Huo Yuhao vs Mu En (1)
🕑 Added 2023-12-10 10:17:29 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 238 ---
"H-He challenged the Pavillion Master..." Yan Shaozhe was speechless.
"This rascal is ridiculous!"
Even though Yan Shaozhe wanted to stop this futile spar, he couldn't because Mu En had accepted the invitation.
"Junior Brother." Even Bei Bei has a complicated expression on his face.
Not many people in the new generation know, but Mu En is 'widely' acknowledged as one of the strongest people on the Douluo Continent. He's also one of the Twin Holy Dragons with the title Dragon God Douluo!
Unfortunately, Mu En was injured due to some conflicts in the past and dropped from level 99 to level 97. It was so bad he couldn't move without using his immense spiritual power.
Mu En hovered onto the field and stared at Huo Yuhao amusingly. He could tell how hot-blooded this blue-haired young man was.
"So, how do you want to exchange moves with me?" He asked calmly.
Huo Yuhao smiled, "Before that, let's change the area and heal your wounds."
"I don't want to destroy this place-!"
"Stop bragging, Yuhao! Do you really think you stand a chance against the Pavilion Master?" Before Huo Yuhao could finish his words, Yan Shaozhe shouted at him. His annoyance is crystal clear from the tone alone.
Huo Yuhao glanced at Yan Shaozhe and shrugged, "Who knows? I've never tried."
He has fought Gods, Devils, Monsters, and even Buddha in the Draconic Deus Universe and Everlith Universe. However, he also wanted to see how they compare to the peak mortal's strength in the Douluo Dalu Universe.
Strictly speaking, Douluo Dalu Universe's power system allowed someone to fight Gods despite being in the lower cultivation realm because they have extremely firm and stable Universal Laws here.
Huo Yuhao realized this after awakening the Ancestral Eyes of Heavenly Dao, prying the secret of the universe. If not, he wouldn't do this small experiment.
But one might wonder, why didn't he fight Title Douluo from the Dragon Nest instead?
The reason is Dragon Nest has used a completely different standard than Spirit Master in the Douluo Continent, which is still somewhat old-fashioned.
And who's more old-fashioned than Mu En?
He has touched the realm of Demi-God, following steps referenced from his ancestors.
Huo Yuhao snapped his finger, and the surrounding space suddenly warped, shocking everyone.
"What happened?" Mu En's eyes shone as he observed the surrounding area. "The space... No, the dimension is parallel like a mirror to the real world."
"And this is not a domain, am I right?"
Huo Yuhao nodded, "Yes. It's just the profound application of space-altering Rune. We called it the Mirror Dimension."
"Anything we do here won't affect the real world, but there is a catch. It only lasts for an hour or so."
"Mirror Dimension, huh? How fascinating. Dragon Nest's deeper than I thought." Mu En sighed in awe.
Yan Shaozhe's mouth twitched, "I don't know Dragon Nest has this kind of power..."
Ma Xiaotao blinked and didn't say much about this because she had gotten inside the Mirror Dimension countless times when Yang Xin(Scathach) dragged them to her hellish training.
As for Bei Bei, he was too stunned to speak.
They didn't know not everyone in the Dragon Nest could cast the Mirror Dimension. Huo Yuhao said it was only an hour or so because he was confident Mu En could entertain him within that period.
Yes, Huo Yuhao hoped Mu En didn't disappoint him.
'There is a limit my clone could unleash, but it should be fine.' Huo Yuhao thought to himself.
He grabbed something from his inventory. It was a green bean filled with mysterious power.
[Name: Ten-Folds Senzu Bean]
[Effect: Upon Consumption, completely heal any physical and spiritual injuries from one's body and mind, even if it was life-threatening injuries]
Huo Yuhao felt he was generous to give Mu En this treasure, even though he knew this was just one of many overpowered consumables he had in the inventory. He has experimented a lot with his resources, after all.
"Elder Mu En, catch this." Huo Yuhao tossed the Ten-Fold Senzu Bean away.
Mu En raised his brows slightly because he was observing the Mirror Dimension. He used his mental strength to form a hand and caught the green bean.
"What's this?" He asked with great interest. He could feel that this green bean was extraordinary.
Huo Yuhao smirked, "Dragon Nest's specialty. It could heal any injuries on or in one's body."
"With it, you'll return to your peak."
"You might regain your youth too."
"Aih, are you scamming me?" Mu En couldn't help but chuckle.
"Just eat it and see." Huo Yuhao returned casually.
Mu En stared at the green bean and decided to trust Huo Yuhao by opening his mouth. He couldn't taste anything besides blandness upon eating the bean, surprisingly.
However, his dim yellow eyes widened in shock abruptly.
BOOOOOOOOOM!!
The ground and air shook violently as Mu En stood up on the ground without using his mental power. His wrinkle disappeared, and his crooked back straightened.
Mu En's long white hair and beard from old age started becoming black again, gaining their lustrous gleam. His yellow eyes brightened into that of a pure light gold.
His spirit energy also soared, causing a shockwave twice, indicating his return from level 97 to level 99.
"Haha... How insane." Said Mu En, who now looks like a middle-aged man instead. His body emitted immense vitality that even youth didn't have.
He looks more like Bei Bei's uncle rather than his great-grandfather.
"..." Yan Shaozhe.
"..." Ma Xiaotao.
"No way..." Although Bei Bei has seen Mu En's past appearance in some pictures, seeing it himself is different.
"Just who are you, Huo Yuhao?" Mu En stared at Huo Yuhao solemnly. He has underestimated this youth.
In the past, he thought Huo Yuhao had a 'great' position in the Dragon Nest because of the preferential treatment people from the other side demanded from Shrek Academy.
'I'm too naive. Huo Yuhao must be much more important than that.' Mu En gazed at Huo Yuhao's calm blue eyes.
Huo Yuhao rubbed his chin, "You didn't return to your appearance in the mid-twenty. That's surprising."
"Oh, and to answer your question. The leader of Dragon Nest is my master." He continued like it was 'normal' information.
Of course, it was a lie.
But his lie is too good.
Mu En was taken aback, "I see... No wonder."
"Is this spar perhaps his instruction?"
Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes because this old fellow overthought his words, but since the matter had come this far. He might as well lie again.
With his thick skin, Huo Yuhao nodded and answered, "Yes, yes, my master wants to test me."
"Then, I have to take this spar seriously..." Mu En clenched his hand and felt the power he once lost.
"Haha, that would be my pleasure." Huo Yuhao laughed as he stood firmly on the ground.
Everyone was nervous except Huo Yuhao and Mu En as they stared into each other's eyes, trying to find a flaw.
Surprisingly, Mu En couldn't find any.
"What suspense." Bei Bei didn't dare to close his eyes. The spar might now last long, but he wished to observe everything. It should help him a lot.
Yan Shaozhe bit his sleeve and mumbled about Huo Yuhao being an annoying rascal.
'Yuhao, you must win!' Ma Xiaotao fiercely stared at the blue-haired young man.
"Let's start." Mu En said calmly.
Huo Yuhao nodded, "Come, Elder."
Mu En comfortably stretched his arm like the elder he was and punched the air, producing a fierce shockwave. And it's not an ordinary shockwave because Mu En enhanced it with his mental power.
In a way, it's like infusing Conqueror's Haki into his attack.
Of course, Huo Yuhao knew what Mu En used.
It's the Sovereign's Descent or Absolute Dominance! This technique incorporates physical attacks and spiritual attacks.
Huo Yuhao stared at the incoming attack and pinched his thumb and index finger, condensing his Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki into one point.
"External Destruction." He said while snapping his fingers.
Blacklight traveled through the air and tore Mu En's shockwave, creating a suffocating feeling.
"Dear God..." Mu En stared in disbelief. "He's a monster."
BOOOM!
An eruption of dust happened, covering the whole ground.
When the dust was 'gradually' cleared, everyone could see Mu En standing with blood coming off his left palm. The palm he used to fend off the attack Huo Yuhao sent.
"What was that technique?" Mu En asked after looking at his bleeding palm. He used the Light Holy Dragon's essence to heal it but found Huo Yuhao's will was still lingering on the wound.
Huo Yuhao blew the dust away and answered, "Haki."
"One of Dragon Nest's Core Techniques."
