Over the next few days, Huo Yuhao attempted to condense a spirit ring on his own. His spirit power was already at level 20, and without a spirit ring, he could not continue to increase it.

That's right. After understanding the principles of spirit rings, he decided to try to create his own spirit ring. He had witnessed Gu Qiu'er's transformation process and had some thoughts on it.

However, after failing more than ten times, he gave up.

"It seems like something crucial is missing?" Huo Yuhao thought to himself.

So he stopped hesitating and chose to follow Gu Yuena's advice to sacrifice the soul beast. Spirit-type soul beasts are rare, but there are still some on the verge of death in the Star Dou Great Forest.

With a flash of silver light, Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena arrived at the Lake of Life.

Gu Qiu'er was seen angrily pointing at several soul beasts and roaring.

"You bunch of idiots! How can you be so stupid! I've told you so many times, and you still don't get it!"

As soon as she saw Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena, Gu Qiu'er rushed over to them.

"Yuhao, sister, are you here to pick me up? I can't take it anymore, I want to go back!"

Gu Yuena gently patted her head and said tenderly, "Okay, I'll pick you up."

He then instructed Di Tian: "Go find a ten-thousand-year-old spirit-type soul beast that is on the verge of death."

"Yes, my lord," Di Tian said respectfully, and then went to find a suitable soul beast.

Then Gu Yuena said to Huo Yuhao, "How about it? This is the essence of the Star Dou Great Forest."

"There are actually nearly a hundred soul beasts that are 100,000 years old."

Huo Yuhao looked at the densely packed soul beasts around him, but their gazes towards him were unfriendly. Perhaps it was because he was human. But he believed they would soon change their minds.

Gu Yuena proudly said, "I'll have them learn the knowledge you taught them. I'll have Di Tian supervise them, and if they still can't learn it, I'll have Xiong Jun push them harder."

"While it can't keep up with human learning speed, it's not too slow either."

Huo Yuhao nodded. So that was the main reason.

However, Huo Yuhao completely understood, so he asked about other things: "How is the metallurgical project I asked you to build coming along?"

"It's already built."

"I've finished the core components; let's install them today."

The two arrived at the factory in the distance. It was a tower-like building tens of meters high, with very rough workmanship, but after Huo Yuhao inspected it, he found that there was nothing that did not meet the requirements.

Huo Yuhao specifically instructed that they should find a secluded place that wouldn't disturb the other soul beasts.

So Di Tian and the others set their sights on gathering places of spider-like soul beasts. Firstly, these creatures preferred to live in dark, secluded places; secondly, these spiders were also annoying, considered evil beings by everyone among soul beasts.

It's worth mentioning that these spiders actually dropped several soul bones, one of which was the external soul bone, the Eight Spider Lances.

At this moment, the Eight Spider Lances were in Gu Yuena's hands.

"Give."

"No." Huo Yuhao glanced at it; he didn't want to integrate other bones into his body. But this gave him an idea.

Huo Yuhao took out several parts and installed them into the tower in order.

This is a product of the combination of imperial technology and soul tools! Huo Yuhao wrote multiple programs into it, which allows it to automatically distinguish different metals in the ore, smelt them, and package them.

Moreover, for now, soul power is sufficient as an energy source, and other energy sources can be used in the future. For now, it's just a bit of hard work for those soul beasts.

With that, the raw materials were ready. Huo Yuhao looked around at the ores that the soul beasts had mined over the past few months and nodded in approval.

Gu Yuena was also very excited. She had learned that humans were still forging iron by hammering, which meant that their efficiency was far ahead!

After waiting for a while, Di Tian brought back a soul beast, a brightly colored deer.

"A nine-colored deer?"

"Yes, my lord. This race is small in number and now lives under Brigitte's protection."

"What happened to this one? Judging from its aura, it's only lived for ten thousand years. How could it have weakened so much?"

"It is inherently flawed, and its lifespan of ten thousand years is its limit."

"Are you willing to offer yourself as a sacrifice?" Gu Yuena asked the nine-colored deer.

"Lord Di Tian said that this human is helping us, so I am willing." The Nine-Colored Deer cannot speak, but it can transmit spiritual information.

Just as the Nine-Colored Deer was being sacrificed, Di Tian took out a storage soul tool.

"My lord, this is what you asked me to investigate."

"How is the follow-up being handled?"

"I burned the database down. But it seems there are still people investigating this matter."

"Um?"

Two nights ago.

Under the cover of night, Di Tian sneaked into the White Tiger Duke's archives. As soon as he entered, he saw someone searching for something. After finding it, he recorded it using a soul tool and then left.

Di Tian took out the information that the person had been searching for and discovered that it was exactly what the master had asked him to investigate! So he put it into his storage device.

Remembering his master's instructions, he activated his soul power and burned the entire house to the ground. By the time the fire was discovered, Di Tian had already left.

The woman in black was Zhang Lexuan, who set off after Elder Mu was cured.

When she saw Huo Yuhao's information, her eyes immediately welled up with tears. So he had such a past!

The information about Huo Yuhao is limited, but Zhang Lexuan is well aware of the information hidden in those few words.

A mother and son, who were subjected to much oppression, lived in a dilapidated woodshed, where they were often hungry and poorly clothed, and were even frequently bullied by servants!

She thought of herself; she had been just as desperate back then, but fortunately, Old Master Mu saved her and even helped her avenge herself.

But what about him? He endured eleven years of such dark and hopeless days!

She thought of that calm and collected boy who selflessly shared his knowledge and occasionally showed a warm smile.

Then he thought of the poor creature huddled together with his mother for warmth in the winter, and the two figures gradually overlapped.

He helped so many people, but who helped him in return? What kind of soul resides within that emaciated body?

On her way back, she saw a small earthen mound that caught her eye. Upon closer inspection, she found it to be a solitary grave.

There were even bloodstains on the tombstone! Although they were faint, she could still see them.

She dared not imagine how Huo Yuhao had dragged his mother's body here and buried it.

She remembered that Huo Yuhao looked much thinner three months ago than he does now!

She bowed deeply to the grave.

"You have a great son!"

As dawn approached, Zhang Lexuan rushed back to Poseidon Island.

"Senior Sister!" A tall, blond man greeted her with delight.

"roll!"

Upon seeing this person, Zhang Lexuan's previously calmed emotions surged again, and the person who arrived was none other than Dai Yueheng.

Seeing that his senior sister, whom he hadn't seen for months, was treating him so badly, Dai Yueheng, who was originally in a good mood, suddenly became a little angry.

"Which bastard dared to offend Senior Sister?!"
