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

Wu Feng and Nanmen Yun'er reacted differently. Wu Feng, who appeared well-behaved and calm standing next to Ning Tian, ​​had her lips tightly pursed, clearly indicating that her inner emotions were not at peace.

That was the pain of wanting to possess Ning Tian exclusively but being powerless to do so. Moreover, the outstanding Yu Tianhuang had completely crushed her spirit.

However, a strange light flickered in Nanmen Yun'er's dark green eyes.

Originally, it would have been difficult for her to get into Shrek Academy's inner court with her talent. However, fortunately, her Jade Bird, which was just above the advanced level of martial soul, underwent a beneficial mutation and became a top-tier agility-attack type martial soul. She was even valued by Elder Song of the Sea God Pavilion.

All of this is related to Yu Tianhuang's contact.

Because of Xu Zihuang's appearance, the fates of many people at Shrek Academy have been rewritten compared to his memories of his previous life.

This is because everyone's fate has a different weight. Some people exhaust themselves but can't make a dent, while others can turn the world upside down with a single wrong decision.

All signs indicate that he is the chosen one of this era.

……

Five days later, Xu Zihuang finished his cultivation. He gradually began to sense the strangeness of the soul core between his eyebrows.

Now, when he meditates, he can immerse his consciousness in his soul core. In this way, his consciousness can linger within it for a long time, but only a few days often pass in the outside world.

In other words, he only needs to spend a few days to gain insights that others gain through months of meditation. Although this doesn't increase his cultivation speed, it greatly enhances his comprehension.

"A three-attribute soul core, primarily based on spiritual attributes, with temporal and spatial attributes as secondary attributes." With a flash of golden light, Xu Zihuang, who had been teleported to the first-floor lobby of the Sea God Pavilion by the Golden Tree, looked thoughtful.

Both Elder Mu and Elder Xuan were able to detect the special nature of his soul core, so it was impossible for him, as the holder, not to know this.

On the contrary, his connection with this soul core was extremely close. After five days of secluded cultivation, he had completely figured out its mysteries.

The first step is to immerse one's consciousness in the soul core, indirectly enhancing one's comprehension abilities. Essentially, this ability slows down the flow of time in the world one's consciousness inhabits.

Another ability is the control over spatial power.

However, both of these abilities are currently confined to his soul core. In other words, he cannot currently use these abilities on the outside world. And all of this is related to his Golden Eye Martial Soul.

Moreover, he had a strong premonition that when he broke through to level 70 and possessed the ability of a Martial Soul True Body, his Golden Eye Martial Soul would be able to fully unleash its potential.

Standing before Xu Zihuang, Elder Xuan, having inherited the position of Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion, had become slightly more mindful of his image than before. However, this was only relative; it wasn't easy for the old man to change his habits in a short period of time.

Seeing that Xu Zihuang had finished his cultivation so quickly, he couldn't help but frown and ask with concern.

"Tianhuang, have you encountered any problems during your cultivation?"

"No, Elder Xuan, everything went smoothly. The reason I finished my cultivation so quickly is related to my soul core."

Xu Zihuang looked up at Elder Xuan, shook his head solemnly, and then told Elder Xuan the secret of his soul core without reservation.

Elder Xuan listened silently to Xu Zihuang's story, his expression growing increasingly surprised, before finally letting out a sigh.

"Tianhuang, your feeling is correct. I had a conversation with Elder Mu before, and your Golden Eye Martial Soul is indeed a divinely favored Martial Soul. Putting aside the time attribute for now, the spatial attribute that comes with the Golden Eye gives you spatial control capabilities that are no weaker than those of a Super Douluo. Although it can only be applied to your body now, it will make it much easier for you to condense your second or even third Soul Core in the future. The most difficult thing in condensing a Soul Core is maintaining its stability, and I believe you have felt that as well. And this is actually the easiest thing for you to control."

"Old Mu's judgment is as good as ever."

At this point, Elder Xuan revealed a genuinely gratified smile.

"You don't need to go back to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. Just stay at the academy and cultivate in peace during this time. I'm really looking forward to seeing the expressions of the students and teachers from the participating academies when they see your 100,000-year sixth soul ring at the next All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament."

"By the way, Lin'er and Duoduo have already completed the replication of the Level 9 fixed-position soul-guided cannon blueprints you brought back. I'll give them to you anyway." As he spoke, Elder Xuan took out a thick stack of blueprints from his storage soul-guided device and handed them to Xu Zihuang.

Xu Zihuang did not refuse and put it away. Then he also handed over a token with a golden toad pattern to Elder Xuan.

"Elder Xuan, please also pass this token on to the Red Dust Hall Master for me."

"Jing Hongchen is really generous to win you over."

Looking at the golden toad pattern on the token and the two elegant characters 'Red Dust' on the back, Elder Xuan smiled somewhat sarcastically, then waved to Xu Zihuang with a smile.

"If you have any questions about your cultivation later, come find me. Alright, go ahead. It's been two years, it's time to get together with your friends. While you're at it, please give that silly boy Beibei some advice."

Now, Elder Xuan could somewhat empathize with Elder Mu's state of mind back then. To be able to leave peacefully, watching Shrek Academy produce so many talented young people, and to have a successor as gifted as Yu Tianhuang, was perhaps a blessing in disguise.

Besides, Elder Mu didn't really leave.

"Yes, Elder Xuan," Xu Zihuang replied respectfully. Then, under Elder Xuan's watchful gaze, he turned and left the main hall of the Sea God Pavilion. Just as Elder Xuan had said, he had no intention of returning to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

He has accumulated sufficient knowledge at the Soul Master level, as well as in Soul Power cultivation. His primary task now is to integrate and master these skills.

He decided to stay at Shrek Academy for a while before venturing out to gain experience. His soul power cultivation had improved too rapidly in recent years, and the fusion of the soul ring and soul bone of the 100,000-year-old pure mental-type Evil Eye Tyrant had given him four more skills. To master these abilities in a short time, practical combat was the simplest and most effective method.

At the same time, he took this opportunity to return to Moon Pivot Island, hand over the blueprints to his subordinates, and reunite with Ye Guyi.

Xu Zihuang lightly touched the edge of the cliff in front of the Sea God Pavilion with his toes, and in the next instant, he appeared above the Sea God Pavilion. A trace of purple-gold light flashed in his deep purple eyes, and his tangible spiritual power instantly spread, and images of the entire Sea God Island and even parts of Shrek Academy appeared in his mind.

Within the confines of Seagod Island, every minute detail can be clearly seen. This is far more effective than any so-called spiritual detection soul skill. Only the Seagod Pavilion is protected by a layer of golden light, obscuring its view—that is the power of the Golden Tree.

This is the power of spiritual strength in a tangible and substantial realm.

Because he opened up a second sea of ​​consciousness, Xu Zihuang's total spiritual power doubled.

Although his mental strength is only at the initial stage of the tangible and tangible realm, the range of his external perception has reached an astonishing thirty kilometers. While he is still far behind peak mental strength experts like the Evil Eye Tyrant, who can sweep across hundreds of kilometers with a single thought, his potential is much greater.

It can be said that he already possesses the prototype of a future top powerhouse.

Dark red crystal mirrors solidified beneath his feet as Xu Zihuang swiftly flew through the air towards the female students' dormitory area on the western side of Poseidon Island.

It was early morning. The rising sun climbed above the eastern horizon of Poseidon Lake. A halo of light swirled around Xu Zihuang, bathing him in a golden glow. His already ethereal气质, combined with his deep, star-like eyes, made him appear like a celestial being descended to earth.

In the master bedroom on the second floor of a wooden pavilion built along the lake on the west side of Poseidon Island, Ning Tian had just finished a night of meditation. Unlike Wu Feng, she only felt happy and proud of Yu Tianhuang's excellence. But conversely, the more outstanding Yu Tianhuang was, the heavier the pressure in her heart became.

She didn't want to be without the right to stand beside Yu Tianhuang in the future, so she never slacked off in her cultivation for the past two years.

In fact, compared to Wu Feng, a Soul Master who was easier to improve his cultivation, she was even ahead in Soul Power level.

Ning Tian, ​​dressed in light and soft pajamas, looked up at the rising sun in the east and began to wash up as usual.

But just as she stepped out of the bathroom, a young man with a warm smile suddenly appeared in her line of sight. The young man leaned slightly against the wooden railing of the balcony, with the clear, rippling waters of Lake Poseidon behind him.

Ning Tian, ​​disregarding the need to comb his long, platinum-blonde hair, walked quickly over with tender eyes.

Xu Zihuang, understanding the gesture, opened his arms and pulled Ning Tian into his embrace. The thin silk pajamas couldn't block out Ning Tian's warmth and faint fragrance.

Two years of suppressed longing and tender feelings erupted in Ning Tian's heart. He gently placed his hands on Xu Zihuang's shoulders and naturally stood on tiptoe.

No words were needed; all actions stemmed from heartfelt emotions, and also served to comfort Xu Zihuang.

In Ning Tian's view, Master Mu had taught Yu Tianhuang for many years, and Yu Tianhuang must be feeling bad about Master Mu's departure.

Their hair and breaths mingled, as if they were about to become one. Bathed in the morning sun, light and shadow overlapped.

"Ning—" A clear voice rang out at the doorway. Before the owner of the voice could finish the first word, he froze on the spot.

The visitor was none other than Wu Feng.

Looking at the two people before her, an indescribable bitterness welled up in her heart, and her chest tightened. Despair, helplessness, anger—a complex mix of emotions mingled together.

"Hmm—" After a long while, Ning Tian leaned against Xu Zihuang's chest, his chest rising and falling slightly, trying to calm himself down. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Wu Feng standing at the door with a blank look in his eyes.

"Feng Mei?"

Xu Zihuang followed Ning Tian's gaze, his expression somewhat subtle. With his tangible and substantial spiritual power, he had actually detected Wu Feng's arrival long ago.

Ning Tian forced himself to remain calm and spoke to Wu Feng.

"Fengmei, you go ahead. You don't need to wait for me today."

After being thoroughly observed by Wu Feng, her expression inevitably became somewhat unnatural.

"Hmm." Wu Feng responded silently, then quickly left the place, his face pale.

The morning sun shone on Lake Poseidon, making its surface shimmer. This mirrored Ning Tian's state of mind. Especially considering her behavior just now, he realized it had been quite unladylike.

Xu Zihuang smiled and took Ning Tian's hand.

"Let's go, it's been two years. Let's find Senior Brother Bei and Senior Sister Xiaoya and have a meal together in the cafeteria, and have a good chat."

Chapter 292 The Mirror Illusion: The Skull of Wisdom Reminiscing

Xu Zihuang turned around, rested his hands on the wooden fence, and gazed into the distance.

Ning Tian emerged from the room again, now dressed in an elegant yet luxurious pure white long dress, perfect for early summer.

Shrek Academy does not restrict the clothing of its inner court disciples; they are only required to wear the red school uniform exclusive to inner court disciples on certain formal occasions.

Ning Tian walked slowly to Xu Zihuang's side, holding a sandalwood comb in his right hand, combing his long platinum blonde hair.

Unlike Ye Guyi's smooth, pure gold hair, Ning Tian's hair was slightly curled at the front, giving it a unique and charming appeal.

"Let me do it." Xu Zihuang smiled and took Ning Tian's right hand.

Ning Tian was taken aback at first, but then quickly reacted, smiled at Xu Zihuang, and released his hand with tenderness.

The deep purple wooden comb has a very fine texture, feels hard and tough to the touch, and has a faint woody scent.

Xu Zihuang held the wooden comb and gently ran it through Ning Tian's hair.

The two faced Poseidon Lake, their ears filled with the vibrant sounds of insects and birds chirping on Poseidon Island. They both felt an profound sense of peace. Sometimes, physical contact is more direct than words.

Ning Tian naturally rested her fragrant shoulder on Xu Zihuang's chest, glancing sideways at Xu Zihuang's deep eyes, which were as vast as the starry sky and made her dizzy. She couldn't help but slightly part her red lips.

"Tianhuang, have you made another breakthrough in your spiritual power?"

Compared to the night Elder Mu left, Xu Zihuang's eyes were much more subdued today. But Ning Tian felt that Yu Tianhuang had become even more unfathomable.

"It's not that easy to make continuous breakthroughs in the spiritual realm." Xu Zihuang chuckled and shook his head.

"It's just that I've consolidated and become familiar with my realm through these five days of secluded cultivation. Ning Tian, ​​on the other hand, your soul power cultivation has improved quite a bit in the past two years."

With his current level of tangible and substantial spiritual power, he could immediately discern Ning Tian's specific soul power cultivation.

When Ning Tian left Shrek Academy, his soul power had just broken through to level 43. Now, in less than two years, he has broken through eleven levels, reaching level 54. Among Soul Masters, especially support-type Soul Masters, such a cultivation speed is indeed somewhat unbelievable.

"Actually, it's because after entering the inner courtyard, the deep meditation I had in the underground world of the Sea God Pavilion directly raised my soul power cultivation by three levels. Moreover, I later fused with a head soul bone that further enhanced my abilities," Ning Tianjiao said frankly, her smile unwavering.

"Speaking of which, the head soul bone I fused with is somewhat related to the Azure Mirror you gave me. My head soul bone is called the Mirror Illusion Wisdom Skull, which came from a Mirror Shadow Beast with 70,000 years of cultivation."

"A Mirror Image Beast with 70,000 years of cultivation?" Upon hearing this, Xu Zihuang raised an eyebrow in surprise. The power of the Mirror Image Beast was undeniable; it was undoubtedly a top-tier soul beast. Ning Tian's acquisition of such a superior soul bone was truly a stroke of great fortune.

After all, the Mirror Beast was already on the verge of extinction ten thousand years ago.

Ning Tian nodded and explained, "My great-grandfather knew about the Azure Mirror you designed. When he was young, he happened to encounter several Mirror Beasts with cultivation levels of over ten thousand years in the far north, so he made a special trip there. He personally hunted down that Mirror Beast with a cultivation level of seventy thousand years, and luckily obtained that Soul Bone from it. By the way, I deliberately kept the scale between your eyebrows for you. If you need it, I'll have someone send it to you."

The scale between the eyebrows of the Mirror Shadow Beast, with its 70,000-year cultivation, is a material of even higher value and use than the 30,000-year-old diamond mammoth tusk in his possession. It could be used to craft top-tier level eight soul tools, or even level nine soul tools.

"Let's talk about that later. Making an eighth-level soul tool is still a bit difficult for me right now." As he spoke, Xu Zihuang had already tidied up Ning Tian's long platinum blonde hair.

"Let's go see Senior Xiaoya and the others now. I just communicated with them using my mental powers. They're waiting for us at the cafeteria entrance."
