Douluo Dalu: Immortal Dragon Clan

Within a dazzling golden space, Mu En had thought he would go to hell after death, but unexpectedly his soul arrived inside the Golden Tree—perhaps, the final resting place of every Sea God Pavilion Master is the Golden Tree, and only this place is the true final resting place for them, the dead.

Moon felt no fatigue or discomfort at the moment, so he began to explore the space.

"Is this the inside of the Golden Tree?"

He walked through the space, looking around, trying to find that familiar figure—his teacher.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, he found neither familiar faces nor any trace of the past pavilion masters, which puzzled Mu En.

Suddenly, a strong life force instantly attracted him.

He looked up and saw a vast amount of life energy swirling in the deepest part of the space, an intensity he had never seen before, as if that was the core area of ​​the Golden Tree.

Without the slightest hesitation, Moon walked straight there.

Meanwhile, the outside world was thrown into chaos by Moon's passing.

The elders were completely caught off guard; they never imagined that Moon would leave like this.

They had taken every precaution they could, fearing that Mu En would become enraged and die, but in the end, Mu En did not lose his temper and simply passed away peacefully. At this moment, the group of elders felt as if the sky were about to collapse.

At this moment, Elder Zhuang, who had just stabilized Long Xiaoyao's condition, walked out of the room.

He had originally planned to continue brewing medicine for Mu En, but upon hearing the news that Mu En had passed away, his heart sank.

He rushed to the conference room, looked at Mu En sitting there peacefully, and glared at Yan Shaozhe: "Yan Shaozhe! Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on your teacher?"

Despite his repeated warnings, this "young phoenix" ultimately ignored his words.
Shrek Academy being handed over to someone like this is simply...

Old Zhuang was unwilling to waste any more time on Yan Shaozhe, who was standing there in a daze. He hurriedly went forward to check on Mu En's condition, hoping to see if there was any possibility of saving him.

Shrek Academy cannot do without Moon, just as the Sun Moon Empire cannot do without Kong Deming!
At this moment, Mo Yan, who had just stepped out of the Sea God Pavilion, looked back and gazed at the towering golden tree. He asked the plane lord in his spiritual sea, "How is the situation?"

"I've arranged everything. After that guy died, I've already infused your flame into his soul. When that ingrate absorbs Moon's soul, he'll definitely be burned again, and it might even affect the soul's very origin!" The plane lord finished speaking and let out a strange "hehehe..." laugh.

The laughter left Mo Yan speechless: "When did you become so much like an evil soul master?"

"To deal with such an ingrate, I should strike hard!"

"Whatever makes you happy," Mo Yan said nonchalantly. In the end, she would use her flames to burn this place to the ground!
Inside the Golden Tree space, Moon had already arrived at the core area.

But his unease grew stronger—it was too quiet here. Apart from his own soul, he could not sense the presence of any other souls, not even the souls of the former sect leader and his master.

Why is it?
He clearly remembered that his master had stored his soul in the golden tree before he died.

Only a hundred or two hundred years have passed; a soul could not possibly disappear into thin air!

Suddenly, a woman's voice rang out in the space: "Welcome to the arrival of this generation's Sea God Pavilion Master. Your arrival here shows that you have made a great contribution to Shrek Academy, Pavilion Master Moon!"

Mu En hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound and saw a woman gazing at him tenderly.

The woman's appearance felt incredibly familiar to him, as if he had seen her somewhere before, but he couldn't quite place it.

"you are?"

Looking at the wary Mu En before her, Ah Yin smiled and introduced herself: "I am the embodiment of nature; you may call me the Lord of Nature." At this moment, Ah Yin, as the Blue Silver Emperor, had quickly entered the role she had created.

"The Lord of Nature?" Moon repeated softly, his eyes full of doubt.

“That’s right. The appearance of the Golden Tree symbolizes the awakening of me, the Lord of Nature. I have always guarded inside the Golden Tree, witnessing the protection of the academy by successive Pavilion Masters,” Ah Yin explained calmly.

"What about my master and all my predecessors? Where are their souls?" Mu En asked eagerly.

"They have already entered the cycle of reincarnation and been reborn," Ah Yin lied without changing her expression.

In reality, she was extremely weak at the moment and needed to devour the soul of a Limit Douluo to replenish her energy. Mu En in front of her was an excellent target—this genius who had once shocked the God Realm, although not as good as Sheng Yangyue, was enough to restore most of her power.

Mu En fell silent. He had thought he would see his master again, but he never expected that the master had already been reincarnated.

What about yourself?

"Then what do I do now?"

"Come into my arms, and I will guide you into reincarnation, to be reborn." Blue Silver Emperor A Yin's tone was more urgent.

Moon did not agree immediately.

The thought that Shrek Academy still had that pair of "Sleeping Dragon and Young Phoenix" in charge made him uneasy.

If he were to lose consciousness completely after death, he might not have many attachments. But now that his soul still exists within the Golden Tree, it means that he might still be able to do something for Shrek Academy.

"Lord of Nature, I don't want to reincarnate yet. I want to do more for Shrek Academy." Moon made his decision firmly.

Upon hearing this, Ah Yin's smile vanished instantly. Her purpose in coming here was to seize the soul of the Limit Douluo to nourish herself; otherwise, how could she help Xiao San in the future?

For the sake of the mistress, and for the future of Douluo Continent, she, Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin, absolutely cannot hold anyone back any longer.

In the past, Ah Yin might have chosen to compromise, but now she has no way out.

“Lord Mu’en, you are already dead, and you should no longer interfere in the affairs of the living.”

Before she finished speaking, the blue silver grass around Ah Yin began to spread wildly, wrapping around Mu En.

"Lord of Nature, what do you mean by this?" Mu En stared intently at the approaching Blue Silver Grass, already guessing the true identity of the woman before him—this Blue Silver Grass was no ordinary variety; among the Blue Silver Grass in the world, there existed a ruler named the Blue Silver Emperor!
The reason why the woman in front of him felt familiar was finally explained: her appearance was seven parts similar to that of Tang San, the ancestor of the Sea God.

So, she must be Tang San's ancestor's mother, the Blue Silver Emperor A Yin!
What alarmed him even more was that he sensed an incredibly familiar aura on those blue-silver vines.

"As the Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion, I should offer my soul to the Golden Tree and become nourishment for it. I hope Pavilion Master Mu En can understand this." Ah Yin was too lazy to pretend anymore. Her body was too weak to delay any longer.

“Didn’t you say before that they…” Moon’s words suddenly stopped.

When he sensed the aura emanating from the vines wrapped around his feet, he instantly understood—it was his master's aura!
In other words, the master's soul was also...

Therefore, the practice of successive pavilion masters "sacrificing" their souls to the Golden Tree was simply a hoax.
