Douluo Continent: Lin Dong transmigrates into Huo Yuhao

Chapter 138 Soaring Realm, Ancestral Symbol Exposed

Looking at the God of Destruction glaring at him, Tang San sneered:

"Why don't you stay in your ruined castle and keep coming to my temple?"

"Hmph, don't change the subject. I'm asking you, as an enforcer of the divine realm, how could you descend to the mortal realm without permission and cause such a commotion? It seems you're not suited for this position."

Upon hearing the word "destruction," a subtle killing intent flashed in Tang San's eyes, but considering his current state, he could only coldly retort:

"Destruction! What do you know! I descended to the mortal realm for its stability. A powerful heretic has appeared there. If I don't intervene, what will become of the beings in the mortal realm?"

"Cough cough cough," he said, coughing violently due to excessive excitement. Hearing his righteous and stern reply, Destruction couldn't help but frown.

"What are you talking about? How could you know what's happening in the lower realm if you didn't peek down there without permission?"

Touched by the destruction, Tang San retorted with a flushed face:

"What's wrong with that? This God-King observes the mortal realm for its own sake."

Upon hearing this, Destruction seemed to seize the opportunity and let out a cold snort:

"It's only been a few hours, and you've already made two unauthorized moves. Do you dare say there's nothing in the lower realm that interests you?"

Tang San's face darkened as he realized that Destruction had seen through his purpose. "Damn Destruction, how dare you spy on me, a god! You have a death wish!"

But the current God-King knew his injuries were severe and unsuitable for conflict. He could only tell himself, "Where there's life, there's hope," and gave an extremely unnatural explanation as he looked at the destruction:

"You're overthinking it. Xiao Qi is recuperating in the lower realm. As a father, it's only natural for him to care about his daughter."

Destruction, upon hearing this, gave an unnatural twitch of the corner of his mouth. Knowing he had no offspring, he still said such things—damn sea god!

But outwardly, she couldn't make things difficult for him any further, so she could only coldly retort:

"I hope this kind of thing doesn't happen again, otherwise, you should bring your precious daughter back."

As the aura of destruction completely vanished, a gloomy light flickered in Tang San's eyes:

It seems that I cannot act rashly until my injuries have healed. As for that mysterious transmigrator from the lower realm, I will have to put him aside for the time being.

Hmph, once I, the God-King, find that transmigrator, obtain those mysterious treasures, and destroy him, you will pay the price for your rudeness these past few days!

Nether.

"Lin Dong, what have you been doing secretly? How come you're leveling up so fast?!"

Seeing Meng Hongchen's surprised expression, Lin Dong could only brush it off with a slight understanding. After another round of examination, the teacher in charge of the examination looked at Meng Hongchen respectfully and said:

"Dean, Lin Dong's potential has not been affected in the slightest. On the contrary, the energy in his body is extremely condensed, and there is no sign of any aftereffects of forcibly raising his cultivation level."

Seeing the surprised expressions on their faces, Lin Dong could only remain silent with a calm expression. Jing Hongchen paused for a moment before slowly speaking:

"At this rate of progress, it won't be long before some of the elders in Mingde Hall are no match for you."

Don't go back to Shrek Academy alone to seek revenge before Mingde Hall is even fully repaired.

Xiao Hongchen swallowed a pill and mumbled indistinctly:

"That's right, Lin Dong, you'll have to wait for me and Meng. With your methods, our cultivation speed has increased a lot. We can't let you go to take revenge alone."

Seeing his anxious look, Lin Dong smiled at him and Meng Hongchen, who was standing to the side with an expectant expression:

"Of course, I'm not stupid enough to go for revenge without any preparation. You guys should hurry up and cultivate."

Xiao Hongchen and the other person nodded quickly and said in unison, "No problem, we'll go now!"

Watching the two figures leave in a hurry, Jing Hongchen smiled and shook his head:

"Among their peers, only you can make them listen to you like this."

"Is that so?" Seeing Lin Dong's teasing smile, Jing Hongchen laughed heartily:

"Of course, they wouldn't even give Ma Rulong face, let alone Mika Linxi and the others."

Reminded by his words, Lin Dong suddenly spoke up: "By the way, Dean, could you please call them over for me?"

"The method I used to help Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen should be almost complete for their physical transformations now, and my spiritual power is sufficient to help them as well."

Jing Hongchen was overjoyed upon hearing this, for these were the pillars of their future. He had witnessed firsthand the benefits that Lin Dong's miraculous method had brought to Xiao Hongchen and the others.

If we can help Ma Rulong and the others complete their transformation, it will definitely be of great help to the future development of the Sun and Moon Sect. He quickly instructed the messenger beside him:

"Call Ma Rulong and the others over here. Whatever their business is, stop immediately and come over."

After the waiter left, Lin Dong shook his head with a smile: "It's not that serious, Dean. If they're busy, we can do it another day."

"What are you saying? Their affairs are not as important as yours. Besides, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them. How can we expect you to accommodate them?"

Lin Dong realized that Jing Hongchen was being so considerate because he knew he was focusing on his cultivation, so he didn't refuse his kindness. Soon after, he saw Ma Rulong, Lin Xi, and Mika arrive.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Lin Dong explained the preparations needed for the soul power conversion, and the group all wore expressions of utter astonishment.

After a moment of silence, Lin Xi spoke first, laughing:

"It has to be you again. You've practically created a new cultivation system?"

"Yes, what you're talking about is even more astonishing than your performance on the field. The difference is just too great."

Hearing Lin Xi and Ma Rulong's praise, Lin Dong smiled and clapped his hands: "Alright, stop praising me, let's get down to business."

Mika smiled brightly at him: "Don't worry, we won't let you down. We'll go find those Shrek bastards. Even though I'm not very strong, I can at least take a bullet for you, right?"

A warm feeling welled up in Lin Dong's heart, and he gently patted his shoulder: "Don't worry, when you meet them next time, that kind of thing won't happen again."

A slightly menacing smile appeared on the faces of Mika, Ma Rulong, and the others:

"Yeah, with how freakish you are, you'd better kill all those bastards in the next competition."

Lin Dong grinned: "That's right. We'll be the host next time. I wonder who Shrek Academy will send to lead the team."

"Whoever they are, they're on our turf. Whoever comes here has to be dealt with. The only question is whether they dare to participate in this competition."

"Never mind them, let's focus on our cultivation first. If they come, great; if not, we'll go find them."

Lin Xi couldn't help but purse her lips and interject, while Lin Dong nodded: "That's right, let's get down to business first."

Following Lin Dong's instructions, everyone prepared and proceeded in order of increasing difficulty: Ma Rulong, Mika, Lin Xi, Li Yan, Chen Fei, Chen An, and Xiao Xiafeng.

Ma Rulong was already a level 66 Soul Emperor, so the transformation was naturally the most difficult, taking him nearly six hours to complete.

But Lin Dong's face showed no sign of dejection. After all, his mental strength had greatly improved. Seeing this, Jing Hongchen did not stop him from continuing to transform Lin Xi.

Four more hours passed, and Lin Xi's transformation was successfully completed. At this moment, Lin Dong sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and began to cultivate.

Although everyone was puzzled, they remained silent and waited. After only ten minutes, Lin Dong opened his eyes:

"Level 45!"

As everyone watched Lin Dong break through once again, Jing Hongchen numbly tugged at the corners of his mouth:

"Lin Dong, tell me the truth, did you sign a contract with something? You leveled up three times while sleeping, and then leveled up again right after that. This is simply unbelievable!"

Hearing Jing Hongchen's words, Lin Dong shook his head, both amused and exasperated, and explained helplessly:

"Dean, just consider this as me receiving some interest when I helped them convert their soul power."

Jing Hongchen paused for a moment, then chuckled dryly, trying to calm his overreaction. However, everyone present was focused on Lin Dong and no one noticed his loss of composure.

"Wait a minute, Lin Dong, you're charging us interest, so why do I feel like my soul power is even stronger than before?"

Feeling the powerful energy within the seed of Yuan Power in his body, Mika couldn't help but scratch his head and look at Lin Dong, asking a question.

Lin Dong could only brush it off with the word "secret." He then had to switch between Lin Xi and Li Yan, but Jing Hongchen advised, "You've been switching for so long, go back and rest."

Lin Dong pointed to the sky outside, which was almost bright, and smiled faintly:

"Forget it, Dean, I'll rest after I've finished helping them with the changes. It'll be dark by then, and I'll be feeling alright."

Looking into his bright, sparkling eyes, Jing Hongchen hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying:

"Then I'll do as you say. But, after switching between so many people, has your mental strength become that powerful?"

Lin Dong smiled noncommittally: "It's just that with more switching, it's not as tiring as it was at the beginning."

"Okay, then you can continue. Don't push yourself."

"Okay," Lin Dong replied, and then helped Lin Xi change again.

As Lin Dong became more and more proficient in the transformation, he no longer needed to restrain the power of the Ancestral Symbol, and the efficiency of the transformation also increased significantly.

It only took six hours to complete the transformation for Lin Xili Yan. Looking at the dim sky outside, Lin Dong breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Chen Fei and the other two:

"Why don't you go back first, and we can continue tomorrow morning?"

"No problem, you've been working so hard, we'll come find you tomorrow morning."

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

After Lin Dong and the others returned to their respective rooms, he took a deep breath:

"The soul power absorbed from the two of them doesn't seem to be very high. It might reach level 46 after conversion, but it's still much faster than normal cultivation."

After pondering for a while, he sat cross-legged on the bed again, assuming a meditative posture. Tianmeng reminded him in his spiritual sea:

"What are you doing? Are you out of your mind? You're pushing yourself too hard. You still have to help people convert their soul power tomorrow. You should get some rest."

Lin Dong replied casually, "Never mind, I'll cultivate a little longer. It's not time to rest yet."

"Sigh, you're not cultivating, you're cultivating your life force."

Lin Dong waved his hand lightly: "Okay, I'll review my necromancy and then rest."

"Okay, I'm doing this for your health."

After Tianmeng finished speaking, Lin Dong fell into a deep sleep after reviewing the necromancy.

The next day.

Lin Dong had just gotten up when he saw Chen Fei and the other two waiting at his door. After calling them into the room to complete the transformation, Lin Dong seized the opportunity to use the soul power extracted from the three of them to begin his cultivation.

Ten minutes later, Lin Dong clenched his fist, a glint of light flashing in his eyes:

"Level 46! What a pity, everyone who was going to transform has already done so. From now on, I can only cultivate using the Devouring Ancestral Symbol."

Just as he finished speaking, a knock sounded at the door. Lin Dong looked at Meng Hongchen standing outside and asked softly:

"Why are you here? Didn't you say you were going to focus on your cultivation?"

Meng Hongchen smiled and handed over several jade bottles:

"Here, these pills are what Grandpa asked me to bring to you. They are all good things that won't damage your foundation. Some enhance soul power absorption, while others strengthen the spirit and body."

She crawled under his armpit and said, "How rude of you! I brought you something and you didn't even invite me in for a drink of water."

"Miss Meng, what do you need a glass of water for? Why don't you use this time to cultivate?"

No sooner had she finished speaking than Meng Hongchen suddenly turned and leaned closer. Lin Dong instinctively took a half-step back. A hint of melancholy flashed in her eyes, then she clicked her tongue and sighed:

"Whether it's good or bad, you have to give it to me." Her eyes blinked slightly, then her expression suddenly froze, and she said incredulously:

"Wait, how come you leveled up twice again? We've only been apart for two days, and your cultivation level has improved way too much!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong coughed twice, took out a disposable cup, poured her a glass of water, and handed it to her, saying:

"I helped Ma Rulong and the others convert their soul power, so it's normal for their cultivation levels to improve. Didn't I help you improve last time?"

After hearing his explanation, Meng Hongchen puffed out her cheeks in anger, but after a moment she finally couldn't hold back anymore, her face falling as she said bitterly:

"You freak! At this rate of cultivation, how can I possibly keep up with you..."

Seemingly realizing that what she said could easily be misunderstood, she quickly blushed and waved her hand to explain:

"No, no, no, how could Xiao and I possibly catch up with you?"

Lin Dong didn't say much, only nodded. Sensing the somewhat strange atmosphere, Meng Hongchen's beautiful blue eyes flashed with a hint of disappointment. She drank the water in her cup in one gulp and forced a smile.

"Then I'll go first, otherwise the gap will only widen, and I'll be too embarrassed to see you again."

Lin Dong smiled faintly: "That's not the case. I wouldn't look down on anyone because of my strength."

"Let's go." Meng Hongchen got up and walked out the door, waving her hand lightly, looking somewhat forlorn.

Lin Dong's eyes flickered. How could he not see through the other person's thoughts? However, Huanhuan had not been found yet, and he had no time to think about these things for the time being.

"Hoo..." He took a deep breath and gripped the still slightly warm jade bottles:

"Let's see what's so magical about this elixir. It's time to get back to cultivation..."

Sun and Moon Palace.

Looking at the weakened Zhongli Wu, the old emperor couldn't help but ask:

"Why is the Imperial Preceptor's aura so weak? Is he alright?"

Zhongli Wu coughed lightly twice, his face pale.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am fine. There was just a mishap yesterday. I will be alright after a period of rest."

Kong Deming glanced at him from the side; the Imperial Preceptor's injuries didn't seem as minor as they'd made out to be...

Sun and moon in a secret room.

Ye Xishui looked at the Holy Spirit Cult elder before her with a gloomy expression and asked coldly, "Is everything you said true?"

Hearing the intense killing intent in her tone, the elder replied in a trembling voice:

"Reporting to the Supreme Master, I assure you that I happened to be on a mission in the Heavenly Soul Empire that day when I came across the match. The young man named Lin Dong did indeed summon a mysterious rune."

Although the time was extremely short, I saw it very clearly. If even one word I have said is untrue, I am willing to become nourishment for the vengeful spirits of the Supreme Master's Death Tower.

Hearing his confident assurances, a hint of murderous intent flashed in Ye Xishui's eyes: "Well done, you can go now."

After the elder left, Ye Xishui's face turned icy, and a powerful killing intent suddenly erupted from her body as she murmured in a low voice:

"Lin Dong is just a child, how could he possibly master such magical talismans? There must be something fishy going on!"

She seemed to be about to leave when, unexpectedly, a hand grabbed her.

"Xi Shui, calm down. It's not worth offending that kid over a mere guess. His status with Jing Hongchen is terrifyingly high. Don't be impulsive!"

Ye Xishui shook off his hand and shouted angrily:

"Do you think I'm brainless? I definitely need to verify the facts first. As for what I do after that, it's none of your business, and even Jing Hongchen can't stop me!"

Having said that, he ignored Long Xiaoyao's attempts to stop him and slowly disappeared from the spot...
