Chapter 114 Secret Technique: Resurrection of the Dead!
Huo Yuhao's gaze swept over the ravaged headquarters of the Mad Lion Gang, and the gang members who were like lambs to the slaughter under the constraints of the contract. His voice was calm: "Elder Wu, killing is certainly satisfying. But if we want to truly control this Black Corner Region and ensure that the academy has no more worries, we need manpower."
"And they have no chance of resisting." Huo Yuhao smiled slightly.
Even setting aside the constraints of the oath, preventing them from even entertaining the slightest thought of betrayal, Huo Yuhao could still control their consciousness and lives even if they didn't break the oath. After all, this so-called soul oath was actually a modified slave contract taught to him by Elder Yi.
The chains binding their souls use their own soul power, and even if their soul power grows stronger in the future, the chains will also grow stronger. They can never break free of them by their own power.
The soul chains are connected to their soul core, and once the soul chains are broken, their souls will instantly collapse.
When the last sect leader who participated in the siege, pale-faced, signed the soul contract in the face of Elder Bai and Protector Xue's suffocating Dou Zong aura, all the Dou Huang forces in this chaotic land submitted.
"Elder Huo, shall we return to the academy now?" Elder Bai asked Huo Yuhao. After continuously casting the Contract and Soul Search spells, Huo Yuhao's face was already somewhat pale, and his brows betrayed his exhaustion.
Huo Yuhao shook his head and told the Elders the location of the Soul Palace branch hall that he had discovered from Protector Xue's memories.
"No rush. Let's go somewhere first." He looked at Elder Bai, a deep meaning flashing in his eyes. "Protector Xue's lair contains the soul essence they've collected over the years—which will be of some help to me."
He transmitted the hidden spatial coordinates directly to Bai Lao through mental sharing.
"You actually know so much about spatial powers!"
Elder Bai was somewhat surprised, but Huo Yuhao had already brought him too many unbelievable things. Therefore, he didn't ask any further questions, but instead stretched out his palm and ripped open the void!
"Sizzle—!"
A spatial rift, far larger than before, suddenly appeared! The violent spatial storm felt like a tangible blade scraping across my cheek.
"Go!" Elder Bai shouted, and his powerful battle aura instantly enveloped Huo Yuhao and Wu Tian.
With a slight thought, Huo Yuhao summoned Protector Xue, who followed closely behind like a loyal hound. The four figures instantly vanished into the rift. The spatial rift behind them rapidly closed.
A nauseating stench permeated the cold, black stone hall. Eerie green soulfire flickered in the skull lamps on the walls, casting distorted shadows onto the towering stone pillars.
"Tsk—I never expected that a mere Northwest Branch Hall would have such a rich fortune." Elder Bai's withered fingers brushed over a storage ring carved from strange black jade, inside which various treasures were piled up like mountains.
A rare look of surprise flashed across his aged eyes. "The Soul Palace—it's truly rolling in money."
Huo Yuhao stood in the center of the hall, his immense spiritual power like an invisible spider web, meticulously sweeping across every corner. Soon, he discovered his target—the origin of the soul.
Huo Yuhao nodded slightly: "It was indeed a bit unexpected. It's a pity—" He closed his eyes and reviewed the memories deep within Protector Xue's soul once more, confirming that there were no other branch halls.
A moment later, Huo Yuhao opened his eyes, a hint of barely perceptible regret in his eyes. "The Soul Palace has strict rules, and the locations of its branch palaces are kept strictly secret. Even Protector Xue doesn't know where Protector Tie's lair is hidden."
Without Protector Xue, a Dou Zong, to oversee things, the remaining Soul Envoys and Stewards of this branch hall are no match for Elder Bai, a peak Dou Zong.
Facing this group of Soul Hall members, Wu Tian finally got his chance to vent his anger. Several sharp streaks of blood-red battle qi flashed by, accompanied by a few screams that abruptly stopped. The entire branch hall fell into complete silence, with only the crackling sound of burning soul fire remaining.
"Is this the origin of the soul?" Looking at the transparent ball of light connected by several black chains, Wu Tian felt a slight unease and deliberately kept his distance from it.
"That's right," Elder Bai said slowly, "This mass of soul essence should be composed of tens of thousands of souls!"
"Tens of thousands of souls?" Wu Tian frowned and cursed, "That's all for one branch hall? How many branch halls are there across the entire Dou Qi Continent? What beasts!"
Huo Yuhao walked to the source of the soul and sat down cross-legged. He stretched out his hands and pressed them lightly against the viscous source of the soul. A very faint white light enveloped his hands.
【The Light of Purification】!
Buzz! The entire transparent ball of light seemed to boil instantly, as if it had been scalded. Wisps of black energy seeped out from it, representing the negative emotions hidden within the very essence of the soul.
After stripping away all negative emotions, Huo Yuhao did not let them dissipate, but instead gathered and sorted them out.
Then, Huo Yuhao silently chanted an incantation, his palm turning from white to gold, and forcefully slapped the mass of soul essence.
In that instant, Huo Yuhao extracted clusters of soul energy and injected them into each strand of negative emotion.
[The dead are resurrected!]
As if by miracle, through these negative emotions, fragments of the souls of these dead have reappeared in the world! Although they are so tiny that they cannot retain even a trace of consciousness.
"This—this—!" The shock in Bai Lao and Wu Tian's hearts was beyond words. They stared blankly with their mouths agape, unable to utter a single complete word.
Soon, these fragments of soul dissipated again. Perhaps because they took one last look at the world before completely vanishing, all their negative emotions dissipated. Only a faint trace of gratitude remained in the void.
This soul technique directly consumed about 90% of Huo Yuhao's spiritual power. At this moment, an unprecedented weakness filled Huo Yuhao's body and mind.
however!
"Ha, haha. Hahaha!" Huo Yuhao suddenly laughed, though not loudly. But anyone could tell that Huo Yuhao was laughing very happily.
There was no hysteria, no unbridled joy, just the purest, happiest smile.
Bai Lao and Wu Tian exchanged a glance, and for some reason, they also felt very happy and laughed out loud.
After a moment, his emotions calmed down. Looking at the soul essence that had shrunk considerably, Huo Yuhao manipulated his mental power to envelop it.
With the vast spiritual power as a bridge, Huo Yuhao's soul, like a greedy vortex, began to frantically absorb the energy contained within.
A warm and pure torrent of soul energy surged into the sea of his spirit! Like a bowl of hot soup on a winter's day. Huo Yuhao let out a soft sigh of relief, the weakness in his spirit and soul greatly alleviated.
The Concentration Technique was rapidly activated, guiding this massive energy to devour and refine the will of the Soul Palace experts hidden within it.
The soul, which had been somewhat dimmed from the act of cutting off its own soul to save someone, is now healing and growing stronger at a visible speed under the cleansing and nourishment of this vast and pure energy!
