"Necromantic Holy God, Calamity of the Undead…" Skydream Iceworm repeated the title, feeling that it sounded far more impressive than his re identity as a million year soul beast. He started contemplating a more fitting title for himself. "Soul Beast God" felt too exaggerated, while "Iceworm Calamity" didn't sound imposing enough.
"Bing Bing, what if I start calling myself 'Ice Dream Sacred Beast' from now on? 'Ice' cos from you, and 'Dream' cos from . This na symbolizes the beginning of our love story! One day, I will make the title 'Ice Dream Sacred Beast' echo throughout the entire Douluo Continent!" Skydream Iceworm eagerly sought Ice Empress's opinion.
Ice Empress sneered coldly before launching into an invincible scorpion punch, ruthlessly beating Skydream Iceworm.
"Stop, Bing Bing, stop! I don't fear pain, but I fear that your pincers will hurt from hitting ! If your pincers hurt, then I will feel heartbroken for you!" Skydream Iceworm whined.
"Shut up! Stop saying such nonsense in front of Elder Yi!" Ice Empress roared furiously. Upon sensing Electrolux's overwhelming presence, she instinctively referred to him as "Elder Yi" as a sign of respect.
Huo Yuhao was barely holding it together. Damn, Skydream is truly the ultimate simp.
If Skydream were a regular modern human, with his level of simping, he'd probably be raking in a fortune in relationship drama reality shows. No wonder he was part of Douluo's Simp Squad. Of course, compared to Bibi Dong, the ultimate failed simp, Skydream at least managed to achieve so level of success.
At that mont, his spiritual form appeared in his Spiritual Sea. He looked at the gray figure floating in the sky, feeling a wave of excitent.
Elder Yi! You're finally awake!
Truth be told, throughout the entirety of Soul Land 2, Electrolux had been one of the few genuinely trustworthy ntors one of the few sane people in Tang Family's universe.
Electrolux had been incredibly dedicated to Huo Yuhao's growth thankfully, not in a literal "ripping his heart out" sense.
In the original story, if it weren't for Huo Yuhao making a trip to the Haotian Sect, absorbing the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Jade Bed, and inadvertently triggering Snow Empress's latent power, Electrolux's consciousness fragnt might not have been sacrificed.
Even though that event marked the birth of the first soul spirit, Electrolux's sacrifice was still a devastating loss for the original Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao always believed that if Electrolux hadn't perished, he would have been the one ntor Yuhao could always trust a guide with vast life experience. Perhaps if Electrolux had stayed, Huo Yuhao's personality wouldn't have taken such a bizarre turn into a full blown love slave.
Every ti he read about Huo Yuhao simping over Tang Wutong, he felt a bit sick. The lasting impression of Dong'er and Qiu'er was too strong. He had loved both characters, only for them to be fused into the unfamiliar Tang Wutong, whom Huo Yuhao worshipped to an absurd degree.
Of course, at the end of the day, the ultimate villain behind everything was Tang Buddha himself.
Tang Buddha had always hated Electrolux. Back in the Qiankun Asking Love Valley, Tang Buddha had even deliberately destroyed Electrolux's last remaining relic.
That relic a small tower probably sensed Huo Yuhao was on the verge of a breakdown from getting beaten by Tang San, so it tried to teleport him away. But full power Tang Buddha destroyed it instantly.
Absolutely ridiculous.
"Now that Ice Empress, Skydream, and Electrolux are all inside my Spiritual Sea, along with my own spiritual form, we can literally play mahjong. Too bad we don't have a mahjong table."
Huo Yuhao's thoughts raced.
Then, he turned toward the gray figure.
"Greetings, Elder Yi."
Since Electrolux was soone worthy of respect, Huo Yuhao addressed him formally.
"Greetings, Yuhao," Electrolux replied. "Since I arrived in your Spiritual Sea, I have been observing you. You are a good child… However, I sense that your identity is not ordinary."
"My identity is not ordinary?"
Huo Yuhao froze. Wait… did he just realize I'm a transmigrator?!
Electrolux continued, speaking as if to himself.
"I can sense it. Deep within your Spiritual Sea, a trendously powerful force lies dormant.
"This power has no consciousness, but it has been protecting you."
Huo Yuhao's expression shifted.
Instantly, he thought of the golden light inside his Spiritual Sea.
So far, all he knew about this golden light was that it could block others from detecting his transmigrator status.
Other than that… it didn't seem to have any other functions.
Back at Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy, he had experinted with this golden light.
All he discovered was that infusing it with spiritual energy made it grow slightly larger but since he was busy training his soul power and crafting soul tools, he had never invested too much energy into it.
Ice Empress, who had paused her beatdown on Skydream, also seed surprised.
If soone like Elder Yi who was far beyond their level said Yuhao's identity was special, then what exactly was Huo Yuhao's true identity?
Even Skydream Iceworm looked shaken.
"Yuhao, have you been hiding sothing from us?! No… that's impossible!
"When I rged with you, I scanned through your entire mory.
"I should know everything about you!"
Damn it. Trust issues.
I need to co up with an excuse to resolve this situation.
And I need to twist it in a way that makes them trust even more.
After a mont of thought, Huo Yuhao spoke.
"I don't really know much about my true identity, either.
"But for as long as I can rember, I've had a recurring dream…"
"In this dream, there is a place called the God Realm."
"A single day there is equivalent to a year in the lower world.
"I stand upon the clouds of the God Realm, watching as the Douluo Continent changes.
"I see a silver light streak across the sky…
"I see countless soul beasts thriving…
"And I see humans slowly rising to power…"
"THE GOD REALM?!"
Skydream Iceworm's voice sharpened in shock.
His tone beca excited.
"If that's the case, then I should know everything about your dreams!
"Could it be… that you are a reincarnated god, who has lost most of your past mories?!
"This must be it!
"Otherwise, with my level of spiritual power, there's no way you could have hidden it from back when you were just a low rank Soul Master!"
Ice Empress's eyes widened.
"If you are a reincarnated god, then… doesn't that an you are destined to beco a deity?"
SHIT. I'M BECOMING REINCARNATED TANG SAN.
Huo Yuhao barely held back a sigh.
After all, if God Kings can reincarnate, then regular gods should be able to do the sa, right?
Sure, Tang San traveled to another world, but since the God Realm is much closer to Douluo, it would be logical for other gods to reincarnate here.
Huo Yuhao sighed deeply.
"I don't know if I am a reincarnated god…
"But I am sure of one thing.
"One day, I will return to that world."
"I have always had a strange sense of foresight a premonition that has saved many tis.
"Whether in the Duke's Mansion or on my way to Star Dou Forest, my premonitions have guided ."
Since Skydream and Ice Empress had never t a true god, they had no idea how powerful one really was.
So Huo Yuhao bullshitted a divine premonition ability, laying the groundwork for his future plans.
After all, in the future, he would need to travel to various places to seize opportunities. He couldn't just go on a whim without an explanation, especially to Tianng and Bingdi. So, he fabricated the "premonition" excuse.
That said, divine premonition was never an explicitly written setting, but it definitely existed and it was ridiculously accurate.
Take Tang San in the God Realm, for example. As the God King in charge of the God Realm's Core, he constantly sensed impending disaster. That was why he opposed Destruction God's expansion plan. And in the end? The God Realm was indeed struck by an enormous temporal storm, perfectly validating Tang San's foresight.
"No wonder! I was wondering why my luck suddenly turned around after being unlucky for so long! I finally t a Spirit Attribute Soul Master! So that's why!"
Skydream Iceworm suddenly realized the truth.
To be honest, his life could be divided into two major phases before eting Di Tian and after eting Di Tian.
Before encountering Di Tian, Skydream Iceworm was one of the luckiest soul beasts in the world. He only needed to eat and sleep to grow stronger a fact that would make any other soul beast die of envy.
But after eting Di Tian, his luck plumted, and he nearly got drained dry.
"I see!" Ice Empress was pleasantly surprised.
She suddenly felt that joining Skydream in the god making plan had been the right decision all along.
Huo Yuhao was personally confird by Elder Yi as soone "extraordinary" which ant she, too, could potentially achieve eternal life by following him!
Even Electrolux sighed with emotion.
"I don't know much about the gods of your world.
"But if you truly have the potential to beco a god, then that is a good thing.
"Based on your words, it seems that gods in your world can achieve eternal life while retaining their consciousness…
"Alright, my soul fragnt is too weak. I must return to slumber."
After speaking, Electrolux's voice faded away.
anwhile, Huo Yuhao was already thinking ahead about acquiring the Gold of Life from the auction house.
That way, Elder Yi's soul fragnt wouldn't remain so fragile and rootless.
"Of course, I also need to study this golden light more. Who knows what other functions it might have?"
Feeling a bit helpless, Huo Yuhao avoided the undead slaves and continued toward Mingdu.
Sun Moon Empire Mingdu
A pink blue haired youth and a tall, green haired man walked through the bustling streets.
Wang Dong glanced around at the massive buildings, murmuring to himself.
"Dad, this place is completely different from Haotian Sect and Shrek Academy.
"I've never seen structures like these before.
"The soul tools here seem far too advanced.
"Shrek Academy's soul tools can't even compare to the ones here…"
Then, Wang Dong turned to the man beside him.
"But now that we're here, you should finally tell …
"Why did you take on this trip across Douluo Continent after the sester ended?
"In the past, you and Second Dad never left the sect let alone traveled so far."
The man beside him, Da Ming, looked a bit helpless.
"Xiao Dong, I just thought you needed to get out and breathe so fresh air.
"You're at an age where you should be lively and active.
"It wouldn't be good for you to spend your entire break cooped up in the rigid Haotian Sect.
"Besides, visiting different empires will help you witness how rapidly the outside world is changing."
Of course, the real reason Da Ming was here was because Tang San ordered it.
A few days ago, after Wang Dong returned to Haotian Sect for the holidays, a wisp of Tang San's divine sense appeared.
Tang San inford Da Ming and Er Ming that a "new star" was rising in Douluo Continent and ordered Da Ming to take Wang Dong to Sun Moon Empire.
Why Sun Moon Empire?
Because Tang San had worked tirelessly to partially break through the mist obscuring the new star's fate.
And from what he gathered, this new star had spent so ti in Sun Moon Empire recently.
Tang San's Grand Plan
To ta the new star, Tang San ordered Da Ming to leave the mountains and help Wang Dong execute the plan.
The mont they found the new star, no matter whose hands he was in, they were to initiate a snatching operation imdiately!
Since Da Ming had no godly title, as long as Tang San concealed his actions, the rules of the God Realm wouldn't restrict him.
Other gods wouldn't even notice Da Ming's movents.
Besides, in the Sun Moon Empire, there was no one capable of defeating Da Ming not after Tang San personally revived him.
In a way, Da Ming was practically invincible.
Of course, Er Ming wasn't chosen because Da Ming was smarter.
Da Ming knew what to do and what not to do.
With Er Ming's personality, he wasn't suited for delicate operations.
The Most Important Part of the Plan
According to Tang San's instructions, during the "snatching operation", they absolutely had to create an opportunity for Wang Dong and the new star to et and bond.
Their fates had to intertwine.
Da Ming still rembered the mont he asked Tang San why he didn't just handle it personally.
Tang San had replied righteously:
"Gods must not interfere with the mortal realm!"
"As a God King and one of the Three Great Law Enforcers of the God Realm, I must set an example for the other gods!"
"Of course, this is also to prevent Destruction from using it against in etings. If I interfere in mortal affairs, he'll never let it go!"
"Therefore, unless it concerns my daughter, I have no valid excuse to intervene!"
Back in Mingdu
Wang Dong marveled at the luxury of the city.
"Mingdu is so grand…"
"This is the most advanced soul tool hub in the world, right?"
"But it's a sha… I still can't use any soul tool that isn't an exact replica of one used by my ancestor, Tang San."
"I don't even know why…"
Hearing this, Da Ming's eyes revealed a trace of sorrow.
To Da Ming, Wang Dong was like a goddaughter.
After all, she was Xiao Wu's only child.
Da Ming knew the real reason Wang Dong couldn't use other soul tools.
It was Tang San's doing.
Everything was a test designed by Tang San.
In Tang San's words:
"Without hardship, there is no progress!"
"Even I, a God King, went through countless trials to reach this point!"
"So even my own daughter must endure her own tribulations!"
Da Ming sighed.
"Oh well… In the end, Tang San is still Xiao Qi's biological father.
Everything he does is ultimately for Xiao Qi's own good."
"I have no choice but to keep this a secret from Xiao Wu…"
"Otherwise, with her temper, Tang San would definitely get scolded."
At that mont, Da Ming suddenly noticed Wang Dong's body moving uncontrollably toward a certain direction.
"…Hmm?"
"Could it be… has the new star been found?"
Feeling a wave of excitent, Da Ming quickly followed.
At the sa ti, Wang Dong felt a strange sense of urgency.
An intense feeling of searching for sothing had suddenly risen within her.
It was overwhelming almost instinctual.
It felt as though sothing had suddenly awakened within her body.
For so reason, a deep fear took root in her heart.
