Chapter 31: Blasphemer
three days ago.

The breeze on Poseidon Lake gently stirs the water surface, creating ripples, and brushes across the grass, making the flowers and plants sway. From time to time, young students pass by on the path beside the lake, emitting bursts of laughter.

A student who had studied hard for six years stood on tiptoe and looked towards the center of Poseidon Lake. When he saw the small island and the big golden tree on it, his eyes were filled with uncontrollable desire, but in the end it all turned into a sad sigh.

He reluctantly withdrew his gaze, and when he was about to leave, a strong wind suddenly blew, and the classmates around him exclaimed. Confused, he turned back again, his pupils shrank.

I saw waves surging on the Poseidon Lake, a layer of pale blue light that seemed real and illusory, and the ancient golden tree on the Poseidon Island in the center of the lake was blooming with golden light!
The student's mind was blank at this moment. He looked through all the history articles he had read but could not find any description of this scene.

At this time, figures with powerful souls from Poseidon Island flew up, and their deep voices spread throughout the academy.

"All students return to the dormitory and are not allowed to go out without notice!"

"What...what's going on?"

Some students exclaimed, but the elders of Poseidon Pavilion also wanted to know their questions.

At this time, in the Sea God Pavilion on Sea God Island, the elders came in with serious faces. They looked at the old man at the front of the long table and asked, "Pavilion Master, what happened? Why did such a strange change happen to Sea God Lake and the Ancient Golden Tree?"

The leader of Poseidon Pavilion, the legendary figure of the continent who had lived in the world for four hundred years, Moon was silent. Under the increasingly nervous gazes of the elders around him, he slowly told the story.

"Just now, our ancestor passed down a divine oracle."

"What?! Ancestor! Oracle!"

The elders exclaimed in unison, their faces filled with disbelief. They never expected that these strange changes were caused by the ancestors who had ascended to the divine realm and had no further news since.

Suddenly, the expressions of the elders present changed, and their inner thoughts were as turbulent as the waves on the sea.

Time is enough to bury everything. If the legend of the Seven Gods had not been cut off, the battlefield of the Three Gods War, the ruins of the Spirit Hall were still there and had not disappeared, and the Shrek Academy still existed, I am afraid that the world would only think that they were just a vague legend.

After calming down a little, Yan Shaozhe said in a deep voice: "Teacher, what is written in the oracle?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes were immediately focused on Moon. No matter what, this was the only oracle in ten thousand years, and everyone wanted to know what message it conveyed.

Moon silently took out a parchment scroll. Everyone present could feel the energy fluctuations attached to it, which were much stronger than those of the Extreme Douluo, as well as the heavy feeling like the sea. They immediately understood which ancestor passed down this oracle.

Now they no longer doubted the authenticity of the so-called oracle.

Under the nervous expressions of the elders, Moon opened the scroll. As the first person to see the contents, his pupils paused slightly, and then he placed it in the middle of the long table.

"Just take a look."

Although they were puzzled as to why Moon did not read it out directly, they were also looking forward to this only oracle in ten thousand years. They moved closer, and finally Yan Shaozhe read out: "Go to Douling quickly, eradicate the blasphemer, and destroy the root of the disaster."

After seeing these short sentences, everyone looked at each other and saw the confusion in their colleagues' eyes.

Yan Shaozhe pondered for a long time, but still couldn't figure out what a blasphemous person was. What blasphemous thing had he done to make his ancestors pass down an oracle? And what was the root of the disaster?
There were only fifteen words in the oracle, and there was no description about the blasphemer and the root of the disaster. It only said that it was in the Douling Empire. This made people wonder why it didn't explain it in more detail. Could it be that there was something unspeakable? When everyone was confused, Moon said, "You have all seen the content of the oracle. Xuanzi, you go to the Douling Empire and bring Xiaotao and the other children back."

"What? Elder Mu, let Xuanzi go alone?"

An elder was surprised and puzzled by Moon's arrangement.

"I can't move easily now. You all have your own duties to do in the academy. Shaozhe and Duoduo also need to comfort the frightened students in the inner and outer academies. Currently, only Xuanzi is idle all day long. He is the strongest among you, so he is the most suitable person to go."

"Cough... cough cough cough!" Xuan Zi coughed violently, his face full of embarrassment: "Mr. Mu, what do you mean by idleness? I am clearly inspecting the students' situation every day and giving them some guidance when appropriate."

"But since you are praising me so much, Mr. Mu, let me go."

The other elders did not say anything. After all, Moon's words were too perfect. Currently, only Xuanzi could go to the Douling Empire.

After saying this, Xuan Zi came to the Douling Empire alone without any preparation.

Back to the present, after listening to Master Xuan’s story, Ma Xiaotao’s face was filled with helplessness and confusion.

After all, she had been engaged in a religious dispute within the Douling Empire for some time, and it just so happened that the ancestor of the sea god had passed down an oracle, which inevitably made her think that this was related to what she had done.

"Relax, our Lord Sea God is very generous and won't care about you." Seeing Ma Xiaotao's nervousness, Xuan Zi comforted her.

"But you have been in the Douling Empire recently. Do you have any clues about this blasphemous person and the source of the disaster?"

"The blasphemer... the root of trouble..."

Ma Xiaotao was murmured, and suddenly a beautiful figure flashed through her mind, and her eyes suddenly brightened.

Seeing her like this, Xuanzi was delighted. He didn't expect that he could find some clues just after arriving.

Ma Xiaotao said: "I don't know the source of the disaster, but I have some guesses about this blasphemous person."

Then she told Xuanzi everything that had happened in the Douling Empire recently and the information about the culprit who, in her opinion, was the national teacher and pharmacist.

After listening to this, Xuan Zi was silent, and then slowly said: "The statue of the Sea God was replaced, and a God of Plenty whose origin is unknown was appointed as the chief priest. Not long after, the Xingluo Empire knocked on the gate and slaughtered three cities in a row. If the blasphemer and the root of the disaster are pointing to the same thing, then from your description, he is the most likely person."

"Why don't you look for other clues, Master Xuan? After all, my guess is just a guess." Ma Xiaotao said hesitantly.

"No need. Let's start with this national teacher who appeared out of nowhere. After all, this is the only clue at the moment. What's more, I have a hunch that the person who blasphemed should be him." Old Xuan said firmly.

Don't underestimate the intuition of a strong person. Although this intuition is vague, it often helps.
