Douluo: The True Eye

Chapter 165: Prelude to War

After the brief commotion caused by Niu Tian's wail.

Star Dou Great Forest returned to calm, though it wasn't outwardly apparent.

However, Di Tian was indeed dissatisfied with the Silver Dragon King's decision.

After all, in his heart, only the Dragon race was the most noble race in this world.

And the Soul Beast race, born from the Dragon God's legacy, was also qualified to be ruled by him.

As for humans, after hundreds of thousands of years of accumulated stereotypes.

Although Di Tian wouldn't underestimate human potential, he still found it difficult to erase his hostility towards humans.

The other ferocious beasts had much simpler thoughts; they would listen to whatever the Silver Dragon King said.

Moreover, since Di Tian and the Emperor Ruirui Beast hadn't expressed their opinions, they naturally didn't bother to stand out as the first to speak.

However, there was one exception: Xiong Jun.

After listening to Gu Yuena's announcement that Star Dou Great Forest would obey Huo Yuhao's command.

He, with the most explosive temper and simplest mind, immediately stood up.

"Roar! Boss, I'm not convinced! Why should we listen to this human brat?"

Seeing this, the Silver Dragon King merely glanced at Xiong Jun and said, "I have my own reasons. Is there anyone else besides Xiong Jun who is not convinced?"

After the other ferocious beasts exchanged glances, Di Tian also stood up.

Looking at the silent Di Tian, Gu Yuena felt helpless.

She had returned in haste this time, and in order to convey her will as soon as possible.

Therefore, she had chosen to directly notify all the ferocious beasts and hundred-thousand-year soul beasts.

So, she hadn't yet told Di Tian about her conversation with Huo Yuhao and the series of collaborations.

She also knew that Di Tian indeed harbored much hatred towards humans, but she didn't expect Di Tian to stand up at this critical moment.

However... before Gu Yuena could say anything more.

Huo Yuhao released Di Ruirui's hand beside him and stepped forward as well.

"If the two ferocious beasts are dissatisfied with me, it's probably not because they doubt the Silver Dragon King's decision."

"It's likely because of my shallow cultivation and human identity. If that's the case, then why don't we spar? I wonder what the two of you think?"

Hearing this, Xiong Jun snorted disdainfully: "You little human, I'm afraid you can't even withstand one of my claws!"

However, Di Tian's expression was a little unsightly because he could feel a pressure emanating from Huo Yuhao that was deeper than his own bloodline, which was very different from when he last saw Huo Yuhao.

'How is it possible? Even if he also possesses the pure-blooded True Dragon royal family bloodline, he shouldn't be able to suppress me, the Black Dragon Clan Leader.'

'Then why do I feel...'

Seeing Di Tian remain silent but not object.

Xiong Jun coldly snorted: "Alright, then let me test whether your strength matches your boasting!"

Xiong Jun directly transformed into his massive Darkgold Terrorclaw Bear form.

At this moment, a silver light flashed beside the surrounding ferocious beasts.

Then, all the ferocious beasts were teleported away by Gu Yuena.

With Xiong Jun and Huo Yuhao as the center, a battlefield large enough for the two to stretch their limbs was vacated.

While watching from a distance, although she knew that Huo Yuhao must have been confident to provoke him like this, Di Ruirui was still a little nervous.

However, through the soul contract, Huo Yuhao's calm state of mind gradually smoothed out the unease in her heart.

Without waiting for the two sides to exchange words, the terrifying power surged and condensed on Xiong Jun's pair of Darkgold Terrorclaws.

Then, the power of the Darkgold Terrorclaws transformed into ten golden blades, each a thousand meters long, streaking across the sky.

Accompanied by this attack, the originally stable space was torn open into ten huge cracks.

This was Xiong Jun's famous stunt, the strongest attack that pushed his race's strongest talent, the Darkgold Terrorclaws, to the extreme.

Tearing Sky Claws, this attack had even injured Di Tian before, which shows how powerful it is.

However, in front of Huo Yuhao, this move was far from enough.

Although the power of the Tearing Sky Claws themselves was terrifying, they mainly worked on tearing the space itself.

Compared to the ten golden claw mark phantoms spanning a thousand meters, the spatial cracks they tore open were actually the biggest threat.

If facing a Limit Douluo who could already control the power of space, Xiong Jun's attack wouldn't be so terrifying.

Although he didn't possess Limit-level cultivation, Huo Yuhao had stronger means than ordinary Limit Douluos.

Twin Martial Soul True Body Fusion!

Truth Domain superimposed with Absolute Zero Domain!

With Huo Yuhao as the center, a faint ice-blue color spread out.

It wasn't the color of the spectrum, but it acted on the space itself, dyeing the original space into the color of ice.

Whether it was the golden claw marks or the torn spatial cracks, they were all frozen at this moment.

As the instigator, Xiong Jun looked at this scene in disbelief.

He could understand if Huo Yuhao defended against it or dodged it.

Even if Huo Yuhao used some powerful means to fight against his Tearing Sky Claws, he would accept it.

After all, he was a human recognized by the Soul Beast Co-lord, the Silver Dragon King, so he had nothing to say.

But at this moment, are you sure you're not kidding me? This is space! Freezing space itself?!

Not to mention Xiong Jun, at this moment, the other ferocious beasts were also shocked by this move.

This was indeed somewhat beyond their understanding, only Di Tian noticed Huo Yuhao at this time.

Compared to ordinary Ice Dragons, the giant dragon transformed by Huo Yuhao's Martial Soul True Body.

Its scales emitted a faint silver light, not the somewhat translucent ice-blue color of normal Ice Dragons.

'Could it be... no wonder...' Di Tian vaguely understood why he felt that Huo Yuhao's bloodline seemed to suppress him.

If that was the case, then everything made sense. Since the Silver Dragon King had decided to this extent, then what could he object to?

Regardless of how shocked Xiong Jun and the other ferocious beasts were, Huo Yuhao's counterattack had just begun.

The original golden claw marks and spatial cracks were smoothed out and assimilated by the Absolute Zero Domain.

Immediately afterward, the Absolute Zero Domain expanded towards Xiong Jun's location at an even more exaggerated speed.

Seeing this, Xiong Jun's heart sounded a great alarm. He could feel that if he took this move, he probably wouldn't get away with it.

After all, even the Sea Princess with 600,000 years of cultivation couldn't withstand the complete version of the Absolute Zero Domain.

Even if the Absolute Zero Domain displayed by Huo Yuhao now was inferior, it was only insufficient in range.

In terms of the level of power and the scope of influence, it was completely the same.

But at this moment, Gu Yuena made a move.

The Absolute Zero Domain, which had already expanded to Xiong Jun's front, briefly stagnated.

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao just smiled slightly and directly retracted it: 'Tearing Sky Claws, the understanding of space within is a bit interesting.'

Afterward, Huo Yuhao released the Soul Avatar and reverted to his original form: "I wonder if His Excellency Di Tian still wishes to fight? My combat power is still quite ample, and I am willing to accompany you."

The difficulty of fighting Di Tian is naturally incomparable to Xiong Jun.

Even with Absolute Zero Domain, it would be difficult for Huo Yuhao to pose a threat to him.

However, with the Soul Contract with the Silver Dragon King, even if he only borrowed a small portion of the Silver Dragon King's power,

Huo Yuhao could display the true demeanor of the Ice Dragon King martial soul. In that case, even when facing the renowned Beast God, it would not be impossible to fight.

However, Di Tian shook his head and did not come down to fight or say anything more.

Xiong Jun swallowed, still somewhat frightened, and retreated back into the ranks of the Dire Beasts.

Gu Yuena looked around at the Dire Beasts and said, "Since no one has any objections, from today onward, Huo Yuhao's orders will be equivalent to my own."

"All those belonging to Star Dou Great Forest must obey. Violators will be judged as disobeying my orders."

"Yes! Your Majesty."

After the meeting ended, the Dire Beasts and hundred-thousand-year Soul Beasts dispersed,

Notifying the news to the subordinate groups under their command.

Gu Yuena then brought Huo Yuhao and Di Ruier to the heart of the Lake of Life.

At this time, a young dragon with bright red scales all over its body was playing there.

Although its size was not large, it already exuded a rare aura of power.

At the same time, the dragon horns on its head were also different from ordinary young dragons, already taking shape and appearing in a golden-red color.

This was the dragon cub that inherited the blood of the Fire Dragon King clan and the legacy of the God-King after the True Dragon Egg hatched.

Seeing Gu Yuena's arrival, it instinctively approached her.

Gu Yuena smiled and picked up the little dragon: "Because of the legacy of the Fire Dragon King, this child is in very good condition."

Gu Yuena gently stroked the little dragon in her arms.

Then she looked at Huo Yuhao, who had a calm expression: "The Gold of Life you need is here."

"I promised you that as long as it does not damage the foundation of Star Dou Great Forest, you can take it all."

"However, one thing is one thing. Three days have passed. If you haven't interrogated anything of value, then you should hand that traitor over to me for disposal."

Speaking of this, Gu Yuena's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.

Huo Yuhao then opened the door to the Undead Demiplane.

Only to see the Titan, already gray all over, being thrown out from within.

Also thrown out was an earth-yellow Soul Crystal.

During these few days, Illyas had used undead magic

To separate the memories and soul in the Titan's mind from his original body.

Although, strictly speaking, Titan, as a divine official, was indeed stronger than Illyas, who was only a demigod.

However, the difference between the two in their understanding of the level of power was simply too great.

In addition, the Titan had no power to resist. In this way, it was naturally easy for Illyas.

"Its memories are all in this Soul Crystal."

Huo Yuhao replied with a calm expression: "I have sorted it out, and there should be no omissions or incompleteness."

"Moreover, Shrek Academy now seems to be secretly doing something big because it has lost contact with the God Realm."

After Gu Yuena took the Soul Crystal, she directly browsed it with her powerful divine sense.

Then she smiled coldly: "Heh heh, Core of Life, Lord of the Plane, what a fat courage, what great ambition."

"It seems that this second-generation Asura God after taking over is indeed quite restless, no wonder he even dared to set his sights on me."

Gu Yuena exerted a little force in her palm, and a dragon claw phantom appeared, about to crush the crystal formed by the Titan's soul in her hand.

However, after seeing Huo Yuhao beside her, she finally let go and threw the Soul Crystal, which had produced some cracks, to Huo Yuhao.

"Hmph, it's still a soul of a divine official level, although I can't wait to crush this traitor into ashes, it's better not to waste it."

Huo Yuhao nodded: "Then what about his body?"

Gu Yuena said indifferently: "Then I'll give it to you as well."

"Core of Life, Lord of the Plane, these are our next key targets."

"As for the remaining traitor, we'll just clean him up along the way."

Huo Yuhao nodded and put away the Titan's body and Soul Crystal again.

At this time, Di Ruier returned to Huo Yuhao's side from under the Lake of Life with a large piece of Gold of Life.

Looking at the piece of Gold of Life in Di Ruier's hand, even the Silver Dragon King couldn't help but feel a little heartache.

"Ruier, you, ah, you, are really not stingy at all."

Looking at Di Ruier and Huo Yuhao flirting with each other, Gu Yuena waved her hand irritably: "Alright, alright, you've got what you wanted, you can all leave now."

‘Out of sight, out of mind, find a way,’ Gu Yuena silently comforted herself in her heart, although it was not unworthy to give these Gold of Life, it was still a bit painful.

Then Gu Yuena didn't care where Di Ruier and Huo Yuhao were going next, and went to the depths of the Lake of Life with the Fire Dragon cub.

"Next, I will be in seclusion for a period of time."

Huo Yuhao took Di Ruier's hand and walked out of the core area of Star Dou Great Forest.

Di Ruier just nodded, enjoying this rare moment of being alone with Huo Yuhao.

"I hope that the cooperative relationship between Star Dou Great Forest and the Sun Moon Empire can be further improved on this basis."

"Why is that?" Di Ruier asked with some doubts.

"Now that the four great empires are wary of each other, it has given Shrek Academy a rare time of peace."

"When the war breaks out in full swing, then Shrek Academy will inevitably be unable to stay out of it."

"Even if they don't want to, they will definitely be involved in the quagmire of war."

"That will be the best opportunity for us to deal with Shrek Academy."

"Moreover, the Sun Moon Empire will definitely not let go of Shrek Academy, and then they can be our vanguard."

"To reveal any other trump cards that Shrek Academy may have."

Di Ruier nodded and whispered, "Yes, I understand, I'll arrange it right away."

"I'll wait for you to finish your seclusion." Di Ruier gently hugged Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao also hugged her, and they separated after a brief embrace and kiss.

Huo Yuhao sighed secretly in his heart. Although his strength is getting stronger and stronger now,

The bonds and relationships that have been established have also led to more and more aspects that he needs to consider.

In this way, it is bound to involve more of his energy.

Replenishing the Undead Demiplane is already imminent. If the Undead Demiplane is replenished,

No matter what the final result is, then he and the people he needs to worry about have an extra choice of retreat.
