Simultaneous Transmigration: From Douluo Continent to the Pinnacle
Chapter 341 The Poison That Makes One Truly Admit It Is Indestructible
The Douluo Continent has been passed down for ten thousand years, with various forces intertwined and countless top-tier monsters who have survived for over a hundred years.
Those titled, super, and even limit Douluo who have stood on the continent for a century are all shrewd and calculating individuals.
Having weathered countless storms and battles, and witnessed the world's power struggles and cunning, his shrewdness and methods have reached the pinnacle.
Without overwhelming power, even the most perfect plan or the grandest blueprint is ultimately just empty talk.
If he lacks strength, even if he promulgates new policies and promotes reforms, the established forces will only outwardly comply but inwardly obstruct him, appearing compliant on the surface but hindering him in every way. No matter how eloquent he is or how much he tries to persuade, he will find it difficult to make any progress.
Lin Yao now possesses the absolute strength to overlook the world and suppress all enemies.
After defeating the poison-resistant immortal and annihilating the main force of the Body Sect in the Battle of the Ice Sea, the top forces across the entire continent were completely terrified by his terrifying strength.
During this period, Lin Yao often went alone to the headquarters of the Body Sect to spar with Du Busi.
His true intentions lay elsewhere. Firstly, he wanted to hone his combat skills and familiarize himself with the combat rhythm of top-tier experts. Secondly, he wanted to delve into the supreme mysteries of the Body Martial Soul, absorb the essence of the Body Sect's martial soul passed down for thousands of years, and make up for his own shortcomings.
In every sparring match, Lin Yao always maintained perfect control, suppressing his own strength to a level equal to that of Du Busi, and never relying on superior realm or overwhelming combat power to win.
Even so, in every competition, the one who couldn't be poisoned always lost.
Whether it was the exquisite duel of gun techniques, the ultimate clash of pure soul power, the unfathomable battle of mental strength, or the contest of martial arts intent and combat foundation, Du Busi exhausted all his cultivation and knowledge, yet still could not shake Lin Yao in the slightest.
With each defeat, he could clearly sense the chasm between them—a complete crushing defeat in combat skills, martial arts foundation, mental control, and overall vision, an insurmountable gap no matter how hard he tried.
Each defeat in sparring matches, and each firsthand witness to Lin Yao's unfathomable strength, completely overturned the perceptions of everyone in the Body Sect.
Previously, the entire Body Sect was proud, believing that their sect leader, Poison Undying, was the strongest expert on the continent and the greatest reliance for the Body Sect to remain standing. However, after battle after battle, all the elders and core disciples clearly saw that their high and mighty sect leader was as vulnerable as an ignorant child in front of the young Lin Yao.
All the contempt, resentment, suspicion, and arrogance I once felt have vanished, completely transformed into heartfelt awe, admiration, and submission.
As someone directly involved in the case, I feel the poison's effects most acutely.
He had lived for over two hundred years, fought countless battles with few defeats, and his temperament was as firm as a rock, unmoved by honor or disgrace. Yet, facing Lin Yao, who was not even twenty years old and whose talent and strength were unparalleled throughout history, he still couldn't help but feel shocked and filled with emotion.
Especially after learning about Lin Yao's grand vision, this shock completely turned into heartfelt recognition.
Lin Yao plans to draw on the structure and system of the Spirit Hall from ten thousand years ago, taking its essence and discarding its dross, to reconstruct a completely new continental Soul Master Alliance system.
Ten thousand years ago, the Spirit Hall was an unparalleled behemoth that ruled the entire continent's spirit master community, once controlling more than half of the continent's spirit master power, possessing immense resources and awe-inspiring influence. Although it ultimately perished in the annals of history, its core concepts of uniting the power of all spirit masters on the continent, unifying industry order, and integrating continental resources are of great value for reference.
The new alliance that Lin Yao wants to build is far more complete, fair, and centralized than the old Spirit Hall, and its scale is also much grander.
The old Spirit Hall was high and mighty, with a strict hierarchy. It oppressed the common people, monopolized resources, and regarded ordinary people and lower-level spirit masters as ants. Its glory only shone on the top elites.
Lin Yao's blueprint is to let the light shine on every corner of the continent, regardless of status or wealth.
He aims to integrate the power of all Soul Masters across the continent, unify the rules of the Soul Master industry, and break down the barriers between sects, empires, and factions; promote and popularize advanced Soul Guidance Device technology, so that top-tier technology is no longer monopolized by a few forces; appease the common people, show compassion for the masses, reduce war and strife, and improve the livelihoods of the lower classes; and unite the power of the entire continent to jointly restrain the ambitious Sun Moon Empire and resist all unknown risks from beyond the borders.
He wanted to ensure that every child with a martial soul talent could receive a fair opportunity for training, and not be buried because of their humble origins; and that every soul master who devoted themselves to cultivation and served the country and its people could receive the respect and rewards they deserved, and no longer be swayed by power or dragged down by pointless disputes.
This vision, this breadth of mind, this ambition deeply moved and stirred the heart of Du Bu Si, who had experienced many vicissitudes and long since become indifferent to worldly affairs.
On this day, the sky was high and the clouds were light, a gentle breeze was blowing, and the main hall of the Body Sect was solemn and quiet.
Inside the hall, the air was filled with the fragrance of sandalwood, and the ancient beams and pillars were engraved with patterns that had been passed down for a thousand years by the Body Sect, exuding a profound sense of the passage of time.
Poison Undying sat upright in the main seat, dressed in an elegant and composed long black robe, his face still showing some pallor from a long illness. Although the serious injuries left by the battle of the Ice Sea had mostly healed, the hidden injuries deep in his body still ached faintly, and the sharp sword energy remaining in his meridians lingered for a long time.
He knew perfectly well that this was the result of Lin Yao deliberately holding back during their previous sparring session. If Lin Yao had truly intended to kill him, he would have been reduced to ashes long ago, and would never have had the chance to sit here today.
Hearing footsteps, Du Busi looked up and his gaze fell on the young man who was slowly walking into the main hall.
Lin Yao, dressed in a plain white robe, stood tall and straight like a pine tree, his steps calm and composed. His eyes were clear and deep, and he exuded no arrogance or hostility, yet he possessed the aura of a king who looked down upon the world. Despite his young age, he had a composure and shrewdness far surpassing that of a hundred-year-old monster, and his aura was calm and vast, making people dare not look him directly in the eye.
After Lin Yao slowly walked to the guest seat in the hall and took his seat, Du Busi composed himself, nodded slightly, and spoke politely in a voice that was slightly hoarse from long-term injuries: "Sect Leader Lin, what brings you to my Body Sect today? May I ask what brings you here?"
Lin Yao picked up the warm teacup from the table, his fingertips lightly touching the rim, his movements relaxed and unhurried. He lowered his eyes slightly, took a sip of tea, then put down the cup, looked up at Poison Undying in the main seat, his gaze calm and unwavering, his tone firm and solemn: "Poison Sect Master, I have come here today specifically to extend an invitation to you. I hope you can lead the Body Sect to join the new Continental Soul Master Alliance that I am establishing."
Upon hearing this, Poison Undying's pupils narrowed slightly, his body stiffened, and a look of astonishment instantly appeared on his face.
He paused for a moment, then shook his head bitterly, raising his hand to smooth his sleeve. His tone carried a hint of self-mockery and dejection: "Sect Leader Lin is joking. My Body Sect is now severely weakened, barely clinging to life. I myself am also riddled with hidden injuries and my strength has greatly diminished. How could my meager cultivation be worthy of the Sect Leader's attention, let alone the Sect Leader's personal recruitment?"
Lin Yao shook his head slightly, his eyes sincere, his tone firm and powerful, without the slightest hint of politeness: "The Poison Sect Master is too modest."
"After several exchanges with the sect leader, I have thoroughly grasped the supreme mysteries of the Body Martial Soul and know that the Body Sect's thousand-year-old heritage is no exaggeration. The Body Sect has been able to stand firm on the continent for a thousand years, surviving countless wars, conflicts, and sect rivalries, not because of luck, but because of its solid foundation, heritage, and wisdom."
He stared directly at Du Busi, his words clear and resounding: "I need your lifelong cultivation experience, wisdom in dealing with the world, and vision, as well as the millennia-old heritage and remaining power of the Body Sect, to jointly reshape the continent's landscape and create a new order."
Upon hearing this, Du Busi froze completely, falling into a long silence.
He slowly lowered his head, his gaze falling on his calloused, deeply textured hands. These hands had witnessed half a lifetime of battles and struggles, holding the fate of the Body Sect for hundreds of years. They had fought for power, seized resources, protected the sect, and battled powerful enemies. They had been unyielding and never yielded.
Decades of ups and downs, and entanglements of interests, have long since worn away the sharp edges and passion of his youth. He has become accustomed to sect struggles and power balances, focusing solely on protecting the survival of the Body Sect, seizing more resources, and consolidating the sect's position, having long forgotten the pure ideals and original aspirations of his youth.
After a long silence, he slowly raised his head, his cloudy eyes churning with extremely complex emotions: astonishment, guilt, relief, and even more so, anticipation for the future. His voice was dry and low: "Sect Leader Lin... what exactly does this alliance you speak of look like? Can the future you want to create truly be realized?"
Seeing that he was moved, Lin Yao smiled gently but confidently.
He leaned forward slightly and slowly began to speak, recounting the grand blueprint he had been preparing for a long time.
From the rise and fall, merits and demerits of the Spirit Hall ten thousand years ago, to the current development status and existing shortcomings of Shrek Academy; from the chaotic situation of the four kingdoms confronting each other and constant conflicts in the Douluo Continent, to the hidden ambitions and crises of various forces; from the unification and integration of future Soul Master power and the popularization of Soul Guidance technology to the improvement of people's livelihood at the grassroots level and the vision of a peaceful world; from the ambition to counterbalance the Sun Moon Empire to the ultimate goal of resisting unknown risks from beyond the realm and exploring the path to godhood.
His speech was calm and composed, clear and logical, with every word grounded in reality and without any empty promises. He outlined a clear and magnificent future.
His gentle voice echoed in the solemn hall, carrying a unique charm and persuasiveness, each word striking the heart of Du Busi.
Poison Undying listened quietly, his eyes shifting with changing emotions. From initial doubt and hesitation, to shock and astonishment, and finally, to utter awe and burning passion.
He had lived for over two hundred years and had seen countless exceptionally talented and ambitious young geniuses, as well as countless powerful figures who aspired to unify the continent and create a golden age. But he had never seen anyone like Lin Yao, whose vision and perspective transcended his time, whose plans were profound and meticulous, whose understanding of the world's trends and future directions was so clear, and whose vision of a golden age was so vivid, magnificent, and tangible.
After Lin Yao finished speaking, the hall fell silent for a moment.
Poison Undying's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, his voice trembling with barely concealed uncertainty: "Sect Master Lin... can all that you've described, this grand and prosperous future... truly come to fruition?"
Lin Yao raised his eyes, his gaze filled with absolute confidence that surpassed everything, clear and firm: "As long as there are people willing to believe in me, help me, and follow me, and everyone is of one mind and moves in the same direction, this prosperous future will surely be achieved."
A simple sentence, yet it carries a powerful and moving force.
Poison Undying fell into a long silence once again, his mind churning with childhood memories that had been sealed away for a hundred years.
In his youth, he was also full of passion and lofty aspirations. At that time, he also longed to change this continent full of strife, to break down the barriers between Soul Masters and ordinary people, to make Soul Masters no longer feared and dreaded by the world, to end the war, to eliminate suffering, and to let all people live in peace and prosperity.
But as time went by and reality became cruel, his original aspirations were eventually buried by the daily struggles for interests and the scheming of sects. He gradually became pragmatic, indifferent, and obsessive, living his entire life solely for the survival of the Body Sect, with no longer any sense of the world's grand vision.
But the young pavilion master before him, with his grand ideals, instantly awakened his original aspirations and passion that had been dormant for a hundred years.
At that moment, he suddenly realized that the sect's interests he had so desperately upheld and the obsession he had carried for half his life were ultimately too narrow-minded. True strength is never about being self-sufficient or confined to one's own corner, but about benefiting the world and bringing blessings to all living beings.
With this thought in mind, all the entanglements, hesitations, and resentments in my heart vanished without a trace.
He took a deep breath of the sandalwood incense in the hall, and his cloudy eyes suddenly became clear and firm.
With a slight straightening of his body, the arrogant sect leader of the Body Sect, who had never bowed to anyone throughout his life, slowly stepped out of the main seat, bent his knees slightly, and knelt heavily on one knee.
His posture was upright, his expression solemn, and his tone fervent and resolute, filled with a devotion and submission he had never felt in his life: "Sect Master Lin... no, Sect Master!"
"I, an old man, am invincible to poison, and I am willing to lead the entire Body Sect to submit and join the Pavilion Master's alliance! From this day forward, all the disciples, resources, and foundations of the Body Sect will be at the Pavilion Master's command! For the rest of our lives, we will follow the Pavilion Master's lead without fail!"
An aged voice echoed throughout the hall, each word resounding and powerful.
This kneeling was not out of fear of Lin Yao's overwhelming combat power, nor was it due to being forced by Shrek Academy's crushing might.
It is to submit to this vision that transcends time and space, to follow this ideal that benefits the world, and to head towards an unprecedented prosperous future.
A faint smile flickered in Lin Yao's eyes. He stepped forward, gently helping the kneeling Poison Undying to his feet. His palm was warm, and his voice was gentle yet dignified: "Poison Sect Master, welcome to the sect. From this day forward, we shall unite as one to conquer the world."
Poison Undying slowly stood up, raised his eyes to look at the young figure in front of him, his eyes filled with relief and glory.
He silently told himself: his submission today was never about attaching himself to Shrek Academy, but about following Lin Yao alone.
Throughout his life, he was unruly and proud, never bowing his head. Today, he bows his head not for power, not for profit, but for the original aspiration he has regained, for this Douluo Continent that is about to be renewed, and for that glimmer of light that shines upon all living beings in this prosperous era.
From that moment on, the landscape of mainland China was completely rewritten.
With the foundation of Shrek Academy, the inheritance of the Body Sect, a network of secret forces spanning four kingdoms, and control over the lifeblood of the Sun and Moon Sect, Lin Yao has truly grasped the supreme power to overturn the world and reshape the universe.
