Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass: Hold Your Hand
Although Huo Yuhao usually appears gentle and easy-going, he always has a faint smile on his face that makes people feel like they are bathed in a spring breeze.
But under Leng Yaozhu's influence, he was definitely not a "good guy" at heart.
Leng Yaozhu's way of teaching him was never to make him blindly tolerate things, but to make him understand that in this world where the strong are respected, true respect is always earned through strength, not through compromise and concession.
Therefore, Huo Yuhao didn't even ask a single question when faced with the so-called "test" mentioned by Youyou.
Huo Yuhao turned his head slightly and secretly transmitted his voice to Jin Li, "Stay away."
Jin Li didn't know what Huo Yuhao was going to do. She just glanced at Huo Yuhao and then retreated rapidly without hesitation, disappearing dozens of feet away in the blink of an eye.
Then, the aura that Huo Yuhao had been deliberately suppressing and restraining erupted like a volcano whose plug had been suddenly pulled.
The powerful Soul Power transformed into a tangible gale, raging in all directions and bending the rare immortal Immortal Herb around them almost to the ground, their petals and leaves trembling violently in the wind.
Youyou was the first to be affected. She involuntarily shook her large petals, clearly not expecting that this seemingly gentle and harmless human boy actually possessed such terrifying power.
Immediately afterwards, a dazzling silver light suddenly emanated from Huo Yuhao's body, and a magnificent suit of armor, entirely silver-white and adorned with dazzling purple patterns, instantly covered his entire body.
Each plate of the armor was streamlined and fit snugly against his body. Purple patterns flowed slowly across the surface of the silver armor as if they were Life God, emitting a dazzling halo that made one feel as if their mind was being drawn into that flowing purple galaxy with just a glance.
This is the Two-Word Battle Armor that Huo Yuhao personally crafted, named "Ling Tian".
If it weren't for the need to conceal his Second Martial Soul, the Ultimate Ice, he would have actually wanted to name this Battle Armor "Spirit Ice".
With the Battle Armor activating, Huo Yuhao's height instantly increased to about three meters.
A pair of metal wings, the same color as the Battle Armor, suddenly unfolded from his back, with a wingspan of several meters. The smooth and sharp wing blades gleamed with a chilling light under the dual light of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
With a flap of his wings, he soared into the sky and hovered steadily above the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
At the same time, his aura surged wildly at an astonishing rate.
While the Two-Word Battle Armor provides a considerable boost to ordinary Soul Saint, it can only allow them to barely approach the threshold of Titled Douluo.
However, Huo Yuhao had already condensed Yin-Yang Complementary Dual Soul Cores, and the Soul Power in his body was several times more refined than that of other Soul Master of the same level.
Therefore, with the amplification of his Battle Armor, the aura emanating from him was so powerful and terrifying that it even surpassed the level that many ordinary Titled Douluo could achieve.
Feeling the immense pressure emanating from Huo Yuhao, the large pink petals of Youyou's flower visibly trembled slightly.
She slightly closed the petals, and a barely suppressed fear crept into her clear female voice, her words quickening slightly. "What... what are you going to do?"
Not only Youyou, but also two enormous immortal Immortal Herb suddenly emerged from the clearly defined Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well Lake behind her.
A plant, entirely Lie Yan red, resembled a giant cabbage magnified dozens of times. Its layers of leaves rose from the lake, their surfaces adorned with flame-like patterns resembling lava. This was none other than the Infernal Delicate Apricot.
The other plant has a standard octagonal shape, with each leaf as if it were carved from millennia-old ice. It is crystal clear and exudes a chilling aura. It is the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass.
These two top-tier immortal Immortal Herb from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well were clearly startled by the undisguised and powerful aura emanating from Huo Yuhao.
They flanked Youyou on either side, their intertwined aura of ice and fire rising up to confront the immense pressure emanating from Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao hovered in mid-air, looking down at the few Immortal Herb below that seemed to be facing a formidable enemy.
His voice deliberately carried an undeniable chill. "I don't want to use force, but if I want to, you can't stop me."
In his eyes, this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well would henceforth Spirit Pagoda.
Since this is his territory, the Immortal Herb here are naturally his Immortal Herb too; it's just that these Immortal Herb haven't realized the situation yet.
Among these Immortal Herb, the Infernal Delicate Apricot is the most fiery, easily ignited.
She had just awakened from the bottom of the Extreme Heat Yang Spring lake and hadn't even had time to figure out what was happening when she heard Huo Yuhao's blunt words, "You can't stop me."
An unnamed rage immediately flared up from between her layers of crimson leaves, and she sneered, "How arrogant! If you want to cause trouble here, you'd better beat us up first!"
Before she could finish speaking, Infernal Delicate Apricot had already made her move.
The Extreme Heat Yang Spring Lake where she was rooted suddenly surged violently. Under her control, the crimson spring water shot into the sky like a roaring fire dragon, carrying a terrifyingly high temperature that could melt gold and iron. It drew a scorching arc in mid-air and shot towards Huo Yuhao, who was suspended in mid-air.
The temperature of that Yang Spring water is comparable to Ultimate Fire. Even a single drop would instantly burn through the skin of an ordinary Soul Master. If one were to be directly splashed by the entire stream of Yang Spring water, even Soul Saint would suffer greatly.
However, Huo Yuhao didn't even blink. Just as the crimson Yang Spring water was about to touch him within Sanchi, a platinum-gold light shield appeared around him without warning.
This is one of the innate abilities bestowed upon Huo Yuhao by the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, Million-year Soul Beast: the Life Reflection Shield.
The moment the Yang Spring water, comparable to the Ultimate Fire, collided with the platinum-gold light shield, it was as if it had struck an invisible and indestructible mirror, and was forcefully bounced back by an irresistible force.
Infernal Delicate Apricot herself was not harmed by the attack of Yang Spring water, but the rebounded Yang Spring water drenched her head and face. Although it did not cause any real damage, it made her look disheveled and rather ashen-faced.
She abruptly shook the water droplets off her leaves, then turned her head in surprise and anger to look at the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass that was still watching from the side. Her voice was tinged with embarrassment and anger. "Stop watching the show over there, this guy is not easy to deal with!"
The Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass didn't want to make a move, after all, it hadn't figured out what Huo Yuhao really wanted.
But in the current situation, the Infernal Delicate Apricot Yang Spring water of the Fiery Apricot was easily deflected back by someone else, Youyou was so frightened that her petals were trembling. If she didn't take action, these immortal Immortal Herb that had been rooted in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for tens of thousands of years would probably be at the mercy of others.
She sighed softly, and then, with a thought, the water in the Extreme Cold Ice Spring below suddenly surged.
The icy spring water, exuding a chilling aura, shot into the sky and instantly solidified the moment it left the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, transforming into a massive, thick icy hand that required several people to encircle.
The giant icy hand spread its five fingers, radiating icy energy with a temperature low enough to freeze one's soul, and fiercely grabbed at Huo Yuhao in mid-air.
Huo Yuhao had no time to waste here. One after another, Soul Ring flashed out from under his feet. Then, the seventh Soul Ring was lit up, and the blood-red Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring bloomed with a bewitching light in the dim valley.
A gigantic vertical pupil suddenly appeared behind Huo Yuhao. The pupil was tens of meters tall and its entire body was filled with dazzling golden light. A ring of rose-gold sun patterns was distributed around the pupil.
The comprehensive enhancement from the Two-Word Battle Armor, the immense Soul Power provided by the Yin-Yang Complementary Dual Soul Cores, plus this 200,000-year-old Martial Soul Avatar.
With all three combined, this can be considered Huo Yuhao's most powerful attack under his current normal state.
Huo Yuhao's Soul Skill was held back, but the terrifying Soul Power fluctuations and Divine Power pressure emanating from it swept down from mid-air, enveloping the entire Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well Valley in a suffocating sense of oppression.
Although the Immortal Herb below have gained cultivation equivalent to Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast thanks to the nourishment of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, their true age is only 10,000 years.
Moreover, these Plant-type Soul Beast are not naturally good at fighting. At this moment, feeling the terrifying power emanating from Huo Yuhao, almost simultaneously, the same thought arose in their minds—this person is not someone they can defeat by force.
These three Immortal Herb, which have been rooted in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for tens of thousands of years, have completely different temperaments.
The Infernal Delicate Apricot the most fiery and impulsive, the Fragrant Silk Luo Immortal is the most innocent and carefree, while the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass is the most composed and calm among the three Immortal Herb.
Realizing it was no match for the opponent, the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass made the most rational choice without hesitation.
Her thoughts suddenly shifted, and the icy giant hand that was originally grabbing Huo Yuhao abruptly changed direction in mid-air, sweeping across with a chilling aura, and actually slammed into the other stream of crimson spring water that Infernal Delicate Apricot had just drawn out from the Extreme Heat Yang Spring.
Two diametrically opposed forces, extreme heat and extreme cold, collided violently in mid-air. The intense conflict between ice and fire instantly triggered a massive release of energy, and large amounts of white mist rose up like mushroom clouds, instantly covering the entire lake surface.
The Infernal Delicate Apricot trembled violently in anger, making a rustling sound, and its angry shout was full of annoyance, "Bingbing, what are you doing?!"
However, the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass didn't even glance at her. Its icy eight-cornered leaves slightly rose as it faced Huo Yuhao in mid-air and shouted, "Hold your tongue!"
