Demonic Right Arm

--- Chapter 422 ---

After agreeing with something, Huo Yuhao, and Raikou flew to the sea of lightning as quickly as possible because teleportation was useless in this secret realm. The rules of space and time are too chaotic here.

"I can see some people fighting!" Raikou pointed out. 

Huo Yuhao stared into the distance and saw a crimson dragon fighting an unknown creature. Even though he couldn't recognize the appearance of this creature, he was sure it was Phantom's origin.

Huo Yuhao's eyes turned exceedingly colder each second time passed this place. They are still too far away from the battlefield.

"Honey, go!" Raikou shouted. "I will catch up to you later."

Huo Yuhao gave Raikou a nod before kicking the air and turning into a stream of blue light. He treaded the chaotic sea of lightning, skipping a thousand miles in one step.

That's just how fast his pure speed is.

Three breaths later, Huo Yuhao is a few thousand miles away from the battlefield. His eyes widened in anger because the Phantom robbed Liu Mei's right arm!

Before Huo Yuhao could react, Liu Mei decided to blow herself up.

"NOOOO!" Huo Yuaho clenched his hand, pushing the limit of movement speed, and broke the speed barrier and light barrier. At that moment, he learned a new concept but didn't realize it.

BOOOOOOOOOOOM!

Huo Yuhao tore the explosion with his body and reached for Liu Mei's waist with his hands. "Why are you so anxious?" 

He chuckled in relief and joy, "Do you really want to leave me that badly, Mei?" 

Liu Mei slowly opened her eyes and saw Huo Yuhao hugging her. Her body trembled as she reached out for his face.

"Master? Is that you?"

"Am I in a dream?" 

Huo Yuhao shook his head gently, "No, this is not a dream, Mei." 

"It's me, Yuhao." 

"Sorry for making you wait for too long." 

Liu Mei cried and hugged Huo Yuhao, pouring her out. At this moment, the indifferent goddess is no more. 

Yet the happy woman known as Liu Mei appears again.

Huo Yuhao kissed Liu Mei and caressed her face, "I'm sorry." 

"Don't be." Liu Mei replied comfortably. To her, seeing Huo Yuhao again is her most joyous experience in the last few thousand years. 

She wasn't angry with Huo Yuhao at all.

After all, she's willingly followed him here. Their goal was to allow her to form divinity in another world, and she did it.

...

Huo Yuhao knew Liu Mei's status panel had appeared, but he had no time to check it because he was busy to see if she was injured. Although he had prevented her from exploding using Blue Wave, which twisted the realm of possibility to suit his odds, he couldn't be more sure.

After a thorough check-up for a few seconds, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but sigh because Liu Mei's origin was too damaged, which meant her potential had gotten overconsumed due to that suicide attack.

He stopped the explosion from happening but didn't stop Liu Mei from giving up all her own. 

"Damn it! If only I have more mastery over Blue Wave!" Huo Yuhao cursed on the spot. 

"Master, language!" Liu Mei couldn't help but reprimand. "You don't have to be mad. I have accepted my fate." 

"No!" Huo Yuhao responded with a deep voice. 

"The world isn't okay without you..." 

"I won't be okay without you..." 

"Master..." Liu Mei felt conflicted. She could feel Huo Yuhao's love in that last line.

Huo Yuhao suddenly pulled something from the Azure Emperor's vault and presented it to Liu Mei. "Do you trust me? Take this, and make it your Martial Soul." 

"This..." Liu Mei saw the demonic-looking right arm in a cold, steel box and could tell this was no ordinary item. "What is this?" 

"A Divine Creation." Huo Yuhao answered calmly. "This demonic right arm was made using Phantom Emperor's Corpse, Soul Core, Beating Heart, and countless Divine Metals, making it not only a fearsome weapon but also a second life." 

"It will also replenish your lost origin, possibly evolving Thunder Demon Empress Martial Soul to a God-level." 

"After all, this was made with the remains of the ruler of that creature you fought earlier." 

"The one who "ate" your right arm..." He gritted his teeth in anger.

"No wonder I felt the same aura coming from this arm." Liu Mei nodded in understanding. She glanced at her lost arm and sighed because it was a "worth it" sacrifice.

Liu Mei stayed calm before replying, "What should I do?" 

Huo Yuhao sighed in relief because Liu Mei agreed. He created a platform and told her to sit down, pressing the demonic arm on her right shoulder.

Liu Mei felt a cold sensation on her shoulder and nothing else. Huo Yuhao knew this was only the beginning.

He injected his Divine Power to clean up Liu Mei's internal injury, washing and healing them with the power of fortune. 

He detected the remaining will of the creature, who seized Liu Mei's right arm earlier and trapped it inside the demonic arm as extra fuel to produce spirit rings. In short, he only wanted to make it suffer more.

Then, Huo Yuhao used the light necromancy magic that Eluxia taught him, fusing the demonic right arm into Liu Mei's body and creating a symbiotic relationship between them. He also guaranteed that Liu Mei was always in control by placing his spiritual thoughts inside.

Several light runes appeared, and purple tendrils came from the demonic right arm, attaching themselves to Liu Mei's shoulder.

Liu Mei watched this and was unfazed. She wasn't disgusted and felt the new sensation, realizing a newfound sensation in her once-lost right arm.

She moved her demonic right arm, waving it left and right several times before clenching the hand hard. "Perfect." 

"It's not over yet." Huo Yuhao smiled faintly because Liu Mei's origin had recovered to its original state, if not gotten better than before.

"Summon the Thunder Demon Empress Martial Soul." 

"I will connect the arm to it." 

Liu Mei nodded and summoned Thunder Demon Empress, who appeared shabby with a cracked body riddled with holes and missing more than half of the face because she used it in a hurry as the medium to explode her spirit rings.

Of course, not all of Liu Mei's spirit rings exploded. One spirit ring stayed the same and shone dimly behind the Thunder Demon Empress. The spirit ring of Sonares that occupied the 3rd ring slot, an Artificial Dragon's soul she contracted.

In fact, seeing this spirit ring made Liu Mei smile slightly. She's glad that Sonares was fine.

Huo Yuhao pulled a thunderbolt-shaped devil fruit from his inventory and handed it to Liu Mei, "Eat this devil fruit, connect the demonic right arm to Thunder Demon Empress, and evolve both through that connection."

"Can this Devil Fruit really do that?" Although Liu Mei has heard about Devil Fruits, she felt their effect was too weak to help her.

She got tempted to eat Goro-Goro no Mi (Rumble-Rumble Fruit), but the eater was nowhere to be seen when she arrived at Skypea.

Huo Yuhao smiled confidently, "A normal devil fruit cannot achieve this, but I believe this one will do." 

"I purified a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit into a mythical Zoan by chance." 

"It's called Human-Human Fruit, Model: Dianmu (Mother of Lightning) now."
