[Ding! You have turned Wicked-Tail Stingray, Herculean Great Octopus, and Oceanic Dragon-Eel into your Eternal Shadow Army]
Surrounded by three giant spirit beasts' shadows, Huo Yuhao stared at them indifferently and devised a new skill on the spot. Yes, he finally grasped the concept behind Severing Immortality.
Severing Immortality that Abyssal Reaper used at the final, most deciding moment. It's a forbidden technique that could cause irresistible 'true' death, even to immortal beings like Gods, Demons, and Buddhas.
The reason behind this is very straightforward. Severing Immortality is a sacrificial attack!
It sacrifices one's life to kill.
And trades one's soul for another.
The soul part is crucial because the Abyssal Reaper Class required mental power for some reason. At first, it puzzled Huo Yuhao because the Abyssal Reaper Class originated from the Assassin Class.
Then, Huo Yuhao's realization kicked in when developing the Hiding in the Abyss skill. Everything about the Abyssal Reaper screamed an unconventional debuffer than the traditional Assassin Class.
"Soul." Huo Yuhao glanced at the nearby Stingray Shadow Beast.
"So, that's how it is."
He smirked and stored the 100,000-year-old spirit beasts' corpses in his inventory. As for the red spirit rings, he put them inside Rune Stones and probably shared them with Zhang Lexuan or Ma Xiaotao.
He could give it to Xiao Xiao, but her body doesn't seem able to absorb the might of a 100,000-year-old spirit ring yet. Absorbing it without preparation will lead to negative results and worse death.
"Oh, spirit bones..." Huo Yuhao detected two glowing bones in the spirit beasts' corpses and laughed at his immense luck again.
Even though there is a very high chance for 100,000-year-old spirit beasts to form spirit bones, the drop rate is still low. Surprisingly, the Wicked-Tail Stingray and Oceanic Dragon-Eel formed left-arm and left-leg spirit bones.n0ve(l)bi(n.)co/m
Meanwhile, the Herculean Great Octopus doesn't form spirit bones as it doesn't have 'real' bones. This spirit beast developed immense physical strength and decently firm mental power to compensate for that flaw.
Unfortunately, it met Huo Yuhao today and met its demise.
After storing his loot, Huo Yuhao whistled and began to deactivate the Hidden in the Abyss skill. The thick, dark mist slowly thinned, revealing him walking to the speedboat.
"He's back! Yuhao is back!" Said Xiao Xiao excitedly.
Everyone stared at Huo Yuhao, who leisurely walked on the ocean's surface.
Some sighed in relief.
Some revered Huo Yuhao.
Only two people are staring at Huo Yuhao with complicated looks. They are Xuan Zi and Jian Bo.
"Elder Xuan, what did this lad do in the dark mist? He's showing more and more strength as we travel with him." Jian Bo couldn't help but ask.
"First, it was the Extraterrestrial Race, and now this."
Xuan Zi, who had deactivated his Martial Soul's transformation, chuckled and replied, "I don't know either. I was busily fighting with that annoying octopus and eel when he suddenly appeared behind me to take over."
"I couldn't sense anything because the dark mist repelled my sensing ability after that. But I did hear some weapon clashing noises and explosions."
"Why are you only greeting Yuhao? How unfair." Qianye Ying'er jokingly commented.
"Yes, yes." Scathach nodded, adding fuel to the fire.
Liu Mei coughed awkwardly and added, "Young Ladies, welcome to Java Island."
"The hotel and other preparations are ready."
"That's more like it." Scathach and Qianye Ying'er nodded in satisfaction.
'You two are bullying me!' Liu Mei lamented in her heart. She sighed and moved her gaze to the Shrek Academy's people.
"Shrek Academy, right?" Her tone is more professional and indifferent when addressing them.
Xuan Zi stepped forward and smiled politely, "Yes."
Liu Mei grabbed and tapped something on her tablet, causing several smartwatches to appear. She handed them to Xuan Zi and explained calmly, "This device will be your navigator on Java Island."
"It has built-in artificial intelligence that could help you with any possible difficulty. The Dragon Nest also has charged the smartwatches. It should have more than enough Contribution Points(Dragon Nest's currency) for the Continental Spirit Academy Tournament's contestants to last until the tournament ends."
"You can use those free Contribution Points on Java Island and enjoy the entertainment area, so spend it wisely."
"Everyone who wants to enter Java Island must wear it, or there will be consequences."
"Do you understand?" Liu Mei sternly questioned.
"Understood, ma'am!" Everyone from Shrek Academy responded immediately.
"Good. To activate the smartwatches, say 'GLuvH' to the screen." Liu Mei finished her explanation.
Everyone wore smartwatches carefully and said 'GLuvH' to the screen, which soon shocked them because the black screen lit up with a small holographic panel.
'GLuvH.' Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes.
'Aih, that mischievous girl.'
"Woah...." Amazed by the smartwatches, He Caituo and Luo Xin from the Spirit Guidance Department couldn't help but surf through the small holographic panel after reading all the introductions.
Well, it's not just them.
Everyone who entered Java Island for the Continental Spirit Academy Tournament would always have this kind of reaction.
Liu Mei clapped her hand to gain everyone's attention, "You can follow the instructions in the smartwatches to find your reserved hotels and rooms."
"Please pardon me. I have to bring Young Master and Young Ladies somewhere else."
After saying that, Liu Mei escorted Huo Yuhao, Scathach, and Qianye Ying'er away.
"Damn..." Every male in the dock enviously stared at Huo Yuhao's broad back. The treatment they got is simply like heaven and earth.
However, they also understood the difference between their status and Huo Yuhao's.
With the help of smartwatches, everyone quickly found their hotels and checked some information.
Not long after, a message entered their smartwatches.
