Douluo Continent: The Eye of Truth

Chapter 187 Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun, Endless Fortress

After everyone understood the purpose of Huo Yuhao's plan.

The policies issued by Huo Yuhao were naturally passed down through the ranks.

The policy was implemented quite smoothly, since those who were unwilling to comply were excluded by the Douluo Council.

However, the Douluo Council currently controls a large area and population.

Even if a policy is implemented without any resistance, it will still take time to be fully rolled out and implemented.

It will still take a considerable amount of time, although Huo Yuhao has already planned all the steps in the meantime.

Every detail, including the connection with the far north and the Star Dou Great Forest, was part of Huo Yuhao's plan.

Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao began preparing for the upcoming counter-invasion of the Abyss Plane.

Endless mountain ranges.

This place is located in the western part of the Douluo Continent, a sparsely populated area.

At this moment, all was silent, and the soul beasts living in the mountains dared not make a sound.

I'm afraid we've offended those powerful beings who reside high in the heavens.

Huo Yuhao, the Silver Dragon King, Du Busi who has advanced to the quasi-god level, and Kong Deming who has perfected the level 10 soul tool.

The four of them arrived at the Endless Mountains ahead of time, while the Douluo Council also dispatched elite troops.

However, those elite troops were still on their way, waiting for Huo Yuhao and his team to complete their reconnaissance before being deployed.

"Let's evacuate the soul beasts living in this mountain range first," Huo Yuhao said.

He then looked at Gu Yuena beside him and asked, "Is there still room for them in the Star Dou Great Forest?"

Gu Yuena nodded: "Yes, many soul beasts have left the Star Dou Great Forest because of their contracts."

"Those vacant territories are just the right space for these endless mountain spirit beasts to live in."

"Then go and inform Di Tian, ​​and tell him to prepare to take over."

Huo Yuhao's figure disappeared from the spot and then appeared in the middle of the Endless Mountains.

"Leave the relocation to me."

Gu Yuena nodded, and her figure also disappeared, presumably returning to the Star Dou Great Forest.

An invisible force began to spread from Huo Yuhao into the endless mountains below.

Understanding, decomposition, and reconstruction.

The soul beasts touched by Huo Yuhao's power were directly deconstructed into pure energy.

Then, under Huo Yuhao's will, these energies used Gu Yuena's location as an anchor point.

The existence of these soul beasts was reconstructed, and in the blink of an eye, the entire endless mountain range was 'emptied'.

This is the 'demigod' realm that Huo Yuhao defined for himself.

If he were to exert his full power, the power of the Eye of Truth would be enough to radiate throughout the entire Douluo Continent, and even the entire Douluo Star.

And this small test of his abilities in the endless mountains is merely the tip of the iceberg of his full power.

Soon, Gu Yuena returned, but Huo Yuhao looked calm and collected, as if it were just something he did casually.

At this moment, she was also somewhat amazed. Of course, she could also do what Huo Yuhao had just demonstrated.

But that was when she used power equivalent to that of a first-level deity to propel herself and to manipulate the spatial elements of her location to the greatest extent possible.

The indiscriminate transfer achieved in this way is far superior to Huo Yuhao's extremely refined decomposition and reconstruction.

The differences between them are not small.

This is also why Gu Yuena could never see through Huo Yuhao; given her status, it was difficult for her to comprehend his abilities.

After all, for the naturally powerful dragon race, using their innate authority is simply a way of controlling their instincts.

Even the Dragon God is merely stuck on how to strengthen and develop his innate talents.

What they pursue is always their inner self, not the entire external world.

In terms of energy utilization efficiency alone, the gap between them and Huo Yuhao is enormous.

Even the Silver Dragon King's efficiency in utilizing various types of energy within Douluo Star is at most 50% to 80%.

Huo Yuhao's current efficiency in utilizing various types of energy within Douluo Star has reached almost 100%, at 99.99%.

Unfortunately, even Huo Yuhao is now finding it almost impossible to advance that final 0.001%.

Perhaps only when the final brain region completes its transformation, and Huo Yuhao truly becomes a 'god,' will he be able to step into this realm.

100% energy efficiency represents infinite possibilities.

In Huo Yuhao's hands, water can be transformed into fire or earth without any loss.

Even if he simply uses the energy he controls for attack, Huo Yuhao can still utilize the energy loss caused by contact with the enemy.

Because the losses that occur at the macro level do not actually exist at the micro level.

Energy does not disappear; it simply transforms into another, uncontrollable form and re-exists within the world.

And this final 0.001% is the last sliver of possibility that Huo Yuhao cannot control.

Once this possibility is fully grasped, then within the Douluo Star System, and in all the cosmic planes that Douluo Star comes into contact with.

Their laws are combined, and Huo Yuhao can fully control them, forming a perpetual cycle of energy.

Getting back to the main topic, Gu Yuena asked, "What are your plans next? Will you forcefully break through the dimensional barrier?"

Huo Yuhao shook his head: "This is a bit too brutal, and breaking through the dimensional barrier will also cause some damage to Douluo Star."

"The final spatial passage will also exist within the void, or even possibly within the other plane of existence."

"In this way, playing away from home doesn't actually give us much of an advantage."

Huo Yuhao casually waved his hand, and immediately the surrounding world seemed to begin to crumble and fall apart.

"It's just a simulation, so watch carefully."

Immediately afterwards, the collapsing world turned into specks of silver light, which then connected to form blurry lines.

For the average person, it would be difficult to discern anything from this, but those present were no ordinary people.

Aside from Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena, there's also Du Busi, who has become a quasi-god level powerhouse.

Or perhaps it was to perfect the tenth-order soul tool, for Kong Deming, who had a deep understanding of space research.

They all realized that what Huo Yuhao was showing them was a model of the spatial structure.

However, there are many intricate and obscure parts in it.

However, it can generally be viewed as three parts and a whole.

"The first part is Douluo Star, which is where we are now."

Huo Yuhao pointed to an area, and then the silver dots began to converge into a picture.

It eventually manifested as a scene within an endless mountain range, which was the point of connection to another plane.

"The second part is the connection point itself, which exists both on Douluo Star and in another dimension."

"But more often they exist in the unstable gaps of the void."

Then a pitch-black, chaotic image appeared before everyone.

"Finally, there is another plane. Through my Eye of Truth, I have constructed a portion of the scenery of this plane."

Finally, the scene belonging to the Abyss Plane filled the gap in everyone's eyes, at this moment Douluo Star and the Abyss Plane were two separate entities.

The void gap and spatial passage sandwiched in the very center were revealed before everyone.

"If the spatial passage is broken open directly, the void rift will eventually disappear completely."

"At that time, the two planes will be directly adjacent without any buffer zone."

"If the battlefield had been set up on Douluo Star at that time, we would have been able to use the laws of Douluo Star itself to deal with the enemy."

"And if the battlefield opens up in the enemy's dimension..."

Huo Yuhao didn't say anything more, and everyone agreed.

"Therefore, my plan is to seize the initiative and directly establish the existence of the dimensional battlefield on Douluo Star."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena frowned: "How are you going to achieve the required difficulty level if you do it this way?"

"Should we gradually wear down the spatial barriers, while simultaneously allowing the power of Douluo Star's laws to permeate and transform the void rifts?"

"We may not have that much time left. If we were to do what you're doing, it would take at least a century, and it's uncertain whether it would take longer."

"After all, neither you nor I can be sure how much time it will take to fill in such a void without attracting the other party's attention."

Huo Yuhao nodded: "So I thought of another method, which is to first construct a small world."

"Then, when breaking through the dimensional barrier, this small world attached to Douluo Star was directly stuffed into the spatial rift."

"By using the power of the plane laws of Douluo Star, we can lay the foundation for the battlefield."

"A demiplane? If that's the case, it's quite feasible." Gu Yuena's brows relaxed.

"However, this raises a new problem: how do you ensure that this little world functions as you envision it?"

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, but didn't say anything more. He simply said, "Everything is within my calculations, so you can rest assured."

"With my abilities, even a demiplane, I can ensure its perfect reconstruction in the void."

"So you only need to be responsible for establishing the demiplane, while I am different from Douluo Star because the power of the laws within me is different."

"On the contrary, it is not advisable to get involved in this matter, otherwise it may cause loopholes in the final demiplane."

Gu Yuena nodded: "The construction of a demiplane will take at least a year, but it is indeed the best solution at present."

"Then, as you said, leave the task of constructing the demiplane to me."

Huo Yuhao then turned to Du Busi and Kong Deming: "In that case, let's get started."

"To avoid any accidents, and to facilitate the subsequent exploration of that unknown dimension."

"We also need to build a fortress at the entrance to this space passage to house troops and deal with possible counterattacks from the enemy."

Both Du Busi and Kong Deming were well aware of this, as they were practically at the pinnacle of Douluo Star at present.

They naturally knew about the existence of another dimension and what it meant to them.

This is their chance to break through; if everything goes smoothly, the door to godhood is right before their eyes!

And just like that, a year passed in the blink of an eye.

Just as Gu Yuena was using this endless mountain range as a template to construct the demiplane.

Huo Yuhao and his group, who were in the Endless Mountains, were naturally not idle either.

The entire Endless Mountain Range was covered with a dense array of soul-guiding core arrays and alchemical runes.

Combining soul tools and alchemical magic, the entire Endless Mountain Range was transformed into a massive soul tool fortress through the efforts of the Douluo Council.

Although this soul-guided fortress has not yet been activated, once activated, it could directly drain all the spiritual energy of the world in Douluo Continent and the Western Sea of ​​Douluo Continent.

With such a huge energy consumption and scale, the destructive power of this behemoth has clearly surpassed that of an ordinary level 10 soul tool.

The Douluo Council named it the True God-level War Fortress.

The True God level is equivalent to a second-level deity in the divine realm.

This fortress is powerful enough to kill even a second-level god, and this was achieved through the efforts of the entire Douluo Council.

The current pinnacle of cultivation civilization is limited by the number of powerful individuals, thus hindering further research.

However, once a large number of them come into contact with god-level powerhouses, the power output limit of this fortress can be increased.

Because, apart from using the soul-guiding core array and alchemical magic runes.

A large number of cultivators also became part of this fortress.

In peacetime, they can use this fortress to directly absorb and release the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on a large scale.

This will aid in one's cultivation, while also benefiting from the amplification provided by the fortress itself.

Experience the senses of those at a higher level of power, and use this to establish your future path.

During wartime, however, they are all able to unite their strength as one.

In addition, with Huo Yuhao's ability to crack telekinesis, the fortress was naturally equipped with a corresponding system.

The combined power of these powerful beings is transformed into psychic energy, which is then added to pure energy attacks to break through the defenses of the deities.

In addition to this, Huo Yuhao had also prepared another mode, but this mode required a true god-level powerhouse to take control of it.

This means concentrating the vast spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the mental power of many powerful individuals into one person, enabling them to unleash their power and engage in combat.

In this state, this powerful figure is like a god who has grasped the sovereign authority over the Douluo Star plane.

However, unlike the recognition it received from Douluo Star itself, its power amplification originated from the collective willpower of all living beings and the immense power of heaven and earth.

Shortly after the completion of the Endless Fortress, the demiplane created by Gu Yuena was also nearing its end.

However, compared to the completeness and potential for development of the undead demiplane, the one created by Gu Yuena is much cruder.

After all, the original intention of creating this demiplane was simply to use it as a favorable battlefield.

Furthermore, if we want to create a complete demiplane ecosystem...

The amount of effort and resources required would then be astronomical.

"That's enough, leave it to me."

After a year of continuous busy work, Gu Yuena was also somewhat tired and exhausted.

After handing over the finishing touches to Huo Yuhao, she returned to the Star Dou Great Forest to recuperate.

As Huo Yuhao unleashed his full power...

The already formed half-plane framework vanished into nothingness in an instant.

At the same time, in the void, a plane that did not exist before suddenly appeared out of thin air.

It then connected to the entrance to the spatial passage of the endless plane.

Subsequently, this demiplane continuously absorbed energy from the void rifts, expanding itself.

Gradually filling the gaps and cracks in the void.

Just as Huo Yuhao said, everything is under control.
