Douluo: Yu Hao is reborn, this Tang San is different

Chapter 12 The Mysterious Young Man in Black Robe

A soft laugh emanated from the ring. The voice carried a hint of teasing, yet also a hint of mystery. "Yes, it's me. The fact that you haven't made any progress in your cultivation in the past three months is somewhat related to me..."

"How is it related to you? What do you mean?" Hearing this, Huo Yuhao swallowed hard and mustered up the courage to ask, "Who are you? Why are you in my ring?"

After he finished speaking, his hands trembled slightly unconsciously, and his eyes were fixed on the ring.

"Who said this ring is yours? This ring is clearly mine. It doesn't matter who I am; what matters is that I can help you." The voice in the ring grew serious, saying, "This world's cultivation system may seem normal, but it actually has significant flaws. Improving yourself by plundering the abilities of beasts doesn't necessarily mean you can achieve your full potential through self-cultivation. Therefore, it's difficult to fully unleash your true strength in battle."

Huo Yuhao was shocked when he heard this. He had never thought that there would be problems with the cultivation system, but after hearing what the person in front of him said, it made some sense.

"Who... who are you? How do you know so much?" After a brief silence, Huo Yuhao asked this key question clearly.

"It doesn't matter who I am. I won't harm you anyway. Besides, you and I have met a long time ago, and I know your origins. It's just that there are some things that are not convenient to tell you for the time being." The voice continued to come from the ring.

"You know my origins? Then who am I?" Huo Yuhao blinked in confusion, frowned slightly, and asked.

"Strictly speaking, you belong to this world, but it's a world ten thousand years from now. You are now reborn. If you hadn't met me, you would have died in the turbulence of time and space. It is because of my existence that you were able to be reborn and come here."

"I don't belong to this world, but rather come from a higher plane. After arriving in this world, through my understanding of the principles of heaven and earth, I gained a certain understanding of this world's cultivation system and its human history."

"So, now I understand how cultivation works in this world."

"Also, I saw your past memories in the turbulence of time and space. You are a poor child... Alas."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's pupils shrank slightly. He froze for a moment and muttered to himself, "I come from ten thousand years in the future? How...how is this possible?"

"Hahaha." Another loud laugh rang out from the ring, saying, "Little kid, you don't have to think so much right now. I just want to know: do you want to become stronger? Do you want to know about your life experience? Do you want to know about your past?"

"In this life, you don't have the same opportunities as in your previous life. If you are willing to become my disciple, I can teach you a completely new cultivation method. It doesn't require preying on wild beasts, but rather improves your strength through your own understanding and control of the power of heaven and earth."

The voice in the ring spoke slowly.

"Why should I believe you?" Huo Yuhao hesitated. He knew in his heart that there was no free lunch in the world, and it was not a wise move to accept the favor of a mysterious person for no reason, so he asked cautiously.

"You have no choice, do you?" the voice in the ring said, full of temptation, "With your current talent, if you continue to practice according to your original method, you will never become a truly powerful person. But I can give you a chance to change your fate."

"At the same time, I can help you regain your past memories."

"I can also tell you that by helping you, I am also helping myself. I may need your help to return to the world of the past."

After he finished speaking, a thick black mist emanated from the ring and quickly condensed in front of Huo Yuhao. The mist rolled and surged, gradually outlining the outline of a human figure.

The man stood with his hands behind his back, his black hair flowing. A phantom black ruler slung across his back, a colorful flame mark etched on his forehead. Simply standing there, he seemed to possess the entire world beneath his feet. He exuded an aura of supremacy, a sense of dominance. Staring at the black-robed youth before him, Huo Yuhao's eyes widened, shock and astonishment written across his face. His breathing quickened, his chest heaving violently. The powerful aura emanating from the black-robed youth enveloped him like an invisible force, completely enveloping him. Huo Yuhao felt as insignificant as a speck of dust before it.

"What a strong strength!"

Under the impact of this powerful aura, the last trace of doubt in Huo Yuhao's heart disappeared, and he was completely conquered by this aura.

"Okay, I'm willing to trust you. Please teach me your new training method."

Without further hesitation, Huo Yuhao nodded hurriedly.

"Haha, are you willing? If you are, then come and become my disciple." The young man in black robe found a piece of blue stone and crossed his legs, smiling faintly.

"Do you still want to become my disciple?" Huo Yuhao was stunned.

"Nonsense? You want me to teach you everything you know without becoming my disciple? You're dreaming." The young man in black robe stretched and thought, so this is how it felt when a teacher accepted a disciple.

"Okay. In that case, I will take you as my master. I hope you can show some ability to help me become a strong man as soon as possible and help me recover my past memories." After a slight hesitation, Huo Yuhao still respectfully saluted the black-robed young man as a master.

"Get up." Looking at Huo Yuhao kneeling on the ground, the black-robed young man's expression suddenly softened. He waved his hand gently and slowly lifted the former up. The scene when he became his apprentice flooded into his mind like a tide.

At that time, he was also full of confusion and unwillingness, and was considered a waste by almost everyone. The appearance of the teacher was like a ray of light shining into his dark world.

…………

After awakening his spirit, Tang San walked home with mixed feelings. Along the way, various speculations about Huo Yuhao kept popping up in his mind, and his pace unconsciously quickened.

When he pushed open the shabby wooden door, the house was filled with the familiar smell of alcohol.

Tang Hao was sitting in a dim corner, holding a wine jug in his hand. Hearing the noise, he slowly raised his head and his eyes fell on Tang San.

"Where have you been?" Tang Hao's voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of drunkenness. After he finished speaking, he actually put down the jar of wine in his hand, stood up, and staggered towards where Tang San was.

Hearing this, Tang San was slightly stunned. He didn't expect his father to suddenly question him. He immediately calmed down and said respectfully: "Dad, I'm going to participate in the spirit awakening ceremony."

"Soul awakening?" Tang Hao's brows furrowed slightly, a trace of anger flashing across his face. He took a large step forward, the wooden planks creaking under his feet. He raised his right hand high, as if about to slap someone in the face, and shouted, "Who asked you to attend the awakening ceremony? Why didn't you tell me?"
