Douluo Continent: I can nurture soul beasts and even perform super evolution.

Chapter 154 The Method to Cure Mu En, Jing Hongchen's Interest
"How can we save them!" Old Song slammed his hand on the table and stood up, his face filled with impatience. "Xiao Wen, stop keeping me in suspense!"

All the elders looked at Su Wen with anxious expressions. Clearly, Su Wen's words were no longer just surprising, but had put these old guys on a rollercoaster of emotions.

It goes without saying how important Mu En is to the academy. For decades, the entire Sea God Pavilion has tried its best to provide Mu En with all kinds of treasures in order to cure this true pillar of Shrek Academy. However, no matter how many methods they used, they were helpless. In addition, Mu En was unwilling to continue to waste the academy's resources, so everyone could only silently wait for that day.

When Elder Mu was seriously injured, he shouldn't have ended up like this. However, his mistake of consuming the Dragon Pill and ignoring its inherent violence allowed this malevolent energy to take root in his spine, constantly damaging his life force.

The body of a Limit Douluo is already intricate and complex, not to mention that Elder Mu had managed to completely erase the malevolent energy within the Dragon Core and nurture it to the point where even a mid-stage Huo Gua could easily consume it. This shows just how ruthless this old man was.

The fact that he could achieve this was not because the Limit Douluo was too weak. On the contrary, even if it were Xuanzi at his peak, he would have had difficulty resisting the violent aura of a True Dragon Core.

This demonstrates that a Limit Douluo truly deserves to be called the only existence on the continent who can be considered a key figure influencing the course of battle.

Therefore, if Moon can recover from his injuries, the impact on Shrek's morale will be far more than just a little bit...

“Elder Song, there’s no need to rush.” Su Wen said calmly. “This matter concerns Elder Mu’s life. I need to have a thorough talk with Elder Mu and examine his injuries before I can draw a conclusion.”

"Ha ha ha ha."

Mu En smiled and said, "Okay, okay. After the Sea God Pavilion meeting ends, I will talk to Xiao Wen about his injuries. You don't need to worry about it. We will let you know later."

"Hiss..." Old Song's face darkened, but he still sat down helplessly.

"Never mind, if we can cure Elder Mu, even if it only extends his life by one or two years, that would be good."

Although curing Elder Mu is absurd.

If anyone else had brought this up, everyone would have thought it was just nonsense, but it was this little guy, Su Wen, who spoke up...

In fact, before heading to this competition.

In everyone's mind, Su Wen was highly regarded as steady and a leader, very much like Elder Mu. After all, he was able to fight his way out of the encirclement of three peak Soul Douluo experts, and even when the Holy Spirit Cult experts in the Star Dou Great Forest came out in full force and the Crimson King was in deep danger, he was still able to protect the auspicious beast all the way out. Everyone present was full of admiration for his amazing achievements.

And after returning from the competition.

At that point, everyone's affection for Su Wen reached its peak.

A handsome young man with unparalleled strength and a calm and composed demeanor, he is indeed worthy of being chosen as the successor of the Sea God Pavilion.

So no matter how shocking Su Wen's words were, the crowd inexplicably felt a sense of trust, as if anything he said was 100% reliable.

"Alright, now that these kids are in, let's talk about the rewards. They won the championship despite bearing so much pressure, Shrek Academy certainly can't let them down," Moon said, waving his hand.

At this moment, Bei Bei and the others filed in, led by Yan Shaozhe.

Wang Yan was rewarded with a promotion to Special Grade Teacher, Inner Court Teaching Assistant, and the right to freely access the Sea God Pavilion's collection of books for one year.

Ma Xiaotao's merits and demerits cancel each other out with Ling Luochen's.

The reserve team consists of seven people. In addition to the three soul bones awarded as a prize in the competition, three more will be added, one suitable for each person.

As for Su Wen, he waved his hand dismissively.

If he really wanted the soul bone, Yan Shaozhe would have delivered it personally the next day; that would have been too much trouble.

"Wang Dong'er, Gu Yuena, Su Wen."

"The meeting is dismissed!"

After Moon called the roll, only three people remained.

All the elders departed, their eyes filled with satisfaction and expectation for Su Wen.

Xian Lin'er couldn't resist and ran over to pinch Su Wen's cheek again before reluctantly leaving.

Yan Shaozhe sighed in admiration upon seeing this.

“Wang Dong’er, go through the first door, to the third room at the end, go in, and sit on the futon to cultivate.”

"Silver Dragon King, enter the third door, the first room at the end of the corridor. Now that you have just taken human form, the golden ancient wood will still be of many benefits to you in your human form."

The two girls glanced at Su Wen and then left.

Su Wen then skillfully pushed Mu En through the second door.

Then came a spacious, luxurious corridor.

The first room at the end.

It is also the room with the most abundant spiritual energy of heaven and earth among all the ancient golden trees.

Su Wen pushed Elder Mu into the house, opened the wooden window, and pushed Mu En to the window. The old man and the young man looked down and had a clear view of the entire Seagod Island. They could even see Bei Bei and the others leaving the island by boat under Yan Shaozhe's leadership.

"Elder Mu, if you can recover fully and live a peaceful life, but are forced to stay at Shrek Academy forever, with your activities limited to Shrek Academy and Shrek City, unable to travel far... can you accept this outcome?"

After pondering for a long time, Su Wen spoke first.

"Oh?"

"I said with great interest."

"I've talked about the good things, what about the bad things?"

Su Wen: "..."

"Hahahaha, spending my whole life guarding Shrek Academy, which I've always cherished, and quietly watching you all grow up, that's a good thing, how can it be considered a price to pay?" Mu En laughed heartily, then looked at Su Wen with a smile.

"As for the vast and beautiful landscape of the entire continent, my two friends and I traveled all over it when we were young. As people get older, they start to miss their homeland, unlike you young people who like to travel and enjoy the scenery. Even after I die, I will protect the academy in another way."

"..."

Su Wen remained silent for a long time before nodding slightly.

A soft call.

"Yilao."

Then, to Mu En's astonishment, a gray mist emerged, forming the figure of an old man in a gray robe inside the golden wooden house. The moment he appeared, the entire golden wooden house erupted in chaos, and even Su Wen could feel the unease and hostility emanating from him.

"Cough cough."

With a wave of his hand, Moon unleashed a pure white light that suppressed the Golden Tree's unease.

He then looked up at Electrolux, nodded slightly, and said humbly, "So, you are the method Xiao Wen was talking about?"

"good."

Electrolux looked around. "The Star Dou Great Forest has the Lake of Life, and Shrek Academy also has the Golden Tree. Your chances of recovering from your injuries are much higher."

"Let me introduce myself, I am Electrolux, from another world. My divine consciousness fragments were attracted by this child Su Wen, and have been lingering in his spiritual sea ever since. It wasn't until he went to the competition and took a carving knife, which was actually filled with the gold of life, that I was able to recover more of my divine consciousness origin."

"Divine consciousness..."

A look of shock flashed across Moon's face.

What can be called divine consciousness must be a deity. No wonder it made the Golden Tree uneasy; it turns out to be an ancient god.

But if they are gods, why have they fallen to such a state? Could it be that the divine realm...

"No, you misunderstand. I come from another world, or more accurately, another galaxy. The universe is vast and immense. What you collectively call the God Realm is merely the master of this star field, not the entire universe."

Seeing that Moon had misunderstood him, Electrox shook his head and explained.

"Alright, let me check on your condition first."

Electrolux stepped forward, opened his palm, and gray mist surged into Moon's body.

Half an hour later.

Under Su Wen's tense gaze, Electrolux slowly said, "It's alright, not as bad as I thought."

He then held up two fingers.

"First, deal with the malevolent energy. This malevolent energy originates from a true dragon and cannot be dealt with by ordinary people. Moreover, one must carefully avoid its heart meridian, but by chance, I can deal with it."

"Second, solve the problem of continuous loss of life force after infusion. His current body is like a sieve full of holes. No matter how much life force is poured in, it cannot be retained and will slowly flow away over time. This is also easy to solve. We can use the life-gold to stitch it up and the golden tree to lock in the energy through circulation."

"That's why he asked the question earlier. Once you use the Golden Tree, it means you'll have to live within a hundred-kilometer radius of its range. It's not that you can't leave, but if you do, your life force will drastically decrease, even faster than it is now, and it will be irreversible..."

"..."

The atmosphere in the room was quiet.

Moon's fingers trembled slightly.

Although he always took life and death lightly and wouldn't allow any more resources to be wasted on him, how could he not be excited if he really had a chance to extend his life?

"Thank you, thank you..."

Moon's eyes gradually welled up with tears.

In his view, Su Wen's method might still be immature, because it was something that countless people at Shrek Academy had tried every possible way to accomplish but failed. No matter how capable Su Wen was, it would be difficult for him to do it.

So we came here simply because we didn't want to dampen the children's enthusiasm.

But who would have thought that Su Wen would actually come up with a proposal that even he found appealing?

The presence of a divine consciousness greatly improved the feasibility of this plan.

"Actually, you can leave the academy too." "Long Dan."

Su Wen pondered for a moment.

Even after purification, the Dragon Pill is still a top-tier treasure. Moreover, nurtured by Mu En himself, it has gradually become integrated with Mu En's body and will not cause any rejection. It is the natural origin of the Dragon Pill.

The purpose of using the Golden Tree is to repair wounds and lock in energy, and the Dragon Pill can do the same thing—provided, of course, that it has been "upgraded" by Electrolux.

Once the Dragon Core transforms into a heart, there is hope that it will evolve into the "Radiant Dragon Heart".

Electrolux has experience in this area—he once resurrected Long Haochen with the Heart of Eternity, and there are precedents for this more complex life reshaping. Now that he has recovered some of his divine consciousness, he is naturally more adept at it.

All I can say is that Electrolux is just too versatile.

“This dragon pill is something I made for you…” Mu En shook his head, about to refuse.

But Su Wen interrupted him: "I don't need it."

Moon remained silent.

“With my current physique, I can condense my first soul core at the Soul Saint realm. Dragon pills are useful, but not many… If they can help you advance your strength to the next level, then it will definitely be a win,” Su Wen said in a deep voice.

The Dragon Pill was meant to be held by Mu En so that it could unleash its full potential.

In the original story, Long Dan was useful to Huo Gua, but only to a limited extent.

"it is good!"

After hesitating for a long time, Moon finally made up his mind and nodded heavily.

“In that case, let’s begin,” Electrox said with a leisurely smile, his hands behind his back.

He was Teacher Su Wen, and this scene truly made him feel gratified.

"The first step is to eliminate the resentment attached to your bones and blood..."

As he spoke, a gray staff appeared in his hand.

Gray mist enveloped the entire room, making it seem as if one had entered another space. But within the dark, gray mist, a dense beam of light shot into the sky.

Electrolux stands proudly, embodying both light and darkness.

As pure white light surged from Moon's body, a giant white dragon with crimson eyes and a body shrouded in blood-red mist rose up from behind him, roaring at Electrox.

This is the violent side of the White Dragon.

Under Moon's worried expression.

Electrolux smiled faintly and waved his staff.

An aura of pure light burst forth from it, enveloping the white dragon. Then came a shrill scream. With the help of the Golden Tree and the Gold of Life, in a battle of divine sense against divine sense, Electrox naturally won a complete victory.

"Such a pure aura of light..." Moon stared in astonishment.

He himself was the Holy Dragon of Light, so he was naturally very familiar with this aura. He even thought that someone who could reach the level of Elex was a god of light in person... Ah, it really does seem to be a deity...

……

Empire of the Sun and Moon.

Inside Mingde Hall in Mingdu.

The tall and magnificent metal buildings form the foundation of this highest academy (research institute) for soul tools in the Sun Moon Empire.

Deep inside Mingde Hall, in a spacious hall.

A short, stout middle-aged man sat in the main seat. He took a sip of tea, his small eyes narrowed as he stared at the white-haired old man sitting quietly below.

"Old Jiang, the Empire has treated you well, hasn't it?"

"..."

The white-haired old man toyed with his teacup, his face serene.

"Elder Jiang, treason is a crime that a mere ninth-level Soul Master like you cannot bear. If His Majesty were to truly question you, I fear your entire Jiang family would not be enough to warrant execution." Upon seeing this, Jing Hongchen snorted coldly, his tone carrying a subtle threat.

The other party is, after all, a level nine Soul Master.

He was the head of Mingde Hall, but he wasn't qualified to take him down.

To put it bluntly, unless his teacher, the Pillar of the Sun and Moon Empire, personally appears to judge him, he can only be convicted. He would only dare to call him over to intimidate him.

As expected, the white-haired old man spoke slowly: "Master Jing, I don't know what you're talking about. Such a serious charge as treason can't be thrown around like that. Besides, this crime isn't for you to judge, otherwise, where would His Majesty be placed? Or is it that... you, Master Jing, have absolute power in the empire?"

"Jiang An! Stop spouting nonsense! You know I'm not that kind of person!" Jing Hongchen frowned.

"You tore it first!"

The white-haired old man snorted coldly and got up to leave.

But Jing Hongchen called out to him.

"What, does Hall Master Jing intend to forcibly keep this old man here?" Jiang An turned around and raised an eyebrow.

"Of course I wouldn't dare."

Jing Hongchen squinted.

“But I intercepted information from the Star Luo Empire’s spies that a ninth-level Soul Master from the Sun Moon Empire sold the Conferred God Platform containing a 100,000-year-old Soul Beast embryo to the Star Luo Auction House. This matches the information leaked by the Star Luo royal family earlier. Moreover, I secretly collected metal materials from Elder Jiang’s laboratory a few days ago, and the missing materials perfectly match a Conferred God Platform…”

The white-haired old man's face twitched, and he gave Glasses Hongchen a cold glance. "If you had this evidence, why didn't you say so earlier?"
If the evidence is conclusive, even if you have someone to vouch for you, you'll still suffer...

"I only want to ask you one thing: Is this Conferred God Platform left inside the Star Luo Empire's royal family? Was it a scheme set up by Xu Jiawei to fool us, or... was it snatched away by someone else along the way?" Jing Hongchen stared intently at the white-haired old man, trying to glean something from his eyes.

"I don't believe you didn't install some kind of tracking soul tool on the Conferred God Platform back then."

"Heh, is that all?" Jiang An raised an eyebrow.

"That's it! Tell me the truth, and I'll make that intelligence intercepted from the military intelligence department disappear! I'll cover up all traces for you, and this matter will be over!" Jing Hongchen said solemnly.

"..."

Jiang hesitated for a long time before slowly uttering a few words.

"Shrek."

"Shrek Academy?!" Jing Hongchen's pupils suddenly contracted upon receiving the answer.

“I also participated in the auction that day, just out of curiosity about how much the embryo would fetch. But it didn’t appear at the auction, so I curiously investigated its location. It was in a suite at Shrek Academy on the top floor of the Star Luo Empire Hotel, but I quickly lost track of it. The signal was completely cut off. At that time, there was an extremely strong Shrek member guarding it. I was worried about being discovered, so I didn’t go any closer.”

Jiang pondered for a moment.

"call……"

Jing Hongchen let out a long breath of stale air.

It was Shrek!

This aligns with his assumptions.

"Let this matter rest." He waved his hand and headed deeper into the hall.

Jiang raised an eyebrow. Anyway, he had made enough money, so let others worry about the rest.

Deep within Mingde Hall.

A spacious, dark room.

Jing Hongchen stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes slightly narrowed.

A figure stood silently to his side. "Master, are we really going to raid Shrek Academy? There are countless powerful figures there, and His Majesty won't give the other three kingdoms a pretext for war for the time being, so he won't send many more experts. With our own manpower, I'm afraid..."

"Hmph, who said we were going to make the first move?" Jing Hongchen sneered.

"Spread the message, especially to the Body Sect and the Holy Spirit Cult, make sure they are notified."

"These two parties are more interested in this than I am."

"Send the message to the Body Sect first!" After hesitating for a moment, Jing Hongchen narrowed his eyes and said.

"If both sides get involved, we're afraid we won't get the better of those monsters from the Holy Spirit Cult. We might as well let the Body Sect test the waters first, and then we can sneak in during the chaos to see if we can find this treasure."

"The Master is wise!"

The subordinate quickly bowed and said.

"Hmph, I heard that this year's Shrek Academy has produced an interesting young man who has my granddaughter completely captivated?" Jing Hongchen sneered.

"Su Wen's strength... is indeed unparalleled, and more importantly, his talent. This year, he is participating as a reserve team member, and he is even younger than Young Master Xiao."

“…Interesting.” Jing Hongchen chuckled softly.

"I hope we can meet again next time."

P.S.: There will be a long chapter at 12:30.
