Huo Yuhao stood in the Time Sea of Consciousness.
Suddenly, I realized that there was a very, very important matter at the node of the Holy Demon Continent. If I didn't go now, I might miss the node.
He once again entered the spacetime of the Holy Demon Continent node.
This time, however, he was directly teleported to the Tower of Eternity.
While Electrolux was talking to Long Haochen and Sheng Cai'er.
A dazzling golden beam of light descended from the sky and pierced through the top of the tower!
A figure in black robes, bathed in divine light, descended to earth like a god, and slowly landed in front of the three.
Huo Yuhao glanced at the three astonished men, a slight smile playing on his lips, and asked, "Did I... arrive at the wrong time?"
Electrolux smiled and said, "My good apprentice, you've come at just the right time. I was afraid I'd never see you again."
Long Haochen strode forward and excitedly grasped Huo Yuhao's hand. " Yuhao, you're finally back! Where have you been all this time?"
Huo Yuhao calmly said, " Haochen, I have returned to my own time and space."
Electrolux asked in confusion, "Time and space?"
Huo Yuhao said, "That's right, teacher, now that things have come to this, I don't need to hide it anymore."
He set up a protective barrier around them.
This can be considered a realm, and this realm is very similar to the Undead Demiplane.
"I hope that Haochen and Cai'er can keep what happened to us here a secret."
Sheng Cai'er looked in Huo Yuhao's direction with a puzzled expression in her beautiful eyes.
Huo Yuhao looked towards the direction of Electrolux on the Holy Demon Continent, "Teacher, does this domain look familiar to you?"
Electrolux from the Holy Demon Continent was filled with astonishment. "Isn't this my Undead Demiplane? You little brat, how could you...? Could it be..."
Huo Yuhao smiled.
"You're out now, teacher."
Before he finished speaking, a gentle and familiar aura emerged from between his brows. As the light coalesced, another phantom of Electrolux slowly appeared before everyone.
"This... this is?!" Long Haochen and Sheng Cai'er exclaimed in surprise at the same time, "Another teacher?!"
Electrolux from the Holy Demon Continent stared at the illusory figure of divine consciousness that resembled him perfectly yet possessed a completely different aura, his eyes filled with disbelief. "Another... me?" The remnant soul of Electrolux from the Douluo Continent nodded slightly, his tone calm yet weathered. "To be precise, it should be said that the other you is also a fragment of divine consciousness."
Electrolux from the Holy Demon Continent anxiously pressed, "What exactly is going on?"
Huo Yuhao explained, "Teacher, are you thinking about leaving this plane and going to another one in the future?"
"How did you know?" asked Electrolux the Holy Demon Continent.
Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and finally revealed the truth. "Because I am your future disciple. And this is you in the future."
Electrolux of the Holy Demon Continent suddenly realized. "So that's how it is... You come from the future!"
Huo Yuhao said, "That's right. Right after you left, Teacher, I met my younger self. We went through a lot and met many companions. But, Teacher, your future self disappeared again."
Electrolux from the Holy Demon Continent anxiously pressed, "What exactly happened?"
A flicker of pain and self-reproach crossed Huo Yuhao's eyes. "Speaking of which, it's all my fault. In my timeline, there was a Sea God King named Tang San. He held Dual Godhood and was an enforcer in the Divine Realm."
"When we were with the Clear Sky Sect, the sect Tang San belonged to before, we were tricked into absorbing the power of a ten-thousand-year-old ice bed, causing my companion, who was also my lover, to lose control of her primordial energy."
Huo Yuhao's voice trembled uncontrollably. "Back then... Teacher, to save me, you didn't hesitate to burn your last bit of divine consciousness to create something never before seen— Soul Spirit."
He closed his eyes, as if he were back in that heart-wrenching moment. "But teacher... you just left like that. No matter how hard I search, I can't find a trace of you anymore."
Electrolux of the Holy Demon Continent stared at the lingering divine consciousness from the future before him, keenly sensing the contradiction. "If that's the case, then why is my future self here? Yuhao, could it be that you've found fragments of my divine consciousness scattered across other planes?"
"No." Huo Yuhao slowly shook his head, his eyes flashing with determination. "After you left, I cultivated relentlessly, driven by the belief that I must resurrect you, and finally... achieved Godhood."
His tone suddenly became confused and pained. "But strangely, since you left, my memories of you have become increasingly blurry, as if... I'm about to forget you completely. I don't understand why..."
"Until--" Huo Yuhao's voice came to an abrupt halt.
Long Haochen couldn't help but press, " Yuhao, until what?"
Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and finally revealed the cruel truth:
"It wasn't until I truly inherited the Godhood of the God of Emotion that I realized I had already fallen into a meticulously designed trap—I was forced to become the son-in-law of the Sea God Tang San, and his daughter was like a shackle, binding me tightly. I gradually became a... puppet of the gods."
"A puppet of the gods?!" Electrolux of the Holy Demon Continent roared in fury, "How dare he do this! How dare he treat my disciple like this!"
Huo Yuhao continued:
"However, before a great war in the Divine Realm, when the God of Destruction stripped Tang San of his divine power and imprisoned him in the Sea God's mansion, I remembered who I was. Although I had faint memories before, Tang Wutong, Tang San's daughter, became a kind of demon before my eyes."
He suddenly knelt down, tears finally streaming down his face.
"My teacher treated me like his own child; he was both my mentor and my father. Besides him, I have no other family in the world... Yet, for a woman, I forgot everything my teacher did for me... I deserve to die!"
Two Electrolux, one from the Holy Demon Continent and the other from the Douluo Continent, stepped forward simultaneously, one on each side, to help him up, and said in unison:
" Yuhao, this isn't your fault."
Huo Yuhao was pulled to his feet and continued, "Later, my investigation revealed that the teacher hadn't actually disappeared at all."
A cold glint of anger flashed in his eyes. " Tang San laid countless schemes to completely control me, the chosen one of the Douluo Continent. Even my teacher's 'departure' was part of his meticulously planned scheme—I only learned the truth about all of this much later."
Huo Yuhao's fist clenched involuntarily, his knuckles turning white from the force. "How can I bear it? How can I bear to see my teacher trapped because of me?!"
"Therefore, after the Great War of the Divine Realm ended—I rebelled."
