Chapter 202.3. Human-shaped Soul Tool


    Huo Yuhaos control was a little rough at the start. But the movements of this metallic man became increasingly smooth as he familiarized himself with the controls.


    Although this metallic mans movements were still a little dyed, and deviated slightly from how a real human moved, it was pertinent to note that it was being controlled by Huo Yuhao using joysticks and buttons! His ability to maintain bnce had already shocked Xuan Ziwen.


    Time passed second after second. The metallic man only stopped ten minutester. Finally, it adopted a half-squat position before straightening.


    Following this, Huo Yuhao inserted his arms and legs into the empty sides of the metallic mans interior. The control panel that was initially in front of him was retracted to the side of his waist. The soul tool started to move again.


    Through his two spiritual perspectives, Xuan Ziwen could see that the metallic man was now being controlled by Huo Yuhaos soul power and limbs. It boasted a far greater flexibility now.


    When Huo Yuhao controlled it and used the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, Xuan Ziwen felt like he was being strangled. He was bing extremely emotional.


    He saw the results from the outside, and watched how he did it from the inside. The human-form soul tool didnt use any offensive soul tools throughout the entire process, but it greatly moved Xuan Ziwen.


    The projection started to turn blurry. Everything seemed to return to normal, and the spiritual power that had surged into Xuan Ziwens spiritual sea slowly faded away.


    Impossible! When Xuan Ziwen recovered from the projection Huo Yuhao had showed him, he shouted without a care. He already stood up at this point, and there was strong undtions of soul power surging from his body. The rare metals that were strewn on the ground started to scatter in the air, and even Huo Yuhao staggered a few steps back before he managed to stabilize himself.


    Xuan Ziwen was perspiring, and his eyes were red. He was like apetitive bull, one that was staring at Huo Yuhao, and he said word by word, This. Is. Impossible! Tell me that its not real!


    Huo Yuhao looked at him calmly and said, Teacher Xuan, youre a ss 8 soul engineer and you shouldnt be that far off from a ss 9 soul engineer. Cant you tell if its real or not? Even if it was only a projection, that doesnt mean that I dont have the ability to produce it in reality.


    Xuan Ziwen red at him and asked, How did you create those images? And how did you divide them into different perspectives too?


    Huo Yuhao replied, I refuse to answer your questions. They involve secrets regarding my soul skills.


    Xuan Ziwen took in a deep breath and was a little anxious as he walked up and down in the room. He didnt even care as he kicked the rare metals that were strewn about.


    Huo Yuhao seemed to have expected this result. He sat in the chair that Xuan Ziwen was just using and waited calmly.


    In the dorm room, one of them was pacing up and down frantically, while the other remained seated calmly. Neither of them made any other moves.


    Time passed second after second. Xuan Ziwen didnt stop perspiring, and in fact started to sweat even more. It started to drip from his jaw, while the back of his shirt was already soaked.


    He waspletely immersed in his thoughts now. His mind was circting quickly as he pondered.


    This carried on for fifteen minutes before Xuan Ziwen suddenly stopped. He turned around to face Huo Yuhao suddenly, and the beads of perspiration on his face were flung off by the sudden turn.


    How many formation arrays did you use? Xuan Ziwens voice was trembling.


    Huo Yuhao replied, Thirty-two.


    Impossible. How can it be so few? Did you know you didnt know! Xuan Ziwen was muttering to himself as he stared at Huo Yuhao.


    Huo Yuhao smiled and said, Teacher Xuan, Im only a at most ss 6 soul engineer.


    How many formation arrays did you think Id use toplete this soul tool? Furthermore, you saw its size, internal structure and physical form. Without adding any offensive tools, theres only a handful of ces that can contain formation arrays. How many formation arrays did you think there would be?


    Xuan Ziwen replied, Then how did you manage to make it move, and even make it fly, without pouring in soul power?


    Huo Yuhao didnt hide the truth. He said almost naturally, Milk Bottles! I added twelve ss 6 Milk Bottles. While the soul power in the Milk Bottles bes vtile, it happens much slowerpared to other soul tools. Theoretically speaking, it can maintain flight for two hours without using my own soul power as long as these twelve Milk Bottles are filled with soul power beforehand. Otherwise, I can engage in an intense fight for ten minutes, but that will include other offensive soul tools. I wont talk much about the internal design. This is a stupid design because only soul masters can control this soul tool. After all, Milk Bottles are only replenished by soul masters.


    Xuan Ziwen stared at Huo Yuhao. How did you know that I was researching soul power outflow prevention in Milk Bottles?


    Huo Yuhao was stunned. I didnt!


    You didnt know? Xuan Ziwen was now the one who was stunned. Then why did you use Milk Bottles to provide power for this human-form soul tool?


    Huo Yuhao looked at him anxiously and replied, It was the only method I could think of. Teacher Xuan, have you really found a way to prevent the outflow of soul power? Thats great! If Xuan Ziwen wasnt lying, the practicality of his human-form soul tool would be greatly enhanced.


    Xuan Ziwen changed the topic instantly and said, Thats not the main point. The main point is, how did you manage to bnce the human-form soul tool? Doesnt every joint have to be controlled using formation arrays? Theres also the linkage and coordination between the arrays. Problems will definitely arise. Did you think about all these problems?


    Huo Yuhao replied, I thought of them! Not everything requires formation arrays.


    Then what did you use? Xuan Ziwen probed.


    Huo Yuhao chortled and replied, Sorry! Teacher Xuan, I cant tell you. Thats a secret.


    Xuan Ziwen turned gloomy. Huo Yuhao answered his questions at the start, but imed that it was a secret when he got to the critical questions. He was obviously ying with him!


    With Xuan Ziwens proficiency in soul tools, he wanted to use his Milk Bottle form on human-form soul tools after they developed one. However, the human-form soul tools in the Illustrious Virtue Hall were toorge. If he only used Milk Bottles, he wouldnt be able to create ss 9 Milk Bottles. Even if he could use ss 8 Milk Bottles, he needed more than ten of them to ensure the experiment ran smoothly. And then it would only be able to work normally for an hour. This also meant that more than ten eight-ringed Soul Douluos had to follow the soul tool to make it move before it could work properly. In addition, Xuan Ziwen was certain that the soul tool couldntpare to Huo Yuhaos metallic man in terms of flexibility.


    Xuan Ziwen wasnt concerned about Huo Yuhaos craftsmanship. The metallic man might have many problems. He found five to six problems that couldnt be resolved right away. However, the key thing was his concept!


    He had only used thirty-two formation arrays before he managed to make the metallic man move. It was practical, and didnt require Huo Yuhao to use his soul power to make it move. At least it could be used to escape.


    Xuan Ziwen was puzzled by all this. He started to be very restless.


    Impressive! Huo Yuhao, you are impressive. Xuan Ziwen looked at him and was filled with emotions. He knew that Huo Yuhao wasnt lying. That human-form soul tool couldnt have been created by him alone.


    Theplex structure that it possessed couldnt have beenpleted in just two years. It must be rted to his sect. How should Xuan Ziwen go about asking him then?


    Xuan Ziwen knew that this was all Huo Yuhaos grand ploy to attract him. On the surface, he said that he didnt have ten new creations. However, he came up with a product that represented the essence of the research that Xuan Ziwen had always been invested in. How could he not be interested?


    Xuan Ziwen took in a deep breath and said, Yuhao, tell me if this is agreeable. I dont want your detailed production method. I just want to know the concept and ideas behind this human-form soul tool. Ill trade for them with the Sealed Milk Bottle form that I justpleted. You need to know that this form will change the whole development of soul tools. I havent reported it to the Hall yet. But once more data is collected, I believe this form will be one of the most important bits of research in the Illustrious Virtue Hall. Do you want to make a trade?


    Huo Yuhao was a little hesitant now on this. As a ss 6 soul engineer, he knew that Xuan Ziwen was right. The appearance of Sealed Milk Bottles was bound to change the world of soul tools! Ordinary people wouldnt find it so difficult to control soul tools anymore. Although the price of Sealed Milk Bottles was bound to be astronomical, they could solve the huge power problem when used on human-form soul tools. Even though this didnt solve the root of the problem, it wasntpletely out of the question to create huge Milk Bottles for Test Subject 1. Thinking about it gave Huo Yuhao the chills.
