Back at the Duke's mansion, Huo Yuhao had already been pondering the Snow Emperor situation.
Should he let the Snow Emperor be captured as in the original story, or should he rescue her when he went to the extreme north in the future, depending on the circumstances?
The only problem now was whether his trip to the extreme north aligned with the Snow Emperor's capture. If they didn't match up, his plan would fail prematurely.
"Old man has always been curious about the power you wield."
Suddenly, a slightly hesitant voice interrupted Huo Yuhao's thoughts.
It was Electrolux.
"Elder Electrolux," Huo Yuhao replied respectfully, instantly condensing a mental body within his Sea of Consciousness.
Electrolux's voice was gentle, "Since entering your Sea of Consciousness, old man has been observing the pillar within you that contains the power of the sun. It's peculiar. Even with old man's level of mental power, I can't fathom its secrets. Furthermore, when I try to touch it, I'm not repelled."
"Can you tell me what exactly this thing is?"
Huo Yuhao naturally wouldn't hide anything from Electrolux, and explained directly, "It's called the Sun God Pillar, and as for its origins, I don't really understand them either."
"Sun God Pillar?" Electrolux pondered over the four words.
"Right, old man, have you seen the four rings of stars surrounding the pillar? Each ring represents a stage. They haven't been awakened by me yet. And the cost of awakening them is to absorb all sorts of special energies. Starting from the third ring, it will require the Power of Faith to awaken them."
"But I can't get the Power of Faith right now. I'll have to think of a way later."
"Interesting." Electrolux became interested. "Although this old man can't fathom the mysteries of this Sun God Pillar, I can see that it seems to carry a certain divine charm. The spherical phantom at the top of the pillar just happens to be aligned with the sun's appearance. Could it be..."
"If it's really as this old man guesses, this divine pillar should be called the Pillar of Faith. It has only one function: to help the user become a god, and you are the one."
"In my world, when top-tier powerhouses take the final step, they will vanish completely, with only a wisp of consciousness remaining. Does your world actually have cases of tangible ascension to godhood?"
"Yes," Huo Yuhao quickly replied. "The world I live in is called Douluo Continent, and it's overseen by a place called the God Realm, which is filled with all sorts of gods."
"Gods... Indeed, our understanding of gods is completely different. The gods of Douluo Continent should refer to more powerful humans," Electrolux's voice was very low, so much so that even Huo Yuhao struggled to hear him. After a few seconds, Electrolux's aged voice grew serious. "Are you willing to take me as your master?"
Huo Yuhao was stunned. He thought Electrolux would be lost in thought, but he didn't expect this bombshell.
To be a disciple?
Isn't this pace too far ahead of the original story?
But...
It would be foolish not to accept.
"I am willing to be your disciple," Huo Yuhao's tone was equally serious. Although he didn't know why Electrolux suddenly offered to take him as a disciple, the answer was obvious.
"Good, very good." Electrolux chuckled within the gray vortex, stroking his beard. "However, the cultivation system I practice is quite different from yours. It may place higher demands on your mental strength in the future. Remember to focus on cultivating your mental power. When the time is right, I will teach you the cultivation system of my world."
"Understood, Teacher," Huo Yuhao addressed him, using the term "Teacher" with practiced ease.
"Take this method for training your mental power." Electrolux presented his welcoming gift for his new disciple: a gray ball of light.
Within his mental sea, Huo Yuhao looked at the gray light ball before him and instinctively reached out to touch it. With a 'whoosh', the light merged into his body.
After fully absorbing the light, Huo Yuhao took a deep breath, his eyes flickering. What Electrolux had given him was not anything else, but a skill for training his mental power.
The skill's name was simple: 'Godly Silk'. It had only one function: to allow the user to split their mental power into threads and then continuously recombine them, primarily focusing on a mental splitting effect.
Oh, no, that's not quite right. Its main purpose is to enable the user to utilize every bit of their mental power to its fullest potential while also strengthening the intensity of their mental power.
"I'm not sure how strong the mental power training methods are in your world, but consider this Godly Silk as your initiation gift. You must study it carefully," Electrolux instructed.
Huo Yuhao nodded heavily. "Don't worry, Teacher. I won't disappoint you."
As he said this, Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered slightly.
A method for training mental power on the Douluo Continent?
This stuff was incredibly rare. The only one that was openly known was the Purple Demon Eyes.
Compared to the flourishing development on the Holy Demon Continent, the Douluo Continent was indeed far behind.
Even the detailed classification of mental power levels wouldn't appear until the era of Legend of the Dragon King.
The mental power levels during the Soul Land II era were chaotic and unclear.
Many soul masters simply relied on the increase of soul rings and soul power levels to enhance their mental power.
"By the way, you need to be careful of that fat worm. It seems to be hiding something," Electrolux reminded him.
Huo Yuhao turned his head and glanced at the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, who was sleeping comfortably. He first sealed off its senses before speaking to Electrolux,
"Teacher, do you know why I asked you to leave a seal in that Three-Eyed Soul Beast's body to defend against spiritual force intrusion?"
Seeing Huo Yuhao change the subject, Electrolux became interested, "Tell me about it."
Huo Yuhao said in a low voice, "Because I can foresee the future."
Electrolux was silent for a moment.
"Brother Tianmeng, or the 'worm' as you call it, is indeed scheming against me, but it is also sincerely considering me. It will bring me a very strong opportunity in the future. You are my teacher, and I don't want to hide anything from you."
"As for that Three-Eyed Soul Beast, she is being targeted by a certain god, which is why I asked you to set up a defense in advance. This god is also my future enemy. I want to prepare in advance to prevent the future."
Huo Yuhao had thought about it long ago. When facing Electrolux, he would use foreseeing the future as an excuse because he knew the plot development, but you need a reason.
"Oh."
Just as Huo Yuhao thought Electrolux might not believe him, Electrolux spoke calmly.
"Oh?"
Huo Yuhao's expression froze. What did that mean?
Electrolux's tone remained calm. "From the moment I saw the Sun God Pillar within your mental sea, I knew you were special. Most importantly, when I broke through space and traveled to the world you inhabit, I felt a peculiar fluctuation. This fluctuation had no physical form, only a consciousness. I could sense its goodwill towards me."
"Your ability to foresee the future is most likely a gift from this consciousness. If I were to use a fitting term to describe it... a Child of Destiny."
"Doesn't that sound rather mystical? Yet, destiny does exist; it's real. It's an extremely profound ability. Every Child of Destiny receives countless opportunities."
"The fact that you possess a pillar capable of achieving godhood is proof of this."
Huo Yuhao opened his mouth, his expression somewhat complicated.
"Thank you, Old Electrolux, for your self-interpretation. It also provides me with a unique explanation."
