Douluo Continent: Reborn as Yuhao, they all have ulterior motives.

Chapter 421 You were born to inherit my position as the God of Emotions!

Ultimately, however, this is because Huo Yuhao's attitude changed after his rebirth.

If he had been almost unburdened in his previous life, he wouldn't care about these things. Anyway, he has the essence of the Seven Deadly Sins in his body. At worst, he can just merge with them and explode with the entire God Realm like in his previous life.

But this life is different. He is surrounded by many people he can't let go of, which motivates him to do everything he can to survive while defeating his enemies.

Once a person has something to worry about, they will inevitably start to hesitate and consider the consequences before making decisions. Of course, Huo Yuhao did not dislike this feeling.

"Are all young people these days this crazy? Or am I just getting old?"

As if sensing Huo Yuhao's unwavering determination, Rong Nianbing shook her head and sighed, looking at Huo Yuhao with a serious expression.

"Let me ask you this: you should know very well what you're doing, right?"

Huo Yuhao nodded: "I know."

Rong Nianbing paused for a moment, then, as if giving up, raised her hand and scratched her hair.

"Since that's the case, then go ahead. As long as you live in this world, it's inevitable to make mistakes. If you insist on going your own way, as a complete stranger, it's really not convenient for me to stop you."

"Although I may not be able to help much during the process, I can still rescue you if things get really bad."

"Thank you, senior."

Huo Yuhao couldn't help but laugh: "If I succeed this time, I will tell you about the Emotional Godhood."

Unexpectedly, Rong Nianbing did not show any joy after listening; instead, she became even more worried.

After stammering for a long time, he finally spoke hesitantly.

"I don't know if you have similar situations here, but in my original world, those who say these things beforehand often don't end up with good results."

"."

Fortunately, Rong Nianbing didn't pay much attention to this. He simply took two steps back and cleared the way to the abyss.

boom--!!!

The bright purple thunderstorm illuminated Huo Yuhao's eyes, dispelling the last trace of confusion in them.

He took a deep breath, soared into the air under their gaze, and sped off ahead.

The energy fluctuations at the center of the pit were too intense, severely affecting the stability of the surrounding space and cutting off Huo Yuhao's possibility of traversing space.

The only way to get close is by flying.

However, the difficulties did not end there. As soon as Huo Yuhao arrived at the edge of the pit, terrifying pressure came from all directions, frantically squeezing his Eternal Frozen Domain and causing its coverage area to shrink drastically.

From Gu Yuena and Rong Nianbing's perspective, the deep purple energy seemed to have come alive, wriggling and vying to devour the emerald green light that had entered it.

In just a few seconds, Huo Yuhao's Eternal Freeze Domain was suppressed to a range of two or three meters around his body. Even at this level, the suppression only slowed down slightly, and the domain's coverage area continued to decrease rapidly.

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao did not hesitate at all, immediately put on his trench coat and activated his Ice Emperor Martial Soul.

As exquisitely beautiful dragon scales emerged from the surface of his trench coat, he simply shut down the Eternal Freeze Domain, leaving himself exposed to the air filled with high-concentration energy.

Then, they were completely unharmed.

It was as if the destructive power surrounding him was no longer severing all life force. Huo Yuhao flew leisurely towards the Ancestor of the Dragons as if he were in an empty place.

As the distance to the skeleton gradually approached, the soul imprisoned within it seemed to finally notice this unexpected guest. Looking through the empty eye sockets of the skull, a somewhat illusory face, filled with distortion and madness, appeared from the blazing purple flames.

Huo Yuhao immediately became extremely vigilant, guarding against the opponent's attack, but the next second, a painful groan rang in his mind.

"Leave this place."

The moment the words left his mouth, his face contorted, as if he had suddenly become a different person, and his eyes filled with an indescribable hope as he looked at him.

"Please, please kill me!"

Seeing the other person's seemingly schizophrenic appearance, Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment, but then he realized what was going on.

Just as Gu Yuena said, the power of destruction could not completely destroy the last wisp of the soul of the Ancestral Dragon, but it brought him unimaginable pain at all times.

After hundreds of thousands of years of torment, even death has become an unattainable luxury.

No.

To be more precise, the progenitor of the dragons didn't want to die.

Contrary to what Gu Yuena said, he was not unable to control the destructive power within his body; on the contrary, he was always in control.

In order to keep that power, which could easily destroy the continent, contained in the center of the mountain range, he had been enduring the pain brought by the destructive power and struggling to support it, to the point that his mind was damaged during that long period of torment.

The seemingly contradictory words of subconsciously driving away Huo Yuhao and yearning for eternal peace and the liberation he longed for are actually just the thoughts of the Ancestor of Dragons.

He had long since fallen into a state of madness from which he could no longer extricate himself; his chaotic mind could no longer distinguish between redemption and liberation.

"OK."

From the silence, Huo Yuhao met the gaze of that face, a slight smile playing on his lips as he nodded.

"As you requested, you gave me your power, and I granted you liberation."

Like a pact between a god granting wishes and a believer, he offered his own solution.

He absorbs and bears this destructive power, gaining unparalleled strength while also taking the place of the other party in enduring eternal suffering, granting them the release of death.

It's unclear whether the Ancestor of the Dragons understood or not, but he actually allowed Huo Yuhao to come to him. Just when Huo Yuhao thought that the other party had acquiesced to his suggestion, the voice rang in his mind again.

"Your strength is very weak. You will die if you bear my power."

As he said this, the guy seemed to regain some of his rationality. Although his voice was full of anticipation for liberation, it still revealed the necessary calmness.

"It's okay. Whether we can withstand it or not, we have to try first."

Huo Yuhao smiled and nodded in greeting to the face so close to his eyes.

"I almost forgot I don't know your name. My name is Huo Yuhao."

"...Erosion."

"I understand, Ash."

Huo Yuhao nodded and extended his left hand.

"Time is of the essence, why don't we start now?"

The face didn't speak, but just stared at Huo Yuhao for a moment before speaking again.

"As you wish."

The instant he finished speaking, a deep bolt of lightning, filled with destructive power, flashed through the blazing flames in his eye sockets and landed precisely on his palm.

Unlike the previous version that emanated from the torso and struck the ground, this lightning bolt, though much thinner, was far more powerful and contained more energy under Erosion's deliberate control.

Almost the instant of contact, Huo Yuhao felt a sharp pain that nearly caused him to faint.

Immediately afterwards, irresistible destruction befell him.

It was as if he had suddenly exploded from the inside out. With flesh and scales flying out, his hand was instantly reduced to a pale skeleton held together by fascia.

Like those undead creatures of the skeleton type, they are exceptionally ferocious and terrifying.

Faced with this immense power, his physical attributes and defensive capabilities, which far exceeded his cultivation level, were as fragile as paper, and were almost completely destroyed, leaving no trace of life.

But that wasn't the end of it. After easily destroying his hand, the destructive force then spread to his arm, until his forearm was also blown to pieces, leaving only bones, before everything finally came to an end.

Seeing this from afar, Gu Yuena's pupils constricted, and she felt as if the blood in her body had stopped flowing.

Even Rong Nianbing, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but frown, as if she were experiencing the pain herself, and her heart clenched unconsciously.

The gap is too big.

Seemingly having drawn the same conclusion from this scene, Ember gave a silent reminder.

"Go back. Although your physical condition is not bad, as you can see, this is only a fraction of my power. You have no chance of succeeding..."

Before he could finish speaking, he felt a breathtaking cyan-green light suddenly erupt from Huo Yuhao's body. Although the color was somewhat similar to that of the previous Eternal Frozen Domain, it was full of life energy.

Then, a miraculous scene unfolded.

Under the generous nourishment of that life energy, Huo Yuhao's hand recovered rapidly, as if time had reversed.

Crimson flesh appeared on the pale soil, multiplying and spreading. In just a few seconds, his hand was completely restored, showing no signs of severe injury.

"It seems there is still a chance."

Huo Yuhao was panting, and although he spoke in a joking tone, his voice sounded trembling.

Clearly, the pain of flesh and blood disintegrating was not pleasant.

In fact, if he hadn't fused with the divine soul bone bestowed upon him by the Snow Emperor, his arm bones would have been completely annihilated by that attack.

Shi Jin fell silent, staring at Huo Yuhao with a strange look in his eyes, as if in disbelief.

"Are you serious?"

He never expected that Huo Yuhao would try to bear his power in this way.

His powerful regenerative abilities certainly prevented him from losing his life while absorbing destructive power, but the problem was that the pain during the process was real, and no one could withstand their body being tormented like that for so long.

"Furthermore, no part of your body can withstand my power. Even if your bones can remain intact for a while, they will inevitably be damaged over time."

Huo Yuhao remained silent. He had also thought of this problem and was at a loss for what to do.

Actually, the problem he faces now is somewhat similar to the one he encountered when he absorbed the Ice-Fire Dragon Pill: his own bones are not strong enough to fully bear the power.

At that time, he guided two forces to create two new bones in his rib area, which eventually formed a pair of ice and fire wings.

But the problem is, things are different now!

The reason he was able to absorb it before was because ice and fire are opposing attributes. Their mutual restraint can maintain a delicate balance, greatly reducing the damage of these two forces to his body.

What about the power of destruction? Not only is it more destructive, but he currently doesn't have a balancing attribute that can match it. Once he starts absorbing it, his body might collapse before it's finished.

The Gold of Life can indeed heal his injuries, but even if the healing is fast, it still takes time. If the safety threshold is exceeded, the healing speed cannot keep up with the collapse speed, and he will still lose his life.

Even if he were to succeed by sheer luck and absorb it like the Ice-Fire Dragon Pill, condensing a soul bone with destructive attributes, it wouldn't mean he could rest easy.

Just like how Huo Yuhao, even after fully absorbing the power of the Ice-Fire Dragon Pill, still had to find ways to maintain the balance of ice and fire in his body, this thing could easily cause a backlash if he wasn't careful, bringing huge effects to his body.

In comparison, the backlash from the ultimate ice might at most cause his body to grow cold uncontrollably, but the power of destruction is different. Once it backfires, it will not only harm Huo Yuhao, but also bring devastating damage to the life around him.

It looks exactly like a human-shaped radiation source.

Just then, Xue Di seemed to see his concerns and spoke her own thoughts from her mind.

"We do have attributes that are the opposite of the power of destruction; there is one in the undead plane who can help you."

Huo Yuhao naturally knew who she was talking about and couldn't help but shake his head.

"You mean Ah Yin? I thought of her before, but her cultivation is too weak. It's impossible for her to balance this destructive power."

Although she is only a second-level deity, the powerful life force that Ah Yin controls is itself a manifestation of the power of creation.

In addition, since she was originally a soul beast like Niu Tian Titan, she could merge with Huo Yuhao in the form of a soul spirit, making it easy to achieve a similar effect of ice and fire balance in the process.

But the problem lies in the fact that she is only a second-level deity.

This level of cultivation might be considered top-tier in the lower realms, but compared to the former God-King, the ancestor of the sub-dragons, the difference is more than just a little.

"But you still have the Sword of Life, don't you?"

Xue Di gently reminded, "If we infuse the life energy contained within into A Yin's body, we might be able to achieve a balance with it. Moreover, we don't necessarily have to absorb it all. Let's absorb a portion of it in this way for now and help control the remains of the Ancestral Dragon. We can continue to try when we have the opportunity in the future."

Huo Yuhao pondered for a moment according to Xue Di's plan, and his eyes lit up: "It is indeed worth a try."

Without hesitation, Huo Yuhao didn't care what would happen if Rong Nianbing saw him. He immediately opened the portal to the plane of the dead and summoned Ah Yin from it.

"Master, you wanted to see me."

Emerging from the portal, Ah Yin was initially startled by her surroundings before belatedly greeting Huo Yuhao.

"Um."

Huo Yuhao nodded, and under Rong Nianbing's astonished gaze, quickly explained the situation before revealing his purpose.

"I believe you are aware of the situation. To put it simply, I need you to become my spirit to help me balance that destructive power. Of course, I will also support you with the Sword of Life in the process."

Ah Yin didn't hesitate and nodded in agreement after understanding the situation.

Let alone becoming a spirit, under the effect of the master-servant contract, even if Huo Yuhao asked her to sacrifice herself on the spot, she wouldn't even flinch.

"That's... Tang San's mother? How come she's with Huo Yuhao?"

Upon seeing what was happening from a distance, Rong Nianbing couldn't help but feel a sense of astonishment.

No, does Tang Hao know about this?

Thinking about the irreconcilable conflict between Huo Yuhao and Tang San, a strange idea popped into his mind.

Could it be that this kid did this because he wanted to be Tang San's stepfather?

No wonder, no wonder.

Although he sometimes disliked Tang San, putting himself in Tang San's shoes, he knew that anyone would find it difficult to handle such a situation.

On another note, isn't his girlfriend the silver-haired girl next to him?

Could this guy be like me, with more than one wife?

Rong Nianbing glanced subconsciously at Gu Yuena, who was standing silently not far away, and his expression became increasingly strange.

Good lad! No wonder you have the aura of my emotional godhood on you, so we're the same kind of people!

I knew I hadn't misjudged you; you're born to inherit my position as the god of emotions!

With this in mind, Rong Nianbing hesitated for a moment, but decided to wait and see for the time being.

Although he didn't think Huo Yuhao had a chance of succeeding, it seemed that the kid had prepared a backup plan. In that case, it wouldn't be too late to let him try again.

And so, under the pressure of the surrounding destructive power, after forcibly setting up the array for the soul ritual, Huo Yuhao's formal attempt began.

it has started.
