Chi Wang replied with some anxiety, "You had best not make a move against her. She is the Auspicious Beast of the Star Dou Great Forest. If there are conditions, we can negotiate."
"You aren't qualified to negotiate with me. Tell Di Tian to come; we will meet in the north of the Star Dou Great Forest."
Huo Yuhao's calm voice rang out, nearly startling Yan Shaozhe. He couldn't help but admire Huo Yuhao's audacity; he dared to face even Di Tian directly.
Seeing this, Chi Wang did not linger. "Fine, but I advise you: you had best not hurt her, or the Star Dou Great Forest will absolutely take revenge for her."
Watching Chi Wang's departing figure, Huo Yuhao immediately cast Simulation on Yan Shaozhe, concealing their forms.
"What are you standing there for? Run!" Huo Yuhao's voice came through.
However, after Yan Shaozhe shared Huo Yuhao's Spirit Detection, his expression became quite colorful.
Because at this moment, Huo Yuhao had already run over 3,000 meters away, nearly reaching the maximum range of his Spirit Detection.
Yan Shaozhe could no longer stand still; he hurriedly hoisted the Auspicious Beast and chased after Huo Yuhao.
"Yuhao, this is the legendary Auspicious Beast. We've hit the jackpot this time, but you really have guts to provoke Di Tian."
Yan Shaozhe sighed at Huo Yuhao's "newborn calf not fearing the tiger" attitude.
"Do you think I wanted to meet Di Tian? If you hadn't failed to take down Chi Wang instantly, Dean Yan, I would have had you finish him off and run away with the beast long ago."
As he spoke, Huo Yuhao activated Fate Awakening, hurriedly shielding the Auspicious Beast's power of fate.
The two brought the Auspicious Beast to the outer perimeter of the Star Dou Great Forest, not far from Shrek Academy now.
"Dean Yan, I need to perform an attribute connection with her. She carries quite a bit of the power of fate; I'm going to siphon some off to use."
Hearing this, Yan Shaozhe tossed the still-unconscious Auspicious Beast to Huo Yuhao and began inquiring about the location of their extraction team.
Huo Yuhao pressed his three eyes against the three eyes of the Emperor Auspicious Beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni, and began to absorb the beast's power of fate.
As the power of fate was preparing to evolve his Eye of Life, it was entirely absorbed by Huo Yuhao's Fate Awakening, once again pushing the evolutionary progress of his Body Martial Soul.
When Huo Yuhao exerted his full power into his Spirit Eye martial soul, his eyes began to turn gold. Even without entering his secondary awakening state, he had prepared a portion of the power of fate.
Huo Yuhao hadn't expected the Auspicious Beast to possess so much power of fate—it was nearly half of his own ten-thousand-year fortune.
If he weren't afraid of Di Tian coming to cause him trouble, he would have absorbed nine-tenths of it.
After all, the backlash of the Auspicious Beast's fate had already arrived. Did they really think there was no price to pay for giving a bunch of soul beasts double-speed cultivation every day?
The Auspicious Beast's power of fate could actually have been used to defend against Tang San, just like Huo Yuhao's.
If they hadn't been running the "accelerator" for Di Tian and the others for so long, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni would have been like a hedgehog covered in thorns, and Tang San wouldn't have wanted to touch her.
It was different now. Once the beast's own backlash appeared, the thorns were no longer sharp. If he could get her to offer a voluntary sacrifice, there would be no fate backlash left at all.
In the end, Huo Yuhao only absorbed six-tenths, leaving behind just enough power of fate so as not to affect the efficiency of the accelerator.
Following this, their memories began to share, but with his half-step Divine Origin Realm, Huo Yuhao only shared edited memories.
Information regarding his transmigration, the Abyss, and Battle Armor was naturally hidden entirely.
Looking at the nutrient-less memories of the Auspicious Beast, Huo Yuhao chatted with the three entities in his Spirit Sea.
"How is it that she doesn't even know where the treasures of the core area are? Has she only known how to eat for all these years?"
"Think positively, Yuhao. You also don't know where the resources of the Sea God Pavilion are kept. In a sense, you two are quite similar."
"Tian Meng, no one will mistake you for a mute if you don't speak. If you're bored, go sleep in a corner."
Only Electrolux wore a thoughtful expression.
"Yuhao, by analyzing various soul beasts and their forms through this beast's memories, the research and development of Soul Spirits will take a further step forward."
"Then many thanks, Elder Electrolux."
"Look at how much help she gave Huo Yuhao, then look at you, Tian Meng. A total waste."
"Bing Bing, doesn't that just show my good judgment? I chose the simplest path to godhood directly."
Just then, a deep voice came from the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest, interrupting their chatter.
"Release the Auspicious Beast and state your conditions."
Huo Yuhao simulated a version of himself standing beside the masked man to avoid the beast discovering that the masked man was not a Limit Douluo.
Upon sensing the presence of Mu En and Xuan Zi, Huo Yuhao's half-step Divine Origin Realm aura spread out once more, clashing briefly with Di Tian's spiritual power.
The expression on the face of the man Di Tian had transformed into grew a bit more solemn. In this mere collision of spiritual power, he had actually fallen into a disadvantage.
Just as Di Tian wanted to probe further, the figures of Mu En and Xuan Zi appeared, dispelling his intention to strike.
"Di Tian, long time no see. How have you been? Why have you started attacking the younger generation?" Mu En spoke indifferently.
"Enough. I simply heard that you Shrek people had gained a Limit Douluo and wanted to test it out. Speak, what are your conditions?"
Di Tian glanced at the Three-Eyed Golden Ni, who had been awakened by the earlier aura. After confirming she was unharmed, he began negotiations.
"I heard there are some green stones containing life force inside the Life Lake. Give us eight or ten of them, and the Auspicious Beast will be returned to you."
Huo Yuhao spoke, borrowing the identity of the masked man.
"Don't even think about it. Those are the treasures of the Star Dou Great Forest. Three at most. Otherwise, prepare your Shrek Academy to face a beast tide."
Seeing that his goal was achieved, Huo Yuhao nodded at Mu En. After all, he couldn't push too hard; they really didn't dare to kill the Auspicious Beast, and a beast tide was nothing to trifle with.
"Fine, let's make the exchange." Mu En took the Auspicious Beast from Yan Shaozhe's hands and swapped her for the three green crystals from Di Tian.
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni, having been traded over, stared fixedly at Huo Yuhao.
Although she was very interested in Huo Yuhao's memories, she was still very angry, understanding that the person before her had performed an attribute connection with her.
After the exchange, both sides returned to their own territories. Huo Yuhao couldn't wait to return to his residence on Sea God Island.
These three pieces of Life Gold were each larger than his carving knife. One of them had some damage on it, which Huo Yuhao estimated was the piece bitten by the Golden Hawksbill Turtle.
Using his spiritual power to activate a shield, Huo Yuhao, with the help of Electrolux, absorbed the three pieces of Life Gold once more, further enhancing his physical and mental strength.
With this, Huo Yuhao was confident he could absorb a hundred-thousand-year soul ring for his fifth soul ring.
The three pieces of Life Gold fused with his original Blade of Life Protection, and the carving knife gradually transformed into the shape of a long blade.
At the same time, under the impetus of the Life Gold, his Eye of Life advanced once more. Its dense life force meant that Huo Yuhao would never have to worry about being injured again in the future.
