Douluo: The True Eye

Chapter 150: Prioritizing Stability

While Poison Undying's thousand-meter-tall true form might seem exaggerated, its sheer size makes it inflexible, and its quality isn't strong enough, making it unsuitable for battles between powerful individuals.

However, Poison Undying, having carelessly depleted a large amount of soul power, now has to use the most effective method to break through the space in the battlefield to seek replenishment from the outside.

In this case, whether in terms of energy absorption efficiency or capacity, a hundred-meter body is naturally not as convenient as a thousand-meter one.

Moreover, while Huo Yuhao's combat methods are considered remarkable, his fundamental cultivation level remains a weakness that cannot be ignored.

Previously, when the two faced off directly, Huo Yuhao could delay by borrowing strength.

By using the opponent's power to suppress them, he indirectly narrowed the gap between his and Poison Undying's cultivation levels.

But now, with Poison Undying's thousand-meter true form unleashed, and without actively attacking, coupled with the interference of the surrounding spatial rifts, Huo Yuhao's attack methods are almost useless against Poison Undying, leaving him to quickly recover his lost soul power with the help of his soul core.

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao stopped wasting energy on blocking.

Instead, he quickly gathered the soul power and energy still under his control around himself.

By controlling the shape and range of the Truth Domain, Huo Yuhao arranged it according to certain rules, forming a faint green giant figure around himself, resembling Poison Undying's Martial Soul True Body.

However, this figure purely formed from energy is undoubtedly much more illusory than Poison Undying's towering true form.

Unlike the Martial Soul True Body, Huo Yuhao's current faint green giant figure, while seemingly humanoid, is actually composed of cleverly arranged soul power circuit structures.

It contains endless changes and mysteries, and can be modified at any time according to Huo Yuhao's will to form the soul skills and methods he needs.

Moreover, while Poison Undying was rapidly recovering his soul power, Huo Yuhao was not idle.

With both sides possessing soul cores, Huo Yuhao used the Truth Domain as a stepping stone and his controlled massive soul power as a lever.

The soul power circuits of the giant soul power figure were all modified into ultra-large spirit gathering arrays, and Huo Yuhao was also rapidly gathering and competing for the surrounding unowned heaven and earth spiritual energy.

In terms of speed alone, Huo Yuhao's energy gathering speed was even surpassing Poison Undying's.

Compared to the intensity of the previous battle, the current actions of both sides lack any probing, but the level of combat contained within is even more terrifying.

After his soul power was almost fully restored, Poison Undying's size shrunk again, returning to a hundred-meter form.

However, unlike before, faint golden light was projected from Poison Undying's dark green Martial Soul True Body, symbolizing that he had begun his Golden-level Martial Soul Second Awakening.

A huge dark green vortex formed behind Poison Undying.

Dark green bubbles surged and burst, containing terrifying poison sufficient to kill ordinary Title Douluos.

Although Poison Undying could suppress his soul power and adjust it to his previous ninety-eighth level state, the evolution of his Martial Soul was irreversible.

Under the influence of the Snow Swan Neck, and with Huo Yuhao's theoretical adjustments, Poison Undying's Martial Soul True Body had also been greatly enhanced compared to before, especially his innate poison, which he was already proud of, had become even more terrifying.

With the blessing of the Golden-level Martial Soul Awakening, it was clear that Poison Undying had no intention of holding back anything other than his soul power.

Now he wanted to test the limits of Huo Yuhao's current abilities.

After all, Super Douluo powerhouses are not to be trifled with, even if he seemed to be at a disadvantage when using ninety-seventh level soul power just now.

The converged vortex gathered a large amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy into Poison Undying's Martial Soul True Body's hands, forming a huge dark green light sphere with a diameter of about thirty meters.

With the appearance of this dark green light sphere, the surrounding space rapidly collapsed.

Dark spatial rifts formed voids, faintly obscuring the light of the dark green light sphere, but making it even more terrifying.

"Yuhao, be careful, this move is not so easy to receive!"

Poison Undying shouted loudly, and the light sphere in his hand flew out quickly.

However, its diameter became smaller and smaller, twenty meters, ten meters, one meter, but the sense of oppression it brought did not diminish at all.

Moreover, as the volume of the light sphere shrank, wherever the light sphere passed, it was completely filled with dark spatial rifts, and no light could be seen.

When it crossed a hundred meters, the space was completely penetrated by this light sphere.

In the next moment, the light sphere, which was originally hundreds of meters away from Huo Yuhao, actually appeared directly in front of him.

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao did not panic, and gently tapped his right hand, seemingly slow but actually fast.

This used the power of time, which, although only partially analyzed, could already be used by Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao accelerated his own time while slowing down the time around him, thereby giving himself ample time to react and prepare.

This was also the emergency plan that Huo Yuhao had thought of for facing powerful individuals who were good at the power of space.

After all, in the Douluo Continent, soul masters who want to begin to master the power of space must possess a cultivation level of Super Douluo, and if they want to use it skillfully, they must be high-level Super Douluos.

When facing these high-level Super Douluos, Huo Yuhao naturally could not compete with the opponent for the influence of space with his inferior soul power.

In this case, he could only find another way. Apart from specific Martial Souls and soul skills, even Super Douluos rarely could use the power of time.

Among powerful forces such as Shrek Academy and the Body Sect, there are only a few Martial Souls and soul skills that possess time attributes.

However, relying on the previous analytical ability of the Eye of Truth, Huo Yuhao still recorded them all and slowly studied them.

With Huo Yuhao pointing out, the light sphere, which had already shattered all the surrounding space and forcibly shortened the distance with Huo Yuhao, was frozen in place.

A layer of invisible ice crystals spread out from Huo Yuhao's fingertips, and the absolute zero ice crystals replaced the space originally used to stabilize the environment and froze the dark green light sphere.

Without switching Martial Souls, Huo Yuhao directly achieved this with his own body.

However, Huo Yuhao could use his two spirit souls simultaneously.

Now that he wanted to test the limits of his strength, how could he not use the Ice Dragon King spirit soul?

Controlling the giant humanoid formed by the Domain of Truth, he transformed it into pure energy, injecting and enveloping the space that had been frozen by Absolute Zero.

Immediately afterward, he propelled this layer of zero-degree space toward Poison Undying at rapid speed.

This attack had already broken through the shackles of space, ignoring the spatial distance between them.

Since a level 98 Super Douluo's soul power could shatter space, its quality and quantity were naturally unimaginably terrifying.

When it reached within a hundred meters of Poison Undying, Huo Yuhao's attack revealed that it could not directly reach Poison Undying's front instantly.

But this was already enough: Absolute Zero Burst!

A dragon's roar echoed through the sky, instantly changing the world. The seal originally formed by Absolute Zero exploded.

The ice crystal fragments that splashed out carried the residual heat of Absolute Zero, breaking through Poison Undying's viscous, domain-like pure soul power pressure.

This helped the dark green light sphere in the ice and the driving energy formed by Huo Yuhao's Domain of Truth break through Poison Undying's terrifying soul power and cross the final hundred meters again.

Seeing this situation, Poison Undying's arms swelled and slammed together, forcibly detonating the dark green light sphere that had already reached the critical point of explosion.

The terrifying soul power explosion leveled the surrounding snow, dead trees, and clouds, and even the spatial vibrations were forcibly smoothed out.

Faced with the terrifying venom splashing everywhere, Huo Yuhao chose to temporarily avoid its edge.

He directly formed a layer of Absolute Zero ice outside his body, isolating the venom's invasion.

On the other hand, Poison Undying did not suffer any losses.

After all, he had already anticipated in the previous exchange that Huo Yuhao would take advantage of his strength to counter him.

Therefore, he naturally did not create an offensive that would pose a threat or backlash against himself.

However, at this moment, the aftermath of the battle between the two had already ravaged the land within a hundred miles, causing it to sink a layer.

At the same time, the space here also showed a brief breakage, and Douluo Star's self-repair mechanism was difficult to maintain in a short time.

And the battle had reached such a point that even at the level of Super Douluo, it could be considered a serious and even high-intensity battle.

After all, under normal circumstances, whether to avoid causing too much damage or to maintain their own state, Super Douluos would not take such ruthless measures.

Poison Undying was only relying on his level 99 Limit Douluo cultivation.

Otherwise, if he were really at the level 98 state, he would have suffered some substantial damage at this time.

Perhaps it would be the consumption of original soul power, or the consumption of natal poison, but it would definitely not be a low-intensity battle.

Seeing Poison Undying stop, Huo Yuhao also put away his spirit soul and domain.

Although he had the soul core, Gold of Life, and spiritual origin as logistical support.

However, at this time, the soul power in his body was almost empty, and his mental power had also produced a lot of burden.

Even his physical body was somewhat overloaded in order to withstand the powerful force he had just used.

The accumulation of a large amount of life force in a short period of time also made it difficult for Huo Yuhao to absorb it.

"Level 97, no, level 96," Poison Undying said after a moment of contemplation.

"A Super Douluo starting at level 96, you can't do anything to him unless he risks his life."

"But if you burn your soul core, vitality, and original soul power, you absolutely can't stop it with your current ability."

"Even if you want to run, it depends on the situation. Therefore, I hope that when you face a strong person of this level, you should run away with all your strength as soon as you meet him."

"Although you also have the possibility of winning, but for you, the potential you possess is far more than that, there is no need to fight to the death with him."

"And without paying a certain price, even a level 98 Super Douluo or even a level 99 Limit Douluo may not be able to capture you, Yuhao."

"So I want you to promise me, Yuhao, that even if you want to take risks in the future, you must prioritize your own safety and never be greedy for success."

In fact, Poison Undying can now faintly determine that if Huo Yuhao really fights the other party to the point of mutual destruction, his true combat power may reach the level of an ordinary level 97 Super Douluo.

But for the sake of prudence, he still said one level lower, after all, soul power is an important factor in determining the strength of a strong person.

However, there are too many other factors such as the secret methods mastered by both parties, the strength of the spirit soul, the level of attributes, and so on.

"Yes, I will keep Master's teachings in mind."

After this battle with Poison Undying, Huo Yuhao had a pretty good idea of his current strength.

With the Eye of Truth, he could maximize all of his strength and cards.

But despite this, he himself was still too weak. If he could break through to the level of Soul Douluo or even Titled Douluo.

Then, with his current accumulation and various assets, even a Limit Douluo might not be impossible to fight.

Although such a thought flashed through his mind, Huo Yuhao still reminded himself to be cautious.

After all, apart from the Limit Douluo powerhouses on the surface.

Whether it was the Demon Emperor with a million years of cultivation, or Di Tian, whose trump card was the Dragon God's Claw passed down by the Dragon God.

Or the two divine beasts, Niu Tian and Titan, who were actually gods descending to the world as divine officials, but disguised as Limit Douluos.

There was also the severely injured Silver Dragon King and Tang San, the two parents who usurped the life core and world master of Douluo Star.

Their strength far surpassed the level of ordinary Limit Douluos.

The power that Huo Yuhao currently possessed was only enough to give him a certain say in this world.

It was far from enough for him to let go and continue his plan.

'Be steady and don't be arrogant,' Huo Yuhao said to himself secretly.

Then Huo Yuhao asked Poison Undying: "Master, during the days of my seclusion, has there been any other change in the situation on the Douluo Continent?"

Hearing this, Poison Undying nodded: "Yes, this is what I wanted to tell you, but this is not the place to talk about things, let's go back to the sect first."

And this mess after the two rampaged was gradually recovering, with heavy snow falling again, and the damaged space self-repairing.

After a few more years, when the traces of the two's battle disappeared, this place should return to its original appearance.
