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

But then, a deeper and more pressing question arose in my mind:

If that's the case, then what level of god is Huo Yuhao reincarnated?

Gu Yuena recalled intently—ten thousand years ago, the pupil-shaped artifact hidden between Huo Yuhao's eyebrows emitted a fluctuation level similar to that of a second-level deity's artifact-level creation.

However, despite inheriting all the wisdom and memories of the Dragon God, she had never seen such a powerful artifact in the records of the divine realm.

What concerned her even more was that the actual power of that artifact far surpassed that of the "Golden Dragon Spear," which was of the same level.

If we also consider the suppression of the laws of the Douluo Continent, and the fact that the artifact was most likely forged by Huo Yuhao himself in the lower realm using soul guidance technology...

Gu Yuena's gaze darkened slightly, and she had already made up her mind.

The one who can break through the dimensional barriers and create such an extraordinary artifact must be someone whose status is definitely not limited to a second-level god.

Huo Yuhao's true origins are at least at the level of a first-level god—otherwise, there would be no way to explain such heaven-defying abilities!

As for whether Huo Yuhao might be the reincarnation of a god-king, Gu Yuena could not say for sure.

The wisp of divine consciousness she sensed was indeed not at a high level—but the suppression of the laws of the Douluo plane had to be taken into account.

Gu Yuena herself is the best reference: even in her state before her divine consciousness was healed and she was restored to human form, she could only exert one or two percent of the power of a God-King in this plane, which is about the same as the level of a second-level god.

Although Huo Yuhao's divine sense was only comparable to that of a divine official, he was now in a state of having lost all his cultivation and starting over from scratch, which was completely different from her situation before she was reborn as a human.

Therefore, Gu Yuena was certain that Huo Yuhao's true status before his reincarnation was at least that of a first-level deity.

As for whether he was once a top-tier god or a god-king who surpassed all other gods...

At present, this remains a mystery that she cannot see through.

In any case, Gu Yuena now understands that from this moment on, she must treat Huo Yuhao with sufficient respect and interact with him with caution and even friendliness as much as possible.

After all, as the Silver Dragon King, her peak strength was only equivalent to a first-level deity with the spiritual power of a God-King and a cultivation level equivalent to a half-step God-King.

Once her thoughts had settled, when she looked up at Huo Yuhao again, her gaze held less scrutiny and more solemnity:

"...I understand. But I wonder why you didn't ascend to the divine realm ten thousand years ago after your reincarnation?"

Upon hearing this, all the "spectators" in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Huo Yuhao: I've finally fallen for it...

The fact that Gu Yuena could say those words meant that she had let down her initial guard and scrutiny—she had been successfully fooled by Huo Yuhao.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao could finally relax and had enough confidence to have a friendly exchange with the Silver Dragon King who had been reborn as a human.

Therefore, Huo Yuhao remained calm, smiled slightly, and then asked in return:

"Before answering Miss Gu's question, I'd like to ask you a question in return—why have you remained in the mortal realm and never gone to the realm of gods?"

Gu Yuena was taken aback upon hearing this, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.

Since he knew he was the Silver Dragon King, how could he not know the rejection of her, a dragon goddess, by the divine realm?

Unless… his question wasn't really asking for a reason, but rather implying something:

His situation was actually no different from hers.

Could it be that Huo Yuhao failed to ascend to the God Realm ten thousand years ago because he was rejected by the gods there?

That's why he reappeared here today, ten thousand years later, after the realm of gods had already disappeared.

Upon realizing this, Gu Yuena felt a sudden sense of relief.

At the same time, an indescribable excitement quietly welled up—like a person who has been fighting alone for too long finally seeing his comrades-in-arms in the long, dark night.

Gu Yuena: So you're not human either!

Although Gu Yuena couldn't be sure whether Huo Yuhao was a reincarnation of a beast god from another world like her, which was why he was rejected by the divine realm.

Regardless, she didn't pursue the question further, but instead buried her excitement at not needing to find the answer any longer, wanting to wait for time to confirm it later.

At that moment, the door to the private room was gently pushed open, and a waiter came in carrying the dishes.

His movements were practiced and quiet as he placed several exquisite dishes on the table one by one, and then politely withdrew.

Huo Yuhao picked up his cutlery, not continuing the previous topic, but instead looked up at Gu Yuena and asked gently:

"Shall we have our meal first, Miss Ko?"

"……good."

Gu Yuena responded softly.

Actually, she didn't have much of an appetite at the moment because of Huo Yuhao's situation.

However, it is essential to maintain proper etiquette in front of this reincarnated deity with a special status.

As Gu Yuena gently used her chopsticks to put the fish meat she picked up into her mouth, Huo Yuhao had already devoured several mouthfuls of rice.

After swallowing the food in his mouth, Huo Yuhao continued to ask:

"To be honest, I'm quite curious, why did Miss Gu choose to reincarnate as a human?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena, who was carefully chewing her food, lowered her eyes and fell silent.

Huo Yuhao's question was undoubtedly sensitive and very difficult to answer.

She couldn't help but recall Huo Yuhao's initial words about "frank conversation," and also realized another problem:

Since it's highly likely she won't have to be his enemy in the future, how much trust should she place in this reincarnated deity right now?

Undoubtedly, for Gu Yuena, who bears such a heavy responsibility for the future of the soul beasts and the dragon race, this is a question that deserves her deep consideration.

Therefore, after much deliberation, Gu Yuena decided to answer Huo Yuhao's question from the angle of "being rejected by the divine realm," a topic that had been discussed earlier:

"Lord Lingbing Douluo should also be aware of the constraints imposed on us by the laws governing the Douluo position."

Gu Yuena parted her red lips slightly and spoke frankly about one of the reasons she chose to reincarnate as a human:

"Therefore, in order to break free from the constraints of different planes, I chose to try to rebuild the shattered position of a god in human form."

"After all, if one possesses god-level power but lacks a divine position, one cannot remain in the lower realms, nor can one carve out a place of one's own in the vast universe, such as the God Realm."

After listening, Huo Yuhao nodded thoughtfully, then smiled calmly.

"Miss Gu is right. It's quite a coincidence—now that the realm of gods has disappeared, certain visions have vanished as well, and I, too, am somewhat interested in that divine position."

"Some perspectives" refers to...

After capturing this keyword, Gu Yuena's mind immediately began to race.

Therefore, it's highly likely that the ones standing against Huo Yuhao, preventing him from ascending to the God Realm, are certain deities within the God Realm...
