Douluo Continent: When Huo Yuhao Becomes the Lord of the End

Chapter 136 The Sunset Forest Holds My Destiny!

Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Hall of Offerings.

"Good, good, good, I never expected it, I really never expected it, Yuhao, you actually gained such a big benefit this time."

Kong Deming was very pleased, and he could hardly hide his smile as he looked at his disciple soaking in the warm water.

However, his disciple's physical condition is still somewhat unstable, and he will need to be properly cared for in the future.

Du Busi began preparing a medicinal bath, exclusively for Huo Yuhao, to nourish his body. Although he was surprised that his disciple's physical functions had not declined, he knew it was a good thing.

Moreover, after Huo Yuhao woke up, he described his situation to his two teachers in general terms, not only his breakthrough in mental strength and physical fitness, but also his comprehension of his own fighting spirit.

What surprised Poison Immortal the most was the age of his disciple's spirit rings. The first three spirit rings had all reached the ten-thousand-year level. He didn't know that his family's secret technique was so powerful that it could increase the age of spirit rings by so much.

Of course, the most important thing was this sudden enlightenment, a profound meditation that lasted for half a year, which was something that had never been encountered in the records of the Body Sect.

Moreover, after his examination, he found that his disciple's current physical condition, as well as his already superior mental strength, were fully capable of withstanding a spirit ring of more than 50,000 years, which was simply unheard of.

The first four spirit rings were all ten thousand years, and the fourth spirit ring was at the fifty thousand year level. Doesn't this mean that with the sixth spirit ring, it would be possible to add a one hundred thousand year spirit ring to one's own disciple?

You have to understand, even I only managed to raise my soul ring to the 100,000-year level when I was a Soul Saint. I only achieved that after absorbing a lot of soul beast blood and spiritual energy from rare and precious materials. There's really no comparison between us.

Without a doubt, the talent of their own disciple could no longer be viewed with ordinary eyes, and adjustments had to be made to the subsequent matters.

"Yuhao, take good care of yourself during this time. Once you've recovered, I'll personally lead you to hunt for your fourth spirit ring."

Poison Undying is very excited; this challenge has far exceeded his expectations.

Speaking of the challenge, Huo Yuhao had a lot to ask.

"Teacher, after I entered a state of enlightenment, did anything happen at the academy?"

Kong Deming and Du Busi exchanged a glance, and decided to tell him anyway.

"Things are peaceful at the academy. Ever since you had that moment of enlightenment, no one at Sun Moon Academy has dared to question your title as the number one genius. Even the royal family, specifically the crown prince, has come to offer their condolences several times."

"Oh, and that embryo too. I've been studying it for quite a while with that old guy, Poison Undying, but we still can't figure out what kind of soul beast is inside. However, the clues seem to point to a certain ferocious beast in the far north."

"We two old folks have discussed it and decided that since we can't figure it out, we'll put it aside for now. There's plenty of time later."

"When you reach level 70, Yuhao, we'll join forces with Jue to suppress the consciousness of this soul beast and let you absorb this unprecedented 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo."

"."

After saying a lot, Kong Deming seemed to have thought of something at the end, and said with a smile.

"Over from Xingluo, news of Duke Baihu's death has spread, but it's slightly different from the truth. Xingluo has suffered repeated defeats on the Mingdou border and has now lost control of it. The advantage is now in the hands of Riyue."

"According to Xingluo's side, Duke Baihu died on the border because Sun and Moon used underhanded and despicable means against him due to Sun and Moon's rash actions. News from Duke Baihu's mansion was blocked, and apart from a few high-ranking officials, many people did not know the inside story."

"Besides, Xingluo has been in frequent contact with Shrek recently, seemingly because Shrek has encountered trouble and decided to join forces with the three kingdoms to crack down on the evil spirit masters within their territory."

A united front of three nations to combat evil spirit masters?
Huo Yuhao was confused for a moment. Could it be that Shrek Academy had suffered a loss at the hands of the evil soul master and wanted to take revenge? But wasn't that what they did before? What was the point of doing it now?
However, as long as war doesn't break out and the situation on the mainland doesn't change much, he doesn't care. At least Shrek Academy and the Three Kingdoms are now allied against evil spirit masters, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

However, there are some things he needs to discuss with his two teachers beforehand.

“Teacher, I still need time to choose my fourth spirit ring. However, if possible, I would like to wait until I have recovered my strength and go to the Douling Empire to experience the Sunset Great Forest there.”

Poison Undying couldn't understand his disciple's thought process. Why did he suddenly want to go to the Sunset Forest of the Douling Empire?
However, given the lessons learned from the past, Kong Deming knew that, needless to say, his disciples were once again feeling that inexplicable and mysterious guidance of fate.

"Yuhao, there aren't many soul beasts in the Sunset Forest, let alone 50,000-year-old ones. Going there to hunt souls seems a bit risky."

Before Du Bu Si could finish speaking, Kong Deming interrupted him. "Yu Hao, you're saying there's an opportunity for you in the Sunset Forest, right?"

What do you mean by "opportunity"?!
It's hard to understand why he can't be poisoned, since he didn't see Huo Yuhao sneak off to the far north alone and then come back with a 100,000-year soul ring.

“That’s right, teacher. Fate has told me that there is an opportunity there that can help me.”

He didn't make any definitive statements, leaving it vague. After all, it was still too hard to accept that such a desolate place contained one of the world's three great treasure troves, the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

Although Du Bu Si found it hard to understand, he didn't say much, because he found that the old man Kong Deming didn't stop him. It seemed that his disciple could really feel the guidance of fate.

But that doesn't make sense. He knows the Sunset Forest too; apart from the poisonous fog and the deathly stillness, there seems to be nothing there.

He had been there before, but found nothing but deathly silence. Could there be something more to it?

"Alright, during this time you should take good care of your health and think about what kind of soul beast you should hunt for your fourth soul ring."

"Those challenges are no longer necessary. Use this time to calm down and study soul tools with your senior brother Xuan Ziwen. When the time is right, I will take you to the Spirit Battle."

No sooner had Kong Deming finished speaking than Du Busi stepped forward, directly contradicting his previous statements and brooking no refusal.

"Then there's no need. There are a lot of trivial matters here at Sun Moon that need your attention, old man. I'll take care of taking Yuhao to the Sunset Great Forest."

He realized that he still didn't understand this disciple as well as Kong Deming. How could this be? He couldn't possibly let go of this opportunity to personally guide the Soul Hunters and cultivate a good teacher-student relationship.

"That's fine too."

Kong Deming agreed. During their time together, he also realized that the old man, Du Bu Si, was genuinely very good to Yu Hao.

After all, the previous agreement was that Sun Moon Sect would teach Yuhao for a while, and if he didn't die from the poison, they would go back to Body Sect. After Yuhao reached level 50, he would go to Body Sect to thoroughly learn the secret techniques and undergo the Body Sect's Martial Soul Stimulation Ritual.

The fact that Du Busi stayed by Yuhao's side for a full six months while Yuhao was in a state of enlightenment is enough to show how much he cared for Yuhao.

Anyway, the Sun and Moon side can't do without me. With this old guy around, even if I go to the Sunset side, I probably won't encounter much trouble, so what am I worried about?

"Yuhao, after you've obtained your fourth spirit ring and returned from Sunset, come with me to the Body Sect."

This time, Kong Deming still did not stop it. After all, because of this enlightenment, some plans needed to be adjusted in a timely manner. He could tell that compared to making his own disciples become level 5 Soul Masters in the next period of time, the secret technique inheritance of the Body Sect was more important.

Continuing to stay with Sun and Moon will only waste your talent. Soul guidance research can be done anytime, and it's even more advantageous and faster at higher levels. Now that you've gained some benefits, you should maximize them.

With the increase in soul power level, becoming a level 5 or even level 6 soul master is not a sure thing.

Huo Yuhao nodded in agreement.

In his mind, after absorbing and refining the immortal herbs from the Yin-Yang Well, his strength would probably be able to break through to level 50, or even level 60.

His knowledge and experience are truly profound.

It can be said that this time, not only will he need his teacher's help to hunt for the fourth spirit ring, but he may also need his teacher's help to hunt for the fifth spirit ring, and his strength will once again experience a surge.

With the ability to create a mental puppet and share a mental detection soul skill, coupled with his own soaring mental power, raising his soul master level will be a very simple matter.

He doesn't even need to study; he only needs to rely on his mental puppet to accumulate knowledge. The combination of mental detection and the mental puppet makes him a mobile cloud drive. As long as he has enough knowledge, creating soul tools is a piece of cake. All he needs to do is increase his soul power level.

Can this be played without cutting?
There's nothing we can do about it; he's cheating. Old Huo has a very clear understanding of himself.

Now, the only thing he needs to consider is what kind of immortal herbs to absorb after arriving at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, and how to combine his fourth and fifth soul ring skills more deeply to create the prototype of his own body armor.
