Chapter 422 Level 99 Limit Douluo, Undying from Poison

He carefully channeled his soul power, attempting to dismantle the wall.

To his surprise, although the Starfall Iron Wall was incredibly sturdy, under his skillful control as a level nine Soul Master, the metal particles that made up the wall began to loosen slowly, and then receded to both sides like quicksand, revealing a gap that could only allow one person to pass through.

Jing Hongchen stepped in and immediately saw Ji Juechen sitting cross-legged in the center, his eyes closed, his aura as deep and unfathomable as a bottomless abyss.

Seeing that Ji Juechen was unharmed and simply immersed in deep insights, Jing Hongchen breathed a slight sigh of relief, but then her expression turned somewhat grim.

This chief of the Mingde Hall's actual control department, the most outstanding sword genius among the younger generation of the empire, actually entered a state of enlightenment again because of his sparring with Lin You!
This is certainly a good thing, indicating that Ji Juechen has extremely high talent and comprehension. But conversely, does this also mean that Lin You's realm has far surpassed Ji Juechen's, even exceeding his comprehension, to the point that he can casually trigger Ji Juechen's sword comprehension and cause him to break through his bottleneck?

The thought sent chills down Jing Hongchen's spine.

Lin You's potential is terrifying, far exceeding his expectations.

If left to grow unchecked, it may one day become the biggest obstacle to the empire's unification of the continent, an insurmountable enemy!
However, he quickly thought of some recent rumors.

"I heard that Lin You has been spending a lot of time with His Highness the Crown Prince these past two days..." Jing Hongchen's mind raced.

With that Crown Prince's great talent and ruthless methods, I wonder if he can completely win over this brilliant yet mysterious young genius and bring him under his wing?
"Hopefully... there's a chance," Jing Hongchen sighed inwardly.

He waved his hand, signaling his men to guard the place closely and not allow anyone to disturb Ji Juechen's seclusion.

Then, he turned and left, lost in thought.

Not far away, Jing Hongchen couldn't help but think of his grandson Xiao Hongchen and granddaughter Meng Hongchen, who were exchange students at Shrek Academy.

"The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament, four years from now..."

He looked up at the sky and sighed again, "When the time comes, Xiao'er, Meng'er, how will you... fight against such a monster?"

Yes, a monster.

Even he, a ninth-level Soul Master and the dignified master of Mingde Hall, had to use the word "monster" to describe Lin You after truly witnessing his endless methods and unfathomable special abilities.

……

Just as Lin You was in seclusion cultivating at the alchemy research base, and Jing Hongchen was deeply worried about the future of the empire.

Far within the territory of the Sun and Moon Empire, atop a range of rolling mountains.

A man of exceptionally muscular build, bald, with a long, dark green beard, and bulging muscles exuding a fierce aura, stood with his hands behind his back on the edge of the cliff, his gaze sharp as lightning as he stared into the distance towards Mingdu. He was none other than the infamous Sect Master of the Body Sect, the "Poison Overlord of the World," whose poison was said to be "Undying!"

Beside him stood a dozen or so men and women with equally powerful auras and sharp, piercing eyes. These people were all top elders and core disciples of the Body Sect, with the lowest cultivation level being an eight-ring Soul Douluo, and several of them were terrifying beings at the Title Douluo level.

Such a massive force, if it were to suddenly appear in any country, would be enough to unleash a catastrophe.

On the other side of the poison-ineffective group stood a figure whose style was completely different from that of the group of vicious people.

The man was tall, but dressed in tattered clothes that made him look like a beggar. He held a nearly eaten, plump chicken leg in one hand and carried an old-fashioned wine gourd in the other. He would occasionally tilt his head back and take a sip, looking relaxed and carefree, as if he were not in a dangerous place but strolling in his own backyard.

The Vice Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion at Shrek Academy, the Vice Head of the Shrek Inspection Team, and the Gluttonous Douluo Xuan Lao!
"Hmph, a bunch of ants, trying to stop me with their junk? They're delusional!"

Poison Undying's gaze swept across the mountains below, past the faintly visible military fortresses and soul-guided detectors along the border of the Sun Moon Empire, and he let out a disdainful sneer.

These high-level Soul Masters, especially those from the Body Sect who specialize in physical cultivation, are almost useless against radar-like detection Soul Tools when they are determined to infiltrate, especially with the help of Shrek Academy's specially made "aura concealment Soul Tools".

Elder Xuan downed the last mouthful of wine, wiped his greasy mouth, let out a burp, and said, "Alright, Poisonous Old Monster, now that we've arrived safely, let's part ways here. I still need to meet up with the experts sent by the Star Luo, Heavenly Soul, and Dou Ling kingdoms. After we reunite, we'll discuss our next move."

He glanced at Du Busi and the members of the Body Sect behind him, his tone becoming more serious: "This mission is of utmost importance. You Body Sect must not mess up the area under your responsibility. If we alert the higher-ups of the Sun Moon Empire in advance and they become prepared, it will be much more difficult for us to achieve our goal."

Upon hearing this, Poison Undying snorted coldly and glanced sideways at Elder Xuan: "Instead of worrying about me, you should worry about yourself more, Xuanzi! The Imperial Palace is indeed a den of dragons and tigers, fraught with danger, but the Holy Spirit Cult is no pushover either. With the resources of your Shrek Academy, that old bastard Mu En can at most hold off one of them. As for the other one, besides me, there are probably few on this continent who can fight him! You, Xuanzi... Hmph, not good enough!"

Elder Xuan's forehead veins throbbed from the provocation of these words.

Du Busi must have had some incredible luck, or perhaps he ate some miraculous elixir. Not long ago, his cultivation broke through the shackles that had plagued him for years, and he forcefully stepped into the level 99 Limit Douluo realm!

Xuanzi, on the other hand, had been stuck at the peak of level 98 for many years, still unable to even touch the edge of that final window. Now, being overpowered by this old monster, he felt his blood pressure soaring.

However, it was a fact that his cultivation level was inferior to others. Although Elder Xuan was frustrated, he couldn't say much. He could only suppress his anger and said in a deep voice, "The Imperial Palace is the core of the Sun Moon Empire and has the strongest defense. Naturally, it needs you, a newly promoted Limit Douluo, to oversee and suppress it. As for the Holy Spirit Sect, Elder Mu... has his own plan!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Elder Xuan stopped entangled with Poison Undying and disappeared into the forest like a ghost.

After Elder Xuan left, a burly man with dark gold skin, as if cast in metal, stepped forward and respectfully asked, "Sect Master, what is our next move?"

Upon hearing this, Poison Undying let out a deafening burst of wild laughter: "Hahaha! The crucial moment of the plan hasn't arrived yet, so fighting and killing now is too boring! I heard that evil soul masters are rampant in this area. Pass down the order: without revealing our main objective, let the brothers have some fun in this Sun Moon Empire territory... Let these self-righteous evil soul masters know what true power is!"
