Huo Yuhao: Am I a Child of Luck?

"Truly Child of Luck!"

It was an old voice, but the tone and manner of the voice clearly did not Mu En!

There are other people here?!

Huo Yuhao suddenly opened his eyes!

Those Spirit Eyes suddenly lit up in the darkness, shimmering with golden light like two bright lamps.

His body tensed instantly, and his Divine Power instinctively spread out, surging in all directions like a tide.

Despite the limitations on his Divine Power here, he still used all his strength to try to pinpoint the source of the sound.

However, his Divine Power was Imprisonment within this small ten-square-meter room and could not penetrate out at all.

He was surrounded by deathly silence; apart from himself, he could not sense any sign of Life God.

At that moment, the aged voice rang out again. "Don't panic, I mean no harm!"

The voice was gentle and calm, as if it had the power to soothe the soul.

Huo Yuhao lowered his guard, his tense muscles slowly relaxed, and his scattered Divine Power gradually returned.

He also asked using his Divine Power, "Who are you?"

"To be precise, I am not a human being."

"You are inside me right now!"

Huo Yuhao was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, and in a flash of surprise, a hint of astonishment crossed his eyes.

He raised his head and looked around at the golden walls, the flowing patterns, and the intensely rich Life God force.

His voice held a hint of disbelief. "You are... the Golden Tree?!"

"Hehe!" The aged voice chuckled, "That's right, I am this Golden Tree!"

Even after receiving a definite answer, Huo Yuhao was still shocked.

He had never heard of the Golden Tree having its own consciousness!

It was never mentioned in the records of the Shrek Academy that have been passed down for thousands of years, nor was it written in any ancient book.

Seemingly seeing through Huo Yuhao's thoughts, the Golden Tree continued, "You're the first person to know that I developed consciousness."

Huo Yuhao asked in surprise, his voice rising slightly, "You don't even know about the past Sea God Pavilion?"

In his mind, the Golden Tree and Shrek Academy were one and the same.

Standing atop the highest point of Sea God Island, witnessing the rise and fall of the academy, how could he be the first to know of such an important entity if it had developed consciousness?

The room was quiet for a moment, and then the Golden Tree's voice came again.

However, he did not answer the question, but instead asked, "Would you dare to come with me somewhere?"

Huo Yuhao hesitated for a moment, his eyes flickering slightly as he rapidly calculated in his mind.

Where to go?

Why should we take him?

What exactly is their purpose?

He only nodded when he heard his teacher Electrolux's words, "Go without worry," echoing in his mind.

If the teachers say it's okay, then there's no danger.

The Golden Tree then said, "Do not resist my power!"

Huo Yuhao felt himself enveloped by a warm power, a power that was gentle yet profound, like soaking in a hot spring.

Immediately, his consciousness was gently drawn out by an invisible force.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in an unfamiliar space.

The surrounding area was bathed in a dark gold hue, with a rich, almost tangible Life God flowing around it.

Standing before him was an elderly man dressed in a pale gold robe.

His face was kind, with a sense of profound experience, and his hair and beard were all white, with his hair reaching all the way to his heels.

Huo Yuhao knew that the old man in front of him must be the "Golden Tree" who had sent him the telepathic message earlier!

The old man smiled and said to Huo Yuhao, "Child of Luck, I am the Spirit of the Golden Tree. You can also call me Elder Jin."

"Elder Jin!" Huo Yuhao's eyes were full of doubt. After thinking for a moment, he finally asked, "Why do you call me the Child of Luck?"

Elder Jin looked at Huo Yuhao with loving eyes, as if he were looking at a child he had watched grow up.

He slowly spoke, "Because you are the chosen one of Douluo Planet, the one favored by the continent's destiny, the one who bears fifty percent of the destiny accumulated by the Douluo Continent over ten thousand years!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's mouth dropped open, his eyes filled with shock.

That young face was now filled with disbelief.

His ability to travel between two worlds is indeed an extraordinary stroke of luck.

He knew even more that, according to his original destiny, he would eventually become a god.

Such an opportunity truly deserves the description of "the mainland being blessed by destiny"!

But hearing Elder Jin say it so confidently, he couldn't help but feel a complex mix of emotions that he couldn't quite explain.

The phrase "Child of Luck" carries immense weight.

At this moment, he felt excited, fortunate, proud, and also somewhat dazed.

But after a moment, Huo Yuhao calmed down.

On that young face, all emotions receded like the tide, leaving only a calm expression.

In his heart, only a heavy pressure remained, along with even more doubts.

After realizing his extraordinary abilities, Huo Yuhao asked again, "Then why did you call me here?"

Elder Jin glanced at Huo Yuhao, then looked away and walked to the right.

"Weren't you curious before about why the successive Sea God Pavilion didn't know of my existence?"

Huo Yuhao followed behind him, listening to his words.

Then he saw Elder Jin stop in his tracks, raise his withered finger, and point to the sky.

Look there.

Huo Yuhao looked in the direction Elder Jin was pointing.

Above this golden space, a blue-gold sphere of light hung.

The sphere of light was small, like a sun in this dark golden world.

A golden light flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes. Even though his Divine Power was suppressed here, his Spirit Eyes could still see through many things.

The blue-gold orb seemed somewhat out of place in this space, clearly not a product of this place.

The golden Life God force flowing through this space seems to be constantly being absorbed by that blue-gold sphere of light.

Wrong!

Huo Yuhao frowned slightly.

Using the word "absorption" to describe it might not be accurate.

Absorption is passive and natural.

What we are witnessing is clearly a case of forced plunder.

That blue-gold sphere of light is now constantly devouring and plundering the Life God in this space!

It's like a bottomless pit, greedily and insatiably taking.

Huo Yuhao withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the old man beside him.

His voice was low and solemn. "Elder Jin, what is that?!"

A hint of seriousness flashed across Elder Jin's face at that moment.

That kind face now held a hint of coldness and helplessness.

He gazed at the blue-gold orb in the sky, his expression complex, and slowly said, "It seems you've sensed it too; she's plundering my Life God."

Huo Yuhao's heart skipped a beat.

He looked up again at the blue-gold "sun" in the sky and asked, "'What exactly is it'?"
