Chapter 157 The Eye of the Mind
After returning to the Star Emperor Hotel, Huo Yuhao immediately went back to his room.
Under Huo Yuhao's arrangement, Tang Yi returned to Tiandou City with the Zhengtian Academy team.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao placed the Life Gold Engraving Knife between his eyebrows, and then a surge of powerful spiritual energy flowed from his Niwan Palace and into the Life Gold Engraving Knife.
Instantly, an extremely rich and vigorous life force poured into Huo Yuhao's Niwan Palace from between his eyebrows.
Huo Yuhao's entire body was stained blue, even his Niwan Palace was no exception.
The life force nourished Huo Yuhao's body, giving him an unprecedented sense of clarity.
Huo Yuhao had a hunch that after he became a Soul King, his fourth Soul Ring would inevitably be upgraded to the 100,000-year level.
His cultivation speed also increased from the speed of a level 7.5 innate soul power to the speed that a level 8 should have.
These few seconds brought Huo Yuhao an extraordinary opportunity.
No wonder.
Huo Yuhao opened his eyes: "No wonder Elder Yi said that if he wanted to create a magical body for him, the metal of life would be indispensable. It can be regarded as living metal."
"If you use it to carve the core array of the soul guide, it will probably develop its own spirituality over time."
"But if we were to use the power of the mind to 'accelerate' it, I fear an unprecedented metallic life form would be born immediately."
After expressing his feelings, Huo Yuhao followed Electrolux's guidance and used his mental power to change the direction of the Life Carving Knife.
The tip of the carving knife was aimed at the Niwan Palace and plunged in, instantly disappearing into Huo Yuhao's skull where the restrictions had been lifted.
What Huo Yuhao wanted to do was not to absorb all the living beings carving knives, but to use their power to condense a third eye for himself.
According to Electrolux, as long as the soul bone provided by Xue Di is of sufficient quality, Huo Yuhao's current absorption of some life gold will not have much impact on his future body.
The wound on his forehead began to throb.
Under Huo Yuhao's guidance, the muscles and bones underwent continuous changes, using the life force within the Metal of Life.
Before Electrolux proposed this method, Huo Yuhao's previous idea was to refine the Spirit Eye into a Mind Ancestral Symbol.
However, Electrox said that a third eye could be condensed using the Life Gold, along with the Spirit Eye Seal, Ice Silkworm Seal, and Magic Seal.
This eye will serve as a vessel for Huo Yuhao's mental power and can be seen as the prototype of a talisman.
In this way, Huo Yuhao will only need to consider how to evolve the Spirit Eye into the Desolate Demon Eye in the future.
He no longer needed to think about how to make the power of desolation and the power of the mind coexist.
A ring of cyan-gold light slowly bloomed on Huo Yuhao's forehead.
"Tianmeng, now it's your turn to make a move with me."
"Your origin is connected to Yuhao, and you can borrow the power of his Ice Silkworm Talisman and Spirit Eye Talisman."
Although I cannot draw upon the power of magical runes, under the influence of the Life Gold and the Martial Scripture, I can now cast some spells that I dared not use before.
Electrox was a remnant soul and shouldn't remember so much magic.
However, the power of the Martial Scripture was too immense; the mere aura it naturally emitted had already nourished Electrolux considerably.
It wasn't just him.
When Ice Emperor first sacrificed herself to Huo Yuhao, her body was somewhat transparent.
But now, thanks to Huo Yuhao's power, after manifesting in the outside world, Ice Emperor's appearance is no different from that of a living person.
Tianmeng nodded.
He and Electrolux formed hand seals at almost the same moment.
Tianmeng manifested her true form, and the power from the Ice Silkworm Seal continuously flowed into the wound on Huo Yuhao's forehead.
Electrolux raised his withered fingers and traced complex magical runes in Huo Yuhao's Niwan Palace.
The intense pain overwhelmed Huo Yuhao, but it wasn't enough to completely erode his reason.
Compared to the pain he felt on the day he removed the White Tiger's double pupils, the pain he was experiencing now was still within Huo Yuhao's tolerance range.
Huo Yuhao gritted his teeth, and the veins on his temples bulged.
A portion of the life-giving metal melted away and merged with Huo Yuhao's flesh and bones.
A completely new and unprecedented sense gradually formed between Huo Yuhao's eyebrows.
But this is not what Huo Yuhao wants.
What he needs is not an ordinary organ, but eyes that can be the vessel of spiritual power.
The eye that was still forming was shattered by Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao used a talisman to fuse the power of the Spirit Eye, the Ice Silkworm, and magic with the life force of the Gold of Life, reconstructing it at the center of his forehead.
This time it is no longer a simple physical organ, but a mind's eye in the form of a pure rune.
Because he had informed everyone in advance that he would be focusing on cultivation for a few days, no one bothered Huo Yuhao during those days.
Huo Yuhao sat silently, constantly breaking his new eye and rebuilding it again.
Three full days passed, and a vertical line finally appeared between Huo Yuhao's eyebrows.
The vertical line overlaps with the vertical line representing the Azure Sky Profound Ice Dragon Martial Soul Seal, making it impossible to detect anything unusual.
Huo Yuhao let out a long breath.
The pattern slowly cracked open, revealing an eye that shimmered with a mysterious light.
"Between reality and illusion."
"It looks like a seal, or a magic rune."
Huo Yuhao earnestly experienced the new perspective brought by the Eye of the Mind.
This eye has a different kind of vision than normal.
It seems to be able to directly see the emotional fluctuations, mental knots, and even the outline of the soul of living beings.
But soon, Huo Yuhao felt a sharp pain in his eye.
"no."
Huo Yuhao closed the eye: "Before I have truly mastered the power of the mind, I cannot use this eye lightly, otherwise it will shatter."
The Eye of the Mind is now like a rough embryo, even worse than the newly formed imprint.
It needs Huo Yuhao to constantly nurture and perfect it before it can unleash its true power.
Huo Yuhao stood up and stretched his somewhat stiff body.
"Next, we just need to wait for the Soul Master Competition to end so we can go to the far north to create a talisman puppet body for Elder Yi."
Huo Yuhao glanced at the clock on the wall and realized that tomorrow was the quarterfinals.
He pushed open the door and walked into the conference room of Di'ao Academy.
Upon seeing Huo Yuhao finish his seclusion, everyone first inquired about his cultivation progress, and then began to talk about the events of the past three days.
"Dai Huabin is dead."
Long Aotian said, "Furthermore, after an official autopsy by the Star Luo Empire, it was determined that he was killed by an evil soul master."
"What a pity." Nan Qiuqiu sighed, "That day, when the evil spirit masters attacked, we couldn't let Captain Huo kill Dai Huabin with his own hands."
Huo Yuhao replied that even if Dai Huabin was gone, there was still Dai Yueheng, who would eventually take care of his enemy himself.
Moreover, Huo Yuhao knew that the so-called death at the hands of evil soul masters was just an excuse given by the Star Luo Empire.
The Star Luo Empire dared not announce that Dai Huabin had died under the claws of the Netherworld Ghost.
"But there's something strange," Xingyan added, "that is, Zhu Lu has disappeared."
"The White Tiger and Netherworld families, along with the Star Luo royal family, mobilized a large number of people to search, but they couldn't find it."
"She's nowhere to be found, neither alive nor dead. We have no idea where Zhu Lu went."
Zhu Lu certainly dared not stay in Xingluo City any longer.
After witnessing Dai Huabin die at the hands of the Netherworld Ghost, she would inevitably believe that the Dai and Zhu families should restore the traditions of ten thousand years ago.
The more these two families contacted her, the more Zhu Lu would believe that they wanted to eliminate her completely.
Therefore, Zhu Lu can run as far as she can.
Zhu Lu, who is determined to survive, is highly likely to flee to a force that has a grudge against the Dai and Zhu families, or one that can protect her.
The answer is thus self-evident: the Heavenly Soul Empire.
This is the most recent and convenient option, far more suitable than the Sun and Moon Empire.
Once Zhu Lu joins the Heavenly Soul Empire, she will undoubtedly bring with her a wealth of secrets from the Star Luo Empire and the Dai and Zhu families.
Huo Yuhao, unaware of the accompanying details, continued discussing with the others for a while.
Yu Tianlong said, "Xu Jiujiu appeared in the Xingluo National Academy team during the round of 16."
"This is her first appearance in a competition."
"She inherited the Star Crown Martial Soul of the Star Crown Sect and cultivated to the level of Soul King. Except for not knowing the fifth soul skill, she has used almost all the other soul skills."
"The first and second soul skills are mainly offensive, while the third soul skill looks like it's a buff-type soul skill."
"Xu Jiujiu's fourth soul skill is an area-of-effect defensive soul skill that isolates attributes, achieving a near-absolute defensive effect."
As Yu Tianlong spoke, he handed the list of the top eight to Huo Yuhao.
The teams are: Di'ao Team 1, Di'ao Team 2, Shrek Team, Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy Team, Star Luo National Academy Team, and three other teams that have never made it to the top eight.
The entire Douling Empire team was eliminated in the round of 16 this time.
Meanwhile, in the capital of the Sun and Moon Empire, at the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace.
Xu Tianran looked at the information sent by Kong Deming and Jing Hongchen, a thoughtful expression on his face.
"Pass down the order."
After a long pause, Xu Tianran said, "The number of level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells has increased to six: one for Ice Emperor, one for Titan Snow Demon King, and two each for Snow Emperor and Poison Undying."
"Additionally, seven level-eight fixed-position soul-guided artillery shells and ten level-seven fixed-position soul-guided artillery shells will be requisitioned."
"If Su Wu is the Snow Empress, then let's blow her and Poison Undying to death."
"Su Wu is not the Snow Emperor. This move offended the Far North, so she blew up the core area of the Far North in one fell swoop."
"Xingdou is too far away from us. Even if they feel fear, they will be the first to launch a beast tide and cause internal strife among the three Douluo tribes."
After the assassins left to carry out their orders, Xu Tianran fell into deep thought.
Humans are wary of soul tools, but soul beasts are not.
Neither the far north core nor the Star Dou Great Forest core has ever seen a powerful soul tool.
This is also why Xu Tianran believes that the level 9 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell could potentially kill the three Heavenly Kings of the Far North.
However, this explosion will inevitably frighten the Star Dou Great Forest.
In response to the possibility that Di Tian might be frightened and come to Mingdu to carry out a beheading, he quickly made a series of arrangements in the palace.
After making the arrangements, Xu Tianran looked in the direction of Xingluo City.
"After we finish bombing the far north, it will be time to move on to the plan targeting Tianhun."
