Douluo Dragon King: Nine Dragons Break the Abyss

Chapter 16: Meeting of Poseidon Elders

A towering ancient tree rises straight into the clouds, with huge roots deeply rooted in the soil. Each of its branches and leaves is so crystal clear, as if carefully carved rather than naturally formed.

The tremendous life energy it exudes almost condenses into substance, causing the lake water below it to be filled with light green mist full of the breath of life.

A ray of sunlight shines through the lush branches and leaves onto the lake, reflecting a golden glow.

It is more like an island than a place where ancient trees take root.

A figure descended from the sky at an astonishing speed.

After saying goodbye to Qiangu Dieting, Yun Ming rushed back to Shrek Academy as quickly as possible.

The place where he is now is the core of Shrek Academy - Poseidon Island.

Not long after, a green figure appeared in front of Yun Ming.

The person who came had long dark green hair, a delicate and elegant face, and a light green dress that outlined her slender figure.

A faint breath of life emanated from the woman, and if you looked closely, you could see that she also had an imperceptible divinity.

"Brother Ming, you're back."

The woman smiled, like a lotus emerging from water, fresh and refined.

Yun Ming looked at the woman in front of him lovingly, smiled slightly, and had a gentle expression.

This is his wife, the woman he vowed to protect for his entire life, and the kindest person in Douluo Continent, Holy Spirit Douluo Yali.

If the Holy Spirit of the Holy Spirit Church is a gilding of one's own image, then Yali's Holy Spirit is a reflection of her soul.

Her voice was as gentle as her heart and appearance, like a spring breeze:
"There aren't any casualties at the Spirit Pagoda, right?"

There was a hint of worry in his tone.

She knew that Shrek and the Spirit Pagoda were not on good terms now, but she also didn't want any innocent people to die in the disaster.

“I don’t know either.” Yun Ming laughed bitterly, “When I got there, the condensed thunderclouds suddenly dissipated, but I met the one from the Qiangu family in the air.”

That person, of course, is not referring to Qiangu Dongfeng. In Yun Ming's eyes, Qiangu Dongfeng, who only has the cultivation level of a semi-god, is not worthy of his attention.

"Hasn't he been in seclusion for many years?"

Yali naturally knew who that person was referring to. After all, Qiangu Dieting was the biggest obstacle preventing her from being with Yun Ming.

There was a hint of surprise in his tone.

"He probably knows the whole story, but he is not willing to tell me. It seems like he is deliberately hiding something."

After Yun Ming expressed his guess, his tone turned serious.
"Okay, Yali, let's talk about these things later. I have something very important to discuss now and need to convene a meeting of the elders of the Sea God Pavilion."

Hearing Yun Ming's tone, Yali knew that something big must have happened, because she hadn't seen this expression on Yun Ming's face for a long time.

"Okay, I'll go to the outer courtyard to find Cai Yue'er."

After saying that, Yali's figure disappeared from the spot.

Most of the elders of Poseidon Pavilion lived in Poseidon Pavilion. Only Cai Yue'er, who was the dean of Shrek's external school at the time, needed to be specially notified.

Half a quarter of an hour later, in a tree house of the Tree of Life, a meeting of the elders of the Poseidon Pavilion was being held.

There were only a dozen people in the room, sitting on both sides of the conference table, and each of them exuded an extremely terrifying aura.

Yun Ming, who was sitting in the first seat, saw that everyone was present and went straight to the point:

"Everyone, today we are convening a meeting of the elders of the Sea God Pavilion because there are several important matters that need to be discussed."

An old woman with white hair and chicken skin, wearing a thorny hairpin and plain clothes, said in a hoarse voice: "Please tell me, Pavilion Master."

"You're too polite, Mr. Long."

Even though he was the Pavilion Master, Yun Ming still didn't dare to act arrogantly in front of this old woman.

The person who spoke was none other than Yun Ming's late teacher, the wife of the former Seagod Pavilion Master Tianjuan Douluo, the first love of the current War God Temple Master Chen Xinjie, the Light and Dark Douluo with twin martial souls - Long Yeyue.

"The first thing is that the plane's suppression force has weakened." As soon as the words fell, everyone on the field held their breath.

"That's a good thing and a bad thing."

"The suppression power of the Plane Lord has weakened. For Ultimate Douluo like me and Old Long, there is a little more hope of breaking through to the God level."

God-level, these two words seemed to have magical power, attracting everyone's attention.

There was also a bit more brilliance in Long Yeyue's eyes. She was from the same era as Qiangu Dieting, and her cultivation was not as good as Qiangu Dieting.

Even Qiangu Dieting felt that he was entering old age, so was she.

How could I not be happy to hear that I still have hope of making further progress?

“But…” Yun Ming changed the subject, “Everyone, don’t forget that while the Lord of the Planes is suppressing us, he is also suppressing the Abyss.”

abyss……

As soon as these two words came out, everyone couldn't help but tremble all over.

No one will forget the tragic war that took place six thousand years ago. Even if one only knows about it from books, one will feel suffocating despair.

There were 200,000 casualties. The master of the Douluo Hall of that generation of the Tang Sect died in the battle with an emperor of the abyss plane. Four of the Shrek Seven Devils of that generation died. Ten of the eighteen war gods of the God of War Hall died. Three of the four great spirit messengers of the Spirit Tower died, and one of the three chief and deputy tower masters died and one was seriously injured.

If it were to happen again...

"Nothing should have happened to the Blood God Legion."

An old man in a black robe, with white hair and beard but dragon-like eyes said.

Yun Ming nodded: "Nothing really happened, but I'm worried that this is the calm before the storm."

"We can't help it. We are the invaded party, so we have to guard against thieves even if we have to defend ourselves for a thousand days." Long Yeyue said, "As the leader of the Sea God Pavilion, you should stay at Shrek Academy to deter the scoundrels before the situation deteriorates. How about this, I will go to the Blood God Corps and notify other organizations to send some people over. Even if the Abyss invades, we can organize a defense in a short time."

"I'll go too." Yali, who was sitting next to Yun Ming, also said, "If something really happens, my presence can also reduce a lot of casualties."

"Well, that's all we can do."

Although Yun Ming was somewhat worried about Yali leaving Shrek Academy, he knew that he could not persuade Yali, so he might as well choose to support her.

Moreover, with Master Long around, nothing will happen to Yali.

"The next thing is about the Spirit Pagoda."

Spirit Tower?
Many of the elders showed disdain on their faces.

In their opinion, the Spirit Pagoda is an organization only slightly better than the Holy Spirit Church.

It was better ten thousand years ago. At that time, the Spirit Pagoda was only a vassal of Shrek Academy, and the Star Dou Great Forest did not become the private property of the Spirit Pagoda.

The Tang Sect also began to revive with the support of Shrek.

What a glorious era that was!

So what if the Sun-Moon Empire unified the continent?
It was not until the system was changed to the federal parliament that the power was redistributed to the soul master families of the original Douluo Continent.

"Not long ago, the sky above the Spiritual Transmission Tower headquarters suffered a heavenly punishment, and it was the most powerful nine-color thunder tribulation. Qiangu Dieting, who had not been seen on the mainland for decades, happened to appear in this disaster."

"Also, he broke through to the Divine Origin Realm."

This……

Several elders looked at each other in bewilderment. Even if they no longer cared about the Spirit Transmission Tower, they were not the ones who could challenge the quasi-god who had broken through the Divine Origin Realm.

Then, Yun Ming expressed his guess, which was even bolder than what he had said to Yali before:

"I guess that the weakening of the plane suppression this time is closely related to the Spirit Pagoda, but I don't know what they are hiding."

As soon as these words came out, it was shocking.
