Star Luo Dai Family (Four Thousand)
The people of the Star Luo Empire did not believe Gu Qinghan's words, thinking that the Huo Yuhao he mentioned was fabricated.
But this is Skysea City!
This is where Huo Yuhao's battle that made him famous took place several years ago.
So, in response to the Star Luo Empire people's doubts, Gu Qinghan took out Soul Guidance Screen and showed these ignorant guys a picture of the Heaven Sea Alliance Grand Competition from a few years ago.
After watching the video, Lin Yuhan and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.
This is... a fake video, right?
Four-Ring Soul Ancestor with four black Soul Ring?
How is that possible!
Lin Yuhan frowned and said, "No matter how talented he is, it's impossible for him to obtain Ten Thousand Year Soul Spirit with his First Soul Ring, right? How can his body and Divine Power withstand it?"
Gu Qinghan was taken aback at first, then chuckled and said, "You don't know about the Spirit Ascension Platform? It's a special facility of the Spirit Pagoda that can increase the age of Soul Spirit. As far as I know, Huo Yuhao reached the Spirit Abyss Realm around the Four Rings, which is why he increased his First Soul Spirit to Ten Thousand Years."
"Increasing the lifespan of Soul Spirit? The Spirit Pagoda has such a place?"
Those who had never experienced the Spirit Ascension Platform before naturally found it hard to believe.
In their Star Luo Empire, there is no such place; it is beyond their knowledge.
While they were secretly surprised, Gu Qinghan continued:
"A few months ago at the Spirit Ice Grand Ceremony, Huo Yuhao participated in Exhibition Match. At that time, he demonstrated the cultivation of Six Ring Soul Emperor, and Six Ring Soul Emperor with Hundred Thousand Year Soul Spirit at that. If you want to see the relevant records, I can find them."
Lin Yuhan: "..."
She didn't want to believe that such a Soul Master genius existed in the world, but Gu Qinghan's confident tone and the various messages on the Soul Tool Network silenced her and her companions.
The Douluo Federation wouldn't possibly try to fool them with a fake video, would they?
This is the Douluo Federation?
Whether they were veteran experts or young masters, they were all so invincible...
Even Chang Gongyan, an elder, frowned and was secretly shocked when he heard about Huo Yuhao's various intelligence reports.
Unlike their younger generations, the older generation had a certain understanding of the Federation.
After all, although the two continents are far apart, they have had various conflicts and frictions. In the process of testing each other, they naturally gained some understanding of the situation of the Douluo Federation.
However, it now seems that their understanding was somewhat one-sided, and they only had a superficial understanding of just how terrifying the Federation's strength truly was.
Has a Soul Master like Huo Yuhao ever appeared in the history of the Star Luo Federation?
Chang Gongyan frowned, a sense of unease rising in his heart—if a genius like Huo Yuhao was not an isolated case, but rather a microcosm of the new generation of Soul Masters in the Federation, then the future of the Star Luo Continent would likely face unprecedented challenges.
"He actually possesses such talent... no wonder the master values him so highly."
Beside Chang Gongyan was a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance. Upon hearing about Huo Yuhao's current achievements, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes in satisfaction.
Only such unparalleled geniuses are qualified to be their Holy Son.
Seeing him lost in thought, Chang Gongyan transmitted his voice in a low tone:
Ning Fengzhi, what are you thinking about?
Ning Fengzhi, like him, is Saint Craftsman- level Blacksmith, but he had never met him before coming to the Douluo Federation, and the other party was not known in the blacksmithing world of the Star Luo Continent. (This person appears in the original novel Douluo 3, as a pseudonym, like an Easter egg.)
Ning Fengzhi arrived suddenly before this visit to the Star Luo Empire. He knew nothing about this companion, not even whether the other party's name was real or fake. Naturally, he also didn't know the other party's purpose.
Ning Fengzhi glanced at Chang Gongyan and said, "I was just marveling at the strength of the Douluo Federation."
In such a short time, Huo Yuhao has made such a significant improvement. It seems that the saying circulating in the Holy Church is true—if Huo Yuhao is successfully brought back to the Holy Church, the Holy Church is likely to prosper!
In the room prepared for the guests from the Star Luo Empire, a young woman dressed in magnificent palace attire stood gracefully and elegantly. Lin Yuhan stood behind her, holding documents in her hands, and said solemnly:
"Miss Dai Yun'er, this is the information we've gathered recently; the Federation's strength is beyond our imagination."
"Let me see it."
Dai Yun'er raised an eyebrow, reached out and took the document from her hand, and began to study it carefully.
Lin Yuhan looked down at her, her eyes flickering slightly.
The Star Luo Dai Family is one of the major families in the Star Luo Federation. Ten Thousand Years Ago ago, their family held a pivotal position in the Star Luo Empire.
Unfortunately, their clan encountered an unknown enemy, and overnight, the powerful White Tiger Duke's Mansion was massacred. Several heirs of that generation of Duke White Tiger died as a result, and even the Duke White Tiger himself turned white-haired overnight, became mentally exhausted, and was unable to support the White Tiger Duke's Mansion.
Fortunately, the Duke White Tiger had a child born to a concubine— Dai Luoli.
In order to win over the Dai family and revitalize the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, the Xu Family of the Star Luo Imperial Family betrothed their little princess to Dai Luoli.
Later, the White Tiger lineage, the Xu Family, and many other people from the Star Luo Empire who refused to submit migrated to the Star Luo Continent. Now, the Dai family has gradually recovered its strength and is a major family in the Star Luo Empire. They can occasionally serve as the Speaker of the Star Luo Federation, and their status is not much different from that of the royal Xu Family.
Princess Dai Yun'er of the Dai family accompanied them to the Douluo Federation this time, and she is the highest-ranking person among this group of younger people.
As Dai Yun'er looked at the documents, her initially indifferent expression gradually became serious, and finally, a hint of shock appeared on her face.
"Fourteen years old, Six Ring Soul Emperor... Hundred Thousand Year Soul Spirit... is this Huo Yuhao truly such a monstrous talent?"
Her slender fingers unconsciously gripped the edge of the document, her knuckles turning slightly white.
Lin Yuhan a low voice, "According to the intelligence we have so far, that's true. Moreover, he seems to have participated in the latest Soul Tool research and development project of the Ming De Hall and Spirit Pagoda, and has also achieved considerable success in the field of soul tool technology."
Dai Yun'er took a deep breath, carefully examined the documents for a moment, and a complex look flashed in her eyes.
They are people who should never have existed in this world.
Just as she was about to put down the documents, she suddenly saw Huo Yuhao's Martial Soul description, and her expression changed slightly.
"His Martial Soul is the same as mine? Could he be a descendant of the Dai family?"
"Yes."
Lin Yuhan nodded and smiled:
"The people of the Douluo Federation are unaware that the White Tiger Martial Soul can Mutation into a special Spiritual Attribute Body Martial Soul. They assume Huo Yuhao only has a simple Body Martial Soul and are unaware of his relationship with the Dai family. However, with your Martial Soul as a reference, I have this conjecture."
When she first saw Huo Yuhao's information, she was only shocked and overlooked his Martial Soul, which was exactly the same as Dai Yun'er's Body Martial Soul!
Since Dai Yun'er's martial soul is a mutation of the White Tiger martial soul, Huo Yuhao's identity becomes quite clear.
He must be a descendant of the Dai family or Zhu Family families who did not leave Douluo Continent Ten Thousand Years Ago!
A glint of light flashed in Dai Yun'er's eyes. She slowly closed the file, a meaningful smile playing on her lips.
"Interesting... this is really interesting."
She stood up, walked to the window, looked at the bustling streets of Skysea City, and whispered:
"The strongest genius in the Douluo Continent actually possesses the bloodline of the Star Luo Empire. That's quite unexpected."
Many years ago, the royal family of the Star Luo Empire was the Dai family. Until the Sun Moon Continent and the Douluo Continent collided, the countries of the two continents went to war, and the Dai family suffered heavy casualties. It was then that the Xu Family emerged and took over the royal power from the Dai family. However, the Dai family did not withdraw from the stage of history. They have been assisting the Xu Family in governing the country ever since.
It is perfectly true that the Dai family represents Star Luo Empire, and that the Dai family's bloodline is Star Luo Empire's bloodline.
However, Dai Yun'er was not naive enough to think that bloodline alone could make Huo Yuhao feel a sense of belonging to the Star Luo Empire. She knew very well that a peerless genius like Huo Yuhao must have his own beliefs and stance.
She gently tapped on the windowsill, a thoughtful look flashing in her eyes.
"Lin Yuhan, go and investigate Huo Yuhao's background, especially his parents. He's a member of the Skysea Alliance; we should be able to get more information there."
Lin Yuhan nodded. "Yes, Miss. You want to see him?"
Dai Yun'er continued, "There's no harm in making contact. Anyway, the purpose of sending us juniors here is to use our age advantage to do things that our elders can't do. It's natural for us to handle the work of contacting our peers. Besides, he's the next Tower Master of the Spirit Pagoda, so if we want to win over the Spirit Pagoda, we can't bypass him."
At this point, a sly glint flashed in Dai Yun'er's eyes, revealing her mischievous nature to Lin Yuhan.
"It's a pity he was born in the Douluo Federation. If he were one of us from the Star Luo Empire region, he might even call me 'sister.'"
Lin Yuhan: "..."
Even if such a genius truly hails from the Star Luo Empire, you can't force her to call you "sister" if she doesn't want to, can you?
You might even have to try to please him.
Thinking this, Lin Yuhan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, because Dai Yun'er's words dispelled the worries that had been troubling her recently.
The strongest genius in the Douluo Federation right now is a descendant of the Star Luo Dai Family, which is a good thing from all angles. At least, it gives them a subtle psychological advantage when facing Huo Yuhao.
Is there anything else?
Seeing that Lin Yuhan hadn't left after reporting her findings, Dai Yun'er raised an eyebrow.
Lin Yuhan said, "Our teacher communicated with the Tianhai Governor and arranged an opportunity for us to enter the Spirit Ascension Platform..."
During their stay in Skysea City, every member of the Star Luo Empire delegation experienced an unprecedented spiritual shock.
After experiencing the wonders of the Spirit Ascension Platform under the arrangement of the Tianhai Governor, everyone fell into a long silence. The soul-guiding technology that projected consciousness into a virtual world while possessing a 100% realistic experience, and the device that could also increase the age of Soul Spirit, left these soul masters from the Star Luo Empire both amazed and terrified.
"The Spirit Pagoda must establish a branch in the Star Luo Empire." The head of the delegation stated unequivocally in a private meeting, "This technological gap is no longer just a matter of being behind in terms of Soul Tool."
After resting for several days in Skysea City, the real investigation journey officially began. According to the itinerary, they would conduct an in-depth visit to the Douluo Continent for three months to fully understand the true strength of this opponent.
Surprisingly, upon learning of their intention to conduct an inspection, the Tianhai Governor not only did not take any precautions, but also personally planned the optimal route for them.
From Eastsea City to Shrek City, and finally all the way to Mingdu, this route encompasses almost all the most essential development achievements of the Douluo Federation. Afterwards, they even chartered tickets for Soul Tool Airplane for everyone, thoughtfully sending them off from Skysea City.
"Since our friends in the Star Luo Empire are so interested in our development..."
The governor stood by the gangway, waving goodbye with a beaming smile, "Then please see for yourselves the true face of the Douluo Federation."
You Star Luo Empire want to know how strong our Douluo Federation is?
Okay, I'll grant your request!
Let's understand the gap between us, and then realize our own powerlessness!
Some gaps cannot be bridged by ambition alone!
Above the Heaven Dou City Forging Association, dark clouds gathered, lightning flashed, and a suffocating pressure enveloped the entire area.
The nearby Soul Masters trembled and hurriedly moved away from the area.
"Is His Majesty Zhen Hua undergoing Heavenly Forging? Something feels off. Compared to previous Tribulation Lightning, this one seems even more terrifying?"
"... Why does this feel like Heavenly Tribulation for Soul Beast? Judging from the aura brewing within the Tribulation Lightning, the Ferocious Beast undergoing the tribulation is extremely powerful. It's probably at the Limit level!"
While the Soul Masters outside were buzzing with discussion, inside the Blacksmith Association, Zhen Hua looked at Xiong Jun beside the Forging Platform and smirked, "Your Excellency Xiong Jun, you should leave the Ascension Platform immediately, lest the Tribulation Lightning affect this place."
"OK."
Xiong Jun scratched his head, sighed, and his whole body radiated violent Soul Power fluctuations. His arms were muscular and his golden hair shone brightly in the lightning.
"Boom--!"
A thick bolt of lightning tore through the sky and struck straight down! Xiong Jun roared, not dodging or avoiding it, but instead met the heavenly lightning head-on!
Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena, who were also in the Blacksmith Association, watched as Xiong Jun attracted the Tribulation Lightning. The latter tilted his head and said:
"Yuhao, how's your research on Tribulation Lightning going? Should we let Xiong Jun continue?"
"Still a long way off."
Huo Yuhao said, "However, after this, let Xiong Jun rest for a while."
Gu Yuena nodded slightly, "Okay."
The Xiong Jun in the sky almost burst into tears when he heard the two talking.
Is it finally time to stop trying?
Next time, please don't make fun of Ling Bing...
While Xiong Jun was being struck by lightning, the Star Luo Empire group also arrived at Heaven Dou City.
Along the way, they witnessed many differences between the Douluo Continent and Star Luo Continent.
In remote towns, there are spirit masters helping ordinary people escape poverty.
Near the Star Dou Great Forest, there is a landscape where Soul Beast and humans live in harmony.
These were scenes they had never experienced in the Star Luo Empire. As their knowledge grew, their initial confidence vanished, leaving only solemnity.
Upon arriving in Heaven Dou City and seeing the Tribulation Lightning of the Blacksmith Association in the distance, Chang Gongyan's eyes widened in shock. "That's the Blacksmith Association? Could this Tribulation Lightning be... the legendary Heavenly Forging?"
They, Star Luo Empire, do not have their own Divine Craftsman, which is another absolute gap between them and the Douluo Federation.
"..."
Gu Qinghan, who was assigned to accompany them, had a strange expression on her face.
Such power doesn't resemble Tribulation Lightning forged by Divine Craftsman... it's more like Heavenly Tribulation from Ferocious Beast.
