The blood sacrifices of the three were completed one after another. Three blood-red soul rings descended.
Watching this, Lan Susu and the others' eyes were practically burning red!
Heavens!
Three 100,000-year soul rings!
[Altered the fate of Huo Yuhao, Zhang Lexuan, and Tang Ya. +75,000 Fortune Points!]
Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered.
So much?
It probably wasn't just from the immortal herbs; part of it must be due to Zhang Lexuan and Tang Ya's genuine loyalty.
Let me see what the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew brought me...
"Bzzz—"
But the impatient Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew couldn't wait and abruptly began its sacrifice.
—Who cares about chatting or not? With Octagonal Grass around, it wouldn't be lonely anyway.
Huo Yuhao didn't even have time to check his gains, hastily focusing on carving the Soul Spirit Equal Contract.
Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew still had some sense, waiting until Huo Yuhao finished before activating the Blood Sacrifice Space to clear the area.
Huo Yuhao finally caught his breath, only for his vision to darken.
"Swish, swish, swish—"
It was Tang Ya's Dark Blue Silver Grass. The dark blue vines, crystalline and translucent, emitted a deep, captivating sapphire-like luster.
They could snatch away one's heart and mind.
But if mental power got too close, it would be completely devoured.
—This thing actually counters Mental Masters?
"Wow!" Tang Ya exclaimed in surprise. "Little Yuhao, your mental power is so condensed! It's really hard to digest!"
"It can be digested?" Huo Yuhao was stunned. "Those mental powers... Sister Xiao Ya, can you convert and replenish yourself with them?"
"Of course," Tang Ya said proudly.
"Devouring and converting is the most basic ability of the Dark Blue Silver Grass. Before, I used to sneak into the forest after class to devour things. Otherwise, how could I keep up with the academy's training pace?"
A small purple figure emerged from between Tang Ya's eyebrows and pointed outside the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well.
"Go devour those poisonous mists and the poisonous flowers! Use them to refine the ultimate poison for your Dark Blue Silver Grass!"
"Snow, can I even devour those?"
"I said you can, so you can! Charge!"
"Alrighty!"
Tang Ya excitedly headed out, scaring Beibei into quickly following her.
This was a "Forbidden Land", not a place to wander around recklessly.
"Hey! Brother Beibei, wait!" Huo Yuhao called out. "You haven't received your immortal herb yet!"
Mu En reacted extremely quickly.
In a flash, he tossed Beibei back and followed Tang Ya out himself.
Anyway, it was safe inside the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well, so he didn't need to stand guard here.
"Let me introduce."
Huo Yuhao patted Beibei and said—
"Beibei, 15 years old, Rank 42. Martial Soul: Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, which can unstably evolve into the Holy Light Dragon."
"That's my teacher's Martial Soul, with the potential to reach Rank 99, a Limit Douluo."
"Furthermore, with my help, he also has a chance to become a god in the future."
As he spoke, he activated the snowflake mark between his eyebrows. A wisp of icy aura spread out.
Most people present hadn't seen much of the world and only felt that Huo Yuhao had suddenly become "unattainably high and mighty."
But the group of immortal herbs had been personally planted by Tang San back in the day and had been exposed to the aura of gods.
"Oh!"
A earthy yellow shadow shot out from the ground, transforming into the form of a sturdy, powerful man-like miniature figure.
Octagonal Grass also popped out.
"Well, well, Land Dragon Golden Melon, you dull fellow, finally woke up after sleeping for over three thousand years?"
"I sensed a god's aura and came out to take a look." Land Dragon Golden Melon locked onto Huo Yuhao. "You... are a human?"
"Yes," Huo Yuhao replied. "I have received the Ice God's Nine Trials. Upon completion, I will become the Ice God."
"I can sense a powerful draconic aura on you," Land Dragon Golden Melon moved closer. "How about it, do you want me to help you... Hmm?"
Land Dragon Golden Melon cut itself off and sniffed carefully again.
"Your draconic aura is faint but exceptionally pure... It feels even higher than mine..."
"Of course!" Octagon Grass said proudly. "Yuhao's second martial soul is the Water Dragon King!"
Land Dragon Golden Melon's form twisted for a moment, taking several seconds to return to normal.
But it seemed Octagon Grass had some grudge against it and began pouring out everything that had happened at the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well during this period.
Listening to it, Land Dragon Golden Melon felt like... it had just taken a nap, and the outside world had changed this much?
It then quickly locked onto Beibei.
"Human, although I am earth-attribute, I can promote the evolution of snake-type and sub-dragon martial souls, and enhance the purity of dragon bloodlines."
"I can also consolidate your foundation and make up for defects in your cultivation base. I can stabilize your unstable Holy Light Dragon evolution."
"I will become your soul spirit, and you take me to see the outside world."
"If you can become a god in the future, reshape a true dragon body for me."
"How about it?"
Beibei was thrilled!
Was the problem with his martial soul finally going to be solved?
But he quickly realized something and looked towards Xu Sanshi, who was trying hard to restrain himself.
—Promoting snake-type and sub-dragon martial soul evolution, consolidating foundations and making up for defects... these were also applicable to the Xuanwu Shield!
In fact, as an earth-attribute, Land Dragon Golden Melon was even more compatible with Xu Sanshi!
Xu Sanshi clearly realized this too but was forcing himself not to speak up.
He didn't want to steal Beibei's opportunity.
Beibei hesitated slightly.
He still said to Land Dragon Golden Melon: "Actually, Sanshi is more suitable for you than I am. His martial soul's innate ability..."
He explained the reasons.
Land Dragon Golden Melon thought for a moment, then looked at Xu Sanshi.
"Human, how about I go with you instead?"
"This..." Xu Sanshi said hesitantly, "After all, you chose Beibei first. I..."
"How about we let Yuhao decide," Jiang Nannan suddenly suggested.
"Sounds good to me," Beibei agreed.
Two against one; Xu Sanshi gave up arguing.
Everyone simultaneously looked at Huo Yuhao.
Beibei felt particularly emotional inwardly.
That thin, weak young boy he had encountered less than half a year ago had undergone a magnificent transformation, becoming someone who could now determine his own destiny.
Really...
"Attribute-wise, Brother Sanshi is more compatible, right?" Huo Yuhao said. "As for Brother Beibei, I have a better arrangement for him."
He looked up towards the sky, preparing to call out.
"Thwack!"
A "spatial knuckle" knocked him on the head.
Huo Yuhao clutched his head, grimacing in pain.
"You spendthrift!"
Zhuge Lan roared unusually—
"You dare give away the god-grade Yearning Heartbroken Red?"
"This guy is a Power Attack System! Just give him the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum!"
"I have plans for the Yearning Heartbroken Red in the future! None of the companion plants in your hands are allowed to be given out!"
"Did you hear me?"
Huo Yuhao shrunk his neck.
It was the first time he had seen Brother Lan so furious. It seemed this Yearning Heartbroken Red was truly important.
He could only look towards a large chrysanthemum.
"This is the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum. Ingesting it allows energy to flow through the four limbs and eight meridians, and can train one to have a Diamond Vajra Body."
"It should also greatly advance the Muscle Transformation Manual."
"So I'll give you the second stage first, to avoid wasting it later."
Huo Yuhao raised his hand and tapped between his eyebrows, extracting a small blue sphere of light.
This was made of pure mental power as a carrier, capable of replicating certain information.
He had gotten the inspiration from skill books.
The small blue sphere of light entered Beibei's forehead; it would take some time to digest.
Huo Yuhao walked up to the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum.
"So, what do you think? Are you satisfied with Brother Beibei? He's a seedling capable of becoming a god, you know!"
"Or you can also choose Brother Sanshi; the Defense System suits you well too."
