Chapter Six: Neither My Name Nor My Surname Will Change—I Am Huo Yuhao!
Thank you to Saitama for four recommendation tickets, to Alien Covenant for two, to Qianshang Yanhang for four, and to mmmp for eight. Now, for the answers to the previous chapter’s questions:
First, the D6 is obtained in The Binding of Isaac by defeating the boss Isaac with the Isaac character, which unlocks the D6 for Isaac.
Second, the spatial ring was worn on a toe, which is why Tianmeng didn’t notice it.
Now, to the main story.
Muyang glanced at the D6 in his hand, then smiled and said, “Although I’ve lost a primary weapon, I’ve gained a rather unique item, and there’s also a mission to complete. In terms of special gains, I suppose I’ve come out ahead.”
“It’s just that hunting for food has become more troublesome—I’ll have to rely on my own blood to tide me over.”
He picked up his scabbard and walked out of the icy cave, heading deeper into the Far North.
Muyang was preparing to complete the task of divine bestowal before officially entering the world of soul masters.
There had to be a divine inheritance within this boundless, frozen land. If he couldn’t obtain one, he’d have no choice but to leave the Far North.
On the pure white snow, a line of footprints stretched forward. One must always press on—there is no new world to be found in regret, only in forging ahead.
After three days venturing into the depths of the Far North, Muyang had already “died” over five hundred times. Through this relentless ordeal, his body was greatly strengthened, even developing toxins—some soul beasts would become unconscious from consuming him, and weaker ones might even die, though such cases were rare.
After his body instinctively absorbed Tianmeng’s oppressive aura, soul beasts under ten thousand years old no longer dared approach him.
“I’ve found it—the ice palace beneath the snow.” Once inside, Muyang finally relaxed completely.
Just the day before, another soul beast had mistaken him for a snow demon. Only after a conversation did Muyang learn that most divine relics weren’t above the snow, but hidden beneath it—sometimes only a small part was exposed, if at all.
This realization had been a torment for Muyang, who spent three days digging beneath every iceberg he encountered.
But the moment he entered, a majestic voice echoed from within the palace.
“Do you accept my inheritance?”
“May I ask, which god are you?” Muyang replied.
The voice seemed faintly displeased by the question but still revealed its identity.
“I am the Snow God.”
Muyang thought to himself: System, what level of god is the Snow God, and can I absorb it?
“The Snow God is a second-level deity.”
“Does the host wish to absorb this deity’s inheritance to complete the mission?”
Muyang answered without hesitation. While a second-level god was indeed powerful in the Douluo Continent, becoming a god meant he could no longer bring any family with him. In the Divine Realm, he would be little more than a mid-level functionary, nearly inconsequential.
Besides, since the system could absorb a second-level god’s inheritance, his own potential would surely surpass that. Accepting this inheritance might not spell doom for his future, but it would subject his every move on the Douluo Continent to constant surveillance.
There was no benefit in that—on the contrary, it would expose the system and put him in danger.
The moment Muyang chose to absorb the inheritance, the vast ice palace began to tremble.
“Human, what have you done? Why is my divine power diminishing?”
Muyang had intended to remain silent, but a bold idea suddenly came to him.
“Nothing much, just used some special means to absorb your inheritance.”
“Human, I will have my revenge!”
“Well, since you insist, I have my own ways of dealing with you. If you dare come down here, know that my name is Huo Yuhao, and I stand by everything I do!”
Then, in a softer voice, he muttered, “Tianmeng, do you think I did the right thing?”
Although Muyang lowered his voice, the Snow God still heard him.
…
Everyone, put your heads together and help the author decide how many years the divine bestowal soul ring from the system should have for Muyang.
