The Primordial Beginning Mirror Shows Its Might

Huo Yuhao froze for a moment when he saw the red figure charging toward him.

Taking the location into account, along with the color of her Soul Power,

he suddenly recalled the scene from the original story where he had been attacked by an out-of-control Ma Xiaotao. The corner of his mouth twitched.

This can't be Ma Xiaotao, can it? Am I really that unlucky?

Huo Yuhao examined her more carefully.

He discovered that not only were the woman's clothes red, but her hair was blood-red as well.

She had a slender figure, yet her entire body radiated a fierce and baleful aura, like a crazed beast.

Black mist rose from the flame-like Soul Power surging around her, and that mist carried an intense evil aura.

"It really is Ma Xiaotao!"

Huo Yuhao was certain now. That figure was definitely Ma Xiaotao.

Although this was his first time meeting her, Huo Yuhao had immediately deduced Ma Xiaotao's identity from those characteristics.

Without another word, he turned and ran. Ma Xiaotao was completely berserk right now. If she caught him, he would be lucky to escape with his life.

But Ma Xiaotao was simply too fast.

Even though Huo Yuhao had already used Soaring Dragon Movement, he was still far slower than Ma Xiaotao.

In the blink of an eye, Ma Xiaotao had crossed over a hundred meters, and a terrifying wave of heat swept fiercely toward Huo Yuhao.

Berserk Ma Xiaotao finally reached Huo Yuhao. With a sweep of her jade-like hand, a torrential surge of evil fire rushed toward him.

The evil fire was terrifyingly powerful. In a single instant, it evaporated more than half the water on the surface of Sea God Lake.

"Brother Sky Dream? Save me!"

Knowing he was no match for her, Huo Yuhao hurriedly called for help from Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.

But Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was still asleep. Unless Huo Yuhao was truly in danger and struck by Ma Xiaotao's evil fire,

it would be difficult for Huo Yuhao to wake him from his slumber.

After calling several times without receiving any response from Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, Huo Yuhao's heart sank.

Just as he thought he was about to be struck by Ma Xiaotao's evil fire,

a dazzling light suddenly emerged from Huo Yuhao's body.

The moment the light appeared, all the evil fire pouring toward Huo Yuhao was absorbed into his body.

Yet after absorbing so much evil fire,

Huo Yuhao did not feel the slightest discomfort.

Instead, he discovered that the Primordial Beginning Power within him was gradually recovering.

"This is..."

"The Primordial Beginning Mirror?"

When Huo Yuhao focused inward, he indeed discovered that the Primordial Beginning Realm in his Sea of Spirit had begun showing its might.

The evil fire filling the sky was completely absorbed into the mirror's surface by the Primordial Beginning Realm. In a mere instant, it drained the entire sea of flames dry.

More than half of the evil fire around Ma Xiaotao's body dissipated.

But perhaps because she sensed her Soul Power rapidly draining away, her body instinctively struggled.

Then, a clear phoenix cry suddenly rang out.

Behind her, a massive Fire Phoenix appeared.

Two yellow, two purple, and two black Soul Rings emerged alongside it—Six Rings in total.

An even more terrifying aura surged head-on toward Huo Yuhao.

Sizzle, sizzle.

But the Primordial Beginning Realm did not care about any of that.

No matter how powerful the Soul Power Ma Xiaotao unleashed, it accepted every last bit of it.

The Primordial Beginning Realm frantically absorbed the Soul Power from Ma Xiaotao's body. Within only a few breaths, it completely drained her Soul Power dry.

Ma Xiaotao immediately lost all her strength and fell from the air.

On Huo Yuhao's side, after the Primordial Beginning Realm inside him made such a huge commotion, he suddenly felt weak all over. A wave of drowsiness struck him, and he passed out.

The shore of Sea God Lake, where a shocking scene had unfolded just moments ago, suddenly fell silent.

Huo Yuhao and Ma Xiaotao lay unconscious on the shore.

At that moment, more than a dozen figures arrived at astonishing speed from the depths of Sea God Lake. In the blink of an eye, they had reached the shore.

"This is bad. Xiaotao injured an Outer Court student. Check whether he's all right."

At the head of the group was a white-haired old man. He took a step through the air, and his entire body vanished.

When he reappeared, he was already beside Huo Yuhao.

After examining him carefully, he sighed in relief.

"Fortunately, he merely fainted and was not seriously injured. Teacher Li, treat him."

Another White-Robed Man nodded at the old man.

If Huo Yuhao had still been awake, he would definitely have recognized this man. He was the very teacher Zhou Yi had summoned earlier to help treat them.

With a flick of his finger, a ray of green light entered Huo Yuhao's body.

With the aid of that green light, Huo Yuhao's minor external injuries healed, and his condition improved considerably.

The white-haired old man directly took Ma Xiaotao away. Before leaving, he said to Teacher Li,

"Fortunately, no great disaster occurred. It seems Xiaotao still retained a trace of awareness.

Teacher Li, send this student back and tell him to forget what he saw earlier.

Use both kindness and intimidation. Frighten him first, then offer him substantial compensation. We'll take Xiaotao back first."

After speaking, the white-haired old man flew toward the depths of Sea God Lake with the others.

Huo Yuhao woke up at this moment as well.

Seeing the White-Robed Man before him, Huo Yuhao recalled the plot and quickly understood what had happened.

He politely addressed the man. "Teacher Li, did you save me?"

The White-Robed Man smiled lightly. "Yes, you're all right now."

"But I hope you can forget what you saw just now. Otherwise, the academy will impose severe punishment on you."

"As compensation, take this. I believe you'll like it."

As he spoke, he tossed Huo Yuhao a green bottle.

Huo Yuhao caught the bottle and found that the White-Robed Man had already turned to leave. Before departing, he reminded Huo Yuhao once more.

"Remember what I said."

"I understand," Huo Yuhao replied.

He watched the man leave. Only after the man's figure had completely disappeared did Huo Yuhao open the bottle and take a look.

Seeing the green pill inside, Huo Yuhao wore an expression of knowing amusement. "A Soul Ascension Pill. Not bad."

Huo Yuhao put the pill away and headed toward the dormitories.

However, as he hurried toward the dormitories, he also divided his attention to inspect the Primordial Beginning Mirror in his Sea of Spirit.

The Primordial Beginning Mirror had truly given him an enormous surprise this time.

Before this, he had always thought that the Primordial Beginning Mirror could only be used for cultivation.

But now, it seemed this thing could be used for more than cultivation.

It could even be used for defense.

He was merely a One Ring Soul Master, yet he could use this thing to withstand the attacks of Ma Xiaotao, a Six Rings Soul Emperor, and completely drain her Soul Power.

If Huo Yuhao truly became a god in the future,

could he use this thing to drain Tang San's Divine Power dry?
