Chapter 32: Mu En's Compromise, dragon core as Payment
"Use the dragon core to trade for it."
Lin Sheng's cold voice echoed before the great hall, yet it felt like a heavy hammer, slamming fiercely into Mu En's heart.
"Senior Mu En, since we are discussing payment, Shrek has deep pockets. My Body Sect is not lacking in ordinary external Spirit Bones or rare metals."
The corners of Lin Sheng's mouth curled into an imperceptible arc.
His tone seemed calm... yet it always carried a hint of disdain for Shrek, as well as that trace of hatred originating from the depths of his heart!
Lin Sheng looked directly at this Dragon God Douluo.
He enunciated every word clearly, "What I want is that dragon core, clearly priced."
"I think this is fair. As for whether you agree or not..."
Lin Sheng did not continue.
The moment his voice fell, Du Busi, who had been guarding the sidelines, suddenly shook, and blinding light erupted from his dark golden tiger eyes.
"dragon core?!"
A monstrous wave surged in Du Busi's heart.
As the Sect Master of the Body Sect, he had naturally heard of that legendary divine object.
The dragon core, which is the dragon's core... Ahem. Nonsense!
"The dragon core is the essence of energy condensed after a true dragon dies. Who would have thought that this Dragon God Douluo actually possessed such a treasure."
Thinking of this, Du Busi's breathing became rapid!
It is an inner core condensed from its lifelong cultivation and bloodline essence.
If Lin Sheng could obtain this dragon core... combined with his twice-awakened Body Martial Soul, the Sharingan, and his ultimate mental force, both his physical body and mental force would become incomparably terrifying!
"Heh, the Dragon God Douluo... actually hid such a good thing?"
Du Busi's gaze became incomparably fiery, even faintly revealing a hint of sharp greed.
And Mu En on the wheelchair, upon hearing the words 'dragon core', finally felt a subtle twitch on his previously calm face.
"..."
A look of deep astonishment and complexity flashed through his profound eyes.
The existence of the dragon core. Looking across the entire Shrek Academy, I am afraid that few people truly know about it.
That was a gift he had prepared for Bei Bei! It was the foundation for his great-grandson, who possessed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon bloodline, to truly transform into a dragon and reach the summit in the future.
"How... how could he know about the existence of the dragon core?"
Where on earth did this youth from the Body Sect find out about it?
Lin Sheng captured the trace of struggle in Mu En's eyes. He turned slightly to the side, his right hand resting casually on his waist, but in reality, his fingertips had already condensed a faint spatial fluctuation.
Du Busi, who had been with Lin Sheng for many years, immediately understood.
He secretly mobilized his newly stabilized Limit Douluo spirit power, and his dark golden Domain appeared faintly under his feet.
As long as Mu En erupted in anger because the secret of the dragon core was leaked, he, this freshly minted Limit Douluo... would definitely not mind teaching this long-famous Dragon God Douluo an unforgettable lesson on the Body Sect's home turf.
"Mu En's vitality is no longer what it used to be." "If we really fight, I'm not afraid of him." Du Busi snorted coldly.
Time ticked away, and the murderous aura in the air was so thick it almost liquefied.
After a long while, Mu En let out a long sigh, filled with endless desolation and dejection. "Sigh..."
His already hunched back seemed to bend even further in that instant, and those eyes that had seen through the world were filled with helplessness.
"Very well."
Mu En's voice was low and hoarse, as if every word weighed a thousand jin.
"Then, the condition is one dragon core, but, young friend Lin Sheng, you must guarantee that the evil fire inside Ma Xiaotao... must never erupt again."
Lin Sheng heard the compromise in Mu En's words. However, he did not show wild joy; instead, he pretended to be helpless and spread his hands, his tone carrying a touch of business-like indifference.
"No, that is asking too much. Ma Xiaotao's Phoenix evil fire is an innate defect of her Spirit. Unless the Spirit itself is repaired, no one can eradicate it."
"What I can guarantee is only to eliminate Shiranui's mental residue and use my ocular power to temporarily suppress that rampaging evil fire for a period of time."
Lin Sheng appeared helpless on the surface, but he was sneering inside.
"What a joke, if it weren't for the dragon core..." "Do you think I would even bother with you?"
In fact, relying on his Sharingan, which had now fused with two great Immortal Herbs, if he condensed the source of his genjutsu, although he could not completely purify the Spirit, but... it would not be difficult to completely seal Ma Xiaotao's evil fire!
But how could he be so generous as to help Shrek cultivate a powerhouse of Ultimate Fire?
What he wanted to do... was just like repairing porcelain, temporarily gluing the cracks together, collecting that priceless dragon core, and as for when this porcelain would explode again later, that would no longer be his responsibility.
"After obtaining the dragon core, even if Ma Xiaotao dies, you can't blame me," Lin Sheng thought to himself.
If it weren't for the fact that the dragon core could help him cultivate a physical body as terrifying as a dragon's! He wouldn't even bother to look at Ma Xiaotao twice.
"Hmm..." Mu En closed his eyes and pondered for a long time.
He knew clearly in his heart that this was already the best result that could be achieved at present.
"Such a result is not too bad." Mu En sighed inwardly.
He could feel that his own time was running out, and the current Body Sect, under the leadership of Du Busi, was at the height of its power.
If he were to fight to the death with a newly promoted Limit Douluo over a Ma Xiaotao at this moment, Shrek could not afford the price... Moreover, the Sun Moon Empire was eyeing them covetously; that was the common threat to all Spirit Masters of the original Douluo Continent.
"In that case, please." Mu En opened his eyes, his tone calm: "Follow me back to Shrek."
"Good, I will go with you." Du Busi nodded. Since Lin Sheng had fought for this opportunity for him, he naturally would not object; after all, that was a dragon core.
And he would certainly not feel at ease letting Lin Sheng go to Shrek alone. No matter what... he had to follow!
Du Busi withdrew his overbearing aura and patted Lin Sheng's shoulder heroically: "Let's go!"
"If you can cure that Ma Xiaotao, this dragon core will be of great help to you."
Mu En was helpless, but he had to compromise. A moment later, three streams of light cut through the sky, speeding towards the direction of Shrek Academy.
"Boom—!" Lin Sheng stood in the void, protected by Du Busi's power. He looked at the mountains and rivers rapidly receding beneath his feet, blood-colored light seemingly flashing in his pupils. This trip to Shrek would definitely mean facing Xuan Zi again.
"Forget it, this trip is not the time for revenge." "I will take Xuan Zi's life with my own hands."
Lin Sheng thought indifferently. This trip was only to obtain the dragon core. Since there was such an opportunity for this kind of fortune, it must be grasped in his own hands!
As for Bei Bei? A piece of trash. Huo Yuhao... losing Tianmeng Iceworm and Electrolux, he is afraid he will have to suffer quite a bit in the early stages.
