[You have condensed the 1st Blood Ring]
A purple-gold spirit ring peacefully floated behind Huo Yuhao's body, shining with purple rays. Blood Ring is Special-kind of Spirit Ring in the Douluo Dalu Universe, an exception to the "common." rule. It exuded a strong yet forceful draconic aura, causing the Imoogi to hiss in frustration.
It was the condensation of Naga's bloodline & Life Essence/Ki left within the Purple-Flamed Divine Dragon's Legacy, allowing Huo Yuhao to utilize Naga's skills by not consuming anything but stamina.

Huo Yuhao smirked because Naga kept his promise and gave him enough starting points. He stared at the Imoogi playfully and activated his Blood Ring.
A purple flame ignited within Huo Yuhao's heart, setting a blaze that wrapped his entire body. Purple scales grow on his skin, covering his neck and upper chest area. His left arm becomes tightly compact like a dragon's arm, adorning gleaming sharp claws.

"Naga isn't lying about this sensation. It's extremely liberating, making my inner pride resurface outside." Huo Yuhao commented and breathed in, feeling every inch of his body wanting to roar at the sky.
"Well, here we go."
He inhaled air into his lungs and released a "deafening." dragons roar on the coast. It shook the weather away and called upon thunderous clouds.
ROAR!
A pair of draconic royal blue eyes gazed at the Snake Dragon like small prey. The Imoogi's enormous body quivered slightly, watching Huo Yuhao with a surprised gaze. There was a faint fear toward this young human deep inside its heart.
Without any warning, Huo Yuhao suddenly disappeared from his position and appeared beside Imoogi's head. He created and used Wormholes to move instantly there.
"Penetrating Fist."
Huo Yuhao bent his entire body and smashed the Imoogi's head with his Haki-coated fist, sending the oceanic spirit beast flying to the southern coastline.
BAM! SWOOSH!
A shockwave blew the area apart, making the air current push Huo Yuhao away. He used this event and created a wormhole behind him, appearing above Imoogi's head. He looked down and summoned Thunderfire, illuminating the southern coast with violet light.
The Imoogi obviously won't let Huo Yuhao attack him like that again and ordered the weather to help. A strong breeze swept Huo Yuhao, yet the monstrous child could only grin at this situation.
"Hey, do you know why feeding air/oxygen into a fire is bad?" A childish voice echoed within the storm. "Because it would make it stronger! Your weak breeze wasn't strong enough to blow my Thunderfire away."
"Thanks for the food." Huo Yuhao descended from the sky with purple flame covering his entire body and drop-kicked the Imoogi.
BOOM!
A good chunk of Imoogi's head scales was smashed and caused severe bleeding. Huo Yuhao clenched his left hand and focused two types of Hakis simultaneously on his knuckle, punching the Snake Dragon's forehead.
BAM!
ROAR!
The Imoogi let out a painful roar and bashed Huo Yuhao against the nearest cliff. Its scales emitted an intense blue light and caused the seawater around them to ascend to the sky.
Huo Yuhao brushed the dust off his face and stared at the water pillar. "Heh, that's more like it." He stayed there a few seconds and watched the Imoogi's attack approaching him like a raging tidal wave.
"Here, take it back." He created a wormhole in front of himself and made another wormhole beside Imoogi's eyes, sending the water pillar back to the oceanic spirit beast.
The pressured water can cut almost everything, and fragile things like eyes are one of the easiest to break. The Imoogi tried to sway the water pillar away, but it was too late.
BOOM! ROAR!
Huo Yuhao climbed the cliff and looked down at the Imoogi that destroyed its own right eye. "Oh my, Don't look at me like that. You should have bowed before me, and I'd not done this, you know." He commented sarcastically.
"Well, it's about noon. Don't wanna make my mom worried, so let's finish this immediately."
ROAR!
The wind and water around them shifted abruptly, turning into an enormous blue lance with a tornado head. The final shot from the Snake Dragon rashly was constructed to beat Huo Yuhao, knowing deep inside this young monster cannot be defeated.
Huo Yuhao reacted by covering his dragon arm with Thunderfire and creating bird chirp-like noises. He leaped into the air and moved to Imoogi with his self-created attack.
"Thunderfire Blade."
A dragon claw with intense Thunderfire pierced the Imoogi's spear like a hot knife through butter, evaporating everything around it.
Huo Yuhao stared at the small horns above Imoogi's head and waved his dragon claw gently, cutting them off. It caused the oceanic spirit beast to become limp and fall into the sea.
"Phew, done." He summoned the Chains of Heaven and trapped the Imoogi in his Sub-Dimensional Space. "That was a good test for Naga's Martial Soul. The troll dragon didn't lie about his achievement, huh."
"Let's collect the last Moon Monolith and return to the Northern Sea City."
...
...
[You have tamed 17 Oceanic Spirit Beasts]
[You have finished the Quest]
[Calculating the rewards...]
[Rewarding 9 Silver Upgrading Tickets and Master Blacksmith Skill Card]
"Sweet. Goldy, come here." Huo Yuhao yelled while waving his hand at the Saltwater Golden Crocodile. A golden head quickly peeked out from the seawater and stared at him.
He patted the oceanic spirit beast and asked, "Do you want to follow me or stay here? Nod for follow."
Goldy frantically nodded his head and excitedly swam around with exciting movement. He growled and agreed to follow Huo Yuhao anywhere because the young human was a strong master to heed. It's following an absolute alpha.
"Good." Huo Yuhao chuckled cheerfully.
They returned to the Northern Sea City and noticed so many people gathering on the docks, watching the coastline with somewhat fear on their faces. Huo Yuhao face-palmed himself and told Goldy to hide underwater.
"Of course, people would see. My dumb head was too excited fighting that Imoogi, forgetting the Nothern Sea City's citizens could basically stay in their backyards with a cup of tea and witness our fight."
Huo Yuhao sighed in frustration and created wormholes to travel back to the quiet alley near the dock. He scanned the crowd and saw Yun Han among them. The middle-aged man has a panicked look on his face.
"Uugh, I had to tell Yun Han what happened on the coast." He shook his head helplessly. "He should be able to calm the crowd with his explanation."
Huo Yuhao used his spiritual energy and brushed Yun Han's head with it, strong enough to make the old fisherman turn around. "Come here." He waved his hand with a smile on his face.
"What the fuck was that!!" Yun Han shouted when reaching the alley. Thank god people are busy watching the coast because they could have heard that frustrated yell.
Huo Yuhao rubbed his ears and replied, "Don't shout. People would know our location, for fuck sake."
Yun Han suddenly grabbed Huo Yuhao's shoulders firmly and began to rock him back and forth, staring at him with a worried look. "I thought you were about to die... No one ever survived the whirlpools, after all." He muttered silently.
"I know my limit, old man." Huo Yuhao reassured Yun Han. "And the source behind the whirlpool's sudden appearance has been uncovered by me. They should have disappeared completely in a few days."
"What?? A-Are you?"
"Yeah."
"The whirlpool?"
"Yeah."
"What about the snake?"
"It's a Snake Dragon, but yeah."
"Then, everything will be okay from now on??"
"For fuck sake, old man. I said, "Yeah." three, no four times already! You're going senile faster than some girl in the bedroom." Huo Yuhao's mouth twitched in annoyance.
Yun Han scratched his neck because everything felt surreal to him. Even though he couldn't see anything plainly on the coast, witnessing the weather change abruptly with a purple glow and white blur. To think the young child before him accomplished such a thing was beyond his understanding.
'I thought he was only a child with ambition... No, this kid is a complete monster.' He thought while staring at Huo Yuhao's royal blue eyes.
Huo Yuhao leaned on the wall and explained everything to Yun Han. Well, almost everything because there was no way he told him about his abilities. The source of the whirlpools on the coast was a bunch of rocks that dropped from the moon.
"What about the rocks?" Yun Han questioned because those things are dangerous to be left alone.
Huo Yuhao shrugged and replied, "I took them away."
"Good." The middle-aged man sighed in relief. "Then, What should we do next? Should I explain the disappearance of the whirlpool to the people here?"
"Yeah, but don't tell them about the rocks. It would invite unnecessary problems later because someone will definitely be curious about it. Says that Oceanic Spirit Beasts fought against each other, moving to the open sea after getting injured. That's more believable and justified, considering the rich environment of the sea here." Huo Yuhao answered naturally.
Yun Han pondered for a minute and returned, "But doesn't that mean the oceanic spirit beast could return anytime and create havoc again? This possibility would make people anxious just thinking about it. "
"They won't because I have a way to prevent that. Trust me." A smirk appeared on Huo Yuhao's face.
