Douluo Continent: The Eternal Order of the Azure Sky.

Yes, this is indeed ruling the world, but it is not Mu En's ruling the world, but Huo Yuhao's ruling the world, ruling the beam!

By sensing every detail of the surrounding environment through mental detection, it perfectly combines mental power with simulated soul skills, mental interference, and physical actions. In the words of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, it is simply an essential stealth technique for petty theft and robbery.

Although it was detected by the temperature-sensing soul tool set up by Kong Tianxu when it infiltrated Mingde Hall, its use at this moment had an unexpected effect.

Chapter 285 Five Years of Hidden Strength Endure a Series of Defeats, Six Rings and Six Bones, Huo Peak

Long Aotian lost his target.

The power of the entire body, gathered together, deviated from its original trajectory and slammed into the ground at the edge of the arena!

"Boom—!"

An unprecedented, terrifying roar erupted instantly, and a white mushroom cloud exploded, causing the sky and earth to change color. All the protective shields on the arena burst forth with their strongest light, indicating that they had raised their defenses to the highest level.

The entire arena trembled. Debris flew everywhere, and dust billowed into the sky. A large section of the arena's edge collapsed, and cracks spread wildly like a spider web.

Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao had quietly shifted his position amidst the smoke and dust.

His spirit rings changed once again.

With six spirit rings—two yellow, two purple, and two black—flickering in turn, Huo Yuhao's spiritual power instantly reached its peak. His eyes seemed to have been cast in pure gold, and even his long hair was dyed gold.

Long Aotian groaned. Mental disturbance, weakness, dizziness—all sorts of negative states flooded his consciousness like a tidal wave.

How could his mental power affect me so obviously?

Only now did Long Aotian feel genuine surprise.

This person is only at the sixth level of cultivation, yet he can raise his mental power to this level. But isn't he afraid that his mental sea will explode?

"He has a soul bone in his head, which should stabilize his spiritual sea."

On the viewing platform, Kong Tianxu immediately gave his assessment, then leaned back lazily in his chair.

That's not surprising, that's not surprising at all.

However, by choosing such a useless long-term soul bone for the head, which is the most important part for a spirit-type soul master, Huo Yuhao has indeed squandered his potential to an extremely low level.

At this moment, it seemed as if blood-red flames were spewing from Huo Yuhao's eyes, and a strong, nauseating smell of blood permeated the air.

Behind him, the fifth and sixth spirit rings flashed alternately, revealing a huge phantom head.

The phantom head resembled a human in appearance, except for its forehead, which was covered in wrinkles and deep furrows, and its skin, which was bluish-gray. Two enormous fangs protruded from its lower lip, and its snow-white fur was as bushy as a lion's mane.

"Titan Snow Demon?"

Long Aotian immediately recognized the soul beast as being the same type as the sect he was impersonating.

The next moment, the huge, bell-like eyes on the head of the Titan Snow Demon phantom widened to their limit, and two beams of light, as if they were real, burst forth from those giant eyes!

Long Aotian's body froze on the spot.

At the same time, Huo Yuhao suddenly looked up, and in an instant, his eyes suddenly brightened, and two light golden beams shot out from his eyes, heading straight for Long Aotian.

The fifth soul skill of the 20,000-year-old Crimson Baboon is Spiritual Bloodlust and Frenzy; the sixth soul skill of the 25,000-year-old Titan Snow Demon is Titan Snow Demon's Intimidation.

In addition, there was Huo Yuhao's long-hidden soul attack.

In the previous battle, Huo Yuhao used the extremely powerful close-range amplification and burst soul skills brought by the Titan Snow Demon from the very beginning, creating the illusion that his current core ability was mainly close combat.

But in reality, what is Huo Yuhao's greatest reliance? It's the million-year soul ring and soul skill bestowed upon him by the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm!

After Huo Yuhao and Qian Duoduo killed four nine-thousand-year-old Titan Snow Demons, two ten-thousand-year-old Titan Snow Demons also broke away from their clan and arrived at the scene.

They are a male and a female, and according to Qian Duoduo's speculation, they are very likely the parents of the Titan Snow Demon Base Four.

To their utter surprise, after killing it, they found a priceless head soul bone on the female Titan Snow Demon.

At that time, Huo Yuhao's soul power level had reached the peak of level 59. Furthermore, due to the long-term imbalance between his spiritual power cultivation and soul power cultivation, he desperately needed a powerful enough head soul bone to stabilize his spiritual sea, so that he could fully exert the spiritual power he absorbed from the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.

Titan Snow Demon, however, also possesses spiritual attributes.

Is it better to abandon this priceless Titan Snow Demon head spirit bone in order to have a better future after acquiring the head spirit bone?

It's best to absorb this soul bone while it's still fresh from its explosion and when its stored energy is at its peak, and also transform the soul rings of those two ten-thousand-year-old Titan Snow Demons into your own power, so that your strength can reach its peak before the competition.

It was another difficult choice. Huo Yuhao could now fully understand Ice Emperor's disgust for the Titan Snow Demon race. He was also utterly disgusted by the Titan Snow Demon race.

Ultimately, without much hesitation, Huo Yuhao made his choice.

Regardless, a ten-thousand-year-old Titan Snow Demon is always far, far better than a thousand-year-old one.

With all six soul bones in his body, Huo Yuhao's future path may be uncertain, but at least in the short term, his strength will definitely be at the pinnacle among young soul masters across the entire continent!

Kong Tianxu's guess was absolutely right. Driven by Huo Yuhao's strong desire and spiritual power, the Titan Snow Demon Soul Bone also gave him the most urgently needed but also the most useless skill—Mental Stability.

It can be seen that Huo Yuhao's first spirit ring shines brightly, with a lustrous yellow-white sheen. Because he has raised his spiritual power to the extreme, his simulated spirit skill can no longer conceal the true color of the spirit ring.

Even with Huo Yuhao's current abilities, launching such a series of attacks was already at his limit. In fact, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm had already begun to channel its spiritual power into his spiritual sea.

If it weren't for the Titan Snow Demon Soul Bone, his brain would have exploded by now.

Two gradually changing golden beams streaked across the sky and instantly arrived in front of Long Aotian.

However, facing Huo Yuhao's extremely insidious and vicious mental attack, Long Aotian stood still without moving. Instead, he made a strange gesture with his hands in front of his chest: his right hand was raised with the palm facing left and the fingertips pointing down, while his left hand was raised with the fingertips pointing up, the palm facing the right hand.

With just this simple pose, a layer of lustrous sheen emanated from his body. In that translucent light, he appeared as if he had transformed into a jade sculpture. The surface of his skin shimmered with light.

A strange scene unfolded: all seven spirit rings on Long Aotian's body lit up at the same time, and not only that, a silvery-white light shone behind him.

It was in the form of a humanoid phantom, its silvery-white light almost tangible, and its powerful aura seemed to exert a crushing force on the entire arena.

On the competition stage, Huo Yuhao was already struggling to breathe. The appearance of the silver-white figure behind Long Aotian made him feel as if he were being crushed by a mountain. The ground around him even creaked and groaned, as if the entire competition stage was about to collapse under the pressure.

"Buzz—" The soul was struck.

Huo Yuhao's spiritual torrent, powerful enough to crush an ordinary Soul Saint, struck the jade sculpture that Long Aotian had transformed into with perfect accuracy, instantly illuminating a layer of dazzling pale gold. But then, with a flash of silver light, the pale gold layer dissipated.

Long Aotian's body swayed slightly, and the shimmering light emanating from him became somewhat scattered.

Huo Yuhao, as if struck by lightning, let out a muffled groan, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

This is...? A second awakening of the original martial soul? It's incredibly powerful!

Yes, that's how strong it is! In a head-on collision, this is absolutely terrifying power!

Unlike in the original story, Huo Yuhao did not achieve his second awakening through the "Looking Through the Autumn Water Dew". The second awakening of his main body martial soul is a completely uncharted territory for him!

Even though he already knew something about the second awakening of the main body martial soul from Moon's words, how could he not be horrified by this terrifying improvement?

Silver, a second awakening of the silver level. In just an instant, the power in Long Aotian's body reached the effect of multiplying in all aspects. Even if it was not a second awakening of gold like Kong Tianxu's, it was still so powerful!

Huo Yuhao's back was soaked with cold sweat.

The Shrek Academy members were shocked to discover that the younger generation of the Body Sect possessed such a powerful figure.

Even on the platform, Xu Tianran, Jing Hongchen, and Zhong Liwu's auras fluctuated after seeing the silvery-white light and shadow behind Long Aotian.

Long Aotian, having gained the upper hand, pressed his advantage relentlessly. He made a feinting motion with both palms towards Huo Yuhao below.

Instantly, the silver-white figure behind him swelled its arms in the wind, each growing to over ten meters in length and over five meters in width. The two gigantic hands descended fiercely, heading straight for Huo Yuhao's head.

Before his palms even arrived, the ground around Huo Yuhao's body had already begun to collapse, revealing palm-shaped imprints.

A terrifying pressure, as heavy as a mountain, had already descended.

Huo Yuhao roared, and his entire torso erupted with a strong emerald green light that condensed and did not dissipate.

My five years of hard work will not be in vain, the Wrath of the Ice Emperor!

The extreme ice, enveloped in a powerful emerald light, slammed fiercely towards the two giant silver hands, the two constantly rubbing against each other and emitting a dazzling bluish-white radiance.

The Ice Emperor's Wrath was unleashed by Huo Yuhao in the form of a continuous pillar of light. The bones in his torso shone with a green light, and a series of powerful counter-forces came from him. Huo Yuhao had to lower his arms and support himself on his limbs to maintain his balance.

The situation seems to have reached a stalemate.

"I noticed before that although you have great physical strength, your control over your body is really terrible."

A figure appeared behind me without my noticing.

when?!

Huo Yuhao turned around in shock!

A giant hand was frozen in mid-air.

At the same time, Long Aotian reached out and, silently and like a ghost, grabbed Huo Yuhao by the back of the head.

"Especially the waist."

Then press it down hard!

Golden light flashed, and the invincible shield was activated in time under the reminder of the mental detection, but Huo Yuhao was still forced into the broken stones of the arena by Long Aotian's palm!

"It doesn't hurt!"

Huo Yuhao did a push-up, angrily raised his head, and the spirit rings on his body began to ripple violently like water!

He was about to explode!

But then he suddenly saw Kong Tianxu on the high platform, a half-smile on his face, his mocking gaze seemingly a scornful mockery of his incompetence.

endure.

He had to endure it.

A temporary setback is insignificant; the most important thing is to defeat Kong Tianxu and become the champion!

He wants to play his biggest card to achieve the best effect.

But after five years of concealing its sharpness, it was revealed in a single day, and the sword broke from its sheath!

Who can understand the hatred here?

"The runner-up is just the runner-up; they can't even win in the preliminaries." Xiao Hongchen curled his lip.

"Yuhao!" Wang Dong'er cried out, her eyes filled with tears and a murderous aura, while Wang Qiu'er's gaze was complicated.

Another giant hand followed closely behind and slammed down.

His eyes darted around in a fierce struggle, and Huo Yuhao roared:

"Referee, I concede!"

A brilliant silver light descended from the sky and suddenly enveloped his body.
