He temporarily lost control of his Sea of Spirit!
This was his own Sea of Spirit, a world he should have been in control of.
This made him extremely shocked and annoyed. What on earth dared to intrude into his spiritual world and cause trouble!
However, before he could act, a very blurry figure emerged from the center of the gray mist. An ancient voice, carrying an indescribable majesty, echoed in Su Luoheng's Sea of Spirit.
"Holding the sun and moon, plucking the stars, there is no one like me in this world."
"I didn't expect this old man to still have a sliver of remnant soul surviving. I wonder where this place is... The aura here is particularly special, no wonder it attracted this old man."
The old man in the gray robe muttered to himself.
When Su Luoheng heard the old man's self-introduction, his eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief!
How could this be? How could it be him!
Su Luoheng never expected to meet this Necromancy Holy Mage, Calamity of the Undead, Electrolux, under such circumstances!
Wasn't he supposed to be in the Star Dou Great Forest?
How could he be in the Jingyang Mountain Range within the Sun Moon Empire now? These two places were not a small distance apart!
Wait... let's not talk about the geographical issue first.
Now that Electrolux had entered his Sea of Spirit, wouldn't Huo Yuhao be--
Thinking of this, Su Luoheng's expression turned strange.
So... I've intercepted Huo Gua's Grandpa Cheat?
Just as he was lost in thought, under Electrolux's control, the gray mist that had dispersed in the Sea of Spirit was gathered together.
The pressure restricting his spiritual body also disappeared.
He could now control his Sea of Spirit again, except for the area where Electrolux was.
ps: Luoheng's biggest cheat has arrived!
Chapter 61: Cheating~
But before Su Luoheng could recover, his spiritual body was suddenly attacked: as soon as the pressure disappeared, the resentment of the Thousand-Year Red Gold Bear impatiently launched its attack!
This time, caught off guard, it did gain a slight advantage.
However, despite the minor hiccup, the situation was still within Su Luoheng's control.
Just as he was concentrating his mind, preparing to resolve it in one fell swoop.
"A remnant soul that hasn't even given birth to consciousness dares to be presumptuous in front of this old man!"
Electrolux in the center of the gray mist suddenly snorted coldly. The next moment, he raised his hand and pointed. A simple and unadorned gray airflow directly pierced through the spiritual body with a 'bang', crushing its Spirit Substance. The Thousand-Year Red Gold Bear's resentment completely dissipated in the Sea of Spirit, leaving only pure spiritual energy, floating in space.
"..."
The Sea of Spirit returned to peace.
Su Luoheng and the Legendary Mage God met each other's gaze.
After a moment of silence, Electrolux spoke first.
"Little one, rest assured, I have no ill intentions towards you."
Su Luoheng displayed the expected panic and confusion, trembling, "Who are you? Why did you suddenly appear... in my Sea of Spirit?"
"Who am I? I'm not sure either..."
"Little one, my soul power is very weak right now. I've also consumed some while eradicating the remnant soul for you. When I fall into slumber and awaken, I will answer your questions."
As soon as he finished speaking, the gray figure disappeared.
The mass of gray mist also contracted, transforming into a gray bead that hovered in a corner.
It didn't affect Su Luoheng's Sea of Spirit, and relatively speaking, he couldn't control it either.
Remnant soul?
Oh~ It was the Red Gold Bear...
Wait! The one who attacked just now was Electrolux, right?
Su Luoheng suddenly thought of something and looked sharply at the gray bead floating in the corner.
At this moment, he felt as if he were dreaming, extremely unreal.
Electrolux... he actually chose himself!
Huo Yuhao's ability to become the Son of Destiny in Dou Er relied on two most important cheats: the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm and Electrolux.
From the original work's depiction of Huo Yuhao's path to godhood, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm provided the most help, with its million-year spirit ring and second spirit bone laying a solid foundation for Huo Gua. Although Electrolux's necromancy also played a significant role, it was slightly inferior to the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's assistance.
However, if Su Luoheng had to choose one, he would undoubtedly lean towards Electrolux.
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's only cheats were its vast spiritual power and its second spirit bone.
But Electrolux, as the Necromancy Holy Mage, represented the pinnacle of cultivators in the Divine Seal World. Obtaining Elder Yi's companionship could grant him the complete inheritance of a Mage God, as well as one-on-one guidance from a Mage God, equivalent to having a god-level teacher. This would bring immense benefits to his future growth.
In the original work, Electrolux died far too early to ever fulfill his true potential, and the Undead Half-Plane was treated as nothing more than a portal by Huo Yuhao—a complete waste of a divine treasure.
When he first confirmed the timeline he had landed in, it wasn't as if he hadn't thought about Electrolux and Tian Meng.
However, the way Huo Yuhao encountered them was far too coincidental; even knowing the specific method, Su Luoheng had no way to replicate it, and in the end, he had no choice but to give up on that tempting cheat.
To his surprise, after he had given up, he actually gained the favor of Electrolux, the very person he held in the highest regard!
This unexpected stroke of luck left him struggling to believe it even now.
He had never intended to steal Huo Gua's opportunities, but who would have guessed that the "old grandfather" would come knocking on his door himself?
Since this opportunity had been delivered to his doorstep, it would be a waste not to take it.
Elder Yi was his now!
At this very moment, a bold idea suddenly sprouted in Su Luoheng's mind: perhaps he could set a small goal for himself, like becoming a god?
"..."
"Did I... forget something?"
Su Luoheng muttered under his breath, looking at the spiritual energy still floating before him. He finally remembered that he hadn't finished absorbing his second soul ring.
Calming his excitement and joy, he stabilized his state of mind and began to absorb the remaining soul ring energy.
Fortunately, the Red Gold Bear's spiritual energy would not dissipate; otherwise, he would have had to start refining the soul ring all over again. Just the thought of enduring that suffering once more made Su Luoheng shiver.
His primary goal was to absorb the soul ring.
That would truly be a case of joy turning into sorrow.
Meanwhile, in the outside world.
When Ran Yuming saw Su Luoheng's body suddenly sway, his own nerves tightened, and he prepared to inject soul power into the soul ring suppressor held in his hand.
Fortunately, Su Luoheng held on.
"..."
Time ticked away, second by second.
In the blink of an eye, another hour passed—the typical amount of time a normal soul master took to absorb a second soul ring.
Just then, Su Luoheng's eyelashes flickered slightly.
Half a minute later, he finally opened his eyes, a flash of pale purple light vanishing within his deep black pupils. At the same time, rings of light rippled across his Martial Soul Projection, all converging to form a pale purple soul ring. It settled over his earthy-yellow first soul ring; one yellow and one purple, they radiated a dazzling brilliance beneath the Martial Soul Projection.
"Hoo~~"
"Finally... I've broken through..."
Su Luoheng exhaled a breath of stale air and stood up to stretch his body. With the two soul rings shimmering in tandem, his long-taut nerves finally began to relax.
And so.
After nearly three hours, the second soul ring was perfectly completed.
He had succeeded in obtaining a thousand-year-level second soul ring!
"Teacher, I did it."
Turning back to look at his teacher, Su Luoheng flashed a brilliant smile.
Seeing this, Ran Yuming let out a long sigh of relief. His heart finally settled, and he hurried to Su Luoheng's side. Before, he had been worried and tried to stop him out of fear that he couldn't withstand the impact of a thousand-year soul ring, but now that the absorption was a success, he naturally began to look forward to the Soul Skill this ring would provide!
Setting aside the rest of the Douluo Continent.
In the history of the Sun Moon Empire, there had never been a soul master whose second soul ring was at the thousand-year level!
"Hmm, what is your soul power level?"
"A thousand-year soul ring is truly extraordinary; it increased my soul power by three full levels!"
"Level four... twenty-three, not bad!"
Ran Yuming nodded slightly and immediately asked, "Luoheng, what is your second soul skill?"
"Let me check."
Having just finished absorbing the ring, he hadn't had a chance to examine the skill yet. But regardless, it was a skill provided by a thousand-year soul ring—it shouldn't be too bad, right?
Su Luoheng thought to himself as he began to inspect it.
However, the very next second—
The brilliant smile on Su Luoheng's face froze, and his expression gradually turned bizarre.
This is my second soul skill?
Is this, for heaven's sake, really my second soul skill?
Can someone tell me what this skill has to do with a Red Gold Bear?!
Chapter 62: It's pitch black, like a person?
Facing his second Soul Skill, Su Luoheng froze for a moment.
Uh...
How should he describe it?
His second Soul Skill really... truly perfectly inherited the... fine tradition of his first Soul Skill!
To say it was identical to the type provided by the soul beast he had chosen would be an understatement; it was simply... completely unrelated! Yes, he couldn't find even the slightest connection!
"..."
Seeing the shift in Su Luoheng's expression, Ran Yuming had already anticipated the outcome.
It seemed this second Soul Skill was not quite satisfactory.
Ran Yuming sighed softly and took the initiative to change the subject, asking, "Luoheng, has your first Soul Skill improved?"
Su Luoheng snapped back to reality and nodded. "Yes, it has improved. My Analysis detection range has expanded by one level. I can now handle ordinary soul tools up to level three, and sword-type soul tools up to level four without any issues. I'll need to conduct further tests to determine the exact limit of the first Soul Skill."
"Excellent, just as we expected!"
Hearing this, a look of excitement immediately appeared on Ran Yuming's face, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud. The first Soul Skill was Su Luoheng's greatest talent; as long as it improved, that was the best news. As for the newly acquired second Soul Skill, whether it was good or bad no longer mattered.
"As for my second Soul Skill..."
Just as Su Luoheng was thinking about how to phrase his explanation for the second Soul Skill, he was interrupted by Ran Yuming.
"It's alright, Luoheng."
Ran Yuming stepped forward and patted Su Luoheng on the shoulder, offering comfort. "Even if the result of the second Soul Skill isn't ideal, it won't have much of an impact as long as the first Soul Skill has evolved. Besides, the second soul ring is a thousand-year ring, after all; no matter how bad it is, it can't be that terrible."
Hearing this, Su Luoheng was slightly stunned at first.
Then, he suddenly realized: his teacher must have assumed that his second Soul Skill was disappointing.
