Douluo Continent: The Cataclysm of the Dead - Huo Yuhao

These words put Meng Hongchen's tense heart at ease.

But soon, her brother played a joke on her.

As Xiao Hongchen released his martial spirit, the Three-Legged Golden Toad martial spirit flashed, and the moment the first spirit ring flashed, a dozen or so cannon barrels rapidly condensed.

And that was none other than a Level 2 Soul Guidance Paralysis Ray.

Although the effect on ten thousand-year-old soul beasts is minimal, a dozen or so combined can still have some impact.

Before Meng Hongchen could even speak to stop him, Xiao Hongchen said with a slightly smug tone.

"Uncle Jiayi, let me help you!"

A dozen or so soul-guided rays, already assembled and loaded, all focused their light on a dinosaur bear.

If it were a normal ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, it might actually be affected to some extent. After all, even a second-level soul guide paralysis ray can have some effect on a thousand-year-old soul beast. So, ten or so rays combined should be able to buy a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast some time. And in Xiao Hongchen's opinion, that time was...

This is enough to help Lin Jiayi turn around his current difficult situation.

However, this is ultimately just Xiao Hongchen's conjecture.

Lin Jiayi's face turned completely pale the moment he saw Xiao Hongchen intervene in the war.

As one of the top-tier soul beasts, the ten or so soul-guided paralyzing rays from the Terrorclaw Bear not only failed to completely paralyze him for a moment, but instead aroused his anger.

The two brothers exchanged a glance, and the more powerful, nearly 20,000-year-old Devilclaw Bear suddenly launched an attack.

Ignoring everything else, it directly entangled Lin Jiayi, while the slightly younger, ten-thousand-year-old dinosaur pterosaur headed straight for the two siblings.

The two siblings are now Great Soul Masters. Even if they were Soul Venerables, they would surely die if they were to face a ten-thousand-year-old Terrorclaw Bear in close combat.

Even though Meng Hongchen's combat system is close to that of a Soul Master, it still cannot change the fact that he can only be considered a control-type agility-type Soul Master.

Facing the ancient Deinonychus, with its high attack and defense, there is almost only one fate.

This turned the siblings' faces pale, but Lin Jiayi was held back again. Even though their invincible protective shields were triggered just as they were about to get close.

However, it only held out for a moment.

Seeing that the bear's claws were about to land on the brother and sister, Meng Hongchen, despite trembling with fear, stood in front of her brother and released her martial soul, the Zhu Qing Ice Toad, hoping that it would have some effect.

Even though Zhu Qingbingchan's martial soul poison is domineering, Meng Hongchen only has two rings now.

Compared to this Deinonychus, it was still too inexperienced.

Upon seeing this, Lin Jiayi turned completely pale and even considered unleashing his fury, fearing that something might happen to the brother and sister.

So, what awaited him was no different from death, after all, these were Jing Hongchen's most prized and beloved grandchildren.

But when he realized that his sudden outburst might not even get him to the brother and sister's side, his eyes were filled with despair.

At the same time, Xiao Hongchen's original arrogant pride as a genius vanished completely. He was filled with remorse; if it weren't for his recklessness, none of this would have happened...

At that moment, the ancient Deinonychus seemed to freeze in place...

Chapter 16: Making a Move, Appearing

Amidst the flashes of golden light, the Deinonychus seemed to be nailed to the spot.

This caused a hint of confusion to flash in the eyes of the Hongchen siblings, but they quickly realized what was happening and hurriedly put some distance between them.

At the same time, their gazes were also drawn to the golden light; to be precise,

Even Lin Jiayi was stunned for a moment when he came into contact with the illusory figure inside.

What kind of being was it?

Its entire body shimmered with golden light, like a phantom of a golden deer, its golden antlers gleaming with a unique radiance.

The Deinonychus was stunned.

At the same time, Meng Hongchen's eyes sparkled with stars, filled with undisguised pride and affection.

Now, she has never come into contact with this kind of soul beast, but she knows its dreamlike appearance.

For any girl, this is almost a complete defeat.

Furthermore, it seems that this deer was the reason for their rescue.

Therefore, Meng Hongchen couldn't help but look at the deer and speak gratefully.

"Thank you."

At the same time, a hint of confusion flashed in the eyes of the other Deinonychus, which was preparing to fight to the death. Just then, Lin Jiayi successfully seized the opportunity and arrived next to the brother and sister.

The level-seven soul-guided cannon on its shoulder instantly completed its charging and was aimed at the Terrorclaw Bear, which had fallen into a brief daze. By the time the Terrorclaw Bear reacted, the light from the level-seven soul-guided cannon had already engulfed its body.

"boom!!"

"Roar!!"

With a roar filled with resentment, the level-seven soul-guided cannon was already upon the Devilclaw Bear before it could even react, leaving it no time to construct a defense with its soul power. Although the Devilclaw Bear's defense was formidable, it was no match for the level-seven soul-guided cannon head-on.

As the smoke and dust dissipated, the Deinonychus lay completely dead in a pool of blood, severely wounded.

He was exhaling more than he was inhaling, but the confusion and apprehension in his eyes were directed at this so-called deer.

And this 20,000-year-old Deinonychus saw that its younger brother was about to die.

His eyes quickly turned bloodshot, but now his gaze towards Lin Jiayi was full of fear.

Ultimately, it seems that after a period of psychological struggle,

He glared at Lin Jiayi one last time, then roared at tide before dragging his badly injured brother and turning to flee.

There was no way around it; the Deinonychus was quite intelligent and knew that the human in front of it had trespassed into its territory.

However, that was only possible if he and his brother joined forces, and now his brother was already severely injured.

If they continue fighting, his younger brother might really die.

It's important to know that deinonychus typically only give birth to one child at a time, and reproduction is extremely difficult. Therefore, they place great importance on blood ties and family bonds.

At the same time, Lin Jiayi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Generally speaking, the probability of encountering a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast in this outer area is very low. However, he just happened to be unlucky and came to the place where it borders the mixed area, and then he encountered these two beings. To be honest, he would rather not stay any longer than fight them, even though he is a seven-ring Soul Saint.

But he also had to deal with both of them at the same time, and protect the Hongchen siblings.

If it's possible to avoid fighting, it's best to avoid it.

If the same thing happens again, we'll be in big trouble.

Still shaken, Lin Jiayi couldn't help but glance at the deer. After a brief moment of stunned silence, he seemed to confirm the true identity of the road and exclaimed in a tone full of shock.

"Light...Light and Shadow Spirit Deer?!"

This statement puzzled the brother and sister. At the same time, Lin Jiayi took a deep breath and explained to them.

"This is a soul beast that existed in ancient times. It possesses two attributes: spirit and light. Its light attribute is almost perfect. However, it also has a very domineering talent ability, Shadow Illusion, which ignores cultivation level. It can be used once every seven days to pull a person into a short illusion. The stronger the opponent's spiritual power, the faster they can get out of it. The Terrorclaw Bear is not very good at spiritual power, so even the ten-thousand-year-old Terrorclaw Bear could not get out of it in time."

After listening to Lin Jiayi's story, the brother and sister nodded, but Lin Jiayi's eyes were filled with utter confusion.

Because he could sense that this luminous spirit deer was not a real soul beast. However, he had also come into contact with evil soul masters before. The beast souls used by the evil soul masters were filled with so-called willpower and hatred, and their bodies were blood-red. But this luminous spirit deer had an illusory body, as if it had just detached from its physical body, yet it seemed to have retained all its strength.

Soon, his mental scan spotted someone and he couldn't help but speak in a deep voice.

"Come out."

As soon as he finished speaking, a rustling sound came from the woods.

A figure stepped out, and the moment he did, Lin Jiayi's eyes filled with apprehension, while Hongchen and his sister instinctively tightened their grips on their soul tools.

That was none other than Huo Yuhao, except that he was currently in the stage of possessing a martial soul, and the strange Myriad Soul Banner in his hand, along with his cold aura, made him even more striking.

They would subconsciously be mistaken for evil spirit masters, but this caution only lasted for a moment. Soon, when their eyes met Huo Yuhao's, they were stunned.

What kind of eyes are they? Pure gold, filled with a rich, warm light.

This left not only Hongchen and his sister stunned, but even Lin Jiayi was taken aback.

Logically speaking, under normal circumstances, these evil spirit masters who control the power of the dead should fear the power of light the most. But why does the boy in front of him have two completely incompatible powers existing within him, and it seems that this fusion is actually quite harmonious?

This is something that completely defies common sense.

The Hongchen siblings also fell into a brief daze.

"No, the primary attribute of the young man's martial soul is not all undead, nor is it light, but rather the spiritual attribute!"

After Lin Jiayi was the first to react, she sensed the power of Huo Yuhao's martial soul and, upon confirming this, subconsciously gasped.

It would be incredible if two conflicting attributes could be successfully combined and perfectly mastered in one person, but these two powers are not even the main attributes of the young man's martial soul.

Rather, the mental attribute is the other party's primary attribute.

The young man before them was none other than Huo Yuhao. With a casual wave of his Myriad Souls Banner, the luminous spirit deer plunged straight into the banner.

At that moment, he felt a sudden thunderclap in his heart. The boy's ability was undoubtedly to defeat his opponent. It seemed to be something like the ability of an evil spirit master to control the dead.

But he couldn't help but recall the innate skills he had encountered on the road just now. There wasn't even a trace of pain on his body. Could he really be called an undead?

After taking a deep breath and accepting the reality, Lin Jiayi looked at the boy in front of him and said slowly.

"Thank you for saving them."

These words also made Hongchen and his sister realize what was going on.

Chapter 17 Lin Jiayi's Recruitment, Huo Yuhao's Shock!

After witnessing Huo Yuhao's action of retracting the Light and Shadow Spirit Deer.

The Hongchen siblings felt as if the education they had received since childhood had collapsed.

Evil spirit masters can control beast souls; this is something they've known since childhood.

Before my eyes, Huo Yuhao's martial soul appearance does indeed look like that of an evil soul master, but the light power flashing in his eyes, and the power released by the light and shadow spirit deer just now.

These are clearly beings that evil spirit masters cannot control, or even hate, or are restrained by.

It was indeed a bit too counterintuitive for two powers to be combined in one person, but Meng Hongchen remembered the scene of Huo Yuhao saving them earlier, so she took the initiative to step forward. Huo Yuhao nodded gently and then said softly.

"Thank you for saving us."

At the same time, Xiao Hongchen looked at Huo Yuhao's martial soul. Although he didn't have a good impression of him, the strong light power in Huo Yuhao's eyes seemed to prove that he was not an evil soul master.
