Chapter 157: Profane Ritual
The vast memories accumulated by the Sea Princess over hundreds of thousands of years are being rapidly flipped through by Huo Yuhao through his mental power.

Although the Sea Princess’s spiritual power was extremely huge, from the perspective of Huo Yuhao’s Eye of Truth, it was fast-forwarded countless times.

Feeling the swelling and pain coming from the sea of ​​​​his spirit.

And the pain that all of his mental strength seemed to be cut and crushed bit by bit.

The Sea Princess tried hard not to scream, but to avoid a stress response in the painful situation.

Huo Yuhao still controlled her through the sealing technique in advance.

Even though his mental power is not as good as Princess Sea's, Huo Yuhao has already surpassed her in terms of control over mental power.

But now it was not Huo Yuhao who was deliberately torturing Princess Hai.

It’s just that in the long life of the soul beast.

A large amount of useless memories continue to pile up in the sea of ​​​​spirituality.

This makes it difficult for them to record everything accurately in detail.

In order to prevent any mistakes, Huo Yuhao needed to dig out those dusty memories one by one.

Therefore, it still takes a lot of effort to find these memories completely and finally reproduce them all.

After all, the Demon Soul Great White Shark that was directly killed by Huo Yuhao was different.

For Huo Yuhao, Princess Sea cannot just die like this for the time being.

Otherwise, it would be much easier to extract its memory through necromancy after it has been trained into an undead.

Therefore, the vitality of the Sea Princess and her own strength will not be seriously damaged.

It is so troublesome to read it in full and obtain its memory.

However, despite this, it only took Huo Yuhao six days.

He sorted out all the memories of the Sea Princess.

As the Eye of Truth gradually analyzed, Huo Yuhao's analysis speed became faster and faster.

And in the Sea Princess' long life of hundreds of thousands of years, there was indeed not much worth noting.

This is also normal for soul beasts, considering they have a long lifespan.

Every day they spend can be described as monotonous and extremely boring from a human perspective.

Moreover, soul masters and humans have different worldviews and concepts of time.

In the memories of the Sea Princess, there were only a few things worthy of Huo Yuhao's attention.

The first thing is the encounter between the Sea Princess and the first Poseidon.

Hundreds of thousands of years ago, the Sea Princess was just a young mermaid with only 100,000 years of cultivation, and had not yet become the leader of the mermaid clan.

At that time, the mermaid clan was just a slightly stronger ordinary sea soul beast clan in the ocean.

The turning point of everything started when she met the first generation Sea God, who was still an Extreme Douluo at that time.

At that time, Douluo Star was still in the final stages of the era when soul beasts ruled.

However, that human soul master possessed terrifying strength that surpassed the level of ferocious beasts.

According to the memory of the Sea Princess.

At that time, the Extreme Douluo who was close to the god-level spent nearly a thousand years in total.

With absolute strength, he conquered all the sea soul beast tribes and sea soul master forces in the ocean.

Then he appointed a sea soul beast with a long lifespan, which was different from ordinary sea soul beasts.

He has a tribe of mermaids who are born with intelligence that is no less intelligent than humans as his priests.

From this moment on, the mermaids came into contact with the existence of the power of faith.

They served as sacrifices to the Sea God, replacing the Ultimate Douluo himself.

Using the sea area of ​​Douluo Star as pasture, he subdued the sea soul beasts and sea soul masters as believers and spread the faith of the Sea God.

After a hundred years of accumulation, the collection was completed with the power of faith.

The Extreme Douluo completed his transformation and officially ascended to become the first generation Sea God.

The mermaids were not treated unfairly either. After the first generation of the Sea God ascended to the divine realm, he granted the mermaids the protection of the Sea God.

The mermaids' innate strong mental power allows them to exert even more powerful power in the ocean environment.

At the same time, through the medium of faith and sacrificial rituals, the spiritual power of the mermaids can be connected to each other.

This is an ability that the original mermaids never possessed.

Although they now regard it as a talent, it is actually a blessing from the sea god.

It was also from this time that the mermaids, as the followers of the Sea God, truly became the top soul beast race.

Among these memories, the most important one for Huo Yuhao was naturally the process of the first generation Sea God becoming a god.

"The power of faith should be called telekinesis in the Douluo God Realm."

'According to specific rituals, the prayers of these mermaids will shape a fixed image of the sea god.'

'This is equivalent to the targeted selection of mental power, which becomes the foundation for shaping the throne of God.'

"Otherwise, apart from those innate gods, anyone else who dares to absorb the complicated and chaotic mental energy will probably get into trouble."

'Although I don't have as much time as the first generation of Poseidon to gather the power of faith, this can also be used as a reference direction.'

'There are still a steady stream of undead in the undead demiplane. If it is... keep it for record.'

"But the ritual that this first-generation sea god has the mermaids perform for generations seems to be somewhat interesting. It is more like some kind of magic than a self-created soul skill."

'Perhaps by chance, this first generation sea god also received inheritance from other worlds.'

"But with this ritual as a reference, the Eye of Truth can continue its analysis."

"The magic that Master Yi taught me also contains many similar rituals that can be used as reference."

'After the analysis is completed, maybe I can use it in reverse.'

While thinking, an ambiguous light flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes.

Although the prayers to gods in the magic rituals taught by Alex are mostly concrete representations of the elements themselves.

But after changing to a new world, the effect was not completely lost, it was just that the object of prayer changed from the god itself to the deity.

After all, the strength level of the gods of Douluo Star is far inferior to that of the gods of the Holy Demon Continent, but they have retained their own thinking ability.

At the same time, the reason why the first generation Sea God can rank among the first-level gods in the Douluo God Realm is precisely because he is the first generation to become a god and create his own godhood.

After experiencing the Dragon God Rebellion, the Douluo God Realm, except for the five great God Kings and a handful of first-level gods, can almost be said to have undergone a major reshuffle.

Subsequent gods who inherited the status of previous gods, as well as those gods whose foundations were damaged due to wars with dragons, all lost the possibility of advancement.

Over time, he is naturally no match for the first generation Poseidon who is able to constantly improve himself and gradually become stronger.

As for the current second generation Sea God Tang San, haha.

Apart from this incident, because of the protection of the sea god, the mermaid clan is becoming more and more powerful.

For the Sea Princess, there were fewer and fewer things worth noting in the entire ocean. And that was until ten thousand years ago.

Most of the memories of the Sea Princess are of the calm and peaceful icy sea.

Ten thousand years ago, Poseidon was reincarnated.

Tang San inherited the throne of Seagod and became the new Seagod. He also issued several new oracles.

However, this is different from the previous times when the sea god issued oracles directly through the power of faith.

Every time Tang San issued an oracle, he would almost always use the method of sending his spiritual consciousness down to the mortal world.

It seems that it is because he is not yet proficient in controlling the throne, or he has other ideas.

In short, the status of the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan, which provided a lot of help to Tang San in becoming the Sea God, has also risen over the past ten thousand years.

The mermaid clan was somewhat neglected, but the Sea Princess didn't care about it.

After all, as long as the sea god does not take back his blessing on the mermaids, the status of the mermaids in the sea will be difficult to shake.

Through the memories of the Sea Princess, Huo Yuhao also learned about the various arrangements Tang San had made through the mermaid clan and the sea soul beasts.

'It seems that when Tang San monitored Douluo Star for the past ten thousand years, he discovered a small world on another continent on Douluo Star.'

"But there is no time to conduct actual exploration, so we just arranged for the sea soul beast to guard it?"

Huo Yuhao roughly sorted out the progress of Tang San's plan.

However, the mermaids could no longer get feedback from the Sea God through prayer, which confirmed Huo Yuhao's guess.

"It seems that there are indeed some problems in the God Realm, otherwise Tang San would have used some other means to control and influence me."

"I just don't know when the God Realm will recover. I guess I have to hurry up."

"Cough, cough, are you okay?" The Sea Princess moaned weakly.

At this moment, her face was pale, and drops of golden tears rolled down to the ground.

Huo Yuhao casually stroked it with his hand, and the Sea Princess's spiritual sea, which was on the verge of breaking and turbulent, suddenly calmed down.

At the same time, the mermaid tears that rolled to the ground were transformed into spiritual origins by Huo Yuhao and injected into the spiritual sea of ​​the Sea Princess.

Huo Yuhao then released his control over the Sea Princess.

After struggling to stand up, the Sea Princess was speechless when she looked at the human soul master in front of her.

'This kind of exquisite control over mental power is far superior to mine. How did he do it? His cultivation is obviously far inferior to mine.'

"Okay, let's sign the soul contract now."

"Then you mermaids should continue to pray to the sea god according to the ritual I have imprinted in your spiritual sea."

Feeling the additional information in the sea of ​​spirit, the Sea Princess fell silent.

If they really take this step, the mermaids will probably not only be despised by the sea god.

I'm afraid it might be completely wiped out from the ocean by the sea god.

Different from simple betrayal, Huo Yuhao analyzed the mermaid tribe’s prayer ritual through the Eye of Truth.

On this basis, it was reversed and tampered with.

If it was the telekinesis provided by the original mermaid clan.

It is through praying to the image of the sea god that one has imagined.

This is to consolidate and deepen the divine powers of the Sea God, such as tolerance and order.

Then the prayer ceremony that Huo Yuhao modified was based on the original one.

It is mixed with many ideas such as chaos and variability, which conflict with the throne of Poseidon constructed by the first generation of Poseidon.

Prayers mixed with this kind of thought can naturally generate mental power to be supplied to the corresponding deity.

However, the nature of the deity's position will also have an impact on the deity itself if impurities are added to the original basis.

Even if Poseidon's power can eventually continue to increase normally through the total amount of mental power, hidden dangers will inevitably be buried.

If this method was used against the first generation of Poseidon, the effect might not be very good.

According to the talent of the person who created his own godhood, he is fully capable of reintegrating it into his own godhood duties.

But for Tang San, who was the second-in-command to succeed the throne of Seagod, the divine power mixed with alien mental power was enough to keep him busy for a while.

After a long silence, the Sea Princess finally chose to sign the soul contract.

In any case, all her people have now been captured by Huo Yuhao.

Even if the sea god later held them accountable for the blasphemy of the ritual and brought down the disaster of extermination of the entire clan.

But at least now, if they don’t cooperate with Huo Yuhao, their entire clan will probably die on the spot.

Now the Sea Princess can only pray in her heart that when the Lord of the Sea discovers this, he will show mercy and spare her other tribesmen.

After the soul contract was signed, Huo Yuhao brought Princess Hai back to the Ice Palace to reunite with her clansmen.

“Snow Emperor.” Huo Yuhao handed an ice crystal carved from his own soul power and mental power to the other party.

"Keep an eye on these mermaids. Let them, under the leadership of the Sea Princess, follow the image I recorded."

"Complete seven rituals in total as required, then you can release them back into the icy sea."

Huo Yuhao then looked at the Sea Princess again: "After returning to the Ice Sea, follow the requirements of the previous soul contract."

"You go and gather and control the other sea soul beasts again, and have them pray and offer sacrifices according to the contents of this ritual."

Then, as pure ice element energy condensed, cold runes appeared in the air.

Then, under Huo Yuhao’s control, it was implanted into the body of every mermaid present.

"After everything is done, come to the Far North to find the Snow Emperor."

"She will help you remove this restriction on my behalf."

"One year. You mermaids only have one year at most."

After listening to Huo Yuhao's words, many mermaids' faces changed drastically, and they looked at their clan leader in confusion.

The Sea Princess just nodded numbly and did not resist at all.

Snow Queen took the ice crystal that Huo Yuhao had given her and asked, "Is there anything else we need to complete?"

Huo Yuhao shook his head: "These are all I need the Far North to do at the moment."

"The Swallowing Sea Plan remains unchanged. We will continue to expand the elemental tides as normal."

"When the time is right, I will come back to direct the continuation of the second phase of the plan."

After finishing everything, Huo Yuhao did not stay any longer.

Now the ice element energy accumulated in the Far North needs to be used on the blade.

It seems that his original plan to add a self-condensed soul ring to his second martial soul will have to be postponed for a while.

Next, it’s time to go to the Star Forest!
