"Yuhao, you should try absorbing a portion of the remaining Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow into your body. This will fill you with Ultimate Ice elemental energy, which will greatly benefit your future cultivation," Snow Empress said with a smile as she gazed at Huo Yuhao.
She was in an excellent mood. Not only had she shed her frail child like form, but her strength had also recovered significantly. She now felt that becoming Huo Yuhao's soul spirit was undoubtedly the best decision of her life.
Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass hesitated. "Snow Empress, can Yuhao really absorb that much of the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow? We soul spirits can handle it, but Yuhao's cultivation still isn't strong enough. Plus, he already has a large amount of sealed origin power in his body. If he absorbs too much, he might explode."
Snow Empress reassured him, "Your concern is valid, Octagonal. Yuhao does have a significant amount of origin power sealed within him. Expecting him to fully absorb all the remaining Profound Ice Marrow and immediately refine it would be unrealistic."
Ice Empress glanced at Snow Empress. "Snow, do you have a solution for this?"
She had known Snow Empress for many years and understood her personality well there was no way she would intentionally harm Huo Yuhao. So, did she have a special method to solve the issue?
Snow Empress nodded. "Of course. Ice, I have a special technique that will allow Yuhao to store the excess Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow within his soul power without absorbing it all at once.
If you think of Yuhao's soul power as water, then the Profound Ice Marrow would be like frozen ice shards. As time passes, Yuhao can gradually absorb and refine the stored energy whenever he needs it. The best part? It won't take up space in the sealed origin power areas."
Ice Empress' eyes lit up. "That's actually a brilliant idea."
Snow Empress turned to Huo Yuhao. "Yuhao, this is my plan. If you're okay with it, we can start now."
Huo Yuhao had no objections. "Alright, let's do it your way."
Immediately, five Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow fragments floated toward Huo Yuhao, encircling him while emitting a soft white glow. Pure Ultimate Ice elemental energy surged into his body.
After some time, all five fragments had transformed into pure Ultimate Ice energy, entering Huo Yuhao's body. However, the majority of it was sealed within his soul power rather than being absorbed immediately. If his soul power was like liquid, then this energy was like suspended ice particles.
Even so, a portion of the energy was refined, boosting his cultivation significantly. Since he had already absorbed multiple soul bones and undergone a second martial soul awakening early, his physical endurance far surpassed that of the original timeline's Huo Yuhao when he absorbed the Profound Ice Marrow.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao had officially reached Rank 57, Soul King.
"Rank 57 already? At this rate, Yuhao, you'll be a Soul Emperor soon," Skydream Iceworm said excitedly. "Back when I was captured by Di Tian, I overheard the Star Dou Forest beasts discussing the history of human soul masters. Even the strongest ones weren't as powerful as you at your age."
Huo Yuhao smiled but didn't deny it. Even Tang San, back in Soul Land 1, hadn't reached his current level at the same age. "The Ice Extreme Divine Crystals have been mined, and all the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow has been stored. Let's leave and return to the surface."
The soul spirits had no objections. They returned to his spiritual sea, and Huo Yuhao exited the secret land. After exchanging a few words with Jing Hongchen and Xuan Ziwen, he took Nan Shuishui and returned to the Sun Moon Empire.
Beyond Douluo Star
Tang San, holding his Seagod Trident, gazed intently at Douluo Star. Truthfully, he would have preferred to observe the planet directly from the God Realm, but the God of Destruction had taken control of the God Realm Core, severely weakening him.
What frustrated Tang San the most about losing power was that he now had to leave the God Realm and get closer to Douluo Star just to properly observe its changes. Otherwise, his vision from the God Realm was like looking through fog he could only see certain locations or specific individuals.
In reality, the Asura God Position wasn't this weak. If Tang San focused solely on cultivating it, he wouldn't need the God Realm Core to see clearly he could achieve it through his own strength.
But his cultivation of the Asura God Position was progressing at an excruciatingly slow pace. The reason? His great grandfather, Tang Chen, had taken several of the Asura God's trials before him. And with Xiao Wu acting as the Asura Sword's scabbard, Tang San's compatibility with the Asura God Position was actually quite poor.
All that talk about the Asura God Position being "too bloodthirsty" and the Seagod Position being "more peaceful and suitable for him" was pure nonsense just an excuse he made up to deceive others.
The real reason was simple: he wasn't a good fit for the Asura God Position in the first place.
The previous Asura God had managed perfectly fine with just that one god position and never turned into some emotionless killer. He even joked around with the previous Seagod.
"I still haven't found the 'New Star'… This must be the God of Destruction's scheme! After all, in the God Realm, he's the one who opposes me the most.
Damn it! If it weren't for him keeping an eye on me, I'd have found an excuse to descend and capture the New Star by now."
Tang San's expression darkened. If this continued, his plans would completely fall apart.
The 'New Star' had two potential uses one, as a loyal subordinate; and two, as leverage to control Rong Nianbing.
At first, when he couldn't locate the New Star, he considered having his daughter, Tang Wutong (Xiao Qi), take on that role. But Da Ming and Er Ming had leaked his plan to Xiao Wu, which ruined his backup strategy.
That left him with no choice but to keep searching for the New Star. But the longer he searched with no results, the more frustrated he became and the more he despised the God of Destruction.
Tang San's gaze shifted toward the vast ocean of Douluo Star. "Forget it. I'll harvest some Sea Soul Beasts' faith power first. I need to get stronger as soon as possible.
If I can elevate the Seagod Position to the God King level, I'll become a Dual God King. Maybe then I can crush the God of Destruction outright."
"I am the Seagod. That means all Sea Soul Beasts are indebted to me. Their debt of gratitude has only grown over time, and they will never be able to repay it.
After all, if not for my existence, their lives would have been far worse than before.
Without me, Douluo Star's Sea Soul Beasts wouldn't have survived.
So when I extract their faith power, it's not robbery it's simply them repaying their debt to me.
This is their honor!"
