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

Chapter 320 Reached Golden Core? God King Realm! (4K)

The Bell of the End was vibrating, the first time it had ever acted abnormally, as if it could no longer bear the load of energy and was desperately suppressing something.

Based on its previous performance, the Bell of the End, apart from the echoes represented by the twelve bell patterns, is unable to bear power of a higher level than its attributes.

The laws of nature and the law of death are the best examples of this.

At this moment, whether it was the different elemental rules that the Dragon God's Heart was constantly condensing for Huo Yuhao, or the star rules, living creature rules, and natural rules that were condensed from the Throne of Eternity and Creation God, they all rushed to become nourishment and a part of him.

These rules and forces could not use the Bell of the End as a vessel, so they naturally chose Huo Yuhao as the vessel, regardless of whether he could inscribe so many rule-level forces at once.

Of course, if that were all, he could barely manage with the help of [Heavenly Movement] and [Madman], but the divine nature of creation within the Throne of Eternity and Creation God seemed to be lending a hand at this moment.

Moreover, the death rules of the Tower of Eternity are constantly driving the evolution of his own death rules. These two forces, working together to create higher-level rules of creation and destruction, are what are currently giving Huo Yuhao the biggest headache.

"Gan!"

He never imagined that he would resist the power of rules, which even gods crave, so strongly when they were placed before him.

sponge?

He admitted that his previous description was somewhat overstated.

Huo Yuhao now felt as if these rules were about to burst him apart. It was as if they were being brutally crammed into his body, without any regard for whether he could comprehend their true meaning.

However, his foundation is solid enough.

Because he already possessed several extreme attributes, as well as more than a dozen attributes from the inscribed soul spirit, he was able to spare some attention when comprehending those elemental rules in order to deal with the birth of the rules of creation and destruction.

His body and soul were shattered under the repeated impacts of the power of the rules, but were quickly restored by the [Heavenly Movement] and [Madman].

At the same time, [Fate] provides him with protection, while [Strong Luck] provides him with top-notch assistance, allowing him to immerse himself in a state of harmony with nature at all times.

The destruction of the body did not lead to collapse. Instead, the repeated destruction and reshaping indirectly accelerated his comprehension of the incomplete rules of creation and destruction, even if they were still very superficial.

However, compared to the evolution of the rules towards the level of creation aided by Eternity and the Throne of Creation, the progress of Death towards the rules of destruction is significantly slower.

As for the reason, Huo Yuhao roughly understood that the rules of destruction in this world had already been governed by someone, or rather, there had been an existence in this universe with a higher level of understanding of the rules of destruction than he had.

As for who it is, there's no need to say more.

Therefore, in order to briefly understand this authority, Huo Yuhao had to use the abilities of [Scapegoat] and [Twin Flowers] to temporarily transfer some of the damage he suffered to that guy, thereby creating a temporary vacuum in terms of authority in terms of rank.

When he comprehends the rules of destruction, this authority will still be his. He will not covet it, and he will prepare compensation for him. What he comprehends, although called a rule, is in essence above destruction.

Just as creation is not merely creation, creation and destruction are, from beginning to end, two manifestations of the same substance.
Under these circumstances, the rules needed to create a world, or rather, the rules that Huo Yuhao needed, were engraved on him one by one and grew wildly in the depths of his soul.

Different elemental rules—stars, living beings, nature, death, souls, and most importantly, the rules of creation and destruction—all began to be replicated within him.

Of course, all the other rules were easy to deal with, but the rules of creation and destruction seemed to have some kind of barrier, preventing Huo Yuhao from taking that final step.

Clearly, he would need to truly explore the world before he could glimpse its essence.

Huo Yuhao was not in a hurry. Now that he had grasped the most basic principles, he was never short of the determination to take risks and try new things.

This process will inevitably be lengthy. The "Breaking Ten Thousand Laws" is now capable of obliterating the power of rules, and it has taken on a completely new form of use in the current situation.

Huo Yuhao was not satisfied with merely inscribing these rules; he needed to digest and absorb them, to thoroughly comprehend them. Therefore, it was necessary to use the [Breaking Ten Thousand Laws] to wear them down, and then replicate them with the help of the [Madman]'s echo, thus performing a bug-like operation.

Furthermore, the interplay of [Strong Luck] and [Destiny], along with the stimulation of [Heavenly Movement], allows him to be immersed in a state of enlightenment almost every moment. Therefore, the time it takes for him to comprehend these rules is greatly shortened.

At this point, Elder Yi made his move.

He manipulated the three super artifacts—the Tower of Eternity, the Heart of the Dragon God, and the Throne of Eternity and Creation—constantly controlling them to resonate with the divine power emanating from Huo Yuhao's body at that moment.

These rules and powers are originally from the same source as the three super artifacts. Even now, when they are on Huo Yuhao, they are like lying in his father's arms, each of them turning into a docile 'child'.

But that's not enough, far from enough.

Just like the three super artifacts, Huo Yuhao also needs to find a vessel for the rules of creation and destruction.

Creation and destruction are the foundation he prepared for himself, and will be a part of his body and even his soul in the future. But other rules are different; they do not need to be as firmly attached to him as creation and destruction.

With this thought in mind, the three soul cores within his body once again shone brightly, and the three soul cores slowly condensed.

Huo Yuhao mobilized all his energy and spirit, promoting the condensation of the three soul cores. Whether it was the 'essence' core that originally carried the ultimate attributes and spiritual power, or the dragon core built with the divine power of the three dragon kings as its core, together with the third soul core, they were all beginning to condense into a golden core that emitted golden light.

His body and soul became the bridge that brought them together, and the power of rules of different attributes became the foundation for building this 'skyscraper'. An unprecedented golden core, carrying different power of rules, was formed in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea.

Different colored halos circulate on it, and ripples caused by the evolution of rules can be faintly seen. It seems to be the most beautiful creation in the world, so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off it, and its dazzling brilliance is captivating.

"Is this another version of the Dragon God's Heart?"

Huo Yuhao still retained his rationality at this moment, so when he saw the golden core, he also felt a little awkward.

He realized he had accidentally created a cultivation system. Shaking his head, he understood that the most important thing was done: the rules had now been integrated into his golden core, becoming a part of him, and he had fully comprehended them.

He understood that although this golden elixir seemed no different from the Dragon God's Heart at first glance, in terms of level, the Dragon God's Heart was simply no match for it.

Even though the Heart of the Dragon God is a super artifact, it essentially only carries different elemental rules, and perhaps some rules of creation and destruction. However, compared to this golden core, which was originally formed by using it as a stepping stone and inscribing even more rules, it is still far inferior.

After completing the Golden Core, those rules that Huo Yuhao had separated from the rules of creation and destruction were completely resolved.

He no longer needs to consciously comprehend these rules; they can be nurtured within the Golden Core on their own, and then nourish him, propelling him to a higher level.

Next comes the most difficult challenge: the rules of creation and destruction. Huo Yuhao even harbors greater ambitions.

He didn't know if the upper limit of the rules of destruction was up to the God-King, but the deity in the God Realm, who was the first god to create the world, couldn't advance any further for countless years in a place like the God Realm. Did this prove that there were higher-level rules above destruction?

After briefly using the echoes of [Scapegoat] to steal the power of destruction for a period of time, Huo Yuhao had a strange feeling that the rules of destruction and the rules of creation were far from symmetrical.

Creation is a rule-based power at the creation level, while destruction is difficult to truly integrate with the rules of creation. Simply put, the two can merge, but it is difficult for them to truly become one.

What lies beyond destruction? Annihilation, or the final end of everything?

He didn't know, but at this moment in this world, the rules of destruction had indirectly proven their status. Compared to their previous arrogance, they were so quiet in the face of the still immature rules of creation.

Even the rules of destruction, which were previously more difficult for him to understand than creation itself, have become more docile and easier to comprehend than creation itself.

This is partly due to his brief usurpation of the authority over this rule, but more likely, as he thought, it's due to the asymmetry in the levels of the two rule powers.

"It seems the plan needs to be changed."

His original plan was to condense the remaining power of the rules into a golden core, leaving behind the two rules of creation and destruction to complete the creation of the world, and in the process, to echo the "Endless Life" and comprehend the rules of reincarnation, thus achieving the trinity of creation, destruction, and reincarnation.

Any one of these three rules can create a peak powerhouse at the level of a god-king. However, when all three rules are combined, along with the insights gained during the creation process, it will inevitably push his strength to the level of a creator god.

However, the rules of destruction now seem completely incompatible with creation and the cycle of reincarnation he seeks, so it is necessary to make some changes next.

However, now that he has obtained the power of destruction, he will naturally not leave it uncomprehended. Just as the rule of death propelled the birth of the rule of destruction, fully comprehending the rule of destruction now is also a preparation for comprehending the rules above it.

The Creation and Destruction Rules, which had not yet truly advanced and had been partially controlled, began to merge with Huo Yuhao's body and even soul. Because of the preparations made in the early stages and the foundation laid by the appearance of the Golden Core, the entire process that followed went quite smoothly.

After completing this stage of preparation, in addition to the rules of death and nature that he had mastered from the beginning, Huo Yuhao had once again acquired a series of laws such as elements and destruction.

With the aid of the Dragon God's Heart and the Tower of Eternity, and with the Undead Plane having fully opened up the supply of cosmic energy from the two artifacts from the very beginning, Huo Yuhao's strength has now reached the level of a God King.

This is barely enough to create a world, but it's not safe enough.

He could have simply stopped now and abandoned this insane creation plan, and still have a place in the realm of gods and in this universe.

Only by reaching this level can one understand the difference between oneself now and before. It is as if the difference is as vast as clouds and mud. Now, relying solely on the incomplete understanding of the rules of creation, he can easily crush his former self. The difficulty is not much greater than crushing an ant.

He had always thought that by mastering the two rules, even if he couldn't defeat the god-kings of the divine realm, he could still escape unscathed. Wrong, terribly wrong.

No wonder even in his weakened state, the Golden Dragon King could easily defeat that pseudo-god king with two punches. Such a difference in strength meant that the Golden Dragon King's strength had not yet recovered. If he were at his peak, he could have extinguished the little scoundrel's life with a single punch, instead of just seriously injuring him.

Similarly, a first-level god is like an ant in the eyes of a god-king, and the same applies to god-kings among themselves.

Therefore, Huo Yuhao was not satisfied; the title of God King was far from meeting his pursuit of reaching the highest level.

He will absolutely not give up on continuing down this path until the final result is revealed.

No matter how prestigious the title of Supreme God-King may sound, he is still a God-King. This realm will never be an obstacle preventing him from reaching the true pinnacle. He will surpass those losers like the Dragon God, break through this realm, and then crush them to dust.

Looking at the final bell pattern on the End Martial Soul, even though it hadn't been activated yet, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but smile.

Compared to the previous clock patterns that remained completely still, the twelfth clock pattern has now slowly begun to reveal part of its true form.

Its fluctuations will inevitably far exceed any previous echoes, and what it represents is self-evident.

Huo Yuhao is now looking forward to the moment when it will be fully unleashed in the process to come.

He could only, or rather had no choice but to place all his hopes on the final echo of the final bell.

The concept of "continuous life" is not only related to his ability to open up and comprehend the true meaning of reincarnation in the next world, but now it may also involve the end beyond destruction.

"Next, it will be a collision between two planes."

However, before that, he took out the chaotic energy he had obtained from the divine realm.

As the supreme energy in the universe, Huo Yuhao could rely on this chaotic energy, combined with the Heart of the Dragon God, to ensure that the collision between the two planes would not be swallowed up by the universe.

He wanted to do everything perfectly, leaving no room for the slightest oversight.
