Chapter 150 The Soul Hunt Continues
As this force was inputted, the metal hand bones emitted a soft cracking sound, seemingly unable to withstand this enormous power.
Upon hearing this voice, everyone's hearts sank to the bottom.
It should be noted that at this moment, most of the power of the Dark Gold Terror Claw was still in Xiao Xiao's right palm and had not been transferred in time.
Under the anxious gaze of the three, the cracking sound from the metal hand gradually increased, and visible deformation gradually appeared.
However, it is precisely in this situation that the advantages of the core magic array are well demonstrated.
Even if some of the patterns have cracked, as long as it can continue to resonate with the laws, it can continue to operate even if its efficiency is reduced.
As the power of the Dark Gold Terror Claw's right metacarpal bone gradually flowed into the metal hand, Xiao Xiao's pain rapidly subsided, and her swollen right arm began to return to normal.
The cracking sounds coming from the metal hand grew louder and louder. San Tian stared intently at the metal hand bone, praying that it could hold on for even a little longer...
Finally, all the power of the Dark Gold Terror Claws left Xiao Xiao's right palm. Xiao Xiao let out a soft groan. Having finally escaped the pressure, Xiao Xiao could no longer hold on and fainted in Xuan Lao's arms.
Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao, whose face was pale, swayed and forced himself to enter a meditative state.
Although Electrolux was in charge, the high-intensity inscription still managed to drain Huo Yuhao's mental energy. Moreover, the high-intensity inscription made Huo Yuhao's body feel as if it had undergone an extremely intense training.
Even now, sitting cross-legged, Huo Yuhao's right hand was still twitching unconsciously from time to time, clearly indicating that he had a cramp.
As for the carving knife?
Such intense carving turned to dust the instant it lost the protection of soul power...
"What's going on here?!"
Looking at the two who had both disconnected, Elder Xuan couldn't help but give a wry smile.
Despite all the precautions, an accident still occurred.
Looking at the "culprit," Elder Xuan sensed that the terrifying power within was still growing, and he took action to isolate the dark gold claw along with the metal hand bone.
Fortunately, the metal hand bones did not need to be sealed. The rampaging Dark Gold Terror Claws were allowed to wreak havoc, and Elder Xuan only needed to consider isolating the Dark Gold Terror Claws from external interference.
Even if the Dark Gold Terrorclaw self-destructed, Elder Xuan could completely suppress the explosive force with his immense power.
Fortunately, the soul bone did not self-destruct.
Seemingly having discovered that its new owner was a fake, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw went on a rampage for quite some time.
However, due to the lack of direct contact with soul power, the soul bone is ultimately an inanimate object. It can only absorb the metal hand bone in a helpless and furious manner to strengthen itself, and eventually return to the shape of a hand bone and return to peace.
Seeing this, Wang Dong and Elder Xuan breathed a deep sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the soul bone is still intact. If it were destroyed as a result, it would be a double loss.
With his free hand, Xuan Lao examined Xiao Xiao's body. His brows furrowed tightly. Due to the rampant power of the Dark Gold Terror Claw, Xiao Xiao's right hand was now riddled with holes. Even if he returned to Shrek Academy, it would take a lot of effort to recover.
Two hours later, Xiao Xiao had already woken up. On the other hand, Huo Yuhao was exhausted both physically and mentally, and it took him three hours of meditation to wake up.
Looking at the unharmed Xiao Xiao and the Dark Gold Terror Claw, Huo Yuhao let out a deep breath.
Huo Yuhao was afraid that his interference would cause problems for either Xiao Xiao or the Dark Gold Terror Claw, so he thought it would be better to just let the story unfold as it was originally written.
However, having failed to absorb the Life Gold and the Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone, Huo Yuhao was unsure whether he could absorb the Dark Gold Terror Claw without revealing his second martial soul.
Although his physical abilities were much stronger than in the original story, and he could barely absorb weaker ten-thousand-year soul rings, Huo Yuhao was still unsure of himself when facing the Dark Gold Terror Claw, which Huo Yuhao had to go through all sorts of trouble to barely absorb in the original story.
"Yuhao, how are you?"
Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao, who had regained consciousness, rushed to his side at the same time, both looking at him with concern. Xiao Xiao was filled with gratitude.
If Huo Yuhao hadn't come up with a quick thinking plan, Xiao Xiao might have really lost her right hand.
Even if a top-tier healing soul master could regenerate broken bones, Xiao Xiao still didn't want to experience the pain of losing an arm.
Huo Yuhao patted his chest and said, "What could possibly happen to me? I just forcibly inscribed a core magic array beyond my capabilities, which slightly overtaxed me. But this little bit of overtaxation is nothing to me!"
Hearing this, Xiao Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. If Huo Yuhao had gotten into trouble because of her, Xiao Xiao would have blamed herself for the rest of her life.
After a day of rest, Xiao Xiao and Huo Yuhao were full of energy again and continued their soul-hunting journey.
As the engineer who saved Xiao Xiao, Huo Yuhao ultimately entrusted the Dark Gold Terror Claw to his safekeeping.
In fact, both Xiao Xiao and Elder Xuan intended for Huo Yuhao to absorb the soul bone after his strength had grown. However, Huo Yuhao only agreed to keep it for the time being and did not intend to absorb it.
After all, before Huo Yuhao grew up, he couldn't absorb the Dark Gold Terror Claw after it matured, and after he matured, he didn't care about the Dark Gold Terror Claw's output.
While traveling, Xiao Xiao also demonstrated her third soul skill to Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao.
The third soul skill of the Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron, the skill of the thousand-year soul ring—the Might of the Cauldron—can greatly increase the defensive power of the Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron, at least three times that of before. Moreover, if the Might of the Cauldron is used first and then the other two soul skills are used, the power will also be multiplied.
It's just like the triple boost from the Evil-Eyed White Tiger.
However, the Soul Suppression Power, which has the greatest potential for Xiao Xiao's growth, did not improve much. It seemed to increase the power of the first and second Soul Skills, but in reality, it was all supported by the quality of the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear Soul Ring. Otherwise, how could the defense be increased three times, but the power of the Soul Skills only doubled?
The difference in value comes from the compatibility; it is estimated that the improvement brought by Xiao Xiao's later soul skills, such as the power of the cauldron, may not even reach 100%.
However, the Cauldron's Might has undoubtedly done a great job in improving Xiao Xiao's current combat power. It can be considered a god-tier skill in the early stages but a useless skill in the later stages.
However, the problem that Xiao Xiao needed to solve most right now—the insufficient defensive power of the Soul-Suppressing Cauldron in the Three Lives state—has been resolved.
The distance of several dozen miles was covered in the blink of an eye. Huo Yuhao was still in front, with Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao following behind. After entering the Star Dou Great Forest again, the three of them felt quite familiar with the place.
Huo Yuhao activated his shared mental detection, and the three of them moved much faster than when they first entered the Star Dou Great Forest. In less than half an hour, they had penetrated into a ten-mile radius and began searching for a suitable soul beast for Huo Yuhao's improvement.
Although Huo Yuhao knew that finding a suitable spirit-type soul beast wouldn't be easy, he hadn't expected it to be this difficult. For the next ten days, they circled almost half of the Star Dou Great Forest, within a radius of about ten miles from its entrance, yet still couldn't find a suitable one.
We did encounter some spirit-type spirit beasts, but they were either extremely weak or lacked sufficient years of cultivation. We couldn't very well try to fuse with spirit rings that were ten or a hundred years old.
However, Huo Yuhao wasn't in a hurry, because he knew that the guaranteed minimum was coming soon, and it was the kind that could set the course.
I suddenly realized there was a problem with the arrangement for Tang Ya. Tang Ya's storyline should have been written earlier. I remembered wrong and mistakenly thought Tang Ya hadn't left yet. The timeline is wrong (╥_╥).
