Tang San's World-Shocking Wisdom 2.0
Question: What was needed to successfully create a Soul Tool?
Answer: Skilled craftsmanship, sufficient knowledge, and enough Soul Power.
The first two went without saying, while Huo Yuhao met the latter requirement thanks to the Soul Power Storage Core.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, a lone yellow soul ring appeared, followed by a flicker of light.
Huo Yuhao instantly entered a focused state. Brilliant golden light flowed through his azure eyes as threads of perfectly controlled Soul Power and Spiritual Power intertwined, extending from the carving knife in his hand onto the metal.
The engraving began!
Chlorophyll Alloy, Grade 4 Metal.
This special metal was obtained through secondary forging and synthesis.
Through a special process, Chlorophyll Alloy discarded the trace amounts of life energy originally present in the metal and instead devoted all its properties to "toughness."
This made Soul Tools crafted from Chlorophyll Alloy sturdy and durable, but likewise, engraving it was one or two levels more difficult than engraving ordinary metals of the same grade.
Yet the carving knife in Huo Yuhao's hand did not pause in the slightest. His control over power far beyond his cultivation level had not reached its limit even now, and he remained completely at ease.
The people beside him watched without blinking.
Among them, Xiao Hongchen was watching the most intently.
In truth, from the moment Huo Yuhao's carving knife made its first stroke, he knew he had lost yet again. But he was only discouraged and doubtful for an instant before he began observing and learning.
Rather than spending time feeling discouraged, he might as well spend more time learning, then surpass him!
Xiao Hongchen was instantly filled with fighting spirit as he concentrated on observing Huo Yuhao's movements.
The three Rank 8 Soul Guide Masters beside him were slightly shocked. A One-Ring Soul Master was now creating a Grade 4 Soul Tool with the aid of the Soul Power Storage Core! And judging by the situation, the chances of success were quite high!
The three of them were secretly alarmed, feeling ever more that cracking the Soul Power Storage Core was an urgent matter.
The most relaxed one was perhaps Meng Hongchen.
The girl simply rested her cheek in her palm and stared unblinkingly at Huo Yuhao as he engraved with total concentration. Only one thought remained in her mind.
—Yuhao looks so handsome when he makes Soul Tools too!
Just as Huo Yuhao was gradually carrying out his plan, a nearly imperceptible crack suddenly appeared in the barrier outside the Douluo World, a barrier condensed from ten thousand years of Power of Destiny accumulated by the World Will of the Douluo World.
A streak of blue light shot toward the Douluo World at tremendous speed, attempting to squeeze in through the barrier.
But the World Will reacted with astonishing speed. In an instant, it repaired the barrier with the Power of Destiny, while simultaneously splitting off several strands of that power and turning them into light arrows that shot toward the blue streak.
The blue streak that had struggled its way through the barrier dimmed somewhat. Facing the World Will's counterattack of destiny, it paused briefly before directly splitting off a streak of light from its body and sending it racing toward the several Destiny Arrows.
Yet whether it had underestimated the power of the Destiny Arrows or overestimated its own strength, that streak of light barely blocked one Destiny Arrow before completely dispersing. The remaining Destiny Arrows, however, locked onto it with imposing force!
At the critical moment between life and death, the blue streak had no choice. In the next instant, dazzling blue radiance burst forth, and a phantom gradually peeled away from the blue streak before slowly becoming solid.
It was a trident.
Its entire body was black. The side blades on both sides were relatively slender, while the central main blade was two chi long and half a chi wide, exceptionally broad, making it seem more like a sword.
The black trident shaft now emitted a deep blue glow, and a power as vast and majestic as the sea spread out to encompass everything around it, attempting to destroy it all.
However, this seemingly incomparably powerful attack was merely a smokescreen used by the blue streak to escape.
Under the trident's cover, the blue streak, which had already become exceedingly dim after seemingly separating from the trident, did not hesitate in the slightest. Taking advantage of the trident's lingering power, it fled at once!
In mere moments, the blue streak vanished without a trace.
Meanwhile, after losing all control and enduring the attacks of six Destiny Arrows, the trident's glow dissipated and it immediately began falling downward.
The blue streak had vanished, the trident gradually dimmed, and the Destiny Arrows lost their target and slowly dispersed. Everything returned to calm.
Yet in the next moment, faint spatial ripples abruptly appeared, and the Silver-Haired Purple-Eyed Girl stepped out from them with a frown.
The girl swept her gaze across the surroundings and instantly spotted the trident falling continuously, its glow dim.
She extended her hand, and spatial ripples appeared once more. The falling trident landed in her hand.
Sensing the aura contained within it, the girl frowned slightly. She had felt this aura before—the aura of the person who had become a god ten thousand years ago.
And this thing... seemed to be that person's weapon?
If she remembered correctly, it was called the Sea God Trident?
The girl frowned slightly. Looking at the dim trident in her hand, she weighed it lightly and thought for a moment before coming to a decision.
—Take it to Huo Yuhao and let him have a look! Besides, I haven't seen him for ten hours already.
Having found a proper reason to go see him, the girl narrowed her eyes. A fleeting smile unconsciously appeared at the corners of her lips. Without further hesitation, she grasped the trident and stepped into the spatial ripples, disappearing from sight.
On the outskirts of Star Luo City, within the slums.
A boy dressed like a beggar, around seven or eight years old, who had been curled up asleep in an alley, suddenly opened his eyes.
He looked somewhat confused, unable to understand what had happened. But in the next instant, deep blue light flashed through his eyes. As a vast flood of memories poured in, the boy's original personality was instantly overwritten.
The confusion in his eyes gradually faded, leaving behind only coldness and hatred.
"Damn World Will!"
The boy—no, Tang San—viciously cursed.
Two years ago, the World Will of the Douluo World had suddenly erupted, transforming all the fortune it had accumulated over ten thousand years into a Destiny Barrier and completely cutting off his connection to the Douluo World.
To prevent any mishap in his ten-thousand-year grand plan, Tang San considered the matter briefly before thinking of a solution!
He would separate a strand of Divine Sense and send it down to the lower realm together with the Sea God Divinity and the Sea God Trident capable of initiating the God Examination!
Then, this strand of Divine Sense would choose the body of a fated person and allow that person to become the Sea God!
First, due to the presence of his Divine Sense, the chosen person would certainly be under his control. This person would be no different from his avatar puppet. Even if this person became the Sea God, it would merely mean that his Divine Sense had become a god. He could reclaim the Sea God Divinity at any time through his Divine Sense, with no drawbacks whatsoever.
Second, since the person chosen was ostensibly the one becoming a god, he would not be breaking the rule that gods could not interfere with the lower realm! That fellow Destruction would have no reason to stop him either! When the time came, a First-Rank Deity concealed by the Destiny Barrier would be enough to control the continent and advance his ten-thousand-year grand plan!
Finally, after temporarily separating the Sea God Divinity, he could have Xiao Wu cooperate with him and more quickly gain complete control over the Asura Godhood! He would truly solidify his position as God King!
It was killing three birds with one stone! Truly worthy of his world-shocking wisdom!
