Douluo Continent: Lin Dong transmigrates into Huo Yuhao

Chapter 147 Is Lin Dong trying to kill me?!

The second awakening of the main body's martial soul can be divided into four levels: iron, bronze, silver, and gold.

The light emitted from a disciple the instant the energy of the sun and moon enters their body determines their level.

Similarly, the stronger the light, the more thorough the awakening. In recent years, the one with the highest awakening ability is that kid Long Aotian.

He is already one of the top people among the Silver-level Awakened, but what is the situation with the gray light behind Lin Dong?

Could it be a completely new level of awakening? Poison Undying was filled with surprise. Although he had predicted that Lin Dong might be a Gold-level awakening.

But the current situation was something he never expected. Even with his understanding of his own martial soul, he had never heard of such a situation before!

However, the next second, something even more shocking happened: Lin Dong's golden vertical pupils between his brows suddenly turned into a deathly gray.

An extremely terrifying energy emanated from the gray eye between his brows. Sensing this energy that could extinguish all life, Poison Undying's expression changed drastically.

He instantly dashed towards the door, cursing under his breath, "That brat Lin Dong! Does he want to kill me?!"

But he soon noticed that Lin Dong's eyes had changed again; the desolate energy that had just extinguished all life was now suddenly filled with a faint trace of life.

"This energy is so powerful!" Poison Undying's face suddenly filled with wild joy. If he could try to absorb this energy, then reaching the Limit Realm seemed not to be a pipe dream.

Poison Immortal's eyes flashed with intense excitement. For the first time, he felt that his slow progress over the years was actually showing signs of accelerating.

Without time to think too much, Du Busi waved his hand, sat cross-legged at the door, and looked at the mysterious energy emanating from Lin Dong's forehead.

Poison Undying circulated his soul power, carefully trying to absorb that energy. Lin Dong's tightly closed eyelids twitched, as if he had tacitly agreed.

The mysterious energy that had initially resisted suddenly became incredibly compliant. Du Busi glanced at Lin Dong, then, without bothering to apologize, greedily absorbed the rare energy.

Feeling the rich vitality within his body, Du Bu Si's eyes turned slightly bloodshot with excitement, a glint that lingered for a long time.

The old man and the young man began their slow cultivation in the secret chamber...

Starry Sky Forest.

After Jing Hongchen rushed to the Star Dou Great Forest, he saw the dejected group in the arena and forced himself to cheer up, clapping his hands and saying:

"Alright, everyone, stop standing there like idiots. We need to get back to our training. You don't want to hold Lin Dong back, do you?"

The group perked up upon hearing this, nodded at Jing Hongchen, and the auspicious beast was about to follow them back when the Crimson King suddenly jumped out and roared at them:

"Roar! Humans! Release the auspicious beast at once! How dare you abduct it without permission!"

Before Jing Hongchen and the others could speak, the auspicious beast's clear, cold voice rang out:

"Red King, what are you doing! They are all my friends. I brought them here. I just wanted to go and see the human world. Why did you do this as soon as you came out? It makes us soul beasts look like we're brainless."

Hearing the auspicious beast's complaints, the Crimson King's originally angry expression instantly turned somewhat awkward. After stammering for a while, he finally replied in an embarrassed tone:

"Humans are the enemies of soul beasts. There is a fundamental conflict between them and us. How can you be friends with them? The Beast God will not agree to it."

The auspicious beast replied in a cold tone, completely unconcerned:

"I only believe what I see and what I feel. Besides, haven't you noticed that my strength has improved significantly? This has also greatly helped the fortune of the Star Dou Great Forest. You're overthinking it. Di Tian will forgive me."

The Crimson King hesitated upon hearing this, but looking at the auspicious beast's calm face, he could only sigh helplessly.

"So what do you plan to do now? Go with them? How can you guarantee your safety?"

"I've been gone for months and nothing's happened, so how could there be a problem? Besides, I went to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. How many people would dare to cause trouble there?"

After hearing this, the Crimson King hesitated for a moment. As a soul beast, he had heard of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, but could humans really be trusted? Lost in thought, he looked at the auspicious beast and said hesitantly:

"That's true... but..."

"Alright, that's enough. I've made up my mind. It seems that my cultivation speed in the human world is much faster than in the Star Dou Great Forest. Besides, I still have some things to do."

The auspicious beast waved its hand impatiently to interrupt. Although the Crimson King had been protecting her, there was still a certain gap in their status within the Star Dou Great Forest. The Crimson King could only nod helplessly.

"Then you must be careful. You should know how important you are to the Star Dou Great Forest."

After the auspicious beast nodded, it looked at Jing Hongchen and the others, its tone carrying a hint of warning:

"If something happens to the auspicious beast anywhere, the Beast God will definitely unleash a beast tide and the wrath of all the soul beasts. You should think carefully about whether you can bear the consequences."

Jing Hongchen remained calm and composed after hearing this, showing no sign of weakness.

"This is a private matter for our college, no need for you to worry about it."

"Hmph, I hope so." The Crimson King snorted coldly and ran towards the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest.

The auspicious beast smiled faintly at the group. Apart from Ye Guyi, the others' expressions would not have changed much, after all, they had all witnessed the auspicious beast's transformation in the Star Dou Great Forest that day.

Ye Guyi finally understood why this little girl seemed so innocent and cute, yet acted so violently, and was so familiar with the Star Dou Great Forest—it turned out this place really was her home!

But why would this auspicious beast travel so far to find Lin Dong? Does that guy really have that much charm?

Even if he has exceptional talent, how could he possibly make auspicious beasts of high status willing to travel thousands of miles to the academy for him and help him hunt soul beasts?

After a brief moment of preparation, the group took out their respective flying soul tools and soared into the sky, traversing the entire Star Luo Empire, heading towards the Sun and Moon Capital…

The Star Luo Empire, Imperial Palace.

"Your Majesty, Jing Hongchen and his group have already withdrawn from the Star Dou Great Forest. Do you think we should send someone to intercept them within our territory?"

Upon hearing the report, Xu Jiawei pondered for a moment, then said in a serious tone:

"Fine, we didn't stop them when they came, and we have no reason to refuse them when they want to leave. Let them go."

"yes!"

"Alright, go down now," Xu Jiawei instructed in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, the scouts say there's something rather strange about it."

A hint of curiosity appeared on Xu Jiawei's worried face: "Oh, what is it?"

"Lin Dong, who was at the height of his fame at that time, went to the Star Dou Great Forest with them, but when they left, it seemed that the kid was nowhere to be seen."

Upon hearing this, Xu Jiawei pondered for a moment, then, as if suddenly realizing something, he said in a deep voice:

"Guards! Let's proceed! I'm going to Shrek Academy. Summon all the elders from the sect as well."

"Your Majesty, what do you want to do?" The Prime Minister had never seen Xu Jiawei so anxious before, and he quickly asked.

Upon hearing this, Xu Jiawei's face lit up with a smug smile. As he walked away, he explained to the Prime Minister:

"Does the Prime Minister still remember the continental tour competition that the Sun Moon Empire held a few months ago?"

"Your Majesty, I remember that match caused both Xingluo and Shrek to lose face. But what does this have to do with your sudden trip to Shrek Academy?"

Xu Jiawei's face stiffened for a moment, but his smile quickly widened:

"Prime Minister, you may not know this, but according to our informant from the Douling Empire, the people from the Sun Moon Empire made a bet with the Sect Master of the Body Sect."

"Are you referring to the bet that Guan Du Bu Si made to Lin Dong by using a secret technique to awaken his martial soul a second time?"

"That's right! More than seven months have passed since that match. Although I don't know how that damned Lin Dong reached the Soul King level so quickly."

As he said this, a sinister look of frustration flashed in Xu Jiawei's eyes. The fact that such a talent was born in an enemy country made him extremely uneasy!

Seeing the Prime Minister's expectant gaze, Xu Jiawei continued:

"However, given how much that old fellow Jing Hongchen values ​​Lin Dong, he certainly wouldn't let him stay alone in the Star Dou Great Forest, that dangerous place. The only possibility is that Lin Dong went to the Body Sect alone."

After listening, the Prime Minister pondered for a moment, then looked at Xu Jiawei and bowed, saying:

"Your Majesty, although your analysis is not without merit, we do not know when Lin Dong left, and how did he manage to cross the Star Luo Empire and reach the Body Sect right under our noses?"

Xu Jiawei raised his hand to interrupt, his tone carrying a chilling killing intent:

"Regardless, that kid's potential is truly terrifying. If we seize this opportunity and find a way to capture him, we'll definitely be able to gain a lot of benefits from the Sun and Moon Sect. This is a rare opportunity!"

Seeing Xu Jiawei's somewhat agitated expression, the relatively conservative Prime Minister couldn't help but remind him:

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

"Your Majesty, do we really need to make such a big fuss about capturing a mere Soul King? If word gets out, won't we become a laughingstock?"

Xu Jiawei waved his hand dismissively:

"Is it more shameful to bully the weak with superior numbers, or to have the country perish and me become the ruler of a fallen nation? You surely understand the priorities, Prime Minister?"

Hearing this, how could the Prime Minister dare to continue trying to dissuade him? He could only bow and greet him.

"Then this old minister wishes Your Majesty every success. This old minister will assist Her Highness the Princess in handling state affairs for the next few days?"

Seeing that he no longer tried to dissuade him, Xu Jiawei nodded in satisfaction.

"Well, I'll leave it to you and Jiu Jiu. Also, let me reassure you again: do you really think I would be completely unprepared?"

Seeing the Prime Minister's curious gaze, Xu Jiawei smiled mysteriously, a hint of slyness in his tone:

"The Body Sect also has its own hidden agents that they are painstakingly cultivating. This is the perfect opportunity for them to serve the Star Luo Sect to the best of their ability!"

A glint of excitement flashed in Xu Jiawei's eyes, and he couldn't help but murmur excitedly:

"I have a strong feeling that as long as we successfully capture that kid, we in Xingluo will not have to worry about the risk of war for at least ten years."

Seeing that he had already planned to this extent, and knowing that the situation was beyond repair, the Prime Minister bowed and said, "Your Majesty is wise!"

"I'm going to Shrek Academy right now. I refuse to believe they'll turn me away if I go in person."

Xu Jiawei uttered a few words and hurriedly walked towards the door…

Shrek Academy, inside the Sea God Pavilion.

Looking at Xuanzi, who was still asleep with his eyes closed, Mu En's eyes showed no worry, but rather a hint of surprise.

"Xuanzi has been in seclusion for such a long time this time. I'm afraid that when he opens his eyes again, he will already be as strong as me. In addition, his martial soul is of extremely high quality."

Even if this guy is brainless, as long as we put him in a position similar to a bodyguard, he will definitely be a great help to the academy in the future. I can finally breathe a sigh of relief…”

"Elder Mu, Emperor Xu Jiawei of Xingluo has an important matter to discuss with you in person. What do you think?"

Seeing Yan Shaozhe's hesitation, Mu En nodded calmly:

"Take me with you. After all, he is the ruler of a country. I, Shrek, should give him some face."

Upon hearing this, Yan Shaozhe nodded respectfully: "Yes, Elder Mu. Please come with me."

As she was leaving, she secretly glanced at Xuanzi, her tone tinged with excitement:

"Elder Mu, once Elder Xuan awakens, will we be able to avenge the signing of the peace treaty that day? Many elders still find it hard to forget the humiliation of that day!"

Moon frowned after hearing this, and hesitated before saying:

"We at Shrek Academy have always upheld peace, and having just signed a treaty, how could we possibly initiate an attack to disrupt the peace? Wouldn't that be a slap in our own face?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Shaozhe surprisingly retorted:

"Elder Mu, once Elder Xuan successfully emerges from seclusion, along with you, our Shrek Academy will have two Limit Douluos. If we can also invite those two seniors, that will be a total of four Limit Douluos!"

The Sun and Moon Empire's wolfish ambitions are blatantly obvious. We should seize this opportunity to nip their teeth in the bud; this is the best way to eliminate the future threat of war!

Hearing him say this, Moon fell into deep thought, and after a moment murmured:

"What you said makes sense, but if Long Xiaoyao is still alive, then Ye Xishui must also be alive. They are two genuine Limit Douluo."

"Elder Mu, given your relationship with them, can't you persuade them not to take action?"

After hearing this, Moon shook his head and said in a serious tone, "It's difficult. They just won't attack Shrek Academy, but if we take the initiative to find them, how can they not fight?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of disappointment flashed in Yan Shaozhe's eyes, and he gritted his teeth resentfully, saying:

"If we remain silent about the Sun and Moon Cult colluding with the Holy Spirit Cult, wouldn't that just prove the recent rumors that Shrek Academy fears the Sun and Moon are true? Where would our eternal glory stand then?"

Moon glanced at him again, her tone tinged with impatience:

"Alright, that's enough. These things should be discussed after Xuanzi comes out of seclusion. If war were that simple, the Sun Moon Empire would probably have already started a war."

If we act without a legitimate cause, even Shrek Academy will be accused of starting a war and causing widespread suffering. They would then become the "righteous" side, passively retaliating. Wouldn't that be a losing proposition?

Hearing Moon's explanation, Yan Shaozhe nodded:

"Old Master Mu's lesson is correct; this matter should indeed be considered carefully."

"Okay, let's go see what Xu Jiawei is up to."

The two walked towards the exit of the Sea God Pavilion, but no one noticed that Xuanzi, Tang Ya, and Ma Xiaotao's fingers twitched unconsciously...
