Douluo Continent: The Rebirth of Huo Yuhao

Chapter 94 Gift

"In the early days of humanity, before the emergence of powerful Soul Masters, human strength was insufficient to contend with the mighty Soul Beasts. Soul Masters who reached their cultivation bottlenecks were almost unable to obtain Soul Rings that were over a hundred years old, and white Soul Rings were the dominant color among human Soul Masters."

"But one day, a group of powerful Soul Masters appeared almost simultaneously across the continent, possessing dazzling yellow and purple Soul Rings. Under their leadership, humanity gradually became able to organize forces to hunt down even more powerful Soul Beasts and obtain even more powerful Soul Rings."

"Humanity is slowly rising."

"Finally, the blood-red 100,000-year spirit rings on the Title Douluos signify that humanity has officially become the master of this world."

"It is said that the soul masters who possessed hundred-year and thousand-year soul rings absorbed the soul rings of the Moonlight Horse, and the high-age soul rings greatly increased their strength."

"The reason why moon horses have rarely appeared in the world in the last 10,000 years may be that they feel that humans are powerful enough and no longer need their help."

"It is precisely because of the Moonlight Horse's various characteristics that many Soul Masters believe that the Moonlight Horse may not be a Soul Beast, but rather a gift from the world to the human race."

Huo Yuhao recounted the legend of the Moonlight Horse that Tianmeng Ice Silkworm had told him to the two of them in one breath.

The reason Tianmeng knew this secret was because the Moonlight Horse, a soul beast, was so mysterious that even the core members of the Star Dou Great Forest couldn't figure out its origins.

Ji Juechen and Xu Tianzhen were both shocked after hearing the legend. They never expected that the rise of mankind was related to the beautiful horse in mid-air.

"So that's how it is."

Xu Tianzhen sighed.

"It's just a legend, and I can't guarantee its authenticity. In short, it's enough that we know about it."

Huo Yuhao added at the end.

"So what should we do? Should we still try to get its spirit ring?"

Xu Tianzhen suddenly asked.

She was conflicted; she was reluctant to take action against a spirit beast like the Moonlight Horse.

"this……"

Even the usually decisive Ji Juechen was hesitant at this moment. If the Moonlight Horse was only beautiful, Ji Juechen would not waver in the slightest.

However, the legendary role of the Moonlight Horse in advancing human civilization posed a challenge for him.

As a student of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, although he did not know how to make soul tools, he admired the great figures who had made progress in human civilization most through his exposure to them.

Because this is the prevailing trend throughout the entire Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

"Forget it, let's go find other soul beasts. Since their race rarely appears in the world, we shouldn't kill them anymore."

After pondering for a while, Ji Juechen finally shook his head and rejected the option of using the Moonlight Horse as a soul ring.

Huo Yuhao naturally did not express any objection to Ji Juechen's choice.

After admiring the beautiful moonlight horse for a while, the three decided to return to the camp to rest.

They still need to find two suitable soul beasts.

Just as the three of them were taking steps to return, the Moonlight Horse suddenly fell from mid-air and headed towards them.

The three immediately became alert upon sensing Moonlight Horse's movement.

Although they felt a fondness for the Moonlight Horse because of the legend, it was just a legend after all. They were in a dangerous area where spirit beasts gathered, and they needed to be vigilant at all times.

The Moonlight Horse showed no aggression whatsoever, and simply walked slowly toward them.

As the Moonlight Horse approached, Huo Yuhao and his two companions became increasingly vigilant, but they showed no intention of making the first move.

Finally, the Moonlight Horse stopped in front of the three of them.

After carefully examining the three of them, it focused its gaze on Ji Juechen.

Ji Juechen was confused and dared not make a move.

Moonlight Horse just stared at him, motionless.

After a long stalemate, Ji Juechen looked to Huo Yuhao for help. What should they do?

But not only Huo Yuhao, even Tianmeng didn't know what was going on.

It was a spirit beast. Although it had heard of the legend of the Moonlight Horse, the Moonlight Horse had never left any gifts for spirit beasts, and it only knew the general idea.

"Old Ji, why don't you ask it what it wants?"

Ji Juechen was speechless at Huo Yuhao's suggestion. Could it even understand what he was saying?

However, Ji Juechen didn't want the stalemate to continue, so he decided to try anything, and asked:

What do you want?

Moonlight Horse did not respond to his words, and continued to stare at him without moving.

"Do you want to come with us?"

Moonlight Horse seemed to understand these words and nodded its head slightly.

Seeing that Moonlight Horse had finally made a move, the three of them immediately became extremely alert.

Judging from its expression, does it want to go with Ji Juechen?

Why are you coming with us?

Ji Juechen asked again.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Moonlight Horse still did not answer.

"I've never heard of anyone raising a moonlight horse, and no one has ever seen it during the day. What's the deal with this moonlight horse?"

Doubts filled the minds of the three.

Putting aside their various doubts, the three decided to take it back first and see what happened during the day.

Ji Juechen reached out and stroked the mane of the Moonlight Horse, preparing to take it back to the camp.

However, the moment Ji Juechen's palm touched the Moonlight Horse, an unexpected event occurred.

The Moonlight Horse quickly lost its life after being stroked.

This unexpected turn of events sent chills down the spines of the three. Xu Tianzhen immediately took out a high-level soul-guided shield and enveloped the three of them, along with the corpse of the Moonlight Horse.

This soul tool consumed a large amount of Xu Tianzhen's soul power.

The Moonlight Horse's life ended in an instant; the person who struck must have been extremely powerful. Xu Tianzhen's first reaction was correct.

The dangers she encountered in the forest over the past few days have enabled her to make the right choices when faced with unexpected events.

However, after the three of them looked around cautiously, they found that there was no one around, and it seemed that no one had attacked Moonlight Horse at all.

A black soul ring quickly rose from the corpse of the Moonlight Horse after its death.

This black spirit ring served as a constant reminder to the three that Moonlight Horse was dead.

The Moonlight Horse died so mysteriously; before it died, only Ji Juechen touched it with his hand.

If there was no one around, could Moonlight Horse have died from Ji Juechen's casual touch? How could Moonlight Horse, with its ten thousand years of cultivation, be so fragile?

However, the spirit rings that gradually drifted toward Ji Juechen truly confirmed that Moonlight Horse had indeed died at Ji Juechen's hands.

"What's going on?"

Ji Juechen had a big question mark in his mind.

Unfortunately, neither of the remaining two could answer him; they were also completely baffled.

"I don't know either, but it seems you can indeed absorb the Moonlight Horse's spirit ring. Could it be that the saying the Moonlight Horse was a gift to humanity is true?"

Huo Yuhao guessed.

"Anyway, just absorb it first. We'll protect you until you wake up. That way, we won't waste this soul ring that's so perfect for you."
