Douluo Jueshi, world modulation mode

Chapter 459 This is a high-stakes gamble!
The incomparably dazzling and sharp ice-blue divine light illuminated the world in the eyes of the Evil Eye Tyrant. Everything, whether it was the light of spacetime about to burst forth or the look of fear and unwillingness in his eyes, turned into a blinding ice-blue.

There was no earth-shattering roar of collision, only a devastating destruction. The protective shield formed by spirit and soul power shattered instantly, and the massive and ferocious body of the Evil Eye Tyrant broke apart like rotten wood being cut. His powerful body, which had accumulated hundreds of thousands of cultivation points, was as fragile as tofu in the face of that cold blade, and even his shrill roar was cut off.

A cold glint finally froze in the void. The Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord had been precisely cleaved in two. No blood gushed from the cut, and the extreme cold had frozen everything. The remaining power of that icy blue divine light condensed, and a glacier exuding a sharp and cold aura rose from the ground, standing on the broken body of the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord, like a tombstone.

"What is that?" Zhang Lexuan's gaze narrowed slightly. She seemed to see a short blade with an ice-blue body.

“The Sigh of the Ice Goddess, the Morning Dew Blade,” Anzhen said.

Pseudo-super artifact.

Aside from the Ghost Carving Divine Blade, which served as a token of inheritance for the God of Emotions, Huo Yutong's first divine weapon, a reward for passing the first test of the God of Emotions, perfectly matched her own extreme ice attribute.

As for why it's called the first one, it's because Huo Yutong obtained more than just this one pseudo-super artifact; she also obtained several other pseudo-super artifacts, namely the other six kitchen knives that came with it, all of which were pseudo-super artifact level kitchen knives.

As divine artifacts that accompanied Rong Nianbing in battles for many years, these pseudo-super divine artifacts, nurtured over many years from mortal to god, are undoubtedly very suitable for the position of the God of Emotions, just like the Asura Demon Sword is to the Asura God position. Once Huo Yutong passes the trials of the God of Emotions and continuously absorbs the power of the divine seed of the God of Emotions position, and masters the power of emotions, she will be able to gradually master these pseudo-super divine artifacts.

Huo Yutong no longer possesses the seven soul spirits from the original story, but using these seven pseudo-super artifacts as objects to carry the seven emotions is quite appropriate, since these were originally the exclusive artifacts of Rong Nianbing, the god of emotions.

An Zhen told Zhang Lexuan with a smile, "Through a secret method, the power of these seven pseudo-super artifacts can be fused together, unleashing a power that is in no way inferior to that of super artifacts."

"They practically ransacked Rong Nianbing's house."

However, that guy was quite generous. Huo Yutong and Rong Nianbing met during the divine trial. After all, they were master and disciple. When Rong Nianbing heard that Huo Yutong also liked to cook, he directly passed on his recipes and culinary skills, which meant that Huo Yutong had fully accepted his inheritance. For Rong Nianbing, the fact that his successor liked to cook and that these knives could be used for cooking in the future was a very gratifying thing for him.

Although Oscar holds the title of God of Food in the Douluo God Realm, Rong Nianbing is the true God of Cookery. In fact, he prefers to be seen as an excellent chef rather than a powerful magician.

An Zhen let out a heartfelt sigh, her voice filled with longing and envy, "Being able to travel the universe with your family to collect ingredients, without having to worry about any trivial matters, being able to do what you love, and enjoying a beautiful and ordinary life with your family, I really envy this guy's life."

But he still had to deal with that guy Tang San.

Without Tang San, he could have cultivated slowly and leisurely, relying on his own talent.

“That god of emotions…” Zhang Lexuan remarked, “is quite special.”

A divine position, a supreme artifact, a pseudo-supreme artifact—treasures that others desperately desire and yearn for—yet the God of Emotions could simply relinquish them.

“Everyone has different desires.” An Zhen watched as Huo Yutong, who had deactivated her Martial Soul True Body, used her own power to guide and accelerate the condensation of her Soul Rings, and began to absorb them.

"Some yearn for greater power, some yearn for the legendary Gate of Truth, some yearn for the throne of the world's emperor, but some yearn for the most ordinary and simple life. Cultivating to become stronger is just a stepping stone to their dreams."

The same applies to An Zhen. The ultimate goal of cultivating and becoming stronger is to achieve her dream of living the life she has always longed for.

These pursuits are neither noble nor lowly, and no one has ever been qualified to define them.

An Zhen raised her hand.

A dark blue aura emerged from the corpse of the Evil Eye Tyrant. It was a soul bone the size of a palm, but it did not resemble limbs, chest, or head; rather, its shape was similar to a human eye.

"An external soul bone?!" Zhang Lexuan exclaimed in surprise.

This was the first time she had ever seen an external soul bone that resembled an eye.

"It should have a significant effect on increasing mental strength," An Zhen said, after all, the eyes are the gateway to the soul, and the eyes and head are both related to the mental aspect of a martial soul.

Rubbing.

An Zhen returned the external soul bone to Huo Yutong's side. Possessing the life-giving metal, the power of this soul bone was negligible to him. As for the slight increase in spiritual power, it had little effect on An Zhen, who had already transformed his soul into divine consciousness. However, this soul bone was perfectly suited to Huo Yutong, who was absorbing the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord Soul Ring. Huo Yutong was absorbing the soul ring…

In Huo Yutong's spiritual sea.

"Come out now." Huo Yutong's eyes, as bright as stars, calmly gazed at the space in front of her. Tianmeng Bingcan, who usually appeared lazy and nerdy, showed a rare serious expression, looking as if she were facing a formidable enemy. However, her lazy and unassuming aura made people doubt her fighting ability.

"Human!" A venomous roar rang out, and a point of deep blue light appeared, then transformed into a miniature version of the Evil Eye Tyrant, its nearly one hundred tentacles waving wildly. "I will kill you!"

Huo Yutong said coldly, "A dying struggle."

If he couldn't defeat her in life, did he want to stir up trouble after his death?

"Roar!" A violent yet majestic dragon roar resounded.

The Ice Dragon King's massive, powerful, and beautiful dragon body suddenly appeared. As Huo Yutong's martial soul, it had now recovered to the level of a half-step divine consciousness. Amidst the desperate roar of the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord, it swallowed him whole, turning this last wisp of remnant soul into nourishment for its growth.

It was a remnant soul, not the complete soul hidden within a soul ring as in the original work. With her powerful control over extreme ice, Huo Yutong skillfully utilized a portion of the Morning Dew Blade's abilities, ultimately using the power of this pseudo-super artifact to defeat the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler, not the Ice Explosion Technique from the original work. No matter how strong the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler's mental power was, it was only at the mortal level. Faced with absolute zero and the power of a pseudo-super artifact, the final result was utter defeat.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, who was just about to engage in a heated battle, froze, pinching her chubby cheeks with her fingers, seemingly still not having recovered from what had just happened. "So powerful?"

The second-ranked ferocious beast on the mainland, the Evil Eye Tyrant, with nearly 800,000 years of cultivation, has come to an end?
"This Ice Dragon King Martial Soul is really..." After racking her brains for a long time to find the right words, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm finally managed to squeeze out five words, "Outrageously powerful."

Huo Yutong's growth rate completely exceeded her imagination. How old is she? If it weren't for the fact that she hadn't obtained her ninth spirit ring before, Huo Yutong would have become a Super Douluo long ago. As Huo Yutong's intelligent spirit ring, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm had a certain understanding of Huo Yutong's current strength, which is why she was so surprised.

Although she didn't want to admit it, the path of growth that the despicable An Zhen arranged for Huo Yutong was much better than her original plan. Now, she had even arranged a divine position for Huo Yutong, and the originally elusive path to godhood had become something that was just around the corner.

Choosing someone to help them become a god in order to gain eternal life is inherently a huge gamble.

Because the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm knew she was completely ignorant of these things. Although she possessed a million years of cultivation, her understanding of many things, even many concepts, was inferior to that of an ordinary 100,000-year-old soul beast. After all, she had accumulated her million years of cultivation through sleep. Originally just a weak ice silkworm, she couldn't receive any advanced information and spent her days only thinking about how to survive. After consuming the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow, she was hunted down by the Ice Emperor. After crossing the ocean, she was captured by those despicable fellows in the Star Dou Great Forest and used as a power bank.

Choosing to take a gamble is a last resort.

After all, it's either a gamble or you'll be exploited to death by those guys in the Star Dou Great Forest.

However, this time she could be said to have won without lifting a finger, since she didn't put in much effort throughout the entire process.

but……

Wearing a loose white nightgown with gold trim, the busty, brainless Tianmeng Ice Silkworm lay sprawled on the floor, looking utterly dejected. Her voluptuous figure, encased in the nightgown, was curled up in a ball. Her long, flowing golden hair was casually draped over her shoulders. Compared to a silkworm, Coco's Tianmeng Ice Silkworm looked more like a decadent golden cat.

Waaaaah, my Bingbing!

"Sister Tianmeng?" Huo Yutong looked at Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.

"I am fine."

Huo Yutong blinked. She knew why Tianmeng always acted this way. Because of Bingdi. But, Tianmeng, that's nonsense. Seriously, is Tianmeng the kind of masochistic personality Anzhen mentioned? Otherwise, why would an ice silkworm fall for its natural enemy? You know, ice silkworms are among the favorite foods of ice jade scorpions.

Huo Yutong didn't continue thinking about it. She had more important things to do now: refine the spiritual essence of the Evil Eye Tyrant and its enormous soul power.

Having absorbed the essence of two ancient "Looking Through Autumn Waters" plants, the spiritual origin of the million-year-old Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, and the trials of the God of Destruction and the God of Emotion, relying on the soul potential enhancement brought by the Ice Dragon King's dragon soul and the divine seed of the God of Emotion, and now with the spiritual origin of the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler, Huo Yutong felt that this time, she might be able to completely elevate her soul to divine consciousness.
