Chapter 207 Finally Obtaining the Dragon Pill, Mu En's Astounding Wisdom
Bizarre fragments of memory raced through Kong Tianxu's consciousness.
As a teenager, he awakened the Holy Dragon Martial Soul of Light within his clan, possessing innate full soul power. At the age of eight, he embarked on his legendary path with an unprecedented level of twenty soul power. In his youth, he met Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xishui. In the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament, at the age of eighteen and with an invincible level of sixty-nine, he defeated all rivals and won the championship in one fell swoop, full of vigor and high spirits.
Reigning supreme, indulging in beautiful women and fragrant flowers, his fate began with the unexpected acquisition of the Dragon Pill that changed his destiny. From being cuckolded and battling the Beast God, to his final, earth-shattering duel with the sect leader, Poisonous Beast, the story culminates in the tragic and resolute final chapter of the Dragon God's epic swan song.
The long life of Limit Douluo Dragon God Douluo Mu En unfolded like pages turned by a gust of wind, revealing itself at an extraordinary speed under Kong Tianxu's powerful spiritual perception.
The scene finally settles on a quiet room with dim, yellowish lighting—
The sky outside the window was a somber gray-blue, as if dusk was approaching.
Mu En slowly withdrew his gaze from the window. His voice, which was usually gentle and mellow, now sounded unusually hoarse and weak, no longer calm and composed as before. It was as if each word required a great deal of effort: "Xuanzi, my time is running out."
Xuanzi stood somewhat timidly to the side, his lips moving a few times before he managed to squeeze out a hoarse voice with great difficulty: "Elder Mu—"
Mu En waved his hand and continued, "I watched all of Kong Tianxu's matches. His talent and lineage are unparalleled in history."
Even the ancestors of the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils, in terms of martial soul and cultivation talent alone, were probably inferior to him in many ways. Silver Dragon Martial Soul, Full-Body Body Martial Soul —”
"I originally thought that with Yuhao in Shrek Academy, time was on our side. But now it seems that both Yuhao and Xiaotao will be completely suppressed at the level of martial souls."
Moon shook his head bitterly. A deathly silence fell over the room, so heavy it was suffocating.
Even Elder Mu has lost all confidence?
Xuanzi's breathing became heavy. He couldn't help but think that Elder Mu's previous confidence was probably—
"But we still have a chance."
Mu En slowly raised his withered hand. In his palm, a bead as white as jade, with a golden dragon shadow seemingly swimming inside, quietly appeared, radiating an incomparably pure dragon aura.
"The Silver Dragon Martial Soul, even though it is the top-tier bloodline at the very top of the Dragon Clan's pyramid, is on the same level as the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian."
However, as long as one is a dragon, one will inevitably be suppressed by a higher-level bloodline.
Xuanzi's pupils suddenly contracted. Even though he possessed some of the Taotie bloodline, he felt an unprecedented attraction when he saw the bead.
"Xuanzi, I originally intended to leave this dragon pill to Yuhao." Mu En stroked the dragon pill that he had nurtured for a full hundred years. "That child is blessed with great fortune and countless opportunities. He may very well surpass Kong Tianxu in the future."
"However, if things truly come to a point where nothing can be done..."
Mu En raised his eyes and looked at Xuan Zi with unusual sharpness: "You shall take this Dragon Pill."
Xuanzi trembled violently.
"With the Dragon Pill's assistance, advancing to the Limit Douluo level shouldn't be a problem. The Taotie bloodline within you will also be further stimulated, and there's a slight possibility that your Taotie Divine Ox Martial Soul might revert to its ancestral form and evolve into a true Taotie. At least, being in a semi-awakened state, you still have a good chance."
Moon spoke slowly, but his words struck Xuanzi's heart like a heavy hammer, making his head buzz and almost unable to think.
"Among the nine sons of the Dragon God, Taotie is one of them. With the suppression of this supreme bloodline originating from the Dragon God's source, combined with the power of the Golden Tree, he cannot possibly be your match. Furthermore, the academy has been steadily expanding its branches and leaves for ten thousand years, becoming a sacred place in the hearts of soul masters across the continent. Presumably, even the Sun Moon Empire would not risk the world's wrath by directly attacking the academy. With these two safeguards in place, Shrek Academy should be able to survive without worry."
He slowly handed the Dragon Pill to Xuanzi.
"Keep it safe. Seal it away and store it in the Bright Pavilion at the end of the first passage on the right."
Xuanzi knelt down, trembling, and reached out his hands to receive the dragon pill that seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. His vision was instantly blurred by the torrent of hot tears streaming down his face. He choked up, barely able to utter a complete sound, and could only try his best to lower his head and kowtow heavily.
Inside the Soul of the Golden Tree lies the Dark Void.
The phantom of Moon's soul was becoming increasingly thin and almost transparent, with tiny specks of light constantly dissipating and disappearing from its edges.
Clearly, under Kong Tianxu's brutal search of his memories, his spiritual essence was excessively consumed and was on the verge of complete collapse.
The Holy Spirit Puppet Martial Soul continuously transmitted a clear and intense will: Devour! Completely devour this pure and powerful Limit Douluo soul and transform it into nourishment for its own growth!
Kong Tianxu could clearly sense that if he followed this thought and relied on the soul nourishment of this Limit Douluo, his cultivation level could probably instantly leap several levels and directly reach the Title Douluo realm.
However, this method of cultivation for evil spirit masters is acceptable as a supplement, but if it is used as a means to break through bottlenecks, then subsequent improvement will become extremely difficult.
Just look at Ye Xishui's situation. As the one with the highest martial soul talent among the three Limit Douluo, her cultivation level is the lowest. She even failed to make any progress for many years after breaking through to Limit Douluo.
This is also why evil soul masters cultivate extremely quickly in the early stages, yet titled Douluo and Super Douluo are so rare.
Having considered this, Kong Tianxu merely had a slight thought before forcibly suppressing the instinctive desire of the Holy Spirit Puppet.
With a wave of his hand, he gently dispersed the already thin and fragile soul imprint of Mu En, transforming it into the purest particles of light energy, which returned to the primordial void of this golden tree, becoming six large, golden characters.
Withdrawing his extended spiritual tendrils, Kong Tianxu's consciousness returned to the Wutong Pavilion where his physical body resided. Sitting cross-legged, his eyes remained closed, but his spiritual energy was continuously gathering at a mysterious rhythm.
At this moment, a wondrous change was taking place within his spiritual sea. The vast and boundless purple-gold spiritual ocean surged with waves, each surge causing a brief pause in the air, as if breathing. Above the surface, one bi-colored vortex after another appeared, devouring and spewing forth pure spiritual energy.
Above the Sea of Spirit, a high-hanging silver sphere of light radiates a soft and steady glow. It is not perfectly round, but rather resembles a giant egg that nurtures life. The light flickers with a certain rhythm, exuding an incomparably rich life force.
Just as Kong Tianxu's consciousness returned to his body, the egg-shaped ball of light floating above the sea of consciousness quietly shattered, and a ray of light unfolded within it.
"Thump, thump, thump!"
A clear and powerful heartbeat resounded for the first time in this pure spiritual world. The figure in the air slowly descended, eventually drifting into the purple-gold spiritual sea.
"The method of oviparous transformation is truly miraculous."
Born from the egg of light, it was none other than Kong Tianxu. However, this being, formed entirely from highly condensed spiritual energy, was only about a foot tall, yet lifelike, like a miniature version of a real person. Its entire body possessed a restrained, brilliant silver color, as if carved from the purest mithril, while a layer of noble white-gold aura surrounded its body.
The Oviparous Incarnation Technique and the Spiritual Avatar are secret techniques from Zhongli Yuan's memories, and they are perfectly suited to the current situation.
Perhaps only this demigod, who loves research, knows this unique way of using spiritual power that belongs to the soul beast race.
The silver figure hovered above the sea of consciousness. With a slight close of its eyes, the details of the path and location that it had just retrieved from Moon's memory clearly emerged.
With a slight flicker, he transformed into an almost imperceptible stream of light, drifting out from between Kong Tianxu's eyebrows and arriving before the thick golden wood walls of the treehouse outside.
Then, he stretched out his small palm and pressed it against the thick golden wood wall of the secret chamber.
The next moment, his figure passed through without any hindrance, like an illusory ghost!
The first secret room, the second secret room —
Kong Tianxu's tangible and substantial spiritual avatar now resembled an intangible and formless ghost, freely traversing the powerful underground chambers of the Sea God Pavilion. The golden tree's physical wood, containing immense energy and capable of blocking most spiritual detection and physical impacts, seemed to nonexistent to him at this moment.
While he could penetrate matter with tangible spiritual power, it would be impossible for him to so easily penetrate such a thick and energy-rich barrier. Kong Tianxu had also cleverly integrated the subtle control over space inherent in his Silver Dragon Martial Soul talent into the actions of his spiritual avatar.
As he sped toward the Pavilion of Light marked in his memory, he continued to piece together more memories he had gleaned from the fragments of Moon's soul. More details connected, forming a complete picture that clearly emerged.
"Why are you crying, Xuanzi?" Looking at Xuanzi kneeling on the ground and crying, Mu En's voice was tinged with helplessness, but even more gentle.
Xuanzi choked back tears as he said, "Elder Mu, even you have to consider the situation after defeat. I can't imagine what our Douluo Continent will become."
"Hehe, what I just said was simply to ensure the academy's survival and avoid the worst-case scenario."
A faint yet stubborn light gradually ignited in the depths of Moon's cloudy eyes.
"The situation is not yet out of control. In my lifetime, I will still do some efforts."
Xuanzi's eyes lit up again. What extraordinary wisdom did Elder Mu possess? Could it be that he already had a brilliant plan to turn the tide?
Mu En calmly said, "Xuanzi, tell the people at the Sun Moon Empire's Royal Soul Master Academy that exchange learning is possible. However, Kong Tianxu must be among the exchange students. We can promise to open the Golden Tree to him for him to study once."
-
"Elder Mu, what are you doing?" Xuanzi was immediately puzzled. "He has already shown such a threat, why do we still want to bring him to the academy? Isn't this aiding the enemy?"
The silver figure moved silently through the depths of the Sea God Pavilion like a true ghost. It even passed through a secret chamber where an inner court student was deeply meditating, his soul power surging around him, completely unaware of the outside world.
This is the infinite wonder of combining tangible spiritual power with the unity of heaven and man; he seems to have become one with the environment. As long as he is not seen, not physically touched, or the other party's spiritual realm has not reached the same or even higher level, his existence is untraceable.
Finally, Kong Tianxu arrived at the last door. It looked ordinary, but inside it emanated a dense, almost liquefied, pure light element that was nearly suffocating.
Oh well, he's not breathing right now.
Without the slightest hesitation, the silver figure slipped inside.
Before them was a room furnished remarkably similar to the Wutong Pavilion, except it lacked carpeting. Countless, even thicker tree roots, seemingly cast in gold, cascaded from the dome, intertwining to form a natural, sacred altar-like structure. Pure, luminous energy flowed gently within, as if imbued with life.
Kong Tianxu's gaze instantly locked onto the center of the countless hanging roots, where an ancient wooden box floated silently.
The silver figure leaped forward, not directly touching the wooden box. His small hands, with a specific rhythm and force, gently patted the surrounding golden tree roots several times. With his movements, the light flowing over the roots rippled slightly, and some invisible restriction quietly dissipated.
Then, he carefully opened the wooden box.
As a spiritual entity, it can penetrate physical objects and has the ability to interact with the material world in a real way; this is what makes it so terrifying to have both tangible and material form.
As the wooden box slowly opened, a warm, pure white light, imbued with boundless majesty, appeared before Kong Tianxu's eyes.
Having left his hometown and traveled thousands of miles, he finally reached the ultimate goal of his journey.
The Dragon Pill is the culmination of the Holy Dragon's life's essence!
With a swift movement, the pure white, jade-like bead obediently fell into the hand of the silver figure. Its smooth texture and the powerful, pure aura of the dragon's origin and the force of light washed over it, bringing a sense of comfort to this spiritual avatar.
But he did not leave immediately. Instead, he slightly moved his fingers, and as the air distorted, a pure white dragon pill that looked exactly the same appeared out of thin air.
After returning the second dragon pill to the wooden box and restoring everything to its original state, the silver figure nodded in satisfaction.
He could already imagine the wonderful expression on Xuanzi's face when, in the future, he not only failed to get a response from Mu En's soul, but also discovered that the dragon pill he had placed his hopes on had disappeared.
However, at that very moment, an extremely subtle yet undeniable sense of unease emerged, growing gradually.
wrong.
He frowned, a non-existent brow. Without hesitation, his spiritual avatar returned at an even faster speed than it had arrived, its spiritual connection pushed to its limit and linking with his physical body.
Previously, during the process of browsing Moon's memories, due to the soul-to-soul struggle and rapid retrieval, some deeper and more hidden fragments of memory were not immediately and fully deciphered. Now, with his full effort to digest them, Moon's final memories flooded in completely—
Mu En slightly raised his hand, stopping Xuanzi from speaking, and the smile on his face became somewhat inscrutable: "Xuanzi, there's no need to be so pessimistic. A threat can perhaps be turned into an opportunity."
"He may not be our enemy. Although Xiao Tao has now advanced to the Ultimate Flame level, her mind is being corrupted by the evil flames. To completely purify the evil flames, she must use the Yin-Yang exchange method with the owner of either the Ultimate Ice or Ultimate Flame martial soul to truly release the evil flames. Alternatively, she can consume rare and precious materials at the Ultimate Flame level to completely purify them. The latter is extremely rare, but the former—"
As Moon spoke, the smile on his face became even more enigmatic.
Xuanzi was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Elder Mu, you mean...?"
"In the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament, Kong Tianxu's Silver Dragon Martial Soul has already demonstrated his mastery of the ultimate ice. If we add the condition of comprehending the Golden Tree to our exchange and learning requirements for the Sun Moon Empire Royal Soul Guidance Academy, coupled with the prestige of our world's number one academy, he will surely come."
Moon paused for a moment, seemingly considering his words.
"Xuanzi, I don't know if you noticed, but during his match with Xiaotao, their relationship seemed quite close. What if we add fuel to the fire? I've read through the history of the continent, and love affairs between men and women are the most difficult to judge. Xiaotao is someone we've watched grow up, and I believe in her loyalty to the academy. If we add this layer of relationship, Kong Tianxu will probably not openly attack the academy in the future, and it's even possible that he might actually join Shrek Academy."
"We just need to wait until he comprehends the Golden Tree—"
Inside the Wutong Pavilion.
Kong Tianxu, who was sitting cross-legged on a dark red futon, suddenly opened his eyes.
Almost at the same instant he opened his eyes—
A hot, naked body, carrying a strange fragrance that seemed to ignite the soul, suddenly pounced on him from behind, completely enveloping him!
