The Glory of the Sun and Moon in the Peerless Tang Sect

Although Elder Xuan's cultivation was slightly weaker than his, the difference was not significant. He still had some reservations about Elder Xuan; otherwise, given the domineering and arrogant style of their Body Sect, they wouldn't have been entangled with Elder Xuan here for so long.

However, Yu Tianhuang is far too important to their Body Sect.

The fact that a Soul Master level cultivator could complete the second awakening of a Gold-level Body Martial Soul is unprecedented in the history of their Body Sect.

Moreover, Yu Tianhuang possesses twin martial souls. And a second martial soul of comparable quality to his original martial soul cannot simply be a Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex. After learning various details about Yu Tianhuang from Lang Ya and Yu Tao, Du Busi and the sect elders unanimously deduced that Yu Tianhuang's second martial soul likely possessed the attribute of Ultimate Lightning. Even if it wasn't Ultimate Lightning, it must have some other extraordinary characteristics.

A genius of this caliber is enough to make him disregard everything.

"If Xuanzi can't stop you, then what about me?" Just then, a gentle voice quietly rang out. Immediately afterwards, a soft golden halo was released from Shrek Academy below, or more precisely, from the Sea God Pavilion.

The aura of light spread into the air, seemingly slowly but actually very quickly. Under the shroud of this aura of light, the spatial rifts around Elder Xuan and Poison Undying were rapidly closing.

The Body Sect expert who was about to rush into Shrek Academy was also thrown back by the gentle golden light, but he was unharmed.

The entire Shrek City was enveloped in golden light, appearing from a distance like a city of gold. The oppressive aura emanating from Elder Xuan and Poison Undying in the sky dissipated as a result.

He had previously thought he was certain he wouldn't die from Elder Xuan's poison, but his expression suddenly changed.

"The Light of the Sea God? How is that possible?! How can someone at Shrek Academy still be able to use the Light of the Sea God?"

"Undying, it's been many years. It seems you've forgotten me." Old Master Mu's kind voice rang out again, but it only reached the ears of Poison Undying.

As Du Bu Si looked down at the Sea God Pavilion, which was radiating brilliant golden light, he seemed to have thought of something, and a few beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"You, you're the Dragon God? How is that possible? Didn't you already..."

"Is he already dead?" Old Mu smiled calmly.

"If I die, will you continue to bully Shrek Academy like this?"

Elder Mu's words struck Poison Undying like a heavy hammer. With a flash of golden light, the hundred-meter giant that Poison Undying had transformed into suddenly shrank by several meters, and a dense dark green light also emanated from it.

"I have already spoken with Yu Tianhuang of this academy, and he said he has no plans to join a sect at the moment and is willing to stay in the academy. Please leave now; I will not hold today's matter against you. But if there is a next time, or if you use other means to scheme against me, a junior, then don't blame me for personally going to the Body Sect to demand an explanation."

Poison Undying's expression changed repeatedly.

Both are descendants of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, so it's not wrong to say that Yu Tianhuang is his descendant.

Old Master Mu's words were already quite strong.

It would be fine if there was only Xuanzi, but with the addition of the Dragon God Douluo, he really didn't have much confidence.

Taking a deep breath, Du Busi said with a grim expression, "Dragon God Douluo, for your sake, we'll let this matter drop. But we're not going to do things in secret. Our Body Sect will not give up on this child. As long as he's in Shrek Academy, I won't touch him. But once he leaves Shrek Academy, we'll each have to rely on our own abilities."

"Dragon God, even if you are still alive, I don't believe my elder brother didn't leave something on you. I am no match for you, but it won't be so easy for you to kill me. You should know that at our age, we are not far from our end. You are even older than me, and I don't believe you can stay by his side forever."

After saying this, the intense dark green light emanating from Poison Undying's body seemed to ignite, melting a void into the golden light of the sea god. He then leaped out and suddenly waved his hand.

"Those belonging to the Body Sect, withdraw."

More than thirty figures quickly fled into the distance, and the light of the Sea God that had enveloped the entire Shrek City gradually receded, returning to the Sea God Pavilion.

Elder Xuan, a group of elders from the Sea God Pavilion, and the two deans of the Martial Soul Department and the Soul Guidance Department all arrived gracefully and landed on the open ground in front of the Sea God Pavilion.

They all looked at Yu Tianhuang with strange eyes. If Elder Mu hadn't intervened and made Du Busi back down, a great battle would likely have been unavoidable. And all of this stemmed from this young man who was only at the Soul Sect level.

Elder Mu's voice drifted out from inside the Sea God Pavilion.

"Shao Zhe, go and calm the people in the city. Everyone else, disperse. Yu Tianhuang, Ning Tian, ​​you two come in."

"Yes, teacher." Yan Shaozhe replied respectfully and immediately flew away. Shrek City was the territory of Shrek Academy, and such a thing did indeed require someone to step forward and take charge.

The elders all withdrew. However, Elder Xuan, still somewhat depressed due to being suppressed by the poison, took a swig of wine.

At this moment, only Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian remained outside the Sea God Pavilion.

Xu Zihuang nodded to Ning Tian, ​​and then they walked together into the main hall on the first floor of the Sea God Pavilion.

Old Mu lay at one end of the long table, still looking frail and old.

The two of them bowed respectfully to Elder Mu at the same time.

"Elder Mu."

Elder Mu smiled slightly, and a soft golden light shone forth, pointing to a room on the first floor of the Sea God Pavilion.

"Go, go to that room and fuse with that piece of the Light-Generating Right Arm Bone."

"Yes, Elder Mu."

Ning Tianxin understood and started walking. She knew that Elder Mu probably had something he wanted to say to Yu Tianhuang alone.

Chapter 214 The Ultimate Individual Soldier Plan and Enlightenment

Old Mu raised a hand and smiled, "Help me up."

Xu Zihuang quickly stepped forward and helped Old Mu up.

It wouldn't be to say he had any deep feelings for Elder Mu, but this respect didn't seem feigned. It was pure respect for a strong person.

The words Old Mu spoke to him during the day had served as a wake-up call for him. If a person loses their sincerity, no matter how perfectly they pretend, there will eventually be a crack. Therefore, now he always invests some genuine emotion when interacting with others.

Old Mu slowly got up, his back still hunched over at nearly a ninety-degree angle, which made people feel heartbroken.

His arms were thin, warm to the touch, yet bony and stiff. He truly looked like an ordinary old man nearing the end of his life.

Those eyes, filled with weariness, gazed at Xu Zihuang, and she chuckled softly.

“I’m not lying here to show off. I got injured when I was young and I’ve never been able to straighten my back since. They felt sorry for me, so they prepared this recliner for me.”

As Elder Mu spoke, he slowly walked towards the exit of the Sea God Pavilion, while Xu Zihuang simply supported Elder Mu and listened quietly to his story.

The Sea God Pavilion was built atop a mountain hundreds of meters high. With the battle between Elder Xuan and Poison Immortal over, the starlight was revealed once more. The moonlight, starlight, and the mist on the surface of the nearby Sea God Lake blended together, creating a hazy yet tranquil beauty.

Elder Mu smiled gently and said, "Tianhuang, may I call you that?"

“You are my elder, of course you can,” Xu Zihuang replied respectfully.

Old Master Mu's gaze softened further.

"Have you gained any insights from the battle between Xuanzi and Du Busi?"

"Just now, the black holes around Elder Xuan and the others seemed to be compressing an extremely large amount of soul power. Elder Mu, the fact that Elder Xuan and the others were able to unleash such powerful combat strength must be related to this, right?" In front of Elder Mu, Xu Zihuang dared not hide anything any longer and spoke of what he had seen and some of his insights. Moreover, these were things that had been puzzling him as well.

Upon hearing Xu Zihuang's words, even with Elder Mu's experience and temperament, a sense of surprise and doubt arose in his heart. He gazed at Xu Zihuang's clear, deep purple eyes for a long time, then let out a soft sigh.

"Tianhuang, your talent is even better than I imagined. I might as well tell you that Xuanzi and Du Busi are using the power of space. For a Soul Master to break through from level 98 to level 99 Limit Douluo, they must have a certain level of control over the power of space. I believe that with your talent, you will definitely go through this stage in the future."

"What Du Bu Si said earlier is correct. The academy does indeed have its own selfish motives. Your talent is unique in the history of Soul Masters. The Body Sect wants to take you away, and the academy also wants you to stay."

Xu Zihuang gently shook his head.

"Elder Mu, I'm sorry for causing trouble for the academy because of my situation. Compared to joining the Body Sect, I still prefer to stay at the academy. I've made many classmates and teachers here. It was here that I experienced the feeling of trusting others and being trusted for the first time. I really like the atmosphere at the academy."

When he said those words, he only had He Caitou on his mind. He truly trusted He Caitou, and He Caitou trusted him in return.

To outsiders, his words seemed entirely heartfelt, and the naturalness and sincerity in his eyes were even more genuine than in his previous responses.

"Good child. I am very satisfied with your answer." Old Master Mu's eyes were full of satisfaction.

"If you wish to stay at the academy, the academy will do its utmost to nurture you. Our Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department has a program called 'Ultimate Individual Soldier.' The so-called Ultimate Individual Soldier is someone who single-handedly changes the course of a local war, requiring the ability to use and create various soul tools, and expertise in stealth, infiltration, sabotage, and so on. Lin'er and Duo Duo both agree that you are the best candidate to realize this plan. If you are willing, you will study alongside He Caitou, and all the resources of the Soul Guidance Department will be directed towards the two of you. If you don't want to waste too much energy on soul tools and such, you can also choose to stay at the Sea God Pavilion, where I will personally guide your cultivation in the future."

Xu Zihuang nodded without hesitation.

"Elder Mu, I am willing to undertake this Extreme Individual Soldier Project. I have never had any aversion to soul tools. Soul tools are a product of the times. The most suitable thing for this era should be the combination of soul masters and soul tools."

"It's good that you have such thoughts." Old Mu smiled slightly, then pondered for a moment before speaking.

"I'll give you a day to rest. The day after tomorrow morning, you'll report to the Soul Guidance Department. Lin'er and Duo Duo will conduct some tests on you and He Caitou to tailor your subsequent training. After the training plan is finalized, it will be a seven-day cycle. You'll study at the Soul Guidance Department for three days, then return here to train with me for three days. On the last day, Wang Yan will provide you with guidance on martial soul theory. From now on, you'll live in the Sea God Pavilion. You don't need to go to the outer academy for now; you only need to participate in the annual promotion assessment."

Xu Zihuang understood; he knew that Elder Mu was going to do everything he could to cultivate him.

"Yes, Elder Mu."

Xu Zihuang then chatted with Elder Mu for a long time, and finally personally escorted Elder Mu back to his room. Elder Mu treated him very kindly, truly regarding him as a close junior.

The last room on the third floor of the Sea God Pavilion.

The room wasn't large, about thirty square meters. It contained only a simple wooden table, chairs, bed, and a bookshelf that took up one wall. That was all the simple decoration. Through the window, one could see the entire panorama of Poseidon Island.

Xu Zihuang bowed deeply to Elder Mu before leaving the room and gently closing the wooden door behind him.

Old Master Mu kept his gaze on Xu Zihuang with a gentle look.

Fortunately, he met the exceptionally talented Yu Tianhuang during his lifetime, but unfortunately, his current physical condition can only support him for another five to ten years.

"Time waits for no one. War is inevitable. With great power comes great responsibility. My child, you don't have much time left."

Old Master Mu sighed inwardly.

Given twenty years, he was even confident he could train Yu Tianhuang into a new generation of Limit Douluo. A Limit Douluo with twin martial souls and an ultimate martial soul—how powerful would that be?

From Elder Mu's perspective, once war breaks out, Yu Tianhuang, who originally belonged to one of the three great empires of Douluo Continent, would naturally fight for the Douluo Continent and resist the invasion of the Sun Moon Empire. This is a deeply ingrained concept.

It is precisely for this reason that the people originally from the Douluo Continent have never recognized the Sun Moon Empire, regarding it as a foreign race.

After leaving Elder Mu's room, Xu Zihuang walked up the stairs inside the Sea God Pavilion to the first floor and arrived at Ning Tian's room.

The light fed back, transforming the bone in Ning Tian's right arm into specks of green-gold light and swirling energy, making her delicate skin appear even whiter. Her shoulder-length platinum-gold hair, with its slightly curled tips, swayed gently with each wave of soul power.

Under the influence of this light-reflecting bone in his right arm, Ning Tian felt a refreshing cleansing sensation throughout his body, making one irresistibly drawn to it.

Although Xu Zihuang had just finished more than a month of meditation, his body was nourished by ample light and life force at the location of the golden tree's roots. Therefore, he didn't need to rush to eat to replenish his nutrients.

So he simply sat down cross-legged opposite Ning Tian and quietly stayed by her side.

Of course, he hadn't forgotten Elder Mu's presence, and a subtle but genuine tenderness appeared in his gaze as he looked at Ning Tian. Everything he had shown in the past had been a facade, which was why Elder Mu had discovered his pretense. Therefore, he now decided to invest some emotion, to truly immerse himself in the character of Yu Tianhuang, or rather, in the character of Yu Tianhuang that Elder Mu believed in and wanted to see.

The ultimate skill in disguise is to make yourself believe it's real. As long as it brings revenge and fulfills your ambitions, it's all worthwhile.

As Ning Tian fused with the light-returning bone in his right arm, time flew by.

The moon sets and the sun rises; the night has passed just like that.

The room they were in was about the same size as Elder Mu's room, but it lacked furniture like wooden tables and chairs. The floor was covered only with futons made from the hides of various spirit beasts. This room was clearly a meditation chamber.

A ray of morning sun streaked across the eastern horizon, dazzling yet with an almost ethereal quality. Outside the window lay Poseidon Island, a place of birdsong and fragrant flowers, brimming with vibrant energy.

The warm sunlight streamed through the window and fell on Ning Tian's platinum blonde hair. At that moment, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she opened her clear, watery blue eyes.

Xu Zihuang met her gaze with tenderness, then stood up and took her hand, which was resting on her skirt, and pulled her up from the futon.

"How effective is that piece of light-returning bone in my right arm?"

"Although I haven't used it yet, I can feel that this soul bone is very suitable for me. Teacher Wang Yan is right, the effect of that Light Feedback Soul Skill is indeed very good." Ning Tian smiled sweetly, and a hint of joy appeared in her beautiful eyes, even though she was usually calm and composed.
