Throne of Seal Space.

On an island in the ocean, a golden dragon over thirty meters long was driven back and looked at Huo Yuhao with some surprise.

"I never expected that you could fight me to a draw despite such a large difference in cultivation level—it truly surprises me."

As one of the three artifact spirits of the Throne of Seal, the Holy Dragon is in charge of this assessment, and its greatest strength lies in combat.

Therefore, the test that the Lord of Eternity set for him was to fight and defeat it.

Moreover, unlike the Eternal Angel from last time, it does not suppress its power.

In the eyes of the Holy Dragon, this test seemed to be a bit too difficult for Huo Yuhao. After all, Huo Yuhao's cultivation level hadn't even reached the seventh rank, and even with the amplification of that strange armor, he wouldn't be a match for its ninth-rank, fifth-level opponent.

But now it seems that something is wrong.

The Eternal Angel's expression wasn't good after the last assessment. When I asked her, all I heard was that this year's assessor was special. I wondered what kind of special treatment they had, but it turned out to be something like this—such skills and strength, Re-Cultivation cultivator?

The Holy Dragon thought to itself, becoming completely serious.

"Likewise, you also surprise me."

Huo Yuhao looked at the Holy Dragon, and his heart was also somewhat stirred.

It wasn't because of the strength of the Holy Dragon before him. Although its strength, which was close to that of a level 98 Super Douluo, and its abilities, which were different from those in the Douluo Continent, made it difficult to deal with, it wasn't enough to make him afraid.

What he cared about was its appearance.

The Holy Dragon has no wings, five claws on its belly, and two horns on its head, and is thirty meters long. When it flies in the air, a myriad of Seven Colors lights surge and ripple across the sky.

That's right, this is an Eastern dragon, not a Western dragon!

This surprised Huo Yuhao.

The Holy Dragon is not described much in the story of the Throne of Seal, and he really didn't remember that the other party was actually an Eastern dragon.

Although the world of Qin Emperor also has the race of Holy Dragon, Huo Yuhao didn't watch it in his previous life because the way the final boss of Qin Emperor died was too "heaven-defying," and he didn't know if the two were the same race.

In the Western fantasy world of Douluo, Huo Yuhao found it somewhat amusing to see such a "Dragon Clan," especially since the other party was even the mount of the Creation God.

From the perspective of the Holy Dragon, are the Dragon Clan in Douluo truly Dragon Clan?

If they don't agree, then the Douluo Dragon Clan would be effectively stripped of their dragon status by the Creation God.

The Holy Dragon was unaware of Huo Yuhao's thoughts and showed no interest in them.

When it became completely serious, it slightly opened its mouth, and a condensed, almost tangible, Seven Colors light burst forth. Wherever the light passed, fine cracks appeared in space, and the ocean surrounding the island instantly evaporated, creating a huge depression that revealed the crystal base beneath.

As Holy Dragon, it can use the Seven Elements —earth, water, fire, wind, ice, lightning, and light—and fuse these Seven Elements into pure sacred primordial power. The Seven Colors light it exhaled at this moment was the Destruction energy resulting from the Element Fusion, enough to annihilate the defenses of most ninth-tier powerhouses.

Huo Yuhao's eyes narrowed, and as his Second Soul Ring flashed, the dazzling starlight transformed into an absolute barrier, blocking all the Seven Colors light.

"The Eternal Angel's Blessing is great for defense, but you can't be a coward if you want to defeat me!"

The Holy Dragon roared, and a massive Seven Colors of light spread out.

Expanding the domain!

"As you wish."

Gray mist also spread around Huo Yuhao, and three undead Three-Word Battle Armor Master appeared and pounced on the Holy Dragon.

Underworld King Domain, unfold!

Is this... the power of a necromancer?

The Holy Dragon's eyes flickered slightly, and it coldly snorted, "Not bad, but the undead will only perish when faced with the power of light within my domain—"

As the undead passed through its territory without showing any sign of disappearing, the Holy Dragon's voice abruptly stopped, and an expression of disbelief appeared in its golden dragon eyes.

The light energy within its domain should have an absolute restraining and purifying effect on Undead Creature; ordinary undead would melt away like ice and snow the moment they stepped in.

However, these three undead were completely unharmed!

Could this be...?

The Holy Dragon that had once followed Long Haochen carefully examined the power within the undead, and its pupils suddenly contracted when it sensed light within them.

"You are also a successor of Electrolux?"

Of all the necromancers it knew, only this one could push Light-Dark to their Ultimate and connect them together.

"It is indeed my master," Huo Yuhao replied with a smile, but his speed did not decrease in the slightest; on the contrary, it became even more ruthless.

Electrolux, are you really that awesome? You're connected to two generations of heirs to the Throne of Seal!

The Holy Dragon's eyelids twitched, and he cursed inwardly, realizing he had no choice but to face four formidable enemies simultaneously.

The three Battle Armor Master fought in an extremely bizarre manner.

They did not rely on brute force to overpower, but rather seemed to possess independent intelligence, cooperating seamlessly and attacking from cunning and vicious angles. What troubled the Holy Dragon even more was that their attacks always carried a strange corrosive power. Although they could not immediately break through its defenses, they eroded it like a bone-deep infection.

Huo Yuhao himself was the most dangerous assassin. His movements were unpredictable, sometimes blending into the gray mist of the Underworld King Domain, and sometimes striking like golden lightning, causing the most injuries.

If its domain hadn't genuinely suppressed Huo Yuhao and the three undead, they probably would have found a weakness.

We can't wait any longer.

With this thought, the Holy Dragon dodged and chanted, and the sky seemed to boil, with countless six-colored halos transforming into patches of light that drifted down from the air.

Dragon Language Magic, one of its most powerful techniques!

Soon, eight illusory images of giant dragons, each over a thousand meters long, appeared, each dragon preparing to unleash a powerful breath.

Just as the Holy Dragon was about to attack Huo Yuhao and the three undead, it suddenly realized that Huo Yuhao had disappeared from its sight.

"Your Excellency Holy Dragon, you seem to be lacking in Chang Kong manipulation."

The Holy Dragon widened its eyes and suddenly looked up at the sky.

Then Huo Yuhao looked down at it from above.

The two locked eyes, Huo Yuhao's eyes suddenly burst forth with an unprecedentedly dazzling golden light!

Fifth Soul Skill - Thorn Halo!

Then, a dark red halo of thorns appeared on the outer ring, and the Holy Dragon immediately felt as if thousands of needles were piercing its Spiritual Sea Spiritual Sea at the same time, pulling it out of its body.

"Roar-!!"

The Holy Dragon let out a painful roar, and the Dragon Language Magic it was brewing was instantly interrupted. The eight thousand-meter-long dragon shadows also became flickering due to the loss of control.

Upon seeing this, Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered slightly, followed by a terrifying chill.

The temperature of the world began to plummet from his center! The surging seawater below silently froze, turning into a pure white ice field, and the embers of energy drifting in the air solidified into ice crystals.

The Ice Seal spread across the Holy Dragon's body, from its head to its neck, then to its chest, abdomen, claws, and tail—

In the blink of an eye, a majestic and sacred golden dragon transformed into a flawless and lifelike giant ice sculpture, silently floating in the air.

"Now."

Huo Yuhao felt his Soul Power being depleted, and looking at the vibrant eyes of the Holy Dragon in the ice, he knew he couldn't hold it for long, but he only needed a moment.

A flame of ice-blue and a flame of crimson gold appeared in each of his hands, and the two were about to merge when they touched.

But at the last moment, Huo Yuhao suddenly replaced the icy blue flames with Seven Colors Seven-Colored Lotus.

This is the dragon of the Creation God; it deserves the utmost respect and reverence!

"To express my respect for you, let me conclude this battle with this move I just executed."

The Holy Dragon sensed a great terror brewing overhead and was filled with dread.

There are two kinds of divine fire, one of which has an extremely high status!

Ignoring its splitting headache, it hastily broke free of the Ice Seal around its mouth and roared, "Stop fighting! You've passed the test! Now, put away your supernatural powers!"

Huo Yuhao paused, clicked his tongue hesitantly, and then extinguished the flames in his hands.

The Holy Dragon glanced at Huo Yuhao's hands with lingering fear, and upon confirming that the thing wouldn't hit it, it breathed a sigh of relief.

If that landed on it, it would definitely die!

Let alone the two divine flames, it couldn't even withstand that Seven Colors flame.

In the Spiritual Sea, Tian Meng gasped, "Yuhao, you're so naughty!"

If it were Crimson Gold Profound Flame and Ice-Devouring Extreme Flame, that would be fine, because they are powers that Huo Yuhao can control and could barely fuse with. However, the Seven-Colored Lotus is of too high a rank, and its power is incomparable to the other two. Huo Yuhao is not capable of doing that.

After the Seven-Colored Lotus and the Crimson Gold Profound Flame were forcibly fused, only the Seven-Colored Lotus truly possessed destructive power.

While calming his breathing and recovering his Soul Power, Huo Yuhao said in his Spiritual Sea, "This is just an assessment, not a life-or-death battle. My cultivation is too low. If I fight to that level, the Holy Dragon will need a step up. What could be more likely to make it back down than having two kinds of divine fire right in front of it?"

"Moreover, that's the dragon of the Creation God; it deserves our utmost respect."

The Lord of Eternity of the Peeping Screen: I think it wouldn't like that kind of respect.

After the Holy Dragon and Huo Yuhao ceased their battle, neither spoke again, focusing on their recovery. Only when Huo Yuhao had fully recovered did the dragon speak, "In the Eternal Domain, the Eternal Angel are responsible for guarding the sky, representing the Power of Stars. I am responsible for guarding the Great Sea and all the magical beasts in the Eternal Domain, representing the Power of Life."

"Now that you have defeated me, you may obtain the Power of Life."

The Holy Dragon paused for a moment before laughing, "It is also a gift from the beings of the Eternal Domain!"

As the words fell, the Holy Dragon raised its head and roared to the sky, its sound waves containing an ancient and solemn rhythm that spread far and wide within the Throne of Seal Space.

In an instant, the entire Eternal Domain seemed to come alive.

Beneath the Ice Seal sea surface, strange buzzing sounds emanated; the ice melted, and the seawater returned to its clear, azure hue. Countless creatures of various shapes...

Sea monsters exuding powerful or strange auras emerged from the deep sea, from coral reefs, and from various waters, gazing devoutly at the Holy Dragon and Huo Yuhao in the sky.

A rustling sound came from the island's dense forest. Various terrestrial magical beasts, birds and beasts, and even some elemental spirits emitting a hazy halo, all quietly appeared and focused their gaze on this place.

Countless tiny points of light, like fireflies, emerged from the Great Sea, from the forest, and from the bodies of every magical beast, converging towards Huo Yuhao.

Even the Holy Dragon emitted light that drifted towards Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao felt a warm and vast torrent surge into his body. This power was not violent, but it was incredibly profound and enduring. Like a spring breeze and gentle rain, it nourished his soul and Divine Power.

The Second Soul Core —a Spiritual Soul Core— was formed in an instant under this state, which also propelled Huo Yuhao's Soul Power to increase once again.

Level 70, breakthrough!
