Douluo Dalu: The Eyes That Defy Fate

Chapter 192 Moon's Awakening

Just as the Shrek team was getting ready, Lin Po and Du Busi, the fastest of them all, had already reached a distance of fifty kilometers from Shrek.

While waiting for the main force to arrive, he meditated to recover his soul power.

Thanks to the powerful regenerative ability of the Yin-Yang Soul Core, Lin Po's recovery speed was not much slower than Du Busi's. Almost simultaneously, the two opened their eyes.

"Young man Lin, you're quite something! Your flying speed is almost 80% as fast as mine!"
"Is that thing on your back an external soul bone? I can't tell what kind of soul beast produced it."

Du Bu Si's slightly curious question did not arouse Lin Po's dissatisfaction or taboo, since it was impossible to go a lifetime without using something like an external soul bone.

He used to avoid trouble, but now he can solve the root of the problem.

"I guess so. It didn't look like this before. It turned into this after I got back my first martial soul."

"I see. Hmm? The number one martial soul?! You have twin martial souls?!"

The previously carefree Poison Undying suddenly opened his eyes wide, and his voice unconsciously rose considerably.

"Huh? Didn't I tell you?"

"When did you ever tell me that?!"

Lin Po then realized that he hadn't told him that he had twin martial souls, and waved his hand dismissively.

"Hey, twin martial souls aren't worth much either. I know of several that have them."

Upon hearing this, Poison Immortal's eyes widened even more, and his breathing became more rapid.

There are actually several more?!

"Tell me quickly, who are they? I'll go and bring them back!"

Even though the Body Sect only recognizes the Body Martial Soul, they still value twin Martial Souls.

If you casually add a few hundred thousand-year soul rings to your second martial soul, how many people in the world can rival you?

"Me, Vina, Yuhao, Yuhao's little girlfriend, and my little girlfriend."

So don't overthink it, they're all mine.

With each name Lin Po uttered, Du Bu Si's enthusiasm waned until he finally collapsed to the ground, utterly undignified and unable to rise again.

"Kid Lin, you're something else! You must have collected all the twin martial souls on the continent. Are you some kind of collector?"

"Let's put that aside for now. First, explain to me how you even know the term 'collector'?!"

Lin Po, whose hobby had been exposed, remained unfazed and seized upon the loophole in Du Bu Si's words to retaliate.

If he remembered correctly, the term "collecting addiction" only appeared in a storybook that Xiao Hongchen had read some time ago, and it has only recently become popular.

How did this old codger who never leaves his house know that?
Lin Po's question indeed silenced Du Busi. Wasn't he thinking of mocking Lin Po? How did it turn into talking about him?

Are you suggesting I make him admit that he's recently become obsessed with male-oriented fiction?

In the end, all I could do was say resentfully:
"Hmph! What right do you have to tell me what to do!"

Seeing that the poison hadn't killed him, Lin Po immediately confirmed that his guess was correct, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly:

'If even the Limit Douluo is like this, it's no wonder that Wu San can make a fortune from this line of work.'

Recently, they've expanded their operations even further. In a few more years, the wealth they've accumulated will likely be enough to rival that of a nation.

At this point in his thoughts, Lin Po's expression became subtle.

I don't know where Wu San found this talent. The previous alchemist was outrageous enough, but this unorthodox level eight soul master is even more outrageous.

Instead of studying perfectly good soul tools, they specifically researched various self-destruction methods of soul guidance arrays.

As a result, with Wu San's unlimited financial support, he actually managed to figure out some tricks of the trade.

Now it's possible to detect nothing during normal inspections, but once the soul tool is activated and a certain amount of soul power is input, the various magic arrays in the soul tool will be interconnected, producing an explosion equivalent to a lower-tier soul-guided cannonball.

It's unimaginable how the Shrek Academy members would react after activating their soul tools and getting blown up in the face by their own people.

Suppressing a laugh, Lin Po began to mentally connect with another girlfriend who had worked tirelessly for him for a long time.

"Little Kite, are you there? How's the Golden Tree going?"

The next second, a voice filled with shyness and exasperation immediately rang in Lin Po's mind.

"Not bad. Last night, I threw the messy energy belonging to the Blue Silver Emperor from the Golden Tree onto that old geezer inside the tree."

"However, that Blue Silver Emperor was, after all, the mother of the Asura God, and its power contained a great deal of divinity. This allowed the old man to recover from his injuries as a result of the misfortune."

Lin Po was amused upon hearing this. How come this girl's mouth is so sharp now? Is this a blessing in disguise?
The injury can indeed be healed, but that consumes the little life force that Moon has left. It's a miracle that the remaining chaotic energy didn't kill Moon.

"What about the realm of gods? Has anything unusual happened recently?" "No...no."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

The girl's questioning tone piqued Lin Po's curiosity, prompting him to quickly ask her a follow-up question.

"How should I put it? I feel like Tang San has been unusually quiet lately."

"Old Lin Po, do you think it's possible that Tang San is currently preoccupied with something and doesn't have the mind to keep an eye on Douluo Star?"

"Maybe. But let's not let our guard down. Xiao Yuan, if you persevere for a while longer, in five years at most, you won't have to keep an eye on the God Realm every day."

"Hmm~"

With a shy reply, the girl from the world once again took the initiative to disconnect, causing Lin Po to chuckle repeatedly.

"This girl is both proactive and shy."

"Hmm? Lin, what have you been muttering to yourself about just now?"

Lin Po smiled slightly, stood up, looked in the direction they had come from, and said softly:
"I mean, they're here."

As soon as he finished speaking, a series of whooshing sounds rang out from the horizon, and more than forty figures appeared in mid-air one after another.

"Sect Master! Elder Lin!"

Seeing that his own people had arrived, Du Busi suppressed his urge to attack immediately and called everyone down to recover their soul power.

After settling everyone in, Lin Po slowly walked to Du Busi's side, a mischievous grin on his face, and said:

"Old man, I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"

Du Bu Si glanced at Lin Po, who had ill intentions, and rolled his eyes in annoyance.

"good news!"

"Moun doesn't have much life left; he's about to die."

"What about the bad news?"

“Moun’s injuries have healed, and he can fight at full strength for about an hour.”

"Huh?! What's going on?"

Lin Po burst into laughter at the sight of Du Bu Si's changing expression, and only spoke again after he had finished laughing.

"Shrek has a golden tree, right? That thing helps him recover, but it consumes his own life force."

"If I estimate, the remaining life force would be barely enough to last an hour."

"All you need to be careful about is that old guy dragging you into self-destruction."

As soon as he finished speaking, Du Bu Si's expression became somewhat solemn. Even he had to take seriously the fact that a dying person was risking self-destruction.

"Alright, I understand! If I were to fall here because of carelessness, I would have no face to meet the ancestors of the Body Sect."

Seeing this, Lin Po nodded in satisfaction. He was also afraid that the poison might not kill him, and that Mu En's self-destruction would drag him down with him.

Such a good henchman can't just be killed here.

. . .

"Subjects of the Body Sect, depart for Shrek Academy!"

Before long, with the issuance of an order, the members of the Body Sect took to the air once again.

This time, however, Lin Po and Du Busi did not set off first, but instead led many elders and disciples to slowly fly towards Shrek Academy.

Even the slow-witted Shrek Academy, located a hundred miles away, managed to detect the approaching Body Sect.

Just as they were preparing to meet the enemy, a terrifyingly violent aura suddenly erupted from the Golden Tree.

At the last moment before the sect's gates, Mu En emerged from seclusion.

Xuanzi and the others were naturally overjoyed and took to the air to pay their respects.

"Elder Mu! You've finally emerged from seclusion!"

However, the kind-faced old man, who was usually so gentle, had lost all his kindness this time. His eyes were filled with disappointment, confusion, and regret as he looked at Xuanzi and the others.

Finally, under everyone's gaze, all the words he wanted to say turned into a long sigh as he looked up to the sky.

"Alas, it's all about timing and fate."
