In the center of Mingdu, Qingse Hotel is owned by Xishui League.
The five-story building on the ground is not too eye-catching. The real secret of this hotel lies underground.
There is a huge golden hall with a circular dome tens of meters underground. In the middle of the hall, there is a wide circular space. Around the open space, rows of seats were placed, enough to accommodate thousands of people. Above the hall, there are circular rooms suspended one after another.
This is the underground golden hall of Qingse Hotel. It is the largest auction house of Xishui Alliance in Mingdu. Even members of the royal family will secretly come here to participate in the underground auction.
There is no auction currently taking place in the auction house, but people are constantly arranging it on the central platform, neatly placing experimental tables dedicated to making soul guidance devices on it.
In the VIP room suspended in the middle of the golden hall, Fengling, the deputy leader of the Holy Spirit Sect, was asking the second elder and others.
"Second Lao San, have the arrangements for this Underground Soul Master Competition been made? How many people will come to our Xishui League competition area to compete?"
Nangong Wan, the leader of the Xishui Alliance and the second elder, said: "The news has been sent out, and it is expected that at least one or two hundred soul masters will sign up."
The third elder also said: "Not only the soul masters, the news has also been informed to the major nobles and wealthy businessmen. The prince prohibits gambling in this soul master competition. They will definitely not give up participating in the underground soul master competition."
Fengling nodded with satisfaction: "We must make good use of this opportunity. Making some gambling money is the second most important thing. The key is to take the opportunity to control the rare metal deposits in the hands of the Xishui Alliance."
"I don't know if there are any young strong men among those soul masters who are worthy of recruiting. Lao San, it shouldn't be a problem for your two apprentices to win the top three. At that time, they will represent the Xishui League and kill the Ordinary League and the Aodu Chamber of Commerce. Spirited."
The third elder chuckled and said, "Don't worry, deputy leader, they are all sixth-level soul masters."
Feng Ling nodded slightly and changed the topic: "Besides the Underground Soul Master Competition, there is another important thing, huh?"
She was about to continue speaking when she suddenly frowned and was keenly aware of a figure that suddenly broke into the golden hall.
"Holy Son? Why is he here?" Fengling floated out of the VIP room and flew towards the other party.
The figure that suddenly broke in was Huo Yuhao. He had black hair and had changed his identity on the way here.
Fengling asked in confusion: "Shengzi, shouldn't you and Zhang Peng be preparing for the competition at the Mingyue Hotel? What are you doing here?"
Huo Yuhao smiled and replied: "Deputy Leader, I'm here to see how the preparations for the Underground Soul Master Competition are going."
Fengling said: "Shengzi doesn't need to worry about this kind of thing. It's better to go back and prepare for the game."
Huo Yuhao flipped his fingers, and a sixth-level soul engineer badge appeared in his hand.
He deliberately paid attention to the fact that there was no mark of Mingdetang on this badge, but an ordinary badge, in case the Holy Spirit Cult discovered his relationship with Mingdetang.
"This..." The third elder, Underworld Thunder Douluo, did not know when he appeared next to Fengling. He was shocked when he saw the badge. He stretched out his right hand, activated his soul power, and sucked the badge in Huo Yuhao's hand into him through the air. Palm.
"This is the sixth-level soul master badge. Lord Holy Son, you are actually a sixth-level soul master!"
He could not conceal his surprise, and looked at Huo Yuhao with eyes full of ecstasy.
The Holy Son is currently less than twenty years old, but he has become a sixth-level soul engineer. What does this mean?
This means that he will definitely break through to the ninth level soul master in the near future.
The third elder himself is a ninth-level soul engineer, so he can better understand the extraordinary aspects of it.
The second elder was also surprised and asked: "Lord Holy Son, where did Master You learn the technology of making soul tools?"
Huo Yuhao smiled calmly: "I have been wandering in Mingdu before, and I have to deal with soul masters. Under the influence of my ears and eyes, I naturally became self-taught."
"This... you can break through the sixth level without any disciples?" Fengling and the second elder were stunned at the same time, and the third elder even suffered a cardiac arrest.
Learning the soul guide is not easy. If you don't go to the academy to study and accept the teacher's guidance, you have to take many detours.
There are many self-taught soul teachers in small workshops in the Ming capital, but firstly they have not received systematic theoretical education, and secondly they do not have the rare metal quota provided by the academy as practical training, so it is difficult for them to grow up quickly.
Theory and practice are indispensable, coupled with the constraints of cultivation, it is difficult for those self-taught soul masters to break through the second or third level.
But Huo Yuhao was able to break through the sixth level, which was simply unheard of.
The third elder immediately shouted: "Lord Holy Son, learn how to make soul guides with me. I guarantee you that you will definitely be the youngest ninth-level soul guide on this continent."
In addition to the mysterious spirit of the Holy Spirit of the Dead, the Holy Son actually has such a powerful soul mentor talent. If he can be accepted as a disciple, his status in the sect will be unprecedented.
However, he didn't understand why Huo Yuhao revealed his soul master level now.
Thinking of this, the third elder couldn't help but want to slap himself.
The rewards of the underground soul fighting arena that the Holy Son went to were rare metals, and what kind of people would be interested in rare metals? Soul mentor.
Fengling looked up to the sky and smiled: "Haha, Lord Saint Son is really full of surprises. Come, let's go into the VIP room and talk."
Huo Yuhao nodded and followed Fengling and the others into the VIP room.
After a brief conversation, the second elder asked: "Lord Holy Son, are you saying that you want to participate in the underground soul master competition?"
Huo Yuhao nodded: "Exactly."
The third elder waved his hand, and several rare metals were immediately placed on the table.
"Lord Holy Son, please."
He looked at Huo Yuhao with burning eyes, now he wanted to witness with his own eyes Huo Yuhao's ability in making soul tools.
Huo Yuhao did not refuse. He glanced at the materials on the table and quickly made a choice in his mind.
He flipped his right hand again, and the Living Blade appeared in Huo Yuhao's palm.
Since the second martial soul and identity had to be concealed, the Emperor Sword Carving Knife that had been used before could no longer be used, so he had to invite this old friend.
The living blade quickly scratched across a piece of metal, cutting off a tetrahedron easily and without any resistance.
"What a great sword." The second elder and the third elder both praised in their hearts.
What Huo Yuhao wants to make this time is a soul guidance device with a completely new direction.
Two yellow, two purple, and two black soul rings, a total of six soul rings suddenly appeared behind Huo Yuhao, and then slowly overlapped and merged into a gray soul ring.
Deadly and heavy pressure radiated from the gray soul ring, and the eyes of Fengling and others flickered.
The gray soul ring of the Holy Son is like the Holy Emperor's decree. No matter how many times you admire it, you will never get tired of it.
This is a feeling that makes all the evil soul masters admire from the bottom of their hearts. Even though they are already titled Douluo, their hearts are filled with admiration.
The gray soul ring flashed slightly behind Huo Yuhao. He moved his lips quickly and recited obscure undead magic spells.
A strange gray energy slowly poured into the tetrahedral metal block in his hand along the blade of life.
This soul guidance device is a soul guidance device that Huo Yuhao created based on his research on his own magic eye martial arts and undead magic to attack at the spiritual level.
With his current level of powerful mental power, it is enough to surpass the average Contra-level powerhouse, and the integration of soul power and mental power is becoming more and more perfect.
There are several reasons why I decided to study the production of spiritual attribute soul guides.
The obelisk he encountered during the ascension ceremony was a successful case, telling Huo Yuhao that soul tools that could influence the spirit were feasible.
Compared with physical attacks, mental attacks are more difficult to defend against, and the consequences seem to be more serious.
For the person being attacked, there seems to be no way to avoid the invisible collision of mental power, and they can only use their mental power to resist it.
If your mental strength is strong enough, it will be fine. If it is not strong enough, you may become dizzy and unconscious, or your brain may burst.
Therefore, Huo Yuhao has long been disinterested in fighting between people of the same level.
With his mental power that far exceeds that of the same level, coupled with the soul power of those who come after him, very few people of the same age can withstand his soul impact. If he uses the ultimate ice martial soul and other means, the opponent can Said there was no chance of winning.
However, mental attribute attacks also have disadvantages, that is, when faced with a target whose mental or soul power far exceeds one's own, there will be backlash.
Huo Yuhao began to think about whether he could use the soul guide as an intermediary to avoid the backlash of failed mental attacks.
While he was concentrating on inscribing, Tianmeng in the sea of spirits clapped his hands and praised: "Yuhao is great! In this way, all the backlash of the mental attack is transferred to the soul guide, and even if it explodes, it will not affect you at all. Own."
The Ice Emperor praised speechlessly: "Yuhao, why do I feel that you are always thinking of some tricks?"
"This process has a special name, it's called White Gloves." Huo Yuhao smiled and swiped the Soul-Watching Blade in his hand for the last time, completing the inscription of the core array.
Fengling on the side was admiring Huo Yuhao's movements with satisfaction. The second elder and the third elder were dumbfounded.
The second elder asked: "Third brother, how does the level of the Holy Son's soul master compare to those of your disciples?"
The third elder murmured in his mouth, unable to hear clearly what he was saying. He just looked at Huo Yuhao's performance with approval.
Huo Yuhao took a few more pieces of ordinary metal, and after some forging, the main part of the soul guide was quickly completed.
He took the core array with his right hand and inserted it into the main part like a card. With a few clicks, he announced that the soul guide was officially completed.
The third elder quickly stepped forward.
This is a gray soul tool similar to a grenade and a bomb. It is only about the size of a palm and can be easily held in your hand.
"Is this...a soul bomb?" The third elder frowned.
Judging from the appearance, this should be a soul bomb, but he just didn't see Huo Yuhao's core formation inscribed with explosions.
Although the specific effect is unclear, judging from the complexity and exquisiteness of the inscription, this can definitely be regarded as a level six soul tool.
The gray bomb exuded an inexplicable and terrifying aura.
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly: "Third Elder, I wonder if a wild guy like me can participate in the Underground Soul Master Competition?"
The third elder quickly came to his senses, laughed loudly and said, "Lord Holy Son, of course you are qualified."
"It's just that you need to know that there is a battle part in this underground soul master competition. Soul masters are required to use their own soul guides to compete. I wonder what the name of the soul guide you made is and how powerful it is?"
The corners of Huo Yuhao's lips raised: "There is no need for the third elder to worry. This is the soul guide that I made by merging the soul of the Holy Law of the Dead. The Death Bomb is powerful enough to threaten a soul emperor."
"It's a pity that I can't make any more in the short term. This one will be gone after you use it. How about waiting until the Underground Soul Engineer Competition to let you witness its power with your own eyes?"
The third elder did not speak, but looked at Fengling questioningly.
Fengling nodded lightly: "In that case, we will wait patiently for a few days."
"I believe that with the strength of the Holy Son, he will definitely win the championship of the soul mentor competition."
The second elder chuckled and said: "In this competition, we have invited a level nine custom-made soul-guided artillery shell as the championship reward. Lord Holy Son, it seems that this must be your bag."
Huo Yuhao smiled softly and said, "That's natural."
Fengling finally nodded and looked a little more serious. She looked at the two elders and asked, "The discussion of the Underground Soul Master Competition has come to an end for now. How are the people under your command, especially the evil soul masters, doing recently?"
The second elder frowned and said, "Deputy Leader, although we have repeatedly stressed the need to be well hidden, evil soul masters still disappear from time to time and strongholds are destroyed."
"We have now issued an order for the five, six, seven and eight to inspect various strongholds on a regular basis. Recently, there has been no news of the destruction of the stronghold."
Feng Ling looked at Huo Yuhao with a solemn expression: "Holy Son, you must pay attention to safety and try to stay with the elders and don't act alone."
Huo Yuhao showed a regretful smile: "Deputy leader, I strictly abide by the religious rules and have even stopped going out to hunt for souls. You see, my cultivation level has been stuck at level 63 for a long time."
In order to dispel possible suspicions, since the time of the Zhongli brothers, Huo Yuhao began to deliberately suppress his own cultivation when absorbing the soul power of the evil soul master, and continuously compressed his soul power in his dantian, so that his level would not increase.
As long as his level doesn't increase, it seems like there won't be any suspicion on him, right?
Fengling frowned: "In just a few months, there were more than a dozen elders in the sect, dozens of evil soul masters were killed, and even Zhong Litian's three servants died."
"This shows that there may be some force secretly targeting us."
"Who do you think it could be?"
The second elder and the third elder also looked solemn.
The Holy Spirit Sect has always done things in secret. How could it be secretly targeted like this?
"Is it the Ordinary Alliance? Or the Aodu Chamber of Commerce?" the second elder asked after thinking for a moment.
As the leader of the Xishui Alliance, he naturally thought of these two underground forces.
"Probably."
Fengling frowned and glanced at Huo Yuhao aside: "Holy Son, do you have any clues?"
After Huo Yuhao pretended to think for a moment, he replied in a deep voice: "I don't know."
"Deputy leader, second elder, third elder. I'm going back to Mingyue Hotel first."
The third elder stood up quickly: "Holy Son, I will escort you."
Huo Yuhao declined politely: "Third Elder, Mingyue Hotel is not far from here, and this is at the foot of the Imperial City in broad daylight. Do you think something will happen to me?"
Fengling smiled and said, "Third brother, you don't have to be so sensitive. No one dares to do anything under the Xu family's nose."
The third elder then put it down, but finally said: "Holy Son, we will discuss it again after the competition is over."
…
Huo Yuhao left Qingse Hotel and walked on the streets in the center of Mingdu, throwing the gray undead bomb in his hand.
Electrolux's surprised voice sounded: "Yu Hao, you can actually integrate undead magic with the technology of this world. You seem to have opened up a new path for me that I never imagined."
Huo Yuhao smiled and said: "Yilao, interdisciplinary and cross-field research will become mainstream sooner or later."
He looked at the undead bomb in his hand.
Different from ordinary soul bombs, this undead bomb will not explode when thrown at the enemy. Instead, it will release a terrifying soul shock that targets the soul and spirit of creatures within ten meters in diameter.
Indiscriminate mental attacks are not only unstoppable, but can also penetrate defensive shields, enough to make a soul emperor who has no mental defenses dizzy.
If an attack hits a strong person, there will be no backlash and one's true identity will not be exposed.
"Next time, try combining this with fixed soul-guided cannonballs."
Huo Yuhao put away the undead bomb and walked towards the Mingyue Hotel.
"Are you in such a hurry to go back?" A cold voice sounded in his ears.
Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to the right and looked at the source of the sound.
At some point, Snow Emperor appeared beside him and walked side by side with him.
"Xue Emperor, why did you come out?"
Emperor Xue said calmly: "You don't have to cover up anyone's eyes now. How about taking me, the team leader, and your two pre-selected members around?"
Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"as you wish."
I've been reading the original works these days. Isn't Ye Guyi the Holy Angel Martial Spirit? So in theory, should there be a family of holy angels behind her?
