Wang Nan sensed them briefly and found that both men had spirit power fluctuations, though their cultivation was clearly not high.
However, what kind of place was this? Why would the Star Luo Empire send soldiers with spirit power cultivation here?
Wang Nan suddenly recalled the buildings he had seen in that space, then looked at the surrounding ruins, and a guess formed in his mind.
While he was pondering, the two soldiers had already arrived in front of Wang Nan.
"Excuse me, please show your identification."
The two soldiers gripped their weapons tightly, clearly very nervous.
Wang Nan had no intention of making things difficult for them, so he took out his identification and showed it to them.
"So you are from Shrek Academy. We apologize."
It had to be said that the name of Shrek Academy was indeed useful; the soldiers' attitudes instantly became more polite, but Wang Nan still noticed something amiss in their expressions.
"What, is there anything else?"
The two soldiers hesitated for a moment, then finally spoke, "Please forgive us, the situation is truly special. Could we ask you to come with us to register?"
Wang Nan nodded in agreement, then glanced at Pan Huai. Seeing him also nod slightly, he followed the two soldiers.
Temporary tents had already been set up here.
"May I ask what exactly happened here?" Wang Nan asked while registering.
"Since you are from Shrek Academy, you are naturally allowed to know. As you know, Evil Soul Masters pose a great threat to both us Spirit Masters and ordinary citizens. We came here because we received information and discovered traces of Evil Soul Masters."
Wang Nan re-examined the surrounding environment and confirmed the guess in his heart.
This should be the ruins of Spirit Hall.
Ten thousand years ago, Spirit Hall was located between the Star Luo Empire and the Heaven Dou Empire. Nowadays, this place had become the border between the Star Luo Empire and the Douling Empire. Few people came here, so some ruins had been preserved.
The space Wang Nan and his companions went to should also have been a part of Spirit Hall, but because it was hidden in another space, it remained undiscovered after Spirit Hall's demise. The two Super Douluo, on the other hand, used that door to open another passage, leaving some things behind.
As for the traces of Evil Soul Masters, were they also trying to find something in the ruins of Spirit Hall?
However, at this moment, within Wang Nan's mental force sea, the Evil Breaking Dragon was quietly floating in mid-air. Even if an Evil Soul Master had appeared here, he had already left Wang Nan's mental force sensing range.
"We are truly sorry for delaying your journey."
After completing the registration, the two soldiers escorted Wang Nan and his two companions for a certain distance.
"It's fine. After all, you two are just doing your duty."
After bidding farewell to the soldiers, Wang Nan and his two companions finally embarked on their journey back to Shrek City.
…
A few days later, in Shrek City, Wang Nan and Pan Huai sat opposite each other in the same teahouse.
"Inside this is what I comprehended in that space. The two ancestors wanted to impart to their descendants not just one rod technique, but the will of the Coiling Dragon Staff."
"The Coiling Dragon Staff Spirit is unlike others; human soul, tool soul, and dragon soul—only when the three are united can its power be fully unleashed."
Clearly, Pan Huai was the Spirit Saint who had comprehended the Martial Soul True Body, but at this moment, it was Wang Nan who was eloquently explaining some things, while Pan Huai listened, nodding continuously.
"Every Coiling Dragon Staff Spirit Master should comprehend something unique based on their own circumstances. The specific content is all recorded inside," Wang Nan said, handing Pan Huai a book.
Pan Huai's face was agitated, and he reached out with both hands to take it.
"Also, there's one more thing."
"Please speak."
"These things were originally left by the ancestors from ten thousand years ago for their descendants. I shouldn't say much more, but since they are being passed on through my hands, I don't want to see anyone use them for evil."
"Good!" Pan Huai nodded solemnly.
Watching Pan Huai leave, Wang Nan's gaze fell on the Jubao Pavilion across the street.
Soon, his figure appeared inside the Jubao Pavilion. He went up to the second floor, where an old woman was waving at him.
"Elder Lin."
Ever since Wang Nan entered the Inner Courtyard, whenever he had time, he would meditate in front of the Sea God Pavilion. He had become quite familiar with several of the elders in the Sea God Pavilion.
"Sit down. This isn't the time for the treasure appraisal fair, so why did you suddenly want to come and look around here?"
"I came this time to ask Elder Lin if there are any spirit tools here that can go out to sea."
After coming out of that space, the call Wang Nan had vaguely felt by the sea before had become increasingly clear. Now, even in Shrek City, Wang Nan could feel something subtly pointing in a certain direction.
"Oh?" Lin Huiqun's eyes changed. "Such spirit tools shouldn't be uncommon, right?"
"Elder Lin, you know what I mean. I'm talking about spirit tools that can go into the deep sea."
Lin Huiqun did not answer directly but looked at Wang Nan. "Logically speaking, since I established this Jubao Pavilion, it is for business. But as an elder of the Academy, I must remind you that no matter what you go to sea for, the sea is always more dangerous than land."
"The ocean is far vaster than land, and the overall strength of Sea Soul Beasts also exceeds that of land. Moreover, even with spirit tools, Spirit Masters will still be restricted in the sea."
"Don't worry, Elder Lin. Someone will accompany me when the time comes," Wang Nan smiled.
He still remembered that a Super Douluo had promised to help him once. Accompanying him on a trip to sea shouldn't be too much to ask, right?
Lin Huiqun nodded. "In that case, I do have an eighth-grade spirit tool here that meets your requirements. It just depends on whether you want it or not."
Wang Nan understood Lin Huiqun's meaning. She didn't really care how much money this spirit tool could sell for; rather, she was seeing if Wang Nan had the ability to use this spirit tool.
Driving an eighth-grade spirit tool requires at least the cultivation of a Spirit Douluo. Whether Wang Nan went to sea by himself or with companions, having the cultivation of an eight-ring Spirit Douluo would always be safer.
"Thank you, Elder Lin. Can I take a look first?"
Lin Huiqun said no more. With a wave of her hand, a moment later, a young girl walked out holding a ring.
"This spirit tool is quite large, and it can't be placed here, but I can tell you that this spirit tool is named Soul Hunter. It was made by Mingde Hall for capturing Sea Soul Beasts. After activating its protection, it can withstand all attacks from Spirit Beasts below fifty thousand years."
"I don't know what you're going to sea for, but you can't possibly need to go to sea all the time, right? Consider this spirit tool borrowed from me. You don't need to spend money; just return it to me when you're done. How about that?"
"Then many thanks, Elder Lin."
