Douluo Continent: From Internal Martial Arts to the Law of Heaven and Earth

……

Outside, Gu Yue wandered around aimlessly, her long silver hair shimmering faintly in the sunlight, her bright eyes curiously surveying her surroundings.

"My lord, I have already dealt with the Azure Ox Python that day. It is currently seriously injured and it will probably take several years to fully recover."

A dark green light streaked across the sky, and the Demon King landed on the ground, walked to Gu Yue's side, and bowed to report.

"Alright, I'll take Tang Shan back after he finishes absorbing the soul ring. You all be prepared." Gu Yue's gaze shifted to the Demon King, and she solemnly instructed him.

"Your subordinate obeys!" Although the Demon King did not know what preparations he should make, he still nodded seriously.

"Alright, you can go now." Gu Yue waved her hand, her clear eyes fixed on the young man in front of her, a myriad of complex emotions surging within them, finally settling into a resolute expression.

The Demon King did not immediately return to the true core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest, the Land of Great Calamity. After leaving Gu Yue's side, he took a detour and found Bi Ji, who was secretly protecting him. He asked her what preparations he should make. As for Xiong Jun, who was eating a honeycomb on the other side, he automatically ignored him. With Xiong Jun's brain, he certainly couldn't figure out such a thing.

After hearing the Demon King's question, Bi Ji smiled slightly and said, "There's nothing to prepare. Just be nice to him when he takes Tang Shan back."

"Be nicer?" The Demon King frowned slightly, stroking his chin as he fell into deep thought.

"Just don't look so fierce," Brigitte said bluntly, rubbing her forehead in exasperation.

"I see, I understand now." The Demon King suddenly realized, his brows relaxed, he thanked him, and then leaped up, heading straight for the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Biji turned her head, about to remind Xiong Jun, but when she saw the honeycomb in his hand, she swallowed back the words she was about to say. After all, Xiong Jun had been freeloading off Tang Shan for so many years. Even if his true identity was exposed in the future, would he still have any authority? Biji fell into deep doubt.

……

The Titan Body, indeed, the Titan's left palm bone soul skill is incomplete! In the soul skill space, Tang Shan's consciousness fluctuated constantly, reaching the peak of excitement.

When Tang Shan first acquired the external soul bone skill Great Power, he thought that this soul skill would become his core skill in the future. When the soul skill was activated, the power energy would continuously increase. What does that mean? It's practically a bug. Even with the dual limitations of physical fitness and power control, it cannot conceal the special nature of this soul skill.

However, after obtaining the Amethyst Origin, Tang Shan felt something was wrong. Unlike the Soul Skill "Dharma Image Heaven and Earth," which directly amplified his physique and increased his strength, it did not put any burden on his physical body.

The Amethyst Origin Soul Skill is a rule-based amplification skill. Although its amplification effect does not decrease with the increase of soul power level, the burden it places on the physical body is very real. After activating the terrifying power amplification of several hundred percent with the Amethyst Origin, if the external soul bone skill Great Power is activated on top of that, the body will quickly reach its limit, which is obviously not very scientific...

Chapter 428 Gu Yue's Operation

The Soul Skill "Great Might" is also the signature Soul Skill of the legendary Soul Beast Titan, "Titan Power." It can continuously absorb the primordial energy of heaven and earth, constantly amplifying its own power.

However, while this soul skill is powerful, it can never be the only core of Titan.

After all, the fundamental source of continuous power amplification is the primordial energy of heaven and earth. What if other soul beasts forcibly interfere with the gathering of primordial energy? Wouldn't that be equivalent to slashing Titan's major artery?

Clearly, besides its core ability of Great Power, Titan likely possesses other amplification skills.

Other amplification skills are also quite powerful, but considering the situation Tangshan experienced, it seems rather strange.

If physical attributes are limited, then there is definitely a limit to the explosive power that the physical body can withstand. This limit can be reached by relying solely on Great Power, or by combining Great Power with amplification techniques. So why has Great Power become the signature ability of Titans?

Everything became clear after Tang Shan discovered a special soul skill in the soul skill space. This soul skill would also make up for the shortcomings of his external soul bone skills, allowing the power he could unleash to advance to an unbelievable level.

With a slight fluctuation in consciousness, Tang Shan focused his thoughts. The moment he chose two soul skills, the other six consciousnesses rushed towards the other six soul skills. However, the terrifying barrier originating from the rules of heaven and earth still mercilessly expelled Tang Shan's consciousness.

After his consciousness returned to his body and was disordered for a moment, it returned to normal. Recalling everything he had just experienced, Tang Shan smiled bitterly to himself: Sure enough, this loophole was not so easy to exploit.

Just as he thought of this, he suddenly had some doubts. Tang Shan couldn't help but recall how he had fooled the Martial Soul Oath like a child, and then easily killed Meng Yiran.

Speaking of the rules of Douluo Continent, are they strict or flawed? Something feels off.

The absorption of the spirit ring energy proceeded without any further setbacks. Three days and three nights later, as the sky began to lighten with the first hint of dawn, the breakthrough was finally complete.

As Tang Shan opened his eyes, a terrifying aura of an ancient ferocious beast flashed before his eyes.

scare!

The silver-haired girl, who was bending down to examine Tang Shan's perfect face, was so intimidated by the terrifying aura that she couldn't help but jump back a step.

Tangshan?! Are you serious about that retreat? You're the Silver Dragon King, the ruler of all soul beasts!

Gu Yue was completely unaware that her already precarious Dragon King dignity was being shattered again and again in Tang Shan's heart. Seeing Tang Shan complete his breakthrough, she was happy but also a little nervous. After all, the truth was about to be revealed, and it was about to be revealed whether their futures would overlap or separate.

"Are you alright?" Tang Shan stood up, his somewhat agitated aura quickly subsided. At this moment, he was just like an ordinary Soul Master, without any intimidating presence.

"Are you alright?" The girl instinctively avoided Tang Shan's gaze. Seeing the Titan Giant Ape lying dead beside her, she deliberately changed the subject. "Let's see which part of the Titan Giant Ape's soul bone it has."

With that, Gu Yue teleported to the front of the Titan Ape's corpse. After probing it for a moment with her spiritual power, she gently raised her hand, and a spatial rift appeared on the Titan Ape's left arm.

The cutting power of the spatial rift was incredibly strong. The thick fur and tough flesh did not last long before being easily cut open. Soon, a faint fluctuation of soul power emanated from the huge wound on the left arm.

Tang Shan walked unhurriedly behind the girl, watching her series of actions with a faint smile on his face.

Gu Yue did not personally carry out the operation. A surge of azure energy flowed around her, and under her exquisite control, the azure whirlwind rushed into the wound. In a short while, a piece of dark gold left arm bone was pulled out by the energy.

Whoosh!

Water elements condensed, and clear water washed away the blood on the soul bone. Soon, this treasure, which was enough to make all the soul masters on the entire continent go crazy for it, revealed its true form.

The structure of the soul bone is similar to that of the human left arm, with a domineering and steady aura surging within it, and terrifying soul power brewing within it.

"Here you go." Gu Yue's voice was clear and crisp. With a wave of her small hand, the 100,000-year-old soul bone, which was enough to drive a titled Douluo crazy, appeared before Tang Shan's eyes.

"Alright, I'll keep it for now. Once you can use your secret technique to increase the lifespan of external soul bones, I'll use it as provisions." Tang Shan didn't stand on ceremony and put the soul bone away.

"Okay." Gu Yue smiled, but Tang Shan's words made her expression stiffen.

"The spirit rings have been acquired. Let's head back now." Tang Shan said softly, pulling the girl into his arms and gently stroking her soft, silver hair.

Gu Yue suddenly woke up with a start. She'd been so confused by Tang Shan's successful breakthrough that she'd almost forgotten her important business. But how was she supposed to broach the subject now? Should she just say, "I am the Silver Dragon King, I command a group of ferocious beasts with cultivation exceeding 100,000 years, I am the ruler of all soul beasts..."

Before Gu Yue could think too much, Tang Shan had already taken her hand and started their return journey. In a moment of urgency, Gu Yue activated spatial teleportation.

"Tangshan, I'll take you somewhere." Just as Tangshan was about to set off, the silver-haired girl's complex yet firm voice suddenly rang in his ears. Before he could react, the silver vortex had completely engulfed the two of them.

Gu Yue's thinking was very clear. No matter how it was explained, she would first take Tang Shan to the place of great danger. However, her actions had a bit of a forced kidnapping feel to them.

The spatial passage formed quickly and disappeared even faster. Before the other two beasts could react, Tangshan and Guyue had vanished without a trace.

The belatedly arriving Biji and Xiong Jun fell silent at the same time. After a long while, Xiong Jun hesitantly asked, "Where has my lord gone?"

Biji was somewhat troubled: "We should return to the Land of Great Calamity. I just hope that Di Tian and the others are prepared and don't still maintain their beast forms."

……

The atmosphere on the Shrek Academy's return journey was very somber, especially among the students, who unanimously split into two small groups. Tang San, Yu Tianheng, and Xiao Wu formed one group, wholeheartedly supporting Xiao Wu, while the other four huddled together, harboring some doubts about Xiao Wu's true identity and origins.

In the original novel, Dai Mubai and Ning Rongrong, who had many conflicts, actually united on this timeline. It can only be said that Tangshan has made a significant impact on the world. Under the butterfly effect, they have become the core of various small groups.

As for Tang San's statement and Flander's approval of a united front against external forces, Dai Mubai's small group didn't take it seriously at all. "Going against Tang San? How many lives do you have? Isn't it good to be alive? Why do you have to seek death?"

Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar have already perfectly inherited the bullying mentality that Shrek Academy students should have. As for Ning Rongrong, her witch nature combined with these three is truly a powerful alliance, adding fuel to the fire. All talk of working together is bullshit. I only mess with those I can handle, and as for those I can't, I'll definitely keep my distance.

Chapter 429 Shrek's Ups and Downs

Despite Tang Shan's final warning, Ning Rongrong still didn't tell the sect that Tang Shan was involved in the death of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's titled Douluo. She had thought it through clearly: she had caused such a big mess, and if she told her father about it, she would definitely suffer the consequences. She would most likely be confined to the sect to cultivate and would never be able to play happily again.

Tang Shan was already prepared to overturn the chessboard, but he never expected that Ning Rongrong would forcibly conceal such important news for her own pleasure. He could only sigh and say that she was indeed a witch.

After leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, Flander and his group stayed temporarily at an inn in a small town on the outskirts of the city. Flander gathered everyone together to give a speech.

This is a dilapidated room. The cobwebs in the corners have not been cleaned, and the broken tables and chairs are rotten, which shows how long it has been through.

The room wasn't large, only about 30 square meters. Two wooden beds already took up a considerable amount of space, making it feel somewhat crowded as the Shrek Seven Devils, Zhao Wuji, and Flander sat inside.

clap clap clap!

Flander clapped lightly, attracting everyone's attention. His gaze swept over the little monsters in front of him. He cleared his throat and slowly said, "You are the best students I have ever received since I opened this academy. Your future is incredibly bright. We, the teachers, will do everything we can to nurture you. Next, we will undergo grueling training. I hope you can work together to complete it. At that time, I believe you will undergo earth-shattering changes."

Flander's thinking was clear: regardless of Xiao Wu's background, she had the support of Tang San and Yu Tianheng.

The geniuses of the three upper sects, Xiao Wu, possess innate full soul power, a food-type innate full soul power, a mutated fire phoenix martial soul, and the Star Luo royal family's top martial soul, the White Tiger. Flander was certain that he might only encounter such an exaggerated configuration once in his life, and if he didn't use it to rise to power, he would definitely regret it for the rest of his life and die with regrets.

So what if there are many conflicts? He believed that his abilities were enough to unite them in one direction. The grueling training would bridge the gap, and then came the Great Battle Arena. Only through continuous battles could they forge an ironclad camaraderie.

Countless thoughts arose and disappeared in his mind. Flander's sharp gaze swept over the group of trainees, and his voice was firm and infectious: "Children, there may be some misunderstandings between you now, but that's nothing. I hope you won't bring your conflicts into the training and will work together as a team."

The Shrek Seven Devils exchanged glances for a moment before their gazes returned to the middle-aged man in the center. Flander continued speaking, seemingly recalling his own youth, his tone becoming more complex: "I hope that when you grow up and look back on your youth, you will only feel regret and感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex feeling of mixed emotions), rather than regret for your stubbornness."

Flander said this from the bottom of his heart. If he had actively pursued Liu Erlong when Yu Xiaogang ran away from his wedding, could he have won the beauty's heart?

Unfortunately, time has passed and it's too late. He has long lost the drive he had in his youth, and all he can do now is try his best to bring the two of them together and wish them happiness.

“Dean, I’ll listen to you.” Dai Mubai broke the deadlock by speaking up. He looked at Tang San and said, “I hope we can trust each other in the future and not let one person’s mistake harm the whole group. Of course, if we are not at fault, we will not let others bully us.”

Tang San was moved and inspired by Flander's words, and couldn't wait to declare: "Okay, let's not dwell on the past. From now on, let's work together to build Shrek Academy's glory!"

"Let's build Shrek's glory together!"

"Let's build Shrek's glory together!"

Everyone shouted in unison, and the barriers between them disappeared without them even realizing it, except for Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu wore a forced smile and echoed loudly, but her left fist had already clenched tightly without her realizing it, revealing the deep resentment in her heart.

The one who's wrong is Tang Shan. He killed Erming and made me personally send away my own bloodline. Is it wrong for me to hate him?

All we can say is that Xiao Wu has been living for 100,000 years, and Tang Shan's reasons for targeting her have never been about right or wrong, but rather about the potential life-threatening danger posed by a deity whose existence is unknown. This is a precautionary measure taken in advance.

Just then, a warm, large hand quietly covered her fist. Xiao Wu turned her head and saw Yu Tianheng looking at her with firm eyes. A warm feeling flowed through her heart. It seemed that there were still people in this world who supported her.

Compared to Xiao Wu, Yu Tianheng's situation is more complicated. He learned part of the truth about the destruction of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan from Tang Shan. He must support Shrek Academy, a group full of geniuses, because it is impossible for him to defeat Tang Shan and the powerful figures hidden behind him on his own.

They seem to have put aside their conflict with Tangshan now, but Yu Tianheng believes in human nature. This humiliating history of weakness will be brought up again sooner or later, and that may be the time for him to take revenge for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Looking at the Shrek Seven Devils reunited, Flander's face revealed undisguised joy. With the devilish training as the first step to reconcile them and the group battle as the final refinement, the Shrek Seven Devils would surely be invincible.

……

Over here, Dean Flander was plotting a grand plan for group battles, and the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy was doing the same.

Qin Ming, a teacher at Tiandou Academy, stood in front of a group of students and said loudly, "Children, those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre. When facing a powerful enemy, we must rise to the challenge and never back down."

"Yes!"

Glancing at the three unusual individuals in his team, Qin Ming was already used to it. One was the current Crown Princess, another was the Crown Princess's sister, and the third was related to the prodigy Tang Shan and had the Poison Douluo behind him. None of them were people he could afford to offend.

However, upon thinking of his fellow participants from the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament, Qin Ming's helplessness uncontrollably transformed into an undisguised smile: Tang Shan, who could fight Soul Douluo, and Gu Yue, whose talent was in no way inferior to his opponent's, how could their Heavenly Dou Empire possibly lose this All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament?

In Qin Ming's opinion, why bother with the competition? Just award the championship to their Heavenly Dou Empire.

The three people Qin Ming was paying attention to were none other than the Zhu sisters and Dugu Yan.

Now twenty-one years old and fully grown up, Zhu Zhuyun never expected that she would encounter an opponent at the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy. Whether in appearance, physique, strength, or temperament, the opponent was evenly matched with her. Fortunately, her Zhu family was exceptionally talented; otherwise, she would have had no advantage against such a formidable enemy.

Her long, emerald-green hair cascaded naturally down to her waist. Her stunningly beautiful face was flawless, her skin as white as jade, radiating a soft, warm glow. Her nose was delicate and straight, and her lips carried a natural blush. Aside from an aloof and unapproachable coldness, her deep purple, crystal-like eyes added a touch of bewitching allure to that coldness, captivating hearts with every glance, making her all the more enchanting.

Her emerald green dress perfectly accentuated her shapely figure, with a slender and graceful waist, undulating curves, and smooth and beautiful shoulder and neck lines. The drooping skirt further emphasized her tall and slender figure, making her look like a graceful and beautiful snake.

P.S.: The major tournaments will be described briefly, except for the final battle.
