Four Bones into Two

The dragon souls of the Ice and Fire Dragon King had completely stabilized, dwelling within the Dragon God's body inside Huo Yuhao alongside the Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King. Their auras intertwined, and without needing words, they formed an unspoken understanding. Huo Yuhao stood quietly at the center of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, sensing the surging power within him. His expression was calm, his gaze indifferent.

The Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King spoke simultaneously within his sea of consciousness, their tones steady.

"Yuhao, our left and right arm Soul Bones are ready. The fusion can begin."

"With us guiding the power, the fusion will proceed more smoothly, and your strength will rise faster."

Huo Yuhao nodded slightly, showing no excess emotion as he replied calmly.

"Mm. Begin."

As his words fell, the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King immediately moved. Two streams of power originating from the dragon souls quietly emerged, gently yet firmly enveloping the Soul Bones in Huo Yuhao's arms. On his left arm, icy-blue light slowly flowed as the Ice Dragon King's Left Arm Bone appeared. Its dragon bone was crystalline, its dragon patterns ancient, containing an extreme cold capable of freezing all things. On his right arm, crimson-gold light rose as the Fire Dragon King's Right Arm Bone unfolded into existence. It seemed forged from molten gold, its flame patterns restrained, yet it carried an overbearing aura that could burn everything to ash.

Guided by the dragon souls, the two Soul Bones trembled faintly. Ice and fire responded to each other without producing the slightest conflict. Huo Yuhao's body seemed naturally born as the perfect vessel, steadily bearing both extreme powers and making everything feel utterly seamless.

"Yuhao, just relax your mind. Leave the rest to us." The Ice Dragon King's voice sounded again, filled with careful concern.

The Fire Dragon King added, "We will stabilize every fluctuation of power and ensure that no accidents occur."

Following their instructions, Huo Yuhao relaxed every meridian and strand of soul power in his body, allowing the two dragon souls to guide the power of the dragon bones. He could clearly sense the two streams of power flowing through his arms in an orderly fashion, building the most stable bridge for the coming fusion. At that moment, Huo Yuhao's thoughts stirred. His divine consciousness entered the Soul Bone space directly and summoned two Soul Bones that had lain dormant for a long time.

They were the left and right arm Soul Bones condensed for him by the Star Anise Mysterious Ice Grass and the Blazing Fire Apricot.

One was lustrous white and gentle, brimming with ultimate ice and the vitality of vegetation; the other was fiery red, containing ultimate flames and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The moment the two Soul Bones appeared, they automatically moved toward the Ice and Fire Dragon King arm bones, as though drawn by an invisible force.

"Those are the two immortal herb Soul Bones," the Ice Dragon King said softly. "Their attributes are perfectly compatible with our dragon bones. They can be fused together."

A trace of approval flashed through the Fire Dragon King's eyes. "When four bones fuse into two, their power will far surpass the sum of individual Soul Bones."

Under the precise guidance of the two dragon souls, the four Soul Bones slowly drew closer. The Ice Dragon King's arm bone pressed against the Star Anise Mysterious Ice Grass Arm Bone, icy-blue and lustrous-white light intertwining and flowing. The Fire Dragon King's arm bone fused with the Blazing Apricot Delicate Fern Arm Bone, crimson-gold and fiery-red halos rippling outward in layers. There was no violent impact and no berserk fluctuation. Everything proceeded steadily as the patterns of the dragon bones and the spiritual markings of the immortal herbs entwined, permeated, reshaped, and continuously merged and ascended at their source.

But just as the fusion reached its critical stage, the entire Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well suddenly shook violently.

The tranquil lake instantly began spinning madly. Extreme cold on the left and extreme heat on the right formed an enormous vortex that centered on Huo Yuhao and frantically devoured everything around it. Countless immortal herbs and spiritual roots that had grown for ten thousand and a hundred thousand years, rare treasures, exotic artifacts, and spiritual essences of heaven and earth were all swept into the vortex. They transformed into the purest medicinal power and source essence, pouring into the four Soul Bones fusing in Huo Yuhao's arms like streams of light filling the sky.

The sudden change did not throw Huo Yuhao into panic. He remained calm, merely focusing his mind slightly as he sensed the explosive growth of power within him.

The Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King immediately increased their guidance, stabilizing the rhythm of the Soul Bone fusion.

"The source essence of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well has been stirred. The essence of every immortal herb and treasure is actively pouring into your Soul Bones," the Ice Dragon King said.

The Fire Dragon King followed, "The power of heaven and earth is helping you complete the fusion. Four bones becoming two—this is the moment."

Vast amounts of essence and medicinal power surged in wildly, and the fusion speed of the four Soul Bones instantly soared. The Ice Dragon King's arm bone and the Star Anise Mysterious Ice Grass Arm Bone completely merged into one, becoming a brand-new Ice Dragon God's Left Arm Bone. Icy-blue dragon scales intertwined with the immortal herb's spiritual markings, its power restrained yet terrifying beyond measure. The Fire Dragon King's arm bone and the Blazing Apricot Delicate Fern Arm Bone fully united, forming a Fire Dragon King's Right Arm Bone. Crimson-gold dragon patterns fused with immortal flame markings, its majesty immense as it pointed directly toward the peak.

The four Soul Bones had ultimately become two Divine Soul Bones.

The new Soul Bones perfectly matched Huo Yuhao's flesh, meridians, and divine soul, as if they had been born with him. The medicinal power of the immortal herbs and the essence of heaven and earth that the Soul Bones did not fully absorb surged through his meridians into his sea of soul power, crazily battering against the barriers of his original realm. Huo Yuhao's soul power had already been at rank sixty-seven, but under the infusion of such immense power, his realm was shattered as easily as paper.

Rank sixty-eight,

Rank sixty-nine,

Rank seventy,

Rank seventy-one,

Rank seventy-two,

In no more than an instant, the bottleneck shattered completely. An even denser and more majestic soul power erupted, firmly settling at rank seventy-two.

A rank seventy-two Soul Sage.

He had crossed five ranks directly from sixty-seven and stepped into the Soul Sage realm in one stride. Such speed was enough to shock the entire Soul Master world.

At the instant his soul power broke through, Huo Yuhao's Extreme Tyranny Domain also awakened and ascended. Within the domain, space slightly congealed as power suppression, spiritual suppression, and soul suppression stacked into threefold effects. The draconic pressure intertwined with the Dragon God's aura, tyrannical beyond compare and intimidating all living beings.

Huo Yuhao slowly opened his eyes, a gleam flashing through them. He gently raised both arms and sensed the unceasing power surging through his body. The two newborn Soul Bones were linked to his will, four dragon souls lay safely dormant within him, his rank seventy-two soul power was deep and vast as an abyss, and his evolved domain moved at his command.

The Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King spoke at the same time, their voices carrying genuine approval.

"Yuhao, the fusion is complete."

"Your power has reached an entirely new level."

Huo Yuhao raised his eyes slightly and looked into the distance, his tone calm and indifferent.

"I know."

Huo Yuhao looked beyond the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well into the distance. There was no arrogance in his eyes, only unfathomable resolve.

"I have now fused with the Ice and Fire Dragon King. Of the Nine Dragon Kings' power, I am still missing seven. The Dragon God is not yet complete. Sigh... I'll take it one step at a time. At least the Dragon God has stabilized."

Just as Huo Yuhao's thoughts settled, a soft and ancient voice slowly sounded from the depths of his divine consciousness.

The voice was not loud, yet it was exceptionally clear. It carried the hoarseness of one who had just awakened from an eternal slumber, along with an indifference and tranquility that seemed to see through all things in the world.

"Yuhao..."

An irrepressible excitement flashed through Huo Yuhao's eyes. His voice was slightly brighter than usual, yet still steady, as he softly said to Electrolux in his sea of consciousness:

"Elder Yi, you're awake!"

"Mm, Yuhao, I am awake. Begin carrying out your plan."

"All right."
