Douluo Continent: Huo Yuhao obtains the Flame Emperor template

Chapter 107: Wang Dong'er Suffers a Crushing Defeat, Learning Necromancy

Huo Yuhao quickly received feedback about the opportunity reward—a strange fire. He rubbed his chin, and a hint of doubt appeared in his eyes as he considered the opportunity he had just obtained.

"Was the calculation of this opportunity accurate...? It didn't suppress my chances, did it?"

Huo Yuhao clearly remembered the situation of the last opportunity rewarding a different kind of fire. The opportunity of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm + Electrolux rewarded him with the eleventh place on the Different Kind of Fire Ranking, the sub-fire of the Ancient Spirit Cold Fire.

This time, even setting aside the opportunity to obtain various immortal herbs, we came to the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

The opportunities presented by the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King were both incredibly fortunate, but the final reward was the fourteenth place on the Strange Flame Ranking, the sub-flame of the Fallen Heart Flame.

It's not that the Fallen Heart Flame is bad; after all, it's known as a cheat code for cultivation in Battle Through the Heavens, and its effects are quite incredible.

Huo Yuhao's cultivation level is currently in the early stage, and absorbing the Fallen Heart Flame at this time will allow him to fully utilize its effect of accelerating cultivation.

The scene in Battle Through the Heavens where Xiao Huohuo absorbs the Fallen Heart Flame is also memorable. The devouring of the strange flame causes severe aftereffects, and the evil fire erupts, leading to an indescribable encounter with the powerless Medusa Queen.

The scene where Medusa loses her virginity also made countless readers grit their teeth, wishing they could rush into the novel's plot and sternly stop Xiao Huohuo from letting her go!

Taking all these factors into account, Huo Yuhao was not opposed to the Fallen Heart Flame, which ranked fourteenth, but he had some doubts about the mechanism of settling the opportunities.

Huo Yuhao's heart skipped a beat as he pondered, "The mechanism for calculating the chances of this strange fire is not right. This time the chance is even greater, yet I've dropped three places on the Strange Fire Ranking."

"Could it be that the Ice and Fire Dragon King's opportunities are not as good as those of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Elder Yi?"

Although for Huo Yuhao, who had just broken through to the third ring Soul Master level, the effect of the Fallen Heart Flame was simply an unparalleled weapon for cultivation!

However, the underlying mechanisms cannot be ignored, regardless of the perspective from which they are considered.

What if there's a chance to hold a divine assessment someday, but due to the problem with the opportunity settlement mechanism, the reward is the lowest-ranked strange fire that Xiao Huohuo usually disdains to use alone? Wouldn't that be a huge loss?

Therefore, the mechanism problem must be corrected in a timely manner.

Huo Yuhao stared at the "Opportunity Settlement: Fourteenth on the Strange Flame Ranking, Fallen Heart Flame - Sub-Flame" displayed before him, and fell into deep thought.

"Are you sure this doesn't miss out on the opportunity of a Dragon King?"

Huo Yuhao felt that if he only absorbed one of the Ice Dragon King or the Fire Dragon King, the opportunity for Ilex would naturally be comparable, if not better.

However, if the two Dragon Kings are together, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm in the middle will feel slightly inferior.

Soon, another message appeared before Huo Yuhao's eyes.

Please do not question the professionalism of this Emperor Yan template.

"Wow, I thought it was just a cheat code for slacking off, but I didn't expect it to actively boost activity levels."

Huo Yuhao was somewhat surprised. When he first drew the Yan Emperor template, he encouraged him with the words, "Go for it, young man. I look forward to the day when you can go toe-to-toe with the Yan Emperor." After that, he stayed in the background, waiting for the right moment to offer an option, and then he picked something good from Xiao Huohuo.

This kind of proactive bubbling, in addition to the release option, is quite rare.

Perhaps the template thinks that you can doubt whether you will draw a bad template, such as the Tang San template, but you must never doubt the mechanism. This is a very serious issue!

At the same time, a string of information appeared in Huo Yuhao's mind, which was the template explaining to him what professionalism was.

First, a detailed list of opportunities was presented, including the discovery that a series of immortal herbs, such as the Fragrant Silk Fairy Herb, the Eight-Cornered Mysterious Ice Grass, and the Fiery Apricot Blossom, agreed to become soul spirits.

It absorbed the Ice Dragon King's soul and some of the Fire Dragon King's energy.

The final result was that all these opportunities combined amounted to less than the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, Electrolux, and a small half of the Life Gold.

Hmm... Professionalism

Based on this comparison alone, the total opportunities gained from the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire should be greater.

However, since the template emphasizes that its professionalism should not be questioned, it must have a deeper meaning.

So, Huo Yuhao carefully digested this information and understood some of it.

The first opportunity for the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm and Electrolux was because both of them had relatively clear consciousness.

Even with his extremely damaged divine consciousness, nourished by the half-piece of life-gold given to him in advance by the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, it was ensured that his divine consciousness would not dissipate into the world.

In this way, a fragmented divine consciousness that might be resurrected will trigger a series of chain reactions, and the upper limit of its potential value is immeasurable.

Although the combined strength of the two Dragon Kings in their lifetimes might have exceeded that of Electrox and the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.

However, after Huo Yuhao successfully absorbed the energy of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings, the consciousness of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings completely dissipated into the world.

It is far from comparable to the infinite possibilities of Elder Yi's divine consciousness.

After reading this information, Huo Yuhao understood: "So it's because Elder Yi's divine consciousness still has a chance to be resurrected that it was judged to be a greater opportunity."

"Therefore, the rewards from the Strange Flame will rank higher on the Strange Flame Ranking."

If you think about it this way, it is indeed easier to convince him. After all, Huo Yuhao also knows that the "god" that Elder Yi pursues is diametrically opposed to the Douluo God!

If it weren't for the special limitations imposed on Electrox by the plane during his lifetime, he would probably have been even more accomplished in necromancy.

Even if Elder Yi's strength remained at the level he was in life, the Deathly Saint God's Undead Calamity was still an existence that most Douluo Gods could only dream of.

Looking at the strength of the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King before their deaths, as subordinates of the Dragon God who was cleaved in two by the Asura Sword, they should be somewhere between a first-level god and a god-king.

Ultimately, it's impossible for it to exceed the scope of Douluo God.

After thinking it through, Huo Yuhao slowly nodded, inwardly acknowledging the professionalism of the Yan Emperor template: "Hmm, it seems your reward mechanism for opportunities is quite rigorous."

"The next time I settle the opportunities, it would be best to make a list of all the opportunities I have obtained, with annotations, so that they can be directly enlightened and enter my spiritual sea."

The Yan Emperor template pretended not to hear Huo Yuhao's complaints.

Please accept the reward for this extraordinary flame: Fallen Heart Flame Sub-Flame.

With a thought, Huo Yuhao summoned a wisp of transparent, colorless flame within his storage ring.

It was the Fallen Heart Flame that brought Xiao Huohuo such great benefits.

Di Ruiqiu noticed the change in Huo Yuhao's expression, blinked, and asked curiously, "Yuhao, what are you thinking about? This auspicious beast can help you solve it."

Huo Yuhao thought for a moment, came up with an explanation, and pondered for a moment before speaking.

"I was wondering what Senior Silver Dragon King meant when he said before he left, 'Besides me, Huo Yuhao doesn't think much of the other soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest that have taken human form. So, I have high hopes for the auspicious beast.'"

Di Ruiqiu chuckled: "Isn't the big silver dragon's meaning clear? Of course, it's for this auspicious beast to capture you."

"And let Wang Dong'er lose convincingly and be utterly defeated!" Di Ruiqiu clenched her small fists, a glint of light flashing in her red eyes.

With Huo Yuhao not at Shrek Academy this time, Wang Dong'er should finally suffer a setback.

After listening to Di Ruiqiu's words, Huo Yuhao pursed his lips and thought about it seriously. It seemed that it was not convenient to directly absorb the Fallen Heart Flame while he was in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

If he were to experience a sudden outburst of evil energy like Xiao Huohuo, and become unable to control himself, then compared to Medusa, Di Ruiqiu would be in real trouble.

The difference is that Medusa in Battle Through the Heavens was unable to resist at that time, while Di Rachel most likely resisted briefly and then stopped.

Therefore, Huo Yuhao decided that after leaving the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, he would choose a suitable day to absorb the Fallen Heart Flame again.

Seeing Huo Yuhao's constantly changing expression, Di Ruiqiu assumed that he was thinking about the Silver Dragon King's request for her to take him down, so she patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder with a smile.

She said with concern, "But don't worry, Yuhao, this auspicious beast knows that among humans, you are considered a juvenile male."

Di Ruiqiu touched her lips, seemingly enjoying the wonderful prospect of a future litter of auspicious beasts: "So this auspicious beast will raise you well first, and then we will complete the mission entrusted to me by the Great Silver Dragon."

She chuckled, muttering that when a litter of auspicious little beasts were born, Di Tian would probably be overjoyed.

The luck in the Star Dou Great Forest is beyond measure.

Huo Yuhao stared blankly at Rachel's ruby-red, excited eyes, feeling that the conversation was over.

"Huh? Yuhao, what's with that expression?" Di Ruiqiu couldn't understand his look of being completely taken advantage of.

"Oh, I mean you're quite principled, knowing to raise the child first..." Huo Yuhao praised Di Rachel for being very serious.

Di Ruiqiu brandished the Golden Dragon Spear: "Normally, I'm quite serious. But if any special circumstances arise, this auspicious beast will strike first."

She said that the scene of Wang Qiu'er's crushing defeat to Wang Dong'er was still vivid in her mind, and she was determined not to let such a situation repeat itself.

Huo Yuhao smacked his lips: "Okay, whatever makes you happy."

As he spoke, he put the protective dragon scale that the Silver Dragon King had given him around his neck and infused it with a trace of soul power.

At that moment, Xue Di's puzzled voice came.

"Huh? The Silver Dragon King's protective dragon scales can shield your spiritual sea, Yuhao? Why can't I observe the outside world anymore?"

Huo Yuhao was taken aback. He sensed his spiritual sea and, upon closer inspection, quickly detected a layer of aura belonging exclusively to the Silver Dragon King that possessed shielding capabilities.

"Elder Yi, can't you observe the outside world either?" Huo Yuhao asked.

Electrolux's gentle voice rang out: "Hmm, it seems that the Silver Dragon King's protective dragon scale shields your spiritual sea by drawing upon your Ancient Void Dragon bloodline."

"The bloodline of the Ancient Dragon of the Void is of a higher level than any of us. If you, Yuhao, do not remove the shield, I will be unable to observe the outside world."

Huo Yuhao hadn't expected that the dragon scales given by the Silver Dragon King would have this function. Since he didn't have anything to hide from Elder Yi and Xue Di at the moment, he released the shield of his spiritual sea with a thought.

Xue Di appeared outside Huo Yuhao's body, somewhat puzzled, and asked, "Why would that Silver Dragon King senior do this?"

Di Ruiqiu's eyes lit up, and she quickly came up with the answer, saying with a smile.

"I think... it's because Huo Yuhao showed the light sphere to the Great Silver Dragon, and Gu Yuena inside was embarrassed, but Xue Di and you all found out about it."

"So she came up with this trick to allow Huo Yuhao to block your perception of the outside world."

After listening to Di Ruiqiu's words, Xue Di nodded slightly, feeling that her analysis made a lot of sense.

After all, as the supreme ruler of all soul beasts, the Silver Dragon King found Gu Yuena's story of dying for love quite embarrassing, so it's understandable that he would want to avoid being seen by the soul spirits in the future.

Electrolux then formed a hazy humanoid shape outside Huo Yuhao's body.

"Yuhao, I originally intended to wait until your cultivation reached the fifth ring Soul King level before imparting my knowledge to you."

Electrolux said with a smile, "However, the Ancient Void Dragon you absorbed has brought about a leap forward in both your overall physical attributes and your control over spatial abilities."

"The spatial abilities of the Ancient Void Dragon are highly compatible with one of my demi-planes."

Old Master Yi gazed at Huo Yuhao with a kind expression, a hint of expectation in his eyes.

"Yuhao, are you interested in my necromancy?"

If he hadn't seen Huo Gua in the sphere of light, he wouldn't have felt any psychological burden using necromancy after Elder Yi burned his divine consciousness.

Otherwise, Elder Yi was even worried that Huo Yuhao would develop a negative attitude towards necromancy. In his view, Huo Yuhao's character was too upright, and teaching him necromancy would somewhat damage his pure nature.

Huo Yuhao agreed without hesitation, and said with a smile, "Elder Yi, I have always believed that the quality of an ability depends on how and for what purpose the user uses it, not on the ability itself."

Huo Yuhao would be more than willing to accept Electrolux's necromancy.

Old Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said with satisfaction, "Child, I am relieved that you think this way."

"Then I will first teach you this necromancy—the Gate of the Dead."

"Open a door that connects to another world and summon an undead creature to assist in the battle."

After speaking, a misty gray fog rose from Electrox's body, and he extended his right index finger, pointing it into the space in front of him. A flash of gray light disappeared in an instant.

A flash of gray light, extending horizontally and vertically.

The next instant, a pitch-black door appeared in front of Huo Yuhao without warning.

Electrolux transmitted a spell to Huo Yuhao and said, "Regarding the summoning of the Gate of the Dead, Huo Yuhao in that sphere of light has always been trying his luck to summon undead creatures."

"That's only because he didn't receive personal instruction from me. In fact, one can use bloodline as a guide to exert some control over summoned creatures."

Elder Yi demonstrated it to Huo Yuhao and carefully taught him the key points.

Huo Yuhao remembered that in the original novel, when Huo was competing at the Qingse Hotel, the first undead creature he summoned was a pitch-black skeleton.

"Yuhao, why don't you give it a try and see what kind of undead creature you summon on your first try?" Old Yi said gently.

Huo Yuhao nodded and began to chant the incantation that Elder Yi had just taught him in a low voice.

Old Yi reminded him, "Be careful to use bloodline as a catalyst; this will summon even more powerful undead creatures."

Therefore, Huo Yuhao drew upon the bloodline of the Ancient Dragon of the Void.

"I hope I won't summon a little skeleton like Huo Yuhao did..." Huo Yuhao was a little nervous as he tried necromancy for the first time.

Soon, through the dark gate, a dark purple dragon cub poked its head out, looked Huo Yuhao up and down, and shook its head, seemingly not satisfied with Huo Yuhao's cultivation level.

Old Yi was slightly surprised: "Hmm? It's actually a small Nether Dragon. Yuhao, your bloodline connection is comparable to mine back then."
