Douluo Continent: Starting by controlling the Holy Maiden of the Holy Spirit Cult

Chapter 87: Too Many Cheat Codes

As it turns out, the endurance of a Title Douluo powerhouse is unimaginable, not only in traversing long distances of mountains and rivers, but also in being unable to reach them at close range.

What would normally be a five- or six-day journey for Huo Yuhao was completed in less than half the time thanks to Zhongli Yu's help.

The two flew almost without rest throughout the journey, and similarly, even after they landed and stopped, they did not rest.

Compared to Zhongli Yu's radiant face, Huo Yuhao looked much more listless. Even if his mind was mature, his body was still that of a twelve-year-old boy!

"Stop!" Huo Yuhao quickly reached out to stop Zhong Liyu from peeling him off. He could clearly feel the air getting colder and colder. The chill forced the two to slow down and enter a city to buy warm clothes and replenish their supplies.

Huo Yuhao bought a map. He was currently within the territory of the Heavenly Soul Empire and would continue northwards. Once he reached the northern border of the Heavenly Soul Empire, he would essentially have reached his destination. It's important to understand that Shrek Academy was located in the southeastern part of the Heavenly Soul Empire, bordering the Star Luo Empire. Huo Yuhao's journey was essentially traversing the entire Heavenly Soul Empire, from its southernmost to its northernmost point. The hardship he would endure was unimaginable.

However, Huo Yuhao didn't feel bitter at all. On the contrary, with his beloved woman by his side, he treated it like a honeymoon for the two of them.

Apart from this trip into the city, he had not entered any other cities before reaching northern Xinjiang, and had been resting in the wild the entire time. Among his supplies was a small, foldable tent made of cowhide.

The tent wasn't big, only two meters long and one and a half meters wide. But it was more than enough to accommodate the two of them, plus a warm sleeping bag. As long as they didn't move around too much, they could get a good rest.

On the third day, as they traveled at full speed, they finally entered the vicinity of the northern border of the Heavenly Soul Empire. Upon arriving here, the map in his hand had become completely blank.

The two descended from the sky. Huo Yuhao was a little airsick, and white mist exhaled from his mouth and nose, instantly turning into ice shards that scattered in the air. This place truly was a place where water freezes instantly! A layer of frost had already formed on Huo Yuhao's eyebrows.

Seeing Zhong Liyu excitedly jumping and skipping in the snow, Huo Yuhao gently pulled up the hood of her cotton coat to block the biting wind, afraid that she would catch a cold.

Enjoying the tenderness of her beloved, Zhong Liyu's eyes were practically melting. She had only ever seen such a scene in books when she was a child, followed by years of arduous training and killing.

Carefully examining the map, Huo Yuhao located his position; further north lay a vast open space. A line of small print noted on the map:

"The far north, a forbidden zone for humans. Soul beasts roam here! Danger! Danger! Danger!"

The last three dangers are marked in red.

"Darling, are you sure you want to go in here to hunt for spirit rings?" Zhong Liyu also stared at the blank space on the map. Even with her strength, she dared not say that she was absolutely confident in protecting Huo Yuhao in this dangerous place.

"Okay, you'll enter a space in a bit. If you encounter any danger that I can't handle, I'll release you. It'll be much easier for me to act alone." Without waiting for a reply, Huo Yuhao activated Kamui Hirasaka and put the unaware Zhongli Yu inside.

"My God? What kind of ability is this?" In the Divine Might Space, Zhong Liyu, who was seeing Huo Yuhao's soul skill for the first time, couldn't help but marvel. Huo Yuhao then crawled in as well, indicating that she could rest assured.

"As long as I have this skill, I'll be fine even if I encounter danger," Huo Yuhao said with a smile.

Zhongli Yu was finally relieved. In this space, Huo Yuhao's physique, which constantly absorbed the life energy of heaven and earth, met the conditions for secluded cultivation.

Huo Yuhao's willingness to tell Zhong Liyu this secret was enough to show that he trusted her enough, which made Zhong Liyu very happy. She sat down cross-legged and entered a state of cultivation.

Following the guidance of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's spiritual power, Huo Yuhao continued to venture deeper into this forbidden zone for humans.

When Huo Yuhao reached a certain point, he took off all his clothes as in the original story, preparing to put the remains of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm on his body.

The biting winds of the far north chilled him to the bone almost instantly, feeling as if he were stuffed into a refrigerator. Amidst the icy landscape, one could even see steam rising from Huo Yuhao's body, a phenomenon strikingly similar to Xie Huanyue activating her second soul skill.

Just when he felt he was about to freeze, suddenly, he felt the surrounding scenery change, and a faint golden light slowly emerged from his head. The golden light spread out, driving away all the surrounding chill, and a warm feeling instantly spread throughout his body.

"Ah—" Huo Yuhao groaned in bliss, almost bursting into tears. This feeling was just too stimulating…

Immediately afterwards, a soft white light floated out from his chest, seemingly a piece of skin that had flown out from his chest. The white light spread in the air, quickly growing to the same size as Huo Yuhao, and then slowly imprinted itself on his body.

The Tianmeng brand thermal underwear slowly adhered to Huo Yuhao's body. He felt as if a thin film had been added to his skin. The cold wind from outside immediately slid past him, and he no longer felt the slightest bit of cold.

"The new stuff is nice. I'll make it into a warm and cozy undergarment for Yuhao later," Bibi Dong couldn't help but tease.

"That's the remains of a million-year-old creature! Your Majesty, if you do that, it's a complete waste of resources!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm protested.

"Tsk! A fat sheep for a million years." Bibi Dong mocked with utter contempt, which made Tianmeng Ice Silkworm lose face. After all, Huo Yuhao in this life had the help of a real god's remnant soul, which was different from the original situation where the two of them supported each other and grew together.

"Your Majesty, it's been a long time." Huo Yuhao touched his nose. Ever since Zhongli Yu appeared, Bibi Dong had completely refused to communicate with him.

Now that Zhongli Yu has been locked up in the Divine Might Dark Room, the Empress finally dared to speak up; she has no habit of eavesdropping.

"You've enjoyed the journey, haven't you?" Bibi Dong, knowing someone's character, said sarcastically in an unfriendly tone.

"Not at all! I've been terrified the whole way here because I haven't been able to get an audience with His Majesty!"

Having witnessed someone's shamelessness, Bibi Dong had no intention of continuing the topic. Instead, she looked at Tianmeng Bingcan, who was huddled in the corner trembling, and said, "It should be about time. Go and lure that giant scorpion over."

"Your Majesty, we need to go deeper until we reach the core area of ​​the far north. Bingbing rarely goes out," Tianmeng Ice Silkworm explained weakly.

"Well, let's keep going then." Bibi Dong nodded. Now, she had no choice but to follow Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's guidance, otherwise she would be completely in the dark.

In the blink of an eye, another half day had passed. Huo Yuhao had completely ventured deep into the desolate far north. Along the way, he had encountered some soul beasts. But under the guidance of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, he had never encountered anything that posed a threat to him.

The snow on the road grew thicker and thicker. When the snow was above his knees, Huo Yuhao had to cut down trees to make two sleds and tie them to his feet so that he could at least distribute his weight better. When going downhill, he could even glide for a while.

After venturing deeper into the far north, his speed slowed considerably, but he had still traveled at least four hundred miles into the far north. Furthermore, the frequency with which the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm caused him to change direction began to increase rapidly.

For some reason, Huo Yuhao did not encounter the Titan Snow Demon King from the original story, and the smoothness of his journey even made him feel that something was wrong.

The three Heavenly Kings of the Far North all have noble origins, and the bloodline of the Ice God, a first-level deity of the divine realm, lies within them. There are even rumors that the Ice God's legacy is located in this far north.

To better conceal himself, Huo Yuhao had to put away his sled and slow down, moving cautiously through the snow, which was more than half a meter thick. He was now absolutely certain that without the remains of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, he would have been turned into an ice sculpture in less than fifteen minutes in this place.

In this desolate place, even the snowflakes were hard. The biting wind whipped up the snowflakes from the ground, creating layers of icy powder that were comparable to a Soul King's all-around soul skill attack. When the wind was strong, he had to crawl on the ground. Huo Yuhao wasn't afraid of the cold now, but that didn't mean he wasn't afraid of the wind.

Because of the extremely low temperature, Huo Yuhao sometimes felt that the light on the horizon was distorted. There was also a magnificent seven-colored halo here that was not found in other places, which is the so-called aurora.

"It's so beautiful." Bibi Dong rarely praised it. In her previous life, she never had the opportunity to travel to this far north. Unexpectedly, after her death, she came here with Huo Yuhao.

"Alright, the location should be about right now. Next, all we need to do is wait and wait." Tianmeng Ice Silkworm said excitedly, "Yuhao, you should rest for a while, and then do as I say."

Upon hearing that he didn't need to go any deeper, Huo Yuhao finally breathed a sigh of relief, as he had now fully entered the core area of ​​this far north.

Not only was the temperature extremely low in this place, but Huo Yuhao also encountered several soul beasts. Their strength was so formidable that even a glimpse from afar sent chills down his spine! They were all beings at least ten thousand years old. In this forbidden zone of life, not even a thousand-year-old soul beast could be seen.

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's originally languid voice echoed in Huo Yuhao's mind, but at this moment its voice became more serious than ever before: "Yuhao, how long can you endure in this low temperature without the protection of my remains?"

Huo Yuhao was taken aback. His current strength far surpassed that of the original story at the same stage. After thinking for a moment, he said, "If I fully activate my soul power, an hour should be possible. But at most, no more than an hour and a half."

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm said, "If I want to lure the Ice Emperor here now, I must release my aura. Then, whether it can become your core soul ring depends on this remains of mine. Therefore, after I lure it here as before, I will have to negotiate with it. You must hold on, otherwise all our efforts will be in vain."

"Don't worry, with me here, at worst he can hide in the Divine Might Space." Bibi Dong leaned lazily on the throne, feeling that Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's caution was unnecessary.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was immediately speechless. Huo Yuhao had far more cheat codes in this life than in the original story. With that abnormal third soul skill, as long as he wasn't instantly killed, it seemed that there was really no one on this continent who could truly threaten him.
