"Hehe, big bug, you've lived for a million years for nothing if you can't even see through little Yuhao's true nature."

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm snapped at the Gray Sphere:

"Hey, gray ball."

"What do you mean by that?"

"You snatched someone from me, and I haven't even settled that score with you yet. Don't think that just because your soul rank is high, I can't do anything to you!"

"I've got plenty of tricks up my sleeve."

Huo Yuhao's eyes widened, and he hurriedly covered Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's mouth.

This guy might not be strong, but his ability to court death was off the charts.

He really dared to provoke anyone.

An aged voice came from within the Gray Sphere.

"Heh, big bug, back in my younger days, you would have been nothing more than nourishment before this Old Man."

The Gray Sphere faintly released an utterly terrifying aura aimed at Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.

Sweat began to stream down Tian Meng's face. He was clearly drenched in cold sweat, under immense pressure.

"T-Talk big all you want, aren't you just a wisp of a remnant soul now? Don't you need Yuhao to keep existing?"

"You don't even dare reveal your own name!"

After hearing Tian Meng's words, the Gray Sphere instead withdrew the terrifying pressure bearing down on him.

"This Old Man does not belong to this world. After I died, my soul was so powerful that it tore through space, preserving a wisp of divine consciousness, which was drawn here by the big bug's Spiritual Power."

"My memories are severely fragmented. If they were to recover naturally, who knows how long it would take."

"Fortunately, after entering this child's body, that peculiar Spiritual Power awakened some of my memories."

"With sun and moon in hand, stars within reach, there has never been another like me beneath the heavens."

"This Old Man was once the Holy Necromancer, the Undead Calamity, Electrolux!"

Upon hearing such a long title, Tian Meng quietly shielded Huo Yuhao behind him.

Seeing this, Electrolux chuckled softly before saying:

"Big bug, do you know why I said little Yuhao was born a higher existence?"

Tian Meng perked up at once. Whenever it concerned Huo Yuhao, he was especially interested.

"Why?"

The Gray Sphere glanced at Huo Yuhao. After confirming that he did not mind it revealing some information, it said:

"Because of Rules!"

"The difference between mortals and gods lies in Rules!"

"No matter how hard mortals strive throughout their lives, they cannot understand the form in which Rules exist. That is because their level of life is too low, and they cannot imagine the ultimate truth of this world."

"So-called gods are those who have reached the pinnacle in a certain aspect, gained the favor of Rules, and obtained permission to wield them."

"They can exercise the power of Rules and, to a certain extent, even alter them."

"Yet no life-form can fully control any Rule."

"They can only use Rules and Faith to condense a throne, then exercise the authority of Rules through that throne."

"But little Yuhao's situation is something I have never heard of!"

"Despite being so weak, he has no fewer than three Rules intertwined within his body, connected to one another as a single whole!"

"The three Rules do not conflict in the slightest, as though they had always been one. Merely gazing upon them lets me feel that ultimate force pressing down upon my divine consciousness."

"Furthermore, the three Rules within Yuhao seem to have been directly branded with Soul Imprints."

"The three Rules have not resisted either, as though they acknowledge this relationship."

"As long as he lives, no one can gain the recognition of these three Rules."

"Hehe, interesting. Others first grow powerful, then seek to comprehend Rules."

"But he is the opposite. He possesses Rules first, then grows powerful."

"So, the path little Yuhao should take is not to comprehend Rules, but to gradually gain control over them."

"To fully control Rules!"

"As for that realm, this Old Man does not know what it should be called. After all, no one has ever been able to conquer Rules. Little Yuhao is the first person I have ever seen!"

"Yuhao is now half god, half man. He possesses Rules, but has yet to fully control them."

"Hiss... perhaps he could be called a God-man?"

After hearing Electrolux's explanation, Huo Yuhao kept nodding. But when he heard what he was being called at the end, he could not hold it together anymore.

The family of whoever came up with the name God-man had probably hired Hakigao.

That said, he himself did not know what he would become after mastering all three Rules.

At first, he had thought he would be like the deities in the God Realm.

But after listening to Electrolux, he realized that his path had nothing to do with the God Realm's system.

Those people in the God Realm were the type to solve everything with brute force, using God Positions and Divine Power to interfere with Rules.

He, on the other hand, would fully control Rules and become the Lord of Rules.

After hearing Electrolux's words, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm fell into a complete daze.

His brain CPU clearly could not process that kind of information.

He could only stare blankly at Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao shrugged and said to Tian Meng and Electrolux, "Just as Elder Yi said, I do indeed possess three Rules."

"[Comprehension], [Fantasy], and [Dream] were branded with Soul Imprints from the moment I was born."

"I count as the Lord of Spirits, but I have yet to grasp Authority."

Electrolux could not help trembling as he said, "I never expected that after this Old Man's death, I would have the chance to witness a realm I never even dared imagine."

"To wield the Universal Truth with a living body!"

"Yuhao, would you allow this Old Man to remain in your body? I wish to watch you reach that realm."

"As payment, once I recover some of my memories, I can teach you Necromancy. It is the field in which I attained the greatest achievements in my life!"

Of course Huo Yuhao would not refuse. One of his main reasons for coming here was Electrolux.

"Of course, Elder Yi. I'll be relying on your guidance from now on."

Then Huo Yuhao and Electrolux turned to look at Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.

Tian Meng: "Aba, aba."

Electrolux could not quite restrain himself when he saw this stupid bug.

Gray Airflow struck Tian Meng's forehead, restoring his clarity.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm came back to his senses and finally realized that he had opened a blind box and gotten the hidden edition.

He wanted to hug Huo Yuhao, but Huo Yuhao sidestepped him.

Tian Meng refused to give up. He threw himself to the ground, hugged Huo Yuhao's thigh, and said through tears:

"I knew it. I knew heaven must favor me."

"Yuhao, don't worry! I'll definitely help you reach the realm that gray ball spoke of!"

Huo Yuhao pressed one hand against Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's head, stopping him from climbing farther up his leg.

"Brother Sky Dream, if you keep this up, Elder Yi and I will throw you out of the Sea of Consciousness!"

Tian Meng hurriedly got to his feet. "My mistake, my mistake. I won't dare do it again."

"By the way, Yuhao, what are your plans next? Like, where are we going?"

After pondering for a moment, Huo Yuhao said to Tian Meng, "First, we'll find a city near the Star Dou Great Forest and settle down. I should be able to break through to level twenty in about a month."

"Then, we'll go to a place in the Star Dou Great Forest and find a hundred-thousand-year Golden Tortoise for my Spiritual Eye's second Soul Ring."

"After all, I already made an agreement with it."

"Then I'll follow you to the Far North to find the Ice Empress."

Tian Meng was immediately shocked. "That fast? Ten levels in one month, will that really be okay?"

"And Yuhao, you actually know the Golden Tortoise?"

"The Golden Tortoise is a Destiny Soul Beast. If it becomes a Soul Ring, the benefits will be immense!"

Huo Yuhao looked at Tian Meng confidently. "Brother Sky Dream, have you ever heard of the Nine Dragon Power?"

"As long as the Mysterious Turtle Divine Pill and Soul Ascension Pill go on the offensive, everything will work out!"

"A mere ten levels of Soul Power? One month is more than enough!"

After ending the exchange in the Sea of Consciousness, Huo Yuhao returned to reality.

When the Shadow Cat saw that Huo Yuhao had awakened, it leaped directly onto his shoulder and licked his cheek.

Seeing the many Soul Beast corpses lying around them, Huo Yuhao knew it had put in considerable effort guarding him.

Huo Yuhao gently rubbed its head. "Sir Hao Mao, follow me from now on. If I have meat to eat, you'll have soup to drink!"

"Meow!"

The man and cat began walking toward the city. At that moment, the all-encompassing voice of the Plane Consciousness suddenly echoed beside his ears:

"Good child, after reaching level twenty, go beyond the Dream Doorway."

"I will be waiting for you in the sea."

Thank you all for the monthly votes and rewards. This little mouse can only OzR.
