Chapter 39: Bewitching
Although Huo Yuhao was somewhat disappointed to learn that he could not easily use Life's Watch to protect living beings in the future, he was somewhat relieved to know that he had already comprehended a law.
The responsibility that had weighed on him for a long time instantly lightened considerably. Now, Huo Yuhao at least no longer faced the bottleneck from level 99 to level 100.
His promise to Tianmeng Iceworm and the Two Ice and Snow Emperors was largely fulfilled, and he no longer needed to consider how to handle the God Position of the God of Emotion.
On the Douluo Continent, a Spirit Master can only possess one God Position, which means that a person can only comprehend one law. The God Position of the God of Emotion was no longer relevant to him.
However, divine abyss truly astonished Huo Yuhao. What was the origin of this divine artifact that had accompanied him through his transmigration, and how could it help him condense a law?
Additionally, looking at the fragments of the God Position left by the Death God phantom in his hand, Huo Yuhao had some new ideas. He remembered that this item seemed to be the core of the future Spirit Ascension Platform.
In the God Realm, Tang San's plans were once again disrupted. Huo Yuhao's act of comprehending a God Position on his own once again astonished him.
He had originally intended to have Rong Nianbing pass on the God Position of the God of Emotion to Huo Yuhao.
On one hand, this would make Rong Nianbing, who was eager to leave the God Realm, owe him a favor, and on the other hand, it would make Huo Yuhao grateful to him.
Now, the plan had failed again. He couldn't possibly let Huo Yuhao inherit an alternative dual God Position like him, and besides, there were no Spirit Beasts to sacrifice to him.
Thinking of this, Tang San suddenly looked at the Auspicious Beast in the Star Dou Great Forest, and a new plan arose in his mind.
Little did he know that this very plan would lead to the rebirth of the Soul Beast Clan in the future, and Tang God King would consequently completely lose control over the Douluo Continent.
On Huo Yuhao's way back to the camp, Dai Hao awkwardly entered the tent where Xuan Zi and Yan Shaozhe were temporarily resting.
"Apologies for disturbing your rest, seniors. May I inquire about the situation in the Mingdou Mountain Range? If I didn't sense incorrectly, the fluctuations of that level just now should indicate a divine battle, right?"
Xuan Zi and Yan Shaozhe had only just recovered from their shock. As soon as they returned to the Star Luo camp, Xuan Zi sobered up and realized something was amiss.
However, just as Xuan Zi woke up Yan Shaozhe, he saw two gigantic figures emanating divine fluctuations battling in the distance.
As a level 98 Super Douluo, he had a much deeper understanding of the divine level than Dai Hao and knew that it was a battle he absolutely could not participate in.
However, knowing the identity of the white figure, he had been very worried about Huo Yuhao's safety.
"You truly didn't become a Duke for nothing; you have some insight to discern that the battle just now was on a divine level."
Seeing the white phantom win, Xuan Zi's mood relaxed considerably, and he reverted to his usual carefree demeanor. After taking a bite of a chicken leg, he casually replied.
"After all, my ancestors in my family also reached that realm, and there are some records in the books. However, seeing that Pavilion Master Huo has not returned, I wonder if it has some connection to him."
Seeing Dai Hao's somewhat probing response, Yan Shaozhe, who knew Xuan Zi was not good at such things, immediately took over the conversation.
"Duke, your deduction is quite good, but this kind of high-level conflict is not something to speak lightly of. I have already contacted Old Mu, and everything will be relayed to the Star Luo Imperial Family after Old Mu ascertains the situation."
Hearing Yan Shaozhe elevate the news to the level of direct communication with the Imperial Family, Dai Hao found it inconvenient to ask further questions.
He silently raised Huo Yuhao's importance by another level in his mind and temporarily returned to his own tent.
However, in an unnoticed corner, a black phantom no larger than a squirrel flashed past.
"Damn it, during the battle just now, some law fragments must have fallen into that kid's hands. If I can't get those fragments back, the main body's God Position will take at least five thousand years to repair."
This black phantom was precisely an extremely tiny fragment of the Death God's divine sense that had temporarily split off after detecting divine sense fluctuations before Huo Yuhao went to the cave.
Huo Yuhao had been hiding his divine sense all along, and by the time the Death God's clone discovered him, it was too late to make more preparations.
Before Huo Yuhao returned to the camp, this tiny divine sense investigated the surrounding camp and finally chose Dai Yueheng, who was resting in his tent.
"Since you hate that kid so much, the next Death God Messenger will be you. If my divine sense wasn't so severely damaged, it wouldn't be your turn; your Spirit doesn't even have a hint of death attribute."
With no other choice, the Death God phantom swiftly entered Dai Yueheng's body.
This time, it was no longer a simple possession like that of the Death God Messenger but a true integration deep into Dai Yueheng's Spirit Sea.
This fragment of divine sense was too tiny; if it didn't possess someone, it would likely dissipate. The Death God phantom, knowing that Huo Yuhao possessed divine sense, could only choose this method of fusion that would not be discovered.
"Dai Yueheng, Huo Yuhao destroyed everything you had, took away your position as White Tiger Duke, killed your younger brother, and caused your mother to be on the verge of death. Do you want revenge?"
Having learned that the boy who destroyed his clone's divine sense was named Huo Yuhao, the Death God's clone immediately called out to Dai Yueheng in his Spirit Sea.
This voice suddenly appeared in Dai Yueheng's mind, and then his consciousness entered his Spirit Sea.
Listening to the Death God phantom's incitement and thinking of everything he had lost, Dai Yueheng instantly became invigorated. His heart began to beat violently.
However, the moment he saw the Death God phantom, his initial surge of excitement instantly calmed down, and the fluctuations in his Spirit Sea gradually subsided.
Dai Yueheng, who had just witnessed Huo Yuhao fighting him, naturally knew what kind of being he was. He was the culprit who had killed tens of thousands of Star Luo citizens.
Dai Yueheng's heart immediately fell into a great internal struggle.
On one side was successful revenge and obtaining the position of White Tiger Duke; on the other side were his father, whom he had admired since childhood, and the education he had received over the years.
Seeing Dai Yueheng hesitate, the Death God phantom, who had seen his memories, incited him again:
"What are you still hesitating for? Your father has already given up on you. Do you want to die someday at the hands of some powerful individual who wants to curry favor with Huo Yuhao?"
"Think about how much you've sacrificed for the Duke's position over the years. You cultivate diligently every day, yet you're not as highly valued by the family as Dai Huabin's Spirit fusion skill."
"You finally reached level 60, but because of that good-for-nothing Dai Huabin, your future was ruined, and the family even regarded you as a jinx to curry favor with Huo Yuhao."
"What do you lack compared to Dai Luoli? He's just a concubine's son, yet now he wants to snatch your position. Are you truly content with such a life?"
Looking at the still silent Dai Yueheng, the Death God's clone decided to add fuel to the fire.
"As long as you start to use my power, with just the corpses of some enemies who have offended you, I can help you increase the age of your first few spirit rings."
"You will gain power that surpasses everyone else and reclaim everything that was yours."
"You can even become a god, just like your ancestor, if you wish."
