Welcome Back

"Of course, matters of the gods are none of your concern right now. What you need to do is use the special environment and rules here to hone yourself."

Muyue paused here, his brows furrowing slightly, "Sea Soul Beast?"

His Mecha Soul Spirit Control that can share information with him. The Soul Spirit just told him that the sonar radar has detected the traces of Sea Soul Beast.

That's quite strange. The Abyss of the Deep Sea targets all Life. If the Sea Soul Beast really wanted to find a place to hide from humans, it could go to the Blood Sea Trench, so why did it come here?

Muyue narrowed his eyes, instructing his Soul Spirit to keep a close eye on the Sea Soul Beast, while he led Huo Yuhao to an island not far away.

They'll be staying here for quite some time, so they'll set up camp first.

While Muyue was busy, Huo Yuhao took the initiative to communicate with Snow Empress in the Spiritual Sea, "Xue'er, do you know anything about this place?"

After carefully learning about the events, Snow Empress thoughtfully recalled, "I haven't seen it myself, but the energy fragments mined here are also found inside the Spirit Pagoda. I've seen them before; they contain only pure energy, without any attributes, and can only be used as energy crystals. They're not very useful for powerful Soul Masters."

"This is also why no powerful forces pay attention to this place. Although everyone knows that those energy fragments may be related to the Divine Realm, the divine power they may have contained has disappeared. For people like us, they are not even of any use."

Huo Yuhao nodded slightly, looking thoughtfully at the ocean.

Devil Island was born from Divine Power Fragment from the Goddess of Life and the God of Destruction. These fragments contain the power of Life and Power of Destruction. As long as those who come into contact with them can withstand that power, they can absorb it and make it their own, and it will be much easier for them to comprehend the corresponding Laws.

According to Snow Empress, the Divine Power Fragment mined here do not possess similar functions; their power has been completely exhausted. Is this because the Divine Power Fragment that fell here were too weak, or is there some other reason?

While Huo Yuhao was speculating, Muyue walked over with two plates of food. "Yuhao, eat these before you go to training."

One dish was Red Jade Shrimp, and the other was made from Illusion Moon Exquisite Fruit.

The former goes without saying, while the latter is a rare and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that can enhance Divine Power and alleviate mental anguish to some extent... Muyue has really gone to great lengths.

Seeing that Huo Yuhao had taken the medicine as instructed, Muyue led him towards the boundary between the Abyss of the Deep Sea and the ordinary sea area, asking as he went:

"Do you know why Innate Secret Technique allow for the Third Awakening of Body Martial Soul?"

"Innate Qi."

Huo Yuhao pondered for a moment before replying, "The Innate Secret Technique borrows the Power of Heaven and Earth to nurture one's own Innate Qi. The Body Martial Soul is a part of oneself, so it will naturally be nourished as well."

"That's right."

Muyue nodded and sighed, "The Golden Body Realm can undergo Third Awakening, so how could Innate Secret Technique not help with the Secondary Awakening? It's just that we are incompetent and haven't been able to completely integrate the Secondary Awakening into the Innate Secret Technique yet."

Huo Yuhao shook his head, "To cultivate a God Rank body, there is no body-refining method in the world stronger than that of a sect. How could it possibly be perfect?"

Muyue glanced at Huo Yuhao and smiled helplessly, "But pursuing perfection is human nature... Never mind, let's not talk about this. The reason I had you cultivate the Innate Secret Technique before was to nurture your Innate Qi, nourish your Martial Soul, and increase the success rate of your Secondary Awakening."

"If my deduction is correct, given the speed at which you've mastered the Innate Secret Technique, your success rate could probably increase by a quarter, making it much easier to complete the Secondary Awakening."

Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered slightly upon hearing this.

If we're talking about Ten Thousand Years Ago, his Innate Qi Innate Qi be considered his own, but now... it's a bit hard to say.

Upon reaching the boundary between the normal sea area and the Abyss of the Deep Sea, Muyue grabbed Huo Yuhao's arm and sealed his Soul Power.

"Let's start from here, the deepest part of the Abyss of the Deep Sea. Even I couldn't last long there. I'll gradually increase the difficulty based on your performance... Yuhao, hang in there."

The feeling of suffocation surged in the next instant, but Huo Yuhao remained calm, letting Muyue drag him towards the seabed.

As they continued to sink, the surrounding light grew dimmer and dimmer, and the pressure of the seawater became increasingly heavy, like an Formless hand squeezing tightly against Huo Yuhao's chest, rapidly depleting the oxygen in his body.

The two reached a depth of over a thousand meters in a very short time. There was no light around them, and the heavy water pressure stimulated Huo Yuhao's nerves. The darkness a thousand meters below swallowed all sound, even his own heartbeat was taken away, and only the throbbing of the blood vessels in his temples vibrated like a muffled drum in his skull.

An ordinary person would have died long ago under such immense water pressure and prolonged oxygen deprivation.

Even Soul Masters would feel fear because of this environment.

After all, here, Soul Power, Bloodline Power, and even Divine Power will be suppressed and consumed very quickly. In addition, there is no Power of Heaven and Earth to replenish them, which is difficult for people who are used to power to adapt to.

But the only emotion Muyue sensed from Huo Yuhao was calmness.

"Such terrifying willpower... Does this kid have no flaws?"

He clicked his tongue inwardly, and after the depth dropped by several hundred meters, Muyue released his grip.

At that moment, Muyue inexplicably felt a chill, which made him frown.

Why do I have this bad feeling?

That's really strange...

Despite being severely oxygen-deprived, Huo Yuhao's vision was somewhat blurred, but his mind remained clear. He shifted his attention to his Spiritual Sea, looked at the several Soul Spirit staring intently at Muyue, and coughed lightly.

"It's just a little pain. Didn't I suffer enough Ten Thousand Years Ago? The Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures Teacher Muyue gave me before can reduce my pain. He truly cares for me, there's no need for this."

The Snow Empress narrowed her eyes and withdrew her gaze. "I know, otherwise I would have already taken action using the Snow Empress Token."

Ice Empress and Tian Meng also withdrew their gazes. The former snorted softly, "This pain is nothing compared to the pain of absorbing me Ten Thousand Years Ago."

"..."

Huo Yuhao smiled helplessly, and was about to focus his energy on survival as he swam back to the surface when he suddenly stopped.

A strange feeling arose, like a faint, elusive spiritual connection, hard to grasp yet undeniably present.

This mental fluctuation was extremely vast, as if it were surging in from all directions of the Great Sea, yet it was itself vague and could only convey some of the most basic information to Huo Yuhao.

"Welcome back...?"

Huo Yuhao clearly felt that after the vast and boundless Great Sea touched his aura, it seemed like a child who had found its parents, showing him immense affection.

Huo Yuhao's expression gradually changed.

What happened?

I don't have the blood of the Sea God, so why is the ocean so close to me?
