Chapter 146: Magikarp, Possession!
"It's Magikarp!!!"
Looking at the Magikarp in his hand, Mo Hui was instantly overwhelmed with shock.
His first martial spirit was Pidgeot, and now his second martial spirit turned out to be Magikarp from Pokémon.
It really seemed like he was born with a natural Pokémon martial spirit body!
Poseidon, who stood nearby, was also filled with curiosity as she watched the blue-green giant egg in Mo Hui's hand hatch into a creature she had never seen before.
Poseidon gazed at the large fish with its golden crown and clever glint, and said to Mo Hui:
> "Is this... the martial spirit bestowed upon you by the Lord of the Sea?
It seems a little... strange."
"I didn't expect my second martial spirit to be this,"
Mo Hui replied with a sigh.
Upon hearing his words, Poseidon's eyes flashed with surprise. She immediately asked:
> "You know what this martial spirit is?"
Even she—the High Priestess of Sea God Island—had never seen this species before, and was surprised that Mo Hui recognized it.
Mo Hui nodded and said:
> "It's called Magikarp.
It's the same type of spirit as my Pidgeot."
"The same type as your Pidgeot?!"
Poseidon's face showed a look of shock.
She had personally witnessed the strength of Pidgeot—a spirit that stood among the pinnacle of top martial spirits, rivaling even those just short of divine level.
But this Magikarp, which appeared clumsy and harmless, was actually from the same spiritual origin as Pidgeot?
Seeing her expression, Mo Hui couldn't help but chuckle silently.
Gyarados really was strong.
But... Magikarp?
It wasn't that Mo Hui was looking down on Magikarp—it was just objectively weak.
In the world of Pokémon, Pidgeot might even prey on it.
Fortunately, Magikarp evolves into Gyarados, and just like Pidgeot, it can also mega evolve,
which meant its potential ceiling was incredibly high.
Pidgeot was already considered among the top martial spirits,
and once it mega-evolved, it would definitely reach the god level.
Gyarados, with its attributes of Water/Flying, was theoretically even more powerful.
And it fit perfectly with the blue-green egg infused with both the Sea God's and Wind God's divine energy.
But Mo Hui had a lingering question in his heart:
> Even if Magikarp could evolve into Gyarados...
How could such a divine-energy-infused egg, made from the Sea God's and Wind God's remnants,
only produce an ordinary Magikarp?
"Could there be something special about this Magikarp martial spirit?"
Thinking this, Mo Hui decided to test it directly:
> "No matter what, let's try spirit possession first."
Unlike Pidgeot, which was an external beast martial spirit,
Magikarp inherited the possessive nature of the Sea God martial spirit—
a type that could directly merge with the host's body.
The moment Mo Hui activated Magikarp's possession, his body grew,
red scales appeared faintly across his skin,
and a golden crown manifested atop his head.
But the real shock came when the possession completed—
> "This power...!
The enhancement from Magikarp's possession isn't weaker than some top-tier martial spirits!"
Mo Hui was stunned.
This was Magikarp?!
But thinking it over, it made sense.
His Magikarp wasn't a normal Magikarp—it was a fusion product of the Sea God's essence and the Wind God's divine energy.
Just from the quality of its origins, its strength couldn't possibly be ordinary.
Adding in the Wind God's power, it was reasonable that even an unevolved Magikarp
could rival top-tier martial spirits.
Thinking this, Mo Hui became even more eager for its evolution.
>If the current Magikarp was already on this level...
Then what level would its evolution—Gyarados—reach?
Could it be a super martial spirit like those in Douluo II, or even god-level?
Mo Hui didn't have the answer yet.
But the good news was: Magikarp evolved quickly.
So, the truth... wouldn't take long to reveal itself.
One month later...
In that time, Mo Hui continued cultivating under the Sea God's Light, tirelessly tempering both his body and soul power.
As a result, his physical strength and spiritual foundation had dramatically improved.
Now, he could stand on the 120th step of the Sea God's staircase without relying on external stimulation—
purely through his own power.
Compared to a month ago, his strength had more than doubled,
and compared to the beginning, it had increased four or fivefold.
His soul power also advanced—
Under the tremendous pressure of the divine light, he had broken through to Rank 66.
It was an astonishing pace.
At the entrance to the Sea God Temple, Poseidon watched Mo Hui meditating cross-legged on the 120th step.
She let out a breath of relief.
He had passed the Sea God's first test in a single day, which had deeply unsettled her.
> If he continued at that speed, her entire job might be meaningless.
Thankfully, after finishing the first trial, Mo Hui chose to cultivate instead of rushing into the second.
Another month and a half passed.
Mo Hui had now trained at the foot of the Sea God Temple for two and a half months.
He had advanced from step 39 all the way to step 150.
His physical body and spiritual strength were once again greatly enhanced.
Now, his physique surpassed most Titled Douluo,
and he could easily withstand the impact of absorbing a 100,000-year soul ring.
What remained was a test of willpower.
Because soul rings above 10,000 years carry residual soul consciousness,
if the soul master's mind isn't strong enough, they might be injured or even killed during absorption.
Some soul masters even deliberately lower their standards, choosing weaker soul beasts to avoid risks.
But Mo Hui had no such concerns.
His willpower and spiritual strength far exceeded his current rank.
First, because Mo Hui was a transmigrator, his spiritual essence was naturally stronger than others.
This was also why he could train without sleep just after awakening his martial spirit.
If ordinary soul masters tried to replicate his regimen, they wouldn't even reach their limits—
they'd collapse long before.
