Chapter 35: Chapter 35: Martial Soul Fusion



Huo Yuhao stared.

Wang Dong stared back, his face gaining a pinkish flush.

Huo Yuhao slowly backed away.

"Oi! Why are you backing away?!" Wang Dong angrily said as he saw Huo Yuhao's action.

Huo Yuhao furiously retorted, "That's because you're being all weird about it!"

"Wha–!? No I'm not!"

"Yes, you are! I already said this Wang Dong, but I'm straight. My dong only goes hard for the ones with a gap between their legs."

Wang Dong's face went red in anger and embarassment, lightly stomping towards Huo Yuhao, he didn't hesitate to throw a punch but the latter easily evaded it.

"Dude! Stop being so gross!!"

"Not until you stop being so fricking weird!"

Now, you might be wondering on how this happened and why these two were being all weird to each other.

Well, let's go back to a few minutes ago.

After they had their celebratory dinner made by Huo Yuhao, the trio then headed off towards their respective dormitory.

And whilst they entered their room, Wang Dong started talking about how great and amazing about the Lan sisters' martial soul fusion skill and wondered how great it would've been if they also had such a powerful skill.

Huo Yuhao then replied, "Eh, why don't we try it?"

Martial soul fusion skill is a highly rare skill between Soul Masters; the possibility of it happening is so slim that not even a single one will appear among thousands. If and when two people's martial souls are highly compatible, there will be a reaction between both parties.

Huo Yuhao was joking around when he said that, after all, they've been rommies for three whole months now and there haven't been much feelings of compatibility between. Instead, initially, they disliked each other.

So imagine his surprise when he heard not only Wang Dong say that he has compatibility with him, Ancestor came out and said that he had compatibility with the former as well.

'What?! Why didn't you tell me about this sooner?'

"I didn't know about the existence of a martial soul fusion skill until now." Ancestor calmly said.

So, wanting to satisfy their curiousity, they decided to try it and the only method they know to do so was hugging each other.

Which, wasn't that much of a big deal between friends...

But then Wang Dong started blushing and so obviously, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but feel awkward.

'Ah, screw this. I want to see what this whole fusion skill business is.' Tossing aside his feelings of awkwardness, he spread his arms out and went in for the hug.

"Alright, be a good child and come to daddy!"

"Ah!"

Not expecting Huo Yuhao to suddenly hug him like that, Wang Dong's body tensed up and unconsciously let out a high-pitched yelp. He quickly shut his lips tight, his eyes darting around, panicking.

'Hm?' Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes, as if he felt something was wrong but shrugged it off a moment later and said. "Alright. I'm hugging you, what now?"

'Thank the Sea God that he's an idiot.' Wang Dong inwardly let out a sigh and mutteringly replied, "First, feel fhe aura of my martial soul and I'll do the same."

"Ah, alright." Huo Yuhao nodded, rousing his soul power, he released the aura of his martial soul while simultaneously feeling out Wang Dong's martial soul aura.

In Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea, which changed to resemble the grand lake in the core area of Great Star Dou Forest, Ancestor stood floating in the middle of the lake, looking up, with his hands crossed behind him.

"What's up with you?" Skydream asked, lazily floating towards him.

"... I'm a bit curious about this martial soul fusion skill my incarnation and that faker is doing."

"Ah, are you worried that something would go wrong or something? Relax." Skydream's body wiggled. "As long as I'm here, there's nothing that could go wrong."

"That's the thing I'm worried about."

"Huh?"

Ancestor lowered his head, though faceless, Skydream could somewhat tell that he was giving him a serious look. "I haven't told you and my incarnation the true potential of the Sharingan. And it involves my brother, Ahsura."

"...And why would it involve your brother? In fact, why are you mentioning him right now?" Skydream hesitantly asked, feeling the tense air.

"That's because I'm feeling the same aura of blood coming from the faker–Wang Dong."

Skydream's eyes widened. "Wait, what?! Are you saying that Wang Dong is a descendant of your brother?"

Ancestor shook his head and calmly said, "He isn't, nor can he be a descendant of my brother. The bloodline aura just feels similar. And no, Wang Dong can't possibly be my brother's incarnation either. I would've instantly sensed him if she was."

"Hah? Then what are you being so worried about then if Wang Dong only has a similar vibe of bloodline to your brother's?!"

Ancestor went silent.

He then looked up, his gaze entering the physical realm and spied on the kids.

"The eyes of Indra and the blood similar to Ashura. Will this union be enough to bring upon the eyes of Samsara?"

"Samsara..." Skydream's eyes widened. Although he doesn't know what that means, but if the word Samsara was involved then if this martial soul fusion went successful then it might be something amazing!

Huo Yuhao slowly gathered his soul power while conscientiously perceiving Wang Dong's aura, gradually, he felt the undulations of Wang Dong's aura; it was a strong, radiant aura that felt comfortably warm. As it stimulated his soul power to slowly circulate around Wang Dong's body, it caused an indescribably comfortable feeling. What made him even more astonished was the fact that an even stronger aura of life had gradually appeared in the midst of the radiant aura.

Wang Dong's aura unexpectedly transformed three times in a row, but every change made him feel even more intimate with Wang Dong. When he felt the final transformation in Wang Dong's aura, his soul power surprisingly started to circulate along the circulation paths of the Mysterious Heaven Technique.

'Damn, this feels good.' Huo Yuhao inwardly thought as he felt Wang Dong's aura.

Wang Dong was similarly astonished. After Huo Yuhao hugged him, a golden stream slowly appeared on the surface of his skin. Then, it slowly turned a bluish-gold colour before turning dark-gold.

The colour of the light changed three times; this was also a strange undulation that Huo Yuhao felt after his aura transformed.

Huo Yuhao silently sensed the aura on Wang Dong's body, while Wang Dong observed everything on Huo Yuhao's body.

He discovered that a light had started to appear on Huo Yuhao's body. First, it was a dim, red stream that was soft and profound, and even had a diverse feeling to it. When his aura came into contact with this red aura, an indescribable sense of reluctance appeared. Huo Yuhao's aura seemed to be arrogant, only tolerating his aura, but it had still harmonized perfectly with his own aura.

Following that, the aura on Huo Yuhao's body began to transform. His soft and profound aura gradually turned chilly, a faint chilliness appeared on his body. However, that chilliness also felt as if it were filled with an endless amount of life; it merged perfectly with the aura of life on Wang Dong's body. Although one was an aura of life was one that belonged to the natural world, while the other was an inexhaustible amount of life that came from the desolate cold of ancient times, the endless undulations of life that they shared allowed the two auras to combine with each other, further harmonizing them.

When the stream surrounding Wang Dong's body finally turned dark-gold, the aura on Huo Yuhao's body changed from an icy-blue colour to an grim grey one.

This grey was very, very dull. However, to Wang Dong's astonishment, the profundity and stability that came from the stream of grey surpassed even the dark-gold on his body.

The three different auras varied unceasingly, while the soul power in their bodies started to circulate. Furthermore, the circulation speed of their soul power became increasingly faster as time passed.

At this moment, the two didn't understand what this state truly meant to them, but they took advantage of the opportunity that had presented itself and calmly hugged each other, silently perceiving this wonderful and increasingly relaxing feeling.

Regardless of whether it was Huo Yuhao or Wang Dong, the two of them felt as if the other party had merged into their body; as if they had become one.

"What the heck?! There's no way your luck is this good." Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded out, startling Huo Yuhao.

"Brother Skydream?" Huo Yuhao muttered, thankfully Wang Dong was deeply immersed in his embrace to notice.

After a brief moment, its voice rang out in Huo Yuhao's mind again, "From now on, follow my instructions. I'd never have thought that you'd actually be able to find someone who's completely compatible with your aura. This Brother really can't understand it. No, this is practically impossible!"

"However, you've done it. This, to you, is something extremely fortunate. You have to grab this chance; it'll give you two endless prospects in the future."

'So, does this mean we can do a martial soul fusion skill?' Huo Yuhao asked.

"Duh! You have to know there are different levels of martial soul fusions. Generally, the possibility of a fusion only exists if your compatibility exceeds fifty percent. However, the compatibility between you two is a hundred percent! Not even most married couples have that kind of compatibility..."

'Married couple...?' Huo Yuhao suddenly felt sick and wanted release Wang Dong from his arms.

"Don't you fucking let go!" However, Skydream's voice rang out in Huo Yuhao's mind again, firm and commanding. "You're in the midst of a fusion, idiot! Don't ruin it! Just hold on tightly and follow my instructions!"

Huo Yuhao gulped, feeling a little uncomfortable with the situation, but he trusted Skydream's knowledge and experience.

".... Unbelievable. Not only do you have a hundred percent compatibility with each, but this Brother is even more astonished by the fact that you two actually have three martial souls that are fusing with each other. This isn't just some miracle, it's a fucking supernatural phenomenon!"

Huo Yuhao's eyes widened in shock. Three martial souls fusing together? This was unprecedented, even in the history of soul masters. It was a level of compatibility that had never been seen before.

Also, when did he have three martial souls? Hell, Wang Dong had three as well?!

"Remember that glowing grey ball elder that's always mooching besides one of my golden seals? I don't how, but the guy had somehow became your third martial soul." There was bitter tone in Skydream's voice as he explained. "As for your little friend here, remember, everybody has their secrets."

Skydream continued, "I don't know what will happen once the fusion is complete, but one thing is for sure - your strength will increase exponentially. You two will become a force to be reckoned with in the world of soul masters."

Huo Yuhao's heart skipped a beat and eagerly asked, "Brother Skydream, what should we do next?"

"Hmph. Don't worry your little human brain, your great Brother here will take care of everything and let you take the initiative when you two undergo martial soul fusion. Relax your body and allow me to do everything."

Huo Yuhao nodded, as he trusted Skydream Iceworm.

Suddenly, the colour of Huo Yuhao's pupil quietly turned a faintly ice-blue color.

The Skydream Iceworm only poured a trace of its strength into Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea; it didn't control his body. He only guided Huo Yuhao's aura, causing it to start producing various transformations.

"Hehe. Just watch as this great Brother of yours make good work. There's also a distinction between the main user and the secondary user during a martial soul fusion, so let's take the dominant position and take a few advantages. Huh? This fella called Wang Dong is actually... No wonder your Ancestor said those things about he–him."

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

"Nothing, nothing. Since that's the case, I'll take a few less advantages from him..."

Unbeknownst to the two soul beast and human, Ancestor appeared over them and carefully observed the changes on his incarnation.

He clearly noticed a familiar, momentarily surge of power rising in Huo Yuhao's eyes as it flashed purple before dissipating back to normal, like it was an illusion.

'...So it is possible for him to attain that pair of eyes with the help of this girl. But it's too soon for him to unlock that level of power now, his current reserves couldn't fuel any of the eyes' techniques, it would kill him in seconds just by having them on.' He let a deep sigh and slowly disappeared back into Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea.

'I'll bring up the Rinnegan after he unlocks his Mangekyō Sharingan. Hopefully, this faker wouldn't be the catalyst for its awakening. I just did a basic observation of this martial soul they're making and its abilities are quite astonishing to say the least, and this is only when they're Soul Grandmasters.'

Ancestor raised his hand and clenched it, "Hopefully I would remain here until my incarnation's natural demise, I am quite excited to see what his entire life journey will be."

Back in the room, the two who were embracing each other had already turned into an enormous cocoon.

Time slowly passed.

....

"Xuan Lao, this is what happened. These students are still young; they're freshmen. Even though that's the case, they're truly deserving of our attention. Especially this kid, Huo Yuhao."

Wang Yan held a respectful expression as he faced someone sitting not far away from him.

It was an old man with disheveled hair, dressed in ragged greyish-brown changpao, he held a massive bottle gourd in his right hand while he held a fried chicken on his other.

He took big gulp from the massive gourd, sighing in bless, he then said, "Huo Yuhao huh... This isn't the first I've heard about this youth, actually. How interesting."

"Huh? Did you already know about Huo Yuhao beforehand?"

Xuan Lao shook his head, "Not specifically. I've just heard mentions of his name from a few fellows in the pavilion is all."

Wang Yan's eyes went wide.

The pavilion! In the entire Shrek Academy, there was only place that had name that Xuan Lao would frequently visit and that was the Sea God Pavilion!

The Sea God Pavilion is the central power and governing body of Shrek Academy and Shrek City. Members gather to discuss important matters of state and things that concern the safety of humanity itself.

"So he's already being taken care of by an elder?" Wang Yan excitedly said.

Xuan Lao took a bite out of the fried chicken and replied, "Oh, not exactly. One showed interest of him because of a previous incident concerning his beloved student, while the other was concern about the boy's darkness."

"Darkness?" Wang Yan repeated, confused.

Xuan Lao's face dimmed, he let out a deep sigh and took another swig from his gourd and said, "Everyone comes from all kinds of places, and as an academy, we will accept anyone as long as they prove themselves to be a genius and not bring harm to the school."

"But, obviously, some of those geniuses wouldn't always come from nice backgrounds like the rest."
