Douluo Dragon King: I, the wielder of the Holy Sword, will vanquish all evil.

Chapter 92 Wu Changkong Breaks Through to Soul Saint

Su Qiu felt it was a pity that Wu Changkong was born.

In the original world, after Wu Changkong resolved his inner conflicts and found peace, he reached the level of Limit Douluo in just a few years.

That's real cheating!
Wu Changkong remained silent for a long time, until the laughter in the private room gradually subsided, before he slowly spoke, his voice slightly hoarse: "Some things can't be let go of just like that."

"I know it's difficult," Su Qiu said softly, "but are you willing to accept that? Willing to remain at the peak of Soul Emperor for the rest of your life, watching your juniors surpass you one by one?"

He didn't try to help the other person resolve their inner conflict or advise them to let go of anything.

That was the white moonlight of someone you loved; no one can truly let go of that.

Moreover, whether to let go of this matter or not is not a matter of right or wrong.

Since Wu Changkong can't let go, then he might as well not let go.

Su Qiu decided to use the "pie in the sky" tactic, asking, "Do you want to see her one more time?"

Wu Changkong's body trembled slightly. He looked up at Su Qiu, his pupils dilating in shock: "What do you mean?"

“You will still have a chance to see her again,” Su Qiu said, “as long as you keep getting stronger, very, very strong.”

"So powerful that you can travel through time and meet her from the past."

Su Qiu hadn't finished reading all the Douluo Continent series, so he didn't know if there was any realm that could resurrect people from the past.

But just taking a look should be enough, right?

Wu Changkong's bottleneck was that he had no goal. The death of his lover made him feel that life had lost its meaning, so what was the point of cultivation?
Su Qiu then gave him a goal: to become stronger, strong enough to travel through time and meet people from the past.

Although it sounds far-fetched, it's very useful in a fantasy world.

Su Qiu has lost count of how many protagonists cultivated continuously because of their lovers, eventually becoming so powerful that they were invincible.

"Time travel." Wu Changkong's voice trembled violently, like a drowning person grasping at a straw. "Really... is it possible?"

After his lover died, he became self-destructive. His master, his junior sister, his family, and his friends all advised him to let go.

But how can I let go?

Wu Changkong is really confused.

Su Qiu was the first person who not only didn't advise him to let go, but instead supported him in remembering it and working hard for it.

Who can understand the sense of redemption in this?

"In this world, nothing is absolutely impossible." Su Qiu's tone was calm, yet carried a convincing power as he began to offer his motivational message.

To be honest, Su Qiu didn't know either.

But all Wu Changkong needs now is a thought.

He needs someone to tell him: Yes, that's right, as long as you keep getting stronger, you'll see her again.

"The path of a Soul Master is inherently defying the heavens. From Soul Warrior to Douluo, from Douluo to Limit, every step is breaking the rules. What does time matter? As long as you are strong enough, one day you will be able to stand above the rules and see her again."

Wu Changkong clenched his fists tightly, the deathly stillness in his eyes replaced by raging flames.

He knew that what Su Qiu said was too far-fetched and too unrealistic, but he chose to believe it.

Because he needs this hope.

After years of cultivation that felt like being a walking corpse, it has finally taken on a new meaning.

It's not about becoming stronger for the sake of becoming stronger, but about being able to see that long-gone figure one more time.

He took a deep breath, suppressing his surging emotions, and his voice became steady again, but with an unprecedented firmness: "I understand."

These four simple words seemed to remove the heavy shackles from his body, and even the fluctuations of his soul power became much smoother.

He stood up, glanced at his students, and said, "You guys eat first. I'm going out for a bit and will be back in a bit."

He disappeared the next second.

He's about to break through to the Soul Saint level.

As soon as Wu Changkong's figure disappeared, the residual soul power fluctuations in the air were still trembling slightly. That was the soul power that he could no longer suppress as he was about to break through to the Soul Saint realm.

The entire private room erupted in chaos.

Xie Xie slammed his hand on the table, his eyes wide, and exclaimed, "What the hell! What is Teacher Wu Changkong doing? He was fine just now, why did he suddenly run away?" Tang Wulin also looked bewildered and asked Su Qiu, "Su Qiu, what did you say to the teacher just now? He seems... different."

Su Qiu picked up a piece of food with her chopsticks, chewed it slowly, and said casually, "It's nothing, I just gave him a goal to cultivate with."

"Goals?" Xu Xiaoyan tossed her pigtails. "A student giving a teacher goals?"

It's really contrary to Tiangang.

Gu Yue put down her chopsticks and looked at Su Qiu: "Do you really think that what you just said is true?"

“I guessed.” Su Qiu shrugged.

He then asked Gu Yue curiously, "Do you think it's possible to do it?"

Gu Yue lowered her eyes and raised her hand to brush a strand of hair behind her ear: "Who knows?"

Just then, a strong surge of soul power suddenly came from outside the window.

"This is..." Tang Wulin stood up in shock, "It's the teacher's aura!"

Everyone rushed to the window, where they saw Wu Changkong's figure hovering in mid-air in the distance.

A gap was torn open in the clouds, and silvery-white light poured down like a waterfall.

Above the six spirit rings surrounding him, the seventh spirit ring was slowly forming, radiating a terrifying pressure.

"He's breaking through to Soul Saint!" Xie Xie exclaimed, his mouth agape, forgetting to even eat the chicken leg in his hand.

Xu Xiaoyan clasped her hands together and bowed to Su Qiu: "Su Qiu, Su Qiu, what did you tell the teacher that made you break through?"

"I want me too."

After finishing the prayer, he realized that the person in front of him had somehow transformed into Na'er, who was protecting her food.

He immediately curled his lip and said, "Tsk."

Gu Yue gazed at the sky, a strange light flashing in her eyes, and said softly, "I see."

"His inner conflict remained unresolved, but he found a new obsession. This obsession is sometimes more powerful than letting go."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Changkong's figure transformed into a streak of light and instantly appeared inside the private room.

His soul power had been withdrawn, but a faint aura of frost remained around him. He looked at Su Qiu with a complex and solemn expression: "Thank you."

These two words, without any superfluous embellishment, carry immense power.

Su Qiu waved her hand: "Why thank me? You're amazing. Sit down, the food's getting cold."

He's in a good mood right now, and not just because Wu Changkong is his friend.

What makes me even happier is that I will have another great general under my command in the future.

Wu Changkong's cultivation speed is truly abnormal.

After what happened today, Wu Changkong will definitely stand firmly on his side.

What is Shrek? I'm not familiar with it.

In the afternoon, Wu Changkong led Su Qiu straight to the top-floor private room of the largest hotel in Tianhai City.

Shen Yi was also there, and Wu Changkong and she were waiting outside the door.

Su Qiu stepped into the private room alone, where a woman in a green dress was already waiting.

Her skin was as white as snow, and she was surrounded by a warm and pure aura, as if she had a holy halo. She was none other than the Holy Spirit Douluo Ya Li.

Oh, there was an old lady next to her, but Su Qiu didn't pay much attention to her.

They look ordinary; they must be Yali's attendants or something.

Not important. Probably.

　I think Wu Changkong is alright, it's just that his wife died, but his personality is rare.

　　It's more normal for characters to be less developed in Douluo Continent.
