Chapter 20 Han Li: I once developed drug resistance from taking drugs, but I didn't see my foundation being unstable! [Seeking monthly votes]
This hilarious scene stunned the entire Evil Eye Clan present.
It also stunned Chu Feng and a portly middle-aged man standing before the soul guide screen.
At this moment, within Huo Yuhao's sea of consciousness,
the Evil Emperor, clad in a dark robe, lazily reclined upon his blood-red throne. His slightly pale face, a pair of pupils shone with a captivating light.
He tapped the armrest, his fingertips creating tiny cracks in the air.
"You just said... you are the Evil Emperor?"
The Evil Eye Tyrant, sliding to his knees at lightning speed, was connected to Huo Yuhao's sea of consciousness.
Suddenly, the Evil Eye Tyrant sensed four terrifying auras within Huo Yuhao's sea of consciousness, so terrifying that it dared not raise its head.
All six of its tentacles knelt on the ground, a human-like fear emanating from its enormous eyes.
"Your Majesty, I was wrong, I was wrong... I shouldn't have used your name."
"Your Majesty, the Evil Emperor, you are finally back! Alas, our Evil Eye Clan is in a dire plight.
I hope you can lead us out of this desperate situation and back to our peak!"
The Evil Eye Tyrant spoke, wiping his enormous tears with a tentacle.
"Alright, get up! What's the point of crying like that?"
"You should step aside first. Follow my master later."
The Evil Eye Tyrant's enormous eyes widened as he muttered, "Master... Master?"
"How could someone be worthy of being the Evil Emperor's master?"
"He... He's Spirit Ice Douluo!"
The Evil Eye Tyrant suddenly remembered a legend he had heard from his elders since childhood.
One day, ten thousand years ago, two spiritual forces, powerful enough to annihilate heaven and earth, appeared above the Demonic Forest.
Even the sky seemed to be ripped apart, countless soul beasts, frightened to the point of urinating and excreting, were terrified by these two spiritual energies.
It was on that day that the Evil Eye Clan's strongest member, the Evil Emperor, perished, transforming into the spirit of Spirit Ice Douluo.
Because their Demon Forest had not signed a contract with the Spirit Transmission Pagoda, it lacked its protection.
Eventually, a large number of soul masters, unable to obtain spirits in time, flooded into the Demon Forest, slaughtering soul beasts to obtain spirit rings.
...
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, observing the Evil Emperor's blood-red throne, couldn't help but marvel.
"This Evil Emperor is truly impressive! I, the Great Emperor Tianmeng, could never match his energy!"
The Evil Emperor glanced at Tianmeng Ice Silkworm with a sidelong glance. "After ten thousand years, you're worthy of being called an emperor?"
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's face flushed with anger. "Things are different now. I, the Great Emperor Tianmeng, will become the first Emperor of Wisdom in the history of Douluo Continent to comprehend all dharmas."
"Doesn't that mean you're incapable of fighting?"
Tianmeng Bingcan was momentarily speechless. "You...
forget it. This Emperor won't bother with a simple-minded, muscular fellow like you!"
The Evil Emperor looked towards the Ice Emperor, dressed in a Taoist robe, quietly refining an elixir in the corner.
A puzzled expression crossed his face. "Why is the Ice Emperor playing with fire?"
Then, the Evil Emperor looked at Alex, a flicker of respect crossing his face before a slight nod. "Master Yi."
Only when facing Alex did the Evil Emperor display such rare respect.
Ten thousand years ago, only Alex could completely defeat him in his foremost area of psychic power.
Furthermore, the Soul Spirit Technique was almost entirely invented by Alex himself.
Alex's mastery of psychic power captivated the Evil Emperor.
Huo Yuhao's voice chimed in, "Long time no see, Evil Emperor!"
The Evil Emperor stuttered, "Master... Master."
"I told you, just call me Yuhao. Haven't you been used to calling me Yuhao?"
"How come after sleeping for ten thousand years, we've become distant again?"
Ever since his defeat at Huo Yuhao's hands and becoming his spirit,
the Evil Emperor and Huo Yuhao had been deeply bound together, sharing both their success and their failure.
Only when Huo Yuhao became a god could he be reborn!
Shortly after becoming a spirit, the Evil Emperor witnessed Huo Yuhao perform one miracle after another.
Though naturally arrogant, after spending time with him, he wholeheartedly accepted Huo Yuhao as his master.
Naturally, Huo Yuhao wouldn't use their previous conflict to show off in front of the Evil Emperor. After all, he wasn't someone as petty as Tang Fozu.
So, Huo Yuhao told the Evil Emperor to call him "Yuhao," just like the other spirits.
"Okay, Yuhao, besides being awakened by that unworthy descendant, the main reason you awakened me this time is because I need your spirit rings!"
Huo Yuhao smiled, "Of course."
He then told the Evil Emperor all about the changes in the laws of the Douluo Continent ten thousand years later, and how, after forming contracts with the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and the Ice Emperor, both souls had awakened unique divine skills.
Shortly thereafter, Huo Yuhao severed his spiritual connection with the Evil Eye Tyrant and stored its spirit body in his spiritual sea.
Huo Yuhao then found Gu Yuena, and the two spent a full day and night slaying every soul in the primary Soul Ascension Platform.
The next day, when they exited the platform, they found Chu Feng still waiting in front of the soul guide screen.
Standing beside him was a portly middle-aged man, who was gazing at Huo Yuhao with a fiery gaze.
Huo Yuhao bowed to Chu Feng, "Teacher."
Chu Feng smiled faintly, "You, boy, never cease to surprise me."
" I originally thought that this Evil Eye Tyrant would cause you a lot of trouble.
I also wanted to see what you, who are always calm, would look like when you are in trouble!
I didn't expect that you could deal with it so easily."
Huo Yuhao scratched his head: "I don't know what happened.
I just used my mental power to stimulate the Evil Eye Tyrant, and then he slid to his knees in an instant.
Maybe it's because I'm too handsome?"
Chu Feng laughed and scolded: "You kid went to school with Miss Gu Yuena for a semester, and you have become so narcissistic?
Okay, let's talk about business first. Let me introduce someone to you. This is my senior brother, named Han Li, an eighth-grade alchemist."
Huo Yuhao was shocked and saluted: "Hello, Uncle Han!"
"Haha, not bad, not bad.
Uncle also watched your trial just now. Junior Brother Chu is right, you are truly a well-deserved genius!
"I heard you can refine pills?"
Huo Yuhao smiled awkwardly. "Uncle Master, I'm sorry to disappoint you. I don't. It's one of my spirits who can."
Han Li's eyes widened. "What? A spirit can refine pills?"
Chu Feng laughed, "Yuhao is not only exceptionally gifted in cultivation, he's also awakened a unique divine skill!
I invited you here today to help Yuhao's spirit further advance in alchemy!"
Huo Yuhao then unleashed Ice Emperor, allowing her to demonstrate her alchemy skills in front of Han Li. Han Li
applauded as Ice Emperor refined a fourth-grade pill.
In three years, from a complete beginner to a fourth-grade alchemist, he was truly a prodigy!
Han Li couldn't help but sigh, "Ten thousand years ago, elixirs were just a minor technique for spirit masters to quickly increase their soul power.
And the art of alchemy is often criticized: only the protagonist taking pills is considered a solid foundation."
"And if a supporting character takes elixirs, their foundation will definitely be unstable!"
Then, Han Li said, seemingly a little angrily, "Humph! That's nonsense!
It's clearly because their alchemy skills are too poor!
I've lived for so many years and have never been in a relationship, so I'm definitely not the protagonist!
But I've taken drugs and developed a tolerance, and I didn't see any signs of unstable foundation!"
