Douluo Continent: The Myriad Body of Truth and Falsehood

Chapter 71 The Invisible Hand

The disappearance of Master Craftsman Zhenhua is a matter of great importance. The Federation, Tang Sect, Shrek Academy, and Spirit Pagoda are all paying attention to this matter, and have even sent their own people to the scene for investigation.

But without exception, they gained nothing.

The hundreds-of-meters-long Soul-Guided High-Speed ​​Train was blown up, erasing all traces.

Shrek City, Shrek Academy

Poseidon Lake

Shortly after the incident, Zang Xin, the deputy hall master of the Tang Sect's Douluo Hall, personally went to Shrek Academy to discuss important matters with the master of the Sea God Pavilion.

Inside the Sea God Pavilion, Yun Ming and Zang Xin had serious expressions. The series of events that had occurred in recent months were clearly not simple. First, the Tang Sect's secret treasure land was bombed, and all the immortal herbs were destroyed. Then, on the Soul Guidance Train between Heaven Dou City and Shrek City, Zhen Hua, the only divine craftsman on the entire continent, disappeared.

"It's obvious that someone is behind this series of events. Judging from your account, it doesn't seem to be an evil spirit master, but rather related to the future deity." Yun Ming was composed and showed no sign of panic.

Zang Xin frowned and said, "After the incident at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, I rushed there immediately. Several members of that mysterious criminal gang had already fled, leaving only a guy with overwhelming corpse energy and top-notch escape skills who exchanged a few blows with me. Perhaps the thing we were most worried about has already happened."

"A leader has emerged from among the resurrected Nirvana Corpses," Yun Ming declared definitively. "And his strength is considerable. The other resurrected Nirvana Corpses are also formidable; perhaps there are evil soul masters who have already died, or perhaps there are Limit Douluo who have already died."

Zang Xin nodded helplessly; this was also something he had been thinking about and worrying about. He sighed, "The information about the Soul Corpses is very secretive; we still don't know how powerful the Nirvana Corpses have become."

"Ever since that prophetic dream spread, strange things have been happening one after another. First, there was the change of the martial spirit and the resurrection of the dead. Then, important treasure lands were attacked for no reason, causing us heavy losses. I'm afraid this series of events is heading towards the future of Wanye."

"Those who attain Nirvana all become servants of all deeds."

Yun Ming stood up, his gaze deep and unfathomable, piercing through the Sea God Pavilion to look into the distance. He then sighed, finally revealing a hint of worry: "Ever since I learned about that future god and the Douluo transformation, I have stopped guarding Shrek Academy and have been traveling across the continent from time to time. Evil Soul Masters have been suppressed by us for thousands of years, but recently they have resurfaced and are showing signs of rising again."

"On my way to find a disciple, I encountered an evil spirit master slaughtering a village. Half of the 196 people in the village were killed. When I was about to kill him and leave, the person who had already been transformed into a vengeful spirit by the evil spirit master should have died. But as a drop of blood fell, the person was resurrected and became a zombie without will and only acted on instinct."

"The instinct of these zombies is to crave soul power. After absorbing soul power, their cultivation will increase. Although the person whose soul power is absorbed does not lose their life, they lose all their cultivation, their eyes become dull, and they become ordinary people. Even their martial soul is absorbed, and their minds are not yet clear."

Zang Xin understood the essence of the matter, which meant that zombies would be the absolute natural enemy of Soul Masters, like a reordering of the food chain, with Soul Corpses now occupying a position above Soul Masters.

Yun Ming, his eyes gleaming with wisdom, continued, "High-level zombies also possess soul power and have begun to form organizations. They lurk in the shadows, waiting for their chance to strike. They are in the dark, we are in the light. Everyone is waiting for the arrival of the premonition dream; when the abyss invades, the gods will descend."

"At that time, the Abyss, Douluo, and Wanye will form a three-way standoff, and only we ourselves can seize the opportunity."

Yun Ming's far-sightedness surprised Zang Xin slightly; this number one figure in Douluo Continent considered far more than he, the deputy hall master of the Tang Sect's Douluo Hall.

Zang Xin's admiration for this person grew even stronger, and he then tentatively asked, "Is what the Pavilion Master mentioned before true?"

Yun Ming had publicly stated at the Federal Conference that Wanye was also a path to godhood. Zang Xin had naturally heard of this, but he hadn't given it much thought. He had other worries on his mind, and even if becoming a god meant he couldn't be with his beloved, it would all be in vain.

As for the person I love, let's not mention them.

To this, Yun Ming smiled confidently: "Twenty thousand years ago, the Douluo Continent underwent a period of upheaval, with the Spirit Hall plotting to destroy the world. Ancestor Tang San stepped forward, thwarted the Spirit Hall's conspiracy, and achieved the position of Sea God. Ten thousand years ago, the continental plates collided, and the Sun Moon Empire seized the opportunity to rise, attempting to unify the three kingdoms of Douluo with its advanced soul guidance technology. However, it was stopped by Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao, and Spirit Ice Douluo and Dragon Butterfly Douluo achieved godhood and lived happily ever after."

"And after that, ten thousand years passed, and all things changed. Now, just like then, the Douluo Continent will surely produce someone who can turn the tide once again. This person could be you, or it could be me, or it could be all the students of Shrek Academy."

"There are countless people in the current Limit Douluo realm who are stuck at the demigod level. A newly born god might bring us more information about the God Realm and the methods to ascend to godhood!"

Zang Xin was terrified, his face drained of color. He had never imagined that Yun Ming's ambitions were so lofty, so powerful and soaring. His words were extremely inspiring, even making him eager to try them out.

His words also carried a veiled meaning.

Throughout history, going back 20,000 years, those who became gods all came from Shrek Academy, a blessed land that gathers the world's talents.

It can be called a blessed city!

The current changes in all industries also present opportunities.

Zang Xin couldn't help but think, "If I could become a god, could I defy common sense and create a beautiful love story with the Ruthless Douluo?"

I can't even imagine what it would be like to act out a scene where a domineering god falls in love with me.

The latest novel is first published here!

Realizing his thoughts had wandered, Zang Xin snapped back to reality and sighed, "Now that things have come to this, it will be even more difficult to find these zombies. They kidnapped Zhenhua simply to make him forge the four-word battle armor, which shows that their high-level combat power is severely lacking. All we need to do now is to strengthen our vigilance and wait in the dark. They will eventually slip up again."

Yun Ming nodded, ending his sentence there.

The Tang Sect and Shrek Academy are closer than people imagine. They have separated and reunited many times to get to where they are now. Although they are independent, they have learned from the lessons of Huo Yuhao's time and have always been of one mind on important matters, especially when facing the Spirit Pagoda and the Federation.

Their true strength is almost comparable to that of the Temple of War and the Spirit Pagoda.

The most advanced soul guidance technology research on the continent and the most outstanding Shrek Academy students on the entire continent are the foundation of Tang Sect and Shrek Academy's confidence in facing the future.

Those zombies under Wanye's command are hiding in the shadows, but they can only carry out sneak attacks and cannot achieve anything significant. If there is an opportunity, they should be wiped out in one fell swoop. The focus should still be on Wanye in the future.

However, Yun Ming seemed to have a premonition that the person who would soar to great heights in the future would not be him, but rather his newly accepted disciple, who was exceptionally talented and born in a chaotic world, like the two sages of the past.

With a tragic past, he met his childhood sweetheart Na'er by chance in his youth, grew up in Shrek Academy, possessed innate full soul power, was the first causal martial soul on the continent, and could master the Sky-Supporting Spear Intent with just a little effort, making him a 'monster' in Shrek Academy.
