Chapter 104 The Clues of the Empire and Wang Dongbi's Scaled Serpent
"real?"
Upon hearing that he could ride a dragon for free, Huo Yuhao was immediately overjoyed.
That's a dragon!
Especially the Black Dragon Emperor, whose true form is said to be a Chinese dragon.
"nature."
Di Tian nodded in acknowledgment.
Huo Yuhao's divine test has begun.
With their assistance, becoming a God-King is a sure thing. At his peak, he was only a Level 1 God. Letting a God-King ride him would be no problem at all.
This can indirectly deepen the relationship between them.
This is quite rare.
"roar!"
The roar of the dragon resounded throughout the heavens and earth.
Above Mingdu, a figure that blotted out the sky appeared and disappeared, its jet-black, slender body covered in lifelike scales. An ordinary person would feel mentally damaged just by looking at it.
A giant dragon coiled in the sky, its mighty power like divine punishment.
The titled Douluo and the ninth-level Soul Master all looked up at him, and just one glance from those eyes, which were as big as calves, rendered them powerless to resist.
Ten thousand years ago, no one knew of Emperor Tian's formidable reputation.
But ten thousand years later, the appearance of Di Tian dealt a major blow to humanity.
This person's strength far exceeds human imagination.
Even the Limit Douluo could only fight against him.
If Di Tian hadn't had no intention of destroying humanity, it's uncertain whether humanity would still exist today.
"So cool." Huo Yuhao looked at the huge black dragon, a slight smile playing on his lips. He glanced at the stunned Xu Tianran and greeted him, "I'll be leaving now. I'll leave the Spirit Pagoda to you from now on."
After saying that, Huo Yuhao disappeared from the spot.
Instead, it appeared above the Emperor's Heaven.
High in the sky, the wind howled, but Huo Yuhao remained unmoved, sitting and looking down at the ant-sized adult insects below, feeling a surge of heroic spirit.
"Where to?" Di Tian turned his head and asked.
"The far north, Luoyang City."
He's going back.
As for this part, it's almost finished.
Di Tian's strong limbs supported his massive body, and his two huge wings were fully spread out behind him, like two dark iron curtains being opened.
With a flap of its wings, it stirred up a storm-like gust of wind, and its mountain-like body took flight.
In a secluded corner, where no one knew him, Long Xiaoyao forced down the blood rising in his chest and stared blankly at the figure standing on his dragon back in the distance.
He truly hadn't expected it.
This person actually helped humans.
"Elder Long, it's all my fault." Zhongli Wu lowered his head, gritted his teeth, and said with a face full of resentment, "I originally wanted to take the opportunity to kill Xiao Yan, but the Soul Beast Lord's pressure made me unable to move even before he arrived."
He originally thought he could also fight against the Limit Douluo.
Only now do I realize how different they are.
He felt immobilized simply by the pressure alone.
"It's alright. After all, that's the number one beast in Douluo Continent. Even I couldn't hold it off by myself."
A flicker of emotion crossed Long Xiaoyao's eyes, his thoughts unreadable.
After this incident...
News of the close relationship between the Tower Master of the Spirit Pagoda and the Lord of Soul Beasts spread like wildfire.
Some people angrily denounced Huo Yuhao as a bestial rapist.
Some people believe that the Tower Master subdued the Lord of Soul Beasts.
Some also believe that he was Di Tian's illegitimate son.
Various unofficial histories continued to circulate from all directions.
Regardless, the Spirit Pagoda has truly become the number one power in the Douluo Continent.
But Huo Yuhao didn't think so.
There are twenty or thirty Title Douluo-level combatants in Mingdu alone. Although there may not be many Limit Douluo, they are enough to injure Di Tian.
As for why they didn't attack, it's very likely that they intend to observe the attitude of the Soul Beast Lord. After all, the Soul Beasts have already made an agreement with humans and should not launch an attack.
Besides these, Huo Yuhao was also wary of the forces from all sides.
Besides Long Xiaoyao, the Holy Spirit Cult also has Ye Xishui, a Limit Douluo, and moreover, it has connections with the Evil Emperor. Huo Yuhao is not someone who can mess with them.
Unless Di Tian brings all the ferocious beasts to help him.
Secondly, there is the Haotian Sect.
Yes, he remembers it very clearly.
The Haotian Sect also has the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python in charge, who are considered to be at the level of gods, but it seems that they do not have any divine positions in the Douluo Continent.
In addition, there is Tang Hao, who intends to control the dimensional embryo.
The Blue Silver Emperor took root in the ancient tree at Shrek Academy.
And then there's the behemoth that is the Body Sect.
These forces are not royal, but if Huo Yuhao starts a major war, he will inevitably run into them.
If this group of people were to come together, even Huo Yuhao and Di Tian wouldn't be able to withstand them.
This is also why Huo Yuhao didn't let Di Tian directly destroy the Sun Moon Empire.
His actions could easily provoke a brawl.
Accumulate grain slowly and build high walls – that's the way to go.
The Spirit Pagoda, Headquarters.
Huo Yuhao and Di Tian sat facing each other, sipping their tea.
"Di Tian, thank you very much this time." Huo Yuhao took out the Soul Spirit Scroll and handed it to him.
In a transaction, one party cannot always be the one making the sacrifices.
This is clearly not suitable for long-term use.
"No problem." Di Tian said it so casually, but his hands quickly put away the note.
This is another way for him to raise his soul beasts.
If we could acquire it, that would be wonderful.
"Di Tian, the Soul Spirits have now covered a large area of the Douluo Continent. You can also take some time to see what changes have taken place in the Douluo Continent."
"Souls are now called legendary spirits and are cherished by soul masters, which has greatly improved their relationship with them."
Upon hearing this, Di Tian simply nodded, took a small sip of the tea that humans usually drink, and found it somewhat bitter and unpleasant to drink.
"Nowadays, spirit beasts have become a trend, and the hunting of spirit beasts has decreased significantly. However, if we want to go further, we may need your strong support."
"Hmm?" Di Tian looked at him with surprise. "We soul beasts are good at fighting, but how can we help you?"
Di Tian had no intention of getting involved in the matter of souls.
Just need a spot.
They don't understand humans either, so how are they supposed to handle this?
Huo Yuhao revealed a mysterious smile, rested his chin on his hands, and said, "I plan to create a new empire, an empire that will unify the Douluo Continent."
Upon hearing this, Di Tian frowned.
He asked, "Then my soul beast race is also under your jurisdiction?"
"You could say that," Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "but I will make your soul beast race stand on the same level as the human race. Soul beasts that are over 100,000 years old will all become guardian beasts of the country and rule over a region."
To put it simply, what Huo Yuhao is doing now is similar to King Wen of Zhou enfeoffing eight hundred princes.
However, Huo Yuhao's responsibility to them was to ensure their safety; the rest of the time they could just eat and drink as they pleased.
"I need to go back and think about this."
Di Tian hesitated for a moment before answering.
He couldn't make that decision.
I need to go back.
"Okay, I'll wait for your reply."
Huo Yuhao nodded and saw Di Tian off.
Then he picked up a map, which was divided into eight areas.
Spirit Pagodas already exist in the four great empires, the Star Dou Great Forest, and the far north.
The remaining two territories are the sea and the demon forest.
The latter is also quite difficult.
The former, on the other hand, has a better chance.
That place could be the initial trump card of the sea god belief.
If we could destroy the faith there, even if we didn't remove that lowly sea god from his position, just being disgusting would be good.
However, a lot of preparation is needed to go to sea.
Once you set off, you'll truly be cut off from the mainland for the foreseeable future, making it easy to lose track of the situation on Douluo Continent.
Currently, Huo Yuhao still intends to prioritize the Divine Examination.
To accelerate the process of becoming a Title Douluo.
Once he becomes a Title Douluo, he will then consider taking over the Douluo Continent.
"Um?"
Huo Yuhao subconsciously used his mental detection to scan the inside of the Spirit Pagoda, and unexpectedly discovered several familiar yet unfamiliar figures.
"It is truly a gift from heaven."
The third floor of the Spirit Pagoda.
A handsome young man, almost like a woman, guided the arriving guests; this man was none other than Wang Dong.
Before Huo Yuhao and Tang San completely broke off relations, he left Shrek Academy and came to the Spirit Pagoda.
Of course, he wasn't alone.
If it weren't for Ning Tian's help, he might not have been able to get a job at the Spirit Pagoda.
At that time, he was the most outstanding employee on the third floor.
Wang Dong skillfully guided the guests with a smile, saying, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the place of the thousand-year-old spirits. Your spirit is the Azure Scale Serpent. The Poison Douluo had this kind of spirit ten thousand years ago. We have three kinds of snake spirits with poison attributes here."
"Among the snakes with dragon bloodlines, there are five types that are non-venomous."
"Although our Spirit Pagoda is nominally selling soul spirits, soul beasts choose soul spirits, and soul spirits also choose soul masters. Only if a soul spirit likes you can you take the soul spirit from the Spirit Pagoda."
Yes, there are rules for obtaining souls from the Spirit Pagoda.
In order to facilitate the soul spirit becoming a Pokémon-like existence in the future, Huo Yuhao issued this rule in the initial stage.
This is all for the purpose of elevating the status of the soul.
Soul Masters can choose to feed the spirit or to move the spirit with sincerity; as long as it nods, it's yours.
Souls also need food.
This was recently awarded by Huo Yuhao.
Although the Spirit Ascension Platform has not yet been developed, the Spirit Ascension Pill has been developed using leftover materials and rudimentary thinking.
It has the same meaning as the Ascension Platform.
It contains the essence of the strange Azure Vine that was previously replenished, which can slowly increase the lifespan of the soul, up to a maximum of ten thousand years.
Given the current state of the Azure Vine, it can only produce enough essence for one year's cultivation, but even so, it is still a novel innovation.
If an even more powerful elixir is developed in the future.
All of these could be a different kind of world of beast taming and immortal cultivation.
"Could you please take me to see the venomous snake spirit?" the green-haired girl said without hesitation.
The Jade Scale Snake is primarily poisonous.
Innovation means the unknown.
Therefore, no one has yet developed an alternative path for the Azure Scale Serpent, which may also be due to the nature of this world.
There is almost no theory on the evolution of martial spirits.
There are only records of immortal herbs, not the fundamental improvement between soul rings and martial souls.
"Wait a minute, although the Azure Scaled Serpent is known for its venom, it harms both the enemy and itself, so it's better to..."
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out.
The girl with the Azure Scale Serpent Martial Soul turned her head and saw a boy dressed in gorgeous robes not far away.
From afar, one could see that he was tall and handsome, with an otherworldly air. Upon closer inspection, one could clearly see his clear eyebrows and facial features, and his eyes sparkled as he looked around. He truly had a handsome appearance untouched by worldly affairs.
For a moment, she was stunned.
He had never seen such a stunning man before, especially those heterochromatic eyes, which made him seem even more mysterious.
"Greetings, Tower Master."
When people around Huo Yuhao saw him, they looked at him with respect and bowed. Passersby who heard this also moved closer to him.
"Tower Master, Tower Master, it's me, Old Wang. You helped me vent my anger before."
"Master of the Tower, thanks to you, otherwise this old man would not be able to support my grandson at all."
"Tower Master, I'm Xiao Liu from the East District—"
Most of the people who come here to buy spirits are from ordinary families and have worked under the Spirit Pagoda.
Their gratitude towards Huo Yuhao was akin to that of a second parent.
"Uh—everyone, please calm down."
Looking at the crowd that had completely surrounded him, Huo Yuhao wore a slightly uncomfortable smile.
In just a short while, his hands and body were filled with many things: eggs, desserts, and vegetables.
A long while passed.
Huo Yuhao then stepped out from the crowd and led the Jade Scale Serpent and Wang Dong to a room.
"Cough cough—" Huo Yuhao cleared his thoughts and said, "Ten thousand years ago, the Azure Scale Serpent was poisonous. Although it could be detoxified by relying on the Soul Bone, it was only a temporary solution. I have two methods here that can tell you how to completely change the situation."
"I wonder what the tower master wants me to do?"
The girl with the green scale snake wasn't stupid either; she knew from the fact that the soul bone could detoxify that the tower master in front of her definitely had a solution.
However, there is no such thing as a free lunch.
"How about joining my Spirit Pagoda?" Huo Yuhao said with a light laugh.
The person in front of me looks no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, but his soul power has reached level twenty or above, clearly indicating that he is also a talented soul master.
Most importantly, it's the filter that Poison Douluo comes with.
Poison is not powerful in Douluo Continent.
Ten thousand years ago, Dugu Bo had already committed the disgrace of being named a Title Douluo.
But he's the MVP in group attacks.
It would be great if such a strong person could be cultivated.
If we really push him too far, we'll just arrange for the Jade Scale Serpent to poison everyone.
As the saying goes, it may harm the heavens and the people, but it will not harm Wenhe.
Having someone who can wipe out a group of minions is quite good.
"I'm willing to join the Spirit Pagoda," the girl with the Azure Serpent Martial Soul agreed in one breath.
Who wouldn't want to join the Spirit Pagoda?
This is fantastic news!
"Good, a wise choice." Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "I have two ways to deal with the Jade Scale Serpent. We can continue the path of the Martial Soul Serpent and obtain a Soul Beast with the attributes of devouring and poison. We can then transfer our own toxins to the Soul Spirit, thus preventing the Soul Master from being poisoned."
"Secondly, the evolutionary path is to evolve the Azure Scale Serpent into the Azure Scale Dragon, abandoning the poison attribute and absorbing the toxins by devouring the souls of those with dragon attribute bloodlines, thereby strengthening itself and becoming a dragon attribute martial soul."
The two options are pretty much the same.
But they all require a soul.
The method is similar to that of obtaining a soul bone.
The only difference is that the soul spirit is independent of the soul master, unlike the soul bone which poses a hidden danger in the body.
This not only greatly ensures one's own safety but also provides the foundation for evolving into the ultimate poison.
The girl with the green scales pondered for a moment upon hearing this, then said with a solemn expression, "Tower Master, I choose the first one."
"My Dugu clan has always relied on poison, and I do not want to abandon this very foundation that my family both regrets and cherishes."
