Huo Yuhao and Zoey Lucardia stared at each other silently. The former was wary, and the latter was amused.
"My name is Huo Yuhao. Nice to meet you." Huo Yuhao also introduced himself.
Zoey raised her eyebrow and smirked, "I see... You're someone from the Heaven Ascension Descent, not bad. No wonder I can sense Immortal Qi from your body."
"Your current foundation is enough to usurp some Divine Thrones in Tier 6 Dimension, but you still lack finesse if you want to inherit Obsidian Sacred Heritage."
"I will give you 1/100 for now."
Huo Yuhao's mouth twitched. Was all powerhouse in the Omniversal Realm so pretentious?
Zoey shook her head, "I'm not being pretentious."
"..." Huo Yuhao. She can read my mind.
"Yes, I can," Zoey added again. "It's written all over your face."
The atmosphere in the room instantly becomes awkward.
Huo Yuhao cleared his throat, "Ehem, then. Is there any quality I must have to become the inheritor of Heritage? Besides strength, you must also inspect my talent, right?"
"Strength... You're currently better than most younger generations under 50,000 years old." Zoey commented calmly. "As for your talent, I can tell you majored in the Law of Fortune(Luck), Destruction, err Lust, and many other things."
"Honestly, even I'm jealous of your talents. However, this wasn't what Obsidian Sacred Heritage needed."
"What do you mean?" Huo Yuhao tilted his head. He didn't expect Zoey to be this little enthusiastic about his talents.
Zoey sighed helplessly, "What the Obsidian Sacred Heritage needs is someone who majored in Primordial Obsidian, which recorded the beginning of the Mysterious Star Era."
"You focused on too many subjects that would slow your speed in learning Primordial Obsidian."
"What a shame. What a shame."
"This... Can you explain what Primordial Obsidian is first?" Huo Yuhao asked solemnly.
Zoey didn't refuse and explained patiently, "Primordial Obsidian is one of the Mysterious Stars from the Mysterious Star Era. This star was born from the fallen Primordial Lord, containing its inheritance, and we have been studying it ever since."
"The Primordial Lord's Inheritance includes three primordial forces and six laws of the universe. After eons of study, we concluded three powers of the Primordial Lord and called it Three Obsidian Paths."
"Obsidian's Sea, Obsidian's Light, and Obsidian's Blood."
"Each path could help one ascend to Tier 5 Omniversal Being, but none is compatible with you."
Huo Yuhao was speechless, "That's strange..."
"Indeed." Zoey nodded in agreement. "Since you have a chance to trigger my Heritage's inheritance, it means you have the potential to learn and possess them."
"Maybe It's my short-sightedness. After all, I haven't observed you for long enough."
"I thought you would be more condescending." Huo Yuhao was surprised by Zoey's reply.
Hearing this comment, Zoey couldn't help but chuckle. She would look at others with contempt if they acted like Huo Yuhao, but she didn't dare to look down on talents like him.
Huo Yuhao might not be compatible with her Heritage's inheritance. But his talents are so scary that even those Tier 4 Omniversal Beings might not be at the same level as him.
It's not about one in a million or even trillions of people.
It's one in an entire Tier 5 Omniversal Order or even Tier 4 Omniversal Order.
Above all else, Zoey couldn't see through Huo Yuhao. Even though she could faintly read his emotions and thoughts, it was 'quite' limited.
Something about Huo Yuhao's origin set Zoey's heart off and gave her a feeling that she would fall into the abyss if she decided to pry further.
Who knows, the mysterious force behind this terrifying talent might rip her apart.
Zoey couldn't take a chance at all. Her life is too precious to die in such a situation, and Obsidian Sacred Heritage depends on hers.
Zoey bitterly sighed in her heart and said, "Anyway, I'm here just to monitor you."
"I will give you an entry volume of each Obsidian Path. If you can master at least one in a year, you meet the criteria to inherit my Heritage."
"There is such good condition?" Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up. When it comes to learning things, he was confident.
If Zoey knew Huo Yuhao's thoughts, she'd roll her eyes at his confidence. While he's talented, mastering Heritage, which was 'thoroughly' studied for ages, in just a year is nearly impossible.
No, it is impossible. Even if the Obsidian Path is only entry-level.
Zoey shook her slender hand, and the space-time seemed to twist with that simple gesture, sending three books out the ripple to Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao cocked his eyebrow in awe because Zoey's mastery of space-time was much better than his. No, it's superior to the Law or Authority of Space he had.
He could replicate what Zoey had done, but it's not simple. Zoey's control is more sophisticated because she doesn't use external influence like her mind, cultivation, or skills.
The space-time obeyed her willingly!
Huo Yuhao's control is like a tyrant. It's absolute, unmoving.
Zoey's control is like a saint. It comes from the heart and is loved.
Honestly, Huo Yuhao preferred Zoey's control. Not only is controlling space-time less burdensome, but he also can do something else in the meantime.
Huo Yuhao accepted the book and noticed the materials were somewhat strong, containing a mysterious aura. The cover alone is better than some Divine Tool, and the papers are 'actually' made of refined Destiny Beast's hide.
He could knock some Gods in the Douluo Dalu's universe unconscious with this book alone.
He curiously opened one book titled Obsidian's Sea-Introduction Chapter and frowned because the book's content was written with Karmic's power, so not everyone could read it.
Unless you have connections with Obsidian Sacred Heritage, that is.
Zoey crossed her arms and commented, "Don't worry, Yuhao. The power of Karma in the books isn't strong enough to affect your life. It's just to prevent you from spreading it to others."
"Do you have more questions?"
"Um, no, for now." Huo Yuhao replied calmly.
"Good. Then, I will be watching from the void." Zoey smiled and vanished into thin air.
"..." Huo Yuhao.
"So, you're just going to spy on my private affair from the void?"
"..." Zoey dumbly stared at Huo Yuhao from the void.
"Who is interested in your private affair!"
Of course, Huo Yuhao couldn't hear Zoey.
Huo Yuhao helplessly stored the books and heard a knock. He turned around and sensed it was Raikou's presence.
"Come in."
Raikou opened the door and smiled, bringing a tray of milk tea for Huo Yuhao. "Honey, I'm bringing your favorite drink~!"
"My milk... tea!"
Zoey was embarrassed by the way Raikou talked. Have some conscience, woman!
Huo Yuhao coughed awkwardly, "Thanks, Raikou."
Raikou giggled and sat beside Huo Yuhao, sandwiching his arm with her milky goodness. "I heard a woman's voice earlier. Did you have a visitor?"
"Yeah, someone from afar." Huo Yuhao honestly replied.
"Is that so?" Raikou's eyes gleamed slightly.
"I wonder if I can meet her."
"Err, she's busy." Huo Yuhao gave a perfunctory answer.
Raikou pouted, knowing Huo Yuhao was lying this time. Still, she didn't expose him and leaned on his chest, rubbing her finger on her chest. "Ah, that's such a shame..."
'Dumb lower dimensional cow!' Zoey cursed in the void.
At this very moment, Zoey regretted coming here. She could have sent others from the Obsidian Sacred Heritage.
However, Zoey never expected that meeting Huo Yuhao would become a turning point in her life. Not even in her wildest dream!
