Douluo: Dragon King Huo Yuhao Lives Ten Thousand Years Later

Chapter 209 Do you understand the value of being tested during combat?
Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao shook his head with amusement and looked at Gu Yuena, who was preparing things in the center of the room.

"Na'er, how are the preparations going on Xingdou?"

"It's all ready, but wouldn't more than twenty 100,000-year-old soul beasts be too many? And this is just for the Star Dou Great Forest. The Snow Empress should have arranged a similar number of soul beasts for the far north, right?"

Gu Yuena frowned slightly and smiled helplessly, "Even if we have to forcibly tear apart the spatial barrier of the Dragon Tomb to maintain the spatial passage, this number is just too many."

Huo Yuhao shook his head. "We'll probably be inside for quite a while, so we'll need to arrange for more powerful individuals to maintain the spatial passage."

Dragon Tomb is a small plane with its own rules. It can only accommodate Soul Masters with Soul Power below level 50, and they cannot use Soul Power inside. Soul Masters above level 50 can use Soul Power, but they will be expelled from Dragon Tomb.

His and Gu Yuena's strength has far exceeded this range. If they want to enter, the only way is to violently break through the spatial barrier. Just like what Gu Yuena did in the original work—she had the ferocious beasts, including Di Tian, ​​work together to violently create a spatial passage and resist the rules of the small plane.

However, now that Di Tian and other ferocious beasts are basically branch tower masters, their long absence from the Douluo Federation will definitely attract the attention of various forces, and the Spirit Pagoda cannot keep it a secret either.

Unfortunately, the Star Luo Continent is extremely far from the Douluo Continent, and Dragon Valley is a small world. If they were to act secretly, and a group of branch tower masters and their successors were to disappear for several months, the entire Spirit Pagoda would be destroyed. The long-standing conflicts between the various factions might also be ignited.

Being an important official member... that's the downside.

But now things are much better. Ning Fengzhi's suggestion has given them a perfect reason. Even if they take some powerful individuals with them, it won't arouse suspicion.

The master, worried about his apprentice's safety, secretly followed him to Xingluo. What's the problem?
If they spend too much time in Dragon Valley, the Holy Spirit Cult and the Star Luo Federation can take the blame for them. The Spirit Pagoda, which can't find anyone, will have an outlet for its frustration and won't get bogged down in internal strife.

As for what will happen to the Holy Spirit Cult and the Star Luo Federation at that time... they have both entered the game according to each other's wishes, so let the other party bear the consequences.

"Di Tian needs to stay in Douluo Continent to prevent the members of the Spirit Pagoda from rebelling and causing trouble. Because of my relationship with Wu Lin, it's understandable that Xue Di and Xiong Jun secretly left with us in the eyes of other Spirit Pagoda members. As for Wan Yao Wang and the others, you can arrange them. With two Limitless leaders and dozens of 100,000-year-old soul beasts, it should be enough to maintain the spatial passage."

Huo Yuhao said, "Don't think too much about it, everything is still..."

"It's best to be cautious."

Gu Yuena blinked and chuckled, "If you hadn't reached a cultivation level close to that of a Soul Saint, Yuhao, you probably would have prepared for a while longer, right?"

The plan to travel to Dragon Valley began preparations half a year ago. Since then, the Star Dou Great Forest and the Far North have been selecting soul beasts to travel to the Star Luo Continent. The selected soul beasts will be placed in Yu Hao's demiplane, and when the time is right, they will be taken to Star Luo to open the Dragon Tomb.

She originally thought it would take a long time, but unexpectedly, with the arrival of the Star Luo delegation, Yuhao made a decision.

Based on her understanding of Yuhao, this only proves one thing—

"Yuhao, even without those trump cards, once you become a Soul Saint, you'll be able to handle a Limit Douluo, right?"

Gu Yuena's lips curved slightly, her amethyst eyes filled with a knowing smile. "Is it because of the Martial Soul True Body?"

In her view, now that Yuhao has made this decision, it means that he is confident in dealing with most unexpected situations.

After all, he's the Limit Douluo who's best at "surviving".

And strong capabilities are undoubtedly the best guarantee for dealing with all kinds of unexpected events.

Huo Yuhao looked at her and smiled slightly, "In a sense, it's about the same. I'm probably the one who has improved the most in the Soul Saint stage throughout history. Although I'm a bit behind a true Limit Douluo in terms of endurance, at least my combat power is real." The Ice Emperor Martial Soul is a living Martial Soul, and its improvement at the Soul Saint stage is terrifying, allowing him to obtain the power of the Ice Emperor at its peak.

As a ferocious beast that had existed for 400,000 years, Ice Emperor was comparable to a level 98 Super Douluo. However, this was the enhancement that Ice Emperor could provide ten thousand years ago.

The current Ice Emperor Martial Soul possesses the origin of the Water Dragon King at the demigod level. As a soul spirit, Ice Emperor has also been sublimated. Based on his understanding of himself, if he were to use the Ice Emperor True Form now, he could rival a true demigod!

Although due to the difference in soul power between a Soul Saint and a Limit Douluo, even with dual soul cores, he could not fight for long in his Ice Emperor True Form state, having limit combat power and not having it are two different things.

He thought this time would be different from ten thousand years ago, but habits are habits, and he eventually lived up to the image of the Sword God of Shili Slope.

"However, the real reason that prompted me to make this decision actually has nothing to do with strength." Huo Yuhao suddenly changed the subject. "In fact, if possible, I might not have chosen to break through to Soul Saint before the end of this Star Luo trip."

Why bother with a breakthrough? As long as he hasn't reached the Soul Saint level, he has one major guarantee—the assessment of the Divine Throne!

The Eternal Lord gave him a lot of time; before breaking through to the Soul Saint level, he could go to the Divine Throne for assessment at any time.

This is the biggest reason that prompted him to go to Xingluo now.

Do you even understand the value of being assessed during combat?
If you don't understand, take a look at Di Tian and Tang Wulin.

When Di Tian led the ferocious beasts to attack Tang Wulin, the latter used the Sea God's Divine Test and disappeared without a trace, running off to undergo the test.

What use is it if Di Tian is so powerful?

We can only guess.

And he can do something similar now. With just a thought, the Lord of Eternity can pull him into the Eternal Realm, beyond the Three Realms, and even a true god couldn't stop him.

Moreover, because Gu Yuena has an equal contract with him and possesses the blessing of the stars, her power belongs to him under the assessment rules of the Throne of Gods. If necessary, he can even drag her away with him.

If he advances, he can break through to the Soul Saint level, add a Soul Ring to the Ice Emperor Martial Soul, and directly rival the limit.

He can retreat without breaking through; he can retreat to the realm of eternity at any time.

There has never been a safer time than now.

Seeing Gu Yuena looking at him with some confusion, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but stroke her hair. "You'll understand if you need to. Right now, the Holy Spirit Cult is clearly targeting you and me. In other words, they still need me, but if we wait any longer, the situation will be different. So, from both a safety and timing perspective, going to Xingluo now is the best option."

The Holy Spirit Cult approached him hoping someone could restrain that deity, and the fact that the Holy Spirit Cult is still "recruiting" indicates that they still have this need.

In other words, that deity has not yet completed his Nirvana. After all, the Holy Spirit Cult was no match for that deity to begin with. If the deity had recovered, the Holy Spirit Cult might not dare to play any tricks.

With the progress of the deity's rebirth uncertain, the Holy Spirit Cult's invitation was tantamount to an ultimatum to him.

If we continue to wait, no one knows what changes might occur. We can't expect to become a god faster than a deity achieves nirvana… that's not confidence, that's arrogance.
