Golden Tortoise, Spiritual Eye's Second Ring (3,000 Words, Please Follow)

After dealing with Lu Xinjin, Huo Yuhao did not linger. He directly used Kamui to jump to the homes of the remaining Soul Saints.

Passion Sect had long since investigated the residences of these Soul Saints, and all of the information had been voluntarily leaked by their subordinates.

One of the Soul Saints was rather ungrateful. After hearing Huo Yuhao's words, he tried to attack on the spot.

Huo Yuhao did not indulge him. He directly sent him to see Buddha Tang with a blast of Amaterasu. Of course, whether Buddha would accept him was another matter; Huo Yuhao was only responsible for sending him there.

After dealing with one Soul Saint, he brought the man's remains to the second Soul Saint's home.

This seventy-second-rank Control System Soul Saint named Kong Yang immediately realized he was no match for Huo Yuhao upon seeing the remains.

He directly dropped to his knees and said:

"Since Kong has drifted through half his life, I have only regretted never meeting a wise lord!"

"If my lord does not disdain me, Kong is willing to acknowledge you as his Godfather!"

Huo Yuhao had no desire to become Dong Zhuo, and this fellow's Martial Soul was not a Fangtian Halberd either.

However, seeing that Kong Yang knew what was good for him, Huo Yuhao decided to make him the city lord.

Huo Yuhao informed him in advance that, from now on, every aspect of Xilu City had to give Passion Sect the green light. Nothing was allowed to obstruct its development.

Kong Yang nodded repeatedly. So long as he was not reduced to ashes, anything could be discussed.

Huo Yuhao could not possibly trust such a fence-sitter. He branded a Tsukuyomi-version Spiritual Imprint into his Sea of Consciousness. This application of Spiritual Power had been taught by Tian Meng.

It was somewhat like a transcription seal.

The moment he showed signs of rebellion, Tsukuyomi would automatically activate, tormenting him in the spiritual world for three days and three nights before erasing his personality.

Feeling the restraint within his Sea of Consciousness, Kong Yang trembled all over. His gaze toward Huo Yuhao was filled with awe and fear.

Seeing his obedient appearance, Huo Yuhao nodded in satisfaction. Since he had already found a qualified candidate, there was nothing left to say to the last Soul Saint.

The last Soul Saint was named Ma Fengjun, a seventy-fifth-rank Agility Attack System Soul Saint.

Huo Yuhao did not waste words on him. A full package of illusion techniques and Tsukuyomi made him drop to his knees.

He gave him the same Tsukuyomi imprint as Kong Yang and ordered him to assist Kong Yang from then on.

Clearly, Ma Fengjun was not much of a tough bone either. He knelt immediately.

He did not want to die. As a sixty-year-old Soul Saint, he still had plenty of time to strive for the rank of Soul Douluo. The highlight of his life had yet to arrive—how could he die here?

Besides, to him, serving one person was the same as serving another. Lu Xinjin had ordered him around before; now he was merely changing masters.

In a single night, this city located extremely close to Shrek City had completely fallen into Huo Yuhao's hands.

The upper ranks were all his people, while Passion Sect continued to infiltrate the lower ranks. In the future, he could even expand into the surrounding cities.

Shrek Academy stood high above everyone else and had never thought highly of these surrounding cities, so Huo Yuhao might as well take them all.

Huo Yuhao would not waste these key cities that could firmly choke the throat of the Star Dou Great Forest.

After finishing everything, Huo Yuhao directly teleported to Passione Headquarters, a building over ten meters tall that had once been a casino.

He summoned Passion Sect's cadres through their Spiritual Imprints.

Then he announced that their main goal going forward would be to establish schools in Xilu City, help children of appropriate age awaken their Martial Souls for free, and take in the wandering orphans from the surrounding areas.

He would also vigorously reform Xilu City's economy. Huo Yuhao would not allow prostitutes, casinos, or addictive drugs to exist in his city.

The world had been this rotten before he came. If it was still this rotten after he came, then would his arrival not have been for nothing?

After concluding the affairs of Xilu City, he also paid a visit to the Orphanage established by Passion Sect.

He saw that the girl named Sui had voluntarily joined Passion Sect and was helping the orphanage director care for the children.

Huo Yuhao was very pleased. He had Sui stand on the awakening formation and personally used Spiritual Power to fully activate her Martial Soul.

A Primordial Ferocious Beast appeared behind Sui: a sheep's head, Dragon Horns, tiger fangs, human claws, and an earthy yellow body covered in strange patterns.

It was clearly a Taotie Spirit Sheep, a Martial Soul of the same type as Xuan Zi's Godly Taotie Bull.

Huo Yuhao believed that this girl named Sui would definitely become a core member of Passion Sect in the future, supporting the sect's highest combat power.

Afterward, Huo Yuhao had every child in the orphanage aged six or older come before him, then awakened their Martial Souls one by one.

Only seven children awakened Soul Power, with the highest being rank five.

Huo Yuhao personally explained their future development paths to these children, including what kind of Soul Rings they should hunt.

As for the children without Soul Power, Huo Yuhao had the orphanage continue raising them. They would follow the craftsmen under Passion Sect and try to learn a trade, so that even if they did not join Passion Sect in the future, they would still have a means to survive.

"It's over, Brother Sky Dream. We should head to the Star Dou Great Forest."

At that moment, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was bickering with Electrolux. This was part of his daily routine, though Electrolux often argued him to the point where he nearly shed Little Pearls.

He was bad at it, yet loved doing it.

"Wonderful, Yuhao!"

"Once you obtain the second ring for your Spiritual Eye, I'll take you to the Extreme North to obtain your Second Martial Soul and the Ice Empress's Soul Ring!"

"That way, Yuhao, all three of your Soul Rings will be over a hundred thousand years old. There has never been anyone like you, and there absolutely never will be another!"

Huo Yuhao smiled and nodded. His current setup truly was invincible. Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Rings were no different from wholesale goods to him.

"Kamui!"

This time, Huo Yuhao did not need to travel on foot. He directly jumped through Kamui.

Kamui, this eye technique, was truly incredibly useful. It connected to a Kamui Dimension, a space attached to another dimension of the Douluo Continent.

Huo Yuhao used the Kamui Dimension as a transfer station, allowing him to jump to other locations across the Douluo Continent.

The destination had to be somewhere Huo Yuhao had been before or within the range covered by his Spiritual Power.

When Electrolux first saw the Kamui Dimension, he clicked his tongue in amazement. He said this space could be considered a type of Demi-plane.

Moreover, it was a Demi-plane that came with his Martial Soul. Huo Yuhao was the master of this Demi-plane.

In a verdant pond within the Outer Circle of the Star Dou Great Forest.

The Golden Tortoise was boredly blowing bubbles in the center of the pond.

"He's coming. He's not coming. He's coming. He's not coming..."

"Don't tell me he was really lured away by another turtle?"

"This sort of thing should at least happen five years after I die, right?!"

The Golden Tortoise failed to notice a Space Vortex appear by the pond.

Huo Yuhao's figure was slowly spat out by the space.

Hearing the Golden Tortoise's words, Huo Yuhao's face darkened.

This pathetic Soul Beast is about to become my Soul Ring. What rotten luck!

When Huo Yuhao fully emerged beside the pond, the Shadow Cat on his shoulder meowed at the Golden Tortoise.

"Meow!"

The Golden Tortoise immediately turned around. Its triangular pyramid-shaped head somehow displayed an expression of wild joy.

"Woo~"

"You finally came! This old turtle was getting anxious!"

Before Huo Yuhao could speak, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm in his Sea of Consciousness could no longer hold back.

"Wait?"

"Is this that Golden Tortoise?!"

"This fellow absorbed my life force before!!"

"I can sense my origin within its body!"

"Yuhao, cover it with your Spiritual Power. Let me talk to this bastard!"

Huo Yuhao helplessly spread his Spiritual Power over it, allowing Sky Dream Ice Silkworm to converse with the Golden Tortoise.

"Bastard! Do you still recognize me?"

The Golden Tortoise suddenly sensed an unusual Spiritual Power emanating from Huo Yuhao's body. It was initially confused, but quickly recognized it.

"Ah! It's you, that Ice Silkworm!"

"You actually got out! So the first Soul Ring was talking about you!"

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm continued angrily, "You absorbed my life force back then too!"

The Golden Tortoise felt somewhat guilty. It secretly submerged its head in the water and said in a muffled voice, "I only stole a little. I didn't cause you too much trouble."

"And I paid the price for it as well. Just look at my life force now and you'll understand."

Only then did Sky Dream Ice Silkworm discover that the Golden Tortoise's life force was nearly depleted.

"So that's why. No wonder you want to Sacrifice yourself!"

The Golden Tortoise did not want to continue explaining. Its body was already at its limit, and every additional second of life caused it unbearable pain.

"You should have the ability to preserve Spiritual Origin within the Sea of Consciousness. Otherwise, the big Ice Silkworm could not be speaking with me."

"Help me seal my Spiritual Origin inside him, and I will give him everything in my Sacrifice!"

"As for the rest, let this old turtle rest in the Sea of Consciousness for a while before I explain!"

After speaking, the Golden Tortoise erupted with the terrifying aura of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, its entire body covered in blood-red light.

Then the scarlet radiance enveloped Huo Yuhao's entire body, and his Spiritual Eye opened automatically.

The Shadow Cat swiftly leaped off Huo Yuhao's shoulder and kept watch nearby.

Though Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was unwilling in words, he still used his Spiritual Power to guide the Golden Tortoise's Spiritual Origin into Huo Yuhao's body.

He would not refuse something beneficial to Huo Yuhao.

The Sacrifice did not take long. A Blood-Red Soul Ring soon appeared around the Spiritual Eye, marked by two golden lines.

Clearly, the Golden Tortoise had successfully broken through to the level of a two-hundred-thousand-year Fierce Beast during the Sacrifice.

After the Golden Tortoise completed its Sacrifice, its body dispersed, leaving behind a huge chunk of emerald-green metal that radiated life force like an entire world.

There was also a dark golden skull floating in the air.

Electrolux sensed that life force within Huo Yuhao's body. His divine consciousness extended outward, and the entire Gray Sphere was utterly shocked!

"Such a large piece of Life Gold!"

"Unheard of, unseen!"

"This, this, this!"

"Sigh, Yuhao, you truly are blessed by the heavens!"

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm asked Electrolux in confusion, "What is Life Gold?"

Electrolux said in an aged voice, "Life Gold... it is a world, the essence of a world."

"If the life force from your million years were turned into Life Gold, it would probably amount to only a single drop."

"Such a huge piece of Life Gold—in my world, it would likely make every powerhouse risk their lives to fight for it!"

"Yuhao, after you absorb the Soul Bone, I'll help you make the greatest possible use of this Life Gold."

At the same time, the Golden Tortoise finally entered Huo Yuhao's Sea of Consciousness.

"Hahaha, this old turtle is finally free!!!"

"So your name is Huo Yuhao. Hurry and absorb the skull I gave you."

"This skull's Soul Skill is related to Destiny."

"I'll rest for a while first. These past years have exhausted me!"

Huo Yuhao did not hurry to absorb the Soul Bone. He first stored the Life Gold in his Storage Soul Tool.

Then he sensed the two Soul Skills bestowed by the Golden Tortoise.

"Spiritual Eye's second Soul Skill, Golden Armor: the body gathers armor like gold, while a Spiritual Star burns in the chest. While the armor is maintained, its defense is extremely powerful. With twenty ranks of Soul Power, it can withstand the full-force attack of a Soul Emperor."

"Spiritual Eye's second Soul Skill, Sun Wheel Spear: Golden Armor shatters, ignited by Spiritual Power, and condenses into a gigantic spear of light."

"Miniature sun wheels are embedded in the spear's body. The sun wheels are formed from elements ignited by Spiritual Power."

"Its power is immense, its Soul Power consumption is extremely high, and it is especially effective against darkness and Evil!"

Three thousand words. It should have been split into two chapters, but I saw all you readers saying the pacing was a little slow. I'll read everyone's suggestions, so I combined it into one chapter and posted it today. OzR
