Douluo Continent: It Became Huo Yuhao's Golden Finger!

Chapter 143 Level 8 Shield Soul Tool! A Divine Legacy Appears!

In response to Huo Yuhao's question.

Qian Duoduo chuckled and gestured for Fan Yu to speak.

Fanyu: "."

You've already shown off all your arrogance, and now you remember me?

But faced with Huo Yuhao's inquisitive gaze, he still spoke up—

"Black gold has very poor ductility and must be absolutely pure to be effective; once mixed with other metals, it will become scrap iron."

"The most fatal thing is that it is completely unable to conduct soul power, yet it can strangely dissolve soul power."

"This means it can neither be forged into armor nor used as a soul tool component."

"So even though Wujin is troublesome for Limit Douluo, it is only an eighth-level rare metal, which is generally used to forge prisons and torture instruments to restrict high-level Soul Masters."

"However, I haven't heard of any side effects on mental power. Your mental power can most likely control it."

Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up when he heard this!
Not transmitting soul power?
Will it dissolve soul power?
What about mental power?
And
I wonder if the spiritual power of the secret clone will have the aforementioned drawbacks?
If we could be immune, wouldn't we be able to take off immediately?
Huo Yuhao was filled with countless thoughts in that instant, his eyes fixed on the black gold ore, carefully using his mental power to lift it up.

Under the watchful eyes of Qian Duoduo and Fan Yu, he revealed a genuine smile.

"No problem! There's nothing wrong with my mental energy!"

"Hahaha!" Qian Duoduo laughed loudly, "I knew it! This stuff is definitely for you! Buying it all at the package price means we've got 30% of the profits. If we can't use it, we'll be losing a fortune!"

Fan Yu's eyes also lit up as she picked up the design drawings from the workbench.

"Because this black gold can dissolve soul power, there's no need for any design."

"You can tell me what style you want, and I can make it right away."

He handed over a stack of design drawings, including styles of hand shields, folding shields, and kite-shaped shields.

However, they are all small shields, probably because the amount of black gold ore after refining is not large, and it cannot be mixed with other metals.

Huo Yuhao was pondering which one would be the best to use.

"It has to be a round shield!" Zhuge Lan strongly recommended. "It's suitable for you to fly on, and the edges can be cut after being polished. The curved surface of the shield also helps to dissipate force."

Huo Yuhao knew immediately that Brother Lan was up to something again.

"So, tell me, what's the plan this time?" Huo Yuhao asked warily. "You're not planning to spray taunts like 'Come and hit me' on the shield, are you?"

"How about we go with your idea?"

"I reject!"

"Okay, then build it according to this."

Huo Yuhao was somewhat surprised when he received the message.

He looks quite handsome.

Like Frostmourne, I guess only Blue Bro can truly appreciate its charm.

But as long as we don't die, everything else is negotiable.

Huo Yuhao picked up a pen and paper and quickly sketched the shield design, noting details such as broken edges and a simple handle added to the back.

Fan Yu glanced at it and nodded.

"Given limited materials, round shields are indeed better suited for use."

"Wait a moment, I'll get started right away."

"I was lucky to buy black gold ore. It had impurities, which made it easier to refine and shape. Otherwise, to refine the finished product, you would need extreme heat and it would take more than half a month to melt it."

"That's right! How could I have made a mistake?" Qian Duoduo said proudly, "Besides, even if we wanted the ultimate fire, our academy already has two, it just takes a little more effort."

Both of them are level eight Soul Masters, and one of them has a shield as his Martial Soul.

Needless to say, his hands-on skills are excellent.

He quickly conjured a circular shield with a diameter of 0.76 meters. The shield's surface was decorated with interlocking red and blue rings, and at its very center was a bright red five-pointed star on a blue background, reflecting a metallic luster. Huo Yuhao used his mental power to propel it back and forth in the air, emitting a sharp whistling sound as it cut through the air.

Using unforged rare metals for testing, anything below level six can be easily cut open, level seven requires slight cutting, and level eight, even with 11 times the mental power, can be embedded half a finger deep.

It works incredibly well!
[Rewrite Huo Yuhao's fate, +2500 Luck Points!]

Yo!
When Frostmourne was forged, it didn't even grant a separate Luck value.

It seems that Captain America's shield is an exceptionally good match for Huo Yuhao.

"Not bad, not bad." Qian Duoduo said with satisfaction, "It wasn't for nothing that I was taken advantage of and bought a lot of rare metals that I don't need."

"Yuhao, this is already considered an eighth-level soul tool. Let's give it a name," Fanyu reminded him.

"Oh, let's call it Captain America's Shield," Huo Yuhao blurted out.

Fan Yu and Qian Duoduo were puzzled.

Captain America?

Who is that?
Huo Yuhao said—he didn't know either!

He rode on his newly acquired Captain America shield, propelled by his telekinesis as he flew.

It's much better than before when I was pulling on my clothes; I can use my strength with peace of mind now.

Even stepping on Captain America's shield through his shoes, one could vaguely feel the difficulty in circulating the soul power under their feet.

He crouched down and touched it with his bare hands.

The soul power evaporated like a flood, and even with full concentration of mental energy, not a trace could be found.

"Brother Lan, teachers, everyone, what have you felt?"

"No, ask that guy Zhuge."

"No, but I can check using my luck value."

"It truly vanished into thin air."

"Let me see what's going on."

A bunch of spirits came out and kept touching Captain America's shield.

Huo Yuhao was in a terrible state; all of his soul power was being dissolved!

“It’s space,” Electrox said with certainty. “Those soul powers were banished outside of space, and this metal seems to be able to connect to another space, but the specific activation method is uncertain.”

"Oh?" Zhuge Lan became interested: "Let me check. Holy crap! 500 million luck points?"

"If it's this expensive, it seems this black gold holds a great secret." Huo Yuhao said in surprise, "I'm afraid I can't even touch it now. Let's wait until later."

"No rush, let me spend a little money to see if it's suitable! There's a deity on the other side!" Zhuge Lan said cheerfully, "It seems to be a method used by some deity to select successors. It's equivalent to 500 million luck points to buy a divine position."

"Can you find out which deity it is?" Tianmeng Bingcan asked with concern.

“Sure, but 10 luck points don’t seem necessary,” Zhuge Lan said. “Anyway, we can just accumulate 500 million and open it all at once.”

"What if it's an evil god?" Bajiao asked worriedly.

"Wouldn't that be perfect for Elder Yi?" Zhuge Lan said confidently. "We can rebuild Elder Yi's physical body and help him become a god in the Douluo Realm."

"I have no heart for this."

“Those were all your past selves. Now you are who you are.” Zhuge Lan interrupted, “Just like that… well, we’ll see when the time comes.”

Huo Yuhao found it strange; why was he speaking so hesitantly?
I tried to enter the spiritual world to see what was going on, but then I was blocked from entering again.

No!

you?

This is his inner world!
Do you always lock his door from the outside?
Nobody would believe you weren't plotting something!
