Douluo Continent: The Peerless Hunting Heavenly Lord, Huo Yuhao!

Chapter 96 Huo Yuhao learns of the Holy Grail War, Dragon Transformation Technique No. 1?

Huo Yuhao looked at Gu Yue, who was still in a daze beside him, and asked with some anticipation, "How is it? How effective is this Transformation Pill?"

Gu Yue's lips twitched slightly, the tip of her tongue still lingering with that complex mix of flavors, an extreme torment that could overturn her life.

That wasn't the aftertaste of a miraculous medicine at all; it was torture on a spiritual level.

But seeing Huo Yuhao's sincere eyes, his earnest anticipation of feedback, and his preparation to improve the soul beast cultivation system based on it, Gu Yue couldn't bring herself to say a single word of complaint.

After a moment of silence, Gu Yue forced herself to say something that was completely against her will: "...Very good."

A hint of doubt flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes, and he narrowed them slightly: "Really?"

"Really." Gu Yue nodded emphatically, quickly concealing the complex emotions in her eyes. She looked up at Huo Yuhao, her tone carrying a hint of cautious pleading, "Since it's useless to you, can I have this pill?"

"Of course." Huo Yuhao waved his hand dismissively, his expression open and gentle. "It was specially reserved for you, so you can keep it."

Upon receiving an affirmative answer, a faint warmth appeared in Gu Yue's eyes. After a moment of silence, she changed the subject and said something that instantly stunned Huo Yuhao.

"Yuhao, regarding 'immortality,' I think... I've already embarked on this path."

Huo Yuhao: "???"

His pupils dilated slightly, his brain raced, and his mind was filled with disbelief.

Wasn't the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Dragons of the Heavenly Abyss already dead? How did you manage to get there?

Before he could ask any further questions, Gu Yue softly answered all his doubts, also laying a huge foreshadowing:

“I came into contact with a clandestine organization that calls itself the Tavern.”

Huo Yuhao was completely dumbfounded.

Tavern?

Wait... Could this be a gathering place for the Masked Fool, under Aha's command?

Could it be that Douluo Continent has also been targeted by these people who enjoy themselves?

Before Huo Yuhao could sort out his thoughts, Gu Yue continued, "The person who extended the invitation to me is named Sambo. He handed me a ticket to the Holy Grail War, saying it was a game exclusively for top geniuses."

"And the gift this game offers is the complete introductory method to the path of 'immortality.'"

Huo Yuhao was completely at peace at this moment, and was even too lazy to be surprised.

Damn it, he doesn't seem surprised anymore...

Are you serious about this Holy Grail War invitation? Would Old Sambo really do that?

This is completely out of character for The Fool.

"but……"

Gu Yue's cheeks flushed slightly, and her tone was tinged with awkwardness and helplessness as she continued to recount the key details:

"He said that if you want to fully understand the basics of immortality and complete the final transformation, it is best to use a strand of your hair or a drop of your blood as an experimental medium to complete the final anchoring."

Huo Yuhao: "???"

Can you achieve immortality by using my hair and blood?

At this moment, Huo Yuhao felt an intense sense of familiarity surge into his mind. Fragments of images seemed to flash through his mind, but no matter how hard he tried to recall them, he couldn't remember the corresponding information.

I only vaguely felt that this approach was absurd and bizarre, yet strangely familiar.

He frowned slightly, inwardly wondering: Is this the cultivation method for the Immortal Path? The more he listened, the more sinister it sounded.

Inside the Night Raven mask, Huo Xiaohei, who had been watching the whole thing from the sidelines, almost burst out laughing.

That was close! We almost gave ourselves away!

He suppressed his laughter, pretending to know nothing, and silently watched the show.

That feeling of watching your own character completely bewildered, unaware that you've tricked them, is the ultimate pleasure!!

"Since you need a medium, then try it in front of me. Let me see what the so-called immortal transformation is all about."

He planned to dismantle this cultivation system on the spot, to find out the tavern and the Masked Fool's true intentions regarding the path to immortality, so as to know himself and his enemy.

"Ah."

Gu Yue nodded solemnly, no longer hesitating.

The next instant, a vast and boundless invisible power erupted from her body.

Unlike any other energy, such as soul power or spiritual power, this power is vast and boundless, carrying a rhythm that transcends the Douluo Continent—it is truly the power of an "immortal" destiny!

Huo Yuhao was very familiar with this.

He himself controls the dual destinies of "hunting" and "pleasure," and his perception of the energy of these destinies far surpasses that of anyone else in the world.

The "immortal" destiny power of the ancient moon is powerful, profound, and ever-renewing, possessing the quality of eternal existence.

If the destiny of "abundance" is about breeding, multiplying, and reviving to the fullest extent, then the destiny of "immortality" is about being eternal and everlasting, a level even higher.

Buzz €€€€

Gu Yue slashed his own palm, and brilliant, pure golden blood slowly oozed out.

Golden dragon blood dripped down, precisely staining a strand of Huo Yuhao's black hair.

The endless power of immortal destiny intertwined and swirled rapidly in mid-air, condensing and compressing.

In the blink of an eye, a giant cocoon made entirely of gold slowly took shape, completely enveloping and sealing off all auras.

Just as the golden cocoon took shape, Huo Yuhao looked at the familiar ritual process before him, then met Gu Yue's completely transformed eyes...

His once clear and gentle eyes have completely transformed into long, sharp, golden vertical pupils resembling those of a dragon, exuding a majestic dragon aura!

The long-buried memories exploded in an instant, Huo Yuhao's pupils shrank sharply, and he cursed inwardly!

This is not some kind of immortal destiny transformation at all!!

This is the wondrous method of dragon transformation for the descendants of the Vidyadhara!

What immortality and what inheritance? It's all just a sham!

That bastard Sangbo fooled Gu Yue with the Dragon Transformation Technique, even deceiving her into believing it was an immortal destiny!

Huo Yuhao's composure completely collapsed; his gentle facade nearly crumbled, and he inwardly screamed:

I'm still alive! I'm still standing here safely!!

Dude! What are you trying to achieve by turning a strand of my hair into a dragon?!

In an instant, he felt a deep resentment towards Sambo, the masked fool from the Pleasure Tavern, whom he had never met before.

well.

very good!

Sambo the Masked Fool, right?

You're just bored and have nothing better to do, right?

So you're just here to run around Douluo Continent, fooling your own people and creating absurd amusement, right?

You better not let me catch you!

If I ever manage to catch them in the act, I'll definitely have a serious talk with Aha!

……

Who else?

Huo Xiaohei looked at Gu Yue's room at the Star Emperor Hotel, a smile playing on his lips.

The Star Emperor Hotel, Gu Yue's private room.

The warm yellow light flickered, and the room was quiet and empty.

Gu Yue sat upright on the bed, his fingertips rapidly swiping across the jade screen that appeared in front of him, issuing commands in the exclusive group chat within the Star Dou Great Forest.

The group name was clearly "Starry Sky Loves One Family of Beasts".

Gu Yue: What just happened is something you all should know, but keep it a secret and do not spread it outside.

"Black Dragon Heaven: Understood! I would never dare disobey the Lord's command!"

Brigitte: Understood.

"Bear: Understood."

"..."

All the spirit beasts responded respectfully.

The moment the message was sent, the space in the corner of the room distorted slightly, and a wisp of black mist quietly dissipated.

Gu Yue's eyes turned cold, and she instantly stood up, her temperament changing from gentle and graceful to sharp and ruthless. She shouted in a deep voice, "Who!"

"Don't be nervous, friend, Old Sambo means no harm at all."

A light, lazy laugh rang out, and a young man with blue hair and green eyes slowly walked out of the black mist. It was Huo Xiaohei, who had transformed into Sangbo.

He was casual in demeanor, with a sly smile.

"I am Sambo. The Masked Fool, Sambo."
