two eyes couldn't help but light up, and a touch of wild joy appeared on his delicate and childish face.
That was an Evil Eye, a strange and powerful Evil Eye.
Just from its color, it was much more arrogant than the previous Fire Evil Tyrant. The body of this Evil Eye, or rather, its huge single eye, was silver-white. Its volume had a diameter of three meters. If the Fire Evil Tyrant from before were in front of it, it would be just like a child.
What concerned Huo Yuhao even more was that this Evil Eye had as many as sixteen tentacles hanging down from its body. And the number of tentacles was also one of the ways to judge the ability of an Evil Eye. The more tentacles, the more powerful this Evil Eye was.
The previous Fire Evil Tyrant only had six tentacles and already possessed very strong attack power. If not for Huo Yuhao directly using the Myojinmon to restrain it, once its most proficient Fire Pupil Gaze was released, even Huo Yuhao would feel a little trouble. After all, the power of fire still restrained the wood attribute to a certain extent.
And the Evil Eye before him actually had sixteen tentacles, and all of them were silver-white like its main body's single eye. This also meant that its status in the Evil Eye clan was the most noble, and it was also the most noble pure spiritual-type Evil Eye. And its strength, I'm afraid, was really a great stroke of luck for Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao was overjoyed. My luck is too heaven-defying, isn't it? Whatever I want, it comes! There's no reason for me not to eat this dish that has been served up! However, to kill the one before him seemed not so easy.
"Who lives and who dies, we'll only know after a fight!" he laughed loudly. If it were a hundred-thousand-year Evil Eye with other mixed attributes, Huo Yuhao would probably really have to temporarily avoid its sharpness. A hundred-thousand-year soul beast was equivalent to a human Titled Douluo, not something his current cultivation could contend with. He was able to defeat the Time Douluo Shi Xing entirely because the latter did not have any real strong attack methods.
But if this Evil Eye was really just a pure spiritual-type, then it would be different again. Huo Yuhao's soul power was far inferior to his opponent's, but if it was purely in terms of spiritual cultivation, even against a hundred-thousand-year Evil Eye, he had the confidence to fight.
A brownish-brown soul ring slowly rose from under his feet. Huo Yuhao directly clasped his hands together, preparing to shout whatever he was thinking.
When that hundred-thousand-year Evil Eye Tyrant saw the only brownish-brown soul ring on his body, its huge pupil obviously contracted a little.
Just as humans were familiar with soul beasts, with this Evil Eye Tyrant's hundred-thousand-year cultivation, how could it not understand human soul masters?
In the original novel, the Fire Evil Tyrant that had become Orange's soul spirit was precisely the beloved concubine of the one before him. Although the escaped trace of the Fire Evil Tyrant's soul was not enough to be resurrected, it was still enough to transmit the news of its own death to the pure Evil Eye Tyrant before him. With his beloved concubine killed, this one was naturally furious and had immediately rushed over.
The Ten Thousand Demon King's soul ring rose. Huo Yuhao's delicate and childish little face instantly showed strange patterns. A terrifying aura that only a ferocious beast possessed erupted from his small body.
This was the true power that the Immortal Spirit Wood martial soul had bestowed upon Huo Yuhao, the Immortal Spirit Body!
