Douluo: Dragon King's Divine Elegy

Chapter 63: The Three Realms Battlefield? A towering ancient tree related to the gods?
The Vast Sea Universe Crystal determines whether Tang Hao, one of Tang San's wings, can be clipped.

Nan Liujing didn't know the current situation of the plane spirit, so he could only take a gamble. He bet that after the sea god's control over the sea was lifted, the plane spirit would be blessed with the original power of the sea and suppress Tang Hao in reverse.

Tang Hao has not yet truly become the master of the plane, so when the sea is unsealed, he can only watch helplessly.

After a lot of thought, Nan Liujing said with a profound look in his eyes, "If Shrek Academy publicly apologizes, some of their pedantic elders will probably be unable to resist taking action."

"The teacher you mentioned has also thought about it." Leng Yaozhu said, "But with Yun Ming and Ya Li keeping them in check, those people from the Sea God Pavilion can't cause any trouble."

Nan Liujing hesitated. He wanted to tell the teacher he was being naive. Yun Ming and Yali were indeed strong, even far superior to the other elders, but a public apology would jeopardize the very foundations of Shrek Academy, and the faith of some Shrek fanatics would likely crumble.

After all, the school motto of the academy is "Don't mess with people, you are a mediocre person." For some elders, it is not even a big mistake for their own students to spend money to offer a reward for someone.

Nan Liujing suddenly became interested. He wanted to see whether some people from Shrek Academy would attack the Spirit Pagoda because of this.

At the same time, he also wanted to see what choices Yun Ming and Yali would make after the two forces started fighting. If they chose to protect their own people, Nan Liujing would have to draw a red X on Yun Ming.

Leng Yaozhu didn't know what her beloved disciple was thinking. She smiled and changed the subject, "It's time to talk about something else."

Nan Liujing came out of his thoughts and looked at the teacher with some confusion.

"Do you recognize this martial soul?" Leng Yaozhu clapped her jade hands lightly, and a beam of light curtain fell from the ceiling, transforming into a figure hidden in the mist.

Its face was blurry, with only a faint glimpse of scarlet. Its slender body was covered in a layer of armor, and two demonic horns adorned its forehead. Most striking was the pair of purple-black wings behind it, the tips of the feathers gleaming with a deep, dim light. Within a one-meter radius, the dark element became viscous, dimming the light. Invisibly, there were slight ripples of spiritual power.

Nan Liujing was surprised: "Fallen angel?"

"That's right." Leng Yaozhu nodded, and with a gentle wave of her jade hand, the light curtain changed and turned into a huge plane map. Inside, the mountains and rivers were undulating, and the rivers were winding. The overall environment was extremely poor, as if it was the end of the world. There were only a few places where the environment was acceptable, and there were a few human cities scattered around, which were particularly eye-catching in the dim environment.

When Nan Liujing was puzzled, Leng Yaozhu explained: "The plan you see is a corner of the Three Realms battlefield."

"Three Realms Battlefield?" Nan Liujing was sure that this was the first time he had heard of this thing.

Leng Yaozhu narrated carefully: "Two thousand years ago, after the Abyss Plane, our Douluo Plane came into contact with a special alien plane called the Demon Plane, and the Fallen Angel Martial Spirit appeared."

"The Demonic Plane is no different from the Abyssal Plane; both rely on annexing other planes to grow stronger. Back when the Abyss invaded from the Endless Mountains, more than half of the Douluo Plane's top warriors perished before they could barely hold on. Therefore, the emergence of the Demonic Plane has caused deep concern among the Federation's top brass, and they have once again issued a call to assemble all the major spirit master forces to discuss a solution."

"But what no one expected was that although the Demon Plane harbored ill intentions towards us, their primary target wasn't us, but another secret world that had become attached to the Douluo Plane at some point, the so-called Three Realms Battlefield. So in a sense, our encounter with the Demon Plane was pure coincidence."

"Long before we discovered the Demon Plane and this special world, they had been in contact with each other for many years. Later, people from our Douluo Plane joined in, and with the checks and balances between the three parties, they have maintained this relationship to this day. We also took this opportunity to learn a lot about the Demon Plane through some of the natives who are hostile to the Demon Plane in the Three Realms Battlefield. We confirmed that the strongest beings in the Demon Plane are only five Demon Kings. If converted into strength, they are probably at the level of Quasi-Gods. Although they are still difficult to deal with, they are much better than the Abyss."

Nan Liujing sounded a little dazed.

Originally, Time and Space Erming had complained about the Demon Plane, thinking that it was just a small Karami that could be easily destroyed.

Later, he helped Yuan En Yehui to trick a demon king named Alba. After destroying him, Tang Wulin gave most of his energy to the ancient golden tree to make it grow again.

Yuan En Yehui also got rid of the influence of the demon plane, and his fallen angel martial soul was promoted to purple gold bloodline, and the strength of his martial soul increased dramatically as if it had evolved.

But the original time and space did not mention too many stories about the demon plane at all, and as for the so-called three-realm battlefield, it was even impossible to find it. So when Leng Yaozhu narrated this mixed background, Nan Liujing was naturally a little confused.

Noticing Nan Liujing's slightly bewildered expression, Leng Yaozhu softened her tone, "The reason I'm telling you this is mainly because the Three Realms Battlefield won't be far from opening again. It could be as fast as a year, or as slow as five years."

"I will be the leader of the Spirit Pagoda and will be accompanying the selected core disciples."

"Aside from us from the Spirit Pagoda, the others accompanying us include those from Shrek Inner Court, the War God Temple, the Tang Sect, and other geniuses close to the Federation."

Nan Liujing couldn't help but ask, "What kind of treasure is inside?"

Leng Yaozhu said with great energy, "I heard from the natives that in the deepest part of the Three Realms battlefield, there is a towering ancient tree. Legend has it that it was left by the gods, but we have entered it dozens of times over the years and have never seen it with our own eyes."

"Whether the ancient tree is real or fake is unimportant. What's important is that all the forces within the continent have gained unimaginable benefits. The Three Realms battlefield is like a natural treasure trove, where various spiritual creatures grow in a year, comparable to a hundred years in the outside world. The last time it was opened, not to mention other forces, our Spirit Transferring Tower alone harvested over three hundred spiritual herbs over a thousand years old, and over twenty spiritual herbs that were ten thousand years old, not to mention other types of treasures."

Nan Liujing's pupils shrank. One year is equivalent to a hundred years. This is even stronger than the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire.

wrong.

A towering ancient tree left by the gods?
He suddenly caught the highlight.

Leng Yaozhu continued, "With the extinction of land spirit beasts, the life element in the heaven and earth energy has decreased by 20% compared to ancient times. The cultivation of spiritual herbs has become increasingly difficult. Generally speaking, consumption is greater than production. This means that sooner or later, future spirit masters will no longer have powerful resources to draw upon."

"But the reason why spiritual herb income is greater than output in this era is that one of the key factors includes the supply of the Three Realms Battlefield. So you should understand the importance of the Three Realms Battlefield, right?"

Nan Liujing was still puzzled: "Then why are the core disciples going there? Aren't the higher-ups in the tower worried that the core disciples might encounter something unexpected?"

"Good question." Leng Yaozhu chuckled. "This brings us to the peculiarities of the Three Realms battlefield. As long as someone dies within the restricted area, they can be resurrected by the laws of life within, and resurrected outside the restricted area, in those indigenous cities you saw."

A look of surprise appeared in Nan Liujing's eyes.

In this case, wouldn’t it be a replica, or even more powerful, of the Shenglingtai world?

After all, the Soul Ascension Platform can only obtain spiritual power and increase the lifespan of the soul. Even if the guardian is killed, not everyone can obtain the soul bone.

He took the soul bone of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear with the consent of his teacher in his capacity as deputy tower master.

Leng Yaozhu added, "Another reason is that within the Three Realms battlefield restricted area, anyone with a cultivation level above level 70, once dead, will not be resurrected by the Law of Life. Even if one is not afraid of death and insists on entering, they will be surrounded and killed by the monsters in the restricted area. These monsters are not simple. If they were placed on our Douluo Continent, the lowest strength would be comparable to a 70,000-year-old soul beast. No one could survive for more than half an hour."

"As for letting a quasi-god in? I can only say that it will only make your death more uglier, because the laws of life will forcibly suppress you."

"So, over the years, the unspoken rule has been that those who participate in the Three Realms Battlefield Conference are not allowed to exceed the seventh ring of cultivation. In other words, the major forces simply arranged for their core disciples to participate. They can gain experience and treasure, but there is no actual loss of life. It's simply perfect."

Nan Liujing now understood everything, but suddenly thought of something and asked hurriedly, "Then if our human camp goes inside, can we still use soul guides or battle armor?"

With the help of the two-word battle armor, even if I am a Soul Emperor, my combat power can soar to the level of Soul Douluo. Wouldn't that make me able to defeat the demon plane and the indigenous people?
"You're thinking pretty fast." Leng Yaozhu lifted up another leg, the snow-white sheen making Nan Liujing's eyelids twitch. "In the restricted area of ​​the Three Realms battlefield, no battle armor, including soul guides, can be used. Even the simplest storage soul guides are not allowed." "Then how do we bring back the treasure?" Nan Liujing had just asked this question when he suddenly realized, "Ask the natives for help?"

Leng Yaozhu's wine-red eyes flashed with surprise. "Yes, they have a special storage tool that can be brought into the restricted area. To borrow it, you need to pay 20% of the harvest."

Nan Liujing fell into deep thought. He was not interested in the so-called elixirs in the Three Realms battlefield, but the towering ancient trees left by the so-called gods gave him a guess.

"It's almost time for dinner." Leng Yaozhu stood up and patted Nan Liujing on the shoulder. "Teacher will send you the information about the Three Realms Battlefield later. You need to remember that some resources are not available on Douluo Continent. If you miss out, you will regret it."

"Yeah." Nan Liujing responded.

It was still early before the opening day, so he decided to digest it slowly. He followed the teacher to the kitchen.

The three women sat down at the dining table, and Nan Liujing served the dishes one by one as if he was going to reveal a magic trick.

From the bubbling, thick and bright red tomato beef brisket soup.

The grouper is steamed to perfection, and with a slight scrape, you can see the tender and elastic fish meat.

The extra-large seafood platter was steaming cold, and the bright red or snow-white sashimi was translucent and glittering. However, since the decorative coriander was removed by Gu Yue, the appearance was average.

...

By the time the last dish of fish maw and chicken soup was served, the entire table was already full, with more than thirteen dishes, each one harder than the last.

Looking at the golden-yellow, richly fragrant fish maw and chicken soup, Ye Xinglan's beautiful blue eyes flashed with surprise. She glanced at Nan Liujing and asked, "When did you learn to make these?"

Don't get me wrong, she joined in cooking halfway through, unlike Gu Yue.

Nan Liujing smiled in his heart, "I learned it by myself, you guys try it."

Ye Xinglan was not one to be polite with her childhood sweetheart, but she was very polite and said with a smile, "Auntie Leng should go first."

This was obviously the first time for Leng Yaozhu to see her beloved disciple do this. In fact, she liked Nan Liujing to make breakfast, but lunch and dinner were basically prepared and delivered by the kitchen inside the Spirit Pagoda.

If it weren't for Nan Liujing, Leng Yaozhu would even be too lazy to eat. With her level of cultivation, she could have practiced fasting long ago.

Scoop up a bowl, blow on it, hold the edge of the bowl with your red lips, drink the fragrant soup, and then taste the chicken.

The rich soup and the sweet taste of chicken exploded in her mouth, and Leng Yaozhu's eyes lit up slightly, obviously she was attracted to it.

Gu Yue watched the whole process and nodded secretly. As expected, starting with food can impress people's hearts more quickly. Today she learned how to cook two dishes, and she still has to take her time.

"Teacher, how do you feel?" Nan Liujing asked with a smile.

Leng Yaozhu praised: "It tastes very good."

She then gestured for Ye Xinglan and Gu Yue to start eating. "I'll personally teach you mecha design and manufacturing this afternoon. You won't have the energy to learn if you don't eat enough."

Both girls are at the peak of the second level of their secondary profession. Although cooperation and win-win are indeed feasible, it will naturally be faster if they have a famous teacher to teach them.

The meal was held in a harmonious atmosphere.

...

After returning to Tiandou City, Zhenhua helped redesign the defensive fortifications of Tiandou City's administrative headquarters. He and Tiandou City's Chief Executive Mo Wu were old acquaintances and he was willing to spare some time.

What he didn't expect was that a person with a special identity came to his door.

He looks like a middle-aged man, with handsome features and a slender figure. The most eye-catching thing about him is his pair of very beautiful eyes. He looks at everyone with a gentle look, full of unique charm.

"Please sit down." Zhenhua was a little surprised by the visitor, but his tone was still friendly.

"Excuse me." Zang Xin took a seat, glanced at the blueprints on the table with a smile, and said straight to the point, "I came here to ask you for one thing."

"Please speak." Zhenhua gave face to the deputy hall master of Tang Sect's Douluo Hall.

Zang Xin placed a special document on the table, holding it between his fingers. "We in the Tang Sect have taken a fancy to this child. I heard he's your disciple, so before we approach him, we'd like to obtain your permission."

coming.

Zhenhua's eyes were calm as he opened the file and took a look. It was Nan Liujing's battle record in the Hero Hall of the Tang Clan branch in Donghai City.

"He has passed the special assessment of the Hall of Heroes. His battle record is on par with Yun Ming's back then, which is very important for our Tang Sect. To be honest, Lao Cao and I have already talked about it, and we intend to choose this child as the candidate for the future leader of the Tang Sect." Zang Xin spoke in a very gentle tone, and he could unconsciously bring people into his rhythm.

Zhenhua put down the documents and looked directly at Zang Xin: "The Blacksmith Association and the Tang Sect are not in conflict, but I absolutely respect Liu Jing's choice."

Zang Xin smiled and said, "It's enough for the master craftsman to say this. I will go talk to this kid."

Zhenhua suddenly remembered something and said calmly, "The child is currently in seclusion training. Please come back to see him in a month."

Zang Xin didn't suspect anything, thinking the target was just honing his forging skills. He stood up and said gently, "Then I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye."

Zhenhua didn't see him off and just watched him leave.

After confirming that he had left the Blacksmith Association, he quickly took out his cell phone and called Nan Liujing.

After all, this kid lives in the Tianling Tower, where there are many people and eyes. The Tang Sect obviously did not conduct a thorough investigation, but they were afraid of encountering him by chance.

The original novel of Demonic Plane is too thin, so I'm thinking of adapting and expanding it. Otherwise, there's really nothing to write about in Dousan. Of course, I don't know if I can write it well, so I can only say that I'll try my best.
