Douluo: This Legend of the Dragon King is not quite right

Chapter 391 Yun Ming's Speculation: Lu Jun is at level 50 and possesses three 100,000-year-old soul bones!
Seeing the horrific injuries and feeling the lingering, destructive aura that even he found unsettling, Yun Ming's face turned incredibly grim, and his heart sank to the bottom.

When did Emperor Xu's strength become so terrifying?

This is a level that no ordinary Quasi-God Limit Douluo could reach.

Yun Ming looked around and found that the oppressive atmosphere inside the Sea God Pavilion was almost suffocating.

The golden tree's light was no longer as brilliant as before, but weak and strained, like a giant who was seriously injured and dying, barely able to maintain the most basic breath of life.

Yun Ming immediately knelt beside Ya Li, frantically pouring his pure soul power into his wife's body to help her resist the destructive energy that was like a bone-deep infection, while also assisting the remaining power of the Golden Ancient Tree in trying to repair her damaged meridians and internal organs.

His face was as pale as paper, not only because of his own injuries, but also because of the turmoil in his heart.

Xu Tiandi's power completely exceeded his expectations.

The next moment, a thought flashed through Yun Ming's mind like lightning, making him feel cold all over.

He recalled the legends about the Eastern Continent, and the mysterious and dangerous Dragon Valley.

It is said that the true power and legacy of the dragon race are buried there...

Xu Tiandi... Could it be that he entered Dragon Valley and gained unimaginable adventures and power from there?

"Dragon Valley...Dragon Valley of the Eastern Continent..."

The name of the place kept echoing in Yun Ming's mind, and his heart sank lower and lower.

That legendary place, where the ancient dragon race was said to be buried, has always been classified as top secret by the Federation and heavily sealed off.

As the Speaker of the Federal Council, Xu Tiandi absolutely has the ability and the reason to enter and explore.

"The Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon... is itself a top-tier martial spirit among the dragon race. If it truly obtained the inheritance or power of the ancient dragon race in Dragon Valley... then all of this makes sense!"

Yun Ming felt a sudden sense of clarity, but this was followed by a deeper sense of gravity and a feeling of powerlessness.

An opponent who was already a man of great talent and power has now gained unimaginable personal strength. This will be a disaster for Shrek Academy and for the entire continent.

This guy is outrageous; he's been hiding his true abilities so well.

He suppressed his turbulent emotions and focused all his efforts on treating Yali and the other injured elders.

Although the ancient golden tree has been severely damaged, its roots remain intact, and its remaining life energy is still the best healing elixir at present. However, this process is destined to be many times longer and more difficult than before.

……

Meanwhile, inside the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, in Lu Jun's dormitory.

The surging soul power fluctuations gradually subsided, and Lu Jun opened his eyes. A flash of icy blue light seemed to appear in his eyes, and the temperature in the entire room dropped a few degrees due to the chill he unconsciously emitted.

He felt the surging power within him, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn upwards.

It worked!
Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone, Ice Dragon's right arm bone, Titan Snow Demon's left leg bone!

Three soul bones, each ten thousand years old!

The immense energy not only greatly enhanced his physique but also deeply stimulated the potential of his ice-attribute martial soul, resulting in incredibly powerful soul skills.

However, his soul power level remained firmly at the threshold of level 50, unable to advance any further.

The reason is simple: the bottleneck of the soul.

He currently only has one Ice Dragon Soul Spirit, and it hasn't been upgraded to the 100,000-year level, so he can't provide a fifth Soul Ring. "Yay, you've finally reached level 50!"

Within the sea of ​​spirits, Hyotei's cheerful and lively voice rang out, filled with eagerness.

"Hurry up, stop dawdling, let me become your spirit now!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Jun couldn't help but smile, and quickly replied in his mind:
"Don't rush this. This can't be rushed."

"Why?" Hyotei's voice immediately became aggrieved and confused. "Didn't you promise me that? Did you go back on your word?"

Beside her, Xue Di's clear, cool voice, tinged with a hint of amusement, rang out:

"Bing'er, please calm down. Since Your Excellency has said this, you must have your reasons."

She seemed to understand Lu Jun's situation better.

"The Snow Empress understands me best." Lu Jun smiled and explained, "Ice Empress, think about it. You are one of the three Heavenly Kings of the Far North, a ferocious beast-level existence. If I were to suddenly acquire such an absurdly powerful soul, how would I explain it to the outside world?"

"The Spirit Pagoda, Shrek Academy, and even the Federation will immediately target me and demand to know your origins. At that point, all our secrets may be exposed, and it will be a huge loss."

"Then... what should we do?" Hyotei realized the problem, her tone becoming anxious and frustrated. "Are we just going to stay stuck like this?"

"Of course not." Lu Jun was confident and had already come up with a plan. "Didn't we already plan to go to the far north? This is the perfect opportunity."

He elaborated on his plan:

“I can apply to the higher-ups of the Spirit Pagoda and say that my martial spirit has recently had a special feeling, as if it has been summoned by some kind of being in the far north and needs to go there for a deep awakening, which may solve my problem of insufficient soul spirits.”

"This reason is reasonable. If a genius like me has a lucky encounter that leads to enlightenment, the higher-ups won't doubt it too much."

"When I arrive in the far north, I will encounter and subdue a spirit by chance. Then everything will be logical, legal, and compliant. No one will be able to say anything."

"As for the disguise, that's even simpler. With the power of the Ice Abyss Sword, it's incredibly easy to disguise you, a ferocious beast-level soul spirit, as an ordinary 100,000-year-old soul spirit. That way, no one will suspect us."

Hyotei listened and thought it made a lot of sense, but then another question immediately came to mind:
"But the far north is so dangerous, would the Spirit Pagoda really let you go alone? They'd definitely send a powerful expert to protect you, right? Wouldn't that still lead to you being discovered?"

“That’s the best part of the plan.” Lu Jun’s lips curled into a sly smile. “It’s a given that the higher-ups will send someone to protect us. As for who that person will be… I can appoint them myself.”

"Whom do you intend to designate?" Xue Di asked with great interest.

“Leng Yulai.” Lu Jun said the name without hesitation. “She is my teacher Leng Yaozhu’s younger sister. She is very strong and is level 98. She is more than capable of being a bodyguard. More importantly… she is already one of us. She already knows some of my secrets. With her by my side, I can ensure safety and keep things confidential to the greatest extent. She is simply the perfect candidate.”

"Hmm...that sounds quite reasonable..."

Hyotei muttered to himself, his tone suddenly turning sour and tinged with obvious resentment.

"Yeah, you really know how to charm women."

"You're surrounded by older or younger women, teachers or seniors... Tell me, just how many women are interested in you?"

Lu Jun was taken aback by Hyotei's sudden interrogation, then chuckled, deliberately adopting a carefree and unrestrained demeanor, and said loudly:

"I am but a humble person, merely passing through a sea of ​​flowers without a single petal clinging to me."

Hyotei: "…………"
