Chapter 40 Electrox Awakens
After taking the Azure Jade Soul-Replenishing Pill, Huo Yuhao activated the Star-Guiding Technique, guiding the vibrant green medicinal power, brimming with life force, to spread and be absorbed into every corner of his body along the path of his soul power. It was daytime, and Huo Yuhao simultaneously channeled True Yang energy, tempering his bloodline and physical body with the aid of the Azure Jade Soul-Replenishing Pill's medicinal power.
After circulating the medicinal power at full speed for no less than thirty cycles, Huo Yuhao finally absorbed all the dissipated medicinal power. He could only slowly absorb the remaining medicinal power deposited in his body little by little as his cultivation improved.
Huo Yuhao slowly exhaled a breath of stale air and opened his eyes. The sky was gradually darkening, and the sun had just set. Huo Yuhao tried clenching his fist, sensing the changes in his body. His soul power level had broken through one level, reaching level thirty-seven, and his physical strength had received another small boost after his previous fusion with the Ice Emperor and the Ice Phoenix Wings.
If Huo Yuhao's physical strength was comparable to that of an ordinary Soul King after fusing with the Ice Phoenix Wings, it is now almost on par with that of a Soul King with a powerful attack-type beast spirit. Moreover, he can clearly feel a slight amplification of his life essence; although not significant, it still greatly surprises Huo Yuhao.
Life originates from birth, and without extremely rare natural treasures or divine gifts, it is virtually impossible to amplify one's life essence. The stellar power granted to Huo Yuhao by the Star-Guiding Technique can only subtly and gradually enhance his life essence, without providing an immediate increase.
This trace of life essence may not sound like much, but it's actually like adding a drop of water to a full glass that's already fixed in shape. If the glass can't be changed, then the only way to increase the amount of water is to compress its volume and increase its density.
The Azure Jade Soul-Replenishing Pill works by subtly altering the nature of the original life essence, namely the human body, without changing its fundamental essence. It then compresses the original life essence and replenishes the remaining space, thus increasing the life essence.
Huo Yuhao truly admired the person who refined such a miraculous elixir, a product that seemed to defy the very essence of heaven and earth. Undoubtedly, that person's research into the nature of life and alchemy had reached a level of extraordinary mastery.
Not only did Huo Yuhao himself benefit, but the souls of Tianmeng, Bingdi, and even the Ice Phoenix, which had not yet hatched and been reborn, in his spiritual sea were also greatly nourished by the Azure Jade Soul-Replenishing Pill. What Huo Yuhao least expected was that the Azure Jade Soul-Replenishing Pill actually awakened Ilex.
Within his spiritual sea of consciousness, Huo Yuhao manifested his spiritual avatar.
An elderly man with silver hair, dressed in a gray robe, stood there motionless, his eyes closed, as if sensing something.
After a long while, he slowly opened his eyes and saw Huo Yuhao who had come to see him. He said calmly, "It was originally going to take me quite a while to wake up. The recovery and transformation of my consciousness is a huge undertaking. Even if we can actively draw on the power of the stars through the Star Chart to accelerate this process, it still won't be much faster."
"This is also the main reason why the big bug, the little scorpion, and the little bird that hasn't hatched are still asleep. I can sense that there is another member of the big bug's clan and a strange little creature. They are even weaker, so their sleep will only last longer, and they may not even be able to wake up on their own."
"The pill you absorbed this time helped you complete the beginning of the transformation of your life essence. This is the result of your long-term absorption of the power of the stars to temper your soul and body. The pill just gave you a push, allowing you to take this step ahead of time. This is a good thing."
"Having discussed the changes in you, let me talk about something else. Yuhao, I can see that a fierce fire of revenge is smoldering deep within you, but I can also see that you can control your emotions well and won't let this vengeful flame consume you. So I want to ask you, are you willing to accept my legacy?"
"The magical heritage from me, the Necromancer Saint, Elex."
Huo Yuhao did not hesitate, bowed and nodded, saying, "Disciple greets Master."
Electrolux chuckled, clearly in a good mood. In his right hand, Electrolux conjured a silver-gray long-handled staff, which he gently traced a strange six-pointed star array on Huo Yuhao's body. Then, a silver-gray death scythe emblem, identical to Electrolux's star chart, appeared on Huo Yuhao's left hand.
"Your Spirit Eye Martial Soul, as a symbol of life, governs the power of the sun and the stars in the Sun Palace; your Ice Martial Soul, as a symbol of change, governs the power of the stars in the Star Palace; and the Necromancer Saint Martial Soul that I have bestowed upon you will be a symbol of death, governing the power of the moon in the Moon Palace."
Listening to Electrolux's explanation, Huo Yuhao was immediately puzzled. "Teacher, what is Yi? I can understand the Spirit Eye that represents life and the Necromancer Saint God that represents death. But I don't really understand this Yi."
Electrolux did not give Huo Yuhao a direct answer. Instead, he used Huo Yuhao's mental power to conjure a singularity. The next instant, this point suddenly erupted, and countless clouds, dust, and colorful energy fluctuations instantly spread towards the boundless boundary.
Perhaps a long time, perhaps not long, the explosion finally gradually stabilized. Clouds and dust, dust and colorful energy, colorful energy and clouds, intertwined, collided, and gradually merged. Then, when the first star descended, its brilliant light and intense heat finally began to illuminate a corner of this universe.
Later, countless stars were born, and then the first planet with life appeared, until this planet had a companion star.
Sun and moon, moon and stars, stars and sun—the origin of life begins here.
Huo Yuhao suddenly remembered a line from the Tao Te Ching: "The Tao gives birth to One, One gives birth to Two, Two gives birth to Three, Three gives birth to all things."
He looked at Electrolux with a hint of understanding and asked softly, "Teacher, Yi is the ever-renewing force of creation, isn't it?"
Electrolux looked at him with satisfaction and nodded. "You understand quickly; no wonder you were chosen by this great power. Now that you understand, go back and study it carefully on your own. As for your future magic studies, I've placed them all within the Necromancer Saint God Martial Soul; you can experience them for yourself."
"If you have any questions, come back to me after a week."
Huo Yuhao bowed slightly to Electrolux, then waved to Tianmeng and Bingdi, finally emerging from his mental sea. Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Huo Yuhao thoughtfully raised his right hand. As he gently activated his soul power, a silver-gray death scythe emblem quietly appeared, emanating an extreme aura of death.
Huo Yuhao was so shocked that he immediately withdrew the emblem. Luckily, no one was in the dormitory, or he would have been in trouble.
