Douluo Continent: The Incarnation of a Divine Beast, Sister Huo Yutong!

Chapter 27 Divine Power Lines
The following day, early morning, at the gates of Shrek City.

"Le Xuan, come with me quickly, let's go see Elder Mu!"

Xuanzi rubbed the oil-stained corner of his clothes, his eyes filled with undisguised amusement.

"If those old guys knew your current situation, they'd jump for joy, wouldn't they?"

In the end, Elder Xuan burst into laughter.

The laughter was deafening to the ears of the passersby, but when they saw the group wearing Shrek robes, their anger was replaced by respect.

Xuanzi glanced at the solemn expressions of everyone, his smile suddenly froze, he snorted coldly, took out a fragrant chicken leg from his pocket, and began to eat it viciously.

Zhang Lexuan lowered her eyes to avoid Xuanzi's gaze. The morning light fell on her white fingertips, making them sparkle with a unique brilliance.

Looking at Huo Yuhao beside her, Zhang Lexuan showed a hint of apology on her face.

She took Huo Yuhao's small hand, squatted down, and whispered:
"Yuhao, just bring your family directly to Shrek Academy later..."

"I'll speak with the head of the foreign language department..."

Huo Yuhao had already revealed all about his situation beforehand, and Zhang Lexuan also knew that he had a younger sister and mother living in Shrek City.

"Don't worry, Sister Lexuan!"

Huo Yuhao patted Zhang Lexuan on the shoulder and said confidently.

The boy's pretentious mature demeanor made Zhang Lexuan cover her mouth and chuckle.

But then she remembered that she was going to meet Old Master Mu, and her heart tightened.

Back then, Elder Mu saved her from being slaughtered by evil spirit masters. In return, she became the child bride of Elder Mu's great-grandson, Bei Bei.

After years of getting along, she had long noticed that Beibei was somewhat resistant, but in the end, she was the one who made the mistake first.

Thinking about what happened between her and Xiao Yuhao, Zhang Lexuan felt increasingly flustered.

How should she face Elder Mu now?
Seemingly sensing Zhang Lexuan's panic, Huo Yuhao grabbed Zhang Lexuan's hand, and a cool sensation flowed between their hands.

Stimulated by this icy sensation, Zhang Lexuan's initially agitated state gradually calmed down.

After doing all this, Huo Yuhao let go of Zhang Lexuan's hand and then smiled as he said goodbye.

"See you later, Sister Lexuan!"

Seeing Huo Yuhao's smiling face, Zhang Lexuan's resolve grew stronger.

Even if it's just for Xiao Yuhao, she has to try!
After responding, Zhang Lexuan looked at Xuanzi, who had been waiting impatiently.

"Elder Xuan, let's go!"

Xuanzi withdrew his gaze from Huo Yuhao, then wiped his hands with his greasy sleeve. A vast amount of soul power rose around him, and he flew towards the Sea God Pavilion with Zhang Lexuan in his arms.

On the other side, after separating from the Shrek Academy members, Huo Yuhao wanted to go straight home, but there were too many people nearby, so he had to find a quiet place.

After taking only a few steps, Huo Yuhao suddenly stopped and looked into the distance.

He saw a familiar figure.

A young girl was huddled in the shadow of the stone steps in the distance.

The girl's face was as pale as snow, her light blue outfit had turned ashen, and beneath her messy hair were a pair of lifeless eyes.

Huo Yuhao hesitated for a moment, but in the end he quickly stepped forward.

"Tang Ya?"

Seemingly hearing her own name, the girl turned her head blankly, and color gradually returned to her pale face.

Upon seeing Huo Yuhao, a glimmer of light returned to Tang Ya's empty, despairing eyes.

She suddenly stood up, hugged Huo Yuhao tightly, and a hoarse sob escaped her throat, which had been silent for a long time:

"The Tang Clan... is gone... completely gone..."

"Mother...Father...both..."

She seemed too weak; a few words had exhausted all her strength. Tang Ya curled up helplessly in Huo Yuhao's arms, like an abandoned little animal.

Seeing the once energetic and lively Tang Ya transformed into this state, Huo Yuhao paused for a moment before finally lowering his hand to comfort the girl in his arms.

It seems that Tang Ya and her parents still didn't heed Huo Yuhao's advice, and the Tang Clan was destroyed by the Iron Blood Sect in conjunction with the city's guards, just like in the original story.

Even judging from the timeline, the destruction of the Tang Clan occurred after Tang Ya returned from Shrek City.

Looking at Tang Ya, trembling in his arms, Huo Yuhao gently comforted her while pondering. It was all too much of a coincidence…

The Heaven Dou City where the Tang Sect is located is not far from Shrek City. How did Tang Ya, who is not particularly strong, manage to get there smoothly?
Moreover, he encountered Tang Ya as soon as he returned to Shrek City. The series of coincidences made it hard not to think of the work of that Buddha Tang.

Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes, and a white light flashed across his chest.

It was a pale gray stone slab with irregularly shaped stones at its four corners and a milky white gemstone inlaid in the center. The texture on the surface of the stone slab was delicate and unique, like some kind of ancient symbols intertwined.

Legendary Slabs—Arzeus, the primordial power of all slabs!

Legend has it that the stone tablet, while preventing Huo Yuhao from mastering the limits of a certain attribute, granted him the unique ability to see through the essence of all things.

With the blessing of the legendary stone tablet, the world before Huo Yuhao's eyes underwent tremendous changes.

All objects, no longer bound by shape, transform into lines of different colors.

Lines of various colors intertwine to form all things in the world.

Huo Yuhao squinted and saw a thick golden line on Tang Ya's body, which was covered with various colored lines, radiating intense energy.

The lines start above Tang Ya's head and extend all the way to the horizon.

This gold line is thicker and more prominent than the lines of other colors.

If Huo Yuhao's guess is correct, this golden line is the divine power that Tang Buddha used to control the Douluo World!

He cannot directly descend to the mortal realm to interfere, otherwise he would be discovered by the God of Destruction, so he can only cast down his divine power to influence the development of the world from the side.

Tang Ya's ability to travel alone from Tian Dou City to Shrek City and meet him here was definitely influenced by Tang Buddha.

Huo Yuhao carefully observed and confirmed that Tang Ya only had this one strand of soul power and no remaining soul essence. A smile appeared on his lips.

That makes sense; even if Tang Buddha was a god-king, he couldn't separate too many divine souls.

Wang Dong'er and Haotian Sect are the only two places where Huo Yuhao can be certain that a divine soul exists.

Since there is no divine soul, even if this divine power disappears, Buddha Tang would not know, right?
After all, Tang Ya was just a minor sect leader of the Tang Clan!

Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao stretched out his right hand, which was wrapped in white mist, and suddenly grabbed the golden line.

"Hey!"

The moment Huo Yuhao touched the golden lines, a sharp pain shot through his right hand.

Although Huo Yuhao could decompose this divine power into its original source power with the blessing of the legendary stone tablet, the gap between him and Tang Buddha was too great.

The speed of decomposition could not keep up with the speed of divine erosion. The golden lines exploded into countless points of light, instantly merging into his flesh and blood, and his palm disappeared bit by bit.

However, the intense pain did not deter Huo Yuhao; instead, it fueled his competitive spirit.

Not only can we not defeat Tang Buddha, but we can't even deal with the wisp of divine power he left behind.

"Disappear!"

Huo Yuhao gritted his teeth, stretched out his left hand, and fiercely grabbed that golden divine power.

Intense white light enveloped the golden lines. With hands clenched tightly, the decomposition speed doubled, but it still couldn't keep up with the speed of divine power's erosion.

Under the golden light, Huo Yuhao's hand shrank, and a large amount of flesh was melted away by divine power, revealing pale bones.

Faced with such a terrifying situation, Huo Yuhao did not back down, but silently took a bottle of medicine.

After taking a bottle of good medicine, Huo Yuhao's hand returned to normal.

"Come on, let's see who can outlast whom!"

Huo Yuhao's eyes hardened as he stared intently at the golden lines above Tang Ya's head.

While divine power is indeed formidable, without replenishment, how could it possibly defeat Huo Yuhao?

Soon, the thick line gradually became thinner and eventually disappeared completely.

In the instant the divine power was completely disintegrated, Huo Yuhao seemed to catch a glimpse of a middle-aged man holding a harpoon.

"Heh~"

Huo Yuhao smiled contemptuously, letting the divine power before him dissipate.

Although he could put it into the gene wedge to turn it into resources, Huo Yuhao had no desire to get involved with Tang Buddha.

Huo Yuhao felt that using his divine power would taint his pure mind and body.
