First Volume: Heaven's Dream Silkworm Chapter 36: Awakening of Ashen Color! (End)

  In the midst of loud laughter, the grayness in the spiritual sea receded like a tide, and everything around returned to normal in an instant. The gray pearl also remained in its original position.

  "With the sun and moon in hand, plucking stars from the sky, there is no one else like me in this world." Huo Yuhao savored these words that were full of overbearing pride yet tinged with a hint of sorrow. For a moment, he couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

  "Bastard, bastard! This old man actually dares to ignore me and scold me. I'm going to kill him, I'm going to kill him."

  Huo Yu Hao was startled awake by its voice and said somewhat helplessly: "Tian Meng Ge, calm down. That old man seems to have no malicious intent."

  "What's the meaning of 'no malice'? Didn't you hear him say he wants to pinch me to death? No way, Yu Hao, you must quickly enhance your strength. He is a parasite in your spiritual sea, and only you can use your spiritual power to eliminate him. However, his divine consciousness level is very high, but due to the parasitic nature, he cannot harm you. When your divine consciousness reaches his level, you will be able to easily get rid of him."

  Huo Yu Hao said somewhat helplessly, "Tian Meng Ge, you also said that his spiritual level is very high. Then do you think I need to cultivate for how long before my spiritual level can reach his?"

  "This... I'll think about it." Tian Meng Bing Xian fell silent.

  Huo Yu Hao was now more curious, with a wise soul ring Tian Meng Bing Can already making him different from others. Unexpectedly, when merging with Tian Meng Bing Can, he had absorbed this wisp of divine consciousness. This was his spiritual sea, although his abilities were far inferior to those of Tian Meng Bing Can and the old man who lived here. However, he could truly feel everything that happened here. When the old man spoke to him with a heavy heart, he could feel the old man's deep and sincere emotions. Indeed, there was no intention to harm him at all. Moreover, this wisp of divine consciousness was very weak, even weaker than his own spiritual power.

  But was he really weak? Huo Yuhao couldn't help but recall everything that had just happened. It was this gray spiritual power that temporarily controlled his soul power, launched the final blow at Wu Feng, and also a spiritual impact. Under the control of this gray spiritual power, it actually condensed its own spiritual power into a hair-like thickness, piercing through Wu Feng's layered defense. In the end, he defeated the enemy, but did not truly harm Wu Feng. This control, was it something he could compare to?

  If he could also possess this ability to control spiritual power, then the might of these spiritual soul techniques would at least be elevated to the level after his and Wang Dong's soul fusion, or even surpass it!

  This is the real control. But how can this controlling power be enhanced? How can it be achieved?

  "Ah..." Tian Meng Bing Xian let out a long sigh, "Based on your current cultivation speed, I've calculated that even with my full assistance, it would still take you approximately three thousand years to catch up to him in terms of spiritual realm."

  "What?" Huo Yu Hao had already highly estimated that unknown old man. But when he said he wasn't as good as the old man earlier, it was mostly just to placate Tian Meng Bing Xue. He hadn't expected that Tian Meng, who was extremely resentful of the old man, would give him such an answer. It didn't match up with what the old man had said. Definitely wouldn't be a lie!

  "He's really helpless, saying: 'Otherwise, you think he's just a wisp of divine consciousness, why should I be completely powerless against him? This old guy doesn't know where he came from. His level of divine consciousness is much higher than mine. His power is so weak, but the level of his divine consciousness seems to have reached an extent that I can't understand. It's as if it has transcended the category of humans and all living things on the continent. Damn, it looks like we really can't do anything to him! The only thing is, after his divine consciousness is repaired, will he have direct combat ability? Probably not. His divine consciousness is so weak, even if it's repaired, it's still just this wisp of divine consciousness, and not his entire being.'"

  "What... what would this old gentleman's strength be like if his divine consciousness hadn't shattered?"

  "At least it's to an extent you can't imagine now."

  He Yu Hao said: "Tian Meng brother, since this old man has no malice, we can't do anything to him either. Then let's all get along peacefully from now on."

  "Hmph!" Tian Meng Bing Xian snorted in anger, clearly unwilling to accept the situation.

  ……

  "You're wrong, the true body of Wu Soul has not undergone a second awakening." Xuan Lao withdrew his greasy hand from He Yu's chest.

  Wang Yan said doubtfully, "Impossible. If it's not the second awakening of his original martial soul, why would his spiritual eye turn gray? Moreover, at that time I clearly felt that his aura was different! And he even defeated a two-ring strong assault system Soul Master. Xuan Lao, let's wait until he wakes up and try again?"

  After sending Wu Feng for treatment and confirming that everything was fine, Wang Yan announced an early dismissal. He then went to the inner courtyard again to find Xuan Lao and told him about the possibility of Huo Yuhao's Body Soul second awakening.

  This time, Xuan Lao was also shocked. The advantage of his original martial soul over other martial souls included this second awakening. Any original martial soul that could undergo a second awakening was definitely a top-notch original martial soul existence. The level of the martial soul would immediately rise to another level. So, he hastily followed Wang Yan to Ho Yu Hao and Wang Dong's dormitory to investigate Ho Yu Hao's physical condition.

  Xuan Lao said somewhat impatiently, "No need to try anymore. Little Wang, I know you've been studying the true body of Wu Xun, but you can't even grasp the basics. If the true body of Wu Xun were to awaken a second time, what would happen? He hasn't even reached the most basic level. His soul power is still at level 17, without any change. If it really was a second awakening, his soul power should have surged to at least level 20. This child has some talent, but he's already quite old; before the age of 12, it's completely impossible for him to reach level 30. He's still far from the best batch. From now on, don't waste my time on him again." After finishing speaking, he picked up his wine gourd and took a swig before turning around and leaving.

  Wang Yan's face fell in disappointment, and he reminded Wang Dong to take good care of Huo Yu Hao before following him out.

  When Huo Yuhao woke up from his coma, it was already deep into the night. The pain on his body had mostly dissipated, and Wang Yan had brought some healing medicine when he came to visit with Elder Xuan. Although his injuries were not light, they did not affect his bones or internal organs. With the good medicine from Shrek Academy, there shouldn't be any major issues anymore.

  It feels so soft and warm. Huo Yu Hao was surprised to find himself lying on Wang Dong's bed, while Wang Dong was sleeping soundly at the edge of the bed.

  Although this was not He Yu Hao's first time on Wang Dong's bed, it was his first time lying here.

  Deeply moved, it spread throughout Ho Yu Hao's body in the depths of this night. He knew Wang Dong's cleanliness too well. In the past, even if he was on his bed for a moment, it wouldn't be allowed. But today, he let himself lie on his bed. Even after the soul fight, with dust all over his body.

  He quietly got out of bed, and carefully picked up Wang Dong, placing him on the bed. He turned his head to look at his own flatbed, which didn't even have a mattress. He gently placed Wang Dong on the sheepskin mattress, pushed him in a bit, then lay down beside him.

  Two people sleeping in a single bed is a bit cramped, but after all they are still kids and not as fat as Evil Moon, so it's barely manageable.

  Huo Yuhao pulled the quilt over, covering himself and Wang Dong well. With a warmth in his heart, he fell asleep once again. It had been a very long time since he had slept so relaxedly, rather than cultivating or meditating. The various emotions from the day were completely released at this moment.

  Early morning. The sky outside the window is gradually changing from dark blue to bright blue.

  Wang Dong slowly woke up from his sleep, with his eyes closed, his consciousness recovered first. Ah, it's so comfortable! This sleep was really beautiful.

  Every day, I'm dragged by He Yu Hao to cultivate, it's been ages since I've slept so comfortably. Warm and cozy, hugging a big pillow, sleeping is really great, this pillow is still warm. Not bad, not bad.

  King Dong's eyes, filled with satisfaction, were about to fall asleep again when his consciousness fluctuated and he suddenly remembered something.

  This is wrong! Huo Yu Hao was injured yesterday, I should be taking care of him! How can he sleep so comfortably?

  As soon as he thought of the injured Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong immediately woke up from his sleep and opened his eyes.

  The first thing he saw was a profile, because of the sound sleep, in the morning light, the face could be seen with a faint healthy pink. Thick breath was slowly emanating from his body.

  Wang Dong was completely stunned. He found that his head was resting on the shoulder of the person with the profile, and his arm was draped over the other's chest, holding tightly. One of his legs was also draped over the other person's leg, and he had even hooked his foot around the outside of their thigh, as if afraid of falling off.

  Is this a human-shaped dakimakura?

  Ready, three, two, one...

  "Ah——" A piercing scream suddenly spread throughout the first-year dormitory building.

  The scream was really too high in decibels, and even though the dormitory had good sound insulation, it instantly woke up a large number of first-year students who were either cultivating or sleeping.

  "Oh no! I'm going to die!"

  In his sleep, he was always the least guarded, and Huo Yu Hao was no exception. He slept very soundly, only feeling a slightly cool, soft "pillow" that was always attached to him, emitting a fresh breath. Plus the soft and thick fur mattress, it was a very solid sleep. Normally at this time, he would have already gotten up to practice his Zi Ji Mo Tong. But today, he slept exceptionally soundly.

  The reaction of holding a pillow seems not so good...... Cough cough. Hurry up and vote, what are you waiting for?
