Besides Bei Bei and Cao Jinxuan, when the five from Tang Wutong's group saw this so-called Sea God Pavilion Master for the first time, they were all greatly shocked. Isn't this the old man who is usually lying down in front of the freshman dormitory building?
In the end, Jiang Nannan, just as in the original world line, was handed over to be guided by Cai Mei'er. Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi were taken down by Yan Shaozhe. He Caitou continued to follow his teacher, Fan Yu. Cao Jinxuan, Tang Wutong, and Xiao Xiao, the three, stayed behind and entered the Golden Tree to meditate and gain enlightenment.
The place they had entered was the underground world of the Sea God Pavilion. There were a total of one hundred and eight rooms, almost encompassing all the suitable environments for all types of martial souls. Every inner court disciple had one chance to come here for deep meditation. Although the three of them were not yet inner court disciples, because of their talent with twin martial souls, they had gotten the opportunity to come here for deep meditation in advance.
To cultivate here had the effect of twice the result with half the effort. It would be of great benefit to their cultivation. More importantly, it was to find their own path. This was their opportunity. They had to grasp this opportunity well.
The room where Xiao Xiao was located was very special. Inside the room was a large bell. Upon entering, the first thing Xiao Xiao felt was a sense of heaviness that made her unable to breathe. When she had with great difficulty sat down on the futon in the center of the room... she only heard a loud "boom." All the surrounding scenery had completely disappeared. The only thought in her heart was that she had been trapped inside a large bell.
And Tang Wutong, through a long corridor, when she had entered a space with a rich life temperament, there was already a beautiful figure waiting for a long time.
It was a woman, her appearance extremely beautiful. A head of long, blue hair was scattered behind her back. A green, one-piece long dress was full of a rich aura of life.
"You are?" When Tang Wutong saw the familiar and graceful beautiful figure, an aura originating from a blood connection made her face change slightly.
"Little Qi, you've grown up."
The woman looked at Tang Wutong with a gentle gaze, her face filled with a thick color of love and affection. Her lotus steps moved slightly, and she came before Tang Wutong, slightly opening her two arms.
"Gra... grandma?" The seal was broken. The memories of the past rushed in like a tide. Tang Wutong finally recognized the identity of the person before her and quickly pounced into the woman's embrace. All the hardships she had suffered during her training on the continent were all turned into grievances and were completely released.
Mu En's old figure silently appeared not far from the two. Looking at this scene, a thoughtful color was revealed in his old eyes.
"Grandma, how come you are here?" Tang Wutong cried for a good while, and only then did she raise her head from Ah Yin's embrace and ask with swollen, beautiful eyes.
"The Golden Tree is also an Ancient Tree of Life. It is the core of the Douluo plane. Your grandfather and I couldn't stand the loneliness in the Divine Realm. At your father's request, we returned to the Douluo Continent. Your grandfather is now working hard to assimilate with the Plane Master. And I have been here all along, trying to integrate into the Ancient Tree of Life, in order to control the entire ecosystem of Douluo."
Ah Yin gently stroked Tang Wutong's pink-blue beautiful hair. "Child, grandma knows you have suffered a lot recently. Your father was the same back then. One must eat the bitterest of the bitter to become a person above others. One failure cannot prove anything. Your father also holds considerable expectations for you. Don't let him down."
"I will, grandma," Tang Wutong's nose felt a little sour, but she still nodded heavily.
"I never thought you were really the daughter of Lord Sea God who had descended to the Douluo Continent after ten thousand years," Mu En was a little emotional. Although Ah Yin had given him a heads-up in advance, after learning the exact truth, he still felt a little emotional.
Hearing his words, the trident pattern on Tang Wutong's forehead shone slightly. The pure Sea God's power almost made the Mu En before her prostrate himself in worship.
"Grandma, why did father have to ask you to descend to the lower realm to control the Douluo Continent? I haven't seen you for so many years," Tang Wutong shook Ah Yin's arm in a cute and naive manner and asked coquettishly.
"Silly child," Ah Yin gently stroked Tang Wutong's pretty face. "Your father has not had it easy in the Divine Realm these few years. While his affairs are busy, he is also constantly being targeted by the other God-Kings. Your grandfather and I saw it and felt the pain in our hearts. So we decided to come down and help him."
"This Douluo Continent has given birth to more than one god before. There are also many unsolved mysteries waiting for humans to discover. Even in the deep sea, your father, as the Sea God, has not been able to see the full picture. And, we have received news from your father that recently, another Son of Fortune has been born on the continent. If he can pass your father's many tests, in the future, he may not be unable to become his right-hand man."
"A Son of Fortune? Who could that be?" Tang Wutong tilted her head. And Mu En's gaze also at the same time turned to Ah Yin. This news was simply too important. Once they could climb onto this thigh of a Son of Fortune, then Shrek would be able to stand for another ten thousand years without falling!
"Your father said that the Son of Fortune will surely be related to our Little Qi. It's very likely you have already met him, or he has been by your side all along. If it's a not-bad young man, Little Qi, you must not miss him," Ah Yin dotingly scraped Tang Wutong's delicate nose. The latter's mind immediately had the image of that broad figure, and her pretty face immediately turned red.
"Grandma, what are you talking about?"
Ah Yin and Mu En couldn't help but laugh. No matter how high Tang Wutong's true seniority was to the latter, at this time, Tang Wutong was just a child in the posture of a little daughter.
"Little Qi, you've come at just the right time. Shrek has suffered a great disaster. Little Mu's important successor, Xuan Zi, has very likely already met with misfortune. The other old men of the Sea God Pavilion are still not enough to take over this heavy burden. Only Little Mu can continue to control the overall situation. So the urgent task now is to treat the hidden ailment he has left from his early years," Ah Yin's gaze turned to the Dragon God Douluo, Mu En, and she said.
Hearing Ah Yin's words, a look of hope couldn't help but light up in Mu En's old eyes. He had indeed already reached the age of his heavenly mandate. The injuries from that year had caused him too great, too great a trouble, so much so that his cultivation had not been able to advance an inch for a hundred years. Now he had learned from this mother of a God-King that he actually had a chance to recover. How could he not be excited?
"What do I need to do?" Tang Wutong also looked at the stooped Mu En with a pained look. The Dragon God Douluo who had once dominated the continent had actually been reduced to this. If it had been anyone else, I'm afraid they would have long since collapsed.
"On your body, there is your father's purest Sea God's aura. You just need to guide the divine power in your body..."
The room where Cao Jinxuan was located was the most peculiar one. Pushing the door and entering, it was a sheet of pitch black. The entire room was quiet.
Walking into the room, he did not have the Spirit Eyes martial soul of the Huo Gua from the original world line. But with the glowing appearance of his martial soul, even in a place without a single ray of light, he could illuminate the nearby scenery.
However, just at this time, Cao Jinxuan suddenly felt the place where he was violently twist for a moment. It seemed the entire space had undergone a drastic change like a twisted dough twist. And then his entire person's spirit also became dazed.
Staggering forward two steps, countless yellow light spots suddenly lit up around. Like one after another of pairs of eyes staring at him. This quiet room of about ten square meters also lit up with it.
What is this?
When Cao Jinxuan saw clearly what was on the surrounding walls, he was startled and immediately wanted to rush out the door. However, at this time he was surprised to find that he couldn't find the door. Even if he immediately released his substitute martial soul and left this place through a rapid displacement, it was still in vain.
On the four walls and the ceiling were hung the same kind of bones. This kind of bone was clearly not human, but a kind of a triangular skull. The position of the eyes was particularly large, and the bones below were sharp and thin. The yellow lights were coming from the eye sockets in the bones, as if they were burning balls of fire.
"Mmm," Cao Jinxuan, who had just released his substitute martial soul, let out a muffled groan. His body swayed, and he almost fell to the ground. His spiritual resistance was too weak. He only felt that an incomparably vast spiritual power had formed a huge cage that was imprisoning him within, and was continuously squeezing inwards.
This feeling was not just painful, but was also filled with fear. His own consciousness also began to churn violently, as if it were about to be torn to shreds by the terrifying spiritual power from the outside world. He could only endure all of this alone.
Mu Lao's voice sounded at this very moment.
"Cao Jinxuan, as the contemporary successor of the Body Sect, what is your purpose for coming to my Shrek?"
Cao Jinxuan was like an injured wild beast, rolling around on the ground. He could only barely muster his spirit and reply, "Elder Mu, I just wanted to come to the academy to obtain an opportunity. The Body Sect cannot give it to me. I can only come to your esteemed academy by myself. I have no other intentions!"
"Oh? Then tell me, what is the opportunity you speak of?" This time it was Mu En's turn to be curious. Shrek was an academy. After ten thousand years of precipitation, whether it had deteriorated or not, it was still just a place to teach and nurture people.
"Ah—it's... it's Huo Yuhao... I took his place and tried to walk the path he should have walked!" Cao Jinxuan continued to roar. Although his willpower was weak, he would not go so far as to tell what he knew of the original world line.
Cao Jinxuan's words, Ah Yin and Tang Wutong, who were in the same space as Mu En, could all hear. The latter even more so widened her beautiful eyes slightly. It seemed that this Cao Jinxuan, to have been able to come to her class back then, and even to join her team in the freshman assessment, had all been with a certain purpose.
"So you can predict the future?" This time it was Ah Yin's voice that sounded. They naturally hadn't yet thought of the concept of a transmigrator. Including her good son, the great God-King Tang, to this day he still did not dare to let her know that he had transmigrated and possessed the original Tang San.
"Yes... yes. Originally, Huo Yuhao was Wang Dong's... no, Wutong's teammate. They had won the championship of the freshman assessment and the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Dueling Tournament together. Including the ferocious beast soul rings he had obtained, and the many treasures, were all what he deserved."
"Ferocious beast soul rings?" Mu En was silent. He couldn't help but recall the pile of inconspicuous white soul rings on Huo Yuhao's body. It seemed that the white soul rings carved with golden patterns were by no means as simple as an ordinary ten-year soul ring. It was very likely the special color of a ferocious beast soul ring. There were records from ten thousand years ago. The Tang Sect's ancestor, Tang San, had killed a nearly-million-year-old Deep Sea Demon Whale, and in the end had also obtained a dark gold soul ring that was different from the normal color of a soul ring.
"So that Huo Yuhao was Tang Wutong's original teammate?" Ah Yin's tone became more and more unfriendly. One must know that their beloved Little Qi had suffered a series of tragic defeats. The root cause was actually the fault of her teammate not being a match!
Cao Jinxuan, you have already chosen the path to death!
