Chapter 98 Shrek's Great Change

The people of the Body Sect spent a lot of time going out to sea to search for their target.

However, most of the time was wasted wandering around in various sea areas. Now, it only took everyone half a month to head directly towards the mainland.

Along the way, Huo Yuhao was not idle either. With Du Bu Si beside him as a reference, his analysis of the soul core was almost coming to an end.

The reason why only Super Douluo can condense soul cores in this period has been mentioned before.

That is, the number of people who possess soul cores is too small. If it is simply summarized through experience, it is not enough to explore the essence of soul cores.

For Super Douluo, the reason why they can successfully condense their soul core when breaking through to Super Douluo is because at that time their bodies can no longer bear the growing soul power.

Therefore, it is necessary to use more efficient energy conversion methods to compress and condense one's soul power, freeing up the meridians and dantian in the body to store more soul power.

If one has the help of natural treasures or powerful external forces, then even without condensing a soul core, one can still forcibly break through the soul power to the Super Douluo level.

This was also the mainstream in Douluo Continent ten thousand years ago. At that time, there was not even the concept of soul core, so the number of Super Douluo was even scarcer than it is now.

However, after all, there is no essential leap from soul power to soul core, it is just a simple quantitative change. It is also for this reason that if one's foundation is solid enough and one has mastered the corresponding methods.

Even if one does not possess the vast amount of soul power of a Super Douluo, one can still condense the soul core in advance. The condensed soul core will bring a cultivation speed far beyond that of an ordinary soul master.

However, if one were to summarize how to condense a soul core based solely on experience, it would require at least a dozen Super Douluos to reveal the structure of their soul cores and study them simultaneously before they could summarize it into a general direction.

However, at present, no force on the Douluo Continent can gather more than a dozen Super Douluo at the same time, and no Super Douluo will choose to cooperate with other forces.

But for Huo Yuhao, he only needed to follow suit. With Du Bu Si by his side, he removed the parts of his soul core that were affected by Du Bu Si's own interference and the influence of his martial soul and body. The basic form that was left was the true structure of the soul core.

With the help of the soul core, Huo Yuhao's body can now carry stronger soul power. Only in this way can Huo Yuhao's perfect absorption of the soul ring of a hundred thousand year soul beast be supported.

However, at present, with the sixth ring cultivation level, it is still a bit troublesome to do all this, and the next best node is the seventh ring. With the help of the martial soul true body as a medium, integrating the soul power around the body and condensing the soul core, everything will come naturally.

Although Huo Yuhao can now try to forcibly condense his soul core, the benefits and risks are not equal, and it will also take up a lot of his time, so it is really not necessary.

The flowers bloom at two ends, one on each side.

While Huo Yuhao was doing very well in the Body Sect, the situation at Shrek Academy was not so good.

Although he did not have a conflict with Du Bu Si, Moon's injuries were not as serious as in the original book.

However, the arrival of the evil soul master forced Moon to take action, which consumed a considerable amount of his vitality.

In addition, in order to unite the forces of all parties, the reputation of Shrek Academy, which had fallen due to the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition, was consolidated.

The constant running around during these days made Moon even more exhausted, and because of this, Moon's lifespan was even shorter than in the original book.

Shrek Academy, Poseidon Pavilion.

Moon lay on the recliner, looking haggard, without even opening his eyes, and his whole body was breathing weakly.

Beside him were a group of elders from the Sea God Pavilion, led by Xuan Zi, including Yan Shaozhe, Xian Lin'er, and even those elders who had been in seclusion for years had now come out.

Outside the Poseidon Pavilion, more than eighty inner court disciples were sitting cross-legged in front of the pavilion door, without making any sound.

Leading the way is the eldest sister Zhang Lexuan from the inner courtyard. These are all inner courtyard disciples who are no more than 30 years old. Compared with the more than 60 people in the original book, Moon's selection criteria have been much more relaxed, so the talents have increased instead of decreased.

The only difference is that in the original novel, the new Shrek Seven Devils, led by Huo Yuhao, entered the Poseidon Pavilion to see Moon off.

Now, the Shrek Seven Devils, even Bei Bei, can only stay outside the Sea God Pavilion and wait quietly.

But what no one knew was that in addition to these people, in a secret room under the Poseidon Pavilion, there was a young girl who was quietly waiting for what was to happen next.

There was a dark flame burning in her eyes, and on her body were chains that looked like iron but were not. Each chain was covered with dense runes.

A long time passed like this.

With a sigh, Moon slowly opened his eyes. His dim pupils became clear again and he glanced at the elders of the Poseidon Pavilion around him.

Finally, his eyes fell on Xuan Zi. Looking at Moon's eyes, Xuan Zi felt very upset and at the same time, indescribable guilt surged into his heart.

He knew that Moon, his junior master-master, might really be in trouble today.

As for the future, even if Moon is unwilling, Shrek Academy must be handed over to him, the strongest man, to support it.

But just as Moon said, the years of punishment made him realize his shortcomings, or he already knew them, but knowing them was one thing, but how could he correct them?
When he thought of this, his thoughts became confused again and he wanted to drink again.

But because of Moon's punishment, he was banned from drinking. Whenever he thought of this, Xuanzi's thoughts would turn back to being banned from drinking and how he could drink good wine again.

Now that Moon is about to pass away, can Xuan Zi really support Shrek Academy? In Moon's eyes, Xuan Zi couldn't help but question himself, but it took a long time to come up with an answer.

But Moon seemed to have known this for a long time. He just shook his head slightly and sighed again, "I have spent almost all of my life in Shrek Academy."

"It's a pity that I can't hold on any longer. The future of Shrek Academy will be handed over to you. I hope you will work together and not let Shrek Academy fall into decline."

Some people felt sad, some felt lonely, and some felt indignant when they heard this.

In their opinion, Shrek Academy is the greatest academy in the entire continent, and this is absolutely beyond doubt. How could the failure of a mere competition lead to the decline of Shrek Academy?

Furthermore, with the strength and background of Shrek Academy, even if Mu Lao's death would cause a major blow, Mu Lao had not shown up on the mainland before.

This also proves that relying on the previous strength of Shrek Academy is enough to support this ten thousand year old academy.

But despite this, no one refuted Moon's words at this juncture. However, Moon was already old and experienced, so how could he not know what they were thinking?
Looking at the various emotions in these people's eyes, Moon could only sigh helplessly. Even though it was likely to be useless, he still had to continue to instruct: "Xuan Zi."

Upon hearing this, Xuanzi hurriedly squatted down beside Moon. Because of the punishment he had received these days, his energy and spirit had obviously weakened, and at this moment he was so emotional that he could hardly control himself.

“Xuan Zi, you are not young anymore. Don’t act so impulsively in the future. Even if I die, I will always protect our Shrek Academy.”

"But after I leave, the position of the leader of the Sea God Pavilion can only be succeeded by you, Xuanzi. While he is here, everything will be the same as mine."

Hearing this, the other elders all respectfully agreed, "Yes."

Only Xuan Zi seemed a little anxious and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Moon.

"In the current situation, there is no one more suitable than you, Xuanzi. Think twice before doing anything. The continent is changing rapidly now. If Shrek Academy cannot gain a firm foothold at this time, I am afraid it will really fall flat on its face."

"Xingluo Empire, Tianhun Empire, Douling Empire, Body Sect, Haotian Sect, Jiubao Liuli Sect" the names of countries, sects, and forces echoed in Moon's mouth.

Then Moon shook his head gently: "Keep to yourself. As long as the Sea God Pavilion is still there, the foundation of Shrek Academy will not be shaken. Xuanzi, don't be impulsive. Think twice, think twice."

Then Moon En explained the situation to Yan Shaozhe, Cai Meir, Xian Liner and Qian Duoduo in turn.

As for some of the truly core, or obscure, things that cannot be made public, Moon had already instructed Xuan Zi about them before.

Finally, Moon said, "As the leader of the Sea God Pavilion, I will issue one final order. From today on, we will focus on developing the Soul Guidance Department and promoting the integration of the Martial Soul Department and the Soul Guidance Department."

"In view of the high demand for funds from the Soul Guidance Department, 50% of the income from all the colleges and industries in Shrek City will be handed over to the Soul Guidance Department. If one day the Soul Guidance Department can produce a level 10 soul guide, then the position of Sea God Pavilion Master will be inherited by him."

Moon's voice spread throughout the entire Sea God Island, and all the elders stepped forward and knelt on one knee.

Just a level 10 soul master? The leader of Poseidon Pavilion?
At least it is impossible for it to appear in Xuanzi's generation, as for after Xuanzi?
When Moon's remaining prestige gradually faded away, Shrek Academy was ultimately an academy for soul masters, and only soul masters could be the leaders.

Moon finally sighed, as if to express all the resentment and worries in his heart.

Time, and more time. If only I could have more time, but unfortunately time waits for no one.

"Shrek's ancestors, Moon, are here."

Moon's voice became louder again, accompanied by a burst of golden light on his body. Nine soul rings, two yellow, one purple, three black, and three red, surrounded Moon. At the same time, an extremely loud dragon roar sounded.

A huge golden beam of light shot up into the sky, illuminating the entire Shrek Academy and Shrek City in gold.

Moon's face became younger, and his skinny and hunched body stood up straight and became strong again, but his figure gradually became illusory and turned back into his youthful appearance.

There was reluctance in his eyes, but he could not explain more and could not do anything else. Moon waved his hand gently and said goodbye to everyone.

In this state, Moon recovered to his prime, and then transformed into a huge white dragon. The golden light emanating from his body enveloped the entire Poseidon Island.

It even left its mark on Shrek Academy and Poseidon Pavilion. Apart from that, more waves of terrifying pressure spread to the outside world, especially the Star Dou Great Forest.

Everyone in Shrek Academy quickly sat down to meditate, seizing this crucial moment.

The legacy left by the death of an Ultimate Douluo can almost be regarded as the most precious thing in the world except for the inheritance of gods.

Even if there is more than one person enjoying this legacy, it is still an extremely rare and valuable experience.

At this time in the Star Dou Great Forest, facing Moon's demonstration, Di Tian just felt ridiculous.

If he wasn't afraid of the God Realm behind Shrek Academy, if he wasn't blocked by the rules of Douluo Star, a mere Ultimate Douluo wouldn't be able to survive a single move in his hands. How dare an ant like him demonstrate?

But Di Tian finally did not make any extra response. Now like a dragon swimming in shallow water and being bullied by shrimps, he just symbolically let out a dragon roar.

An extremely dense dark aura emerged, floated into the air and transformed into a dragon, covering up the pressure emanating from Moon's dragon roar.

However, compared to Shrek Academy, he has more important things to do now.

In the center of the Lake of Life, a forbidden place that even other ferocious beasts cannot enter, Di Tian looked at the red dragon egg in front of him, with a hint of hope in his eyes.

The only difference from before was that the crystal on the dragon egg that originally protected it and contained the essence of god-level fire dragon energy had now completely disappeared.

And this red dragon egg is eagerly absorbing the most refined life energy from the center of the Lake of Life in order to replenish itself.

"Humans, Shrek Academy, humph." Di Tian snorted coldly, and the place gradually became quiet.

However, Di Tian's inaction also made Moon quite satisfied at this time.

Although it was just a test, it could at least prove that Di Tian had no intention of launching an attack on Shrek Academy while he was dying. This was already the best case scenario.

Then the white dragon that Moon transformed into turned into golden light spots all over the sky and merged into the Poseidon Pavilion.

A huge golden tree appeared on the Poseidon Pavilion and gradually grew. Its roots covered the entire Poseidon Island, and the tree was a hundred meters high.

As the white dragon's figure disappeared, the aura of light surged, and the unprecedentedly rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth filled the entire Sea God Island. It was not until the light and shadow of the giant tree gradually converged that it became stable.

Everything is over. The strongest person of the current Shrek Academy, Ultimate Douluo, Master of Poseidon Pavilion, and Dragon God Douluo Moon has passed away.

And facing the wheel of time that is coming, facing the increasingly powerful Sun and Moon Empire.

How can Shrek survive now without the Son of Fortune and the Ultimate Douluo?
