Huo Lei and Huo Feng's Strength Soars
Being able to absorb and integrate energy into the body is certainly a wonderful thing, as it enhances one's physical fitness in all aspects. However, if the energy absorbed by the body is too large, exceeding the body's tolerance, the consequences will be absolutely disastrous. At best, it will cause meridians to rupture and render the person useless; at worst, it will lead to the body exploding and death.
"The Sky Azure Bull Python's Soul Ring was already a huge shock to me, but I didn't expect its Soul Ring Soul Bone to be so domineering. Fortunately, I managed to absorb it. Normally, absorbing Soul Bone shouldn't be this difficult. Could it be that the Sky Azure Bull Python's Soul Ring and Soul Bone resonated with each other, causing a resistance? Tang Hao once said that Soul Bones could be absorbed at will, without any level restrictions. That was pure nonsense. It seems Tang Hao is a liar too, in cahoots with Flender and Yu Xiaogang from the Shrek Academy. No wonder they're on the same side."
Two thoughts flashed through Huo Lei's mind. Huo Lei then calmed his mind and began to concentrate on fusing the Soul Bone.
Another hour passed, Huo Lei finally succeeded in fusing the Left Arm Bone of the Sky Azure Bull Python. When he awoke, he found that his father, Huo Feng, had also stood up from the ground. Clearly, he had also successfully fused the Soul Bone of the Titan Giant Ape.
Huo Lei looked at Jin Shan, who was protecting him, and smiled, "Master, I have finished fusing my Soul Bone. Let's go to the other side of the lake!"
"Okay," Jin Shan replied with a smile.
Huo Lei unleashed his Thunder Wings and soared into the air, flapping his wings as he flew towards the opposite shore of the lake where his father was.
Jin Shan flashed by, and when he reappeared, he was already on the other side.
Huo Lei landed beside Huo Feng and asked with a smile, "Dad, how do you feel after absorbing the Titan Giant Ape's Soul Ring and Soul Bone? How many levels of Soul Power did you gain?"
Huo Feng laughed heartily, "Haha! I feel great, my whole body is full of power. The Titan Giant Ape's Soul Rings and Soul Bones are indeed extraordinary. Not only did they provide me with four Soul Skills, but they also gave me more than three levels of Soul Power. Now my Soul Power is level ninety-three."
Huo Lei's face was full of smiles. "Congratulations, Father, on becoming Titled Douluo. You should also choose a resounding title for yourself."
Huo Feng nodded and said, "My martial Martial Soul is One-Horned Flame Tyrannosaurus, so how about we call him 'Fire Dragon Douluo'? It sounds pretty impressive."
"Not bad! It sounds nice." Huo Lei nodded in approval.
"Young Master Lei, you absorbed Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone. How much has your Soul Power Level increased? It should be more than the Dean's, right?" Lin Yin walked up and asked curiously.
Lin Yin's curious question drew the attention of Jin Shan, An Jun, and Huo Feng to Huo Lei. They were clearly also curious to know how much Soul Power the Sky Azure Bull Python, the emperor of the forest, could provide to Huo Lei.
Feeling the curious gazes directed at him, Huo Lei smiled wryly and said, "I haven't attached my Eighth Soul Ring yet, so the Soul Power energy provided by the Sky Azure Bull Python's Soul Ring and Soul Bone is still stored within my body. Only after my Flame Martial Soul attaches its Eighth Soul Ring will this energy be converted into a level increase. However, my level increase should be greater than my father's, since my Soul Power Level is relatively low!"
"Oh! I was Shi Xing that I overlooked that point. I'm truly ashamed," Lin Yin said, realizing his mistake.
After hearing Huo Lei's explanation, Huo Feng, Jin Shan, and An Jun all realized what was going on. They looked at each other, then laughed awkwardly.
Huo Lei looked at Lin Yin beside him and asked curiously, "Lin Yin, I saw you use the Eight Spider Lances External Soul Bone, to kill Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, and also devour them. Did your body gain any benefits?"
"Replying to Young Master Lei, I have indeed benefited. After absorbing the bodies of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, my Soul Power increased by one level, and my level has now reached level seventy-nine. By the way, I also obtained two Storage Rings from them, and a Right Leg Bone from Ghost Douluo." Lin Yin replied to Huo Lei while taking out the two Storage Rings and the Soul Bone from his Storage Ring.
Lin Yin's answer surprised Jin Shan, An Jun, and Huo Feng, who were standing to the side.
Huo Lei looked at the black Right Leg Bone Lin Yin held in his palm and slowly said, "Ghost Douluo's Soul Bone belongs to the dark attribute, and it's not suitable for others to use. Fortunately, your Martial Soul doesn't discriminate based on attribute, and you're lacking a Right Leg Bone, so I'll give you this Soul Bone! It's of good quality, at least 50,000 years old. Absorbing it will at least give you a level one upgrade to your Soul Skill and add a new skill, which will greatly help your growth. I only need to take their two Storage Rings."
After Huo Lei finished speaking, he reached out and put away the Storage Rings left behind by Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.
Lin Yin said gratefully, "Thank you Young Master Lei. I will accept this Soul Bone."
Huo Feng said, "I didn't expect the Eight Spider Lances to have such abilities. Wouldn't it be much easier for you, Lin Yin, to increase your Soul Power Level in the future? You can quickly raise your Soul Power Level by relying on the Eight Spider Lances' devouring skill."
Lin Yin said, "In response to the Dean, theoretically speaking, that's a valid interpretation."
"The Devouring skill is somewhat evil. Lin Yin, you must guard your heart and not go astray. I won't restrict your use of it, but you can't rely on it too much. Use it freely when dealing with enemies, but if it harms innocent people, I won't forgive you." Huo Lei gave Lin Yin his advice.
Lin Yin assured him, "Young Master Lei, rest assured, I will certainly keep that in mind."
Huo Lei pointed his right hand at the Sky Azure Bull Python on the opposite bank and said to Lin Yin, "Lin Yin, the Sky Azure Bull Python on the other side of the lake is too big, and it takes up too much space if you put it away. I'll give it to you!"
"Thank you, Young Master Lei." Lin Yin's eyes flashed with excitement as he thanked Huo Lei and then got up to run towards the other side of the river.
Watching Lin Yin's departing figure, Huo Feng looked at Huo Lei with concern and said, "Huo Lei, the Eight Spider Lances' Devouring skill is too powerful. Can Lin Yin really hold onto his true self?"
Huo Lei said, "Dad, don't worry! Lin Yin is a reliable person. Besides, he'll be with me almost every day from now on, and I'll keep an eye on him. If he really shows any signs of going astray, I'll cripple his Eight Spider Lances immediately."
Huo Feng nodded and said nothing more.
Although the Sky Azure Bull Python was powerful and the undisputed emperor of the Star Dou Great Forest, most of its energy had been converted into Soul Rings and absorbed by Huo Lei. Even though the Sky Azure Bull Python had very little energy left, this remaining energy still allowed Lin Yin, who had just broken through to level 79, to raise his Soul Power to the peak of level 79.
As expected of the Sky Azure Bull Python, it was the overlord of the Star Dou Great Forest. It took Lin Yin half an hour just to devour its body energy.
At the same time, the Eight Spider Soul Bones behind Lin Yin became even more vivid and bright.
After learning about Lin Yin's situation, Huo Lei made a decision: he would give him the body of the Titan Giant Ape to help him break through to level 80, so that he could obtain his Eighth Soul Ring in the Star Dou Great Forest.
With the help of the Titan Giant Ape King of the Forest's body, Lin Yin, who was at the peak of level 79, finally broke through to level 80.
Although the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape were enormous, they visibly shriveled up rapidly under the terrifying devouring power of the Eight Spider Lances, eventually turning into skin and bones and disappearing into dust before everyone's eyes in the gentle breeze.
