Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 449 The Second Secret Chamber (Daily Life)

Immediately afterward, Huo Yuhao realized that things were not going well. He couldn't stay in this place any longer, or he wouldn't be able to explain himself when the people from the Body Sect came!

After trying to fit the Conferred God Platform into the storage soul tool but failing, Huo Yuhao jumped back into the large hole he had dug.

Currently, all the power-supplying soul masters in Mingde Hall are busy powering the defensive soul guides to attack the Body Sect people, to the point that even the soul guide lights are not lit, let alone the alarm devices and optical probes.

But at that moment, someone Huo Yuhao had never expected appeared within his mental detection range. The person was not a disciple of the Body Sect, but Lin Jiayi, the director of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

not good.

Huo Yuhao frowned. Why was Lin Jiayi here? Logically speaking, shouldn't this guy also be in Mingde Hall helping to resist the people from the Body Sect?

Huo Yuhao's mind raced, and he quickly came up with a possibility—when he first entered Mingde Hall, he had subconsciously mentioned to Xuan Xinwen that Mingde Hall was not safe because it was built underground. If a problem occurred, it could lead to oxygen deficiency and the inability to evacuate people quickly.

Huo Yuhao wasn't sure if Lin Jiayi's arrival was related to his subconscious words, but this wasn't the time to dwell on it. If Lin Jiayi moved the Conferred God Platform and the 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo away at this moment, then the Body Sect's trip would have been in vain.

Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao, who originally planned to leave the Conferred God Platform here and wait for the Body Sect to retrieve it, could only quickly cast spells in the void, drawing out runes at an extremely fast speed.

Thanks to the intense training over the past six months, Huo Yuhao's ability to open the Gate of the Dead, which originally required more than thirty seconds of chanting, has now been reduced to just three seconds!

The Gate of the Dead opened a crack, and Huo Yuhao threw the Conferred God Platform into it, then closed it. While Lin Jiayi was still busy getting the card to open the gate, he reactivated the Ice Emperor's Claw and started digging wildly in a random direction.

This time, Huo Yuhao was unlucky to run into such an unlucky thing as a 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo. Hopefully, he won't encounter any more trouble if he continues digging.

Just as Huo Yuhao finished compacting the soil behind him and quickly dug about fifty meters into the earth, Lin Jiayi finally opened the door. The moment he saw the 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo disappear, he cried out in alarm.

Just as Huo Yuhao thought Lin Jiayi would forcibly dig through the crack in the wall and grab him, causing him to increase his digging speed again, another figure appeared within Huo Yuhao's mental detection range.

"Hand over the embryo of a 100,000-year-old soul beast!"

A burly man in black extended his right arm, which instantly grew ten times larger, unleashing a violent force that slammed into the stunned Lin Jiayi.

"You bastard, how dare you turn the tables on me!"

Lin Jiayi's invincible protective shield appeared instantly, only to be shattered by the man's punch. Looking at the eight spirit rings at the man's feet, Lin Jiayi's eyes revealed shock.

Although this man was only an eight-ring Soul Douluo, he actually shattered one of his level-five invincible shields with a single punch!

It's important to know that a level 5 invincible shield can withstand the full-force attack of an average eight-ring Soul Douluo for three seconds!

"What do you mean by 'turning the tables'? Hand over the embryo of the 100,000-year-old soul beast!"

The man in black's tone grew increasingly hostile, and he unleashed a deadly attack, sending Lin Jiayi flying with another punch, crashing into the wall of the secret room.

Good day, Right Hand Bro!

Huo Yuhao silently gave the other person a thumbs up, but he had no interest in meeting them at the moment. He just randomly picked a direction and started digging. Seeing that his right hand and Lin Jiayi's brains were almost popping out of their sockets, Huo Yuhao's hands moved even faster.

Since he's already gotten his hands on the 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo, it doesn't hurt for him to focus his attention on these two people. Surely the Sun Moon Empire's underground can't be full of secret chambers, right?

While thinking this, Huo Yuhao kept digging and then felt that familiar touch on the Ice Emperor's Claw once again.

"Click—"

Huo Yuhao was immediately startled. Are all the people of your Sun Moon Empire like rats? You hide everything underground?

Huo Yuhao cautiously emerged from the ground and discovered that this seemed to be another laboratory. Turning his head, he saw a large, dark metal door silently open.

At this moment, the laboratory was deserted. Judging from the lingering aura, many of the Mingde Hall experts who rushed outside must have left from here.

Huo Yuhao's mental probe no longer pointed at his backside, but instead popped out again to scan everything in the laboratory without any blind spots. He then gasped in shock, took several steps back in surprise, and almost fell to the ground.

Before him stood a gigantic humanoid metal body, a full fifteen meters tall. The massive body was entirely cast from metal, and although it looked somewhat rudimentary, the overall structure was complete. The chest area was open, and there seemed to be a chair or something similar inside.

On this enormous metal figure, he discovered thousands of core magic arrays. Moreover, the sophistication of many of these core magic arrays was something he had never heard of before.

Even more terrifying was the seemingly terrifying energy contained within this enormous metal figure. This energy was inherent to the metal itself. But for the moment, how could he possibly understand it?

However, even just the few parts that Huo Yuhao could understand were enough to shock him.

The multi-interface parallel soul power import core of the turbine, the Tarantula-IV main control system, and the parallel integrated operating cabin—each of these technologies is a closely guarded secret of the Mingde Hall. Huo Yuhao knew nothing about them except that he had heard of their names and knew a little about their appearance.

And now, all these cutting-edge technologies have been gathered and integrated into a single soul tool?

Around the metal figure were platforms at varying heights, clearly cast for its creation. Not far from Huo Yuhao was the lowest metal platform. At this moment, only this platform still had some connection to the metal figure.

With a flash, Huo Yuhao arrived in front of the platform, where something that had just appeared in his mental detection came into view.

It was a piece larger than a palm, resembling a breastplate. It was surrounded by silver-white decorations, beautifully engraved with the shape of the core magic array, but at its very center was a huge gemstone shaped like a convex lens.

The gemstone itself is pale blue with six shimmering star-like lines. Its extraordinary brilliance is mesmerizing.

My God.

Huo Yuhao was shocked again. This piece of pure natural star sapphire was probably more valuable than a 100,000-year-old soul bone. Huo Yuhao immediately realized that he might have to go to the far north again.
