Douluo: Legend of the Dragon King - The Voice of the Purple Emperor

Chapter 62: Tower Murals

Like the headquarters of the Celestial Spirit Tower, the base of this Spirit Transmission Tower is octagonal and occupies a vast area. Every five floors upwards, it narrows inwards until the top.

The journey was still quite long, and the group of Gu You first arrived at the central square of Tianhai City.

The Central Plaza is located in the heart of Tianhai City, surrounded by two residential communities that face each other and are connected. The Central Plaza is the central area connecting the two communities. The surrounding area is extremely prosperous, with various small shops and barbecue stalls. Buying any piece of land here would cost a huge sum of money. Not to mention its proximity to Donghai Academy, making it a prime school district, this forces some people to buy a house here, even if it means going bankrupt. As long as Donghai City continues to develop, housing prices will continue to rise, and when they resell, no one knows how much profit they will make.

Wu Changkong called for two Soul Guide taxis, because there were quite a few people and one car was not enough.

Gu You, Gu Yue, Tang Wulin, and Xie Xie were crammed into a car. Just then, Xie Xie said with a suspicious smile, "Gu You, you said you and Gu Yue both have the surname Gu, are you from the same family?"

Gu Yue clenched her fists together. "Xie Xie! Haven't beaten you up in a few days, are you itching for a beating?"

"Sister! I won't say it again, I really won't dare to do it again." Xie Xie covered his scalp to prevent Gu Yue from suddenly attacking him.

Gu You just smiled, which really fits the character of the main characters in the early stages. The reason he dislikes Tang Wulin may really be because of that bit of naivety. It may not be obvious now, and he may even like him a little, but it will gradually show later.

Looking back on everything, the Douluo plane was eroded by the Abyss plane, the plane's master was Tang Hao, and the future Tree of Life was Ah Yin. There are countless events to recount, and this Chief of Staff Tang is truly selfless!

The classic, long-term plan is being staged once again.

It might not seem to have much impact on Gu You now, but he cannot escape the symbiotic dragon god inheritance within him. He can only become stronger and stronger, strong enough to change everything. Knowing the changes in the future, Gu You's thirst for power has become even stronger.

After all, who wants to be controlled by Tang Shenwang? He's truly ruthless; a single sentence like "You have a way to die" would set the heavens ablaze.

We've arrived! Get off the bus.

The college had clearly made arrangements in advance; when they walked up the steps to the gate, the Dean of Students, Long Hengxu, was already waiting there.

Upon seeing Wu Changkong arrive with them, Long Hengxu quickly stepped forward to greet them, "Teacher Wu."

"Director Long." Wu Changkong greeted him simply, his face still expressionless.

Long Hengxu looked at the extra student, Gu You, and felt much calmer. "Come with me."

Upon entering the first floor of the Spirit Transmission Tower, one is immediately struck by its magnificent interior. Several stone pillars support the tower's roof, which is over ten meters high. Even more impressive are the stone pillars and the exquisite colorful murals on the dome.

These murals are resplendent in gold, depicting landscapes and figures, seemingly recording a story.

Wu Changkong said, "The murals record the story of how the first Spirit Pagoda Master, the legendary Soul Master and inventor of Soul Spirits, Spirit Ice Douluo, led human Soul Masters to fight against the Soul Beast Tide. These murals are only a part of the story. The murals from the eighteen branch towers of the Spirit Pagoda can tell the complete story. The murals at the Spirit Pagoda headquarters depict the scene of Spirit Ice Douluo's battle against the strongest Soul Beast, Beast God Di Tian. It was after that battle that Spirit Ice Douluo disappeared and never appeared again. However, according to legend, Spirit Ice Douluo was the ultimate victor, because after that, Beast God Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian also never appeared again."

Although he was only listening to Wu Changkong's narration, Tang Wulin still felt dazzled. He could clearly feel the magnificent and vast scene depicted on the mural, the terrifying aura of the enormous soul beasts amidst the beast tide, and in front of them stood a huge city.

I only paused briefly during my visit to the ancient site and didn't look at it much.

Above the city, a figure hovered, his eyes exceptionally bright. Around him floated several other figures: a stunning woman in white, a woman in green, a flower-like object on his shoulder, a giant bear, and a huge white insect. Surrounded by these figures, the young man was surrounded by strangely radiant soul rings.

This is the Spirit Ice Douluo!

When he was very young, Tang Wulin had heard his legend, Huo Yuhao, the Spirit Ice Douluo. There was also a legend that he was originally the son of the White Tiger Duke of the Star Luo Empire, so he should actually be called Dai Yuhao.

He was a prodigy from ten thousand years ago, starting as an ordinary boy, joining the legendary Shrek Academy, and gradually becoming a top powerhouse, renowned throughout the continent. According to legend, he most likely broke through the limits of humanity, traveled to the realm of gods, and ultimately became a god.

Because after he disappeared, his wife also disappeared.

Tang Wulin's gaze naturally drifted to the side of Lingbing Douluo in the mural, and he immediately noticed another radiant figure.

A pair of enormous butterfly wings spread out behind them, radiating a strong and dazzling light. Their exquisite faces were right beside Lingbing Douluo. Even though you had other companions around, everyone's gaze was unconsciously drawn to the two of them.

"Dragon Butterfly Douluo Tang Wutong, wife of Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao. Wu Lin, look, Spirit Ice Douluo's wife is so beautiful! It is said that she is also extremely powerful, and she and Spirit Ice Douluo have a powerful martial soul fusion skill that can merge into one and become an extremely powerful existence. In that era, she was the most powerful." Xie Xie looked at the mural with admiration.

"Tang Wutong, that's quite similar to Wu Lin's name," Gu Yue said with a hint of peculiarity. "And have you noticed that Wu Lin seems to look a bit like that Tang Wutong? Especially her eyes."

Xie Xie said, "It doesn't look like it, does it? The Dragon Butterfly Douluo's eyes and hair are pinkish-blue, while Wu Lin's are all black. How are they similar?"

Listening to their conversation, Tang Wulin himself felt a strange sensation. Looking at Dragon Butterfly Douluo Tang Wulin, he felt a genuine sense of closeness.

He shook his head self-deprecatingly. Compared to Dragon Butterfly Douluo, what was he? He probably only felt this way because their names were similar.

Upon seeing this, Gu You grinned coldly, saying, "It's not just similar, it's exactly the same."

"Alright, let's go." Long Hengxu's voice woke the six students. He smiled and said, "When I first came to the Eighteen Heavenly Pillars, I had the same curiosity as you. But after coming here many times, that feeling has faded. However, the murals on each of the Eighteen Heavenly Pillars are especially worth appreciating."

Wu Changkong said, "Calm your minds and enter the Spirit Ascension Platform later. You can only rely on yourselves."

Tang Wulin asked in surprise, "Teacher, aren't you coming in with us?"

Wu Changkong said, "Only Soul Masters below the fourth ring can enter the Elementary Spirit Ascension Platform."

Long Hengxu nodded and said, "But don't worry, we will keep an eye on you from outside. If there is any danger, you must evacuate back on your own. We will explain the precautions to you later."

Led by Long Hengxu and Wu Changkong, the group entered an elevator, which was going down instead of going up.

Gu You found it strange on his first descent. Last time, Leng Yaozhu took him to the Ascension Platform of the Heavenly Spirit Tower using spatial teleportation, arriving instantly, but he didn't know where it was. This experience indirectly told Gu You that it was underground...
