Douluo Continent: The Spirit-Eyed Detective Huo Yuhao

"As he grows older, this divine consciousness should gradually dissipate, but the divine consciousness she possesses is the strongest I've ever seen among those with profound blessings. Perhaps it will never completely dissipate throughout her life," Electrox explained.

"Did the god choose Wang Dong and thus bless her? Or does he have some other purpose?" Huo Yuhao shook his head, unable to understand these inexplicable matters.

"In short, with our current abilities, it's best not to pry into that divine sense too easily. As long as you don't pry into it, you can still cultivate by fusing with it," Electrolux advised. He knew that Huo Yuhao must have become curious again and wanted to study it, but this time it was a bit too dangerous.

"Understood, Elder Yi, I will restrain myself." Huo Yuhao nodded, knowing the danger involved.

A divine sense...

This is really, really exciting.

"Hey? Yuhao, why did you stop? I told you, we really can fuse our martial souls, hehe."

Wang Dong finally came to her senses from the wondrous state of spirit fusion and was overjoyed. She seemed unaware of what had just happened.

"Ah, what a great discovery..." Huo Yuhao's face was full of a strange smile.

Chapter 59 Secrets, Memories, Fusion Techniques

"No! No! I don't want my blood drawn!!!"

Wang Dong screamed like a pig being slaughtered, his arm held down tightly by Huo Yuhao as a syringe was plunged into his arm.

"Alright, that's all done, stop yelling." Huo Yuhao put away the syringe.

"Huh? Is it done?" Wang Dong raised his hand, turned it over and looked at it. "I don't feel anything."

"Because I'm good at it." Huo Yuhao said nonchalantly, carefully examining the small bottle of blood with his mental detection.

With that divine sense obstructing him, he couldn't directly observe Wang Dong's body and could only conduct research from other aspects.

“It looks like just ordinary blood…” Huo Yuhao made little progress for the time being.

This is normal, after all, it is at the level of "gods", and he has not yet been able to effectively analyze it.

According to Elder Yi, that "god" is probably incredibly powerful, and unlike him, he is a native "god" of the Douluo Continent world. If one can analyze his power in detail, it will definitely be of great benefit to one's path to godhood.

"Yuhao, why did you come over to draw blood? We haven't even used our Martial Soul Fusion Skill yet. It's so frustrating to have to stop suddenly, just like the challenge was stopped." Wang Dong complained from the side. Spending so much time with Huo Yuhao had greatly improved her ability to make sarcastic remarks.

"You have twin martial souls, right?" Huo Yuhao asked.

"Hehe, you noticed! I also noticed you have three different auras now. Looks like we're both hiding secrets," Wang Dong said excitedly. "How about I tell you, and you tell me too?"

“Okay, you go first.” Huo Yuhao nodded.

"Hmph, my second martial soul is this." Wang Dong proudly stretched out her hand, and a hammer appeared in her hand.

"The Haotian Hammer?"

"That's the Haotian Hammer, a top-tier weapon spirit." Wang Dong swung the hammer, and as it shook, one could feel the immense power contained within it.

"So that's how it is. You're from the Clear Sky Sect." Huo Yuhao had read about it in the book; Shrek Academy's records of the Clear Sky Sect were quite detailed, after all, they had once had a deep relationship.

"Hmm, now you know, my identity is very powerful." Wang Dong was incredibly proud, with a face that looked like he wanted to punch someone.

"So Wang Dong is a fake name? Everyone in the Haotian Sect should have the surname Tang... Tang Dong?" Huo Yuhao thought of the characteristics of the Haotian Sect.

“That concerns another secret of mine, so I won’t go into it.” Wang Dong shook her head, then looked puzzled, scratching her head and saying, “Hmm, what secret was it again? I don’t think I can remember…”

"Can't remember?" Huo Yuhao thought of the divine consciousness seal in her body. "It might be related to the third aura in your body. According to my examination, it is a seal that seals your memories."

"My memories are sealed? I might really be called Tang Dong? No way?" Wang Dong's mind became more and more confused, and he immediately made a decision.

She didn't want to anymore.

At worst, I can go back and ask her uncles.

"It's right not to think about it for now. It's best not to act rashly if we can't deal with that seal," Huo Yuhao agreed.

It's unclear how that "god" managed to tamper with soul memories. Huo Yuhao only realized this after researching it himself. Only with sufficient understanding of the brain and soul, and possessing sophisticated equipment, could he have a slight confidence in altering someone's memories without affecting their physical health.

Simply and crudely altering memories with brute force can cause serious damage to the brain and soul.

After all, he's a god. He shouldn't be so ignorant as to casually access other people's memories. Besides, it seems that Wang Dong and that god have a close relationship.

"Alright, it's your turn. Tell me about your martial spirit," Wang Dong asked curiously.

"Second Martial Soul: Ice Jade Scorpion, Ultimate Ice." Huo Yuhao raised his palm and conjured a piece of ice.

"Ultimate Ice!" Wang Dong exclaimed, then saw the ice block, brimming with extreme cold, change shape like jelly in Huo Yuhao's hands.

The flowing ice formed an ice-blue crystal necklace that wrapped around Wang Dong's neck, the cold air condensing and emitting only a slight chill.

"This...this necklace is a gift for me?! Yuhao, you..." Wang Dong was somewhat flustered.

"It's not a necklace, it's an insurance policy," Huo Yuhao said calmly.

"Insurance?"

"If something goes wrong with the seal I'm investigating, and I end up in danger, I'll first use the necklace to snap your neck and see if killing you solves the problem," Huo Yuhao said with a smile.

"Don't say such terrible things so matter-of-factly!" Wang Dong complained, clearly not believing Huo Yuhao's words. Clutching the ice crystal necklace, she was still secretly pleased.

It must be very cool to wear in the summer.

"What about the third aura? Do you also have a seal on it?" Wang Dong remembered that Huo Yuhao had another aura within him.

"No, it's magic." Huo Yuhao, of course, wouldn't reveal Ilex's name, but instead used his own magic to cover it up. "Remember when I taught you some light magic? It's the power of that magic."

"Oh, so that's what it is! That magic is incredibly useful!" Wang Dong exclaimed in realization. Light magic was a perfect match for her abilities and greatly benefited her cultivation.

Now everything is clear.

"Let's go unleash our Martial Soul Fusion Technique again." Exchanging secrets made Wang Dong very happy, and he excitedly pulled Huo Yuhao out the door.

………………

In the woods,

"Relax, I'll take care of it," Huo Yuhao said. Wang Dong naturally trusted him completely and did as he was told.

The two's martial souls began to merge again, with the first experiment being the fusion of the Spirit Eye and the Goddess of Light Butterfly.

Behind Wang Dong, a complete and magnificent phantom image of the Goddess of Light appeared.

Behind Huo Yuhao appeared a huge, deep blue, vertically-eyed phantom. The eye was extremely eerie, almost like a living thing. As soon as it appeared, it began to move its eyes erratically, as if trying to observe everything around it.

The dazzling wings slowly embraced the light and shadow of the spirit eye, and the two combined to create a strange vertical eye with wings on its back.

The next instant, a beam of light in blue, purple, and gold shot out from the center of the vertical eye, the straight energy piercing through the forest in front and creating a deep trench.

"No, that's not all." Huo Yuhao's expression remained unchanged. Ignoring the rapidly depleting soul power, he raised his hand and forcibly controlled the beam of light he was shooting out.

Just as he expected, the beam of light that had been infused with his spiritual power was still under his control. The originally straight beam of light could bend and twist like a snake under his control.

"Whoo~"

Huo Yuhao took a breath and dispersed the beam of light; the Martial Soul Fusion Technique had indeed consumed a great deal of energy.

"Wang Dong, recover quickly. Let's try out the other martial soul fusion techniques next," Huo Yuhao said impatiently, his interest greatly piqued by the wonders of martial soul fusion techniques.

"It's not that easy to recover. You're going to exhaust me!" Wang Dong was speechless. Is soul power something that can be recovered just like that?

"Of course I have a way." Huo Yuhao flipped his hand and took out two Soul-Elevating Pills, one for each of them. "Eating these will restore them, won't it?"

"Where did you get so many Soul-Upgrading Pills?" Wang Dong asked, his eyes wide.

"I bought the materials and made it myself, and I've improved it. It's even better than the original." Huo Yuhao directly stuffed it into her mouth, avoiding unnecessary words.

Then they tried the remaining three fusions.

"It's amazing that all four martial souls can be fused together, but necromancy and her divine consciousness seal can't. It must be because they all have special characteristics." Huo Yuhao pondered, "If martial souls that are completely unrelated can be fused together, then other powers should also have the potential to be fused together... I'll try again later."

………………

The divine realm

"My divine consciousness seal has been disturbed. Has someone touched it?" Tang Shenwang, who was receiving the new god, suddenly changed his expression. His connection with Douluo Continent seemed to have been restored.

Chapter 60 From God's Watch

“Let’s stop here, Wisdom.” The sea god smiled and stood up. “You can choose your own place of residence. If you have any questions, you can ask the priests. Of course, you can also ask me.”

With long, flowing, aquamarine hair that cascaded down to his feet, and a magnificent blue robe that seemed to ripple with water, he was a handsome man with deep, dark eyes—the Sea God Tang San.

Tang San looked at the God of Wisdom sitting opposite him and felt at peace.

After this period of conversation, he had observed this so-called "god of wisdom" quite well.

Although he was at the level of a first-level god, his strength had only just reached the threshold.

He is also not as intelligent as him. After all, just because someone calls himself the "God of Wisdom" doesn't mean he is wise. Many of the self-created names of gods in the divine realm are just randomly chosen, just like how the God of Food's cooking is not as good as the God of Emotions'.

What can be said about this god of wisdom?

His cultivation level, intelligence, and appearance are all extremely ordinary, so ordinary that it's hard to believe there could be such an ordinary first-level god. You might as well call yourself the God of Ordinary...

In short, Tang San believed that this new god would not have any impact on his grand plans and magnificent blueprint, so he didn't need to pay attention to him.

"Alright, Poseidon, go ahead and get busy. It was a pleasure chatting with you," the god of wisdom said politely before leaving.

"I need to hurry and see how things are going on in Douluo Continent. One day in the God Realm is a year in the mortal realm. We've been talking for so long, I'm afraid three months have passed there already." Tang San shook his head, feeling that he had wasted time.

However, in just three months, the Douluo Continent was still under his control; his plan was very well-thought-out.

"Huh? Who was I just chatting with?" Tang San turned around, his memory becoming a little blurry. "Never mind, it's not important."

…………

"What's going on?!"

Tang San looked shocked, unable to believe what he was seeing.

"How did Shrek City become like this?"

As a high-level god, Tang San has always had the authority to monitor lower planes, and on the Douluo Continent, the places he pays close attention to are naturally places like Shrek Academy, which are related to him.

In just three months, Shrek City has changed so much! It hasn't changed this much in the previous ten thousand years!

Even the faith power from Shrek City has decreased significantly, falling to its lowest level in recent years.

Although his cultivation level did not rely on faith after many years of practice, the power of faith still brought him some benefits. The Sea God's position was also formed by the faith of the Douluo Continent, and he was very sensitive to the power of faith.

"How could this be? Where has all the faith gone? Why has so much suddenly disappeared?" Tang San continued to investigate Shrek City and then discovered the problem.
