A Two-Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Soul
After hearing Huo Yuhao's introduction, the man in purple fell silent.
His deep purple eyes flickered with uncertain light, and his brows were slightly furrowed, clearly indicating that he was going through some intense weighing and struggle deep inside.
The Ferocious Beast behind him also noticed his unusual behavior, but since they always regarded this man in purple as their leader, they did not speak to disturb his thoughts.
After a while, the man in purple finally slowly raised his head and spoke.
"Judging from your martial spirit, the most suitable Immortal Herb for you is the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew."
"Ten thousand years ago, when your ancestor Spirit Ice Douluo, came here, he chose the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew."
"This Immortal Herb is extremely beneficial to the Spirit Eyes Martial Soul and can also assist in the cultivation of the Purple Demon Eye, bringing immeasurable benefits."
Huo Yuhao nodded to himself; that was indeed how it was recorded in the historical records.
However, after saying these words, the man in purple suddenly changed his tone.
"However, what you need to break through to now is Soul Saint. No matter what kind of Soul Ring you absorb, the Seventh Soul Skill Soul Skill you eventually awaken will inevitably be the Martial Soul Avatar."
"Therefore, when choosing Immortal Herb, you don't necessarily have to be bound by their compatibility with your martial spirit."
Upon hearing this, even Zang Xin couldn't help but glance at him, surprised that he would say such a thing.
Just then, the man in purple took a deep breath.
As if he had made up his mind, he looked directly into Huo Yuhao's eyes, his gaze no longer showing any of the hesitation or evasion from before, but instead filled with a solemn seriousness. "My true form is the Aromatic Silk Beauty."
As he spoke these words, the faint purple light surrounding him seemed to brighten slightly. "I have cultivated here for over 198,000 years, and am the most powerful immortal Immortal Herb in this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well."
"If you choose me as your Spirit Soul, then it must be at the level of two hundred thousand years."
The moment those words were spoken, the expressions of everyone around froze.
The people around them, along with the Immortal Herb and Ferocious Beast, were all taken aback by these words. They hadn't expected that after all this build-up, they would end up being recommended.
Zang Xin was slightly taken aback, then turned to look at the man in purple. "Brother Luo, what's this?"
Aromatic Silk Beauty gave a bitter smile, "My lifespan... is running out."
"The second Heavenly Tribulation will arrive soon, and to be honest, I don't have the confidence to get through it."
Aromatic Silk Beauty turned her gaze back to Huo Yuhao: "His talent is unprecedented. Becoming his Spirit Soul would allow me to experience the human world."
"If he is able to reach the God Realm in the future, then as his Spirit Soul, I will also gain eternal life."
Upon hearing this, the many Ferocious Beast fell silent. They were all aware of the situation with Aromatic Silk Beauty, and this was a choice made out of desperation, perhaps offering a glimmer of hope for survival.
So although their expressions varied and they still harbored resentment towards Spirit Ice Douluo, none of them ultimately spoke up to stop him.
Zang Xin turned his gaze from the Aromatic Silk Beauty to Huo Yuhao's profile, inwardly sighing, "This kid is really lucky."
However, Huo Yuhao did not nod immediately. His gaze was calm and he began to think seriously.
Before coming to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Leng Yaozhu had given him a detailed analysis.
According to Leng Yaozhu, the most suitable Immortal Herb for him is naturally the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew.
Besides, if it weren't for the concern of exposing the Second Martial Soul, the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass could also be taken along as the Spirit Soul of the Second Martial Soul.
But now the situation has changed. As Aromatic Silk Beauty said, no matter what kind of Spirit Soul the Seventh Soul Skill absorbs, the final Soul Skill will inevitably be the Martial Soul Avatar.
Since the Soul Skill themselves are fixed, the strength of the Martial Soul Avatar is no longer affected by the type of the Soul Skill, but by the age of the Soul Ring.
The older the Spirit Soul, the stronger the effect of granting it the Martial Soul Avatar.
A level spanning two hundred thousand years—how many people on the mainland can match that?
As for the fact that the Aromatic Silk Beauty does not possess strong combat capabilities, Huo Yuhao is not worried.
For other Soul Master, a single Spirit Soul often needs to carry multiple Soul Ring.
But he was different. Other Soul Master dared not accommodate too many Spirit Soul because their Divine Power could not withstand it.
His current Divine Power has already crossed the threshold of the Spirit Domain Realm, a level that even many Titled Douluo cannot reach.
Therefore, even if Aromatic Silk Beauty becomes his Spirit Soul and only provides the Seventh Soul Ring and one Soul Skill, it will not be a waste.
Having figured all this out, Huo Yuhao had nothing left to hesitate about.
He raised his head, his gaze meeting Aromatic Silk Beauty's deep purple eyes with composure.
He said decisively and earnestly, "Since you are willing, I would be more than happy to oblige."
While Tang Wulin and his two companions were still searching for compatible Immortal Herb around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Huo Yuhao had already made a decision.
Moreover, the herb chosen was not just any ordinary Immortal Herb, but the Aromatic Silk Beauty was nearly 200,000 years old and had the highest cultivation level in the entire Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Meanwhile, under the protection of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings 'Dragon Soul, Gu Yue and Na'er passed through the little-known hidden passage at the bottom of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well Lake and stepped into a special space completely independent of the world above.
This space is enormous, with a dome hundreds of meters high, and the entire space presents two completely contrasting colors.
On the left are layers upon layers of Ten-Thousand Year Profound Ice, with countless ice crystals growing jaggedly from the ground, walls, and cracks in the dome. Each ice shard is like the sharpest sword blade, radiating an extreme cold that penetrates to the bone.
On the other side, a lava waterfall cascaded down from above, the scorching lava casting crimson-gold shadows in the air before crashing into a small lake below, where thick, hot bubbles bubbled and gurgled.
Extreme cold and extreme heat, two completely opposite auras, intertwined and collided wildly in this space, even more intense than the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well above.
Gu Yue and Na'er's gaze had already passed over the jagged, Ten-Thousand Year Profound Ice and the gushing lava waterfall in front of them, and landed on the two dragon skeletons hidden beneath them.
At that moment, both of their expressions became incredibly heavy, a profound and soul-stirring emotion that needed no words to express.
After a long silence, Gu Yue made the first move.
She raised her head, her purple eyes reflecting the two wandering Dragon Soul. She slowly raised her right hand, her five fingers slightly spread, and gently beckoned to the air.
With such a simple movement, the two Dragon Soul let out two almost whimpering dragon roars, and then transformed into two streams of light, one blue and one red, swooping down towards Gu Yue's palm like swallows returning to their nests.
The Dragon Soul grew smaller and smaller until it fell into Gu Yue's palm, where it had become the size of a thumb.
Gu Yue lowered her head, her expression filled with sorrow, and a complex emotion, which only she could decipher, surged deep within her purple eyes.
Finally, she sighed softly, and then her right hand clenched into a fist.
The moment their palms closed, the two Dragon Soul offered no resistance, just like Soul Beast choosing to Sacrifice themselves.
A flash of icy blue and fiery red light disappeared between Gu Yue's fingers, then transformed into the purest energy, slowly flowing into her body through her meridians.
A moment later, Gu Yue slowly opened her slightly closed eyes.
The moment those purple eyes opened, two extremely thin arcs of gold and silver light flashed and disappeared deep within their pupils.
Na'er stood still and quietly glanced at Gu Yue.
She shares the same origin as Gu Yue and can sense the subtle changes that occurred within Gu Yue's body at that moment.
These two Dragon Soul have been worn down over tens of thousands of years, and their remaining power is indeed not much.
But they are ultimately the remnant souls of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings, containing the pure Dragon Clan bloodline of the Nine Great Dragon Kings. The return of this bloodline power is enough to subtly benefit Gu Yue's essence.
After a long silence, Na'er broke it first.
"Di Tian and his team are intensifying their search. If they can find Dragon Valley, our strength can be further enhanced."
Gu Yue nodded, her expression calm, though she still didn't seem very interested.
After a moment of silence, Gu Yue turned around, her purple eyes meeting Na'er's silver eyes.
"There's something I need your help with," she said, her voice low but clear.
