Douluo Continent: The creation of Jixia Academy made Bibi Dong drool with envy.

Chapter 118 Zhu Zhuqing enrolls in school, embracing necromancy.
Electrolux's remnant soul was now coalescing into a slightly illusory yet still radiating an aura of profound knowledge and majesty, hovering above the high platform of the secret hall.

His eyes, which had once seen through life and death and manipulated souls, now calmly swept over the young faces below, which were filled with a mixture of tension, curiosity, and even fear.

"Magic, or rather... what your world calls 'alien energy manipulation,' is essentially the understanding and application of the fundamental power of the universe."

Electrolux's voice, hoarse and magnetic, with a unique rhythm, slowly echoed within the secret sanctuary.

"The soul power you are familiar with is merely a superficial manifestation of power under the rules of this world."

True magic, however, traces back to the chaos before the birth of soul power, harnessing those more primal and powerful forces at the levels of elements, spirit, and even the soul.

Unlike other instructors, he did not begin by explaining complex theories or tedious cultivation methods.

Instead, he extended that illusory right hand and gently grasped it.

"Om..."

The free-floating dark elements and the aura of death in the air seemed to be summoned, instantly converging in his palm.

In the blink of an eye, a lifelike flower, radiating a faint black light...the Flower of the Underworld, quietly bloomed in his palm.

The flowers, though beautiful, carried a soul-stirring sense of death and decay.

"This is…?"

The students below the stage stared wide-eyed, sensing the strange energy fluctuations emanating from the Netherworld Flower, which were completely different from soul power.

"This is one of the superficial manifestations of necromancy, the Flower of Spirit Gathering."

Electrolux said calmly.

"It can absorb fragments of free souls, nourish the caster's spiritual sea, and even... at crucial moments, detonate them, causing severe mental damage to the enemy."

As he spoke, he snapped his fingers.

The flower of the underworld transformed into a beam of black light and silently shot towards a fine iron puppet used to test energy intensity in a corner of the secret hall.

"boom!"

There was a muffled sound.

The incredibly hard iron golem's runes flashed intensely the instant it was struck by the Netherworld Flower.

Then... as if it had lost all its energy support, it collapsed and turned into a pile of scrap metal.

The entire process was devoid of violent explosions or dazzling brilliance; it was only a kind of... subtle and silent, eerie decay.

"hiss-"

A collective gasp rippled through the audience.

That's terrifying magic.

This is even more unpredictable and difficult to defend against than the powerful soul skills of those offensive soul masters.

Electrolux looked at the students' shocked yet eager eyes, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He knew that a seed called "magic" had been quietly planted in the hearts of these young people.

"Necromancy is not what people understand it to be, merely an evil art of manipulating corpses and playing with souls."

Electrolux's voice carried a hint of vicissitude and emotion.

"It is also a path to explore the mysteries of life and death and to pursue the immortality of the soul."

"Of course, this path is full of thorns and temptations. If one's will is not firm, it is very easy to fall into an abyss of no return."

"Do you... have the courage to follow me on this forbidden path of quest?"

Electrolux's gaze, like two deep vortexes, swept over every student below.

For a moment, the secret hall was completely silent. Many students showed hesitation and fear in their eyes.

after all.

In this world, the words "necromancy" often represent evil and misfortune.

However, after a moment.

A clear and firm voice broke the silence.

"Disciple Zhu Zhuqing is willing to follow Master to explore the mysteries of the soul."

It was Zhu Zhuqing, who had just been reborn in the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire and was now the "Hidden" Organization's Number Seven, who had returned to school.

In her deep, cat-like eyes, there flickered a yearning for unknown power and... a hint of fanaticism that seemed out of place with her temperament.

She could sense that the power wielded by this mentor, Electrolux, seemed to resonate in some strange way with her own Netherworld Cat Martial Soul.

Following Zhu Zhuqing's statement, several other students with firm resolve, or those who had long felt stuck in traditional Soul Master cultivation, also stepped forward, expressing their willingness to learn this forbidden magic.

Electrolux looked at the young people whose eyes gleamed with curiosity and courage, and a satisfied smile finally appeared on his illusory face.

Very good, his magical legacy has finally... found a successor.

……

New King's Continent, Jixia Academy Main Hall.

Yan Boshan was quite satisfied with the smooth start of the magic department and the performance of the "newly appointed instructor" Electrolux.

Necromancy, the mysteries of the soul… these knowledge systems from another world will surely bring new vitality and a more powerful foundation to Jixia Academy and the King's Continent.

He sat upright in the quiet room, silently sensing the ever-growing fortune within the core of the Ark, which was due to Ming Shiyin's successful arrangements in the Holy Grace Kingdom and Huo Yuhao's outstanding performance in the Mechanical Soul Guidance System.

Everything was developing in an orderly manner in the direction he had envisioned.

however.

at this time.

Yan Boshan's usually calm and collected eyes suddenly snapped open, a sharp glint flashing across them.

His vast divine sense, capable of covering the entire continent of kings and even penetrating dimensional barriers to perceive the movements of distant divine realms, keenly detected a... unusual fluctuation.

It was a faint yet distinctly sacred and judgmental energy fluctuation.

Like an invisible sword, it silently pierced the spatial barrier between the King's Continent and the New Douluo Continent, and is descending at an extremely fast speed towards the Holy Grace Kingdom and... the Jixia Academy!

"Hehe... Has God King Tang San's 'little gift' finally... been delivered?"

Yan Boshan's lips curled into a cold smile, his eyes flashing with a chilling light.

"I'd like to see what kind of surprise you, the God-King who commands slaughter, will send."

He did not intervene immediately.

Instead, with a thought, an invisible command transcended time and space, reaching the minds of Mozi and Master Luban, who were stationed at the Jixia Academy in the Holy Grace Kingdom.

"A guest is about to arrive, so please... treat him well."

Inside the secret hall of the Demonic Path department at Jixia Academy.

Electrolux's remnant soul is explaining the mysteries and risks of the soul contract to several newly recruited magic apprentices through a unique form of mental projection.

His husky yet magnetic voice seemed to possess a certain magic, gradually leading these young people, who were filled with a yearning for unknown power, into a completely new realm filled with taboos and temptations.
