Chapter 107: The Plunder of Fate Power
However, not long after they had adjusted, a familiar fluctuation came from the forest. Tian Meng even excitedly urged Huo Yuhao to get ready; his third Soul Ring had arrived. However, according to calculations, the limit Huo Yuhao could currently withstand for a third ring was around four thousand years. Tian Meng had a method to compress Soul Rings, which could allow Huo Yuhao to give it a try.
Huo Yuhao was also worried about whether something might go wrong, but Tian Meng swore to him that with him and the Ice Empress standing guard, there would absolutely be no problem with the absorption, and given his current physical constitution, he could fully attempt it.
However, the next instant was quite miserable. When Huo Yuhao said goodbye to everyone and was about to slip away, Su Yu did not stop him.
Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao also supported Huo Yuhao's decision. Just after the group had continued forward for a while, Xuan Lao appeared, and the roar of a ten-thousand-year Soul Beast came from the place where Huo Yuhao had disappeared.
When Xuan Lao appeared again, he had already pinned a strange beast to the ground that looked like a lion, with four claws like a dragon, feet treading on golden flames, and a body covered in golden scales.
However, at the same time, a huge figure also fiercely collided with Xuan Lao's Taotie Divine Ox martial soul. A massive force surged, and a heaven-shaking shockwave exploded with a boom.
Amidst this astonishing sound, Mo Feiyun and the others turned and ran. Such fluctuations had already reached the level of a Beast; if they were to get involved, wouldn't it be no different from courting death?
Su Yu was also very tactful and hid behind Xuan Lao. This level of battle was absolutely not something he, a Level Eight Soul Elder, could withstand; even the slightest aftershock could shake him to death.
Xuan Lao did have some misgivings; after all, the previous lesson was truly too profound. If he were to lose a few more students, he reckoned he might as well just slit his own throat on the spot.
"Chi Wang?" he asked in surprise, looking at the three-headed, lion-like Beast opposite him.
"You're saying that guy from Shrek!" Clearly, Xuan Lao had dealt with Chi Wang back in the day, otherwise Chi Wang's reaction could not have been so intense.
Su Yu knew what Chi Wang was worried about, so he said, "Xuan Lao, don't worry, Yu Hao is not dead yet. This Three-Eyed Golden Lion shouldn't actively attack Huo Yuhao."
"Right, human, calm down first. The Emperor Beast usually doesn't actively attack humans. Don't be in a hurry to make a move yet; quickly ask it if it really killed your student."
In this state, let alone Chi Wang, Xuan Lao might really dare to kill the Three-Eyed Golden Lion!
Having been grabbed by his weak point by Xuan Lao, he had no choice but to soften his stance this time.
However, at this moment, in Huo Yuhao's Spirit Sea, the Ice Empress was about to start a fight with Tian Meng, and the entire Spirit Sea was shaking violently.
"You really dare to hatch any kind of scheme; if an accident happens, I'll be killed here by you too!" The Ice Empress really wanted to beat Tian Meng up right now.
Tian Meng also said helplessly, "This can't be blamed on me either. I just felt that there was a Soul Beast very suitable for Huo Yuhao, so I..."
When both sides fell into a stable situation, Huo Yuhao also walked out from not far away.
With Xuan Lao's perception, it was impossible for him not to have discovered Huo Yuhao, but it was inevitable that there would be deviations in his blind rage, and the Chi Wang opposite was also being suppressed by Xuan Lao.
Following Huo Yuhao's appearance, Xuan Lao was also sitting on the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, leisurely drinking wine.
"Abominable human, get off me quickly! If you hurt me, I will make you suffer a terrible death and have bad luck one after another!"
A crisp, pleasant female voice entered everyone's ears. Xuan Lao just chuckled, not taking its words to heart at all. He slapped the Three-Eyed Golden Lion on the head, rubbed it forcefully, and pushed its head directly into the dirt.
Seeing this scene, even Su Yu was left speechless. This wasn't suppressing an Emperor Beast at all; it was simply petting a dog...
After experiencing Xuan Lao's ruthless mockery, Xuan Lao called Su Yu over. In terms of relationship, in the original work, Huo Yuhao and Xuan Lao had the best relationship, but the current Su Yu had saved Chen Zifeng and Yao Haoxuan from the hands of the Death Messenger, and had turned the tide in the battle at the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament...
For this reason, Xuan Lao often complained about Su Yu's personality on Sea God Island, and even during that period when he was cultivating in the Sea God Pavilion, Mu Lao had Xuan Lao go and give him some pointers...
Of course, a gentleman does not wait to take revenge. Xuan Lao had wanted to beat Su Yu up for a long time, so he just had Su Yu take a practical training lesson, which only ended after calling over a healing-type elder from the Sea God Pavilion.
"Xuan Lao, what are you planning to do?" Although Su Yu knew what Xuan Lao was going to do, he still asked out of habit.
Xuan Lao grabbed Su Yu and said, "Just come over when I tell you to; where did you get so much nonsense?"
As he spoke, he pressed Su Yu's head onto the third eye of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion. At the moment of contact, Su Yu's Eye of Life suddenly emerged, and a shining light exploded in Su Yu's Spirit Sea!
Electrolux also hid his power in a short instant, and the Ancestral Dragon phantom guarding Su Yu's mind also emitted a faint nine-colored light. Then the light dissipated, and everything fell into calm.
Circle after circle of strange halos appeared on Su Yu and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, but this time, only the Spirit Power and memories of both sides were exchanged. The vast life force remaining in the Eye of Life was suppressed within by the nine-colored light emitted by the Ancestral Dragon phantom.
But there were still some escaping auras that flowed into the body of the Emperor Beast along with the fused Spirit Power of both sides.
Although it was only a little bit of aura, a thick aura instantly dissipated in the Star Dou Great Forest, and then disappeared without a trace!
The powers of both sides were still merging, forming a cycle on each other. Su Yu could feel his Spirit Sea being filled by a kind of divine power, but a large amount of Spirit Power in his own Spirit Sea was also flowing away...
In the end, Xuan Lao was also bounced away by this force. Su Yu and the Emperor Beast both fell into an incomparably stable state, but this fusion was not completely successful; perhaps there was a more powerful force preventing it.
Looking at this magical change, Xuan Lao couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, muttering to himself, "I didn't overdo it, did I? This Three-Eyed Golden Lion was struggling desperately just now; could it be that this guidance will cost it its life? That would be troublesome. The Star Dou Beasts won't fight us at Shrek to the death, will they? Ancient books are lethal! How could the reaction be so big?"
The one most worried was Xuan Lao. If he messed up, he reckoned it could directly cost Su Yu his life. If something happened, Mu Lao would skin him alive when he got back.
The fearless Xuan Lao was like a lion turning into a cat in front of Mu Lao, with absolutely no heart to resist.
Wang Dong's brows were tightly furrowed, and golden light flickered in his eyes from time to time. For some reason, looking at the distorted light in front of him, he had a strange feeling, as if something of his own had been taken away. But this feeling was very faint, making him unable to feel it clearly at all.
In the end, this fusion did not reach a perfect state, but when Su Yu saw Wang Dong, whose expression had changed slightly, from that state of fusion, he probably guessed what was stopping him!
It turns out that some things are truly destined. In this era of the Peerless Tang Sect, it was ultimately only opened for him to choose a son-in-law.
But who would know what unknown secrets are hidden behind such a bright and beautiful era?
Just like our childhood, we feel that we are losing some beautiful things. Kindness, gentleness, thoughtfulness—these beautiful essences that belong to us humans seem to be slowly fading away.
Now, even the light that was originally within reach is gradually disappearing...
Although his fusion this time was not completely successful, nine times out of ten, it was that person playing tricks!
This is the second time; this is already the second time. The last Martial Soul Fusion Skill almost caused Su Yu to be countered by the seal in Wang Dong's Spirit Sea, almost making Su Yu vanish into thin air. This time, it was the Fate Power preventing him from fusing with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion!
Su Yu sat quietly in front of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion. Both sides had fallen into an incomparably weak state. When Su Yu and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion stared into each other's eyes, both were slightly stunned, but then they both closed their eyes.
That feeling of fate being connected was truly wonderful. Although it is only an Emperor Beast now, in the future, she will become Qiu Er.
Because both sides had exchanged memories, but Su Yu's memories involved too many secrets and were not fully read; only the memories of the original owner of this body were read.
As for Su Yu's memories, they were also hidden by the Ancestral Dragon phantom, which made Su Yu breathe a sigh of relief...
The Emperor Beast's injuries had healed, but both of their spirits were weak. Xuan Lao had originally planned to trap the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, but gave up after seeing its and Su Yu's weak appearance, because there was no need.
"Su Yu, are you okay?" Wang Dong stepped forward to support the swaying Su Yu.
Su Yu slowly stood up, looking at the Emperor Beast in front of him in a daze. Finally, he sighed deeply. He looked back at the deepest part of the Star Dou Great Forest, where his gaze seemed to converge with the one in the deepest part.
At the same time, the one in the deepest part of the Star Dou Great Forest trembled slightly, and even Di Tian looked at Life Lake in a daze.
"Master, that seems to be..." Di Tian said respectfully to the one in Life Lake.
The Silver Dragon King's voice also came from Life Lake, "Impossible, absolutely impossible..."
"How could a human possibly have..."
…………
Su Yu closed his eyes slightly; he knew that the trouble was big...
"I'm fine, let me rest for a while."
As he spoke, Wang Dong helped Su Yu lean against a tree to recover his drained Spirit Power.
Xuan Lao nodded slightly and said, "It's good that it has an amplifying effect on your Spirit Power. It seems the records in those ancient texts were correct; as long as there are no side effects, there is no problem. It seems I bet correctly this time; the Shrek texts truly didn't deceive this old man."
Truly, the ancients did not deceive me!
Su Yu's Holy Spirit Eye did not evolve into the Fate Eye after losing its vast vitality like Huo Yuhao's did, but it remained the hiding place for Yi Lao, and even Yi Lao himself had become tainted with a trace of Fate Power; more importantly, his Life Eye had also become a Fate Eye.
Since the goal had been achieved, there was no so-called loss; whether it was the Emperor Rui Beast or Su Yu, the Star Dou Great Forest had been thoroughly dragged onto the pirate ship by Su Yu.
Both the Emperor Rui Beast and Su Yu possessed half of the luck of the Star Dou Great Forest; once either side lost the other, it would cause irreparable losses to the Star Dou Great Forest.
If Su Yu were still at Shrek, he would be guaranteed safety for the rest of his life, but if he were not with Shrek in the future, there was a high probability he would be captured by Di Tian for research...
Or even imprisoned within the Star Dou Great Forest, making his descendants become Soul Beasts!
Thinking of this, Su Yu could feel his crisis deepening by another layer, unless...
Unless, I...
…………
Su Yu asked Yi Lao in his Spirit Sea: "Yi Lao, does this Fate Power have any effect on you?"
After thinking for a moment, Electrolux spoke: "I do not belong to this world of yours, but this kind of Fate Power is close to the level I had during my lifetime. With the help of this Fate Power, my divine consciousness has completely stabilized, and in the future, as long as I am given enough time, I will return to my peak."
"This kind of Fate Power is very wondrous. Its true function is actually about the same as what you guessed, but looking at the current fate, your fortune is enough to suppress it. Originally, during the exchange and fusion of power, your memories and its memories should have been completely shared, and I might have even been excluded."
"However..." Having said this, Yi Lao paused, but judging from his tone, he was clearly full of smiles.
Su Yu asked in a daze: "Yi Lao, however what?"
"However, it seems that another power within your body is even more miraculous, hiding a portion of your memories so that it only learned a part of them. Although your fusion this time was not perfect, if there is an opportunity in the future, as long as you try one more time, you will both benefit."
The benefits Electrolux spoke of left Su Yu in a daze; right now, he seemed to have completely plundered the Fate Power from the Emperor Rui Beast, so where would there be any benefits for it?
"Actually, you need not be surprised. The power that exists within you is too miraculous; even I cannot see what level it is. To put it simply, it is like you are a descendant of a god, born with the power of a god. This point is actually similar to that little girl beside you."
When he had performed the Martial Soul Fusion with Wang Dong, Yi Lao had already known that Wang Dong was a girl.
Su Yu was actually not surprised by this; after all, it would be strange if he didn't know.
After adjustments, Chi Wang also brought the Soul Beast that Huo Yuhao needed to this place. Although the age did not reach the monstrous level of 15,000 years, it still had an age of 12,000 years.
Sealing 10,000 years of age, plus another 2,000, was more than enough for Huo Yuhao. After all, in the original story, Huo Yuhao only managed to absorb 5,000 or 6,000 years after his body was strengthened by obtaining the Life Gold.
