Chapter 233 Water and Fire in Harmony, Yin and Yang in Harmony
Originally spinning with the vortex of soul power, Xue Dan reacted as if she had been provoked after sensing the domineering aura of fire invading her territory.
An extreme cold current suddenly erupted, centered on Huo Yuhao. The temperature, which had risen sharply due to the appearance of the Fire Dragon King, suddenly dropped, and crystal-clear ice flowers condensed out of thin air, dancing and falling around his body.
Xue Di, who had been in a state of fusion with Huo Yuhao, was the first to react, her usually cold voice carrying a rare hint of anxiety.
"What exactly does the Fire Dragon King want? Why does he insist on stuffing the dragon egg directly into your body?!"
In this situation, Xue Dan's riot gave Xue Di a strong sense of déjà vu.
It was as if the snow pill she had condensed was destined to suffer this great torment.
"Yuhao, hold your breath, concentrate, and sit cross-legged."
Gu Yuena's ethereal voice rang in Huo Yuhao's ears, and she raised her hand to stop Qiu'er and Di Ruiqiu, who were anxiously trying to run to Huo Yuhao's side.
"The Fire Dragon King is willing to exhaust his last bit of divine soul to do this; it can't be without reason!"
The Dragon God glanced at Huo Yuhao's current state with his turbid dragon eyes and understood immediately, letting out another long sigh.
"They fought each other their whole lives. I never thought that even now, as they're about to leave this world, they'd still choose to fight one last time. Oh well."
Young friend, since they have all chosen you, then I, this old man, will lend you my assistance. I hope that in the future you will truly live up to their expectations and not let down the entire dragon race.
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly threw the ancient cane, which had been transformed from the Dragon Slayer Blade, into the air, where it transformed back into a ferocious longsword about ten feet long, its entire body gleaming with nine-colored light.
Accompanied by a clear, resonant hum, the nine-colored halo on the longsword grew even more intense.
The entire Dragon Valley began to tremble violently, and huge ravines spread out in all directions from the core basin, with the broken marks on the ground outlining dragon patterns.
The Dragon God leaped up and transformed back into a nine-colored giant dragon hidden in the void, its roar deafening.
"Electra, don't wait any longer, proceed according to our original plan."
I will raise the Dragon Pillar again and bestow all the energy contained within it upon my little friend, helping him complete the final step of this ice and fire tempering, while sending him back to his original destiny line!
"Then you shall completely merge that undead demiplane with this dragon tomb. Success or failure hinges on this moment; I urge you all to exert your utmost!"
Electrolux nodded, and an unprecedented solemnity appeared on his usually serene face.
He floated into the air, gently clenched his right hand towards the void, and countless brilliant golden light points gathered from all directions, gradually condensing into a slender and magnificent golden staff in his hand.
The moment the staff touched his hand, Electrox's entire demeanor changed drastically. An aura of holiness, nobility, and compassion for all living beings arose spontaneously within him.
One after another, incredibly profound ancient characters were slowly uttered from his mouth, giving people a sense of supreme grandeur.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao, who was sitting cross-legged, was enduring unimaginable pain, with fine beads of blood constantly seeping from his skin.
Strangely, the blood droplets that appeared on the left side of his body, with the midline as the dividing line, were instantly vaporized into blood mist by unimaginable high temperature as soon as they emerged.
The blood droplet that appeared on the right was frozen by the extreme cold in the blink of an eye, turning into tiny, dark red ice shards that fell down in a rustling sound.
The two completely opposite auras of extreme cold and extreme heat intertwined on his body, causing the void around him to become extremely distorted and chaotic, forming a terrifying and destructive domain.
This violent force, which erupted from his lower dantian and spread wildly throughout his limbs and bones, almost tore his body to pieces.
The internal organs and meridians within the body were constantly twisted, torn, and collapsed under the alternating impacts of ice and fire, but were rapidly repaired at an astonishing speed under the immense life force of the living metal.
The dragon core in his chest was also spinning wildly, condensing drops of pure golden liquid in an almost exhaustive manner, which flowed continuously into his blood vessels, barely maintaining the integrity of his body.
Qiu'er, who was not far away, felt a pang of heartache and could no longer bear it. She suddenly turned to Gu Yuena, her voice trembling with pleading.
"My lord, please let me pass. I can feel Yuhao calling me."
Gu Yuena instinctively wanted to respond, "In your current state, going there would not only be of no help, but you might also be affected by that violent power."
But seeing Qiu'er's resolute expression, all the words of persuasion stuck in his throat.
In the end, she could only sigh helplessly and wave her hand.
Having received tacit approval, Qiu'er rushed towards Huo Yuhao without hesitation.
As she drew closer, a brilliant golden light appeared on Huo Yuhao's forehead, followed by concentric circles of rose-colored sun patterns that radiated outwards from around his vertical pupils, creating a soft halo.
Gold, gold, black, and rose gold—four spirit rings flashed alternately on his body, their light unpredictable.
When Qiu'er braved the violent airflow and finally reached Huo Yuhao's side, her gaze instinctively fell on the rose-gold soul ring behind Huo Yuhao, which had lost its most essential core and whose light had dimmed.
The anxiety and worry on her face were instantly replaced by endless tenderness. She opened her arms and embraced the body that was enduring endless pain, whispering:
"Fool, didn't I tell you? Whether in this life or the next, I will always be by your side. Even the gods cannot separate our destinies."
As Qiu'er finished speaking, her exquisite body suddenly transformed into countless golden specks of light, continuously merging into Huo Yuhao's body.
A huge and majestic golden vertical pupil slowly emerged behind Huo Yuhao.
The once dull rose gold soul ring now shone with an unprecedented brilliance, like billions of stars converging at a single point.
A rich aura of destiny began to spread, temporarily suppressing the raging power of ice and fire.
At that very moment, the Dragon God's enormous, sky-covering claws once again emerged from the void, gripping the nine-colored Dragon-Slaying Blade tightly, and slashed fiercely down towards the Dragon Valley Basin below.
The world darkened, as if all the light had been swallowed up by this single strike.
"Boom!"
The earth ripped apart with a deafening roar, accompanied by countless dragon cries from within the basin, soaring straight into the sky.
An enormous, upside-down mountain, as if rising from the ground, burst forth from the huge gap cleaved open by the Dragon-Slaying Blade, and continued to rise with unstoppable force.
Soon, it reached a height of 10,000 meters, and its broad top surface seemed to be level with the sun, which was transformed from the radiant dragon king in the sky.
This inverted mountain peak is narrow at the bottom and wide at the top, barren of vegetation, and radiates a jade-like luster.
Its narrowest point has a diameter of one kilometer, while the platform at the very top is more than ten thousand meters wide. It stands abruptly in the present-day Dragon Tomb, like a white jade pillar supporting the heavens and the earth.
It seems that extracting the Dragon Pillar from the base of the Dragon Tomb required an immense amount of the Dragon God's energy.
His once dazzling nine-colored dragon scales had dimmed slightly, his entire dragon body had become somewhat ethereal, and his voice was filled with weariness.
"Young friend, according to the laws of the Douluo Continent, all beasts that perish will generate soul rings and soul bones. My remains contain the vast majority of my energy from my entire life."
Today, I will transform these remains into your very soul, enabling you to safely traverse the river of fate. However, you must still remember not to lose your initial direction in this river of destiny.
As the last word fell, the Dragon God's enormous claw slammed down on the massive flat surface at the top of the ascending dragon pillar.
"Click—"
A tiny crack appeared and then spread out like a spider web, with strands of dazzling nine-colored light emanating from the cracks, filled with a vast aura of creation and destruction.
Red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, black, and white—the nine elemental energies that roamed freely in the Dragon Tomb space surged forth like rivers flowing into the sea, eventually converging at the top of the Ascending Dragon Pillar into an increasingly dense cluster of nine-colored light.
Amidst the dazzling light, a strange dragon skeleton, over ten thousand meters tall and resembling a piece of nine-colored crystal, gradually revealed its complete outline.
The dragon god, now in human form, looked up at his remains, a complex and unfathomable look of reminiscence in his eyes.
But that emotion was fleeting; in the end, he simply waved his hand and said calmly:
Go!
In an instant, the nine-colored light at the top of the Dragon Pillar seemed to receive some kind of command, and suddenly burst forth with dazzling brilliance.
A massive crimson beam of light crashed down from a height of ten thousand meters, directly enveloping Huo Yuhao, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground.
Impacted by the scorching beam of light, Huo Yuhao's body jolted violently, his skin turning bright red in an instant, with even white steam rising from it.
Immediately afterwards, beams of energy in various colors—orange, yellow, green, and so on—descended from the sky one after another.
Each time a beam of light fell upon Huo Yuhao, the enormous dragon bone suspended in the nine-colored light would shrink noticeably by one degree, and its luster would dim accordingly.
When the last white beam of light fell, completely enveloping Huo Yuhao and forming a nine-colored cocoon of light, the dragon god's bones, which were ten thousand meters long, had also disappeared.
The sky above the Dragon Tomb suddenly cleared, revealing its original azure color.
Meanwhile, a tremendous change was taking place within Huo Yuhao's body.
As the nine-colored energy transformed from the remains of the Dragon God continued to merge, the dazzling nine-colored light rapidly spread through every meridian and bone in his limbs and bones.
In just a few breaths, Huo Yuhao's body had completely turned into nine colors, and his bones and meridians had a glass-like texture.
From the outside, Huo Yuhao was enveloped in a soft, nine-colored light, and his body was covered with dragon scales that shimmered with nine-colored light.
The Eye of Destiny, which had been hovering behind him, was now completely tinged with nine colors. However, deep within its enormous pupil shone a profound purple-gold light, its majesty almost tangible.
"Yuhao, what should we do now?"
Xue Di and Qiu Er's concerned voices rang out simultaneously in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea.
Huo Yuhao forcibly composed himself, pondered briefly, and, feeling the surging power of the Dragon God within his body, said in a deep voice:
"Snow Empress, you control the Snow Pill and make it rotate clockwise. Qiu'er, you control the dragon egg and make it rotate clockwise as well."
Leave the rest to me. I'll temporarily shield the soul power vortex while rotating it counter-clockwise!
Although Huo Yuhao didn't explain it too clearly, Xue Di and Qiu'er, who both had memories of their past lives, instantly understood his intentions.
Clearly, Huo Yuhao wanted to emulate the special "positive, negative, positive" structure he used when condensing his third soul core in his previous life.
This allows the Snow Pill, Dragon Egg, and Soul Power Vortex, which coexist in the lower dantian, to achieve a wondrous energy balance.
If it weren't for the immense energy transformed from the Dragon God's remains, continuously repairing his body, Huo Yuhao would never have dared to attempt such a dangerous method of condensation in his lower dantian alone.
However, this form of yin and yang complementing each other and the three forces balancing each other is clearly the best way to resolve the current conflict between ice and fire.
Perhaps the Fire Dragon King saw this, which is why he chose to integrate the dragon egg, which had undergone bloodline sublimation, into his body.
Time was of the essence, so I didn't say anything more.
As Huo Yuhao relinquished control over Xue Dan and the dragon egg, handing over control to Xue Di and Qiu'er respectively.
Under the surge of powerful spiritual energy, the surging dragon god power within his body was like a turbulent sea wave, firmly enveloping the originally constantly rotating vortex of soul power.
For a moment, the entire soul power vortex was temporarily disconnected from Huo Yuhao's body.
Seeing this, Xue Dan and the dragon egg, which were originally on the same rotating trajectory as the soul power vortex, immediately detached from their original positions under the separate control and guidance of Xue Di and Qiu Er.
Snow Pill slowly rose to the top of the soul power vortex, while the dragon egg slowly sank to the bottom.
The two, one above the other, subtly create a state of harmony between water and fire, yin and yang.
As Huo Yuhao slowly withdrew the Dragon God's power that enveloped the vortex of soul power, the powerful rotational force that had been suppressed for a moment suddenly reappeared, and the soul power within his body was being consumed at an unprecedented speed.
Snow Pill and Dragon Egg were stirred up as the vortex of soul power began to rotate again.
But this time, their rotation direction was completely opposite to that of the soul power vortex.
Blue on top and red on the bottom, one exuding an extreme icy blue, the other burning with fiery red gold.
Extreme cold and extreme heat, under the enormous pulling force generated by their counter-rotation, suddenly converge at the center of the vortex!
boom--
Like the Big Bang at the beginning of the universe, Huo Yuhao's vision was instantly filled with an indescribable white light, and his consciousness went completely blank at that moment.
Suddenly, a distant and grand sound of bells and drums rang in his ears, and his internal organs throbbed violently with the rhythm of the sound, his blood boiling as if it were about to burst out of his body.
