Xiong Jun unleashed an enthusiasm far exceeding that of any other ferocious beast upon Huo Yuhao's return to the Lake of Life.
After Di Tian went to Di'ao Academy, Xiong Jun no longer concealed his deal with Huo Yuhao and stated that he would defeat Di Tian.
The Demon King and the Crimson King didn't want to join in on the Bear King's antics.
Only Zi Ji, who had been lying dormant in the Lake of Life, was somewhat curious about the new methods that Xiong Jun had mentioned.
When Huo Yuhao last came to the Lake of Life, she was still in seclusion and therefore did not know about Huo Yuhao.
After bringing Huo Yuhao and Gu Mingxi back to the Lake of Life, Di Tian let them cultivate on their own.
Afterwards, Di Tian explained to Zi Ji, the Demon Dragon King of Hell, that Huo Yuhao might be the successor of the Dragon God's Crown Prince.
"This has been confirmed by the Lord."
Di Tian looked at Zi Ji, whose face showed shock: "Your innate abilities are Yin Water and Devouring. You will come with us when the time comes."
"Although Huo Yuhao mainly obtained his soul rings from dragon soul beasts, they still have ice attributes."
"His ice is ice of natural reincarnation. First, use your Yin Water to sense and find a dragon soul beast with similar abilities."
In Di Tian's plan, Zi Ji, who has the talent of Yin Water, is the most suitable dragon soul beast to find Huo Yuhao's fourth soul ring.
Yin water, Yang water—Di Tian wanted Huo Yuhao's ice to possess the ability to evolve between Yin and Yang.
In this way, Huo Yuhao can lay the foundation in advance for inheriting the laws of natural reincarnation in the future.
Having a dragon soul ring with the Yin Water attribute would be more suitable for Huo Yuhao's current ice form.
After hearing Di Tian's words, a strange light flashed in Zi Ji's eyes: "I understand."
Then she looked at Huo Yuhao, who was talking to Xiong Jun, and whispered, "Is he really the successor to the Crown Prince?"
"I don't doubt the Lord's meaning, I just find it incredible."
Di Tian's gaze was profound: "He was chosen by the auspicious beasts of the far north and the starry sky, and a group of dragon martial soul owners have gathered around him, from the Crimson Dragon to the Thunder Dragon, then to the Crimson Dragon, and even the Spirit Dragon."
"This is no accident."
Zi Ji nodded slightly, and a hint of awe unconsciously crept into her gaze as she looked at Huo Yuhao.
"If he can truly inherit the Crown Prince's will, then the future of the Soul Beast race will inevitably change because of him."
Di Tian's gaze was firm: "Therefore, we must do everything we can to help him grow."
"If Xiong-kun wants to make contact with him, then let him."
"As the patriarch of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear clan, Bear King still possesses the remains of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's right palm bone."
"What I need to do is to get Xiong Jun to use this external soul bone to make a deal with Huo Yuhao as much as possible."
Zi Ji revealed a look of sudden realization: "No wonder you didn't stop Xiong Jun and Huo Yuhao from learning the Heaven-Tearing Hand."
"Huo Yuhao can show Xiong Jun a chance to defeat me," Di Tian said with a slight smile. "Xiong Jun will naturally spare no effort."
"When Xiong Jun challenges me, that will be the time to prepare an external soul bone for Huo Yuhao."
Meanwhile, Xiong Jun, in human form, was excitedly patting Huo Yuhao on the shoulder.
"Kid, you've come back just in time!"
Xiong Jun grinned: "I promised you I'd catch a spirit beast, and I just happened to find one a few days ago."
"That guy was hiding very well, but he still couldn't escape the nose of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear clan."
Huo Yuhao became interested, not expecting Xiong Jun to have gained something so quickly.
Moreover, a spirit beast that Xiong Jun specifically mentioned must not be an ordinary spirit-type spirit beast.
So Huo Yuhao asked, "Senior Xiong Jun, what kind of spirit beast is that mental-type spirit beast?"
"So, it's actually worth you personally going to capture it?"
Huo Yuhao subtly flattered Xiong Jun.
In the future, Huo Yuhao will have to rely on Xiong Jun to capture as many spirit-type soul beasts as possible.
Xiong Jun clearly enjoyed Huo Yuhao's flattery.
If it weren't for Di Tian being above them, Xiong Jun would have wanted Huo Yuhao to call him "Big Brother" directly.
Aside from keeping something secret from Di Tian, Xiong Jun has no habit of keeping secrets from others.
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's question, Xiong Jun stated directly, "It's a Silver Elite Beast."
"This race has a very poor reproductive capacity and is extremely rare in the Star Dou Great Forest. If it weren't for our intervention..."
They may have gone extinct long ago.
After hearing Xiong Jun's words, Huo Yuhao's face showed a shocked expression.
The Silver Spirit Beast, a type of soul beast, hasn't gone extinct yet?!
Huo Yuhao instantly recalled the records about the Silver Elite Beasts.
Innate Soul Skill: Imprint.
A powerful soul skill that can be copied and stored from an opponent's soul skill, and whose release timing can be freely chosen.
This soul skill is only limited by the Silver Beast's own cultivation level, but the power of the soul skill is not.
For example, if the Silver Spirit Beast's cultivation level is comparable to that of the Bear Lord, then by imprinting the Bear Lord's Sky-Tearing Claw, the Silver Spirit Beast can unleash the effect of the Bear Lord's personal presence.
If the Silver Spirit Beast's cultivation level is stronger than that of the Bear Lord, then the Silver Spirit Beast will unleash a Sky-Tearing Claw with power far exceeding that of the Bear Lord.
However, such a talent-based soul skill also has a very deep limitation: a Silver Spirit Beast can only imprint one soul skill at a time.
However, the number of times it makes rubbings is no less than three times a day.
If Huo Yuhao can learn the imprinting skill from the Silver Beast using the Spirit Eye Seal, his fighting style will undergo a significant change.
Seeing Huo Yuhao's shocked expression, Xiong Jun couldn't help but reveal a smug smile: "How about that? Wasn't I generous enough?"
Then Xiong Jun walked behind a giant tree and led out a Silver Beast.
Gu Mingxi noticed Xiong Jun's actions and a look of reminiscence appeared on her face.
Before she transformed into human form, a silver beast had caused her considerable trouble.
However, the silver beast that Xiong Jun captured was clearly not the one she had encountered before.
Originally, the Demon King and the Crimson King opposed Xiong Jun's idea of capturing a spirit-type soul beast for Huo Yuhao.
However, after hearing Xiong Jun say that Huo Yuhao only wanted to observe and learn, not to hunt, they became too lazy to dissuade him.
The Silver Spirit Beast, with 30,000 years of cultivation, trembled.
Faced with a group of ferocious beasts, it was completely terrified.
When it saw Huo Yuhao, a human, standing in front of it, it was terrified and let out a desperate cry.
It had only one thought in its mind: that Xiong Jun wanted it to become this human's soul ring.
Huo Yuhao stepped forward, gently placed his palm on the forehead of the Silver Beast, and released a wisp of gentle spiritual energy.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to use you as a spirit ring."
The Silver Beast watched Huo Yuhao warily.
It intended to launch an attack, but under the bloodthirsty gaze of the several ferocious beasts, especially Xiong Jun, the Silver Beast ultimately abandoned its plan.
The Silver Beast carefully sensed the spiritual power transmitted by Huo Yuhao.
After confirming that Huo Yuhao truly meant him no harm, the Silver Beast relaxed its tense body slightly.
"Kid, you can study it on your own. I'm going to stretch my muscles first."
Xiong Jun clearly didn't care how Huo Yuhao observed the Silver Beasts.
He only cared about what kind of combat skills Huo Yuhao's Sky-Tearing Hand could bring him.
After giving Di Tian a highly provocative look, Xiong Jun turned and strode away.
Ignoring Xiong Jun's gaze, Di Tian looked curiously at Huo Yuhao.
This wasn't the first time Di Tian had heard of the idea of observing the innate soul skills of soul beasts and learning from them.
Initially, most of the self-created soul skills of human soul masters were created using this method.
However, this path is too difficult and requires a high level of talent, so gradually fewer and fewer people choose it.
After all, directly hunting soul beasts to obtain soul rings is a readily available way to acquire skills.
Even if one acquires certain soul skills, it doesn't depend on the soul master's wishes, but it ultimately saves a lot of time.
Di Tian looked at Huo Yuhao, wanting to know what kind of self-created soul skill Huo Yuhao could create from the Silver Beast.
Huo Yuhao continuously exchanged mental energy with the Silver Saints.
After understanding the meaning behind Huo Yuhao's mental expression, the Silver Beast showed a puzzled look in its eyes.
This human just wants to see his own innate soul skill?
Huo Yuhao used the Azure Sky Sea Dragon Transformation, allowing the Silver Spirit Beast to imprint it.
The Silver Beast hesitated before activating the imprint, transferring Huo Yuhao's Azure Sky Sea Dragon Transformation onto itself.
Huo Yuhao operated the Spirit Eye Talisman throughout, carefully observing the trajectory of the Silver Elite Beast's spiritual power through mental detection.
"To copy the trajectory of the other party's soul power in this way?"
"No, no, that's too simplistic."
Huo Yuhao had the Silver Beast unleash the Azure Sky Sea Dragon Transformation and asked it to make another copy.
As Di Tian watched Huo Yuhao and the Silver Beast get along harmoniously, a hint of admiration and melancholy flashed in his eyes.
The praise comes from the fact that Huo Yuhao actually tried to create his own soul skill by observing the imprint.
The sense of desolation stems from the fact that the harmonious coexistence of humans and soul beasts seems to only exist in Huo Yuhao's life.
"If only humans and spirit beasts could live together like this someday."
Under Huo Yuhao's guidance, the Silver Beast once again used the imprint technique.
Huo Yuhao was completely focused, carefully recording the subtle changes in the mental fluctuations of the Silver Elite Beast after it used the imprint.
Finally, Huo Yuhao closed his eyes and began to mentally rehearse the imprinting process.
The Silver Beast trembled as it looked at Di Tian.
Di Tian nodded: "You can stay here until he reaps any rewards."
"As long as you don't do anything excessive in the future, the Starry Sky Beast will guarantee your safety."
Since Huo Yuhao had established his first true connection with a soul beast, Di Tian decided to protect this Silver Elite Beast.
The Silver Beast immediately bowed down, showing its submission to Di Tian. It was also very surprised, never expecting that it would receive the protection of a Star Dou ferocious beast because of Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao was immersed in the deduction, trying to understand the imprinting ability of the Silver Beast.
This is no easy task.
Imprinting involves extremely complex mental manipulation and operation, and cannot be learned through one or two observations.
"I'm a little curious."
Di Tian approached Huo Yuhao, who had just opened his eyes, and asked, "What kind of soul skill do you want to create through imprinting?"
Huo Yuhao remained silent.
He hesitated whether to confess to Di Tian that he was able to learn the spirit-type soul beast skills through the Spirit Eye Talisman.
On the way back to Xingdou, Di Tian told him about his battle with the Evil Emperor.
Huo Yuhao was extremely envious of the Evil Emperor's soul skills such as the Light of Time and Space, the Light of Destruction, and the Evil Eye Gaze.
If possible in the future, he wants to go with Di Tian and Xue Di to capture the Evil Emperor and study him.
Huo Yuhao looked at Di Tian's eyes, which had returned to their golden state, and finally made up his mind.
Since Di Tian believes he is the hope for the future of humanity and soul beasts, then let's add fuel to the fire!
In any case, this ability of mine will not cause any loss to the soul beast.
Moreover, this would solidify his identity as a bridge between soul beasts and humans.
He had promised Tianmeng that he would let him fight Ditian, provided that the stability of the soul beast race was ensured.
Therefore, this ability of his was the key to making Di Tian believe that he was the key to peaceful coexistence between soul beasts and humans!
Even if the problem of spirit rings is still not fundamentally solved, it is still a big step forward!
Huo Yuhao clasped his hands and said, "Senior Di Tian, the reason I asked Senior Xiong Jun to capture a spirit-type soul beast for me is because my Spirit Eye Martial Soul has undergone a mutation after being passed down."
"It can no longer improve its strength by attaching spirit rings. Instead, it allows me to learn the spirit skills of spirit beasts by observing the energy flow and operation path during the execution of spirit skills."
Di Tian's previously calm face was now completely transformed into one of shock.
Not only him, but even Zi Ji, who was standing to the side, showed a look of horror.
Di Tian's voice trembled slightly: "You mean, your Spirit Eyes can directly learn the soul skills of soul beasts by observing their operation?"
Huo Yuhao nodded.
Di Tian took a deep breath, his golden dragon eyes flashing with undisguised shock and excitement.
He pointed to the Silver Beast resting not far away: "So what you were doing just now wasn't trying to create your own soul skill, but learning its imprinting skill?"
Huo Yuhao nodded again.
"No attribute restrictions?"
Huo Yuhao thought for a moment: "Theoretically, no."
"It's just that the Spirit Eye is a spirit-type martial soul, so spirit-attribute soul beasts are a natural fit."
"Learning skills from other elemental spirit beasts will not only prevent you from unleashing the full power of a spirit skill, but it will also waste a skill slot."
The number of seals is not unlimited.
Di Tian laughed loudly, tears even sliding down his cheeks: "Good! Good! Good!"
"Huo Yuhao, you truly are the chosen one, the future of the soul beast race!"
"No wonder the auspicious beasts of the far north and the stars chose you; you possess great fortune!"
"Bear Lord has done a great service. The imprint of the Silver Spirit Beast is perfect for laying the foundation for your Spirit Eyes!"
Huo Yuhao's ability is clearly the core of the Dragon God's mastery of the nine attributes of water, fire, earth, wind, light, darkness, space, time, and stability—the Return of All Laws to the Source!
And as the son of the Dragon God, how could the Dragon God's Crown Prince not inherit this ability?
After all, back then, the Dragon God Prince was a powerhouse second only to the Dragon God, capable of subduing the nine Dragon Kings single-handedly.
However, the Dragon Prince's talent in time management was more outstanding, which overshadowed the other brilliance.
As for the connection between the Spirit Eyes of the Spiritual Realm and time...
The Evil Emperor, who once came to the Star Dou Great Forest alone to challenge Di Tian, is also a mental being. Why does he possess the Light of Time and Space?
The spiritual system, the ice of natural reincarnation, the prototype of the return of all laws to the source, dragon combat skills, dragon transformation, the Heavenly Scale Ancient Halberd, the philosophy of dealing with soul beasts, the common choice of the extreme north and the Star Dou auspicious beasts, the leader of the Dragon Martial Soul team has met!
Everything makes sense!
Crown Prince!
He has definitely inherited the crown prince's legacy!
Besides the Dragon God and the Crown Prince, which other deity possesses the ability to allow humans to directly learn the innate soul skills of soul beasts through study?
Asura God?
What kind of person is his successor?!
If it weren't for the cheating of the divine realm, the joint successor of the Asura God and the Sea God would have been completely killed by the Rakshasa God and the Angel God!
This is a power that the divine realm does not currently possess!
Huo Yuhao is definitely the successor of the Dragon God Prince!
Seeing Di Tian so excited that he was in tears, Huo Yuhao knew that he had made the right bet.
However, Huo Yuhao still had doubts in his heart.
He hadn't solved the problem of the spirit ring system himself, so was Di Tian's current expression—was he overly excited?
After Huo Yuhao left.
Di Tian strode forward and went straight to the Silver Elf Beast's side: "From today onwards, you are the king of the Silver Elf Beast clan."
"I allow you to remain in the Lake of Life for cultivation forever."
Silver Beast was startled by Di Tian's sudden appearance.
It was trembling with fear, completely unable to believe what it had just heard.
Di Tian's voice was majestic and solemn: "You are responsible for fully assisting Huo Yuhao in learning rubbing."
"In return, the Star Dou Great Forest will forever protect your race."
"As long as you don't do anything excessive, as long as Stardust exists, the Silver Eagle Beast race will exist."
Then Di Tian looked in the direction of the Demon Forest.
"Evil Emperor, you were the one who conquered the Star Dou Great Forest back then, now it's my turn."
"In order to ensure the reappearance of the Crown Prince's legacy, your Evil Eye Clan will probably have to relocate from now on."
"I'm not afraid that Yuhao learns slowly, I'm just afraid that he doesn't learn enough!"
