Douluo Continent: Becoming a disciple of Jing Liu, illuminating all the gods

Chapter 57 The Way

In mid-air, the Taotie Divine Ox, transformed from Elder Xuan, charged forward fiercely, its yellow light crashing towards Poison Undying like a monstrous wave.

The dark green giant that Poison Immortal had transformed into strode through the void, fearlessly charging forward without flinching.

With a deafening roar, the two collided in mid-air.

In that instant, all the powerful figures who were originally floating in the air, whether from Shrek Academy or the Body Sect, quickly fell back to the ground.

The battle between Elder Xuan and Poison Undying continued. Although Elder Xuan's Gluttonous Divine Ox was one of the top martial souls in the world, he still suffered a loss due to his soul rings. Poison Undying had a powerful combination of two yellow, two purple, two black, and three red soul rings. It's no wonder that he dared to lead his men to charge into Mingde Hall and wreak havoc.

In the Sun Moon Empire, there are no Super Douluo above level 95...

Elder Xuan's spirit ring configuration was rather common: two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red. A normal spirit master, if they followed the optimal spirit ring configuration of Yu Xiaogang, would probably have a similar configuration, except they wouldn't have a single ten-thousand-year spirit ring, because they were unkillable…

In mid-air, the fierce clash between the two powerful figures caused the sky to explode like a burst of fireworks. The dark green light behind Poison Undying suddenly formed large vortexes. Meanwhile, the yellow light behind Elder Xuan instantly formed countless huge yellow orbs, transforming into a meteor shower that crashed into the dark green vortex.

But the Poison Undying was indeed powerful; a massive, dark green vortex formed a funnel shape in the air, remaining unmoved despite the terrifying meteor shower. Any yellow light that entered vanished instantly, like a clay ox sinking into the sea.

The two powerful figures in the center were locked in a standoff. The Hulk, transformed from the Poison Immortal, gripped Elder Xuan's massive horns tightly. They seemed to be locked in a struggle, but neither could gain the upper hand. The light emanating from their bodies flickered. Their true forms, however, remained in a semi-static state.

The battle between Elder Xuan and Poison Undying continued, seemingly evenly matched, but in reality, Elder Xuan was already at a disadvantage. If their battle continued, Elder Xuan would lose, and if it were a life-or-death battle, Elder Xuan would die!

That's how battles are between peak Douluo. Once you reach that level, it's basically impossible to kill someone of a higher level. Of course, Huo Yuhao, when he was in his nineties, directly killed Di Tian, ​​who was on par with him for a short time, and even injured Di Tian's Evil Eye Tyrant Douluo...

"Seven Nights, you seem to have a keen eye for detail. Why don't you share your thoughts?"

Elder Mu was not worried that Elder Xuan would be at a disadvantage in a short time, after all, Elder Mu knew Elder Xuan's strength better than anyone else.

Looking at Elder Mu's expression, Chen Qiye asked, "Are you sure you want me to say it?"

"Hmm, speak." In fact, Elder Mu already had a plan in mind. Having been in charge of the Sea God Pavilion for many years and having dominated the continent for over two hundred years, Elder Mu would not have survived to this day without some wisdom and methods, let alone have the strength he has now.

Chen Qiye nodded and said, "Since Elder Mu wants me to speak, then I will."

"Actually, this time, Shrek Academy was in the wrong. Although the Body Sect is domineering, Elder Xuan's actions that day, while not wrong, were indeed a bit excessive. After all, there has always been an unwritten rule in the Douluo Continent. Once such an unwritten rule is established, it becomes recognized by all parties. Now, as long as someone breaks this rule, it will inevitably cause disputes. Today's situation is due to this."

At this point, Elder Mu's eyes trembled slightly, and he looked at Chen Qiye with some surprise. He was too mature. Chen Qiye was simply a born decision-maker. Not only did he analyze the key reasons, but his experienced wisdom was also more mature than that of a young man!

Even after spending many years by his side, he never felt that way, but today he did…

"Then what do you think should be done?" Old Mu had a new idea in mind. In fact, not only Old Mu, but also Yan Shaozhe and others around him looked at Chen Qiye at Old Mu's prompting.

"But if we're really talking about reason, what is the purpose of our cultivation? Is it to reason with people? No, it's not so that others will reason with us."

"Since he won't listen to reason, then we don't need to reason with him."

"But if we must talk about reason, we're not entirely without merit."

"The Body Sect's goal is simple: they want Huo Yuhao because of his Body Martial Soul. But we at Shrek Academy also have Martial Soul systems! Isn't Huo Yuhao's second Martial Soul, the Ice Jade Scorpion, a normal Martial Soul?"

"Moreover, he is a student of Shrek Academy."

"If reason prevails, we can live in harmony. If reason is not heeded, then we can only test our might."

.........

Poison Undying retorted sharply, "What? You think you can stop me? Hand over the person quickly, or don't blame me for going in to find them directly, and the methods won't be so peaceful."

"If Xuanzi can't stop you, then what about me?" Just then, a gentle voice quietly rang out, followed by a soft halo that suddenly emanated from Shrek Academy below, or more precisely, from the Sea God Pavilion.

The soft golden light spread seemingly slowly but actually swiftly, soaring into the sky in the blink of an eye. A miraculous scene unfolded: both Elder Xuan and Poison Undying's auras vanished completely under the golden light, and the oppressive force in the sky dissipated. The soft gold not only enveloped Shrek Academy but also Shrek City itself. At this moment, Shrek City, viewed from the outside, was practically a city of gold!

The usually domineering Poison Immortal's expression changed drastically upon seeing this: "The Light of the Sea God? How is this possible? How could someone from Shrek Academy be able to unleash the Light of the Sea God?"

"Undying, it's been many years. It seems you've forgotten me." Cihe's voice rang out again, but it only reached the ears of Du Busi.

"You, you are..." Poison Undying stared in astonishment at the Sea God Pavilion below, which was radiating brilliant golden light. For a moment, beads of sweat appeared on his dark green forehead.

Old Master Mu said calmly, "I still remember clearly what your brother bestowed upon you back then. You and your brother have the exact same temper. Impulsiveness is the devil. If it weren't for your brother's impulsiveness back then, perhaps he would still be alive today."

Upon hearing this, Poison Immortal finally confirmed his guess and was shocked: "You...you're still alive? How is that possible? Didn't you already...?"

Elder Mu said calmly, "If I die, will you then bully Shrek Academy?" His simple words struck Poison Undying like an invisible hammer. A flash of intense golden light filled the air, and Poison Undying's dark green body suddenly shrank by a meter, a strong emerald green light emanating from his body.

Poison Undying said with some annoyance, "Dragon God Douluo, that battle wasn't just a matter of pride. Why should my elder brother back down?"

Elder Mu said calmly, "You know the whole story perfectly well. There's no need to argue with me. All you need to know is that the Sea God Pavilion Master is still me. I've already asked Huo Yuhao of this academy and told him about the situation of your Body Sect. He expressed his willingness to stay at Shrek Academy. Please leave. I'll let this matter slide this time because of your brother. But if there's a next time, or if your Body Sect uses other methods to scheme against my disciple in the future, then don't blame me for personally coming to the Body Sect to demand an explanation."

Poison Undying's expression changed several times: "That little guy has already become your disciple?"

Old Master Mu coldly replied, "That's right. What? Do you think you're more suitable to teach him than I am?"

Poison Immortal took a deep breath: "Dragon God Douluo, for your sake, let's just let this matter drop. But I must tell you, we, the Body Sect, cannot give up on this child. You are older than me, and you should know that at our age, we are nearing our end. And our Body Sect currently has no successor."

Elder Mu said with some surprise, "How can there be no successor? Isn't the seed of your Body Sect's inheritance right in your body?"

Poison Undying said with some annoyance, "However, our sect hasn't had a new member for nearly twenty years. Besides, do you think just anyone can inherit the Seed of Inheritance? That's enough for today. As long as that kid is in Shrek Academy, I won't touch him. But outside Shrek Academy, it's all up to our abilities. Dragon God, even if you're still alive, I don't believe my elder brother didn't leave something on you back then. I'm no match for you, but if you want to kill me, the price you pay will certainly not be small. Shrek Academy's opponents are not just our Body Sect. Until we meet again."

After saying this, Du Busi's dark green light suddenly ignited, fiercely burning a hole in the golden light of the Sea God. He then flew out and waved his hand in the air: "Subjects of the Body Sect, retreat."

More than twenty figures swiftly fled into the distance, disappearing in the blink of an eye. The golden light in the sky also gradually receded, returning to the Sea God Pavilion.

At this moment, not only was Shrek Academy in an uproar, but the entire Shrek City was abuzz with discussion because of the miraculous situation that had just occurred.

"Shao Zhe, go and calm the people down. Xuan Zi, you and Su Yu come with me."

As he spoke, Elder Xuan followed Chen Qiye into the Sea God Pavilion. When Elder Mu lay back on the recliner, Elder Xuan's expression turned somewhat grim. Elder Mu lay quietly on the recliner, still looking as frail and old as ever. Judging by his appearance alone, who would have guessed that he had almost single-handedly frightened away the entire Body Sect?

"Elder Mu," Elder Xuan greeted him somewhat dejectedly.

Elder Mu smiled slightly and said, "What? Feeling down? You didn't lose. Being suppressed by Poison Undying is nothing. If I hadn't been lucky back then, I would have left this world long ago, just like Poison Undying's elder brother. Even if I had survived, I would still be crippled for life. Even if I had taken action, I might not have been able to do much better than you. After all, the current Dragon God is not the Dragon God of the past."

The era of Elder Mu will eventually pass. Whether he is a peak Douluo or an ultimate Douluo, if he does not become a god, he will eventually become a handful of dust.
