Chapter 402: I Want to Enjoy the Experience Alone
Snow Empress had a deep impression of the one who had "ambushed" her and sealed her within the Sealing God Platform. Though the attacker had concealed their face at the time, she had long since committed their aura to memory.
Huo Yuhao was slightly surprised. Truthfully, the Rank Nine Soul Engineer who had sealed Snow Empress' embryo into the Sealing God Platform had always been a mystery to him.
Under normal circumstances, it made no sense for a Rank Nine Soul Engineer from Sun Moon Empire to suddenly appear in the Extreme North, coincidentally at the exact moment Snow Empress was undergoing metamorphosis, and then just happen to seal her embryo into the Sealing God Platform before giving it to Xu Jiawei, allowing him to use it to stir up chaos.
How could something so coincidental possibly happen?
If one were to entertain a conspiracy theory, it almost seemed as if Snow Empress' fate had been prearranged.
Especially considering how this mysterious Rank Nine Soul Engineer had infiltrated the Extreme North, discovered Snow Empress' metamorphosis, and managed to seal her embryo this wasn't something any ordinary Soul Engineer could pull off.
After all, Snow Empress was the ruler of the Extreme North. Even if she were preparing for metamorphosis, she would have chosen a hidden location. It wasn't as if she would advertise her transformation to the world.
This made the mystery Rank Nine Soul Engineer incredibly suspicious.
"Just now, this person claimed to be a devout follower of the Sea God and even invited me to worship the Sea God too.
This means… the Sealing of Snow Empress' embryo really might be connected to Tang San.
Otherwise, something like Snow Empress' embryo being sealed in the Sealing God Platform would have never happened under normal circumstances.
Wherever **Tang San's influence reaches, trouble follows!"
Huo Yuhao's thoughts raced.
He turned his gaze toward Tang Yun in the distance and said, "I have no interest in worshiping the Sea God. But I am interested in defeating you."
If he could defeat this man, he could let Elder Yi dig into his memories and see if he had any deeper ties to Tang San.
Once they extracted everything from him, Huo Yuhao would have him executed and his soul obliterated, ensuring no loose ends were left behind.
After all, Tang Yun had no trace of Tang San's divine consciousness.
And with Tang San's current power level, he wasn't capable of immediately sensing someone just because they had seen his name in a memory scan.
If he had that kind of omnipotence, Destruction wouldn't have needed to scheme for control of the Divine Realm's Core he could have simply given up and let Tang San take over.
Tang Yun's gaze turned cold.
He was displeased with Huo Yuhao's response.
How could such a great deity like the Sea God be ignored?
To him, the most renowned deity on Douluo Continent was undoubtedly the Sea God.
"You're wearing what appears to be the Humanoid Soul Tool that Mingde Hall has been promoting.
Looks like you have close ties with Mingde Hall.
Your aura may be comparable to a Titled Douluo, but this is ultimately just an illusion.
I suspect this soul tool of yours has the ability to simulate an artificial aura.
Honestly, relying on cheap tricks is a bad habit.
You'll soon realize that no matter what tricks you have, they are meaningless before absolute power.
If you admit your mistake right now and choose to worship the Sea God, I'll let you live.
But if you think the Titan Snow Demon King can help you, you're dreaming.
Unless he self destructs, dragging everyone to hell with him, a critically injured soul beast like him can't even put up a fight against me."
From Tang Yun's perspective, the Humanoid Soul Tool concept had only recently been proposed.
There was no way it could have advanced so rapidly that a Soul Emperor could now possess Titled Douluo level strength just by wearing one.
As a Rank Nine Soul Engineer, he deeply understood how Soul Tool technology worked.
He knew that for any Soul Tool advancement, no matter how talented the researcher was, it would still take time such things couldn't be achieved overnight.
Especially something as complex as Humanoid Soul Tools.
The field was too young, its development time too short, and the technical difficulty too high.
Even if Mingde Hall were focusing all their efforts on it, they wouldn't have been able to create a Humanoid Soul Tool this powerful so soon.
The Titan Snow Demon King sent a worried mental message:
"Huo Yuhao, I don't know what you did to make your aura resemble a real Titled Douluo, but this guy is an actual Titled Douluo and a Rank Nine Soul Engineer.
I got heavily injured earlier because of his Rank Nine Soul Tools!
You should avoid fighting him! I'll carry you and run on the way, I'll try to gather the powerful soul beasts nearby. If we gang up on him, we can kill him!"
The Extreme North had many soul beasts with Ultimate Ice attributes, and any soul beast with Ultimate Ice was capable of fighting above its level.
After all, Ultimate Attributes were incredibly powerful.
Moreover, the endless ice and snow of the Extreme North gave extreme ice soul beasts a massive terrain advantage.
Unlike Star Dou Forest, far fewer human soul masters dared to hunt soul beasts here.
Because of this, the Extreme North had accumulated a large number of powerful soul beasts.
Aside from the Three Heavenly Kings and the Ice Bear King, there were also many Ten Thousand Year Soul Beasts scattered across the region.
While individually weaker, if they attacked together, they could still be overwhelming.
The only issue was they were spread too far apart.
Even if Snow Empress personally summoned them, it would take time for them to gather.
'So… this is justice's version of a gang fight?'
Huo Yuhao mentally ridiculed the idea.
Then, he firmly refused via mental transmission:
"No need, Titan Snow Demon King I want to fight him now."
Truthfully, Huo Yuhao had very little experience using his Ice Extreme Battle Armor in battle.
Now that he had finally encountered a Titled Douluo he could fight seriously, one whom he could kill without consequences, there was no way he was going to share this battle with other soul beasts.
Yes… I want to enjoy the experience alone.
Besides
Even if Tang Yun had some unforeseen trump card, Huo Yuhao still had Elder Yi and the Plane's Will as backup.
There was no reason to hold back.
With this thought, he immediately rushed toward Tang Yun.
His right palm, now pure white, moved slightly.
The next moment
Blizzards swept through the sky.
The heavens grew darker.
The world was suddenly blanketed in snow, which surged toward Tang Yun.
External Soul Bone Ability: Snowy Dance, Frozen Heaven.
Tang Yun instantly activated his Soul Tool Defensive Barrier.
As the snowstorm swept over him, snowflakes adhered to the surface of his barrier.
Just as he was about to launch a counterattack
Huo Yuhao's eyes gleamed coldly
Soul Shock.
His mental power was at a tangible, material level.
Moreover, he had a Spirit Soul Core.
Any ordinary Titled Douluo would be crushed in terms of spiritual force.
Crack!
Tang Yun's mental defense soul tool shattered instantly.
His face drastically changed color.
