Volume 16, Chapter 140.2: There Has To Be an End in a Life
Elder Xuan furrowed his brows and said in a somber tone, The Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bears Right Palm Bone contains too much domineering strength; Xiao Xiao cant bear the current pressure its exerting. Shes experiencing soul bone backlash.
What can we do? Huo Yuhao asked anxiously. He could see that Xiao Xiaos arm had swollen up like a balloon, and that her shirt was just moments away from ripping.
Elder Xuan bitterly replied, If this continues, Im afraid that her arm will
What?! Wang Dong exclaimed. Elder Xuan, is there nothing we can do? The soul bone cant even be suppressed with your soul power?
Elder Xuan shook his head and said, No. If I try to forcefully suppress it, her arm will burst. Shell only lose her arm faster if I do that. If I didnt already have a right arm soul bone, I could try to guide the soul bone out, but since I do I cant.
Xiao Xiao looked extremely pale, and the pain from her right arm made her body spasm violently. Without Elder Xuans seal, the power of the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bears soul bone wouldve spread its backlash to her entire body, which would leave her life in danger.
Elder Xuan, let me do it. Huo Yuhao said decisively.
Even though he immediately made this decision, you could tell how resolved he was from his tone .
Aside from Xiao Xiao, he was the only one left in the group without a right arm soul bone. Meaning he was the only outlet this frightening power could be siphoned to. Not only that, but he couldnt watch as Xiao Xiao was in danger of losing her right arm.
You? Elder Xuan was slightly shocked and said, Yuhao, your cultivation isnt even at Rank 30 yet. If Xiao Xiao cant bear it, I dont think you can Moreover, the soul bones power had been fully unleashed now, and it was far more brutal than before.
Huo Yuhao laughed bitterly and replied,Elder Xuan, believe in me. I hold at least 70% confidence in myself to do it. Elder Mu must have told you what has happened to me so far, and my body is extremely strong. While Xiao Xiao did get a chance to practice our Tang Sects Mysterious Jade Hands, she did so long after me. Her mastery of the Mysterious Jade Hands is inferior to my own. Furthermore, my second martial souls Ice Empress Pincer increases my palm strength even further. I should be able to bear it better than her.
Elder Xuan took in a deep breath, and his eyes sparkled as he looked at Huo Yuhao. Kid, I wont waste anymore time. If you get hurt because of this, I will help you recover, even if it costs me my life.
Wang Dong didnt try to talk Huo Yuhao out of it, but he tugged at his shirt from behind.
They were friends, even close to seeming like relatives, Huo Yuhao was undoubtedly the closest person to Wang Dong at Shrek Academy. He wasnt willing to see Huo Yuhao take this risk.
Huo Yuhao didnt seem to understand Wang Dongs intention. As he stepped forward, he shook his left hand behind his back slightly and removed Wang Dongs grip on his shirt, while his right hand also grabbed onto Xiao Xiaos right hand firmly.
Huo Yuhaos body jerked as their hands contacted. He didnt feel a scorching heat at first, but instead a wave of hysterical will that instantly surged from Xiao Xiaos right palm into his body.
However, he wasnt afraid to compete against the thousand year Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear in terms of spiritual power and will, even if it was still alive.
Elder Xuan said in a deep voice, Im about to start.
Okay. Huo Yuhaos reply was very short. He adjusted his breathing, and readied himself.
He was a little stunned that, while the Skydream Iceworm and Ice Empress were awake, they didnt try to stop him. They didnt even warn him, as if they were completely ignorant of current events.
An intense undulation of soul power circulated around his entire body rapidly, as the Mysterious Heaven Technique was focused on his right arm.
Elder Xuan unleashed his pure power to suppress the Darkgolden Terrorclaws tyrannical strength. Without Huo Yuhao being there, this power would be used to support Xiao Xiaos arm and delay it reaching the limit of what it could bear. But instead it forced the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bears strength into Huo Yuhaos right arm.
Once it entered Huo Yuhaos right arm, he immediately understood the pain that Xiao Xiao was experiencing.
The burning power surged maniacally. Like a raging inferno had transformed into countless tiny blades furiously cutting at his palm. This tyrannical strength caused Huo Yuhao to tremble, but he quickly stabilized himself.
He couldnt bother to think of the consequences earlier. He found it clear that even if he and Xiao Xiao couldnt take it, Elder Xuan was still around. At most his right palm would be crippled, but Xiao Xiao would have her entire right arm crippled. He balanced the repercussions for the both of them. As her team leader and friend, he didnt hesitate to help Xiao Xiao resolve this problem, when he was the only one that could.
He was also confident in himself. He was convinced that the power of the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear soul bone couldnt be compared to the Ice Jade Empress Scorpions soul bone, even after it was sealed. After experiencing such frightful pain once, what was a measly Darkgolden Terrorclaw soul bone to him? Besides, even if he really couldnt take it, the Ice Empress would help him. This was why he was so confident.
It turned out that Huo Yuhaos previous conjectures were absolutely right. His Mysterious Jade Hands proved far more effective than Xiao Xiaos. When the strength of the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear came into his right palm, his right arm emitted a faint glow, resembling a gem. This glow suppressed the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bears power in his palm, and kept it from spreading further.
Huo Yuhao also switched his martial soul to the Ice Jade Empress Scorpion. His soul bones also emitted a turquoise radiance. The radiance was so intense that it penetrated outwards from inside his body, and became visible on the outside from beneath his skin.
The aura assaulting him came from a Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear, which, while they are very powerful, they arent up to the standards of the Ice Jade Scorpions. Let alone the Ice Jade Empress Scorpion that Huo Yuhao possessed. Its aura would not lose out to a simple Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bears. Huo Yuhao also activated his first soul skill, the Ice Empress Pincer, without any delay.
Xiao Xiao was completely unprepared for the auras assault, and she didnt have any soul skills to strengthen her palms. Huo Yuhao on the other hand, had such a skill at his disposal. Upon activating the Ice Empress Pincer, Huo Yuhao could feel an immediate effect on the pressure facing him. So even though his palm was still feeling the full force of the pain, it was solely in his palm, and didnt spread past his wrists. As the dark golden radiance shone, a diamond radiance that belonged to his Ice Empress Pincer appeared.
The diamond radiance was colorless and transparent. Under the Darkgolden Terrorclaws radiance, Huo Yuhaos entire palm shone with intense light.
Elder Xuan was very sharp, and his eyes brightened. He thought to himself that there was hope!
