Douluo Continent: The Eye of Truth

Chapter 164 The Revival of the Ancient Tree

Just as Gu Yuena and Huo Yuhao's cooperation was getting better and better and taking shape.

Shrek Academy, Sea God Pavilion.

Since the arrival of Niu Tian and Titan, two Limit Douluo from the Haotian Sect.

The elders who originally lived in the various secret rooms of the Sea God Pavilion have all moved out.

At the same time, this enormous pavilion, which has served as a symbol of Poseidon Island for tens of thousands of years, can be said to change its appearance every day.

The ancient golden tree, which had lost its original tree-like form, is now regrowing.

The cut branches regrow, and the hollowed-out trunks become full again.

It grew taller and taller, its branches and leaves flourishing, and in its place, it became centered around Poseidon Island.

The concentration of spiritual energy throughout Shrek Academy, and even Shrek City, is decreasing dramatically at an alarming rate.

Although external spiritual energy occasionally replenishes the area, it is only a drop in the ocean compared to the rate at which it is consumed.

However, none of the senior members of Shrek Academy showed any resistance to this matter; on the contrary, they were overjoyed.

They even restricted teachers and students within the college from discussing this matter.

This was because they had received Niu Tian's promise and the manifestation of the Sea God Tang San, and they understood that all these changes were in preparation for strengthening Shrek Academy's foundation.

In reality, only Soul Masters are slightly more sensitive to high concentrations of spiritual energy from heaven and earth.

Most of the residents of Shrek City didn't seem to care much about this.

However, while some are happy, others are sad; not everyone is as joyful as most of the elderly.

At this moment, apart from the Sea God Pavilion, or rather the Golden Ancient Tree, only two people remain on Sea God Island.

As the golden ancient tree grew, its size increased, and it gradually occupied the entire Poseidon Island.

One of them was Niu Tian, ​​the Grand Master of the Haotian Sect, who was transformed from the Azure Bull Python.

The other person, if not for his disheveled hair, would probably be hard to recognize as Xuanzi.

At this time, Xuanzi no longer carried his iconic wine gourd with him.

Even his hands, which used to be constantly greasy, no longer held a big chicken leg all the time.

However, his clothes were still tattered and worn, and his old eyes, though cloudy, revealed a hint of clarity.

Perhaps he has changed after experiencing major setbacks time and time again, but what can Xuanzi do now?

These minor changes were not even enough to allow him to retain Shrek's original Sea God Pavilion.

With the strength of a level 98 Super Douluo, he has gradually become powerless to participate in change, and he can no longer even maintain the status quo.

The Sea God Pavilion Masters who left their souls and lifelong soul power in the Golden Tree Seed throughout the ages, as well as the soul and soul power of the previous Sea God Pavilion Master, Mu En.

At this moment, all the resources that Shrek Academy would normally only use up during its most perilous times have been completely transformed into nourishment for the Golden Tree.

"Lord Niu Tian, ​​are you sure this move will truly be effective for Shrek Academy?"

Looking at the Taotie Douluo beside him, whose face had been unfriendly ever since the arrival of the Haotian Sect.

Niu Tian's expression remained unchanged: "What do you know? This is a method bestowed by His Majesty the Sea God."

"Didn't you all witness the revival of the Golden Tree with your own eyes?"

"And I was just carrying out their orders on their behalf, waiting for the Golden Tree to fully recover."

"At that time, Shrek Academy will be like having a god-level being who will not ascend to immortality overseeing it."

"With such a powerful trump card, who in this world could possibly threaten Shrek Academy in the slightest?"

"Or is it," Niu Tian glanced sideways at Xuan Zi, and snorted coldly, "that you're dissatisfied with His Majesty the Sea God's arrangements?"

Xuanzi was speechless for a moment, but an indescribable sadness welled up in his old eyes.

If it weren't for this unexpected turn of events, Moon's remnant soul and consciousness could have continued for at least another century.

Now, it's all gone, everything is gone, the last trace of Moon left in the world has completely vanished.

"Is this really worth it, Elder Mu? Junior Uncle?"

Suppressing his sadness and the barely concealed anger within him, Xuanzi turned and left.

Niu Tian naturally took note of Xuanzi's performance.

However, he did not take this level 98 Super Douluo seriously.

Even the deceased Mu En, whose cultivation level was at the level of a Limit Douluo at level ninety-nine, was nothing in his eyes.

just

Niu Tian's gaze then turned to a spot at the base of the golden tree.

The emotions contained within seem to pierce through the thick earth, carrying a rare tenderness and helplessness.

In the underground space that was originally opened up by Shrek Academy, suitable for all types of Soul Masters to cultivate.

At this moment, it was already occupied by a dense mass of golden ancient tree roots.

As for the original resources and environment, they naturally became nutrients for the golden ancient tree.

However, the most central room remained somewhat empty.

A pale gold hue, like a liquid, ripples within it.

The high concentration was achieved by forming light elements that condensed together like a liquid, filling this space of less than ten cubic meters.

In the very center of the room, among the roots of those ancient golden trees, were the figures of two beautiful women, one real and one ethereal.

A girl with long blue hair sat cross-legged on the ground.

A pair of beautiful butterfly wings unfolded behind it, constantly absorbing the seemingly inexhaustible light element energy around it.

At the same time, in her hand, a small hammer that was originally jet black was now stained with a light gold color.

Her skin was translucent, as if radiating golden light from within.

Behind her was the silhouette of a woman who appeared to be in her thirties.

The young woman possessed an air of elegance, dressed in a long blue and gold dress. She embraced the girl in front of her, pressing her close to her as if whispering something in the girl's ear.

These two women are naturally Wang Dong'er, the daughter of Tang San, the young sect leader of the Haotian Sect.

She is now with her grandmother, Tang Buddha's mother, Ah Yin, who is usurping the power of the life core of Douluo Star.

As a crucial vessel for Tang San's divine descent, Wang Dong'er's importance in Tang San's current plan is self-evident.

Even though it had absorbed the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red, it had taken far too long.

Furthermore, Tang San's spiritual foundation completely dissipated, leaving Wang Dong'er with considerable injuries.

These hidden injuries are now becoming obstacles hindering Wang Dong'er's breakthrough and recovery.

Therefore, when there is no other way.

Niu Tian could only ask Ah Yin to step in despite her busy schedule to help Wang Dong'er recover.

Previously, due to the monitoring of the divine realm, Ah Yin could only seize the core position of life in secret.

Now, with the cooperation of Shrek Academy and without the need to worry about disturbing the divine realm, this process has naturally been greatly accelerated.

If things continue like this, Ah Yin will be able to completely replace the Golden Ancient Tree's core of life within a year.

At that time, Gintoki, due to a lack of accumulation, was unable to fully unleash the power of his life core.

However, it is definitely beyond the level of ordinary gods and priests, and can possess the strength of a third-level god.

It's simply because I'm simultaneously focused on the core of life and Wang Dong'er.

Ah Yin, however, did not notice the unusual emotions displayed by her granddaughter.

Because no matter what she said to Wang Dong'er, even if it was about her father, mother, or family.

Wang Dong'er remained completely indifferent, as if she hadn't been affected at all, and sat quietly in place.

With the help of external light elements and the life energy that Ah Yin infused into her, she slowly recovered her injured body and broken soul.

At the same time, he consolidated his cultivation, which had been somewhat shaken by his injuries, and continued to grow stronger after rebuilding his foundation.

At this moment, Niu Tian, ​​who was outside, looked up at the sky with a sorrowful expression in his eyes, but no one knew what he was thinking.

It could be Tang San, it could be Xiao Wu, it could be one's own brother, or it could be Wang Dong'er.

But the arrival of someone at this moment disrupted Niu Tian's thoughts.

The Grand Elder of the Haotian Sect, an old man with white hair and beard, came to Niu Tian's side in a somewhat flustered manner.

Seeing the panic the other party hadn't shown in a hundred years, and recalling his previous bad premonition, Niu Tian's heart skipped a beat.

"Grand Master, something terrible has happened!"

The Grand Elder of the Haotian Sect collected his thoughts briefly before speaking.

"As usual, our sect's disciples have been sending people to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes to change the guards these past few days."

"But."

Seeing the other person's hesitant manner, Niu Tian's anger flared up. He grabbed the other person and demanded, "Speak! But what is it?"

"I, the eight Soul Douluos, three Title Douluos, and one Super Douluo who were originally responsible for assisting in the defense of my Clear Sky Sect have all been confirmed to have been killed."

Seeing Niu Tian grow increasingly angry, and at the same time emanating a powerful aura like that of a ferocious beast, he was filled with awe.

The Grand Elder of the Haotian Sect barely managed to speak, saying, "At the same time, the Second Sect Master has disappeared and his whereabouts are unknown, and the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes have also been completely destroyed."

"All the herbs we planted, including the two springs, Ice Spring and Fire Spring, have disappeared."

Niu Tian paid no attention to the second half of what the other person said; all his mind and attention were drawn to the first half.

The two leaders, Titan and their respective leaders, have disappeared without a trace. Are they truly missing, or have they vanished into thin air?

Looking back on the days when he and his second brother were still Da Ming and Er Ming, they spent tens of thousands of years together with Xiao Wu and her mother.

Afterwards, he followed Tang San to become a god and benefited from his fame.

The two then became priests together and descended to the mortal realm together, and have never been separated over the years.

Now, all I do is watch over the growth of the golden ancient tree.

Therefore, the task of guarding the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye was entrusted to the second brother.

But I never expected that I would hear such terrible news just a few months later.

If we could see the Titan's body, then there would still be a chance to salvage the situation.

After all, it possesses the power of a life core; as long as the physical body and soul are not completely destroyed, there is always a possibility of resurrection.

But at this point, the outcome was undoubtedly the worst possible: missing and unaccounted for.

Even the identity of the perpetrator cannot be found. What is Niu Tian supposed to do?

The Azure Bull Python's furious roar, tinged with profound sorrow, echoed from the Golden Tree throughout Shrek City.

All the Soul Masters in the city seemed to feel the same sorrow at this moment.

Meanwhile, in the distant Starry Sky Forest, some people also noticed this scene.

"Ha, traitor, let's spare his life for now."

Gu Yuena said coldly, clearly having heard the sorrow hidden in the roar of the Azure Bull Python.

As for the other ferocious beasts surrounding Gu Yuena, bowing respectfully, their eyes revealed a hint of disdain.

If Niu Tian and Titan hadn't obtained their titles as priests by currying favor with the gods, these two 100,000-year-old soul beasts would have been nothing in their eyes.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao was also among a ferocious beast, standing to the right of Gu Yuena, just like Di Ruier, while Di Tian was to the left of Gu Yuena.

The way they were positioned at this moment already spoke volumes about their status.

Even though the identity was imposed on Huo Yuhao by the Silver Dragon King, it had already gained the recognition of the group of ferocious beasts.

Even Di Tian couldn't say anything against it, because in the hearts of soul beasts and ferocious beasts, the Silver Dragon King was undoubtedly the heaven.

After the extreme grief subsided, Niu Tian finally released the Grand Elder of the Haotian Sect, whom he had nearly killed with a single claw in his rage.

At this moment, Niu Tian looked at the other party with icy eyes: "Go, notify the Haotian Sect and Shrek Academy, and have everyone go to the location of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to investigate."

"Find that intruder at all costs, dead or alive! Send someone to inform me immediately if you have any news."

"Yes, yes!" Looking at Niu Tian's gaze, which seemed to want to devour someone, and his vertical pupils that looked like those of a snake.

Even the highly skilled Grand Elder of the Haotian Sect couldn't help but shudder and immediately fled the place as if his life depended on it.

Sensing Niu Tian's pain and anger, a golden branch of the ancient golden tree drooped down, as if to dissuade or comfort him.

At this moment, even though Niu Tian understood the orders given by Tang San and that the importance of his two brothers was far less than that of the life core, he did not realize that the life core was the most important thing to him.

But he couldn't care less about all that now; he just wanted to leave immediately and avenge Titan.

The reason he still maintained basic rationality was...

The most important reason is that no one who could be suspected immediately appeared after Titan's disappearance.

Otherwise, even Niu Tian himself doubted whether he could control his emotions.

Therefore, Niu Tian did not leave the Golden Ancient Tree, but instead used the aura of the Golden Ancient Tree to stabilize his emotions.

At this moment, he didn't know whether he hoped the Haotian Sect and Shrek Academy would find the suspect sooner or later.

However, Niu Tian, ​​who was suppressing his anger and trying to remain calm, did not consider another problem.

A Titan possessing the same strength as a priest, even if there is a difference in their strength when they go all out, but the difference is still negligible, will encounter an unexpected situation.

Therefore, the enemy's ability level must be at least higher than theirs, or even a level higher.

In this way, even if he were to use his own strength, he would most likely be sent to his death.

Not to mention the ants below the god level from the Clear Sky Sect and Shrek Academy.

In a way, Tang San's orders and the existence of the Golden Tree saved Niu Tian's life.

Once he calms down, he will naturally be able to sort out this logic.
