Chapter 113 - Silent Ashes

Huo Yuhao felt the profound mysteries within and couldn't help but reveal a subtle expression.

This was, White Clouds Drift Through the Emptiness for Thousands of Years? (It's Tang San skill as Sea God which is type of illusion, letting opponent fall into illusion of past memories)

Sea God Tang San, personally guiding a divine skill, and teaching his enemy!

It was truly... an indescribable scene.

The thought flashed by, and Huo Yuhao sat down cross-legged, using his spiritual power to imprint the mysteries into his mind, quickly immersing himself in it.

"This move embodies the essence of time," Snow Empress glanced at Huo Yuhao and sighed. "Because of the Evil Emperor, Yuhao has come into contact with the mysteries of time, so he's able to comprehend it faster than I could."

Tian Meng's eyes lit up, "Does the fragment contain the inheritance of a divine skill?"

The Sea God's divine skill against the Asura God Tang San... for some reason, just thinking about it was exciting.

"Exactly."

Elder Yi smiled and nodded, "A god's position represents all the inheritances of that deity. Tang San became a god ten thousand years ago, so he naturally comprehended all the powers of the Sea God. The god's position naturally includes those divine skill inheritances. I merely used my divine sense to activate the 'memories' contained within."

"However, not all fragments contain learnable divine skills. Yuhao is quite lucky; the first one he picked up had one. Later, I'll take action to collect all the fragments here and see what we can obtain."

Since he had already sensed the corresponding aura, finding these fragments wouldn't be too difficult. Moreover, the ocean had already informed them of the locations of those fragments. Now that they knew what these things were, they couldn't just leave them here.

Elder Yi glanced at the Deep Sea Demon Whale waiting in the ocean for Huo Yuhao's command and narrowed his eyes.

After all, someone was collecting these fragments.

By the time Huo Yuhao opened his eyes, it was already midnight. In front of him, there were three "Divine Core Crystals." Two of them had no divine skill inheritances, while the last one did, a divine skill that left a deep impression on Huo Yuhao:

Unfixed Storm!

Huo Yuhao: "...?!?"

Tang San was immobilized by Unfixed Storm. How could he have such a dream?

Huo Yuhao watched with mixed feelings as "Sea God" Tang San released several golden rings, experiencing the so-called Unfixed Storm, before turning to Elder Yi.

"Elder Yi, is this fragment from the core area?"

"Correct," Elder Yi nodded with a smile. "It's at the very center of the Deep Sea Abyss. It's likely the most core fragment of all the god position fragments. It still carries some of the Sea God's divine power, forcibly merging with the ocean. It's also the root cause of the ocean's aversion. Without divine sense, it's impossible to detect."

"..."

No wonder it's the core.

Unfixed Storm is the Sea God Tang San's strongest control divine skill, allowing him to stand equal with the other God Kings. It's only natural for it to be the core of the god's position... Hmm, is the God of Destruction afraid of this?

It doesn't seem like it...

Huo Yuhao felt somewhat bewildered.

Ever since entering the ocean, it felt like he had returned to ten thousand years ago, with opportunities inexplicably falling into his lap.

But...

"I'm increasingly suspecting whether Tang San left these intentionally, and if they were meant for one person."

Huo Yuhao frowned, "They were prepared for Wulin."

If Wulin obtained these god position fragments, he could naturally comprehend the various inheritances of the Sea God, even obtain the power of faith, and reshape the Sea God's position. This would greatly benefit Tang San's various plans.

After all, Wulin possesses the bloodline of the Sea God. According to the plan, the Plane Lord would be Tang Hao, and the ocean would naturally be very close to him.

Coupled with the faith power of the sea soul beasts, the possibility of reshaping the Sea God's position is not small. At that point, Tang San would have a lot of room to maneuver.

However, now, there are quite a few deviations.

Hearing Huo Yuhao's speculation, Tian Meng's expression changed, "It seems... not impossible. However, he probably miscalculated one thing: you're still here, and the plane's consciousness is also present."

If it weren't for Huo Yuhao enduring until ten thousand years later, the one who would have obtained these things should have been Tang Wulin. Then, the subsequent developments would have followed Tang San's plan.

"Forget it, it's just speculation. I've inexplicably come into contact with the Sea God's position, and my thoughts are a bit chaotic."

Huo Yuhao smiled and shook his head, standing up to look at the Deep Sea Demon Whale by the shore.

This guy was truly frightened; without his command, it didn't dare to move around.

According to it, it was searching for these god position fragments on behalf of the Demon Empress. The Demon Empress must have known their true nature.

The Demon Empress, who dreams of making Tang San suffer, would probably be overjoyed to see the Sea God's position fragments.

As for that Demon Spirit Great White Shark... was it guarding the remaining god position fragments?

Thinking of the Demon Spirit Great White Shark that attacked him immediately upon meeting, Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes.

This was off. As a subordinate of the Sea God, even though there was a Deep Sea Demon Whale snatching fragments, it didn't show concern for the god position fragments first. Clearly, there was a problem.

Huo Yuhao's mind was filled with various speculations, but he eventually suppressed his thoughts and looked at the faint smoke rising in the distance. "Teacher Mu Ye must be getting impatient. Let's go greet him first."

The spirit souls and Elder Yi nodded, about to return to the spiritual sea, but Huo Yuhao suddenly handed the four crystals to Elder Yi. "Elder Yi, I've already memorized all the inheritable skills. I just need time to comprehend them. I don't need these for the experience of shaping a god's position. Please destroy them."

Perhaps he was being too cautious, but if there was even a possibility that this was Tang San's scheme, he had to be careful. His speculations were just that, speculations. Keeping these divine core fragments with him could be a source of disaster.

Haven't you seen in various stories how fragments that are hard to gather always end up coming together due to coincidences?

In this matter, destroying a few to ensure they can never be complete is the best protection for himself and those around him.

Elder Yi paused, then smiled, "I knew you'd say that."

With that, a surge of gray divine sense power directly shattered the four crystals.

In Huo Yuhao's ears, the ocean seemed to cheer faintly, rejoicing at the disappearance of these divine core fragments.

A smile appeared on Huo Yuhao's face as he walked with Snow Empress, who was still outside, toward Mu Ye's location. He quietly activated the Innate Secret Technique, and a gray mist flashed in his eyes.

"Now it seems Teacher Mu Ye's method is feasible, but it'll take some time."

...

The time spent on this second awakening far exceeded Mu Ye's expectations. After forty-nine days, Huo Yuhao still hadn't awakened.

The forty-nine days were a special time limit for the Body Sect's second awakening. If it wasn't completed before this, the chances of success afterward were minimal.

At first, Mu Ye had wavered, even considering forcibly interrupting the awakening to prevent Huo Yuhao from suffering backlash. But every time he probed, he could feel the increasingly strong innate energy within Huo Yuhao, like a dormant dragon waiting for the final breakthrough.

So Mu Ye stuck with Huo Yuhao, and after three months, a change finally occurred.

The dark night sky was torn apart by a gray rift, and thick, liquid-like gray mist spread across the ocean, like a curtain from the underworld.

Mu Ye stood on the ocean surface ten meters away, his soul power barrier constantly sizzling and dissolving under the erosion of the gray mist, his face filled with disbelief.

Is this... a domain?

Huo Yuhao's entire body emitted gray mist, and his once lively eyes had turned into two pools of stagnant, deathly gray, like the waters of the River Styx.
