Chapter 168, Section 9: The Ichthyosaur Beast
Chapter 168 Nine-Section Fish-Dragon Beast
The time it took for Huo Yuhao to awaken for the second time far exceeded Du Busi's expectations.
Forty-eight days have passed, and Huo Yuhao still has not completed the second awakening of his martial soul.
Logically speaking, no matter how strong the combination of eyes and brain is, it can't possibly surpass one's own martial soul, which is the entire body, right? At that time, I completed my second awakening after staying in the sea for about forty days.
Based on the previous experience of awakening Lang Ya's martial soul a second time, a spirit-type physical martial soul should be completed in about thirty days, not to mention that Huo Yuhao's cultivation difficulty has been increased several times.
If it were any other disciple, let alone having to catch a sea spirit beast to cook along the way, they would be lucky to even float to the surface on their own.
But when it came to Huo Yuhao, everything was done, but there was still no sign of awakening.
But the gradually increasing innate energy truly told Du Busi that Huo Yuhao still had untapped potential.
Du Busi gritted his teeth and gave Huo Yuhao a deep look. He was also worried that he might have gone too far and killed his disciple.
There's no other way now!
"Phew—kid, wait here."
Huo Yuhao blinked twice, watching Du Busi disappear into mid-air as he turned into a dark green streak of light.
If you make me wait, then I don't necessarily have to stay in the sea, do I?
Thinking this, Huo Yuhao slightly activated his Deep Blue Glazed Dragon Martial Soul, condensing a patch of solid ice around him before sitting down on it.
Soaking in the sea is too tiring, let's sit down and rest for a bit.
Before long, waves suddenly rose on the once calm sea, and a faint, menacing aura slowly spread out.
This is----
Huo Yuhao glanced over instinctively and could vaguely see the snake-like body swimming in the seawater, its blue scales gleaming with a cold, eerie light under the sunlight.
But whether it was Huo Yuhao's imagination or not, it seemed that the temperature of the surrounding seawater was rising when he saw this soul beast.
Thinking this, Huo Yuhao used his mental detection to scan the snake-like sea spirit beast.
Its entire body is covered with a layer of fine blue-green fish scales, its body is segmented, its length is more than ten zhang, its thickness is as thick as a water vat, it has no claws, but its head is shaped like a dragon.
Wow!
After seeing the full appearance of this soul beast, especially its nine-segmented body, Huo Yuhao was so frightened that he almost lost his balance and fell into the sea.
In order to awaken their martial soul a second time, the Body Sect has a very comprehensive understanding of sea spirit beasts. Moreover, Huo Yuhao's understanding of sea spirit beasts has improved a lot in the process of diving to catch seafood.
If I'm not mistaken, this sea spirit beast—
The Nine-Section Fish-Dragon Beast is a sea spirit beast of the ocean's overlord level! And judging from its length, it is at least 30,000 years old!
Among the sea spirit beasts, there are several particularly powerful beings, such as the Demon Soul Great White Shark, the Evil Demon Orca, and the Deep Sea Demon Whale.
Of course, there are also some extremely powerful beings that are no less powerful than the so-called three great ocean overlords, such as the nine-sectioned ichthyosaur beast in front of us.
If the Deep Sea Demon Whale became the overlord of the ocean because its lightning attribute was effective against most sea spirit beasts, then the Nine-Section Fish Dragon Beast, with its dual water and fire attributes, is simply absurd.
Where did the teacher find this kind of spirit beast?! Wasn't it supposed to be extinct?
"Remember, you are not allowed to use your second martial soul. Do everything you can to survive!"
Seemingly sensing Huo Yuhao's presence, the Nine-Section Fish-Dragon Beast raised its serpentine head high, let out a roar, and transformed into a streak of blue lightning, breaking through the seawater and charging towards Huo Yuhao's location.
Despite its speed, its movements can still be detected by mental detection.
My brain was racing. How could I fight? Especially at sea, on their home turf!
Thinking this, Huo Yuhao's eyes widened, and golden light shone from them like flames. He unleashed a mental attack with 60% of his power straight towards the Nine-Section Fish-Dragon Beast.
The Nine-Section Fish-Dragon Beast is indeed a dual-attribute creature of water and fire, but it shouldn't be that good at mental power.
Unfortunately, the effect was not very obvious. The Nine-Sectioned Ichthyosaur only paused slightly, and its body was not seriously damaged by the seawater.
Huo Yuhao rubbed his teeth as he watched. On the ocean's home turf, such a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast could utilize the ocean's power to a certain extent, so the mental impact on him was not significant.
After the Nine-Section Fish-Dragon Beast approached the floating ice where Huo Yuhao was, it lashed out at him with an extremely cold ice blade wrapped around its tail.
Huo Yuhao bit his tongue, reached out and summoned the Explainer, channeling all his blood and qi to hold the sword in front of him.
"when!!"
Just like hitting a baseball, Huo Yuhao was sent flying by the tail of the Nine-Section Fish-Dragon Beast.
After using his soul power to condense floating ice on the sea surface to stabilize himself, Huo Yuhao suddenly bled from his nose and swayed uncontrollably.
That's some serious strength!
Huo Yuhao fiercely spat out the blood in his mouth, then wiped the blood from his nose, and raised his sword with a ferocious expression, aiming it at the Nine-Section Fish-Dragon Beast.
Now I know your limit!
Even on the sea, Huo Yuhao has more than one way to win.
His second martial soul came from the essence and marrow of the Dragon God, and naturally carried the aura of the Dragon God. No matter how powerful this nine-sectioned fish-dragon beast was, it still dared not act recklessly in front of the Dragon God.
Alternatively, one could use simulation to create the aura of a 100,000-year-old soul beast, such as the ferocious beast aura of the Ice Emperor. Even if it couldn't be completely suppressed, it could still create an opportunity for oneself.
But given the current situation, Huo Yuhao cannot do that.
Sufficient pressure is required for one's martial spirit to awaken a second time!
Lightning-attribute soul power gathered on the sword. Du Busi said not to use the second martial soul in battle, but he didn't say that soul power was forbidden.
Huo Yuhao was simply controlling the changes in the attributes of his soul power, which was not considered a foul.
The Nine-Section Fish-Dragon Beast's enormous dragon eyes narrowed slightly, its mouth opened wide, and blue-green water and fire meteors erupted around it, forming a water and fire maze that blocked all escape routes and melted the floating ice beneath Huo Yuhao's feet.
Huo Yuhao gritted his teeth and dodged the water and fire meteors falling on him with the steps of "Treading Snow to Find Plum Blossoms," quickly closing the distance between himself and the Nine-Section Fish-Dragon Beast.
We must win quickly! A 30,000-year-old sea spirit beast, especially a top-tier one like the Nine-Section Fish-Dragon Beast, is practically no different from a human Soul Douluo on the high seas.
If it falls into the sea, then it's truly a lost cause.
After charging up, he aimed the Explainer at the Nine-Section Fish-Dragon Beast and thrust it forward. Accompanied by the hissing of lightning, a long, deep purple sword beam swiftly pierced through the short span of several dozen meters, heading straight for the Nine-Section Fish-Dragon Beast's gaping maw.
The Nine-Section Fish-Dragon Beast reacted quickly, its head darting to the side. The sword beam formed from lightning only pierced its left side of the mouth, failing to strike its throat.
