Reborn as Huo Yuhao, but also in Battle Through the Heavens

Chapter 195 Father and Daughter Reunited

For Venerable Mugu and Venerable Xue.

Whether it was the pills that Gu He detonated or his own resolute self-destruction, they were as faint as fireflies compared to the bright moon.

It couldn't get them to pay any attention at all.

They didn't even bother to stop it, just watching with a hint of amusement and indifference, like watching a trivial interlude before the end of a play.

Elder Xue even shook his head slightly, his tone tinged with sarcasm: "The struggles of ants are always so amusing!"

In his eyes, Furukawa's sacrifice was nothing more than a post-mortem entertainment for them after they had achieved their goal.

However, just as Gu He's fighting spirit reached its peak and was about to explode, *crack! Crack! Crack—!*

A crystal-clear sound, like glass being crushed, exploded out of nowhere above the Yunlan Sect!

In the reflection of Venerable Mugu and Elder Xue’s suddenly contracting pupils, the sky above them appeared as if a shattered mirror had been broken open, revealing a huge hole!

Countless fragments of space, shimmering with silver light, poured down like a torrential rain!

Along with this shattered scene, a figure enveloped in blazing golden flames descended upon the world!

The figure carried unparalleled rage, as if a meteorite had fallen from the sky!

hum!

A flash of silver light silently tore through the viscous, scorching magma.

When Huo Yuhao's divine sense clone, Xiao Yan, and Little Fairy Doctor set foot on Yunlan Mountain.

Huo Yuhao's true form appeared with Zi Yan in the middle layer of the magma world.

As soon as he stepped out of the spatial passage, Huo Yuhao immediately manipulated the surrounding energy, causing the heavy magma around him to disperse automatically.

At the same time, a wisp of pure cold air quietly spread, blocking the heat wave that could have roasted Zi Yan into a piece of dragon jerky.

Zi Yan shook her head curiously. All around her was an endless expanse of dark red, and the immense pressure made her feel suffocated. "Where am I? It feels so stuffy!"

Huo Yuhao explained with a smile, "This is the middle layer of the magma world. If we go deeper, we'll reach the hidden space where the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's cave is located."

Zi Yan nodded, then looked down at the almost solidified, viscous magma below, which emanated a chilling energy. She swallowed unconsciously, her face turning slightly pale.

-

"Should we... swim down from here?"

A flash of light appeared at Huo Yuhao's fingertip, and a pure Dou Qi crystal condensed, with several complex spiritual imprints faintly visible inside.

"That's not necessary," he shook his head and said, "The energy below is too concentrated and violent, which will interfere with the stability of space. It would be difficult to pinpoint the exact location if we directly traversed space."

"We need to stay here for a while and accumulate enough power before we can make the next space jump and gradually head to the bottom of the magma world."

This is a lie!

Huo Yuhao himself was indeed unable to directly jump to the bottom level via spatial leap.

However, with the power of the Guardian Mirror, apart from not being able to directly penetrate the restrictions of the Ancient Emperor's Cave itself, simply reaching the bottom of the magma world is not difficult.

Huo Yuhao chose to stay here at this moment, his real purpose being to set up spatial nodes along the way.

To ensure that once they entered the space of the Ancient Emperor's Cave, in the event of any accident, the Guardian Mirror could tear through space immediately and carry him and Zi Yan away from the danger.

Once the spirit array used as a spatial node here is quietly set up.

Huo Yuhao then grabbed Zi Yan's wrist again, and with a flash of silver light, prepared for the next short-distance spatial jump.

"Ready? Let's continue."

The two figures disappeared from the spot.

After repeating this process four times and setting up four stable spatial nodes, the two finally broke through the extremely viscous magma barrier and reached the bottom of this magma world.

This time, Huo Yuhao did not use the simulation to hide his figure.

The two milky-white flame lizardmen, who possessed the strength of a half-saint, had already sensed their arrival and were respectfully guarding the entrance to the ancient emperor's cave on both sides.

"Please, gentlemen!" One of the semi-saint lizardmen stepped forward, spoke in human language, and bowed respectfully to Huo Yuhao and Zi Yan.

"The Guardian has been waiting for a long time."

Zi Yan instinctively gripped Huo Yuhao's wrist, her palms slightly sweaty, her voice carrying an undisguised sense of unease and nervousness: "Huo Yuhao, we—"

Huo Yuhao gave her a reassuring look: "Don't be afraid, we'll go in together."

The two followed the fire lizardman and stepped into that vast, dark space once again.

However, the space this time was very different from the one Huo Yuhao had ventured into alone last time.

A massive moonstone was suspended above the plaza, its soft yet bright light dispelling most of the darkness and illuminating the ancient space clearly.

During the time Zhu Kun waited for Zi Yan's arrival, he clearly put in a lot of effort, emptying almost everything he could find for decoration from his storage ring—

Various rare minerals, natural treasures, and precious medicinal herbs —

This originally empty and desolate square has been decorated with gaudy colors.

"Looks like you're doing pretty well!"

Upon seeing the middle-aged man with long purple-gold hair standing nervously in the center of the square, Zi Yan felt an overwhelming sense of closeness deep within her blood.

Her eyes instantly reddened, and her lips trembled for a long time. A thousand words were stuck in her chest, but in the end, only this one sentence came out, carrying a hint of resentment and probing.

"Um, no, I—I actually—"

Zhu Kun, who had been full of excitement and anticipation, panicked and didn't know what to do when he heard these words, especially when he sensed the faint resentment in them.

He rubbed his large hands together helplessly, trying to explain incoherently, but he couldn't utter a single complete sentence.

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao gently ruffled Zi Yan's hair and explained softly, "Senior Zhu Kun was worried that you wouldn't like it here. He specially took these out to decorate yesterday, just to make you think this place looks nicer."

"Yes, yes, that's it!"

Zhu Kun felt as if he had been granted a pardon and quickly followed up on the conversation, while giving Huo Yuhao an extremely grateful look.

"That—woman—Zi Yan—" Zhu Kun mustered his courage, intending to call out "daughter" directly.

Seeing Zi Yan's red eyes and her forced composure, he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue and asked cautiously.

"us----?"

Zi Yan took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind. She suddenly stepped forward, stretched out her slightly trembling hand, and grabbed Zhu Kun's broad palm.

A buzzing sound the moment our hands clasped together!

Two dazzling golden rays of light suddenly burst forth from the two of them!

The golden light, as if alive, flowed rapidly along their arms, finally merging perfectly at the point where their palms met, radiating an ancient and noble bloodline pressure!

"Buzz!"

An indescribable, terrifying aura suddenly spread out from the two of them!
