Huo Yuhao had actually been researching Soul Core techniques over the past year or so as well.
Although his current Soul Power was not yet sufficient to form a true Soul Core within his body, using its principles to temporarily accelerate his cultivation was not a problem.
Huo Yuhao's spiritual power had now reached the very peak of the Soul Douluo rank and touched the threshold of a Title Douluo. Though only a thin veil still separated him from that realm, ordinary Soul Douluos were utterly helpless against him on the spiritual level.
As for his fifth soul ring, Shrek's higher-ups had gone to great lengths for it.
Because of the restrictions placed on Title Douluos by the Star Dou Great Forest, hunting high-age soul beasts carried far too much risk.
In the end, Song Yunzhi personally led a team overseas and found a spiritual-attribute sea soul beast with a cultivation of as much as ninety-nine thousand nine hundred years within a Deep Sea Demon Domain.
That age was practically a joke.
Huo Yuhao had nearly suspected it was the twisted sense of humor of some God King.
But this was already the most suitable soul beast Shrek could find for Huo Yuhao after exhausting all its resources.
After all, Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts were not cabbages. Even among the elders of the Sea God Pavilion, only a scant few possessed hundred-thousand-year soul rings.
Still, none of that was a problem.
At the critical moment of absorbing the soul ring, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm once again contributed his origin spiritual power, forcibly pushing this quasi-hundred-thousand-year soul ring past the threshold into a true hundred-thousand-year soul ring.
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm might have been utterly useless in battle, but in the field of spiritual power, he was still an unquestionable authority.
