Chapter 195 Huo Yuhao: Am I the Chosen One?
Good books and good stories accompany you every day.
"Truly a chosen one!"
It was an old voice, but the tone and manner of the voice clearly did not belong to Moon!
Are there other people here?!
Huo Yuhao suddenly opened his eyes!
Those bright eyes suddenly lit up in the darkness, shimmering with golden light like two bright lamps.
His body tensed instantly, and his mental energy instinctively spread out, surging in all directions like a tide.
Despite his mental energy being restricted here, he still used all his strength to try to pinpoint the source of the sound.
However, his spiritual power was confined within this small ten-square-meter room and could not penetrate out at all.
He was surrounded by deathly silence; apart from himself, he could not sense any sign of life.
At that moment, the aged voice rang out again: "Don't panic, I mean you no harm!"
The voice was gentle and calm, as if it had the power to soothe the soul.
Huo Yuhao lowered his guard, his tense muscles slowly relaxed, and his scattered mental energy gradually returned.
He also asked using his mental power, "Who are you?"
To be precise, I am not a human being.
"You are inside me right now!"
Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, and in a flash of surprise, a hint of astonishment quickly crossed his eyes.
He raised his head and looked around at the golden walls, the flowing patterns, and the intensely rich life force.
His voice held a hint of disbelief: "You are... the Golden Tree?!"
"Hehe!" The aged voice chuckled. "Indeed, I am this golden tree!"
Even after receiving a definite answer, Huo Yuhao was still shocked.
He had never heard of the golden tree having its own consciousness!
It was not mentioned in any of the records passed down through the millennia at Shrek Academy, nor was it written in any ancient book.
Seemingly seeing through Huo Yuhao's thoughts, the Golden Tree continued, "You are the first to know that I have developed consciousness."
Huo Yuhao asked in surprise, his voice rising slightly, "You don't even know about the past Sea God Pavilion Masters?"
In his mind, the Golden Tree and Shrek Academy were one and the same.
It stands at the highest point of Poseidon Island, witnessing the rise and fall of the academy. If such an important entity had developed consciousness, how could it be the first to know about it?
The room was quiet for a moment, and then the Golden Tree's voice came out again.
However, he did not answer the question, but instead asked, "Would you dare come with me somewhere?"
Huo Yuhao hesitated for a moment, his eyes flickered slightly, and he quickly calculated in his mind.
Where to go?
Why take him along?
What exactly is their purpose?
He only nodded when he heard his teacher Electrox's words, "Go without worry," echoing in his mind.
If the teachers say it's okay, then there's no danger.
The golden tree then said, "Do not resist my power!"
Huo Yuhao felt as if he were surrounded by a warm power, a power that was gentle yet profound, like soaking in a hot spring.
Immediately, his consciousness was gently drawn out by an invisible force.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in an unfamiliar space.
The surrounding area was bathed in a dark gold hue, with a rich, almost tangible life force flowing around it.
Standing before him was an elderly man dressed in a light gold robe.
His face was kind, with a deep sense of vicissitude; his beard and hair were all white, and his hair was so long that it reached his heels.
Huo Yuhao knew that the old man in front of him must be the "Golden Tree" who had sent him the telepathic message earlier!
The old man smiled and said to Huo Yuhao, "Child of Destiny, I am the spirit of this Golden Tree. You can also call me Elder Jin."
"Master Jin!" Huo Yuhao's eyes were full of doubt. After thinking for a moment, he finally asked, "Why do you call me the Child of Destiny?"
Jin Lao looked at Huo Yuhao with loving eyes, as if he were looking at a child he had watched grow up.
He slowly spoke: "Because you are the chosen one of Douluo Star, the one favored by the continent's destiny, the one who bears fifty percent of the destiny accumulated by the Douluo Continent over ten thousand years!"
Huo Yuhao's mouth dropped open in shock.
That young face was now filled with disbelief.
His ability to travel between the two worlds is indeed an extraordinary stroke of luck.
He knew even more that even if he was originally on the path of destiny, he would eventually become a god.
Such an opportunity truly deserves the description of "the mainland being blessed by destiny"!
But hearing Mr. Jin say it so confidently, he couldn't help but feel a complex mix of emotions that he couldn't quite explain.
The phrase "chosen one" carries immense weight.
At this moment, he felt excited, fortunate, proud, and also somewhat dazed.
But after a moment, Huo Yuhao calmed down.
On that young face, all emotions receded like the tide, leaving only a calm expression.
In his heart, only a heavy pressure remained, along with even more doubts.
After realizing his extraordinary abilities, Huo Yuhao asked, "Then why did you call me here?"
Jin Lao glanced at Huo Yuhao, then looked away and walked to the right.
"Weren't you curious before about why the successive Sea God Pavilion Masters didn't know of my existence?"
Huo Yuhao followed behind him, listening to his words.
Then he saw Old Jin stop in his tracks, raise his withered finger, and point to the sky.
"Look there."
Huo Yuhao looked in the direction Jin Lao was pointing.
Above this golden space, a blue-gold sphere of light was suspended.
The sphere of light was small, like a sun in this dark golden world.
A golden light flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes. Even though his mental power was suppressed here, his spiritual eyes could still see through many things.
The blue-gold orb seemed out of place in this space, clearly not a product of this place.
The golden life force flowing through this space seems to be constantly being absorbed by that blue-gold sphere of light.
wrong!
Huo Yuhao frowned slightly.
Using the word "absorption" to describe it might not be accurate.
Absorption is passive and natural.
What we are witnessing is clearly a case of forced plunder.
That blue-gold orb of light is now constantly devouring and plundering the life force in this space!
It's like a bottomless pit, greedily and insatiably taking.
Huo Yuhao withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the old man beside him.
His voice was low and solemn: "Mr. Jin, what is that?!"
A hint of seriousness flashed across Jin Lao's face at that moment.
That kind face now held a hint of coldness and helplessness.
He gazed at the blue-gold orb in the sky, his expression complex, and slowly said, "It seems you've also sensed it; she's plundering my life force."
Huo Yuhao's heart skipped a beat.
He looked up again at the blue-gold "sun" in the sky and asked, "What exactly is 'it'?"
