Silkwormy as Hell

When Huo Yuhao controlled the Snow Lotus and made even the slightest move, the ability of Flesh Devouring was pushed to its limit.

Do not assume the Snow Lotus was weak just because it had no intelligence of its own and was also a Healing System soul beast.

Did they even understand the value of a Ten Thousand Year Snow Lotus?

At this moment, Huo Yuhao once again felt the gap between a rutted country dirt road and an Eight-Lane Highway.

And both sensations came through the Snow Lotus.

Faint ice-blue mist and blood-red mist were drawn out of the Mutated Frost Centipede's corpse by the Snow Lotus Root, then absorbed into Huo Yuhao's body.

The ice-blue mist was the Mutated Frost Centipede's Bloodline Power.

The blood-red mist was the remaining Blood Qi Nutrients in the Mutated Frost Centipede's corpse.

This scene looked exactly like an Evil Soul Master cultivating.

The method of Flesh Devouring was indeed classified as an Evil Soul Master method on the Douluo Continent.

But there were no outsiders here now. Who could control Huo Yuhao?

Black cat or white cat, as long as it caught mice, it was a good cat!

"This speed... humans really can't compare to soul beasts," Huo Yuhao could not help sighing.

"Yeah, yeah, but in the end, Brother Hao is still the smart one, coming up with a method like this," Sky Dream Ice Silkworm flattered Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao instantly felt delighted and could not help laughing aloud. "Brother Sky Dream, if you say that, I'll get arrogant, hahaha..."

The residual Bloodline Power in the two-hundred-meter-long Mutated Frost Centipede corpse did not seem like much under the Snow Lotus's extraction.

That was an illusion caused by the extraction speed being too fast.

After a dozen or so minutes, all the Bloodline Power and Blood Qi Nutrients in the Mutated Frost Centipede corpse had been completely drained by the Snow Lotus.

Huo Yuhao also clearly saw the changes in the Mutated Frost Centipede corpse before and after.

The Mutated Frost Centipede corpse, preserved fresh by freezing, actually withered at a speed visible to the naked eye. Its originally incomparably hard carapace also became extremely fragile, covered in cracks.

Finally, after all the Bloodline Power and Blood Qi Nutrients had been drained dry.

The Mutated Frost Centipede's corpse reached its limit.

Rumble—

The enormous Mutated Frost Centipede corpse collapsed with a crash, turning into ice shards scattered across the ground and returning to nature.

"Cough, cough..." Huo Yuhao coughed as he climbed out of the ice shards.

The shattering of the Mutated Frost Centipede's corpse meant that the materials on the corpse had also been destroyed, which was a pity.

However, Huo Yuhao had obtained the most precious thing.

The Snow Lotus Root had already withdrawn into Huo Yuhao's body, but Huo Yuhao's chest did not have the slightest scar left behind, as though the Snow Lotus Root had never existed before.

Huo Yuhao found a clean place, sat cross-legged, and extended his Mental Detection deep into the position of his heart.

He saw the shrunken Snow Lotus quietly growing inside Huo Yuhao's heart. The Snow Lotus Root filled Huo Yuhao's heart like muscles and blood vessels, looking somewhat eerie, yet also carrying a bloody kind of beauty.

It had not been like this before. Originally, the Snow Lotus's roots had merely pierced into Huo Yuhao's heart, but now they completely wrapped around Huo Yuhao's heart.

This was because the Snow Lotus had just absorbed the Blood Qi Nutrients from the Mutated Frost Centipede corpse and grown.

The Snow Lotus truly did not eat meat, but it did absorb nutrients.

Huo Yuhao was not worried about this, because this was a feature of Spirit Herb Symbiosis. The current situation represented that the symbiotic state between the Snow Lotus and Huo Yuhao had advanced another step.

Next, Huo Yuhao discovered that at the center of the Snow Lotus, there was now an extra crystalline touch of ice-blue.

Huo Yuhao touched the Snow Lotus with his mind.

The Snow Lotus swayed slightly, and an ice-blue seed floated out from the Snow Lotus flower.

It was like a dandelion.

A Snow Lotus growing atop an Ice Mountain was still different from a lotus flower growing in a pond.

The Snow Lotus had no lotus seeds. Its seeds would be like dandelions, flying into the distance with the wind after they matured.

Compared to lotus flowers, Snow Lotuses were harder to grow and reproduce, so Snow Lotuses were also more precious and rare.

And this special seed that had floated out was shockingly a seed condensed from the Mutated Frost Centipede's Bloodline Power.

The Snow Lotus did not need the Mutated Frost Centipede's Bloodline Power and would not absorb it, so it could only condense it into a seed and then release it.

Huo Yuhao hurriedly mobilized the Demon Buddha Method to wrap around this seed, then began refining it.

This was far easier than refining Bloodline Power bit by bit from flesh and blood.

On top of that, the Snow Lotus, which shared the same origin as the seed, assisted from the side.

As for the process of refining the bloodline, Huo Yuhao could only describe it in two words—silky smooth!

There was not the slightest rejection.

Just like that, half a day passed.

The icy aura on Huo Yuhao's body advanced another step.

The refining of the Snow Lotus seed entered its final stage, and the Mutated Frost Centipede's Bloodline Power had more or less completely merged into Huo Yuhao's body.

And at this very moment.

Huo Yuhao's Second Martial Soul began to transform!

It was just like in Douluo Dalu 1, when the Shrek Seven Devils' martial souls transformed after consuming immortal-grade herbs.

Simply put, there was no particular display.

But Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had been helping Huo Yuhao keep an eye on it the whole time. The moment the Second Martial Soul began transforming, he notified Huo Yuhao.

"Brother Hao, the Second Martial Soul is starting to mutate!" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said in delight.

The Second Martial Soul Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had granted Huo Yuhao through Sacrifice was an Ice Martial Soul.

It had no fixed form, and no soul.

It could not be summoned, and could only barely use Ice Attribute power.

At this moment, however, the Ice Martial Soul was constantly transforming, gradually changing into the appearance of the Mutated Frost Centipede!

To be precise, it was more majestic and domineering than the Little Mutated Frost Centipede, and compared to the Large Mutated Frost Centipede corpse, it had one fewer pair of wings, with a total of twelve pairs of legs.

The Martial Soul Imprint fully took shape!

Huo Yuhao opened his left hand, and the Mutated Frost Centipede's Martial Soul Imprint existed within Huo Yuhao's left palm.

But he still could not summon the martial soul.

Because it was still missing one thing, and that was—a soul!

Without hesitation, Huo Yuhao shouted in a low voice, "Brother Sky Dream, now!"

After saying that, Huo Yuhao kicked Sky Dream Ice Silkworm with his mind, kicking Sky Dream Ice Silkworm into the Martial Soul Imprint.

"Ah!" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm cried out as he fell into the Martial Soul Imprint. "I'm not ready yet!"

Huo Yuhao pretended he had not heard.

When Sky Dream Ice Silkworm fell into the Martial Soul Imprint, Huo Yuhao sensed that he could finally summon his Second Martial Soul.

"Mutated Frost Centipede, possess me!" Huo Yuhao shouted aloud in excitement.

The aura of Ultimate Ice instantly spread out, enveloping the entire cave.

The Mutated Frost Centipede itself was not of the Ultimate Ice Attribute, but of dual ice and poison attributes. It was because the Second Martial Soul strengthened the Ice Attribute that its Ice Attribute was raised to the ultimate attribute.

The icy aura of Ultimate Ice spread.

The surrounding ice and snow fell silent for a moment, as though submitting.

Even Bei Bei, who was sleeping inside the Molted Skin, involuntarily shivered.

The Mutated Frost Centipede martial soul was summoned.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's voice then rang out in Huo Yuhao's mind.

"Hey-hey-hey! Here I come!"

As everyone knew, Beast Martial Soul possession would inevitably strengthen a soul master's physique.

However, Huo Yuhao did not feel his body being strengthened.

Then afterward.

Huo Yuhao and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm looked at each other. No, it should be said that he looked at the Mutated Frost Centipede, and both sides stared at one another.

"Huh?" ×2

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm successfully possessed the Mutated Frost Centipede, allowing the Mutated Frost Centipede martial soul to obtain a soul and be summoned normally.

But it was only summoned.

That was right. The Mutated Frost Centipede became an independent entity and failed to possess Huo Yuhao's body.

"Isn't this fucking Grandmaster's Detached Beast Martial Soul from Douluo Dalu 1?" Huo Yuhao immediately covered his face.

Good news: the martial soul mutation had succeeded.

Bad news: it had not mutated in the desired direction.

Huo Yuhao: I wanted a cool transformation!

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, however, did not understand any of that. He was curiously examining his current state.

"Brother Hao, Brother Hao, look! This is amazing. I'm your martial soul, but I can actually move on my own, and I even have a body again..."

Huo Yuhao looked at the Mutated Frost Centipede wriggling back and forth. The corner of his mouth twitched, and he said helplessly, "Brother Sky Dream, you're a Mutated Frost Centipede now. Can you stop squirming like a silkworm?"

Even someone who did not know the Mutated Frost Centipede could tell something was off.

It was clearly a centipede, yet it was silkwormy as hell.

Because the current Mutated Frost Centipede was not walking with its legs. It was crawling like a silkworm!

Ababababa... The Second Martial Soul has awakened successfully. The great Brother Hao is about to return to his loyal Shrek Academy~
