Chapter 34 Goal 7
At this moment, within the Sea of Spirit, Tianmeng was still immersed in that fantasy, while Huo Yuhao and Elder Yi were already in shock, unsure of what to say.
After all, in their eyes, Tianmeng's brain circuits were really too strange.
If Tianmeng intended to reserve the unformed second ice-attribute martial soul on Huo Yuhao's body for his beloved soul beast, then both the young man and Elder Yi could understand it, even if the other party possessed a ferocious beast with nearly 400,000 cultivation points.
However, after hearing Tianmeng's story, both of them felt that the person in front of them had some kind of mental problem.
Because in this story, the Ice Emperor, one of the three Heavenly Kings of the Far North, clearly had no feelings for Tianmeng, and may not have even spoken to her more than a few times.
This isn't even just affection; it's an incomprehensible behavior. It seems impossible for such feelings to develop between the two of them.
Of course, if appetite can be considered a kind of emotion, then the two really do have feelings for each other, but these feelings are something that neither the young man nor the old man can understand.
Even so, neither Huo Yuhao nor Elder Yi could understand how Tianmeng had connected the hunting process and the other party's figure with love.
In Huo Yuhao's view, this seemed to be like Stockholm syndrome mentioned in the wasteland, a mental illness in which the victim develops a strange attachment and affection for the abuser.
However, the boy quickly rejected this explanation. After all, if that were the case, then Tianmeng should have developed similar feelings for the ferocious beasts that had imprisoned him in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest for nearly ten thousand years.
However, in reality, Tianmeng did not have this situation. On the contrary, he did not have a good impression of the ferocious beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest.
In this situation, the boy recalled that Tianmeng had been describing how beautiful and powerful Hyotei was, which led him to this speculation.
That could be Tianmeng's feelings for Hyotei, a kind of emotional compensation arising from being imprisoned for so long, an escape from reality.
Meanwhile, Elder Yi, standing to the side, was clearly quite shocked by Tianmeng's behavior.
Then, looking at Tianmeng who was still writhing, the two of them spoke almost simultaneously, "Calm down, this is not love at all."
Upon hearing this, Tianmeng snapped out of his reverie. Facing the two people's skepticism, he proudly declared, "What do you know? This is love!"
"This is bullshit love!" Old Yi rarely swore at this moment.
The boy beside him quickly added, "Brother Tianmeng, something's definitely not right about your feelings. That Hyotei guy doesn't seem to have any feelings for you at all. In fact, in this story, it seems like he just wants to eat you up..."
In response, Tianmeng retorted, "You don't understand. A beating is a sign of affection, and scolding is a sign of love. Don't look at Bingbing like that before. As long as I persuade her to join our god-making plan, Bingbing will definitely understand my good intentions."
Upon hearing this, the young man really wanted to scold the other party, but he also understood that no matter how much he talked to Elder Yi, Tianmeng would not truly realize the problem.
After all, this seemed to have become an obsession for Tianmeng, a spiritual sustenance that enabled him to be imprisoned in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest for so long.
To solve this problem, it might be necessary for the Hyotei to step in, because looking at Tenmu's current state, the boy felt not only confusion but also pity for her.
In short, Huo Yuhao did not intend to continue to dwell on Tianmeng's feelings, but instead made some arrangements for after cultivating his soul power to level 20.
At this moment, the boy said, "So, Brother Tianmeng, are you planning to go to the far north to find that Ice Emperor after my soul power reaches level 20, and have her become my second martial soul?"
Upon hearing this, Tianmeng nodded and said, "That's right. With Bingbing's participation, the success rate of the God-Making Project can be increased by at least 20%."
"Moreover, Bingbing is about to face the next tribulation, and she will probably have a hard time surviving it. As long as we mention our plan to Bingbing later, and with my brother's help, she can retain her own consciousness after becoming a spirit ring, just like I have. She will definitely find it hard to refuse our proposal."
"But Yuhao, now that you know all this in advance, you don't have to be afraid to go there."
Tianmeng was somewhat worried about the boy's question, even though she had seen him promise not to back down.
Huo Yuhao responded, "Don't worry, Brother Tianmeng, I won't stay away because I'm scared."
"On the contrary, I want to go to the far north. I've talked a lot with Brother Tianmeng about soul beasts before, which has given me a new idea, a way to escape my current predicament. So I want to..."
Upon hearing the boy's plan, Tianmeng first widened her eyes, then said with great incomprehension, "Why do I feel like you're even more of a daydreamer than I am?"
"Your plan is simply impossible to implement. Instead of wasting your energy on it, you might as well listen to me and let's bring Bingbing along and continue our god-making plan. That's more realistic."
In response, the boy simply replied, "Brother Tianmeng, I don't think so. Don't you think there's anything in common between these two plans?"
"Apart from both of us going to the far north, they are completely different things," Tianmeng said decisively.
Upon hearing this, he calmly said, "I don't think so. In my opinion, the God-Making Plan and the plan I'm talking about are actually interconnected, because the God-Making Plan is essentially within the scope of this plan."
"Although I have no experience in becoming a god, and I don't know how to become a god, I am clear about one thing: in addition to talent and opportunity, becoming a god requires a lot of resources, and my plan will allow us to integrate those resources."
"Then I believe that after this plan is realized, the difficulties I face in doing what I want to do and becoming a god will be greatly reduced."
Faced with Huo Yuhao's words, Tianmeng neither refuted nor agreed immediately, because he didn't know what to do. After all, the plan the boy had mentioned had exceeded all his expectations.
Meanwhile, Elder Yi, standing to the side, agreed with Huo Yuhao's words, saying, "I agree with what you said, young friend. This line of thinking is correct. Talent and opportunity are important, but you can't get anything entirely by luck."
"Of course I can sense that you have a strong aura of being favored by fate, but that doesn't mean that everything can be solved by luck."
"Most of the time, we still rely on the power we possess and the things we do to continuously accumulate these advantages, and the same goes for resources."
"If we can truly integrate the resources, then based on my past experience, even if you're not a peerless genius, becoming a strong person is definitely not a problem, and the probability of becoming a god in this world should also increase accordingly."
"Of course, I don't know the logic of becoming a god in this world. Although I heard you say that seven people became gods and ascended to the god realm ten thousand years ago, which is different from the world I used to live in, I believe that the process of reaching that realm should be similar, and resources are indispensable."
After hearing what Elder Yi said, the boy nodded in agreement. Of course, he took Elder Yi's words about being favored by fate as a description of good fortune.
In his view, his return to Douluo Continent from the wasteland was indeed due to good fortune, because he himself couldn't explain why.
However, he didn't take this statement to heart. After all, success depends on human effort. The key to achieving the goal lies in prior planning, handling unexpected events during the process, predicting the situation, seizing opportunities, and taking action. Luck is often just a bonus.
At this moment, Zetianmeng fell silent. She couldn't understand why things were going differently from what she had imagined, but she also felt that what the young man and Elder Yi had said was not wrong.
Therefore, Tianmeng's initial opposition to Huo Yuhao's plan has now begun to change.
