Douluo: Dragon King's Divine Elegy

Chapter 140 Leng Yaozhu: As a virgin, I've never seen anything like this before.

"Bro, you're too awesome."

On the way to the Academic Affairs Office to get her student ID, Na'er secretly nudged Nan Liujing's waist with her elbow and transmitted her voice through her soul power.

"What's wrong?" Nan Liujing asked telepathically, his eyes fixed on her.

Na'er said excitedly, "You've arranged Gu Yue, Yuan En Ye Hui, Sister Xing Lan, and Wu Si Duo into the same class. They all have feelings for you. Aren't you afraid that if they start fighting, it will be hard to end?"

Nan Liujing smiled and said, "Isn't that what you're here for?"

"Me?" Na'er was taken aback.

Nan Liujing smiled and said, "For your brother's lifelong happiness, Na'er, you will help, right? After all, my Na'er is the best helper in the world."

Na'er's steps suddenly faltered, her beautiful and refined face flushed slightly.

The phrase "the best wife in the world" instantly struck her heart, and her heart began to beat faster involuntarily.

"Na'er is definitely her brother's most considerate little cotton-padded jacket."

The foodie girl thought to herself, "Speaking of which, am I the highest-ranking and most favored empress in an ancient costume drama? Helping the emperor manage the harem, hmm~ what a difficult yet exciting task. If Gu Yue doesn't listen to me in the future, I won't let her be chosen anymore."

Hey.

Na'er imitated a fly rubbing her face, a mischievous smile inadvertently appearing at the corner of her mouth.

Gu Yue, who was walking alongside, immediately became alert and asked, seemingly casually, "Are you talking about something?"

Nan Liujing said calmly, "I'm just curious why Na'er suddenly called you 'cousin'."

Gu Yue's eyes flickered slightly, and she said softly, "Senior brother, you may not know this, but Na'er and my family are related by marriage. Our two families are very close. However, when we travel outside, our family rules stipulate that disciples should try not to reveal their identities, so we have never recognized each other before."

“No wonder.” Nan Liujing said with a look of sudden realization.

“Brother, you don’t know this.” Na’er quickly took on the role of a good wife, “The elders in the family always talk about you.”

Gu Yue stared at her, wary of Na'er's possible tricks.

Nan Liujing willingly played along with her and asked curiously, "Why did you bring me up?"

Na'er made a surprising statement: "After my cousin became Aunt Leng's apprentice, and considering your performance in the Federation Grand Competition, some elders in the clan have been trying to talk to Aunt Leng about whether you and my cousin should get married."

Gu Yue paused, her bright, beautiful eyes flashing with a storm of emotions.

You idiot, what nonsense are you spouting?!

"Well done..." Nan Liujing gave him a thumbs up, then said solemnly, "Na'er, you can't say things like that carelessly."

Na'er shook her head: "I'm not making this up, that's what my aunt said."

"Purple Dragon Douluo?" Nan Liujing asked.

"Mmm." Na'er nodded repeatedly and continued her attack, immediately grabbing Gu Yue's arm and raising her fair and delicate face, "Cousin, what do you think about this?"

"I'll just punch you in the head..." Gu Yue glanced coldly at the sneaky Na'er, whose lips curled up, unfazed.

"My family intends to withdraw from the world, which is why we've set our sights on you, Senior Brother," Gu Yue said apologetically to Nan Liujing. "When I get home, I'll definitely explain things clearly to the elders in the clan to avoid any misunderstandings."

"It's time to make things clear."

Before Nan Liujing could respond, Na'er said seriously, "Otherwise, it wouldn't be good if it caused Xinglan to misunderstand."

A ripple appeared in Gu Yue's clear eyes, and for some reason, her breathing became somewhat difficult.

She wasn't unaware of Ye Xinglan's hostility during dinner that night.

"Alright." Nan Liujing knew when to stop. "What the elders think is none of our business. Just do what you want to do. Gu Yue, you don't need to worry about this."

"Brother, I want to eat your cooking tonight."

Nan Liujing turned to leave, and Na'er decisively grabbed his arm and said coquettishly.

"What do you want to eat? Make a note for me, and I'll show you something special tonight." Nan Liujing decided to treat his great contributor, Na'er, to a lavish meal.

“Okay.” Na’er turned her head and raised an eyebrow at Gu Yue, who was clearly not in a good mood.

When the two suddenly understood each other, Gu Yue clenched her fist tightly.

Na'er didn't say anything, but she understood.

You can't win!

I can't win?

Then we’ll see!
...

Amidst much anticipation, the Spirit Transmission Academy officially opened, with a total of 600 students, a rather large scale.

Six hundred people became the maximum number of students that Chuanling Academy could recruit in the future.

On the day the opening ceremony ended, the various welfare policies of Chuanling Academy were exposed by multiple media outlets, instantly causing an uproar.

The official website released photos showing the accommodation area, which resembled a villa complex, with top-notch teaching resources and a variety of high-nutrition meals that students could eat to their heart's content without spending any money. It must have made many people envious.

Some young soul masters who had registered in advance for academies such as the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy were so frustrated they wanted to beat their chests and stomp their feet, wishing they could give themselves a good beating.

Therefore, a chain reaction occurred.

Top universities have begun to increase their internal investment. Overall, the benefits of Chuanling Academy have indirectly led other universities to improve their own benefits.

The story of the Spirit Transmission Academy has officially begun, and for Nan Liujing, there is so much to do.

Spirit Transmission Academy, a secluded cultivation room in the cultivation area.

As always, Leng Yaozhu wore a dark red dress, her bright and beautiful face complementing her exquisite curves, making her a pleasing sight to behold.

She said to her disciple, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, "I never expected that you would condense a soul core at the Soul King stage. Are you sure you're okay?"

"Don't worry, teacher." Nan Liujing looked at his bright and beautiful teacher and smiled. "I absorbed a lot of energy from abyssal creatures in the training camp. These things are hard to use to improve cultivation, but they are very effective in boosting blood and qi. I plan to take this opportunity to condense a life soul core in one go."

Leng Yaozhu's eyebrows still held a hint of worry, but seeing her disciple's confidence, she couldn't object: "Alright, then your teacher will stay here to protect you."

"Thank you, teacher," Nan Liujing said.

With his eyes closed, Nan Liujing's consciousness wandered within his spiritual sea, where a special silver light cluster was sealed—the very source energy of the Plague Emperor's level that Gu Yue had used to save him.

This seal is not completely secure. As the master of the Sea of ​​Spirit, Nan Liujing can open a crack in it and slowly absorb the power of origin.

If it were a Title Douluo or higher, Nan Liujing could have swallowed it whole, but he couldn't now because his cultivation level was too low, so his fusion was limited. He could only cooperate with the Golden Ancient Tree to exchange for benefits.

"Mr. Jin!"

The thought spread, and an aged voice quickly came: "You said, and I will cooperate fully." Nan Liujing said: "Elder Jin, I will condense the soul core next. I hope that during this time you can give me the inheritance of the Child of Nature in the form of an energy soul bone."

Jin asked in confusion, "An energy soul bone?"

Nan Liujing said, "I intend to condense the life soul core in my heart, that is, in the middle dantian. The energy soul bone is mainly used to fuse with the heart. It can not only further strengthen the soul core, but also provide feedback to the heart, killing two birds with one stone."

"I understand." Elder Jin suddenly realized, "When you condense your soul core, just call me."

“Okay.” The other party readily agreed, and Nan Liujing was equally quick to agree. “Once the soul core is fully condensed, I will remove the seal and transfer the abyss's primal energy to you.”

"No rush, finish your business first." Old Jin said with a smile. Relying on the relationship with the spirit of the plane, it absolutely trusted Nan Liujing.

"Oh, right." Nan Liujing remembered something and reminded him, "When Elder Jin makes his move, he must hide himself and not attract the attention of those people from Shrek Academy."

Jin Laodao said, "Don't worry, I understand."

After the conversation, Nan Liujing immediately started work.

Use your mental energy to focus your inner vision on the dantian, which is the heart area.

It was clear that the soul power flowing there was extremely dense and swirled, giving it the appearance of the eye of a storm.

In this era, top-tier Soul Masters condense their Soul Cores around level 70 without exception, while slightly less skilled Soul Masters can condense them at the eighth or ninth ring.

If a Soul Master's Soul Power can be condensed to the point that it forms a vortex shape, then it means that they have the basic conditions to condense a Soul Core.

One of the tricky problems in condensing a soul core is whether the soul master's physique can support the constant collapse, condensation, expansion, and flow of soul power. If the process goes wrong, the condensation will fail and the master will suffer a backlash.

Another problem is that after the initial formation of the soul core is condensed, you must continuously use your mental power to maintain its operation. You cannot stop until the soul core is completely stable, otherwise all your efforts will be in vain.

Under Nan Liujing's careful control, the seal broke open, and abyssal essence of considerable quality flowed out.

Under his guidance, these abyssal energies were continuously transformed into the power of blood and qi, some of which protected the body, while others crashed into the soul power vortex at the heart, causing the soul power vortex to collapse at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Suddenly, Nan Liujing's body emitted a muffled rumbling sound, which even startled Leng Yaozhu. She was fully focused and knew that her disciple had begun the process of condensing energy.

The collapse is like refining essence; during the process, soul power continuously transforms into near-solid energy. After the first round of collapse, typically four or five parts of essence can be extracted from one hundred parts of soul power. The essence will aggregate to form a rudimentary soul core. Immediately afterwards, the remaining unrefined soul power will expand, similar to a rebound. The terrifying recoil will shake every corner of the soul master's body, even their sea of ​​consciousness, creating intense soul power fluctuations. This step severely tests whether the soul master's physique and mental strength can withstand it.

If the expansion and backlash are withstood, the flow will follow, and the soul power within the soul master's body will automatically surge from all parts of the body.

At the same time, the nascent soul core will uncontrollably draw in the primordial energy of heaven and earth from the outside. The two powerful energies, one inside and one outside, will once again form a soul energy vortex, which will then undergo a process of collapse and refinement, repeating this cycle.

From the outside, Leng Yaozhu could almost directly see various elements of heaven and earth flowing into Nan Liujing's body, including mysterious spatial elements, powerful wind elements, gentle water elements, pure light elements, and so on. An endless stream of elements of heaven and earth came one after another.

Nan Liujing's body began to tremble continuously, and the space around him became distorted, as if an invisible hand was tearing and wrinkling it, but his body remained as steady as Mount Tai, only his clothes began to show signs of tearing.

Hiss.

In an instant, Nan Liujing's clothes were completely torn apart, and his body, which was both fierce and flexible, seemed to have been carefully sculpted by the Creator.

Leng Yaozhu's pupils suddenly trembled.

She instinctively covered her face with her hands, but through the gaps between her fingers covering her delicate face, her eyes peeked out, staring intently.

Having lived for over a hundred years, she was still a virgin. She had never seen anything like this before, and her throat inexplicably bobbed.

Really shameless.

Leng Yaozhu muttered a curse under her breath, coughed, and shifted her gaze.

But this transition is circular; it eventually circles back.

A few hours later.

Deep within his heart, more and more essences converged, gradually forming a golden oval-shaped light body. Its surface was surrounded by numerous fibrous veins, and extremely pure life force and soul power rippled within it. It could operate on its own without much need for Nan Liujing's spiritual power to maintain it.

"Mr. Jin!"

Having reached this point, Nan Liujing shouted without any hesitation.

hum~
Suddenly, green and golden light particles surged from all directions in the training room. Leng Yaozhu, who had just finished watching, quickly became alert, only to see a translucent, heart-shaped skeleton slowly materialize in front of Nan Liujing.

A powerful suction force erupted from Nan Liujing's heart, and the translucent heart energy skeleton instantly merged into his heart.

Unseen by Leng Yaozhu, the energy skeleton transformed into a thin membrane, encasing Nan Liujing's heart. The entire heart turned a brilliant gold, with a faint golden ancient tree pattern imprint appearing within, as if engraving a legacy within, filled with a mysterious charm.

The fusion of the energy soul bone and the heart creates a sense of sublimation. At the same time, the soul core is located deep within the heart. When energy circulates, it must pass through the heart before being transmitted to the soul core. With these two layers combined, Nan Liujing's life force has become so strong that even Leng Yaozhu takes notice.

"I have infused this energy soul bone with one-tenth of the energy source of the Golden Ancient Tree. From now on, you will be able to use your status as the Child of Nature to unleash natural domain skills. Of course, the strength of these skills will increase as your strength grows."

Jin Lao's voice rang out.

Actually, its original intention was to infuse 30% of the Golden Ancient Tree's energy, but it was worried that the Blue Silver Emperor would sense the problem, so it reduced the amount given.

"Thank you." Nan Liujing didn't care whether the other party gave him 30% or 10% of the energy; what mattered was that they had given it, and that was a token of their appreciation.

He added, "Mr. Jin, how should I transfer the Abyss Energy to you?"

Jin Laodao said, "The imprint of the Child of Nature carried by the energy soul bone can be used for transfer."

"Okay." Nan Liujing maintained the size of the seal's gap and introduced the abyss's essence into his heart. Waves of cold energy surged in, but faced with the burning blood of his heart, they immediately became incredibly warm.

On the other end, Jin Lao had just received the energy from the abyss and was overjoyed.

Although the source of the abyss plane on the first level is only a drop in the ocean for it, it is not the energy of Douluo Star itself. The joy of eating other people's food is indescribable.

It's like when you eat at someone else's house, you always feel that their food tastes better.

"teacher."

The transfer speed was indeed a bit slow, so Nan Liujing couldn't help but use his soul power to send a telepathic message to Leng Yaozhu.

"teacher?"

With no response, Nan Liujing called out again in confusion.

"You...you said."

Leng Yaozhu's voice sounded somewhat flustered.

"???" Nan Liujing was puzzled, but he didn't think much of it and said with his eyes still closed, "I need to go into seclusion for a while to stabilize my soul core. Don't worry, it will be stable during this time and there won't be any problems. You can go and do your own thing."

“No,” Leng Yaozhu refused. “Until you completely finish your cultivation, your teacher will not go anywhere else, but will stay with you.”

Nan Liujing felt a warmth in his heart. "Alright, thank you for your trouble. But you should still explain this to others, so that some people won't get anxious."

"I know."

Leng Yaozhu glanced at him subconsciously, then quickly looked away, her fair, jade-like face inexplicably flushed.
