Douluo Continent: The Myriad Body of Truth and Falsehood

Chapter 63 Effect Before Cause

Star Luo Empire

Boundary Gate

Sui Yuan received a message from Xiong Jun and appeared here late at night, a hint of curiosity in his eyes as he looked at the soul corpse kneeling on one knee in the main hall.

"Greetings, my Lord's Guardian!" the corpse-like man with long brown hair shouted.

Sui Yuan glanced at Xiong Jun standing to the side and asked curiously, "The Corpse of Causality and Law?"

"Yes, thanks to the protection of my Lord, I have been granted this supernatural power."

Sui Yuan chuckled coldly, casually waving his hand. The egoless Dharma Form unleashed a bewildering shadow that landed inside the hall. "Let's test your supernatural powers."

"Yes, ma'am."

As the words fell, the figure suddenly awoke, a wave of panic washing over him. At the Soul King level, five Soul Rings—yellow, purple, and black—lit up. His face still held the lingering fear of Sui Yuan. Without uttering a word, he immediately activated his Martial Soul and rushed out of the hall.

The corpse flashed and blocked the man's path, its blood-red armor suggesting it had activated its martial spirit.

"Get out of my way!" the figure shouted, his eyes turning red. All he wanted now was to escape the mysterious man wearing the bronze mask; he was too terrifying.

So, he casually activated his fifth soul skill, and beams of crimson light struck the armor of the evil corpse, raising clouds of dust before dissipating.

"A divine gift, but calamity is coming!"

The next moment, the cause-and-effect correction arrived.

The frantically fleeing figure had already escaped the palace gates and was about to burst into the outside world. But suddenly, a dark cloud rose above his head, the cloud was pitch black, and there were faint crackling sounds of electricity.

Long!

A muffled thunderclap resounded, and a bolt of lightning struck from a small cloud, instantly turning the figure into a blackened charcoal and causing him to perish on the spot.

When the calamity arrives, anyone in the vicinity who harbors hostility towards the calamity will suffer the calamity. There are even fluctuations of causality on that blood-red armor. Any attack will cause the causal reality to be corrected, resulting in a similar retaliation.

That thunderclap just now was just like that.

The correction of causal reality is not directly caused by the evil corpse, but rather determined by the law of causality. The existence of the law of causality can be felt more directly from his supernatural powers.

"I see." Sui Yuan murmured, clapping his hands in delight. "Impressive divine power. You should only be at the Soul Emperor level now, right?"

"Yes, sir."

"I'll give you eight years. After eight years, you can cultivate to the level of a Title Douluo. During that time, you can do whatever you want."

"Thank you, sir!" The corpse bowed in gratitude and then vanished from the capital.

Xiong Jun asked in confusion, "My lord, is this the Karma Martial Soul?"

"Hmm, it's a rather powerful ability, utilizing the law of causality for judgment." As he spoke, Sui Yuan looked into the distance, seemingly having sorted out his thoughts, and smiled, "Originally, I thought the causal punishment suffered by Di Tian and the Silver Dragon King was due to the future boss personally intervening in the past, but now it seems that the law of causality already existed, the effect precedes the cause~~~"

The principle of "effect before cause" means to first address the result and then explain the cause.

Sui Yuan already understood: "The causal laws, the resurrection of soul corpses, the transformation of martial souls, and so on that exist in Douluo Continent now are all results, and the reasons that need to be added later are probably the purpose of the causal war."

"But how many battles of cause and effect would it take to produce such a result? Once is certainly not enough, two? Three?"

"Ha, it really seems endless~~"

Thinking of this, Suiyuan recalled the will passed down by the boss when the universe was born. This universe contains a cosmic will. If it expands without end, allowing the plague to spread throughout the universe and bind all life, it will definitely clash with this cosmic will.

Sui Yuan banished the thoughts from his mind, looked at Xiong Jun again, and asked, "How's the investigation going regarding the matter I entrusted to you?"

Xiong Jun reported: "Ling Zichen, the director of the Tang Sect's Soul Guidance Artillery Research Center, is extremely obsessed with the research of soul guidance artillery. It is said that she likes explosions. Her whereabouts are extremely closely guarded and she is under the highest level of protection of the Tang Sect. I cannot confirm whether she is currently at the Tang Sect branch in the Star Luo Empire."

"What a pity. I was planning to orchestrate a bombing of the Tang Clan's Xingluo branch to kill this woman. This is a bit difficult now, but it doesn't matter. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

"My lord, as far as I know, this woman doesn't seem to have anything special about her, does she? Why go and kill her? In my opinion, it would be more appropriate for us to pay the price and kill Tang Wulin instead."

Sui Yuan sighed softly, "Lord Xiong, future victories are built upon the accumulation of small advantages we have now."

"Yes, sir."

Suiyuan will absolutely not allow this woman to touch the level 12 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell. Even if it doesn't cause too much trouble for Wanye, Suiyuan must nip any potential future opportunities in the bud.

怪物学院

Sui Yuan reverted to his old form, and under Enci's guidance, he looked at the eight Heavenly Kings of Monster Academy bowing respectfully before him. Today was their opportunity. The vice-principal was a newcomer, and one of them could become his disciple, thus following the teachings of a level 98 Super Douluo.

"Children, is any of you willing?" Grace asked kindly, inquiring of the crowd.

This matter had already been secretly discussed, and Dai Yueyan had recently been summoned by her father, who specifically instructed her on the matter of becoming his disciple. As the second of the Eight Heavenly Kings, she immediately stepped forward and respectfully bowed to Sui Yuan: "Vice Dean, I wish to become your disciple!"

"Hehe, Brother Sui, what do you think?" Enci said with a smile.

The latest novel is first published here!

"Dean, why do you have to do this? You know that this young friend is the fourth prince of the Star Luo Empire, and he has the potential to inherit the current royal family and become the next Star Luo emperor. Wouldn't that be repeating your path? You don't want me to retire to the mountains anymore, do you?" Sui Yuan chuckled helplessly.

"That's not quite right! Please take this time to carefully instruct the Fourth Prince. Whether he stays or leaves in the future is entirely up to him. Yueyan, why haven't you come to see your teacher yet?"

Dai Yueyan immediately performed the formal apprenticeship ceremony, bowing deeply to Sui Yuan with utmost solemnity.

"Hehe~~ Good child, get up quickly. Since you have become my disciple, I will naturally not hold back my skills. In the future, please set aside some time to come to my office, and I will personally guide you."

"Thank you, teacher!" Dai Yueyan said with deep gratitude.

"Alright, you can all leave now."

After everyone left, Saint Dragon Douluo Enci was quite satisfied with the master and disciple pair, Suiyuan and Dai Yueyan. The Fourth Prince's talent was no less than that of the current emperor. If he could successfully inherit the throne, the Star Luo Empire could prosper for at least another few hundred years!

In the midst of relief, kindness also fades away.

Only Sui Yuan and Dai Yueyan remained in the vice dean's office.

"My disciple, today I will personally give you your first lesson." Sui Yuan surveyed the surroundings, his spiritual power enveloping the entire room to ensure that no one could detect what was about to happen.

"Teacher, I'm all ready!" Dai Yueyan was still quite excited. As a teacher, a level 98 Super Douluo would definitely be generous, which might greatly benefit his cultivation.

The next moment, Sui Yuan's large hand slowly landed on Dai Yueyan's head.

"Teacher, what are you doing?"

"Today I will teach you: Do not easily trust others."

The "Selfless Dharma Image" spread out from the vast hand of the year, directly invading Dai Yueyan's mind and taking control of it.
