Silver Tongue

"Your strength as a human may not be much to speak of, but you certainly have a lot of nerve."

The Silver Dragon King sized up Huo Yuhao and then snorted coldly. At the same time, an invisible pressure made Huo Yuhao's heart sink.

"Heh, you want to overthrow the Divine Realm? Do you know the difference in power between the Deity and you? Do you know how many Deity there are in the Divine Realm?"

"You're full of empty boasts and flattery. Is that why you were able to win Auspicious Beast that little auspicious beast?"

Despite feeling the immense, mountain-like pressure of divine might, Huo Yuhao remained calm and showed no fear as he continued speaking.

"The Divine Realm's suppression of the Soul Beast Clan is something that I'm sure His Excellency the Silver Dragon King is well aware of."

"However, is the existence of the Divine Realm really a good thing for Soul Master? In my opinion, it's not necessarily so!"

As Huo Yuhao spoke with conviction, the invisible pressure emanating from the Silver Dragon King gradually faded away.

At the same time, a human-like, rather interested expression appeared on her dragon head. "Go on."

Huo Yuhao was now 70% certain of his success, yet he continued to calmly state his views.

"Compared to Soul Beast, humans are undoubtedly at a disadvantage, whether in terms of lifespan or physical strength."

"This has led to the situation where even if humans follow the path planned by the gods in the Divine Realm and climb upwards step by step, it is still impossible."

"Ultimately, in the barren land of the Douluo Continent, how many Soul Master can achieve the Titled Douluo with limited resources?"

"Even after becoming Titled Douluo, how much shorter is the lifespan of Titled Douluo now compared to those of Title Holder Douluos from ten thousand years ago?"

"If, hundreds of 100,000-Year, human Soul Master could rely on the extended lifespan gained from breaking through the Title Level and accumulate Thought Power to ascend to the god level..."

"So now, apart from inheriting the God Position of their predecessors, no human Soul Master has been able to become a god on their own after tens of thousands of years."

At this point, Huo Yuhao sneered and said, "Isn't this because the methods of becoming a god have been firmly controlled by the Divine Realm?"

"That is why only when the Divine Realm has a need will it scatter one or two God Position."

"This can be considered as giving these beings who are struggling in the mortal world a little hope, so that they can continue to follow the path they have planned."

Huo Yuhao immediately shook his head, feigning deep sorrow, and said, "But this tiny hope is also a means of controlling human Soul Master."

"Because all Soul Master have the expectation of becoming gods because of the experiences of their predecessors."

"After reaching the pinnacle of their power, all the strong will rack their brains to try to find the Deity inheritance or to make offerings to the Deity in order to gain their mercy."

"After all, if our predecessors could become gods, why can't we replicate that possibility?"

"Even in the eyes of many exceptionally talented individuals, their predecessors are compared to themselves."

"Whether it's cultivation talent or combat strength, I have long surpassed them."

"If that's the case, why can't I be the next lucky one to become a god?"

"The mentality of taking chances and the concepts passed down from generation to generation influence every Soul Master, making their thinking rigid."

"However, as the strongest beings at the pinnacle of every era in the human world."

"Their existence should have been that of leaders guiding generations to innovate and make progress."

"But now, we are wasting our time, stagnating for a vague and uncertain possibility."

Then Huo Yuhao put on a disdainful look and said, "The strongest people I can see in the Douluo Continent right now."

"Over the past ten thousand years, there have been nothing more than some people who, despite possessing great strength and exceptional talent, have achieved great things."

"But in consuming and occupying a large amount of resources, they have become nothing more than laughable people who fawn over the Deity."

"Although the resources on the Sun Moon Continent were even scarcer, and most of its inhabitants had poor aptitude, even Super Douluo were difficult to reach."

"Not to mention the Limit Douluo who are qualified to inherit the God Position, but it is precisely because of this that they have taken a different path."

"They were able to develop something called Soul Tool based on Soul Power without the guidance of Deity, thus changing their status quo."

"Even if His Excellency the Silver Dragon King is detached from worldly affairs, he must have heard of this Soul Tool."

The Silver Dragon King narrowed her eyes slightly. Recently, she had been convinced that the connection between the Divine Realm and Douluo Star had run into problems.

Therefore, she did not fall into a deep sleep again, and the events that happened in the Star Dou Great Forest could not be kept from her.

She inherited the Dragon God's memories, though not in complete detail, but she could still see the potential of the object called Soul Tool.

This signifies that humanity will move away from a rigid, experience-based approach to cultivating power and instead embrace a society where immense strength is concentrated in one person.

The focus shifted to exploring and mastering the laws governing the world's operation, in order to develop a more systematic approach to cultivation.

Because the Dragon God had seen far too many things like this during the long history of the Dragon God Realm.

There are reasons why the Divine Dragon God Realm was so prosperous and had so many Deity, with each planet and plane being powerful.

However, since the Five Great God Kings of the Divine Realm came to power, the Divine Realm has shrunk considerably compared to the original Dragon God Realm.

Moreover, as God King, they did not have the ability to modify or control the God Realm Core.

The only thing that could be done was to allow the God Realm Core to operate, albeit with difficulty, according to its original logic.

In order to prevent the emergence of uncontrollable Deity, thereby disrupting the delicate balance of the God Realm Core.

Therefore, the Five Great God Kings also strictly controlled those Small World that were controlled by the God Realm Core.

Why were Soul Master in a period similar to the Middle Ages during the first 20,000 years of the Douluo Continent storyline?

Ten thousand years after losing contact with the Divine Realm, they directly used Soul Tool to reach a level close to interstellar civilization.

Or perhaps this is why Douluo Continent also has its own native Soul Tool system, but it was interrupted 10,000 years ago.

The reasons for this are, of course, self-evident.

Huo Yuhao continued, "Soul Tool are only the first step for the human world to truly give birth to its own civilization."

"Even without Soul Tool, human creativity can certainly create other similar things."

"I wonder if the Silver Dragon King agrees with what I have said?"

The Silver Dragon King nodded slightly. After all, the so-called Soul Tool was just a way to gain a deeper understanding of the source of one's own power and then control it.

"Soul Power itself is not a suitable vessel," Huo Yuhao continued. "Because the conflict between humans and Soul Beast is Origin caused by the existence of Soul Master."

"The improvement of Soul Power, the addition of Soul Ring, and the increase in strength all depend on sucking the blood of Soul Beast."

"It begins in the Divine Realm by guiding humans to continuously grow stronger through the path of Soul Master."

"In fact, the irreconcilable conflict between humans and Soul Beast was already destined long ago."

"Soul Master's strength can only be improved by absorbing the Soul Ring formed from the life force of Soul Beast."

"However, the time required for a Soul Beast to grow up far exceeds the lifespan of a generation or even several generations of Soul Master."

"In this way, one thing rises while the other falls, and vice versa. Soul Master are more like parasites that depend on the multi-ethnic composite race of Soul Beast."

"The stronger the Soul Master, the weaker the Soul Beast will be, thus creating a vicious cycle."

"The weaker the Soul Beast, the less able it is to support the growth of powerful Soul Master and advance the progress of human civilization."

"This also leads to a ridiculous situation: the stronger Soul Master is, the weaker Soul Master become."

Although it seemed like a joke, the Silver Dragon King's expression turned serious.

This was a question she had never considered. For 100,000-Year after escaping from the Divine Realm, she had been recovering from her injuries through slumber.

They rarely bothered to understand the relationship between Soul Beast, humans, and Soul Master, but after listening to Huo Yuhao's analysis, they were shocked to realize the problem.

Huo Yuhao, on the other hand, continued to predictively recount the possibilities that lay ahead.

"But once the progress of civilization is hindered, Soul Master and Soul Beast will be trapped together on this continent where resources are gradually becoming scarce."

"Then what will ultimately happen is the mutual decline of both ethnic groups due to resource scarcity."

"And as one side grows while the other grows, and the other grows while the other grows, they will eventually wither away together."

"Soul Beast with long lifespans will rise again and rule this land once more."

"However, as the Soul Beast gradually grow stronger, once the threat of humans is gone, the Soul Beast will fall apart once again."

"At that time, as long as the Divine Realm allows it, so-called humans will once again step onto the stage of history and repeat the previous cycle."

"As for whether the original humans or Soul Beast will be wiped out in the long river of history, I believe that this is not a problem for the Divine Realm."

"After all, Martial Soul are rooted deep in human blood and are formed from different Soul Beast. I believe they are by no means something that existed with humans from the beginning."

"Moreover, even visitors from other worlds are forcibly incorporated into this strange cycle of Soul Master and Soul Beast after arriving here."

"Although what I've said is all based on my own understanding and speculation," Huo Yuhao said with certainty.

"But now, this is the bloody reality before us!"

"So that's what I wanted to say."

"Rather than being kept in the captivity of the Divine Realm, humans and Soul Beast would waste their future in this hopeless cycle of reincarnation, becoming nourishment for the Divine Realm."

"It would be better to join hands and try to overthrow the Divine Realm. In any case, it would benefit both races on a larger scale."

"To put it simply, it poses no harm to either you or me; it's merely a necessary act of resistance."

"After all, the existence of the Silver Dragon King is also viewed with hostility by the Divine Realm."

"And to say something self-satisfactory," Huo Yuhao paused before continuing, "I can call myself the Son of Fortune, and I believe there's nothing wrong with that."

"However, to the Divine Realm, my existence is more like a hound that can be harvested at any time."

"From the moment I was born, there have been Deity who have been eager to take me under their control."

"But for me, I have my own pride, and I would never stoop to being someone else's lackey."

Looking at Huo Yuhao, who remained neither humble nor arrogant even when facing him, the Silver Dragon King remained silent for a brief moment.

She could see it, and she believed it, that Huo Yuhao was indeed as he said, and truly disdained to become a lackey of the Deity.

Similarly, after listening to Huo Yuhao's explanation, she realized just how awkward the current situation was on Douluo Star, where she was.

As the overlord of Soul Beast, he has never shouldered this responsibility for even a single day.

Now, whether for their own sake or for the sake of the Soul Beast, the existence of the Divine Realm is an unavoidable problem.

As for the hatred between Soul Beast and humans, after Huo Yuhao's barrage of attacks, the Silver Dragon King naturally transferred it to the Divine Realm as well.

This is the ending Huo Yuhao needs, because regardless of whether what he said or guessed was true.

All he needed was to convince the Silver Dragon King that what he said was true, and to make the Silver Dragon King acknowledge that what he said was true.

This shifted the Silver Dragon King's focus from the conflict between Soul Beast and humans to the Deity of the Divine Realm.

After a long silence, the Silver Dragon King finally spoke, saying, "A very interesting point of view, but as you said..."

"If someone were a native of the Douluo Continent, they would never say such things."

"So, who are you?" The Silver Dragon King stared intently at Huo Yuhao, and the surrounding elements seemed to be stirring, as if they were about to tear Huo Yuhao to pieces at any moment.

Huo Yuhao simply smiled, showing no emotion whatsoever despite the murderous intent that the Silver Dragon King seemed to be displaying. "I am who I am, and I only want to be myself, nothing more."

A moment later, the Silver Dragon King lowered his head and looked Huo Yuhao straight in the eye, and the restless elements around him also calmed down.

"Alright, then I'd like to ask you, how exactly will this cooperation proceed?"

"After all, the combined strength of the Soul Beast and the humans is no match for the gods of the Divine Realm."

"Even if you include me, where does your confidence come from?"

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, "That's not quite right, because I have full confidence in both myself and in you, Lord Silver Dragon King."

The Silver Dragon King asked with some curiosity, "Oh? What do you mean?"

Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered slightly, and then he said, "Let's start with His Excellency the Silver Dragon King."

"As far as I know, although you are seriously injured, you are almost fully recovered, and I also know of several places that should be of great benefit to you."

The image of the Ice Dragon King materialized beside Huo Yuhao.

The Silver Dragon King also realized that this did not exist in Huo Yuhao's bloodline.

At this moment, the Martial Soul actually appeared beside him.

"Ice Dragon King, could it be..." A guess flashed through the Silver Dragon King's mind.

Huo Yuhao nodded. "That's right, the remnants of two God Kings, and another place related to the Dragon Clan."

"This is my sincerity. I wonder what His Excellency the Silver Dragon King's thoughts are on this cooperation?"
