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

Chapter 401 Ah Yin: The Me Who Devoured the Past; The Era of Beast Taming for All
Have you made contact with Da Ming and Er Ming yet?

Poseidon Pavilion.

Among the ancient golden trees.

Tang Hao revealed his true form, looking gloomy and speaking in a rather irritable tone.

"According to the investigation, it seems that they have made contact..." Yun Ming lowered his head, trying hard to suppress his laughter, afraid that if he looked up again, he would see the slightly messy scratches on Tang Hao's face and Senior A Yin's red eyes, and he would burst out laughing.

There's no way around it, it's just too ridiculous.

Moral conscience and a sense of humor are locked in a fierce battle.

"Then why don't they come to us? I remember that before Xiao San left, he specifically told them that when they infiltrated the Silver Dragon King's side as spies, they must first make contact with the Golden Ancient Tree?" Tang Hao frowned slightly, looking somewhat dissatisfied.

"Senior, this is the letter they sent that I intercepted. I checked the soul guide surveillance footage, and it turns out they sent a soul beast to wander around Shrek Academy's gate not long ago, but it was mistaken for a soul beast by the guards and forcibly driven away. That's why I only found the letter in the messy mailbox. To contact them, we'll have to wait for their reply..."

"The letter didn't reveal their exact location," Yun Ming explained patiently.

Letters, such ancient things, have long been replaced by communication soul tools, which is why he only remembered that Shrek Academy had a long-forgotten mailbox, and only after opening it did he find it...

However, this also shows that the Ming Dynasty and the Second Ming Dynasty have indeed been out of touch with the world for too long.

They're still using such primitive methods to transmit information.

"Hmph, so cautious?" Tang Hao snorted coldly.

"Anyone who didn't know better would think we were enemies."

“Being so cautious is the right thing to do…” Ah Yin said calmly. “The situation is changing rapidly now, and that guy is still eyeing us covetously. If he discovers our grand plan, then the Ming Dynasty will be in danger.”

"There's one more thing," Yun Ming said thoughtfully.

“Zang Xin wrote a letter in a special way... He trusted Shrek Academy again. This time, he went to the headquarters of the Sun Moon Empire Federation with several hall masters to infiltrate and steal the level 12 fixed-position soul guide cannon and the Eternal Heaven Kingdom.”

"..."

Tang Hao nodded in acknowledgment and waved his hand.

Upon seeing this, Yun Ming vanished from the spot in a flash.

Seeing that Yun Ming was so sensible, A Yin's tone softened a bit: "A Hao, you are the only one in my eyes in this life. Even your brother Tang Xiao is now just a skeleton... What else could you possibly be dissatisfied with?"

"I'm taking this too seriously." Tang Hao took a deep breath and looked at the person opposite him with a slightly affectionate expression.

"Don't worry, A-Yin, I've never doubted you, not even for a second..."

……

"Vast Ocean Universe Cover".

Su Wen weighed the treasures left behind by Tang San, his smile growing even wider.

Of course, before leaving, he teased the fake couple a bit, which made things even more fun.

"Lord..."

In the sea of ​​consciousness, Ah Yin spoke with a resentful tone. Even though she had become Su Wen's pet beast and had regained her human form, she had lost most of her memories. Now she only felt intense hatred towards Tang Hao, but doing this was still too shameful.

That's right, the one who just cooperated with Su Wen was this Ah Yin, not that Ah Yin.

After all, in the timeline ten thousand years ago, Ah Yin had already completely mastered the Golden Ancient Wood and was only one step away from becoming a god. Simply manipulating the Golden Ancient Wood was not a difficult task for her.

What's even more coincidental is that both are Ah Yin, practically identical.

Even though the former's bloodline evolved and merged into the golden ancient tree, Ah Yin, the original body, didn't notice anything unusual and even began to doubt herself...

"Hehe..." Su Wen looked slightly embarrassed.

"Will the Lord incorporate this timeline into the main body in the future?" Ah Yin didn't press the matter further, but asked softly.

"meeting."

Su Wen nodded.

Ten thousand years ago, it had completely merged with the main body (Douluo Continent II) into a single timeline. Now, it has traveled to ten thousand years later, separated by the God of Time and Space. All it has done is not just to capture rare soul beasts, but also... to prepare for merging into the main body (Douluo Continent II era).

This is equivalent to severing the channel between the future and the main body. Only after everything is ready will the "floodgates be opened" to completely connect the three.

“I want to devour the Golden Ancient Tree,” Ah Yin said earnestly.

"Devour?" Su Wen was taken aback.

"Yes, when you merge this timeline with the main body, I, being a Golden Ancient Wood, will not be affected. Or rather, when the two timelines merge, the main body of me will become stronger..."

"You're so ruthless to yourself?" Su Wen asked with a slight surprise.

"I just want to swallow my past..." Ah Yin whispered, "Now, looking at her, every single second feels like a disgrace, constantly flashing before my eyes, reminding me that I can never forget her..."

"can."

Su Wen pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly.

"But Tang Hao is here now... let's wait a bit longer."

Wait a little longer, the little flying egg will be here.

Then Shrek City fell silent.

At that time, although the Golden Ancient Tree will feign death and be unable to resist, it will still consume a lot of energy. After being weakened, it will be the best opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

but……

He also needed to think about how to protect the Spirit Transmission Academy next to Shrek Academy...

Forget it.

Let's go find the ancient east wind.

He is not a god after all. Although he can protect the entire academy from harm, it would take too much effort. It would be better to have Qian Gu Dong Feng move the academy out of the danger zone.

He understood the latter's thoughts, which were also a way of avoiding suspicion.

Using missiles to bombard one's own people is something the world will always despise, but if I were also attacked, and the culprit was a member of the Holy Spirit Cult, then perhaps the suspicion against me could be cleared somewhat...

Su Wen didn't care whether or not Shrek was blown up.

But the disciples and students of the newly established Spirit Transmission Academy should not be casualties of this purge, and even if they are affected, they should not be...

……

Federal Spiritual Transmission Academy.

Headquarters.

On the rooftop of the highest floor of the former headquarters of the Spirit Pagoda, Qian Gu Dongfeng stood before the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the newly built academy below, lost in thought.

Transformation is not an easy process.

Having abandoned its former advantages, the enormous profits and strategic significance brought by the spirits, the Spirit Pagoda is now in a rather awkward position. If it weren't for the rich resources accumulated over thousands of years, it would probably be unable to even pay the salaries of its massive number of members.

No wonder the powerful sects of the past all went into seclusion.

The sect that claims to be the number one sect lives in abject poverty. It simply cannot afford to support its disciples without resorting to lucrative businesses such as robbery or weapons trading.

"It's difficult."

What's so difficult about it?

"..."

Qian Gu Dongfeng was about to speak subconsciously when his pupils suddenly contracted. He looked behind him and saw a snow-white figure sitting leisurely on the sofa, pouring tea in her hand. She looked at him with a smile, her eyes seemingly asking the question from before.

when! !

"call……"

Qian Gu Dongfeng took a deep breath. Although he didn't know why this person had come, he still spoke sincerely.

“The maintenance costs of the Spirit Pagoda have been quite high over the years, and the number of people and followers is huge, totaling a million. If we just live off our past savings, we will probably squander them all very soon. And the academy now… can’t even fill one-tenth of the hole with profits.”

"Although the Spirit Pagoda 'imprisons' soul beasts, it at least places them in a secret realm, much like the Star Dou Great Forest. And now that the Spirit Pagoda is gone, humans will probably have no choice but to capture soul beasts from the Star Dou Great Forest..."

Use the most tactful approach possible to avoid distorting his tone.

"..."

Seeing the silence on the other end, Qian Gu Dongfeng's expression tightened. Had he offended this person? He should have been more patient...

But the next moment.

"you're right."

Su Wen nodded slightly, his expression calm as still water.

"Without spirit rings, humans will inevitably invade the Star Dou Great Forest again sooner or later. The so-called peace between humans and spirit beasts is nothing but an illusion, and it will inevitably crumble..."

“You…” Qian Gu Dong Feng’s expression brightened with joy.

"I came here for this very reason." Su Wen nodded and smiled. "I control several small worlds, which contain dozens of times more soul beasts than the Star Dou Great Forest in terms of both number and strength. I can offer them to humans for contracts, but there is one condition."

"..."

The ancient east wind made his mind buzz, several small worlds...

It is not yet a barren, desolate plane.

He was already overwhelmed by the shock and stood there dumbfounded. The news was so enormous that he couldn't process it for a while.

"I have no reason or right to refuse, no matter what the conditions are. Just tell me," Qian Gu Dongfeng said with difficulty.

"We need to change the way Soul Masters form contracts with humans... to Beast Taming."

Su Wen smiled.

He opened his palm, and a white Poké Ball floated up and down.

In other words, in the future, the most important factor for forming a contract is the level of affection. Only after reaching a certain level of affection will the spirit choose to form a contract with it.

This is similar to the way Long Haochen made a contract in another world.

Su Wen, possessing these Poké Ball mini-worlds, would also benefit from the amplification of his main energy, making him a sure-fire winner.

"..."

"You trust me that much?"

After listening to Su Wen's explanation, Qian Gu Dong Feng took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed his excitement.

"Leave professional matters to professionals."

Su Wen smiled.

"I can give you access to the channel, and I don't need any fees or anything. There's only one condition: you must strictly adhere to my rules..."

"I only trust you once."

……

"Water, fire, thunder, wind, ice, darkness, life..."

"Seven independent small world passages with different attributes!!"

Qian Gu Dongfeng stared at the "key" in his hand, his throat bobbing and his eyes burning. He understood all too well that this was not just a key to these small worlds, but a key to unlocking the future supreme glory of the Spirit Pagoda.

"Drip~"

Press the communicator of your immediate family member.

"I've got a job! Take all your repairmen and I need to build a teleportation device between different realms than the Ascension Platform! Hurry! You have three minutes to get to my office!"

……

"The official website of the Spirit Pagoda has released an announcement."

Still worried about how to acquire spirits? Still frustrated by not being able to advance your Pokémon? Come to the Spirit Tower! Spirits are a thing of the past, what we're about to introduce is the latest... Poké Ball!!

"To become the strongest beast tamer, just like him..."

Yuan Enhui stared at a photo on the homepage, enlarging it with two fingers, his pupils gradually becoming glazed.

Countless powerful-looking pets surrounded him, and various elemental spirit beasts fought against the overwhelming abyssal creatures that swept in. The sky on both sides was split apart, creating a scene of intense excitement.

This is the very photo that Enci secretly took back then.

It was essentially a live broadcast.

I didn't want to share it in a group, but it was shamelessly stolen by Qian Gu Dong Feng without paying any copyright fees.

"This isn't..." The girl's lips twitched suddenly. It was him! It was the boss!

The person who recently caused such a stir on the federal network is actually... my own boss?!

Actually, she didn't feel too much shock at the moment. Instead, she felt the joy of gradually completing a puzzle, having the mystery unveiled, and winning a super prize.

After all, judging from his previous performance, it was already possible to guess how extraordinary Su Wen's identity was.

Riding the Emperor Heaven, with the Dragon God by his side...

Good heavens, beast taming, can it really reach new heights?

"The photos are great, it's a pity I wasn't there at the time..." Gu Yue leaned over, licking her popsicle, and said indifferently.

"Daddy is so handsome!" Na'er continued to blindly praise him.

And it wasn't just them; the entire new class was chattering about beast tamers.

This is definitely the hottest side hustle in the next few years, bar none.

Even former mecha pilots would be trampled underfoot.

Can beast taming completely replace the soul?

“It should be possible…”

“My dad is from the Spirit Pagoda, a former high-level Spirit Pagoda Master…” A chubby boy stepped forward and proudly proclaimed in the crowd: “The beast taming that appeared this time is to eliminate soul spirits. It is said that there are extremely powerful people fighting behind it. Anyway, you wouldn’t understand even if I told you.”

"But the information updated on the official website now is basically true, and there's still a lot that hasn't been revealed..."

"The future focus will definitely be on improving the strength of Soul Masters, with a particular emphasis on pets, including the level of synergy between them. This is because, to some extent, pets can not only share cultivation with humans but also give back some of their own attributes to them. In the future, we might see scenes like this on the field, with two humans providing support from behind while only two pets are engaged in fierce combat in the middle..."

"His analysis is spot on, exactly the same as what that guy said," Gu Yue said calmly, sipping her popsicle as she sat in her chair.

"I wonder when it will become widespread..." Yuan Enhui felt a sense of exhilaration.

"Da da da~"

There was a sound of footsteps.

The door was pushed open.

A middle-aged woman with glasses and a gentle face walked onto the podium: "I'm sure you students have all heard about the latest news about the Spirit Pagoda."

"That's right. Because we are a directly affiliated academy, we enjoy priority treatment... The Spirit Pagoda has undergone dozens of internal tests and has been confirmed to be safe, so today we can take everyone into the Pokémon world to capture Pokémon..."

"Oooo!!!"

The cheers nearly lifted the roof off.

This is truly exciting.

After all, with Su Wen as an example, the whole world has already witnessed the formidable power of Beast Tamers...

Mu Ling smiled, pressed her palm down, and her voice gradually subsided.

"You can come to me later to pick up your Poké Balls. Students at the Soul Master level or above can receive a Millennium Purple Poké Ball, while Great Soul Masters can only receive a Yellow one."

"This afternoon, the academy will organize everyone to go to the Spirit Pagoda headquarters. Please line up in an orderly manner..."

"..."
