"It's a success?" Joy was written all over Huo Yuhao's face. Like a tempestuous youth, he flew over to his third soul ring.
"Hmph, with Brother's vast energy, as long as there is sufficient Rakshasa divine power, condensing nine soul rings for you would be nothing!" The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm crossed its small hands over its chest, looking incredibly arrogant.
"It took some time, but it's finally made. However, before you absorb it, you need to prepare a spatial-attribute soul bone of over ten thousand years," Bibi Dong wiped the sweat from her forehead. Continuously expending Rakshasa divine power to create god-bestowed soul rings for Huo Yuhao, while replicating the level of that age without damaging its million-year quality, was no easy task for her. She couldn't just split the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's million-year soul ring into four 250,000-year soul rings; the loss would be far too great.
The limit of what Bibi Dong could do was to create the second through fifth soul rings for Huo Yuhao. The second soul ring, based on the simulation characteristic inherent to the ice silkworm clan, was a replica of a million-year soul ring, and also the most practical and insidious exclusive skill of Huo Yuhao in the original plot.
As for the original world line's third to fifth soul skills for Huo Yuhao—Group Enfeeblement, Spiritual Confusion, and Spiritual Replication—their effects were actually not that great. Spiritual Replication was almost exclusively used to replicate Xu Sanshi's Xuanming Displacement skill. Therefore, Huo Yuhao had no intention of acquiring these "chicken rib" skills from the original novel.
"A spatial-attribute soul bone of over ten thousand years..." Huo Yuhao's face was covered in black lines. If this thing appeared at an auction, the selling price would be at least over ten million gold soul coins, and it would be the type that was priceless with no market. But he also deeply understood the importance of this soul ring skill.
"That girl from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect might have channels. You might as well ask her," Bibi Dong nudged her chin towards the outside of the spiritual sea, signaling Huo Yuhao to target her.
"Alright then..." Huo Yuhao was helpless. After all, he had just had a big falling out with the three girls over the rental room. But with his personality of always doing things his own way, even if he could do it all over again, he would still act the same.
"When you get the soul bone, then you can come and absorb this third soul ring. I'll continue making the fourth soul ring first," Bibi Dong issued an order to see him out.
Tomorrow's business can wait for tomorrow. Huo Yuhao was also tired. He exited his spiritual sea and simply drifted off to sleep.
What he didn't know was that at this moment, on the other bed, Ning Tian and Nanmen Yun'er's eyes were red with jealousy.
The reason was none other than Wu Feng, who was using Huo Yuhao as a body pillow. In the storm of natural energy, her stagnant soul power was experiencing rapid growth. If nothing unexpected happened, she should be able to directly level up tomorrow.
Looking at the blissful expression on Wu Feng's face, Ning Tian and the other girl were so regretful their intestines turned green.
We want to hug too!
A sleepless night.
The bright sunlight shone through the window into the room, illuminating the still-youthful faces of the boy and girls. Huo Yuhao only felt it was a bit glaring and groggily woke up from a deep sleep. Then, he felt as if half of his body had sunk into something soft, immersed in it, unable to extricate himself.
The morning breeze blew past, and a faint girlish fragrance drilled into his nose. Then, he felt an itchy sensation on the side of his cheek. Huo Yuhao subconsciously turned his head and came face to face with a charming and pretty face. His lips touched a moist and soft spot, and as they slightly parted, a breath that could ignite hormones was exhaled.
What's the situation? Huo Yuhao felt that his brain wasn't enough to process this. Fortunately, he was a spiritual-type martial soul master. The entire process of what had happened in the room last night was replayed in his memory.
After Wu Feng had climbed onto his bed, he had simply gone to sleep, too lazy to bother with these pampered girls. Then he saw Wu Feng directly use him as a body pillow and doze off.
However, this was not the most explosive part. Ning Tian and Nanmen Yun'er seemed to have communicated with their eyes for a while and actually climbed onto his bed as well, stacking on top of him like arhats...
What the hell? Have they never touched a male before? How can they be this thirsty?
Even when Huo Yuhao was in the Holy Ghost Cult, Zhongli Yu, who had a good impression of him, had never done anything like this.
Huo Yuhao quickly turned his head away, not forgetting to lick his lips like a thief with a guilty conscience. It had to be said that although Wu Feng's temperament was straightforward and domineering, her figure was indeed explosive and exciting among her peers. Of course, she was still a far cry from Zhongli Yu, Huo Yuhao thought to himself.
Perhaps it was Huo Yuhao's sudden movement that woke the sleeping girl. Wu Feng finally woke up slowly, and the first thing she saw was the awakened Huo Yuhao who had forcefully turned his head away.
Wu Feng's little face instantly turned as red as a ripe apple. She remembered what had happened last night. Heavens, how could she have been so bold? She quickly turned her head away, only to find that Ning Tian and Nanmen Yun'er were not in the room at all. They must have gone out early in the morning.
"Huo! Yu! Hao!" Wu Feng looked at the innocent-looking Huo Yuhao who was staring out the window, her voice filled with shame and anger as she called out his name, word by word.
"What? You took advantage of me, and now you're going to get rough with me?" Huo Yuhao played the rogue without even turning his head. Ignoring them was the best way to deal with these fussy little girls.
"You..." Just as Wu Feng was about to erupt in anger, she was surprised to find that her soul power, with the help of Huo Yuhao's strange constitution, had successfully leveled up. She was now level twenty-six. This kind of progress was simply divine. With just another month of nights like that, she was confident she could directly break through to level thirty!
But...
Just then, Huo Yuhao slowly sat up from the bed, his eyes drowsy, and said with a yawn, "It's getting late. I'll take the loss. You should get up."
"You're clearly the one who took advantage of me! And you dare to disdain me!" Wu Feng's beautiful eyes moved slightly, as if considering something. Then she put on a displeased look and directly pushed Huo Yuhao back onto the bed. Her little face turned red again at the same time.
Their eyes met. It was also the first time Wu Feng had looked at Huo Yuhao so directly. The youth's hair was a little messy, and his handsome yet sunny face had a somewhat otherworldly air. His lazy eyes were full of the pride of someone of high status, holding a fatal attraction for a girl in the bloom of youth.
Perhaps, this guy is the man destined for me!
"What are you trying to do?" Seeing Wu Feng's increasingly rapid breathing, Huo Yuhao's heart skipped a beat, and a strange feeling instantly flooded his mind.
Don't, you female T-rex!
"You bastard! I'll teach you to disdain me!" Seeing the clear trace of panic in Huo Yuhao's expression, Wu Feng was secretly pleased. She hugged Huo Yuhao's neck tightly, swooped down, and heavily blocked his mouth. Then her mind went blank.
Whatever. We've hugged, we've slept. I don't care anymore.
"Yuhao, from now on you are Brother's role model. In the future, when I'm chasing Bingbing, if I don't have you, Brother would rather be reborn," the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm once again acted as a super-sized third wheel.
Huo Yuhao was numb. It seemed he had truly run into a peach blossom calamity and was beyond saving.
Wu Feng's lips were very soft, and her movements were quite clumsy. In this atmosphere, Huo Yuhao certainly couldn't push her away. Instead, he began to reciprocate, not forgetting to let his hands wander.
"Ah——"
Just at this moment, Ning Tian and Nanmen Yun'er, who had gone out to buy breakfast, returned to their residence, and what followed was this world-shocking scene...
Bang!
Huo Yuhao was kicked out.
"You're a bit too much of a player, kid," at this time, Bibi Dong's faint voice sounded in his mind, but it seemed to hold a strange emotion.
"My charm is too great, I can't help it," Huo Yuhao rubbed his nose, which was sore from being bumped by Wu Feng, feeling quite shameless.
"If they knew you were the Holy Son of the Holy Ghost Cult, they would probably regret it, right?" Bibi Dong sneered, a hint of anger in her words.
"Holy Son? No," Huo Yuhao walked towards the inn's main door. "I am who I am. A different Huo Yuhao."
As he spoke, he slowly spread his arms, facing the clear sky, putting on an expression of enjoyment.
He really hadn't seen the sun in a long time. In the year he spent underground in the Holy Ghost Cult, there were only damp and dark stone walls.
"I estimate that the three of them will have close interactions with you from now on. Do you know why?" Bibi Dong continued to mock Huo Yuhao and left him hanging.
"Why?" Huo Yuhao was actually puzzled himself. The original Huo Yuhao had also attracted some girls like Ning Tian, but that was based on his near-prodigious talent and true strength, whereas the current Huo Yuhao had not yet shown that kind of strength.
"Semi-Life Affinity Constitution. After Tianmeng fused with you, its vast life energy and the worldly primordial power fundamentally changed your constitution. And after a year of tempering in the blood pool, you are already standing at the pinnacle of your peers. In the future, after you successfully obtain the Life Gold and integrate it into your Spirit Eyes, you will be able to completely evolve into a true Life Affinity Constitution."
Life Affinity Constitution? The passive skill of the rotten salted fish? Huo Yuhao touched his chin. Because this concept didn't appear until the fourth Douluo book, for now, only he and Bibi Dong knew about it.
"Everyone who lives by your side will be improved by the life energy your body spontaneously absorbs."
"Originally, with your Semi-Life Affinity Constitution, you wouldn't spontaneously absorb the life energy of heaven and earth. The reason for that suction force was actually me guiding it in your spiritual sea to provide nutrients for your soul rings."
"That is to say, before my first five soul rings are all created, I will have the ability to absorb life energy on my own?" Huo Yuhao pondered for a moment and understood the cause and effect. "So that's why they are willing to get close to me, to leech off the benefits of the life energy!"
"That should have been the case," Bibi Dong glanced faintly at the enlightened Huo Yuhao. There was another sentence she didn't say.
Only a girl would understand that when one truly starts to like someone, the look in their eyes is different.
It was hard to say for Ning Tian and Nanmen Yun'er, but this Wu Feng and the Saintess Zhongli Yu had clearly already planted Huo Yuhao's shadow in their hearts.
