Douluo: The Peerless King of Beast Tamers

Chapter 225: Mu Lao came out of retreat and successfully extended his life
The effect of the soul technique created a huge storm in the hall of Poseidon Pavilion, bringing unparalleled shock to everyone.

Especially Zhang Lexuan, Ma Xiaotao and others, their inner excitement was hard to suppress.

They are naturally gifted and have a promising future as soul masters. They will have a great chance of obtaining souls in the future.

This new soul method undoubtedly paves a more solid path for their future. It can greatly increase their foundation and give them more power in their pursuit of powerful strength.

While everyone was immersed in the excitement about the soul method, Ling Luochen's ultimate ice also successfully attracted everyone's attention.

However, the reaction caused by the extreme ice this time was not as strong as that caused by the soul method.

After all, in the hall of the Sea God Pavilion where many powerful people gathered, Zhou Sichen, a demon-like existence, needless to say, long before Ling Luochen, Ye Guyi and Ma Xiaotao were already the owners of ultimate attributes.

The power of the ultimate attribute has already left a strong mark in the long history of Shrek Academy.

Once upon a time, among the ancestors of Shrek Academy, there were three great men with ultimate attributes. Relying on their ultimate strength, they overcame all obstacles along the way, and eventually all of them reached the peak realm of level ninety-nine Peerless Douluo, becoming the undisputed strongest men on the continent in their time.

Today, there are already three soul masters with ultimate attributes in Shrek Academy. With the addition of Zhou Sichen, a demon who can be regarded as a leader, the prosperity of the academy is already on the verge of surpassing the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils ten thousand years ago.

Such a glorious scene made everyone sigh that the once unattainable dream of creating a god now seemed like nothing more than an illusory fantasy.
This is clearly a forward-looking angel investment, and they are witnessing the rise of a great era.

Zhou Sichen used the Book of Contract martial spirit as a template to create a unique and powerful soul method. This feat made all the powerful people present here sincerely admire Mu Lao's original decision in their hearts.

Shrek Academy has stood on the continent for ten thousand years. For a long time, it has always adhered to the principle of keeping itself out of trouble and has not had too much contact with any forces.

Even though the Tang Sect gradually declined over the years, Shrek Academy adhered to this principle and did not lend a helping hand.

However, everything changed after Zhou Sichen became Mu's apprentice.

Mr. Mu acted decisively and made the final decision, making Shrek Academy a solid backing for Zhou Sichen and the starting point for his unification of the continent.

And now, the various gains that Zhou Sichen has brought to Shrek Academy have proved with facts how wise and correct Mu Lao's original decision was.

Just as everyone was having a heated discussion on how to promote the soul method, a golden light suddenly appeared in the hall of Poseidon Pavilion, and a rich breath of light rushed towards them like a surging tide.

The two souls beside Ling Luochen and Gong Yangmo, which were originally majestic and imposing, suddenly became like little animals that were extremely frightened, trembling and clinging to their masters.

Then, Elder Mu's voice, as gentle as the spring breeze, slowly rang out in the Sea God Pavilion: "Si Chen, the Soul Method is of great significance, but now is not the best time to promote it."

As Mu Lao's voice fell, Mu Lao's figure had already sat firmly on the originally vacant main seat.

At this moment, Mr. Mu was in good spirits, and his previous gloomy state had disappeared without a trace.

Although Mr. Mu's back was still not completely straight, his whole body exuded an unprecedented vitality, as if all the vicissitudes of life had been swept away at this moment.

Seeing this, all the members of the Sea God Pavilion, led by Elder Xuan, stood up respectfully and said in unison: "Elder Mu, you are out of retreat."

Zhou Sichen looked at the teacher's current condition and couldn't help but smile with relief: "Teacher, it seems that you have recovered well."

Old Mu sat quietly in the main seat, his pair of eyes that had experienced many vicissitudes of life were full of sparkling light, as if the old man had regained a little youthful vigor.

Mu Lao had a kind smile on his face and said slowly: "The effect of the Gold of Life is indeed amazing. In my current state, it is more than enough for me to stay in Shrek for another 20 to 30 years."

After hearing what Mr. Mu said, everyone in the hall, except Ling Luochen and Gong Yang Mo who knew nothing about the Gold of Life, showed excitement.

The reason why Mr. Mu went into seclusion this time was entirely to make use of the drop of gold of life that Zhou Sichen had brought back after going through "untold hardships".

At first, let alone several deans, even senior strong men like Old Xuan only thought that this gold of life could at most help Old Mu stabilize his gradually declining physical condition and allow him to maintain a better mental state in a limited time.

However, he never expected that such a tiny drop could contain such amazing energy, which directly extended Mr. Mu's life span by 20 to 30 years.

Xuanzi knows Mu Lao's physical condition best.

Originally, under the erosion of time, Mu Lao's vitality was like a candle in the wind, and he had only three to five years left at most. Every breath he took seemed like the final struggle against fate.

But now, the old Mu in front of him seemed like a different person. Not only was he in good spirits, but even his every move revealed a long-lost vitality, and his condition was many times better than before.

In everyone's mind, as long as Mr. Mu sits firmly in charge, Shrek Academy will be like having an indestructible guardian god, which can unite people's hearts and deter powerful enemies outside, truly making it strong inside and out.

Among the older generation, there is Elder Mu, who relies on the light of the sea god and the protection of the golden ancient tree to be in charge of Shrek, making the academy have an unshakable position on this continent and invincible in the world.

Among the younger generation, Zhou Sichen and three gifted sons of heaven with ultimate attributes are galloping across the board, looking down on their peers.

Such a strong team of talents made everyone imagine that the current Shrek Academy might be able to create even more brilliant achievements than the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils ten thousand years ago.

Thinking of this, everyone smiled sincerely and said in unison: "Congratulations, Mr. Mu."

Moon nodded slightly and said gently, "Please sit down. I heard what you discussed earlier."

Everyone then took their seats and turned their eyes to Mr. Mu who was sitting in the main seat.

Mu Lao's eyes slowly swept over the crowd, and finally landed on Zhou Sichen, and asked: "Sichen, what do you think?"

Zhou Sichen looked respectful and slowly replied, "Teacher, my thoughts are similar to yours. Now is indeed not the best time to promote the Soul Method."

He paused for a moment, sorted out his thoughts, and continued, "Because the key to the success of the Soul Method is the mutual support of the soul master and the contracted soul beast. If we cannot reach a cooperation with the high-level soul beast clan and get the cooperation of the soul beast, the implementation of the Soul Method will be difficult."

After hearing Zhou Sichen's words, everyone woke up from their dream and realized that they had overlooked such a crucial point. Thinking about it carefully, it was mainly because Ling Luochen and Gong Yangmo had a very smooth process in the process of contracting soul beasts and did not encounter any obstacles in this regard, so that everyone was excited and forgot about this important factor.

After all, the Ice Jade Scorpion and Ice Soul Two-headed Dragon that they had contracted had already been trained by Zhou Sichen in advance and obediently signed the contract with them.

If he was just looking for soul beasts in the Far North to practice the soul method, Zhou Sichen might be able to give it a try with the help of Ice Emperor.

However, the attributes of the soul beasts in the Far North are too single, most of them are ice and water attributes, which greatly limits the choice and development of soul masters.

In the vast area that originally belonged to Douluo Continent, the Star Dou Great Forest is undoubtedly the best choice, as there are many kinds of soul beasts with rich levels of strength, which can meet the needs of different soul masters.

But unfortunately, Zhou Sichen currently has no contact with the Star Dou Great Forest, and he still has a long way to go if he wants to promote the soul method there.

Mu Lao nodded gently, his eyes full of praise: "Yes, this is exactly what I am worried about. If you want to promote the soul method, you must first get the cooperation of the soul beast clan, and this requires considering the strong men of the soul beast clan."

As soon as the strong men of the soul beast clan were mentioned, the hall instantly became quiet and everyone's expressions became solemn.

Although soul beasts are not as gifted as humans and cannot quickly improve their strength through systematic learning and training like humans, they have a long lifespan.

During those long years, there also emerged a terrifying existence that was comparable to the Ultimate Douluo.

The strength of each of the ten most ferocious beasts on the list alone is enough to make a Super Douluo-level powerhouse feel fearful, not to mention the large number of hundred thousand year soul beasts, whose strength should not be underestimated either.

It is not easy to unite the soul beast clan.

Even though the soul law is beneficial to the development of the soul beast clan in the long run, soul beasts, like humans, have various contradictions and differences within themselves and are not monolithic.

In this case, one can imagine how difficult it would be to fully implement the soul method.

Seeing that everyone was lost in thought, Zhou Sichen continued, "But there is no need to rush. The soul method can be implemented in the inner courtyard first."

"The students in the inner courtyard are stronger and more receptive to new things. They are better able to adapt to and practice the soul method."

"At the same time, we can also try to contact the strong men of the soul beast clan to see if we can find a cooperation method that both parties can accept. Even if the process is difficult, as long as we take the first step, there is hope for success."

After hearing Zhou Sichen's suggestion, Mr. Mu did not respond immediately, but fell into a brief silence.

He closed his eyes slightly, and quickly sorted out the details and possible problems of promoting the soul method in his mind.

After a while, he slowly opened his eyes, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes, and after thinking for a while, he nodded, and then cast his gaze towards Xuan Lao and called out, "Xuan Zi."

When Elder Mu called his name, Elder Xuan's already upright posture instantly straightened up. He stood up without hesitation and responded in a loud and respectful voice, "Elder Mu."

Mu Lao looked calm and said softly: "You also understand the soul method. In a month, you will take Ling Luochen and Gong Yangmo to the Xingdou Great Forest."

"The purpose of this trip is to contact the soul beast clan to discuss the promotion of the soul law. Looking at the entire Douluo Continent, the Xingdou Great Forest is the most suitable place. There are many kinds of soul beasts there, but their forces may also be complicated. If we can get their support, the promotion of the soul law will have a key foundation.

Xuan Zi listened carefully, nodded solemnly, and said with a tone full of responsibility: "Understood."

After explaining this matter, Mr. Mu turned his attention to Ling Luochen and Gong Yangmo, who were feeling a little embarrassed.

It was inevitable that these two young men were a little nervous as they were surrounded by so many powerful people at such an important occasion in the Poseidon Pavilion.

Seeing this, Elder Mu said gently, "You have just obtained souls. For the next month, you should practice in the world under the golden tree."

"That is the most mysterious place in the academy with abundant spiritual energy. It will help you quickly adapt to the soul. After you have fully adapted to the soul, your souls will be the key when you go to the Xingdou Great Forest to negotiate."

"Soul beasts have a unique way of communicating. Your souls may be able to serve as a bridge of communication."

Ling Luochen and Gong Yangmo were very excited when they heard this. They nodded hurriedly, their voices trembling with excitement: "Okay, Mr. Mu, we will definitely live up to your expectations."

Being able to personally participate in such a top-level decision-making meeting of the college and to play a role in it, the two looked at each other and saw irrepressible excitement and pride in each other's eyes.

As Mr. Mu looked at the two excited little guys, the kind smile on his face became even brighter, as if he saw hope for the future of Shrek Academy.

Then, he turned his gaze to Zhou Sichen, his expression became serious, and asked: "Sichen, can anyone other than you perform the contract ceremony for this Soul Method? After all, this is related to whether the Soul Method can be widely promoted."

Zhou Sichen nodded without hesitation and explained seriously: "Yes, but this process requires a very high level of spiritual power from the soul master."

"When contracting a soul, the soul master's spiritual power needs to be deeply integrated with the soul beast's spiritual imprint. Any mistake will result in all the previous efforts being wasted, so only soul masters with spiritual attributes can learn it."

Hearing this, Mu Lao frowned slightly, with a worried look on his face: "The number of spirit attribute soul masters is too rare. The number of spirit attribute soul masters originally from the entire Douluo Continent is probably no more than a hundred, or even less."

"Moreover, the Soul Contract also has requirements for the depth of mental power. If we also consider that a certain mental foundation is required, I'm afraid that less than half of the people meet the requirements. In this way, the implementation of the Soul Law has become much more difficult."

"After all, your time is too precious to spend all on this matter."

Zhou Sichen looked at Mu Lao's worried expression, smiled slightly, and tried to comfort him: "Teacher, although the number is small, if we train them well, it should be enough for the time being."

"The spiritual power of spirit masters is stronger than that of other spirit masters. Spirit masters above the third ring level can do it after systematic training."

"Besides, the Soul Method has not yet been implemented. We still have time to train these spiritual soul masters and gradually improve the entire system."
