Douluo Continent: The Eye of Truth

Chapter 77 Attribute Guidance, Soul Contract

The gaze of fate fell upon Huo Yuhao.

When Huo Yuhao's fortune was revealed in the eyes of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, it also meant that the fortunes of the two sides came into direct contact and overlapped at this moment.

Although it is said that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion can use the power of fate to influence the fortune of the person it gazes upon.

However, in the Douluo Continent today, soul beasts are weak and humans are powerful.

She and Huo Yuhao are of the same rank, both blessed with good fortune and favored by fate, but the level of their luck is not on the same level.

Even though the Three-Eyed Golden Lion is an imperial auspicious beast, its fortune is actually being subtly suppressed when compared to Huo Yuhao, who is the chosen one.

Who bears the greater destiny: the emperor of the Star Dou Great Forest or the one who will lead the development of human soul masters for ten thousand years?

If they were to meet under normal circumstances, and their energies had not directly interacted, then at most, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion would experience setbacks and feel like it had a bone stuck in its throat after encountering Huo Yuhao, being suppressed at every turn.

However, now that the two sides' destinies have been connected by the power of fate through the Gaze of Destiny, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion has no choice but to forcibly interrupt or cancel it.

Huo Yuhao's vertical pupil, formed by the fusion of the Gold of Life and the second awakening of his martial soul, opened directly.

A golden phantom then appeared behind Huo Yuhao. With the help of the Eye of Truth, the originally obscure and incomprehensible threads of fate were being rapidly analyzed and recorded by Huo Yuhao.

Through his understanding of the power of destiny, Huo Yuhao is also able to observe the mysterious forces of fate and interfere with the power of fortune. However, limited by his own strength, there is not much that Huo Yuhao can actually do.

However, compared to Huo Yuhao, who, due to his stronger luck and the help of the Eye of Truth, entered a wondrous state and felt as if everything was under his control, Huo Yuhao was completely different.

The three-eyed golden lion, an auspicious beast of the emperor, was about to curse.

She never expected that what she originally intended to do with the Gaze of Fate to see the background of the young man in front of her and to see how he could attract her would, unexpectedly lead to the initiation of an attribute-attracting ritual due to the connection of their destinies.

It's important to understand that while the attribute transfer ritual ostensibly only uses the attributes of the Emperor Beast to purify the attributes of the other party, it is actually a sharing and circulation of fortune.

If the other party has a lower level of luck, then the luck carried by the Emperor Beast will be shared with the other party.

If the other party has a higher level of luck, then the luck carried by the Emperor Beast will be dominated by the other party.

To be precise, under the influence of Huo Yuhao's immense power of fortune, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's own power of fortune was compressed, and a significant portion of it was directly absorbed by Huo Yuhao.

This process is the essence of the attribute introduction ritual. As for the fact that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's main attribute is the same as Huo Yuhao's martial soul attribute, it can only be said that this is the arrangement of fate.

A strange halo of light formed ripples, enveloping Huo Yuhao and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

At the same time, the already quiet dense forest was now completely devoid of the presence of Huo Yuhao and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion; only the interplay of light and shadow remained.

Their bodies seemed to become transparent, appearing and disappearing as if they were about to vanish from the world at any moment.

At the same time, due to the fluctuations in the auspicious energy carried by the Emperor Beast, the entire Star Dou Great Forest seemed to begin to stir.

At the core of the Star Dou Great Forest, at the bottom of the Lake of Life, Di Tian, ​​who had transformed into a gigantic black dragon, opened his golden eyes: "Damn it, what happened? How did that Crimson King manage to take care of the auspicious beast?"

At this moment, there were no ferocious beasts beside Di Tian, ​​but the vast life energy in the Lake of Life, under the control of Di Tian who was not good at this, was barely able to be gathered and mobilized to one place, and continuously flowed into the unknown.

However, due to the changes in the fortune of the Star Dou Great Forest, these massive life energies now seem to be becoming restless.

Because the Silver Dragon King's recovery from its injuries had just reached a critical stage, and it lacked life energy, and Di Tian did not trust the other ferocious beasts.

Therefore, Di Tian could not leave the Lake of Life at this time. He had to personally control the life energy to guide it into the alternate dimension where the Silver Dragon King was hiding, so as to help the Silver Dragon King recover. He could not leave, so he could only stay there and worry.

As the attribute transfer ceremony began, Huo Yuhao and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's spiritual power began to make contact with each other, but they had not yet entered the deep core memory exchange stage.

However, due to his second awakening at the Gold level, Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea was far more stable and powerful than usual. Even though he was being eroded by the power of fate, he still retained some control over it.

Through the Eye of Truth, Huo Yuhao could see that, along with the attribute attraction, because they were both of the spiritual attribute, his consciousness and that of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion were beginning to converge.

If they were to allow their consciousnesses to directly contact each other, their memories would inevitably be exposed to each other. Unlike the original owner, Huo Yuhao, as a transmigrator, could not reveal his biggest secret.

Although time travelers are not uncommon in Douluo Continent—Tang San is a time traveler, as is Electrolux—strictly speaking, Wang Dong, Tang Wulin, and others who came from the God Realm can also be considered time travelers.

However, Tang Buddha is still in the divine realm. Although he is not constantly watching, the more people who know his identity, the easier it is for him to be exposed.

Fortunately, Huo Yuhao had already figured out how to deal with this beforehand. He directly activated a magic array that was located deep within his spiritual sea, which he had asked Electrolux to set up in advance when he left Shrek Academy.

A layer of magical runes quickly enveloped Huo Yuhao's soul, then extended into his spirit, and then spread through his spiritual power to the soul of the three-eyed golden lion that it was in contact with.

Due to the influence of the attribute and the pressure from the power of destiny, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion has now entered a state of dazedness and has completely lost consciousness under the cleansing of the power of fate.

Naturally, there was no strength left to resist the effect of this magic.

If there is no resistance, then it means tacit agreement; both parties accept the terms of the contract, and the soul contract is established.

Because of the barrier of the soul contract, the two people's consciousnesses did not directly merge, and the connection and flow of the power of destiny were guaranteed. Therefore, the power of destiny that was constantly impacting Huo Yuhao and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion finally began to calm down.

Through a soul contract, Huo Yuhao and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion achieved a certain degree of spiritual connection.

This is the preparation Huo Yuhao has made, even if it's not needed in the Star Dou Great Forest, it can be used later in the far north, or even in other places.

Given that in the original story, Huo Yuhao was able to play two rounds of mahjong in his spiritual sea at the end, it would eventually come in handy.

Through the brief mental contact, although they had not yet touched upon the important memories deep in each other's hearts, Huo Yuhao and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion each obtained a lot of information contained in the other's mind.

Through the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, Huo Yuhao learned some of the latest information about the Star Dou Great Forest.

With the help of Huo Yuhao, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion also saw a novel and prosperous human world that it had never known before.

In order to conceal the secret in his heart, in addition to activating the soul contract, Huo Yuhao deliberately stuffed in a large amount of redundant information through the control of the Eye of Truth.

For example, the worldview of the human world, the concept of soul guides, and so on, in order to prevent the secrets deep in their hearts from being revealed.

However, the overwhelming amount of information in such a short time left the Three-Eyed Golden Lion completely stunned.

This was the effect Huo Yuhao wanted. As for processing information, it wasn't the first time for Huo Yuhao. After the attribute guidance ended, he and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm worked together to compress the received information, waiting to process it later.

Immediately afterward, Huo Yuhao said within his spiritual sea, "Elder Yi, Brother Tianmeng, let's run!"

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm didn't want to stay a moment longer, but after being washed away by the power of fate, he didn't dare to do anything unnecessary.

At this moment, he looked at Electrox, who was deep in thought, within his sea of ​​consciousness and said, "Elder Electrox, if you won't make a move, then I will!"

Besides retaining its original spiritual essence and remains, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm also retains the ability to teleport instantly, but it can only be used once.

But now that the Imperial Beast is in trouble, who knows if Di Tian will come directly? Now is not the time to hold back our trump cards!

Electrolux nodded and said, "Leave it to me." He had just been wondering how Huo Yuhao could be so prescient and make all the necessary preparations in advance.

However, the immense power of destiny he had just encountered did give him some inspiration. It made sense; the luck and opportunities that Huo Yuhao, this little guy, possessed were indeed top-notch.

There may be those who are born with knowledge; perhaps this is the revelation that fate has given him, or perhaps there are other reasons. Since things are developing in a positive direction, there is no need to dwell on it now.

Electrolux took over Huo Yuhao's body directly. As the gray aura spread, the Eye of Truth disappeared, and in its place, a gray spirit ring rose under Huo Yuhao's feet.

Then a small door opened in front of him, and Electrolux directly controlled Huo Yuhao to step inside.

Beyond the door lay the undead demiplane. As Huo Yuhao entered, the door immediately closed and disappeared, and the lingering aura of death quickly dissipated.

All that was left was the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, lying there blankly, still absorbing the information transmitted by Huo Yuhao.

With the help of the undead demiplane, Electrolux controlled Huo Yuhao's body to cross space once again and arrive at the outside of the Star Dou Great Forest, at a place where Huo Yuhao asked him to leave a mark before leaving.

The battle between the Crimson King and the Shrek Title Douluo also came to an end. To be precise, the Crimson King also discovered that something seemed to be happening in the Star Dou Great Forest, and immediately abandoned the Shrek Title Douluo who was being beaten back step by step.

They quickly returned to their previous location and began searching for traces of the Imperial Beast.

The Shrek Academy titled Douluo breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the Crimson King depart. His battle with the Crimson King had lasted for about half an hour. The Crimson King was really tenacious, but he had done his best.

As for whether Huo Yuhao can escape, or whether he'll be killed by the Crimson King or other soul beasts if he's unlucky, that depends entirely on his fate. Elder Mu probably won't say much more.

After all, he had left him a level-six soul tool that could conceal his aura and was fully charged. If he still couldn't escape, then he could only be considered unlucky.

"Roar! Mythical Beast, how are you?"

The Red King looked anxiously at the auspicious beast lying blankly on the ground, its three heads looking around, unsure of what to do.

Has the auspicious beast gone mad? What should we do?

As the weakest of the three hundred thousand years, the Crimson King could sense the turmoil in the Star Dou Great Forest, but he could not clearly perceive the changes in the fortune of the unseen world, so he had no idea what was happening.

After a while, the auspicious beast shook its head, suppressing the chaotic information in its mind, and said to the Crimson King, "I'm fine, I..."

Just then, a majestic voice reached the ears of the Crimson King and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion: "Crimson King, bring the auspicious beast back."

The owner of this voice was naturally Di Tian. However, after Di Tian hurriedly dealt with the matter of the Lake of Life, Huo Yuhao and the Shrek Academy's titled Douluo had already disappeared without a trace.

However, through his mental power, he discovered that the Emperor Beast seemed to be losing its luck power, even losing a full half of it!

Fortunately, the Imperial Beast itself was unharmed. Although much of its fortune was lost, it did not disappear; it was likely taken away by other creatures.

In this way, although the overall development of the soul beast race in the Star Dou Great Forest will be affected to some extent, if the owner of that half of the power of destiny can be found, things will return to normal.

Even if it is not retrieved, nothing will happen in the short term. As long as it dies of old age, the power of fortune will naturally return. For a soul beast, a hundred years is but a day or two.

As long as the Emperor Beast remains unharmed, the fortune of the Star Dou Great Forest will remain stable, and the tribulations of the 100,000-year-old soul beasts and ferocious beasts will proceed without any unexpected incidents.

Huo Yuhao blocked out the incessant chatter of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm in his mind. Although he had left through the undead demiplane first, the subsequent journey still took a lot of time, and he was still a hundred miles away from Shrek City.

Meanwhile, the Shrek Academy titled Douluo also caught up from the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Why did you get here so fast? I thought something had happened to you." On the only way from Shrek City to Star Dou Great Forest, the Title Douluo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Huo Yuhao return safely.

"Thankfully, the kid is alright. That way, I can explain things to Elder Mu. As for what happened after the Soul Hunt, it's best not to report it. Otherwise, I'll be accused of incompetence."
