Chapter 390: Using Technology to Defeat the Gods
In the video, Elder Ye continued, "Given your current predicament, trying to break free through cultivation alone is almost impossible. At this point, your only option is to rely on external forces."
"External forces?" Huo Yuhao's interest was piqued.
Elder Ye continued, "In our world, Abyssal invasions were a common occurrence. To better combat them, while we focused on cultivation, we never neglected the development of soul tools. Under the immense pressure of external threats, soul tools had already advanced to levels beyond your wildest imagination."
"How powerful are they?" Huo Yuhao couldn't help but ask.
"The most destructive soul tools can obliterate entire stars with ease," Elder Ye said casually. "In other words, if you were to fire such a soul tool at the God Realm… it would cease to exist."
"Hiss! Soul tools have evolved to that level?!" Huo Yuhao gasped, his face filled with shock. "But wouldn't operating such a weapon require at least God King level power?"
"God King? Why would you need God King level power?" Elder Ye asked in surprise.
Huo Yuhao responded naturally, "Because the stronger a soul tool is, the more powerful the user must be to fully unleash its strength."
"It seems that in your world, soul tool technology is still extremely primitive," Elder Ye sighed. "In our world, soul tools no longer rely on a person's cultivation level to function they are powered by independent energy cores. Even an ordinary person with no cultivation can operate a soul tool and use it to kill gods."
Livestream Chat Explodes.
[Impossible!]
[How can a soul tool function without soul power?!]
[So you're saying even a commoner, as long as they have a powerful soul tool, can easily kill a top tier soul master?!]
[I've never imagined such an absurd concept!]
[If the Sun Moon Empire had used this kind of technology during their invasion, the outcome of the war would've been completely unpredictable.]
[Exactly! If soul tools can be used without a cultivation requirement, even ordinary people could stand on equal footing with high ranking soul masters.]
[Ridiculous! Soul tools are heretical they should be completely banned!]
The chat was flooded with reactions, and many viewers were utterly shocked by the soul tools Elder Ye described.
God Realm.
Tang San and the other gods were equally stunned by Elder Ye's words. The civilizations under the God Realm's rule had indeed dabbled in technological advancements, but all their inventions were designed to support cultivation, never surpassing it. As a result, the most advanced weapons they had ever seen couldn't even harm a god.
But now, the soul tools Elder Ye described completely shattered their understanding.
A group of mere mortals, without comprehending the laws of the universe, could kill gods using something as ridiculous as technology?!
Unbelievable!
In the Video.
"Soul tools… can really work like this?" Huo Yuhao was deeply captivated. This was an entirely new path he had never even considered.
Soul tools just by their name alone were tools designed for soul masters. They had always required soul power to function.
But now, someone was telling him that there existed soul tools that didn't require soul power at all.
Even an ordinary person could use them… even to slay gods?!
This revelation left Huo Yuhao completely shaken.
It was as if a door to an entirely new world had been thrown open before him.
Just as he thought he was about to see the light at the end of the tunnel that he could use this superior soul tool technology to crush his enemies and take his revenge Elder Ye poured a bucket of cold water over his excitement.
"Don't get too excited just yet."
"The world I came from had a highly advanced soul engineer civilization… but I myself am not a specialist in this field. The only help I can provide is in concepts, ideas, and general development directions. The rest is up to you."
Huo Yuhao's face froze.
But soon, his fighting spirit ignited once again!
Even if he couldn't directly obtain this cutting edge soul tool technology, if he could gain insight into its core concepts and higher level development strategies, then with his expertise in soul tools, he might be able to replicate the technology Elder Ye described!
What was the difference between researching blindly and having a blueprint?
Elder Ye was providing him with a clear research direction. As long as he followed this path, it was only a matter of time before he achieved the desired results.
In scientific research, the greatest fear wasn't failure it was starting in the wrong direction.
As long as one moved in the right direction, continuous experimentation and refinement would eventually lead to a breakthrough. But if one started in the wrong direction, no amount of effort would ever yield results.
So even though Elder Ye couldn't directly hand him the technology, providing a roadmap was already far more valuable than having Huo Yuhao fumble around in the dark.
Huo Yuhao Clenches His Fist.
"Then my goal is clear."
"I will develop soul tools!"
At that moment, his spirit was reignited, as if he had returned to his youthful days of fearlessness.
He was once again the unstoppable Huo Yuhao!
But Elder Ye sighed and said, "Unfortunately, you're still too weak."
"If you had God King level power, combined with my authorization, you could at least wield part of Feihong Sword's power. Then, you wouldn't need to waste time researching soul tools you could just crush your enemies with sheer force."
"But wasn't this sword destroyed?" Huo Yuhao looked at the Feihong Sword, which was now only a hilt, unable to see any remaining power in it.
"Destroyed? A Creation God level artifact is not so easily annihilated," Elder Ye shook his head. "If you can find the other fragments, I can reforge it. Once fully restored, this divine weapon would allow even a mere mortal to stand against the gods."
"However, with the sword currently so heavily damaged, its power has been drastically weakened. Right now, only a God King could even begin to wield its strength."
Huo Yuhao Grits His Teeth.
"Such a shame…" he muttered, his eyes filled with frustration.
If he had the power to take revenge now, he would have long since made his move.
Did he really want to spend years researching soul tools?
If he could gain absolute strength overnight, he would immediately go and smash Tang San's head in with his fists!
Who needs soul tools when you can just punch your enemies into oblivion?!
