God-Imprint Space.
On an island in the ocean, a golden dragon over thirty meters long was forced back. It looked at Huo Yuhao with some surprise.
"I did not expect that despite such a gap in cultivation, you could fight me to a draw. This truly surprises me."
As one of the three weapon spirits of the God-Imprint Throne, the Holy Sacred Dragon was responsible for this trial. And what it was best at was combat.
So the Eternal Lord had it set the trial content as fighting it and defeating it.
Moreover, unlike last time with the Eternal Angel, it would not suppress its strength.
In the Holy Sacred Dragon's view, this trial seemed a bit too much for Huo Yuhao. After all, Huo Yuhao's cultivation had not even reached the seventh rank. Even with that strange battle armor amplification, he would not be a match for a ninth rank level five opponent.
But now, it seemed the situation was not right.
Last time, after the Eternal Angel's trial, her expression was not very pleasant. When asked, she only said that this trial taker was very special. I wondered what was so special about him. I did not expect it to be this. With such skill and strength, is he a re cultivator?
The Holy Sacred Dragon thought to itself, thoroughly serious.
"Likewise. You also surprised me."
Huo Yuhao observed the Holy Sacred Dragon, and his heart also stirred.
It was not because of this Holy Sacred Dragon's strength. Although its near level 98 Super Douluo strength and abilities different from the Douluo Continent were indeed difficult to deal with, it did not make him fear it.
What he cared about was its appearance.
The Holy Sacred Dragon was wingless, had five claws on its belly, and two horns on its head. It was thirty meters long. When flying in the air, a vast seven colored light churned with it.
Yes, this was an Eastern dragon, not a Western dragon.
This surprised Huo Yuhao.
The Holy Sacred Dragon was not described much in the story of the God-Imprint Throne. He really did not remember that it was actually an Eastern dragon.
Although the world of the Qin Emperor also had the Holy Sacred Dragon race, because the final boss's death in the Qin Emperor's ending was too "absurd," Huo Yuhao had not read it in his previous life, so he was not sure if the two were the same race.
In the relatively Western fantasy world of Douluo, seeing such a "dragon," and one that was even the Creator God's mount, Huo Yuhao found it somewhat amusing.
In the Holy Sacred Dragon's view, were the dragons of Douluo actually dragons or not?
If it did not recognize them, then the Douluo dragon race would have been stripped of their dragon registration by the Creator God.
The Holy Sacred Dragon did not know Huo Yuhao's thoughts, nor was it interested.
Now completely serious, it opened its dragon mouth slightly. A condensed solid seven colored rainbow light burst out. Wherever the light passed, space even showed fine cracks. The ocean around the island instantly evaporated, creating a huge depression, revealing the crystal foundation below.
As the Holy Sacred Dragon, it could use seven elements. Earth, water, fire, wind, ice, lightning, and light. It fused through these seven elements, turning them into pure holy origin power. The seven colored rainbow light it now spat was the destructive energy formed by the fusion of the seven elements, enough to annihilate most ninth rank experts' defenses.
Huo Yuhao's gaze condensed. As his second spirit ring flashed, brilliant starlight turned into an absolute barrier, blocking all the seven colored rainbow light.
"The Eternal Angel's blessing is quite good for defense, but if you want to defeat me, you cannot act like a hiding turtle."
The Holy Sacred Dragon roared. The huge seven colored rainbow light expanded.
Domain expansion.
"As you wish."
A gray mist also spread around Huo Yuhao. Three undead Three Word Battle Armor Masters appeared and lunged at the Holy Sacred Dragon.
Netherworld Domain,expand.
This was a necromancer's power.
The Holy Sacred Dragon's eyes flickered. It snorted coldly. "A decent domain. But when undead face the light power in my domain, they will only perish."
Watching the undead walk through its domain with no sign of disappearing, the Holy Sacred Dragon's voice stopped abruptly. Its golden dragon eyes showed disbelief.
The light power in its domain should have had absolute restraint and purifying effect on undead creatures. An ordinary undead would melt like ice and snow the moment it stepped inside.
Yet these three undead were completely Unscathed.
Could this be.
The Holy Sacred Dragon, which had once followed Long Haochen, carefully identified the power on those undead. When it sensed light within them, its pupils sharply contracted.
"You are also a successor of Electrolux?"
Among the necromancers it knew, only that one had taken light and dark to the extreme and connected them.
"Indeed, he is my teacher." Huo Yuhao smiled as he answered, but his attack speed did not decrease in the slightest. Instead, it became even more fierce.
Electrolux, do you have to be so amazing? The successors of two generations of God-Imprint Thrones are actually connected to you.
The Holy Sacred Dragon's eyelids twitched. It cursed inwardly. It had no choice but to face four enemies, none of whom were weak.
The three undead Battle Armor Masters' fighting styles were extremely weird.
They did not rely on brute force to clash. Instead, as if possessing independent intelligence, they cooperated tacitly, their attack angles were tricky and vicious. What gave the Holy Sacred Dragon even more of a headache was that their attacks always carried a strange erosive power. When hitting its body, although it could not immediately break its defense, it was like a Bone Attached Tumor, constantly eroding.
Huo Yuhao himself was the most dangerous assassin. His movements were erratic, sometimes blending into the gray mist of the Netherworld Domain, sometimes striking suddenly like a golden lightning, causing it the most injuries.
If not for its domain indeed suppressing the strength of Huo Yuhao and the three undead, it might have been found vulnerable.
"I cannot wait any longer."
Thinking this, the Holy Sacred Dragon dodged while chanting. The sky seemed to boil. Large amounts of six colored halos floated in the air.
Dragon Language Magic, one of its strongest methods.
Soon, eight dragon shadows, each over a kilometer long, appeared. Each dragon was gestating a powerful breath.
Just as the Holy Sacred Dragon was about to aim its attack at Huo Yuhao and the three undead, it suddenly found that Huo Yuhao had disappeared from view.
"Your Excellency Holy Sacred Dragon, you do not seem to be skilled in spatial methods."
The Holy Sacred Dragon's eyes widened. It suddenly looked up at the sky above it.
Huo Yuhao was looking down at it from above.
The two looked at each other. Huo Yuhao's eyes suddenly burst with unprecedented brilliant golden light.
Fifth spirit ability, Thorn Halo.
Then, a dark red thorn halo appeared on the outer ring. The Holy Sacred Dragon immediately felt as if millions of needles were piercing into its Sea of Spirit at once, then pulling and dragging its own Sea of Spirit out of its body.
"Roar."
The Holy Sacred Dragon let out a pained roar. The Dragon Language Magic brewing in its mouth instantly stopped. The eight kilometer long dragon shadows, out of control, became Flickering.
Seeing this, a flicker passed through Huo Yuhao's eyes. A terrifying chill followed.
The temperature of the world, with him as the center, began to plummet. The churning seawater below silently solidified, turning into a pure white ice plain. The scattered energy embers in the air freeze into ice crystals.
The Frozen spread to the Holy Sacred Dragon's body, from its head to its neck, then to its chest, abdomen, claws, and tail.
In a few breaths, a majestic and sacred golden dragon had turned into a flawless, Lifelike giant ice sculpture, quietly suspended in the air.
"Now is the time."
Feeling his considerable consumption of spirit power, looking at the Holy Sacred Dragon's vibrant eyes within the ice, Huo Yuhao knew he could not trap it for long. But he only needed a moment.
An ice blue flame and a crimson gold flame appeared in his hands. The two touched, about to fuse.
But at the last moment, Huo Yuhao suddenly replaced the ice blue flame with the seven colored Seven Colored Lotus Flame.
This was the Creator God's dragon. He must show the highest respect.
"To express my Respect for you, let me use this move I have just completed to put an end to this battle."
The Holy Sacred Dragon felt a Great Terror brewing above its head. Its heart was filled with horror.
Two kinds of divine fire. One of them had an extremely high Rank.
It ignored its splitting headache, quickly breaking the ice over its mouth, and roared, "Stop. You have passed the trial. Stop your divine ability."
Huo Yuhao's hands paused. He clicked his tongue with some lingering regret and put away the flames in his hands.
The Holy Sacred Dragon looked at Huo Yuhao's hands with lingering fear. Confirming that thing would not land on its body, it breathed a huge sigh of relief.
If that fell on it, it would definitely die.
Not to mention two kinds of divine fire. Even that seven colored flame alone it could not stand.
In the Sea of Spirit, Skydream clicked his tongue. "Yuhao, you are so mean."
If it were the Crimson Gold Mysterious Flame and the Ice Devouring Extreme Flame, that would be one thing. Because those were powers Huo Yuhao could control, barely could fuse. But the Seven Colored Lotus Flame's Rank was too high, and its power was not comparable to the other two. Huo Yuhao could not yet do that.
If the Seven Colored Lotus Flame and the Crimson Gold Mysterious Flame were forcibly fused, the The only truly lethal thing would be the Seven Colored Lotus Flame.
Huo Yuhao, while stabilizing his aura and recovering his spirit power, said in the Sea of Spirit, "This was only a trial, not a life and death battle. My cultivation is too low. After fighting to that extent, the Holy Sacred Dragon needed a Face Saving Way Out. What better way to make it Back Off When Seeing the Difficulty than presenting two divine fires before its eyes?"
"Moreover, that is the Creator God's dragon. It must be given sufficient Respect."
The Eternal Lord, who had been Lurking, thought to itself, I think it probably did not like that kind of Respect.
After the Holy Sacred Dragon and Huo Yuhao stopped fighting, neither spoke. They focused on recovery. Only when Huo Yuhao had recovered did the dragon speak. "In the Eternal Domain, the Eternal Angel is responsible for guarding the sky, representing the power of stars. I am responsible for guarding the sea and all the magical beasts in the Eternal Domain, representing Life Force."
"Since you have defeated me, you can obtain the Life Force."
The Holy Sacred Dragon paused, then smiled. "That is, the Gift of the Eternal Domain's creatures."
As its voice fell, the Holy Sacred Dragon raised its head and chanted long. The sound waves contained an ancient and solemn rhythm, spreading far within the God-Imprint Space.
In an instant, the entire Eternal Domain seemed to come alive.
From beneath the frozen sea came strange hums. The ice melted. The seawater became clear and blue once more. Countless sea magical beasts, of various shapes, emitting powerful or strange auras, emerged from the deep sea, from the coral reefs, from various waters. They looked up religiously at the Holy Sacred Dragon and Huo Yuhao in the sky.
From the dense forest of the island came rustling sounds. Various land magical beasts, birds and animals, and even some element spirits emitting hazy halos, quietly appeared, their gazes converging here.
Countless fine light points, like fireflies, precipitate from the sea, from the forest, from every magical beast, converging toward Huo Yuhao.
Even the Holy Sacred Dragon itself had light drifting toward Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao only felt a warm and vast torrent surge into his body. This power was not violent, but extremely deep and long. It nourished his soul and spiritual power like spring wind and Rain.
The second soul core, the spiritual soul core, was instantly formed in this state, also propelling Huo Yuhao's spiritual power to rise again.
Level seventy, breakthrough.
