Chapter 190 Cooperation with the Demon Emperor
When Huo Yuhao appeared in the Lake of Life, the first to react were not the Demon Emperor, nor the ferocious beasts like Xiong Jun.
Instead, it was the Silver Beast King in Lan Fuzi's hands.
Upon seeing Huo Yuhao appear, it immediately let out a mournful roar, as if it had suffered a great injustice.
Ignoring Lan Fuzi's exclamation, it took off running and headed straight for Huo Yuhao.
As a deep-sea demon whale, Lan Fuzi has extremely high energy levels, and the number of times she walks the Silver Elite Beast around every day has already exceeded one hundred.
Xiong Jun once counted Lan Fuzi's steps out of boredom and discovered that in one day, she walked the Silver Beast a full three hundred times.
Even though the Lake of Life is rich in spiritual energy, the Silver Beast cannot withstand the Blue Buddha's torment.
This isn't physical fatigue, but rather mental exhaustion.
Silver Beasts do resemble dogs in appearance.
It now whines and rubs against Huo Yuhao, looking like an abused pet that has finally found its owner after going through countless hardships.
Huo Yuhao chuckled and rubbed the Silver Beast's head, saying, "Looks like you haven't been having a great time lately."
Lan Fuzi was about to angrily chase after him when the Demon Emperor, who had stood up, blocked her way.
The Demon Emperor stared intently at Huo Yuhao: "Human?"
"Di Tian, what do you mean by bringing a human here?!"
Xiong Jun, Bi Ji, Wan Yao Wang, and Chi Wang instantly stood in front of Huo Yuhao.
When the Demon Emperor saw that all the Star Dou Beast Kings had stood in front of Huo Yuhao, he did not hesitate and immediately grabbed Lan Fuzi's arm, ready to flee the Star Dou Great Forest.
However, at this moment, Di Tian transformed into his true form, and his enormous dragon wings instantly blocked the Demon Emperor's path.
"Demon Emperor, this is Huo Yuhao. He is a distinguished guest from the Star Dou Great Forest. He has come to discuss a deal with you."
"I have nothing to talk about with humans!"
The Demon Emperor recalled the days when he was manipulated by the Holy Spirit Cult: "Di Tian, your Star Dou Great Forest has betrayed the Soul Beasts!"
Huo Yuhao suddenly spoke up: "Chen Fuhai is dead. I arranged for someone to blow him up."
"Not only Chen Fuhai, but even Tang San's mother, Blue Silver Emperor, was killed by a level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon."
"And Tang San's father, Tang Hao, had a wisp of his soul sent down to the mortal realm, which I also used to refine him into a pill."
"The Tang Sect, which Tang San created, has now become my residence, and I have dug a base dozens of feet deep in the ground to build it."
"I've even planted an undercover agent in Haotian Fortress, preparing to completely destroy Tang San's foundation in the lower realm."
With each word Huo Yuhao spoke, the Demon Emperor's pupils contracted one more.
In the end, the Demon Emperor rushed in front of Huo Yuhao, but could only face Di Tian's imposing figure.
"You're too close to him." A faint aura of power emanated from Di Tian's hands.
However, the Demon Emperor ignored everything, his eyes bloodshot as he stared at Huo Yuhao behind Di Tian: "What did you just say?!"
"Say those words again!"
Not only was the Demon Emperor shocked, but even the Star Dou Beast Kings present began to doubt their own ears.
They knew everything about Huo Yuhao, and they even learned the reason why Shrek Academy was bombed from Di Tian.
As early as when they were at the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, Xue Di told Di Tian about the alliance between the Far North and Tian Hun.
Therefore, the Star Beast Kings were aware of the sudden appearance of the Level 9 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell.
But what about Huo Yuhao's earlier statement about refining Tang Hao's divided soul into pills?
This time, Huo Yuhao directly revealed the last two level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells from the starlight sapphire necklace.
Although he didn't take it out, he only let the Demon Emperor peek through the spatial gap of the Starlight Sapphire Necklace, but this still made Xiong Jun and other ferocious beasts tremble with fear.
"Kid!" Xiong Jun roared urgently, "You wear that thing around your neck all the time?!"
"You actually dared to swagger into the Lake of Life?!"
"Aren't you afraid they'll suddenly explode?!"
This is a level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell, with power equivalent to the full-force attack of a Limit Douluo!
If the two were detonated at the same time, the space in the area would be thrown into chaos, making it impossible to use any spatial means. The only option would be to escape by speed!
Huo Yuhao said calmly, "Seniors, rest assured, the shells are very stable. They have been sealed with demigod-level techniques."
"I believe that Senior Demon Emperor has already visited Shrek Academy these past few days."
This time, Huo Yuhao took out a handful of black ash: "I don't know if this is the ash from the Golden Tree."
"But based on Shrek Academy's location, I think it might be."
"Mu En's body was possessed by Chen Fuhai's soul, and his original soul transformed into the detached martial soul, the Holy Light Dragon, which was sealed by the Body Sect using the God Sealing Platform."
"But Elder Yi used his demigod-level abilities to communicate with Mu En's soul in the Conferred God Platform."
Electrolux manifested from the Niwan Palace, glanced indifferently at the Demon Emperor, and then stood beside Huo Yuhao.
His origin is still connected to Huo Yuhao, so he can still enter Huo Yuhao's Niwan Palace.
Its current state is quite similar to that of the Transformation Refining Furnace, which has acquired a spirit.
Huo Yuhao pointed his right hand together like a sword, then summoned the Transformation Qi Refining Furnace from his Niwan Palace: "And Tang Hao used this furnace to refine."
"Tang Hao was vying with the plane's will for the power of the plane master. After sensing that the Blue Silver Emperor had been blown up, he split off a wisp of his soul and took over Shrek Xuanzi's body."
Huo Yuhao activated his Heavenly Heart Communication: "As the chosen one of Douluo Star, I feel the call of Douluo Star."
"Then I refined it into a pill and had my friend, who was hiding in Haotian Fortress, take it."
After experiencing the effects of the Heavenly Heart Interaction, all the soul beasts present were shocked.
How did Huo Yuhao acquire the abilities of a mythical beast?!
Although his ability is still very weak, all the soul beasts have genuinely felt a slight increase in their cultivation speed!
Especially when they saw Huo Yuhao bend down and pick up a seed of Blue Silver Grass, letting it take root and sprout in his hand, the beasts couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Brigitte trembled all over. She could sense that Huo Yuhao was not using his natural way to accelerate the growth of the Blue Silver Grass, but rather using the power of heaven and earth to make the Blue Silver Grass seeds germinate naturally!
There was no need for Huo Yuhao to explain further.
His use of these two abilities completely convinced the beasts that he was the chosen one of Douluo Star.
Xiong Jun stared in disbelief, muttering to himself, "How can I possibly take him on as a follower?"
"If I dared to do that, I'd be killed in the next great calamity of soul beasts."
Huo Yuhao did not rush to negotiate with the Demon Emperor, but instead took this opportunity to bring Tianmeng to the sight of the Star Dou Beast Kings.
Upon seeing Huo Yuhao's golden first ring of the Hundred-Year Soul Ring and the Ice Emperor Soul Ring with four golden patterns, the Beast Kings completely lost their ability to think.
Based on what Huo Yuhao has shown so far, if he is not the chosen one of destiny, Xiong Jun would definitely be the first to go up and fight him.
The sacrifice of a million-year-old soul beast, the sacrifice of the Northern Heavenly King, the divine furnace forging the Dragon King's dragon core, and the accompaniment of a demigod from another realm.
Anyone who possesses even one of these qualities will become a trendsetter of the times.
Huo Yuhao, however, possessed all of them, and even more.
Huo Yuhao recounted to the Star Dou Beast King and the Demon Emperor what he had told Di Tian.
Lan Fuzi stood blankly behind the Demon Emperor, listening to Huo Yuhao recount these events as if they were from a foreign language.
After hearing about the Wisdom Soul Ring, Zi Ji gave Huo Yuhao a meaningful look.
Huo Yuhao was telling her about the Wisdom Soul Ring, and also trying to calm the Star Dou Beast Kings' emotions regarding Zi Ji's sacrifice.
After listening to Huo Yuhao's story, the demon emperor's deliberate expression gradually faded.
This person named Huo Yuhao is truly working hard for the future of soul beasts and soul masters, and he already has a direction.
Moreover, he discovered this direction by using the soul of Tang San's father.
After explaining everything, Huo Yuhao reached into the Starlight Sapphire Necklace and took out two frozen heads, presenting them to Xiong Jun.
"Senior Xiong Jun."
Huo Yuhao held Dai Huabin's head in one hand and Ma Xiaotao's head in the other: "They were all killed with the Dark Gold Terror Claw."
"Actually, there was another one named Dai Yueheng, but his body was taken away by the Star Luo Empire, so it was inconvenient for me to cut off his head."
Xiong Jun looked at the two heads in Huo Yuhao's hands and let out a deafening laugh: "Good lad! Loyal to the end!"
"If the mother bear gives birth to two cubs, I'll arrange for you to raise one of them, the Dark Gold Deinonychus!"
The Demon King said quietly, "Aren't you afraid that Yuhao will raise a Bear Emperor and seize your position?"
"And do you want Yuhao to raise it for you, or do you want the will of Douluo Star to raise it for you?"
Xiong Jun chuckled awkwardly twice and exclaimed that it was all the same. Huo Yuhao was the chosen one, so it didn't matter who raised him.
He would be overjoyed if he could actually raise a bear emperor.
Huo Yuhao bowed to the Demon King, saying, "Senior, once the matter of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is resolved, Mingxi and I will assist you in your cultivation there as soon as possible, as a reward for learning the Thousand-Year Domain in an Instant."
The Demon King beamed with joy upon hearing this.
He channeled his soul power to the fullest extent, and a small tree slowly grew from the top of his head, with a crystal-clear fruit hanging from it.
The Demon King plucked a fruit from his head and handed it to Huo Yuhao: "I've been waiting for this day for a long time."
"This is all my understanding of the realm of a thousand years in an instant. As long as you absorb and refine it, it's as if I'm guiding you all the time."
"When you're about to capture the Evil Emperor, Xingdou will absolutely do everything in its power to help!"
Huo Yuhao silently accepted the fruit.
Even if the Demon King is a plant-type soul beast with spiritual attributes, this behavior of bearing fruit from its head is still too bizarre.
The Demon King shook his head indifferently, and the small tree withered and decayed, falling silently from the top of his head.
Huo Yuhao put away the fruit and finally turned his gaze to the silent Demon Emperor: "Senior Demon Emperor, can we talk about cooperation now?"
The Demon Emperor's expression was complex: "You—where did your hatred for Tang San come from?"
Huo Yuhao remained silent.
As Huo Yuhao fell silent, the area around him where the Heavenly Heart resonated began to fluctuate violently.
Strangely enough, this area of the Lake of Life was hit by an unprecedented blizzard.
The howling blizzard and the thunderous lightning reflected the extreme turmoil in Huo Yuhao's heart.
Finally, Huo Yuhao dispersed the Heavenly Heart Interaction and said in a gloomy tone, "Tang San took my mother's soul in order to control me."
"I won't be able to vent my anger without killing his entire family in the future."
"The Blue Silver Emperor has been blown up, but Tang Hao is still alive, Tang San is still alive, and there are even descendants of Tang San living in the God Realm."
"Moreover, he currently serves as the sect leader of Haotian Fortress with his two spirit rings."
"Even the Holy Spirit Cult, which is threatening the mainland, may be a spy he cultivated using the position of the Asura God."
"Tell me, what reason do I have not to hate such an evil god?"
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao mention the Holy Spirit Cult, the Demon Emperor frowned.
"The Holy Spirit Cult destroyed Seagod Island with the orders of their Holy Emperor."
"Even the water element in Chen Fuhai's martial soul was transferred to me by their Holy Emperor."
"So I feel that their Holy Emperor might not be Tang San, but a true evil god."
The Demon Queen did not continue speaking, but everyone present understood what she meant.
Tang San had no reason to let his two factions kill each other.
Huo Yuhao fell into deep thought.
Could it be that there is another god in the God Realm plotting against Douluo Star?
Just as Huo Yuhao was pondering, the Demon Emperor took a step forward and stood in front of him.
"I agree to the cooperation you mentioned."
"I understand what you mean. Do you want me and the Deep Sea Soul Beast clan to fill Tang San's lackeys and the Holy Spirit Cult as research material for Qi theory in your Divine Furnace?"
Huo Yuhao looked at the Demon Emperor: "There are two other continents."
"I hope that you, senior, and the Deep Sea Soul Beast clan can protect those two continents from being discovered by the Holy Spirit Cult."
"No problem."
Without hesitation, the Demon Emperor said, "But since it's a cooperation, I need you to agree to one condition."
"Killing Tang San's lackeys and the Holy Spirit Cult is not only to avenge myself, but also to pave the way for the future of soul beasts, so I will not make any demands."
"But protecting the other two continents will serve as the link between our cooperation."
"My request is simple: if you can kill Tang San in the future, I want you to help my daughter become a mythical sea beast."
"I believe Di Tian has already mentioned Lan Fuzi's situation to you, so you can rest assured about her character."
Lan Fuzi, who had been standing to the side, suddenly stepped towards Huo Yuhao.
She stared at the Transformation Qi Refining Furnace that floated silently in front of Huo Yuhao: "If I give you my father's whale pearl, can you use this furnace and that demon spirit magic to revive my father?"
Huo Yuhao shook his head: "It's impossible to transform into a demon spirit without a soul."
"Even if the whale pearl contains the power of the deep-sea demon whale king, it won't work."
Lan Fuzi left in disappointment, squatting alone by the lake of the Lake of Life, remaining silent for a long time.
Seeing Lan Fuzi's expression, the Silver Beast hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and nuzzled against her.
Seeing this, Huo Yuhao and the Star Dou Beasts all sighed in unison.
It's impossible for Tang San to retain the remnant soul from the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's soul ring.
The Demon Emperor walked to Lan Fuzi's side, squatted down, and talked to her for a while.
No one knows what the Demon Emperor and Lan Fuzi said.
All they saw was Lan Fuzi forcefully wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then nodding emphatically.
Then the Demon Emperor came to Huo Yuhao again: "Since the agreement has been reached, I will go back now."
"The Holy Spirit Cult doesn't know I'm in the Star Dou Great Forest; they've always thought I'm in the Demon Forest."
"The Evil Emperor's cooperation with the Holy Spirit Cult is even deeper than mine; be careful."
Huo Yuhao clasped his hands in a fist salute: "I hope you will be careful, senior."
The Demon Emperor laughed, "No one in the ocean can kill me now, not even Ye Xishui."
"Take this whale pearl, refine the Sea God Martial Soul aura within it, and then give it to Lan Fuzi."
"In exchange, I will give all the existing soul bones in the deep sea to the Body Sect."
Huo Yuhao looked at the whale pearl in his hand.
At this time, the Demon Emperor had already left the Star Dou Great Forest and headed to the sea.
"Esteemed seniors."
Huo Yuhao turned around: "After I've refined all the Sea God Martial Souls within the whale pearl, I'm going to the Sun Moon Empire too."
"This trip could take anywhere from a few months to a year, or even longer."
"If anything happens to the Body Sect during this period, please help us out."
Di Tian looked at the Lake of Life: "The Lord is still asleep. You should be able to meet him when you come next time."
Huo Yuhao nodded, then sat down cross-legged and began refining the Sea God Martial Soul within the whale pearl.
