Chapter 78: Ontology and the Secret Talk

In the territory of the Tianhun Empire, there is a place covered by continuous heavy snow and the terrain is steep.

This place is a seldom visited pass. Even soul beasts would not choose to live in such a barren land.

However, many powerful soul masters who are capable of dominating the outside world and even founding their own sects are secretly stationed here.

After bypassing the secret sentry stationed by the Soul Saint, even a Titled Douluo stationed there in charge of support did not notice anything unusual.

This is where the hidden sect, the Body Sect, is located.

After entering the pass, the terrain is extremely narrow at first, and then it becomes suddenly open.

In this place covered with snow, there is unexpectedly a valley full of spiritual energy and blooming flowers in spring.

Most of the people I met along the way were soul masters with great accomplishments, and there were very few ordinary people.

In the main hall of the Body Sect, unlike the others along the way, Du Bu Si, the leader of the Body Sect and the current Body Douluo, felt a strange aura appearing nearby.

You have to know that he is the Super Douluo who is closest to the Ultimate Douluo level in Douluo Continent. In terms of cultivation, he is even better than Xuan Zi of Shrek Academy. Who dares to be so presumptuous in his Body Sect?

"I didn't expect that Dragon God Douluo, you are not dead yet."

Due to some reasons, a large number of the powerful people of the Body Sect are not stationed in the sect right now, so the main hall of the Body Sect seems particularly deserted at this moment.

And it was at this moment that the leader of the Body Sect, Du Bu Si, snorted coldly and looked at the hunchbacked old man who slowly walked into the hall. Although he did not hide his figure, he isolated himself through his soul power and did not attract anyone's attention.

Although the old man seemed to be in his twilight years and his hunched body was about to be buried at any time, the aura he exuded at this moment was even more overwhelming than that of Du Bu Si. The cultivation level of this Extreme Douluo was naturally that of Dragon God Douluo Moon.

"Hmph, I wonder what business the Dragon God Douluo has in coming to my Body Sect. My Body Sect doesn't have any good tea to entertain a distinguished guest like you."

"And my Body Sect has followed through on its previous promise and has never provoked anyone from your Shrek Academy, let alone gone to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt down 100,000-year-old spirit beasts, right?"

Although the Body Sect, because of the agreement with the royal family of the Tianhun Empire and Du Bu Si's own plan, has begun to gradually let its disciples leave the mountain gate and look for opportunities to prepare for a rebirth.

However, to be on the safe side, they mostly kept a low profile and would not directly provoke Shrek Academy. In addition, although Huo Yuhao was also representing Shrek Academy as a reserve team this time.

However, Huo Yuhao only displayed his martial soul in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition, but did not reveal his other qualities. Although he was also noticed by the Body Sect, the Body Sect did not plan to rob him directly after reporting it.

Instead, he planned to send his disciples to find an opportunity to contact Huo Yuhao in Shrek Academy later. It would be best if Huo Yuhao graduated from the outer school of Shrek Academy and then recruit him legitimately.

After all, a martial soul has an important part like the eyes, and it also has spiritual attributes. It is suspected that a soul master who also has the brain as a martial soul is extremely rare in the body sect and is completely worthy of cultivation.

Moreover, the students who graduated from the outer college of Shrek Academy are different from those who graduated from the inner college of Shrek Academy. They do not have such a deep binding relationship with Shrek. As long as the relationship is established well before graduation, they can be won over.

After all, the outer school of Shrek Academy is essentially just a college and cannot control the students' stay or departure.

But Moon shook his head and did not react to Du Bu Si's ridicule: "This time, I am not here to cause trouble for your Benti Sect, but to negotiate a deal with my friends in the Benti Sect."

"Deal? What can my Body Sect and your Shrek Academy have to discuss? And where does the word 'friend' come from? My Body Sect does not have any friends who are Dragon God Douluo!"

Du Bu Si sneered. You know, his brother died at the hands of Moon, although this was a result that both parties had agreed on in advance.

He originally thought that Moon should have died together with his brother, but he didn't expect that Moon actually survived in the end and even broke through to the level of ninety-ninth-level Extreme Douluo.

However, despite this, he was not afraid of Moon, after all, Moon was much older than him.

Looking at Moon's appearance, it is obvious that he was affected by the fatal poison of the previous generation's Douluo poison.

Even if Moon can maintain the combat power of the Extreme Douluo, it is unknown how long he can fight as his deadline is approaching.

Although Du Bushi was not absolutely sure of defeating Moon, he was still confident in a tug-of-war. What's more, this was the Body Sect, his territory.

"The Sun-Moon Empire has been making frequent moves these days, and your Body Sect is also very restless on the mainland."

Upon hearing this, Du Bushi did not refute, because there was no point in refutation. Since Moon could say so, he must have solid evidence.

But even if he is restless, what does it matter? When the previous generation Douluo Du Bi Si challenged Moon, he swore that if the Body Sect was defeated, he would behave himself for a hundred years and not affect the order of the continent maintained by Shrek Academy.

The only thing is that Moon’s time is up, and Shrek’s new generation is in a period of transition. In addition, the time of the oath is about to end. Even if the Body Sect is a little too much, so what? Does Shrek Academy dare to go to war with them?

However, Moon's next words made Du Bu Si frown: "Your Benti Sect should be cooperating with the royal family of the Tianhun Empire, right?"

"Have you been to Tiandou City?" Du Bu Si asked back.

"Yes, the Sun-Moon Empire has been ready to make a move in recent years. Even I am very wary of their soul guides. Therefore, I came here this time to form an alliance with your Body Sect and the Heavenly Soul Empire in advance and make preparations."

"Of course, we must first go to Tiandou City to find out the true strength of the Tianhun Empire's royal family and see if the emperor of the Tianhun Empire is a spineless dog who can bow his head and wag his tail to beg for mercy from the Sun and Moon Empire, or a wise ruler."

"But in my opinion, although the emperor of the Tianhun Empire cannot be called a wise ruler, he is not an incompetent emperor."

Du Bu Si laughed loudly, and then said: "It's not that simple, Dragon God Douluo, I'm afraid you are worried that you won't be able to hold on until the day of your death, so you want to find another way out for your Shrek Academy." "After all, this time Shrek Academy was defeated in the All-Continental High-Level Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition, and the news that the myth fell from the altar has spread all over the continent, and even my Body Sect knows about it."

“Even if the Sun-Moon Empire still had some respect for your Shrek Academy, now that respect has faded, what’s left is probably only the national hatred of being defeated thousands of years ago because of your Shrek Academy’s obstruction.”

Moon did not deny it, but sighed deeply: "Then how is the situation of your Benti Sect different from that of my Shrek Academy?"

"You think your martial souls are unique, and they are even more powerful after the second awakening. You don't bother to learn about soul guides. You follow the example of your superiors, so you don't know."

"But the soul guides developed by the Sun-Moon Empire today are something that even an Ultimate Douluo like me, in my prime, would need to be wary of."

"Besides, because my Shrek Academy has been suppressing the evil soul masters that appeared in the three kingdoms of Douluo Continent over the years, a large number of evil soul masters have poured into the Sun-Moon Empire and are lurking there."

"Perhaps quite a few evil soul masters have established some kind of cooperative relationship with the Sun-Moon Empire. By then, what will happen to the combination of evil soul masters and soul guides?"

"If the day of all-out war really comes, and we have no allies on the Douluo Continent, how will your Body Sect continue?"

Du Bu Si frowned and thought about it. If an ordinary person said it, he would not believe it without seeing it with his own eyes. You know, in his opinion, how could the so-called soul guide be as powerful as the original martial soul?
But the person in front of him is Moon, the master of the Sea God Pavilion, Dragon God Douluo Moon. Even if he is an opponent, he must be respected.

Such people may tell lies based on their own standpoints, but the existence of soul guides does not need to be whitewashed.

Moreover, the evil soul master that Moon mentioned was indeed a hidden danger. The evil soul master's strength improved rapidly. What's more weird is that even if they reach a higher level, as long as the evil soul master can break through, their combat effectiveness will still be strong.

If it is combined with the soul guide that Moon mentioned, then it is indeed worth being wary of.

"And this time, I came here with good intentions." Moon En did not continue talking about the soul guides and evil soul masters. He had already given a reason, and Du Bu Si would naturally find a way to verify it himself afterwards.

Next, it was time to get down to business. While Du Bu Si was thinking, Moon continued, "Du Bu Si, do you want a disciple?"

"Disciple, what do you mean?" Du Bu Si asked with some confusion.

"When our Shrek Academy participated in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition, there was a student named Huo Yuhao in the reserve team. His martial soul was his original martial soul, the Spirit Eye. I believe you should be aware of this."

"But the information may be a little different from what you have learned. I only recently realized the extraordinary nature of this student."

"His martial spirit has now completed its second awakening independently. You should know that this is without the help of others."

"You should know the value of this matter better than I do."

Hearing this, Du Bu Si's eyes widened: "What did you say? Are you serious?"

Compared to Xuan Zi, who is only half-baked, Moon En has a deeper understanding of the Body Sect, so he understands better how amazing the value that Huo Yuhao has shown in the Body Martial Soul is.

The spontaneous second awakening of the original martial soul can only mean two things. Either Huo Yuhao is too lucky and awakens successfully by chance, or Huo Yuhao is gifted and his martial soul is of extraordinary quality.

But no matter which one it is, the soul master who successfully awakens his original martial soul for the second time is the target that the Body Sect must win over and accept as a disciple.

Because the degree of importance of the two within the Body Sect is completely different: the successful second awakening of the Body Soul and the incomplete second awakening.

The original martial soul that can complete the second awakening can at best achieve a silver-level awakening after becoming a Titled Douluo, and the original martial soul that can complete the second awakening independently can at worst become a gold-level second-awakening Super Douluo.

"Yes, this is the sincerity of our Shrek Academy. If you are willing to form an alliance with our Shrek Academy to deal with the war that the Sun-Moon Empire may launch in the future, then our Shrek Academy will make the connection and let this disciple willingly join your Body Sect."

“You should know that in our Shrek Academy, there has never been a student whose main martial spirit has awakened for the second time. If we are unwilling to let go, this is also a very important research topic and a future mainstay that can be cultivated.”

"Get lost, get lost, you Shrek guys don't know shit, it would be a shame if such a genius fell into your hands."

"Well, I'll go with you to Shrek Academy and see for myself whether Huo Yuhao is as talented as you say."

Moon shook his head: "The poison won't kill us. We are all not three-year-old children anymore. You should understand what I mean. If you don't want to, we can just go our separate ways."

"For us at Shrek Academy, even if we cannot form an alliance with the Body Sect, we can still strive for other forces that were originally part of the three kingdoms on Douluo Continent."

Du Bu Si said, "We can form an alliance, but we only have the same interests when it comes to dealing with the Sun Moon Empire. Normally, we will still each take care of our own business and not interfere with each other."

“Also, when can you let me meet Huo Yuhao? You are not planning to let him stay in your Shrek Academy until graduation? By then, there will be no need to train him anymore!”

Moon forced a smile on his old face. "Of course, we don't need to say much about the alliance, but this student was born an orphan. After he entered school, he also joined a sect, which was the Tang Sect, the number one sect on the continent."

“Although the Tang Sect has been defeated now, if we want them to convert, we still need to carefully calculate the compensation for their original sect and the resources that Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect have invested in their training over the years.”

Looking at Moon who seemed to have lost all his dignity, Du Bu Si's veins bulged at the corners of his eyes. At the same time, he also knew that the so-called Tang Sect, the former number one sect in the continent, had even lost its own clan territory and was a complete empty shell.

But even this has to be brought up. The reason why Moon is so embarrassed is that he wants to gain more benefits for Shrek. It seems that he really doesn't have much time left.

After a long time, Moon finally left with satisfaction, leaving Du Bu Si alone in the main hall of the Body Sect, gritting his teeth.

Although the conditions offered would only be fulfilled after Huo Yuhao’s potential was confirmed, it would still be a considerable expense for the Body Sect after they were fulfilled, enough to make Du Bu Si feel distressed.
