After obtaining the Necromancy Demiplane from Electrolux, Su Ming immediately tried it out in the Douluo 1 timeline.
Unfortunately, the Necromancy Demiplane did not exist during the Douluo 1 era; the timeline in the Saint Demon Continent had not yet reached the point where Electrolux created the demiplane.
"What a pity. If it could connect to the Saint Demon Continent, then this Illusory History of mine could be expanded further."
The Illusory History had only expanded horizontally once before, and that time Su Ming had turned danger into safety and managed the expansion with the help of the Shura God.
If he could expand it using his own ability, that would be a recognition of his capabilities.
After all, the one who was Trinity was Su Ming himself; this Illusory History affected Su Ming's own cultivation, not the Shura God's.
Therefore, mastering the ability to explore was essential.
"Exploration..."
Perhaps, the faith of a God of Exploration was necessary.
Currently, horizontal expansion of the Illusory History relied on special means and couldn't be done autonomously. Su Ming felt that the faith of a God of Exploration would be useful to him.
Since the Necromancy Demiplane showed no reaction in Douluo 1, Su Ming naturally continued to consult Electrolux about creating secret realms.
Star Dou Great Forest.
Huo Yuhao's sudden appearance put the Shrek group on high alert.
"Yuhao? Is that you?" Wang Dong said in surprise.
"Wang Dong?"
Huo Yuhao was also puzzled.
His mind was still replaying the scene in the Valley of Questioning Love and Affection, wondering what it meant to 'go find your romantic fate' since he had no lover.
He never expected to directly hear a familiar voice.
Not just Wang Dong, but also the voices of Xuan Zi and the others.
"Where is this?"
He looked around, sensing the familiar life气息 (aura), and felt somewhat dazed for a moment.
"Star Dou Great Forest?"
How did I get to the Star Dou Great Forest?
Is this real or an illusion?
If it's an illusion, then this 'Questioning Love and Affection' is just too incredible, to the point that even the million-year Spirit Beast Tianmeng can't break it.
If this is real, then this 'Questioning Love and Affection' is even more incredible, because the distance from the Sun Moon Imperial Capital to the Star Dou Great Forest spans over half the continent. Being able to teleport directly such a long distance is nothing short of a divine miracle.
"Yuhao, why aren't you saying anything?" Wang Dong asked, puzzled.
"It's nothing, Wang Dong. Why are you all in the Star Dou Great Forest?"
"For a Spirit Hunt, of course," Wang Dong replied naturally.
Huo Yuhao observed Wang Dong's demeanor and felt it was no different from the Wang Dong he knew.
He looked at the others but couldn't detect any issues either.
"Yuhao, you shouldn't be in the Star Dou Great Forest; you should be in the Sun Moon Imperial Capital," Xuan Zi said with a serious expression.
He still regarded Huo Yuhao with suspicion.
He suspected this might not be the real Huo Yuhao.
Seeing Xuan Zi so vigilant, Huo Yuhao also began to doubt.
This Elder Xuan must be fake.
Elder Xuan not munching on a chicken leg but being so alert?
Noticing the doubt in Huo Yuhao's eyes, Xuan Zi actually breathed a sigh of relief.
He could notice the change in me? Could this Huo Yuhao really be the real Huo Yuhao?
"Wang Dong?"
Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Dong, seeking confirmation of Xuan Zi's authenticity.
Wang Dong nodded helplessly, came up to him, and whispered, "Not long ago, Su Ming came to Shrek City and caused a big scene in the Inner Court. Our academy's reputation was ruined. Elder Xuan, learning from this bitter experience, has reformed and is now very reliable."
Xuan Zi turned his head away, putting on an expression of disdaining to eavesdrop.
He tilted his head back slightly, striking a proud pose.
Don't look down on people.
I, Xuan Zi, can also get serious!
"Elder Xuan, my apologies for earlier."
Once Huo Yuhao confirmed it was indeed Xuan Zi, he immediately apologized.
He briefly summarized the reason for his appearance here.
He didn't explicitly mention anything about romantic fate or the like, only saying that he had accidentally entered a secret realm, received a trial, and was directly teleported here.
"A trial?"
Xuan Zi's eyes flickered, gradually brightening.
"To cross over half the continent... this must be a Divine Trial!"
It definitely involved a deity.
"Even if you can't become a god, there must be immense benefits. Yuhao, don't miss this opportunity."
Listening to Xuan Zi, the corner of Huo Yuhao's mouth twitched. He smiled wryly and replied, "I'll do my best, Elder Xuan."
He didn't understand things like love and affection at all; how was he supposed to pass the trial?
It was just too difficult.
If he really had to associate it with love, the only thing he could say was that the 'Radiant Neon Dress' from the depths of his memory moved him the most.
But that was clearly just an illusory product of their Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
"Wang Dong, tell me the truth, do you have an older sister or a younger sister?"
Suddenly asked this by Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong was a bit confused.
"Why do you ask?"
"It's about the 'Radiant Neon Dress' from our Martial Soul Fusion Skill. That phantom is based on you, but it's a girl, and you're not a girl."
Huo Yuhao got himself tangled up as he spoke.
But Wang Dong still understood what he meant.
His eyes shifted, and he said, "An older sister? Yes, I do have an older sister."
"Really? Then when can you introduce me to her?"
"In such a hurry?"
"Yes, it's related to my trial."
Wang Dong looked at Huo Yuhao with a suspicious gaze.
"I'll arrange it as soon as possible."
"Oh, by the way, Wang Dong, I haven't asked you yet. They are here for a Spirit Hunt, why are you tagging along?"
In this short time, Huo Yuhao had already sensed Wang Dong's Spirit Power; it wasn't stuck at a level requiring a full ten-rank breakthrough, so he didn't understand why Wang Dong was following the team.
"I'm not sure either. My Eldest Uncle told me there's an opportunity for me if I follow the team this time."
"Huh?"
Huo Yuhao was stunned.
What kind of mystical theory was this?
Having an opportunity to follow Xuan Zi on a Spirit Hunt?
If Xuan Zi weren't nearby, he would have openly mocked the idea.
Having experienced a Spirit Hunt with teachers from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy once, Huo Yuhao had a clear idea of what a proper Spirit Hunt should be like.
It was being protected thoroughly.
Even as an outsider, he felt completely safe.
In comparison, Xuan Zi was a bit...
Hard to describe in a few words.
Huo Yuhao insisted he hadn't been brainwashed in the Sun Moon Empire.
He had simply seen too many normal things.
"Such intense spatial fluctuations. Space is being forcibly distorted."
Electrolux, who was still teaching Su Ming, suddenly stopped, his expression very serious.
"Spatial distortion?"
Su Ming was surprised and asked Electrolux for the specific location.
Upon learning the location was the Valley of Questioning Love and Affection, Su Ming's face turned grim.
He knew what it was.
"Where did Tang San teleport Huo Yuhao to?"
He pondered.
In the original storyline, Huo Yuhao was teleported to the battlefield in the Mingdou Mountain Range to save Dai Hao.
And this time?
There shouldn't be intense fighting on the front lines.
Where could Huo Yuhao have gone?
Moreover, what method would be used for this 'dog training' this time?
