Douluo Continent: The Cataclysm of the Dead - Huo Yuhao

When that silver light faded, revealing that moment.

Even Huo Yuhao, after his rebirth, had his eyes suddenly narrow.

Jing Hongchen, standing to the side, even made an "O" shape with her mouth.

what is that?

A seemingly ordinary piece of silver iron.

The metal sheet is round and appears as thin as paper, radiating a soft silver glow. Most remarkably, it features openwork carvings. The intricate and regular openwork patterns are full of creativity and imagination.

No soul power fluctuations emanated from it, yet it simply existed there, possessing a unique texture as solid as a mountain. A faint silver halo flickered across its surface, the light not intense, but extremely eye-catching.

To be more precise, the tiny lines on this soul tool are filled with countless top-tier soul tool cores.

This made Huo Yuhao subconsciously raise his head.

Kong Deming chuckled and began to explain.

"This is something I created based on my natal soul tool, the Silver Moon Divine Light Shield. It's called the Silver Moon Divine Shield. When charged, it can withstand an attack at the level of a Title Douluo. Furthermore, after being attacked at this level, it can autonomously draw upon spatial power. You can control this spatial power to teleport, up to ten miles away. It's just a little gadget for your self-defense."

After realizing what was happening, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but subconsciously look at Jing Hongchen.

The reason is simple: this so-called Silver Moon Divine Illumination seems too similar to the mortal world's protection that Jin Hongchen gave himself in another time and space.

However, it is far superior in both function and appearance.

This made him wonder if Jing Hongchen's Red Dust Blessing was copied from Kong Deming's Silver Moon Divine Illumination.

Upon seeing this item, Jing Hongchen seemed to have gained inspiration, and when she saw Huo Yuhao's gaze directed at her, she felt a mixture of disappointment and frustration.

At the same time, after realizing what had happened, Huo Yuhao quickly looked at Kong Deming, knelt down respectfully, and slowly said, "Thank you for your reward, teacher."

Afterwards, Huo Yuhao carefully accepted the Silver Moon Divine Shield.

He then wore it on his chest.

Kong Deming's reason for being generous is simple: Huo Yuhao's talent is definitely that of a genius in both the martial soul and soul tool fields.

After all, although Huo Yuhao has not yet come close to mastering a soul tool, if even soul masters with spiritual attributes cannot have talent in the field of soul tool development, then all other soul masters might as well die.

The higher the level of a Soul Master, the clearer they are about how important concentration and focus of mental energy are when creating Soul Tools.

However, spirit-type soul masters have unique innate advantages.

Kong Deming chuckled softly upon seeing this, then his brows furrowed slowly as if he had thought of something.

The reason is simple: although he accepted Huo Yuhao.

However, as the head of the Hall of Offerings, he had too many things to worry about every day. In addition, he also wanted to break through to the tenth level of the domain. If he were to teach Huo Yuhao some basic soul tool domain things in the early stage...

This is somewhat troublesome, but Kong Deming is not at ease with such a talented disciple and casually entrusts him to others for instruction.

Given Jing Hongchen's own status, it's impossible for him to simply abandon the trivial matters of Mingde Hall and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy to teach Huo Yuhao.

As if seeing through Kong Deming's worries, Jing Hongchen offered his own suggestions.

"Elder Kong, you are usually very busy. Regarding Huo Yuhao's guidance in the early stages, I have a good candidate to recommend, namely your former disciple, Xuan Ziwen."

Chapter 22 A Different Xuan Ziwen

Upon hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed in Kong Deming's eyes, which had initially shown some worry.

How could he forget his former apprentice?

Then, a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes as he looked at Jing Hongchen, and he slowly said, "Then bring Ziwen over."

After nodding, Jing Hongchen left.

At the same time, Kong Deming looked at Huo Yuhao with a smile and slowly introduced him.

“Yuhao, my student has a lot of innovative ideas in his head. You can learn from him. After all, the most important thing in the field of soul tools is, to be honest, innovation.”

Huo Yuhao nodded perfunctorily, but couldn't help but recall the past.

Xuan Ziwen.

In his memory, the other party was someone who was purely passionate about the field of soul guidance.

This passion also led to the other party not caring about power or anything else at all.

The fact that he once used a bet to practically innovate soul guide devices to forcefully lure the other party away from Mingde Hall is proof enough.

The other party's focus on power is on the Soul Guidance Domain, with its various novel technologies, rather than on any particular faction or power.

Of course, despite this slight drawback, it is undeniable that the other party is still an excellent teacher.

Not long after, Jing Hongchen brought the person over directly.

He was only in his early thirties, wearing silver-rimmed glasses, and his hair was unusually neatly combed, which made Huo Yuhao raise an eyebrow. In his memory, it was rare to see the other party so formal.

Then, the two people came in.

Xuan Ziwen looked at Kong Deming with a gaze that was both fanatical and respectful, and subconsciously prepared to kneel down.

Kong Deming, however, simply used a gentle force to hold him back, and then said softly, "Ziwen, it's been so long, why are you still the same as before?"

Xuan Ziwen shook his head directly at this, and then said in a slightly enthusiastic tone, "Teacher, this is different. By the way, this is my latest research result, a concept for an all-terrain exploration soul guide device."

As he spoke, Xuan Ziwen took out the soul guide blueprint directly from his pocket.

Kong Deming accepted the document while looking at Jing Hongchen with a slightly puzzled expression.

At the same time, Jing Hongchen's voice transmission also resounded in his ears.

"Professor Kong, it's not that I don't want to talk about it or mention it, but when he heard that you wanted to see him, he got so excited that he immediately packed up his drawings and came over while muttering your name."

Hearing this, Kong Deming was not surprised, after all, he still had some impression and understanding of his disciple.

Afterwards, Kong Deming took the soul guide blueprint from Xuan Ziwen and looked at it for a while, his eyes filled with emotion.

"It's a good direction, go and try it out."

After being shadowed by Kong Deming, Xuan Ziwen nodded his head like a rattle-drum.

At that moment, Kong Deming coughed lightly and began to introduce them.

"Ziwen, this is my newly accepted disciple, who can also be considered your junior brother, Huo Yuhao. He is a very special Soul Master."

This piqued Xuan Ziwen's curiosity, and he couldn't help but look at his so-called new junior brother.

The shock and surprise in his eyes were palpable.

It should be noted that Kong Deming is, to be precise, the pinnacle of the Soul Master field at present.

Generally speaking, accepting a disciple requires the other party to demonstrate absolute talent in the field of soul tools before even considering it, just like when I was young. But Huo Yuhao is clearly only about six years old.

Whether or not one has ever used a soul tool is a question.

Why would his master, Kong Deming, choose to accept him as a disciple?

Soon, Huo Yuhao chuckled at Xuan Ziwen, giving his answer.

When the Myriad Soul Banner martial spirit was summoned, and the power of the dead and the power of light carried by that yin wind merged into one person, Xuan Ziwen was dumbfounded.

Can these two forces be combined?

Then, looking at the first ring of a thousand years beneath Huo Yuhao's feet, he gasped in shock.

Not to mention the history of the Sun Moon Empire, even among the so-called Three Kingdoms of the Primitive Continent, none of the powerful Soul Master geniuses had ever absorbed the first ring of a thousand years.

However, this can only prove Huo Yuhao's extraordinary talent.

After the wisp of soul in the Myriad Souls Formation merged with the thousand-year-old soul ring, it transformed into the guardian spirit light and shadow deer.

He was speechless with astonishment, and Huo Yuhao slowly began to introduce the situation.

"My martial soul is a bit special. After absorbing a soul beast, it will completely absorb the corpse along with it and then transform it into this form."

After realizing what was happening, Xuan Ziwen looked at Huo Yuhao with curiosity, and at that moment he finally understood why his teacher had said that Huo Yuhao was a very special existence.

Although the appearance of the martial spirit gives people the feeling of an evil soul master, the light power and the trace of resentment on its body are not the guardian spirit summoned by the summoned spirit, and it can break through this so-called perception.

It was indeed quite unique, and then after reflecting on it carefully...

At that moment, he finally understood why his teacher had chosen to take Huo Yuhao as his disciple.

It could sense these two powerful attributes, but they were not the most outstanding aspects of Huo Yuhao. What was most outstanding was his mental strength.

This proves that these two powerful attributes are not even the main attributes of Huo Yuhao's martial soul, but rather spirit is.

It is important to know that spirit-type soul masters do indeed possess unique talents in the field of soul mastery.

With his current level fourteen soul power, he is indeed a top-tier prodigy.

Moreover, he will most likely make achievements in the field of Soul Master in the future.

So, after realizing what was happening, Xuan Ziwen seemed to understand something and patted his chest, saying, "Teacher, don't worry, I will teach my junior brother some basic concepts properly."

After nodding with a light laugh, Kong Deming couldn't help but add another comment.

"In two years, you will be able to join the Experiment One Project."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Ziwen trembled all over, staring at Kong Deming's face as if struck by lightning. After a long while, he managed to suppress his surprise.

There's no way around it; for all the Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire, the greatest achievement, or rather, the one they most want to join right now, is Project Subject One. It's a humanoid Soul Tool created by gathering the hard work of most of the current Level 9 Soul Masters. Even though it's only a half-finished product, as long as they make a small contribution to this project, they're welcome to join.

These blueprints are the best reward for an eighth-level Soul Master; looking at them even a little bit will bring great benefits.

So, Xuan Ziwen almost knelt down again, and then stammered when facing Kong Deming, not even knowing how to speak. Only after Kong Deming allowed him to leave did he smile and look at Huo Yuhao, until the two of them disappeared from the office.

The moment Kong Deming looked out the window, his eyes flashed with a myriad of emotions.

"Mirror of the Mortal World, I'm afraid I might be a little overwhelmed..."

Upon hearing this, Jing Hongchen couldn't help but stiffen, her eyes filled with astonishment.

It should be noted that, in theory, Kong Deming is currently at the peak of a level nine Soul Master.

Furthermore, with the addition of her natal soul tool, it can be said that even if she encounters a Limit Douluo, she will be able to overcome the challenge.

They all have the qualifications to maneuver.
