"So that's how it is. I am not human, but the spirit of Dragon Clan Law Saber— "

Sima Jinchi wore a bitter smile, his feelings incredibly complex.

However, because Gu Yuena had told him some things beforehand, he was still shocked when he finally learned the truth, but he didn't break down or lose his composure. After all, this was a choice he made himself.

He has now truly reached the state of oneness with his sword; he is the Dragon Clan Law Saber, and the Dragon Clan Law Saber is him. Absolutely no one can surpass him at this level.

and----

His gaze fell upon his Ninth Soul Ring, a dazzling golden God Rank Soul Ring.

Unlike the original story, because it was Gu Yuena who controlled the power of the Heart of the Dragon God that awakened his Ninth Soul Ring, he did not need to cooperate with Dragon God Bloodline user to use it. He could use his Ninth Soul Skill his own, although its power was relatively weak.

With his Ninth Soul Skill, Sima Jinchi was confident that after obtaining the Three-Word Battle Armor, he would be virtually invincible below the Limit. If he were given a Four-Word Battle Armor, he was even confident that he could face some weaker opponents below the Limit.

If the Limit Douluo he faces has a dragon-type Martial Soul, he can even seal the opponent's Martial Soul for a period of time. Fighting a Limit without Martial Soul gives him the advantage!

I did become stronger after I stopped being human.

Dragon Clan Law Saber - It's amazing!

At this moment, Sima Jinchi also realized Gu Yuena's true identity: she was not one of the rumored Elemental God, but the inheritor of the Dragon God!

"Greetings, My Master!" Sima Jinchi knelt on one knee again, this time more solemnly and with greater sincerity than before. "Thank you, My Master, for allowing me to understand my true form."

Gu Yuena snapped out of her reverie, her eyes swirling with a mix of emotions, which she suppressed for the moment and nodded faintly.

"Rise. What I said before was merely to prepare you mentally; I had no intention of transforming you back into Divine Tool. The era of the Dragon Clan is long gone, and the identity of the Dragon Clan Law Saber is now meaningless. However, now that you have understood your true form, you should strive to cultivate diligently and not tarnish the prestige of the Dragon Clan Law Saber."

For her, the Dragon Clan Law Saber Divine Tool truly useless; it would be better to let the other party grow up as a human.

Perhaps it will come in handy in the future.

Upon hearing this, Sima Jinchi felt relieved, stood up, and bowed solemnly. "Thank you for your kindness, my Master. I will certainly strive to cultivate diligently!"

After all these years, even though the Law Saber is his true form, it's still hard for him to accept being treated as just an object.

Gu Yuena's words completely dispelled his concerns.

Relaxed, Sima Jinchi looked at Huo Yuhao beside Gu Yuena and asked hesitantly, "May I ask which prince this is?"

Huo Yuhao also possesses the aura of the Dragon God and has a close relationship with Gu Yuena. He doesn't seem like the legendary Fire God of Fire at all. In Sima Jinchi's eyes, he is very likely also a Dragon Clan God.

I don't know which of the Ten Dragon Kings it is, but it certainly can't be the Golden Dragon King.

Huo Yuhao knew he had misunderstood, and shook his head, saying, "I am not Dragon Clan, but a human."

Sima Jinchi was taken aback, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes.

In his eyes, Huo Yuhao must be a god. Given the circumstances of the war in the Divine Realm, it was hard for him to believe that the Silver Dragon King Master be on good terms with a human god.

However, he also discerned their relationship from the subtle, unspoken understanding between them. On second thought, he was now human, Master's future husband was human, so it wasn't necessarily a bad thing.

If the Master to exterminate humanity, then he truly didn't know how he would cope.

From now on, you can treat Yuhao as if you were seeing me.

Gu Yuena's voice rang out softly, interrupting Sima Jinchi's thoughts.

Sima Jinchi a beat. He quickly composed himself and solemnly replied, "Yes, my Master."

He looked up at Huo Yuhao, his gaze even more respectful than before.

The Master said, "See him as you see me," and everyone can understand the weight of that statement.

Huo Yuhao felt his gaze and waved his hand. "No need to be so nervous, just relax."

Sima Jinchi nodded, but he didn't dare to be too casual.

He said respectfully, "Greetings, Lord Huo Yuhao."

Huo Yuhao didn't say anything more, just smiled. Seeing that Gu Yuena seemed to be thinking about something and the atmosphere was a little quiet, he casually asked a question that he cared about.

"As Dragon Clan Law Saber, what rank did you reach at your peak?"

There are two types of Dragon Clan Law Saber: one is naturally a top-tier Divine Tool, and the other is Super Divine Tool.

However, the descriptions of Divine Tool are relatively clear, while the descriptions of Super Divine Tool were discovered by netizens from previous generations through some details.

For example, when Tang Wulin used the Law Saber to fight Enci in Douluo 3, it was said that it was a dragon Dragon Clan Law Saber personally made by the Dragon God, and even a level above the Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King -- well, let's just forget about that.

After all, there's no comparison between Divine Tool and deities. Without a master, even Super Divine Tool can't contend with a Half-step God King. What's being compared here isn't strength, but essence. Although the essence of the Dragon God's half-body can't compare to the Law Saber made from the Dragon God's horns, which seems very strange, there's no other possibility.

Excluding this point, the arguments for proving that the Dragon Clan Law Saber is Super Divine Tool boil down to two events from the Douluo 4 era.

One is the past scene that Lan Xuanyu saw when he was taking the Dragon God Trial —before the great war broke out in the Dragon God Realm, the Dragon Clan Law Saber knocked away the Asura God who wanted to "attack" the Dragon God —this was also the scene that Huo Yuhao saw on the light screen before.

However, the Asura God at the time was hesitant about whether to kill the Dragon God to save the Divine Realm. He was even stunned on the spot when he heard the Dragon Clan Law Saber's shout, and was caught off guard. Therefore, this matter is a bit difficult to judge, and can only explain so much. It is hard to use as conclusive evidence for determining rank.

Secondly, the Dragon Clan of the Dragon-Horse Twin Stars in Douluo 4 created a counterfeit Dragon Clan Law Saber sword, which was ranked as Super Divine Tool.

The original text, when comparing the fake and the genuine artifact, only stated that the fake was inferior to the genuine artifact in some aspects, but did not mention that it surpassed the genuine artifact.

However, it wasn't stated that the genuine item was of a higher grade than the fake. After all, by the time of Douluo 4 Era, the real Dragon Clan Law Saber had vanished, and Sima Jinchi was nowhere to be found. Therefore, the grade of the genuine item was never clearly stated.

Therefore, in general, the persuasiveness of these two arguments is limited; they only make the grade of the Dragon Clan Law Saber somewhat ambiguous and cannot prove that it is Super Divine Tool.

Therefore, Huo Yuhao was somewhat curious about this.

Hearing Huo Yuhao's question, Sima Jinchi was somewhat puzzled, but still answered, "I am the Dragon Clan's Enforcement Blade. When it comes to targeting the Dragon Clan, my power at my peak is no different from that of Super Divine Tool. Moreover, I was personally forged by the Dragon God using his own dragon horn. In the Dragon God God's hands, I can also unleash power comparable to some Super Divine Tool. But in terms of rank alone, I am just like the Golden Dragon Spear forged by the Dragon God, both being top-tier Divine Tool below the Super Divine Tool."

He thought Huo Yuhao asked this question to find out his value, so he talked a lot.

This is also one of his future bosses; he needs to perform well.

Upon hearing this answer, Huo Yuhao drew the following conclusion:

A god-tier warrior in civil wars, possessing his own unique Divine Tool.

It was a very clear positioning, and Huo Yuhao wasn't disappointed.

After all, the possibility of the Dragon Clan Law Saber being Super Divine Tool is already very small. In the Douluo 4 installment of the Warcraft series, the Golden Dragon Spear was changed from being forged from the rib of the Golden Dragon King to being transformed from the rib of the Dragon God. It was not Super Divine Tool, but it had power no weaker than Super Divine Tool in the hands of the Little Dragon God. The Dragon Clan Law Saber is obviously unlikely to be Super Divine Tool either.

Hearing their conversation, Gu Yuena snapped out of her reverie, her mood somewhat somber, but she still added, "The Dragon God didn't forge any offensive Super Divine Tool during his lifetime, only leaving behind the Dragon Ascending Dragon Pillar, a Super Divine Tool that enhances the strength of the Dragon Clan. Because he didn't really need it; his body was the strongest weapon."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao thought of the Physical Fitness displayed by the Golden Dragon King and couldn't help but nod.

Physical strength, when it reaches a certain level, is also terrifying. Faced with the Space-Time Turbulence that made the Divine Realm feel threatened, the Golden Dragon King could traverse it with his physical body. Otherwise, the Golden Dragon King would not have been able to ignore the threat of the Space-Time Turbulence and go to fight the Gods of the Divine Realm.

If the Golden Dragon King is like this, the Dragon God's physical body can only be stronger.

But then, what was the Dragon God's purpose in forging the Golden Dragon Spear? Did he actually use it in battle?

Huo Yuhao muttered a curse under his breath, then glanced at Gu Yuena, who seemed to be in a bad mood, and said to Sima Jinchi:

Did you come to Mingdu to participate in the Federation selection?

Sima Jinchi was taken aback, then nodded and said, "That's right, I was originally a member of the Southern Legion of the Federation. This time, for training and selection rewards, I participated in the selection under a different identity."

He paused, then added, "Originally, I wanted to challenge the strong in the selection process to break through my bottleneck. Unexpectedly—"

Unexpectedly, he encountered these two, which directly awakened his true nature and broke through the barrier that had troubled him for many years.

Huo Yuhao said, "In that case, go back and prepare for the selection today. Do your job well and be ready to be called upon at any time."

"----yes!"

Sima Jinchi was taken aback, glanced at Gu Yuena as if seeking instructions, and seeing that she did not say anything, he obeyed and left.

Once only she and Huo Yuhao were left, Gu Yuena leaned against Huo Yuhao and sighed softly.

Huo Yuhao gently put his arm around her waist and asked softly, "What's wrong? Still thinking about those scenes from earlier?"

Gu Yuena remained silent for a moment, then nodded slightly.

"As you know, I only have a portion of the Dragon God's memories, mainly some common sense and various inheritances. I don't know much about that war of the gods back then; I filled in the gaps later through some records and Di Tian's descriptions. I've also told you about the war of the Divine Realm as we see it, do you remember?"

Huo Yuhao nodded with a strange look in his eyes.

Of course he remembered, and the memory was still vivid.

Di Tian and Gu Yuena's version of the War of the Divine Realm is as follows: A Dragon God led numerous divine beasts in a battle against the Gods, ultimately losing. The Dragon God was killed by the Asura God and transformed into two dragon kings. Then, the defeated beasts were punished by the Divine Realm, forbidden from becoming gods themselves.

Asura God: I've already said this is Unofficial History, you're slandering me!

To be honest, when Huo Yuhao first heard this version from Gu Yuena, he couldn't hold back at all. But after thinking about it, he realized that from the perspective of ordinary gods, this was indeed the truth.

After all, the beast-like deities certainly wouldn't believe that the Dragon God and the Dragon Kings had completely ignored their lives; in their eyes, the Dragon God and the Dragon Kings must have been killed by the Asura God and others while charging on the front lines. The human deities, on the other hand, couldn't accept that their victory was due to various misunderstandings and extraordinary wisdom. Neither side could accept that the cause of a divine war was so absurd.

Therefore, after that divine war occurred, whether in the eyes of the Beast Race gods or the human gods, the war of the Divine Realm mentioned by Gu Yuena and Di Tian was the truth, and the truth could only be this.

However, Gu Yuena has now clearly noticed something amiss from the previous footage.

"Back then, the Dragon Clan Law Saber didn't listen carefully to the Asura God's explanation because the Asura God intended to attack the Dragon God. But I just reviewed the Dragon Clan Law Saber's memories and noticed the Asura God's explanation."

Gu Yuena spoke softly, her voice filled with confusion and bewilderment, "He said the Dragon God went mad, killed several Dragon Kings, and the remaining Dragon Kings committed suicide—if the Dragon Kings were truly killed by the Asura God, would he come up with such an outrageous reason? No normal person could come up with such a reason, right?"

Huo Yuhao almost lost his composure.

Yes, no normal person could come up with that reason.

But that's precisely the truth.

A truth so outrageous that no one wants to believe it.

"So you think—" Huo Yuhao looked down at Gu Yuena and said softly, "That this actually proves it's true?"

Gu Yuena nodded, her expression complex.

"If the Asura God wanted to fabricate a lie, he would have a better explanation than this. And if the truth is as the Asura God says, then—the war in the Divine Realm back then was just a misunderstanding?"

Finally, Gu Yuena looked up and stared intently at Huo Yuhao, "Yuhao, back in the Star Luo Empire, you said you would tell me the truth."

Looking into Gu Yuena's determined purple eyes, Huo Yuhao knew that he couldn't avoid it today.

"You really want to know?"

Gu Yuena nodded.

Even if the truth is outrageous, absurd, and might even make your Dragon Clan race a laughing stock?

Gu Yuena remained silent for a moment, then nodded.

Huo Yuhao looked at her and slowly said, "Alright, I'll tell you what I know. What you just thought is indeed true, Dragon God— "

He attempted to evolve the Dragon God Realm into God Star, but failed. The Dragon God went mad due to the sacrifice of his son, and the Dragon King committed suicide.

The Dragon God told Gu Yuena everything, including the order that Soul Beast could not become gods.

Upon hearing these outrageous truths, Gu Yuena's eyes flashed with disbelief.

If Huo Yuhao hadn't told her all this, and if she hadn't already guessed part of it, she wouldn't have believed it at all.

These facts were even more exaggerated and outrageous than she had imagined.

She had speculated on various reasons why the Dragon Kings committed suicide, but she never imagined that the Light Dragon King and the Darkness Dragon King chose to commit suicide because they could not stand by and watch the Asura God kill the Dragon God.

Are you even conscious? Have your brains become rusty from living for hundreds of thousands, even millions of years?

Such a reason for suicide—could any intelligent being possibly come up with it?!

Didn't you consider that if you all died, what would the beast gods do?!

And the Dragon God ----

Gu Yuena truly hadn't expected that the real Dragon God would be so—abstract.

The God King who established the rule that Soul Beast could not become gods was himself, and his reason was that he feared the hatred between humans and beast gods would continue, making it difficult for Beast Race to become gods in the Divine Realm in the future.

Fearing that Beast Race who become gods would meet a bad end in the Divine Realm, they simply prevented them from becoming gods altogether, letting them die under the Tribulation Lightning?

Fearing their child would be bullied outside, some parents simply strangled the child at home so the child would never be bullied again?

Is this the wise Dragon God? What astonishing wisdom!

Gu Yuena couldn't understand it, nor could she comprehend it.

At that moment, she felt something inside her crack open.
