DD2—Chapter 58: Auspicious Beast
However, he has to complain a little. In the original novel, Huo Yuhao, as the founder of the Spirit Pagoda, should have made great contributions to the soul masters. After all, the spirit soul system has had a huge impact on both humans and soul beasts.
Soul masters have gained a lot of benefits from the soul system, and their strength has been greatly improved.
Therefore, there is absolutely no problem for them to worship Huo Yuhao as their ancestor. Although the spirit soul system is essentially something created by Electrolux, it was indeed Huo Yuhao who built the Spirit Pagoda and spread the spirit soul system to this world.
However, in the Tang Family Continent, Tang San's prestige is still unmatched.
Before the ten-thousand-year plan was revealed, people mentioned that Tang San's greatest contribution was defeating the inherently evil Spirit Hall.
Even though Huo Yuhao founded the Spirit Pagoda and allowed everyone to use spirit souls, he could not compare with Tang San in terms of prestige. The reason was very simple: Huo Yuhao failed to defeat the Spirit Hall. Spirit souls are not as important as defeating the Spirit Hall!
This is a difficult point to hold back. With time, the Spirit Hall has been swept into the garbage dump of history. The indigenous people of the Douluo Continent still use this to brag about it, making it seem as if the Douluo Continent people have been mentally stamped!
Jing Hongchen was moved after listening to Huo Yuhao's words. "So that's how it is. This is the spirit soul! There is no doubt that the spirit soul system is superior to the soul ring system. However, Yuhao, I have a question: How did you create the spirit soul?"
Huo Yuhao immediately responded, "The spirit soul was not created by me but by one of my teachers. However, due to some special reasons, my teacher is not convenient to meet you at the moment.
But I can guarantee with confidence that this system can be promoted in the future."
He didn't want to deprive Electrolux of his identity as the creator of the spirit soul system. After all, he was not Tang San, who had deprived him of the right to sign the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record.
"Teacher?" Jing Hongchen looked at Huo Yuhao deeply, somewhat unconvinced. "Your usual actions have traces to be found. So, in my opinion, the spirit soul must have been created by you.
As for the so-called teacher, it must be a false identity you fabricated to conceal your talent."
In Jing Hongchen's opinion, if what Huo Yuhao said was true and the spirit soul was created by one of his teachers, then this person definitely could not be unknown. He must have studied soul rings for many years and might even have published academic works on how to improve soul rings.
However, looking at the entire Douluo Continent, does such a person exist?
In the Sun-Moon Empire, scholars who study soul rings talk a lot all day long, but most of them use this subject to defraud royal funds and improve their lives. They do have some insights into spirit rings, but not much.
With their level, it is okay for them to publish various academic works to fool the royal family, but creating a cross-era product like the Spirit Soul is impossible.
Moreover, if Huo Yuhao's "teacher" was willing to stand up and declare his identity as the creator of the spirit souls, then this person's prestige in the Douluo Continent would undoubtedly be raised to an unimaginable level.
Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment, a little confused. "Wait, Dean, I am not the creator of the spirit soul. This was created by my teacher."
Jing Hongchen showed an expression that said, "I've seen through your thoughts a long time ago." He stretched out his hand, patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder, and then said slowly, "Okay, Yuhao, I know what you mean. You just don't want to become the target of public criticism. Indeed, the spirit soul system you created is too advanced and has extraordinary significance for soul masters.
If you demonstrate the benefits of the spirit soul in front of everyone, there will be a large group of people willing to follow you! However, this also means that some forces will target you."
Huo Yuhao wanted to explain, but at this moment, a voice from Electrolux came from the spiritual sea space: "Yuhao, there is no need to explain. It's good for you to become the creator of the spirit souls. The teacher is already dead and doesn't care about this title.
Let his misunderstanding continue; it's good for you anyway. After all, he won't believe anything you say now."
After hearing these words, Huo Yuhao had no choice but to stop refuting Jing Hongchen. He planned to clear Electrolux's name later.
Seeing Huo Yuhao like this, Jing Hongchen became more determined in his thoughts. He said, "Regarding the spirit soul system, I hope you can keep your mouth shut for now. When we return to Sun Moon Empire, I will take you to meet Master Kong in person. The spirit soul system is of great significance to soul masters.
If it can be promoted as you said, it means that the Holy Land of Soul Masters will be transferred from Shrek Academy to where you are. Wherever you are, that is the Holy Land of Soul Masters!"
Huo Yuhao smiled. "Dean, let's go back to Star Luo City first. We can talk about the soul matter later."
"Okay." Jing Hongchen nodded, then grabbed Huo Yuhao. Just as he was about to take off, a golden light flashed, and he saw a white horse with dragon scales wrapped in golden light.
"Is this the Millennium Sky Dragon Horse?" Jing Hongchen subconsciously stopped his action. This soul beast has the bloodline of the legendary Holy Dragon of Light, so it is also a rare soul beast with light attributes.
Of course, a ten-thousand-year-old Sky Dragon Horse is extremely rare; even in Jing Hongchen's life, he has only seen a ten-thousand-year-old Sky Dragon Horse once. As for a thousand-year-old Sky Dragon Horse, he has seen it many times. The main reason is that when a Sky Dragon Horse grows to the ten-thousand-year level, it will undergo a metamorphosis and a pair of dragon wings will grow on its body.
Of course, there is a success rate for metamorphosis. If the metamorphosis fails, it means a significant reduction in lifespan. Therefore, Sky Dragon Horses with high levels of cultivation are so rare.
At this time, a soul beast with an appearance similar to that of a lion, four claws like a dragon, and covered with fiery golden hair and fine scales under the hair ran out of the forest. It had a pair of normal golden eyes, but there was also a vertical pupil on its forehead that glowed red.
The soul beast knocked down the Millennium Dragon Horse, which let out a whine. The soul beast then bit the horse's head quickly cut, and began to taste its delicious meal.
"Strange, why doesn't the Millennium Sky Dragon Horse resist this golden lion? Logically speaking, it should resist at the last moment of its life," curiosity emerged on Jing Hongchen's face. He did not recognize the emperor's auspicious beast.
However, this is also normal; the imperial auspicious beast is too rare. Xuan Zi, in the original novel, has the support of the huge force of Shrek Academy, so he has some knowledge, but Xuan Zi does not recognize the imperial auspicious beast at first.
"The emperor's auspicious beast! The Three-Eyed Golden Lion!" A look of surprise appeared on Huo Yuhao's face. He immediately had the idea of getting close to the beast. After all, this way, he would have a third eye!
