Silver Dragon Reverse Scale
After Snow Empress broke through, the two stayed in the Star Dou Great Forest for a while longer.
Realizing he had been away from the academy for quite some time, Huo Yuhao hurriedly bid farewell to the Ferocious Beast.
"Dear seniors, I'm taking leave from school this time. My vacation is almost over, and I have to go. I'll come to visit you all after this year's courses are finished."
On the Lake of Life, Huo Yuhao said to the several Ferocious Beast with some reluctance.
Although these Ferocious Beast were all infamous in the outside world, they were like kind elders to Huo Yuhao.
However, this is not the most crucial point. The most crucial point is that the Lake of Life in the Land of Great Evil provides an even greater boost to Huo Yuhao's cultivation than the room he had in the Sea God's Pavilion.
After all, he could cultivate in the Lake of Life, where the vitality was most abundant. But in the Sea God's Pavilion, the room he was assigned was just an outer room of the Sea God's Pavilion.
"Young Huo, don't go! How am I, Old Xiong, supposed to live if you leave!"
Looking at the burly man Xiong Jun in front of him, who seemed reluctant to part, Huo Yuhao felt a chill run down his spine.
Ever since he ate Huo Yuhao's Grilled Fish and barbecue, Xiong Jun has become inseparable from Huo Yuhao's cooking. Almost every day, Xiong Jun can be seen hunting fresh Soul Beast outside and bringing them over for him to grill.
In just a few days, more than a dozen Soul Beast fell victim to Xiong Jun's wickedness, including three ten- Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
"Alright, Xiong Jun. What kind of behavior is that? Do you have even a trace of the dignity of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Clan chief?"
Di Tian felt a headache coming on when he saw Xiong Jun's expression. It was just a matter of skipping a few meals of Grilled Fish. At first, he even suspected that Huo Yuhao might have put something shady in the Grilled Fish.
However, after careful examination, it was discovered that Xiong Jun was simply a glutton.
"Yuhao, the human world outside is quite dangerous. These things are a small token of our appreciation. We hope you will be careful in the human world."
Huo Yuhao looked at her with a face full of questions as he handed a storage necklace to his Bi Ji.
He felt that these Ferocious Beast truly regarded him as Auspicious Beast, forgetting that he was actually a human.
"Thank you very much, Senior Bi Ji. By the way, why didn't Qiu'er come?"
After linking the necklace, Huo Yuhao looked at the crowd seeing them off with some surprise. He couldn't find Dong Qiu'er among them. Usually, Di Qiu'er loved to stay by his side and listen to his stories about the outside world.
What's wrong with me today? I haven't seen her at all.
Before Bi Ji could reply, a vibrant, clear, and melodious female voice came from afar.
"Yuhao, wait for me!"
Huo Yuhao turned around and saw a tall girl with long golden hair, dressed in a brown-yellow outfit with gold patterns, rushing towards Huo Yuhao.
Before Huo Yuhao could react, the blonde girl tackled him to the ground.
"Yuhao! Yuhao, do you think I look pretty in my human form?"
The blonde girl rode on Huo Yuhao 'Huo Yuhao back, shaking his shoulders with both hands and muttering to herself.
"Pretty!"
Looking at the pretty face so close to his, Huo Yuhao's face immediately turned red, and he subconsciously said something.
"You! You're Qiu'er?"
Huo Yuhao, realizing what was happening, stared at the blonde girl in front of him in disbelief.
"It's Sister Qiu'er!"
Riding on Huo Yuhao's back, Di Qiu'er emphasized in a serious tone.
"Qiu'er, how did you transform into human form?"
Bi Ji, standing beside the two, stared in shock at Di Qiu'er, who had transformed into human form.
"I want to go see the human world with my little brother Yuhao!"
"You! You're being ridiculous!"
Even a gentle woman like Bi Ji was rendered speechless by Di Qiu'er's words.
Standing next to Bi Ji, Di Tian exuded an aura of coldness that could freeze people to death.
He turned and looked at Huo Yuhao with a slightly murderous gaze. He did think highly of Huo Yuhao, but wasn't this all happening a bit too fast?
This blue-haired kid has only been here for less than ten days, and he's already run off with his beloved daughter whom he's raised for over ten thousand years.
In an instant, Di Tian somewhat understood those fathers-in-law who wanted to dismember the wild boar that had harmed their Xiao Bai.
Under Di Tian's gaze, which seemed to look at him like he was already dead, Huo Yuhao said:
"Senior Di Tian, you don't need to worry about Sister Qiu'er. Sister Xue'er and I will take good care of Qiu'er!"
Upon hearing this, Di Tian remained unmoved, though the murderous intent in his eyes dissipated considerably.
Remember what you said!
Now that Di Qiu'er has successfully transformed into human form, it's too late to say anything more.
Helplessly, he took something out of his pocket and handed it to Di Qiu'er.
"Here, take this. You must keep this with you."
Di Qiu'er carefully examined the item that Di Tian handed her; it was a black scale that looked about the size of her palm.
Seeing Qiu'er's puzzled look, Di Tian patiently explained to her:
"This is my Achilles' heel; it contains a portion of my power. It can shield you from harm, and if necessary, it can summon me to your side."
Every dragon has a scale on its body that is the opposite of the other scales; people call it the reverse scale.
Each dragon's reverse scale contains a portion of its power, and anyone who dares to touch or even tamper with it will incur the dragon's revenge. This is the meaning of the saying that touching a dragon's reverse scale means certain death.
"Also, it can conceal your aura as a Soul Beast."
Hearing Di Tian's last words, Di Qiu'er asked, somewhat puzzled:
"But after Di Tian successfully transformed into human form, he didn't have the aura of Soul Beast at all!"
"In case!"
"Oh!"
Upon hearing Di Tian's words, Di Qiu'er fell silent. She simply put the scale into her bosom.
"Yuhao, I have something for you too!"
Huo Yuhao summoned Xiao Yin and was about to ride away with Di Qiu'er when he heard Gu Yuena's voice coming from the Lake of Life behind them.
Gu Yuena rose from the bottom of the lake with her still pale face.
Gu Yuena took out a scale from her bosom that resembled Di Tian's.
"My Master, this is your Achilles' heel!"
When Di Tian saw what Gu Yuena took out, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"Sister Gu Yuena, what's wrong?"
Looking at the silvery-white scale that Gu Yuena handed him, Huo Yuhao asked, somewhat puzzled. He wasn't Soul Beast, so he shouldn't need the Silver Dragon Reverse Scale to conceal his Soul Beast aura, right?
"This is my Achilles' heel, used to conceal your aura as Child of Destiny."
After saying that, Gu Yuena pointed her finger towards the sky.
"Although the Douluo Continent is sealed off by the Plane Consciousness, this seal will only last for three or four years at most. When the seal is broken, you will be directly exposed to the gaze of the Divine Realm. This Reverse Scale can help you shield yourself from their prying eyes."
