Douluo Continent: Outwitting the Ceiling of Wisdom - Yuhao Faks His Death for Ten Thousand Years

After making arrangements for his affairs, Huo Yuhao felt relieved and resolutely began his plan to fake his death.

At the cost of igniting the spiritual core of his first martial soul, the Spirit Eye, Huo Yuhao staged a spectacular show at an altitude of ten thousand meters in the far north, depicting an extreme powerhouse desperately trying to break through the threshold of godhood, only to ultimately fail with no chance of survival.

The drastic shift in the balance of the Yin-Yang complementary three soul cores not only caused Huo Yuhao's cultivation level to plummet by four levels, falling to his limit, but also almost completely burned away all of his life force.

If Huo Yuhao relaxes his control over the three Yin-Yang complementary soul cores within his body even slightly, causing the system to become severely unstable, he will instantly explode and die.

Of course, Huo Yuhao didn't want to turn his fake death into a real one.

Therefore, just as his spiritual core was about to burn out completely and his life force was about to dissipate completely, Elder Yi, who was already prepared, immediately made his move.

Elder Yi swiftly unleashed the highest-level necromancy, precisely simulating the deathly aura that Huo Yuhao should have possessed when he fell, in order to conceal the secrets of heaven.

At the same time, he fused the pre-prepared spiritual gold with Huo Yuhao's broken body, forcibly keeping the last glimmer of life alive.

The six soul spirits—Tianmeng, Xuedi, Bingdi, Bajiao, Liya, and Xiaobai—who had been waiting for orders, immediately stepped in to help Huo Yuhao stabilize the balance of the Yin-Yang complementary dual soul cores that had been transformed into the "Dual Star System."

After completing all this, Elder Yi immediately took Huo Yuhao and quickly fled back to the undead demiplane.

When the will of the plane sensed the deathly aura of Huo Yuhao, a powerhouse at the pinnacle of strength, and confirmed that Huo Yuhao's body no longer existed in this plane, it could only regretfully withdraw the power of destiny he possessed as the chosen one.

Tang San, far away in the God Realm, was greatly shocked to realize that the power of destiny he had been paying attention to had disappeared.

After his divine sense swept across the entire Douluo plane in disbelief, he could only confirm the fact that Huo Yuhao had unfortunately perished while trying to break through to the god level.

"Damn it! ...I never expected this chosen one to be so stubborn, refusing to serve this God-King even at the cost of his life. He's utterly foolish! Alas!"

"Fortunately, as long as I'm not recruited by that guy who's already on the path to destruction, it won't significantly affect my long-term plan..."

Thus, Douluo Continent's strategy of outwitting the unparalleled genius Yuhao through a fake death plan was a complete success.

Within the undead demiplane, Huo Yuhao, whose life force was continuously recovering with the help of the Life Gold, finally breathed a sigh of relief after noticing the dissipation of his luck power.

Finally, he was no longer the protagonist in the Douluo Continent who was both made and bound by fate, and he gained his freedom!

Here, the three members of the Hongchen family had already entered the hibernation pod and begun to sleep.

Now, because his spiritual core has been completely burned out, Huo Yuhao's spiritual power cultivation level has dropped significantly.

The Spirit Eye Martial Soul is the only one with the first spirit ring belonging to the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm Spirit, the sixth spirit ring belonging to the Liya Spirit, and the eighth and ninth spirit rings belonging to the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord Spirit.

Indeed, as early as when Huo Yuhao broke through to the level 80 cultivation level, under the possession of Electrolux after his divine sense had recovered to a certain extent, he led the Sun and Moon Army, Elder Kong, the turned Long Xiaoyao, and Xue Di who had not yet formed a soul contract with Huo Yuhao, to flatten the Demon Forest and destroy the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord and the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters.

As a transmigrator, Huo Yuhao had long foreseen the Evil Eye's desire to possess him, and he had already made preparations to take the initiative.

With the help of Elder Yi, he easily subdued its remnant soul, forcibly formed a soul contract with it, and destroyed its independent consciousness.

Getting back to the main point, the burning out of the spiritual core will not only cause Huo Yuhao's first martial soul cultivation level to return to the state before he had the spiritual core.

During the burning of the spiritual core, the severe instability of the circulation of the first martial soul's power within his body affected most of Huo Yuhao's first martial soul's cultivation, causing it to burn out along with the spiritual core.

But at this moment, Huo Yuhao's advantage as a twin martial soul owner was perfectly demonstrated.

Because his second martial soul, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, with its ultimate ice attribute, was still present, Huo Yuhao's overall cultivation level only dropped by four levels, and his mental strength level did not decline too much. He could still survive for ten thousand years without any problems by relying on hibernation.

Moreover, during hibernation, Huo Yuhao's cultivation would naturally dissipate slowly.

From this perspective, considering the most well-known cultivation advantage of twin martial soul masters, the disappearance of six ordinary soul beast rings from the first martial soul, the Spirit Eye, might...

This is an absolutely fantastic thing.

At this moment, within the undead demiplane, Huo Yuhao walked shakily toward the hibernation pod, his body extremely weak.

Before entering hibernation, Huo Yuhao needed to check the operation of the hibernation pod and whether there were any problems with the fusion energy source that could power the hibernation pod for ten thousand years.

That's right, Huo Yuhao had already developed the Source Fusion technology in this era—and it was even controllable—thousands of years ahead of the Douluo Federation in the original work.

However, because the rare metal forging technology in the Douluo Continent era was still backward, the extraction rate of the source was very poor, and it was far from being put into application.

Huo Yuhao consumed a large amount of rare metals, almost emptying half of the Sun Moon Empire's rare metal reserves, before he could barely extract enough source energy for the five of them to hibernate for ten thousand years.

After confirming that there were no problems, Huo Yuhao immediately entered the hibernation pod and began a slumber that would last for ten thousand years...

……

Beneath the core of the far north lies the "Secret Realm of Eternal Slumber".

Ten thousand years ago, after the two Ice and Snow Emperors disappeared one after another, the absolute ruler of the far north became the ferocious beast chieftain of the Titan Snow Demon clan, the Titan Snow Demon King.

This cave, "Eternal Slumber Realm," built in the very heart of the far north and located beneath the frozen earth, is the entrance that the Titan Snow Demon King meticulously prepared for Huo Yuhao's awakening from the undead demiplane ten thousand years later. It is situated where the gate to the undead demiplane is about to open.

As the absolute ruler of the far north, he was ordered by the Ice and Snow Emperors and Huo Yuhao ten thousand years ago to guard this place for ten thousand years, and he dared not leave it for even a moment.

Apart from Titan Snow Demon King, no one knows what this current sole ruler of the far north is holding onto.

However, thanks to the protection of the Spirit Pagoda for ten thousand years, the two major habitats of soul beasts, the Star Dou Great Forest and the Far North, have hardly suffered any damage from humans.

Above the Eternal Sleep Realm, a blizzard swept across this land located at the northernmost tip of the planet, and amidst the snow and wind, the silhouette of a colossal beast could be faintly seen.

It is almost 150 meters tall, and even when it sits cross-legged in this forbidden zone of life, it is like a pillar of heaven and earth that seems to reach the sky.

Its appearance is very similar to that of a human, with long arms and long white hair all over its body.

Its face was similar, except that it had many wrinkles on its forehead, bluish-gray skin, and two huge fangs.

This is the Titan Snow Demon King, who easily survived the next tribulation after consuming a small amount of Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow bestowed upon him by Huo Yuhao ten thousand years ago, and has become a three-hundred-thousand-year-old ferocious beast ten thousand years later.

"When will my lord finally...?"

Beneath the wind and snow, the Titan Snow Demon King murmured softly, his massive form appearing forlorn against the vast sky.

Ten thousand years is neither a long nor a short time for a ferocious beast.

After becoming the sole ruler of the far north, the Titan Snow Demon King felt no joy.

Compared to these lonely and desolate days, and the increasing need to be wary of the threat posed by human forces to the far north, he longed for the old days when he had the Ice and Snow Emperors and masters like Huo Yuhao as his leaders.

Just as Titan Snow Demon King was reminiscing about his glorious past, he suddenly trembled and abruptly turned his gaze to the location of the Eternal Slumber Secret Realm.

"!"

His lips trembled slightly, but he was completely speechless, only able to express the immense joy he felt at that moment in silence.

Just now, he sensed an energy fluctuation emanating from the Eternal Sleep Realm—the aura of the gate to the undead demiplane reopening!

Titan Snow Demon King immediately stood up, and the earth began to tremble with his movement.

Immediately, this supreme ferocious beast knelt down respectfully in the direction of the exit of the Eternal Sleep Secret Realm.

He lowered his head, and two streams of hot tears flowed down his ashen face:

"You're finally back..."

……

On the other side, a figure much smaller than the Titan Snow Demon King slowly emerged from the Eternal Slumber Realm.

"The time for ten thousand years has come..."

"I, Huo Yuhao, am back!"
