Douluo Continent: A Reincarnated Immortal, A Flute Melody Sends Off Heroes

Chapter 12 The Uncrowned King! A banished immortal, a desolate melody.

"Heavenly Horned Ant Technique, manifest!"

The immortal's voice was deep and powerful, and the phantom of the Heavenly Horned Ant suddenly raised its head and let out a low roar.

The roar contained boundless power, as if even space itself was slightly distorted by the force.

The Heavenly Horned Ant, one of the Ten Fiends, possesses ultimate power!

The phantoms of the True Phoenix and the Heavenly Horned Ant, two of the Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques, stood behind the banished immortal.

It's as if I've returned to the past, the uncrowned king! A banished immortal!

He slowly opened his eyes, a hint of satisfaction flashing in them.

Although the laws of this world are weak, he is still able to unleash tremendous power thanks to his first burst of immortal energy and his understanding of magical techniques.

"Next, we should plan for the second strand of immortal energy..."

"The Way of Slaughter!"

……

The next day, instead of teaching in the classroom, the immortal took Yu Tianheng, Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling and others to an open space behind the academy.

The environment here is serene and suitable for cultivation and practical training.

He was essentially giving extra lessons; he didn't have the time to lecture the other students.

"Today, we will not discuss the theory of martial spirits." The immortal stood before the crowd, his expression calm.

Because he didn't know what a martial soul was either...

If I'm not mistaken, the essence of a martial spirit is actually the embodiment of bloodline, while a spirit ring is the medium of power.

"Today, I will teach you how to use your Martial Soul and combat techniques."

Upon hearing this, a hint of excitement flashed in the eyes of Yu Tianheng and the others.

They've long since grown tired of those dry and boring theoretical concepts!

The immortal surveyed the crowd and said calmly, "Battle is not just a contest of strength, but also a matter of skill, mindset, and timing."

He first walked up to Yu Tianheng and said, "The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex is powerful, but too fierce and lacks versatility. Only by combining strength and gentleness can it be invincible."

Yu Tianheng nodded thoughtfully. Lack of variation... Aren't offensive Soul Masters just about outputting damage?

Then, the immortal walked up to Dugu Yan and said, "The Jade Phosphorous Serpent King is extremely venomous, but it relies too heavily on its poison. Remember, poison is merely a means; the real killing move lies in surprise."

"Poison will only be a deadly weapon when the enemy is completely unprepared!"

A flash of understanding crossed Dugu Yan's eyes, and she nodded respectfully: "Thank you, Immortal Master."

Just as the immortal was about to continue instructing Ye Lingling, a commotion suddenly arose in the distance.

Avalanche swaggered over with a group of senior students, their faces radiating arrogance.

"Hey, isn't this Yu Tianheng? What's up? Hiding here to secretly cultivate?" Xue Beng said sarcastically, his gaze sweeping over everyone before finally landing on Zhe Xian.

Yu Tianheng frowned and said coldly, "Avalanche, what are you doing here?"

Xue Beng chuckled, crossed his arms, and said smugly, "I came here to find my teacher, of course! Immortal Master, from today onwards, you are my personal teacher, right?"

After he finished speaking, he deliberately winked at the immortal, as if victory was already in his grasp.

Upon hearing this, the immortal raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.

He glanced at Avalanche indifferently, his tone calm yet tinged with sarcasm: "Oh? How come I didn't know?"

Xue Beng was taken aback, then said somewhat displeased, "My elder brother Xue Qinghe has already spoken to the academy, and you will be teaching me exclusively from now on! Yu Tianheng and the others are not qualified!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Tianheng and the others' expressions immediately turned ugly.

Dugu Yan couldn't help but sneer, "Avalanche, who do you think you are? What makes a banished immortal teacher like you a spoiled brat?"

Enraged by Dugu Yan's words, Xue Beng's face darkened, and he pointed at her, yelling, "Dugu Yan, don't be so arrogant! Don't think I won't curse you just because your grandfather is the Poison Master!"

The banished immortal looked at the scene before him and found it all quite amusing.

Over the years, he had also paid attention to the strength of the Heaven Dou Empire. To be honest, even the Immortal had no idea how a royal family without a titled Douluo could control the entire Heaven Dou Empire.

He shook his head and said calmly, "The academy can't control me. If they dare to assign any Tom, Dick, or Harry to me, I'll tear the academy down!"

Xue Beng was speechless at the words of the banished immortal, and his face instantly turned red.

His followers looked at each other, unsure of what to say next.

The immortal ignored the avalanche and turned to Yu Tianheng and the others, saying, "Continue your cultivation and don't be disturbed by irrelevant people."

Yu Tianheng and the others nodded respectfully and then began to continue practicing according to the instructions of the banished immortal.

Seeing this, Xue Beng was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he dared not show it in front of the immortal.

He glared fiercely at Yu Tianheng and uttered a harsh threat: "You just wait!"

After saying that, he led his group of followers away in a sorry state.

After Xue Beng had gone far away, Dugu Yan couldn't help but laugh and say, "Master Zhe Xian, you were so satisfying just now! That Xue Beng guy always flaunts his princely status and acts all high and mighty; someone should have taught him a lesson a long time ago!"

The immortal smiled faintly, saying nothing more. He looked up into the distance, a profound light flashing in his eyes.

Heavenly Dou Empire... Hmph.

"Next, I will teach you how to deal with group battles." The immortal withdrew his gaze and said to the crowd, "Remember, battles are not just a contest of strength, but also a battle of wits."

Upon hearing this, Yu Tianheng and the others perked up and listened attentively.

Meanwhile, Xue Beng stormed back to the Crown Prince's residence, found Xue Qinghe, and began to complain, "Brother, that immortal doesn't respect me at all! He actually humiliated me in front of everyone!"

Upon hearing this, Xue Qinghe—or rather, Qian Renxue—felt a flash of coldness in her eyes. She said calmly, "Fourth brother, you went to see him just now?"

Xue Beng was speechless at Xue Qinghe's words and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

"Big brother, didn't you say yesterday you'd help me arrange this?"

Qian Renxue cursed Xue Beng inwardly, thinking, "Why are all these royal children so arrogant and domineering?"

"You should go back first. I will personally go and pay my respects to this celestial master."

Xue Qinghe said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Xue Beng looked surprised: "Really? Then you should go quickly, brother."

The latest novel is first published here!

"Hmm," Xue Qinghe replied casually.

The avalanche was overjoyed, quickly said goodbye, and hurriedly ran outside.

"Sigh...this idiot." Qian Renxue shook her head helplessly.

I just hope that idiot Avalanche doesn't bring her into his conversation...

……

After teaching Yu Tianheng and the others the basic skills, the banished immortal sat on a huge rock on the back mountain.

Gently blew the jade flute in his hand.

This time, the flute music lacked the violence and oppression I had imagined; instead, it was filled with endless contemplation and reminiscence.

Long ago, the banished immortal also played this tune.

In the long, drawn-out flute melody, he seemed to travel through countless years, returning to a distant past...

In the blink of an eye, heaven and earth will perish, but I will still stand amidst the vast wilderness.

It shattered the heavens and buried the sky.

I wish to wield my sword and roar to the heavens, soaring into the vast ocean and descending on the whirlwind.

A dream of eternity returns; what path leads to nirvana?

In the blink of an eye, countless clouds and smoke could burn the sky and destroy the seas, all vanishing into nothingness.

How desolate! Only mountains and the moon are upside down.

I wish to surrender myself to the river tide, drifting aimlessly with cause and effect.

If this life is not over, the sword will not be returned to its sheath.

I have traversed the universe, faced countless deaths and tribulations, to protect the mortal world.

Who in the world has endured such bitter waiting?

I was destined to incur divine wrath and live a life of loneliness and wandering.

May all cause and effect befall me.

I shatter the heavens, alone deciding destiny, rising and falling with the tides.

Deep within the boundless azure sky, who suffers the bitterness of past lives?

I, detached from worldly affairs, suppress my foolishness and anger, looking back on countless moments of the past.

Even the deepest cycle of reincarnation is nothing more than dust settling in the earth. (Play your own background music)

……

At some point, the immortal stopped playing, a few tears welling up in his eyes.

"Unbeknownst to us, so many years have passed..."

"The great war from back then should be over by now!"

"Ara, will we ever meet again?"
