Douluo Continent: The Incarnation of a Divine Beast, Sister Huo Yutong!

Chapter 11 Soul Power Limit
Although he had initially drafted a money-making plan, Huo Yuhao did not rush to take action. Instead, he spent three days thoroughly figuring out how the Gene Wedge worked.

Over the past three days, he has used different identities each time to buy soul beasts from different stalls, ranging from newborn cubs to ten-year-old adult soul beasts.

Fortunately, there were quite a few people buying soul beasts, so he wasn't targeted by anyone.

After numerous experiments, Huo Yuhao discovered that the Gene Wedge was not as miraculous as he had imagined, and still had some flaws.

First of all, the soul power orbs cannot be absorbed indefinitely; absorbing too many will risk causing the soul power to go berserk.

After disintegrating the ten-year-old soul beast, Huo Yuhao absorbed the soul power ball as usual. Unexpectedly, the soul power suddenly went berserk after entering his body, almost bursting his meridians.

In the critical moment, Huo Yuhao quickly channeled the rampaging soul power into his flesh and blood, and used his powerful blood energy to forcefully dissipate the soul power.

Afterwards, Huo Yuhao thought about it for a long time and finally concluded that the problem was not with the gene wedge, but with himself.

A ten-year-old soul beast, and a fully grown one at that, would have a soul power level of around level three for a human soul master.

Huo Yuhao absorbed four or five small beasts, but his soul power level only barely reached half a level.

To devour a level three being with half a level is like a python swallowing an elephant; a runaway of soul power is inevitable.

At his current level, the best choice is those soul beast cubs or soul beasts less than ten years old, otherwise there is still a risk of soul power going berserk.

As a result, Huo Yuhao's original dream of leveling up every three days and becoming a god in a year was shattered.

The only thing that might bring him some comfort is the blood and qi spheres.

As things stand, there is no upper limit to the absorption of Qi and Blood Spheres; they can absorb indefinitely.

Of course, it's also possible that his physical attributes are comparable to those of a hundred-year-old soul beast, so he didn't reach his limit like his soul power.

In addition, there is bad news.

Huo Yuhao once tried to get Huo Yutong to absorb the soul power ball, but after she absorbed it, she only recovered her soul power, and her soul power limit did not increase.

In other words, for anyone other than him, the soul power orb can only serve to replenish soul power.

The same principle applies to Qi and Blood Spheres, the only difference being that Qi and Blood Spheres can heal injuries.

As for the power of bloodline, no suitable soul beast has been found yet, so it is impossible to predict.

Although he lost a chance to take off, Huo Yuhao was not too discouraged.

In any case, he now has the opportunity to improve his soul power, even if it is slow, it is still better than the previous hopeless state.

Moreover, his so-called slowness is only relative.

If other Soul Masters knew that he had increased his Soul Power by half a level in just three days, they would probably be completely astonished.

Inside the Soul Power Training Room, Huo Yuhao slowly opened his eyes, skillfully activating the Platinum Pearl to summon the Reversal World to clear the sand pile in front of him.

"It's improved a little more..."

"Now, should we be considered half a level?"

Seeing the faint white light surrounding his body, Huo Yuhao was overjoyed, but when he remembered the ten-year-old soul beast that almost caused him to explode and die, his joy instantly turned into regret.

Damn it, if I had known I couldn't absorb it, I would never have bought that Crimson Flame Tiger!
The Crimson Flame Tiger is a high-level soul beast with a bloodline level significantly higher than that of soul beasts like the Soft Bone Rabbit, and its price naturally rises accordingly.

Previously, Huo Yuhao was unaware that there was a limit to the absorption of soul power, and foolishly spent two hundred gold soul coins to buy it, which almost killed him in the end.

If Huo Yuhao hadn't absorbed the blood and energy of the Crimson Flame Tiger and broken through the Soul Venerable limit in terms of physical fitness, he probably would have held a grudge against this race for the rest of his life!

"Brother~"

Upon seeing Huo Yuhao emerge, Huo Yutong, who was holding a book of soul beast illustrations, brightened up, casually dropped the book, and hugged Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao bought these picture books at the market to entertain the little girl and, incidentally, to teach her some knowledge.

It contains pictures and descriptions of some common spirit beasts, which can be considered a way to acquire knowledge.

Of course, the illustrations in the picture book are limited. If you want more in-depth knowledge, you'll have to go to Shrek Academy to study.

Huo Yuhao had reason to suspect that these picture books were circulated from Shrek Academy.

He had also considered buying some books about soul tools, but unfortunately, the ideas in Douluo Three Kingdoms were rigid, making the development of soul tools difficult.

The relevant books are either controlled by powerful forces or are too expensive for Huo Yuhao to obtain at present.

If he couldn't find a suitable book on soul tools, Huo Yuhao even considered going to the Sun Moon Empire to plunder.

"No~"

Huo Yutong nuzzled her little head against Huo Yuhao's chest before slowly raising her head, blinking her bright blue eyes, and saying with a face full of grievance:
"It's so boring here~"

"Brother, when are you going to take me and Mom out for fun?"

Because they were unclear about the power structure of Shrek City, Huo Yun'er and Xiao Yutong had stayed at home these past few days, except for Huo Yuhao who occasionally went out.

Although the new house is big and beautiful, the little girl has already explored it all in three days.

"Yutong, listen to your brother!"

Hearing the little girl's complaint, Huo Yun'er glared at her, and Huo Yutong immediately shrank back, hiding her small body in Huo Yuhao's arms. Looking at the little girl sitting on Huo Yuhao's waist, Huo Yun'er's eyes flickered, her gaze moving over Huo Yuhao, and she only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Huo Yuhao's expression was normal.

Unlike the lively and active Huo Yutong, Huo Yun'er didn't like noisy environments and preferred to stay at home.

In the White Tiger Duke's mansion, the servants hardly spoke to her; her only interaction was with her two children.

Over time, this fostered her preference for quiet.

Huo Yun'er was also aware of Huo Yuhao's predicament; with her appearance, she could easily cause unnecessary trouble.

Although Shrek City is safe and few Soul Masters cause trouble, she dared not gamble.

Huo Yuhao pinched the little girl's cheek. Thanks to the magical Moo Moo Milk, the little girl's cheeks became very elastic and felt great to the touch.

The little girl wanted to resist, but suddenly heard Huo Yuhao above her speak:
"That was my oversight..."

"Mother, shall I take you and Yutong out for a walk tonight?"

"Shrek City is very lively at night..."

Noticing the hesitation on Huo Yun'er's face, Huo Yuhao quickly said:
"Going out for a walk is a good thing..."

"You don't want Yutong to stay at home all the time, do you?"

Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's voice, the little girl nodded repeatedly and looked at Huo Yun'er with expectant eyes.

"But…"

Huo Yun'er touched her face, looking slightly hesitant.

"It's very dark at night, so if all else fails, you can wear a veil..."

"Besides, I'll protect you..."

As he spoke, Huo Yuhao picked up the little girl in his arms and rocked her up and down, as if to say that he was very strong and could protect them.

Seeing the usually calm and collected Huo Yuhao make such a funny move, Huo Yun'er covered her mouth and chuckled, nodding repeatedly.

Seeing that her mother had agreed, the little girl immediately exclaimed in surprise, then quickly kissed Huo Yuhao on the cheek.

Huo Yuhao took it as a sign of affection between siblings. After rubbing the little blue head, he put the girl down and walked towards the gate.

"I'm going out for a bit, I'll be back before tonight..."

"Um...be careful..."

As Huo Yuhao's figure gradually disappeared, Huo Yun'er's smile slowly faded, her delicate brows furrowed, and her eyes were filled with heartache.

From the White Tiger Duke's Mansion to Shrek City, Huo Yuhao never rested and was always on the move.

Other children at this age are all pampered by their parents; none of them have to work as hard as he does.

Thinking of this, Huo Yun'er felt a pang of pain in her heart, and her fair and delicate hands instinctively covered her chest.

"Mother…"

Seeing Huo Yun'er like this, the little girl quickly helped her up.

"Mom, are you okay?"

"I'm fine...I'm fine..."

Huo Yun'er quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, then hugged the little girl.

Huo Yutong, who is usually restless, was now quietly nestled in Huo Yun'er's arms.

“Rainy Eyes…”

"Mother, Yutong is..."

"From now on, you must listen to your brother..."

"Mmm, don't worry..."

Hearing Huo Yutong's voice, Huo Yun'er smiled and subconsciously reached out her delicate hand to gently comb Huo Yutong's hair.

"Remember what I said today..."

"From now on, you must...you absolutely must listen to your brother..."

"Oh...I know...I'll definitely listen to my brother from now on..."

"Mother...you're acting strange today..."

"You'll find out later..."

Huo Yun'er's expression was somewhat mysterious, and she did not explain no matter how the little girl asked.
