Since Huo Yuhao became a god, his control over the Kunlun Mirror had become increasingly proficient, and he had initially mastered the core might of this Divine Artifact.
The uncontrollable random Transmigration of the past had long become a thing of the past, and today's spacetime shuttling completely moved according to his will.
This time, because he needed to receive the Legacy of the Goddess of Life, his stay in the Divine Realm Ten Thousand Years ago was longer than any previous time.
However, for him, this was no longer an issue to be concerned about. After achieving Divinity, his life had long been linked with eternity, and the passage of time was merely a measuring scale to him.
Moreover, no matter how long he stayed Ten Thousand Years ago, when he returned to that node Ten Thousand Years later, the time would precisely fall on the exact moment he left.
Therefore, when Huo Yuhao returned to Ten Thousand Years later, it happened to be the time point shortly after the Holy Spirit Cult had been eradicated.
In recent years, the Holy Spirit Cult had been active everywhere on the continent, launching countless terrorist attacks. From border towns to prosperous capitals, the number of victimized ordinary civilians was countless.
That oppressive feeling intertwined with fear and anger had long been deeply engraved in the hearts of every commoner and citizen.
Precisely because of this, when the Federation officially announced the news that the Holy Spirit Cult had been thoroughly wiped out and the high-ranking Evil Soul Masters had all been brought to justice, the entire continent erupted into continuous cheers at almost the same time.
The gloom that had been suppressed for several years was finally dispersed by the sunlight at this moment.
However, right at this moment of universal jubilation, another piece of news began to quietly circulate among the upper echelons of the Federation.
Huo Yuhao's true combat power was no longer a secret.
Killing the Demon Emperor who had stepped into the True God level with the power of one person, this battle record could not be covered up no matter what.
Soon, the news that "the Spirit Pagoda Master has become a god" spread like wings among the upper echelons of the continent.
When everyone in the Spirit Pagoda heard this news, their feelings were quite complex.
Such a momentous event as the Pagoda Master becoming a god, which was enough to go down in history, was actually something they, the people of the Spirit Pagoda, were the last to know.
In recent days, the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters had completely become the liveliest place on the entire continent.
The upper echelon inside the pagoda took turns running to Huo Yuhao's office. Some used the excuse of reporting on work, while others used the pretext of asking for advice, beating around the bush to probe what level of cultivation their Pagoda Master had reached nowadays.
Huo Yuhao was well aware of this and did not get angry. He told the truth to everyone who came: he had already become a god.
Today, he held the position of God King, and on this Douluo Continent Ten Thousand Years later, he could already be called invincible.
Even if Na'er and Gu Yue underwent Body Integration and restored all the strength of the Silver Dragon King's Peak period, they were still far from being his match.
Such a Realm no longer needed to be concealed, nor was there anything to hide.
Thus, the news spread among the upper echelons of the Spirit Pagoda. Within a few days, the entire continent knew that another Divinity had finally emerged on the Douluo Continent after Ten Thousand Years.
After the news spread, the liveliness of Shrek City multiplied several times over.
Powerhouses from major forces rushed over from all directions, gathering at the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters, all wanting to pay respects to Huo Yuhao, the only deity in Ten Thousand Years, without exception.
The purpose of their trip was quite similar: first, to personally confirm whether the Spirit Pagoda Master had truly become a god.
Secondly, and more crucially, they wanted to probe the "secret" of becoming a god from his mouth.
After all, the Divine Realm was lost, and no one had achieved Ascension for Ten Thousand Years. How did Huo Yuhao accomplish it?
If this question wasn't figured out, every powerhouse standing at the Peak yet unable to achieve a Breakthrough for a long time probably wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully.
Huo Yuhao did not put on the airs of a God King toward these visitors; he received them enthusiastically one by one with an easygoing attitude.
When someone requested to witness Divine Might with their own eyes, he cooperatively released a wisp of a deity's aura. That oppressive feeling, vast like a galaxy and deep like an abyss, was enough to make any Titled Douluo convinced from the bottom of their heart.
And when someone beat around the bush to inquire about the method of becoming a god, Huo Yuhao just smiled, casually fobbed them off with a few words, and brushed it past.
After all, in this era Ten Thousand Years later, the Divine Realm was long gone, and even Divine Positions were nowhere to be found. How could he point a way out for them?
To others, this was Huo Yuhao being unwilling to share the secret of becoming a god, but they did not dare to show the slightest anger because of this.
After all, this was human nature, and they did not dare to show the slightest disrespect to a true deity.
Being busy like this for several days, until the visitors from all sides gradually dispersed, Huo Yuhao's office finally regained a moment of tranquility.
He leaned against the back of his chair, picked up his teacup, and enjoyed the rare leisure time.
At this moment, two figures walked in side by side, one after another.
Standing before Huo Yuhao at this moment were two beautiful young girls with distinct styles yet equally eye-catching appearances.
One had dark hair like ink, and the other had silver hair like snow, shimmering with a soft luster under the daylight outside the window.
The two hair colors of black and silver complemented each other, each with its own charm.
Their expressions were also completely different; one had a faint smile hanging on the corners of her mouth, while the other had a wandering gaze and a trace of guilty-looking embarrassment on her face.
The ones appearing here at this moment were naturally Gu Yue and Na'er.
Ever since the incident at Shrek Academy last time, Huo Yuhao had not seen Na'er for several months. Meeting her suddenly at this moment, he couldn't help but tease with a remark: "What? Our Great King Na'er seems a bit shy today?"
Hearing this, Na'er's cheeks instantly turned red as if her mind had been poked at some secret thought. She immediately widened her eyes and shouted at Huo Yuhao: "Who... who is shy?!"
Her anxious and annoyed appearance instead added a bit of cuteness.
Seeing this, Huo Yuhao couldn't help laughing out loud, and Gu Yue on the side also covered her mouth and chuckled softly.
With the two of them laughing like this, Na'er's cheeks blushed all the way to the roots of her ears. She stamped her foot and shouted exasperatedly: "Hey! You two don't go too far!"
Huo Yuhao and Gu Yue laughed for a good while longer before barely holding back their smiles, and the office quieted down again.
Huo Yuhao cleared his throat, looked at the two of them, and softened his tone: "You came over together, is there something you want to find me for?"
Na'er turned her head away, let out a soft hmph, with a look of "I don't want to talk to you".
In the end, Gu Yue spoke up, her tone calm but carrying a sense of solemnity: "You have already become a god now. Shouldn't the matter we agreed upon before start to be resolved?"
Huo Yuhao naturally knew what Gu Yue was referring to. He nodded, his expression serious: "It is indeed time."
However, after saying this, his words changed direction, and his gaze looked at Na'er on the side with a bit of banter. The corners of his mouth hooked up slightly, and he deliberately dragged out his tone: "It's just that I don't know... whether Great King Na'er supports my decision?"
Hearing this, the flush on Na'er's face hadn't completely faded before it burned up again.
She had already learned from Gu Yue that Huo Yuhao had long known the true identities of her and Gu Yue. Therefore, hearing him say the four words "Great King Na'er" at this moment, she naturally knew he was still teasing her about what happened before.
She bit her lip, both angry and helpless. Now that Huo Yuhao was already a God King, even if she wanted to "deal with" him, she didn't have the ability anymore.
What's more, Huo Yuhao was indeed, as Gu Yue said, genuinely willing to help the Soul Beast Clan.
Therefore, Na'er's perspective had quietly undergone a transformation at this moment.
Looking at Huo Yuhao's "smug" appearance, she simply raised her hands and made a gesture of surrender, her tone carrying a bit of resignation: "I beg you, stop talking. I support your decision, alright?"
Seeing this appearance of Eqs, Huo Yuhao couldn't help laughing again, and then put on a serious expression: "Then let's go deal with the matters of Da Ming and Er Ming first."
Saying this, he stood up, walked around the desk, looking like he was about to set off right now.
