Chapter 12: Lottery Draw And A Piece Of Information
On the back of the White Scale Horse, the gentle breeze flowing around him lightly caressed his cheeks, and the unique morning scent of soil invigorated Huo Yuhao’s nearly depleted spiritual power.
The pale facial expression under the Faceless Mask also began to regain some color.
The caravan that had experienced the Evil Soul Master attack obviously accelerated their travel speed; now everyone urgently needed a warm room and a soft big bed to soothe their bodies and minds.
Some people were seriously injured and urgently needed treatment at Xuan Feng City’s medical facilities.
As a result, what was originally a one-day journey was shortened to half a day, expected to arrive at noon.
Huo Yuhao finally had time on horseback to check the gains from killing Second Brother.
“Name: Huo Yuhao”
“Race: Humanity (God?)”
“Soul Power: 15 (Level Nine)”
“Spiritual Power: 950”
“Martial Soul: Spiritual Eye Kaleidoscope”
“Abilities: Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, Kagutsuchi, Kamui, Land of Roots, Amatsuyahishiya, Susanoo.”
“Authority: [Dream]: Life’s unique fantasy (Mastery 2%)
[Understanding]: Control over the desire for the unknown (Mastery 4%)
[Imagination]: Twist of reality (Mastery 1.5%)”
“Lottery Draw: Random manifestation based on imagination (Uses *1)”
“Items: Yilin Concentrated Potion (Douluo special supply), A Piece of Information (to be completed).”
Compared to the last panel, his spiritual power had increased again. Huo Yuhao had actually always felt his spiritual power slowly rising, with no signs of decline yet, probably the result of Martial Soul Evolution.
What surprised him was that the [Understanding] authority had actually reached 4%.
Huo Yuhao, who had wanted to do the Lottery Draw directly, was suddenly attracted by the “A Piece of Information” in the items column.
He retrieved this special item from the panel.
The moment his mind touched the panel, a segment of text directly appeared in Huo Yuhao’s brain.
The text wasn’t long, but its content greatly piqued Huo Yuhao’s interest.
“Bloodline sustains power, genes hide all.”
“Martial Soul is the manifestation of bloodline, inscribed alongside genes into humanity’s evolution spectrum.”
“What is the essence of Martial Soul? These problems seem related to a certain pair of chromosomes………”
“Note: Acquiring more gene information from different humans can unlock subsequent content.”
After reading the information, Huo Yuhao raised his eyebrows and thought to himself:
“Isn’t Douluo Continent a fantasy world? How does it relate to genes?”
“I was an engineer in my previous life, not a biologist; this doesn’t match my expertise.”
“Collecting humanity gene information……… seems possible starting from blood.”
Huo Yuhao rubbed his brow, looked up at the tall city walls faintly visible in the distance, and even from dozens of miles away, he could feel that thick, savage aura.
Taking advantage of the remaining time before entering the city, Huo Yuhao activated his mind and simply used the obtained Lottery Draw use.
Brilliant golden light rippled in front of his retinas. As the light faded, the information of the drawn item appeared before Huo Yuhao.
“Reverse Cursed Technique (Native Modification): Negative times negative equals positive, water and fire, wind and soil, light and darkness, life and destruction, spirit and body.”
Seeing this, Huo Yuhao’s eyes lit up. Just from the ability description, this was definitely a gold card, reversing attributes to gain opposing capabilities.
If he gained the ice element, he could obtain the fire element, and combining them could control the water element………
Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao’s mind stirred, and all information about the Reverse Cursed Technique appeared in his mind.
This ability, or rather incantation, essentially utilized the mutual generation and restraint of elements, enriching them through special incantations and accelerating their cycle to reach the realm of extremes turning into opposites.
At the same time, the principle was differential conversion, with quality unchanged.
For example, reversing Extreme Ice would definitely yield Extreme Fire, but the enrichment and cycling in the conversion would consume some, possibly requiring ten portions of Extreme Ice soul power to convert into one portion of Extreme Fire soul power.
Although the loss was great, it still didn’t hinder this from being an extremely powerful incantation.
Given Huo Yuhao’s current spiritual attribute soul power quality, reversing it could achieve extremely strong physical self-healing and formidable power.
After digesting this incantation, Huo Yuhao suddenly thought that after entering Xuan Feng City, he could set up a small stall to heal and treat people.
Not only could he practice the Reverse Cursed Technique, but he could also collect human blood for gene information; more importantly, he could make money—Huo Yuhao was truly tired of being poor in both lives.
A perfect plan that killed three birds with one stone; he just didn’t know if Douluo Continent had any medical license requirements.
At noon, the sun hung high overhead, its scorching sunlight wantonly licking the parched earth, taking away every bit of moisture.
Cicada-like soul beasts cried loudly on the ancient trees on both sides of Xuan Feng City’s gate, their piercing voices battling the hot weather.
Huo Yuhao’s caravan was neatly lined up on the small path in front of Xuan Feng City, undergoing the guards’ inspection.
It was called an inspection, but it was just a casual flip-through, not a close look. President Xiao and the gate guard general talked, and from their familiar demeanor, the Ding Yi Chamber of Commerce probably traded here often.
“President Xiao, why were so many from your chamber injured this time?”
The gate guard general doubtfully pointed at the caravan.
President Xiao sighed helplessly and said, “General Qin, this time I was lucky to survive.”
“Hundreds of miles from Xuan Feng City, we encountered Evil Soul Masters. If they hadn’t suddenly infought, everyone in our caravan would have died there.”
Hearing President Xiao’s words, General Qin’s gaze sharpened, and he said gravely, “Evil Soul Masters?”
Seeing his expression, President Xiao immediately reacted, “Does General Qin know something?”
General Qin didn’t keep it secret and said directly, “President Xiao, you may not know, but a while ago, people from Shrek Academy came here.”
“They recently destroyed an Evil Soul Master den, but accidentally let quite a few Evil Soul Masters escape.”
“Their escape directions were very scattered. They couldn’t clear them in time and told us to be extra careful.”
Hearing this, President Xiao sighed, “What a disaster out of nowhere!”
General Qin nodded in agreement, then looked at him and said, “President Xiao, after settling down, find time to report at the City Lord’s Mansion.”
He paused and continued, “This is a requirement from the Shrek Inspection Team.”
“You know the Shrek Inspection Team’s temper; we can’t disobey.”
President Xiao cupped his hands toward him and said, “Of course, we definitely won’t forget.”
General Qin nodded and shouted to the gate guards, “What are you standing around for! Let President Xiao’s caravan through.”
As soon as he spoke, the nearby guards immediately stowed their weapons, stood by the city gate, and directed the caravan into the city.
They led the caravan all the way to a large open space on the outskirts of Xuan Feng City.
President Xiao directed the still-mobile chamber personnel to arrange the goods and bring down the wounded.
Then he walked to Lang Shan’s bedside and said, “Leader Lang, I’ve already sent people to contact Xuan Feng City’s medical clinic to ensure the brothers recover.”
“This time, we owe you greatly.”
Lang Shan waved his hand casually and said, “The mercenary group takes money for work; rather, we failed to protect properly.”
Just as the two were talking, Huo Yuhao walked over.
