What had she forged?
Huo Yuhao looked at the colorful piece of rare metal in his hand, momentarily speechless.
This was Gu Yuena's ninth piece of work. She had barely managed to complete Hundred-Forging.
But in a sense, its properties had already changed. Huo Yuhao could sense elemental power in it.
This was not a good thing, because it Gu meant Yuena hadn't been able to control the degree properly.
However, glancing at Gu Yuena, who was sitting on a chair with a pale face, Huo Yuhao simply put away the rare metal, stepped forward, and said gently: "I'll walk you back to your room. Go get some rest."
In terms of spirit power, she really wasn't faking it. After nine consecutive attempts, even with Gu Yuena's control over the elements, the consumption was considerable.
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena squeezed out a faint smile and quietly gently. "Yes."
After escorting Gu Yuena to her dormitory door, Huo Yuhao asked: "What do you want for lunch? Still three Type A meals? I'll bring them back for you."
Gu Yuena's eyes lit up. She nodded. "Yes."
"..."
Her appetite hadn't diminished. That was good.
Huo Yuhao thought this, then turned and walked toward the cafeteria.
Gu Yuena watched him leave, then opened the door and returned to her room. She took out her soul tool light screen and looked at the pages she had recently been browsing. A small smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
These things invented by humans were really useful. The soul tool network had all kinds of advice on how to build closer relationships.
Now, Yuhao would take the initiative to care about her. According to the content of those posts, the two of them could already be considered to have a good relationship. Keep it up!
Huo Yuhao learned that Tang Wulin had joined the Spirit Transmission Tower at night, from information he saw on his soul tool light screen.
"..."
Somewhat unexpected, yet it seemed to make sense.
Nearby, Ice Empress noticed Huo Yuhao's action moves. She put down her soul tool light screen — she had been playing games on it — and came to stand behind Huo Yuhao, looking at the information on the screen with him.
"Yuhao, what do you plan to do with him? I thought before that you wanted an eye for an eye, but on this matter, you're mostly just watching."
When no one was around, she and Skydream would come out to get some fresh air. With all kinds of new and interesting inventions by humans, the two of them didn't feel bored.
On the other side, Skydream — who had taken the form of a young boy — had lost his teammate. He put down his game as well and came over, clicking his tongue in wonder as he looked at the screen.
"I just want to know — what would the Sea God's divine consciousness think when he sees this?"
Huo Yuhao answered Ice Empress's question. "I'll treat him as he should be treated. I don't think my character is particularly good, but I'm not at the point of targeting a child."
"Hate can twist a person completely. I've always kept Elder Electrolux's deeds and warnings in my heart."
He smiled as he said this, his expression gentle. "You could also say that I'm talking from a comfortable position. I have all of you, I have Snow Empress protecting me — I haven't really suffered much."
Had he had a hard life?
The process was a bit hard work, but it was manageable. He had gotten through it.
Had he endured the suffering that the original Huo Yuhao had experienced?
No.
So he could look at Tang Wulin with a relatively calm mindset.
If he had experienced all kinds of hardships, he might not be able to maintain this peaceful attitude.
But people lived in the present, not in "ifs."
"Right now, he and I are just classmates. If we become enemies in the future, I'll deal with it then. But we haven't reached that point yet."
Huo Yuhao looked at Ice Empress and smiled. "Thank you for your concern, Ice Empress. To me, you all are more important. When the time comes to decide, I won't hesitate."
Ice Empress looked away. "That's good."
Skydream said emotionally: "Yuhao, after ten thousand years, you still haven't changed."
Huo Yuhao chuckled and shook his head. "In a sense, I just slept for a while. What could change?"
In Huo Yuhao's Sea of Spirit, Electrolux who had not gone out nodded with satisfaction.
The ten-thousand-year slumber, the pressure from the deity —none of it had changed Yuhao. He would not become another version of himself. This was what pleased Electrolux the most.
This was also why, having sensed the many secrets on Huo Yuhao's body, he had still been willing to pass on his legacy to him.
A wave of life-filled fluctuation rippled silently through the Sea of Spirit. An aura different from the Gold of Life made Elder Electrolux pause. His expression shifted slightly as he looked toward the deepest mark. He frowned at first, then smiled.
At night, as Huo Yuhao was meditating, he suddenly frowned. When he opened his eyes, he saw a forest.
Tall trees and bushes nearly as high as a person surrounded him, limiting his view. A rich natural atmosphere pervaded the area, and he sensed no threat whatsoever. Everything was peaceful. The vast vitality of nature flowed gently through his senses.
This place was...
Huo Yuhao frowned, then looked as though he had understood something.
There was only one being beside him who could do this, wasn't there?
Beside him, the figures of Skydream, Ice Empress, and Electrolux appeared one after another. The first two looked at their surroundings with some awe.
Ice Empress said: "Elder Electrolux, you said before that the existence that left that mark did this. Is it a god?"
"It is a Divine Artifact — the Throne of Eternity and Creation God-Imprint. This should be its internal space — the Eternal Domain."
Electrolux smiled. "Although it's not the whole thing, it seems to be fairly satisfied with Yuhao."
"I haven't really done anything lately..." Huo Yuhao was somewhat speechless.
"There's no need to do anything special. You are different from others. It has been watching you. Satisfaction or dissatisfaction is entirely within its own thoughts," Electrolux said in a low voice. "Besides — ten thousand years have passed, and your original intention and original intention has not changed. Isn't that enough?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao said nothing.
If you were talking about his determination to defeat Tang San — then yes, that original intention hadn't changed.
"Well said — 'your original intention and intention has not changed.'"
A cold, proud voice sounded from midair.
A pillar of white light descended straight down. After lasting about three seconds, the pillar of light slowly dissipated, and a figure appeared in the air.
She was a woman golden-haired, golden-eyed. Her figure was tall and slender. Her every movement revealed an innate noble temperament. Behind her were six pairs of wings twelve wings in total pure white and flawless, shimmering with a faint luster under the sunlight.
In her right hand was a long, slender white magic staff, within which gathered the power of the sun, moon, and stars. One looked at it, and one seemed to see the stars in the sky.
Huo Yuhao knew who this was.
Within the Throne of Eternity and Creation God-Imprint's internal space, besides the Lord artifact soul — the Eternal Lord — there were also three artifact spirits.
Huo Yuhao didn't understand why there needed to be artifact spirits in addition to an artifact soul, but those were the settings, so he could only respect them.
The one before them was one of the Eternal Domain's three artifact spirits — the Eternal Angel, representing the power of the stars. She was the strongest of the three artifact spirits.
The other two were the Holy Sacred Dragon and King Easton, representing the power of life and the power of nature.
The Eternal Angel glanced coldly at Huo Yuhao and was about to speak when she heard Skydream, who had calmed down, say:
"Yuhao, why do all these powerful beings like to put on such flashy special effects when they appear?"
"Brother Skydream, your first appearance was pretty much the same. Elder Electrolux too he even said something that left a deep impression on me."
Electrolux: "...Yuhao, don't bring that up right now."
Eternal Angel: "..."
Weren't you here to accept a trial? Why aren't you nervous at all?
