Douluo Continent: Huo Yuhao, the Thief of Heaven

"Alright, I'll take some time to study this spirit ring you absorbed. Don't bother me unless it's absolutely necessary," Benjamin said.

The soul skill of the soul ring that Huo Yuhao absorbed is called Spiritual Avatar, which allows him to create a clone with 80% of his own strength.

Benjamin found it particularly interesting, so he devoted a lot of time and effort to studying it.

Huo Yuhao nodded, then got up and headed back towards Tiandou City.

The divine realm, the divine realm committee.

At the round conference table, the gods discussed how to handle the situation, surrounding a central projection screen.

It was a blonde woman unconscious inside a mechanical device. Her appearance was incredibly beautiful, absolutely no less than that of Na'er when she grew up.

This is an extraordinary woman. She descended upon this plane when Tang San gathered the power of the gods to break through the barrier. Like a red meteor, she rode this machine and crashed onto the God Realm Plain.

"This woman possesses the power of countless small worlds within her body, which is not allowed in principle... but she is indeed very suitable as a material for forging divine artifacts."

The God of Crafts, a first-level god in the divine realm, presented a report to the god-kings in their seats.

After hearing the God of Crafts's account, all the god-kings present were astonished.

The fact that this woman received such praise from the God of Craftsmen indicates that she possesses the aptitude to be forged into a divine artifact.

That's an amazing artifact! It's an amazing artifact!

The Destruction Scepter of the God of Destruction is still damaged, and the artifacts used by the Evil God King Ji Dong are only "borrowed" from his subordinate god, the God of Fire.

Currently, only the Asura God's Asura Blood Sword and the Life Goddess's Life Staff are usable in the entire God Realm. In fact, super artifacts are extremely scarce in the God Realm.

But is it possible? Is it possible?

Abandoning the principles of the divine realm for the sake of combat power, and turning an innocent girl into a divine artifact, would undoubtedly make all god-kings wary.

They still wanted to have a good reputation, but the allure of the super artifact was just too great.

"Thank you for your hard work, Master Craftsman. You may now step down," Tang San said.

"Yes."

The God of Crafts bowed to the God of the Sea, then to the other god-kings, before leaving the scene.

He was just a minor first-level god, and his combat ability was the weakest among all first-level gods. He had no intention of participating in a meeting of god-kings.

After the God of Craftsmen left, the Supreme Council of the God Realm fell into a deathly silence.

No one could make up their mind about this woman, and no one dared to offer their own opinion.

Finally, the goddess of life spoke.

"I believe we shouldn't harm an innocent life just to gain power more quickly."

The other four gazes all turned to them, especially the couple of good and evil, for their foundation in the divine realm was the weakest, and they needed the most divine artifacts to protect them.

But it's hard to say what.

After all, the suggestion from the Goddess of Life took precedence over morality, which made the two of them appear to disregard life.

"Little Green, I'm sorry, but I don't agree with you this time." The God of Destruction shook his head, expressing his opinion.

The couple, one kind and one evil, exchanged a glance and each stood on the side of life and the other on the side of destruction.

However, Tang San, the Sea God, who usually stands against the God of Destruction, chose to remain neutral and abstain from voting this time.

The woman opened her eyes groggily, too weak to open them more than a crack.

A faint murmur escaping his lips—

Jayson, where are you?

Far away on the Douluo Continent, Benjamin, who was researching soul skills in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea, couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.

For some reason, he has been feeling uneasy lately, which seems to have started around the time when Huo Yuhao fused with Ice Emperor.

Inside the banquet hall on the highest level of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Ning Zhiyuan invited a special guest to sit down this time, namely Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger.

"Oh my, Brother Ning, the honey wine that your Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect specializes in is truly unique!" Dai Hao said with a smile, holding a stemmed glass and pretending to be drunk as he raised his glass to Ning Zhiyuan.

Inside was a black, bubbly liquid beverage called cola, which Huo Yuhao had obtained from Ben Jason during his free time.

For high-level Soul Masters, no matter how strong the alcohol content, it cannot make them drunk, since the strongest alcohol content is ethanol.

These Soul Masters, on the contrary, began to pursue the strong taste of alcohol. The cola, whose bubbles would burst in their mouths, brought them a novel taste experience.

"Since Brother Hao likes it, I'll have someone make a few more jars for him. However, this stuff needs to be stored properly, otherwise it will easily lose its flavor."

Ning Zhiyuan raised his glass, smiling broadly as he gestured towards Dai Hao across the table for a toast.

Seated on either side of him were Wu Yun and Cao Zangxin, two titled Douluo from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School.

They all ate their food in silence, as if Dai Hao and Ning Zhiyuan's existence were none of their concern, and that all they needed to do was enjoy their meal.

Dai Hao had no complaints about this, after all, those who could become Title Douluo all had some quirks.

Dai Hao would only feel incredibly nervous if these two didn't focus their attention on the table but on him instead.

"How could I possibly accept that?" Dai Hao said with an apologetic smile.

In reality, he felt like a child during Chinese New Year. He said he didn't want it, but he was being honest and opened his pocket for Ning Zhiyuan to put it in.

"Brother Hao, what are you saying?" Ning Zhiyuan clapped his hands and smiled with narrowed eyes. A servant from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School walked in from outside when he heard the voice.

She walked to Dai Hao's side, took out a ring storage device with exquisite craftsmanship but only a small amount of space inside, and bent down to show it to Dai Hao.

Dai Hao narrowed his eyes. Although the female waitress was not a stunning beauty, she was still incredibly beautiful, and the clothes she wore were also very targeted.

What appears to be merely showing Dai Hao the jar containing cola inside the soul tool is actually a way of showcasing himself.

The sight of those proud breasts revealed made Dai Hao secretly think to himself how incredibly wicked they were.

"You and I were born into the same family of the Seven Eccentrics of the past, so we are of the same blood and lineage. Why be so polite with your younger brother?" Ning Zhiyuan said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, we're of the same blood." Dai Hao couldn't help but laugh in a silly way. Ning Zhiyuan's words undoubtedly shortened the distance between the two of them.

But Dai Hao's expression suddenly changed, transforming from a lecherous middle-aged man back into a ruthless general on the battlefield.

He spoke seriously, "Brother Ning, if you have something to ask of me, please feel free to say so. As long as it's within my ability, I will do my best to help."

Before Ning Zhiyuan could make a move, Wu Yun unconsciously exerted force and broke a plate on the table.

Ning Zhiyuan could only force a smile and say, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. Does Brother Hao have more than one wife or concubine?"

Dai Hao's expression froze slightly, wondering what Ning Zhiyuan meant by those words.
