Chapter 6: Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan · Ning Tian (Part 2)
Hearing that Moyuan didn't probe further, Ning Tian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After signaling Wu Feng with her eyes not to say any more, the corners of her rosy lips curved into an arc. Coupled with her impossibly beautiful face, she was practically a man-reaper.
Is she preparing to seduce me already? Heh, mere beauty... bring more, I need to temper my state of mind severely!
Sensing the unusual color in Moyuan's deep dark eyes, Ning Tian felt both joy and shyness. Although she had prepared herself mentally, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous when it came to actual execution.
"Moyuan, didn't you say you were going to Shrek Academy? Coincidentally, after I obtain my third spirit ring, I'm also planning to go to Shrek with Wu Feng. Why don't we travel together? We can look after each other along the way."
Ning Tian proposed traveling with Moyuan. Such a reason, clearly intended to increase their contact time, naturally made Wu Feng very unhappy. But unfortunately, she had no say here now.
"Of course, after all, this is an invitation from the young master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. If I refused, countless young talents would probably list me at the top of 'The List of Those to be Executed'." Moyuan teased with a smile.
His current personality couldn't be said to be different from the past twelve years; it was completely unrelated.
When alone, Moyuan was always serious and cold, and his soul hunting was filled with brutality and killing intent. But this gave people a bad impression.
Because of his Black King's Blood, a definite Evil Martial Soul, and his intention to study at Shrek Academy, a forbidden place for Evil Soul Masters, Moyuan had always pretended to be gentle and refined in front of outsiders, precisely to avoid anyone associating him with Evil Soul Masters.
If Douluo Continent had a Golden Man award, Moyuan would undoubtedly be a recipient.
Speaking of which, the disguise ability of the Dragon Race has always been strong, wouldn't you say? Pompey, Shrimp Teacher?
Hearing Moyuan's teasing, Ning Tian lightly covered her mouth with her small hand and let out a soft laugh. "The List of Those to be Executed? What an interesting saying. I didn't expect you to be quite interesting, Moyuan. It's a pity that even if you refused my invitation, no one would object, because geniuses are always special."
"Genius? Heh, then thank you for your compliment, Miss Ning."
Watching Ning Tian and Moyuan exchange smiles and banter, Wu Feng's heart was filled with bitterness. She looked at them with the resentment of a wife whose father-in-law was committing adultery and whose husband was a gambling addict.
Sensing Wu Feng's complicated gaze, Moyuan's lips curved slightly upwards, feeling a sense of satisfaction like a "husband caught in the act."
After a few rounds of casual conversation, the distance between Moyuan and Ning Tian had shortened considerably. Considering that this was the perilous Star Dou Great Forest, Moyuan proposed traveling along the outskirts of the forest towards Shrek Academy, so they could also search for Huo Yuhao's trace.
With the decision made, the three immediately set off. Although there were guards protecting them from the shadows, the Star Dou Great Forest was still not a park for leisurely strolls. Therefore, Moyuan and Wu Feng protected the Support System spirit master Ning Tian between them, one on the left and one on the right.
However, the direction of their advance was always led by Moyuan. Although he couldn't directly pinpoint Huo Yuhao's current location, based on the senses deep within his bloodline, Moyuan could vaguely perceive the direction of the White Tiger Dagger.
Dense fog permeated the Star Dou Great Forest, and the fresh air mixed with the fragrance of the earth was refreshing to inhale.
Ever since the Star Dou Great Forest launched a Beast Tide years ago and Shrek Academy represented the human spirit masters in a compromise, after years of recuperation, the number and quality of spirit beasts within had reached an astonishing level.
Low-level spirit beasts found it difficult to compete for territory and food with the powerful spirit beasts. To survive, they had to migrate outwards. This was why the spirit beasts on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest were becoming stronger, even leading to spirit beasts frequently rushing out of the forest to harass surrounding villages.
Even on the path where Moyuan and the other two were advancing, they encountered more than a few thousand-year spirit beasts. However, with Ning Tian's assistance, Moyuan only needed a few slashes to kill them.
Among them, he also revealed the spirit ability of his second spirit ring.
Moyuan's spirit rings were merely keys to unlock his bloodline, possessing no spirit skills. Thus, to conceal this, he would select one from various levels of Yanling to use as a superficial spirit skill.
For instance, for his first and second spirit skills, Moyuan chose Yanling: Land of No Dust and Yanling: Lord Flame, respectively.
"I thought your Golden Eyes spirit, Moyuan, was of the mental element. I didn't expect it to be related to elements. Indeed, we still don't understand enough about Body Martial Souls," Ning Tian said, her eyes shining with admiration as she gazed at Moyuan, who stood amidst the crimson flames, wiping his long saber after igniting his Golden Eyes.
Her heart couldn't help but offer sincere praise, no matter how many times Ning Tian saw that perfect face, as if crafted by a deity.
Even Wu Feng, who liked Ning Tian, had to admit that if she didn't like girls, she would probably be deeply attracted to Moyuan.
"No, Golden Eyes is not an elemental type; it can also be a mental type," Moyuan thought to himself, recalling the White King who wielded the Mental Element.
Moyuan didn't offer further explanation. Instead, he turned his head towards the gloomy dense forest to his left, a flicker of joy flashing in his eyes.
They're finally here!
Just moments ago, the Dragon Blood aura that Moyuan had perceived as vague and fluctuating suddenly became much clearer.
Even though two years had passed since that drop of blood, the aura of the Black King's Blood still retained a familiar scent.
After glancing at Ning Tian and Wu Feng, who were resting not far away, Moyuan turned around, slowly closed his eyes, and silently recited a string of Profound Dragon Language.
"The black serpent swims, it is the messenger, and even more so, the eyes of the gods. They permeate the sky and the earth, bringing back the fluctuations of all things. Under its gaze, you have nowhere to hide, and nowhere to escape."
"Yanling: Vacuum Serpent."
The Flash Serpent horde, stored deep within Moyuan's mind, poured out. They traversed rapidly through the dense mist in the forest, using the moisture to bring Moyuan all information!
Compared to Yanling: Kamaitachi, which was also a functional Yanling, Vacuum Serpent, aside from its usage limitations and stamina consumption, was simply crushing.
If the wielder of Yanling: Kamaitachi had a low bloodline and couldn't advance to 'Vampire Scythe,' and their physique wasn't strong, they might even be chased by a Polar Bear without the aid of firearms.
You tell me, don't you, Caesar Gattuso?
As Vacuum Serpent moved at high speed, it quickly brought Moyuan a scene from hundreds of meters to the north.
In the forest stood a monkey spirit beast. Its body was covered in yellowish-brown fur, its arms were unusually long, its claws bore sharp nails, its fangs were bared menacingly, and its eyes blazed with ferocity.
It was none other than the Godslayer, renowned alongside the Man Faced Demon Spider, who had nearly killed the God of Pleasure—the Wind Baboon!
Opposite the Wind Baboon was a thin young soul master. He wasn't old, appearing to be around Moyuan's age, dressed shabbily and with an ordinary appearance. The only outstanding feature was his exceptionally bright, deep blue eyes.
In his hand, he held a white dagger. Upon closer inspection, one could see faint red traces at the tip of the dagger.
At this moment, the human and beast were locked in a fierce battle in the forest. Of course, the reality was that the young man was being chased by the Wind Baboon, forced to dodge and weave in a rather pathetic manner.
Tsk, tsk, tsk, this might be the closest the God of Pleasure, Huo Gua, has ever been to death in his life, right?
Moyuan watched the disheveled Huo Yuhao in his mind, with no intention of helping. His purpose for coming here was for the Necromantic Saint Law God—Electrolux. Finding Huo Yuhao was merely for locating him.
As for the million-year soul beast Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, Moyuan's attitude was that it didn't matter whether he had it or not. Moreover, he wasn't a spiritual soul master in the strict sense, so the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm wouldn't abandon Huo Gua to join him.
As for whether Huo Yuhao lived or died, it had nothing to do with him. If the Wind Baboon really killed Huo Yuhao, the only thing he might do was punch the Wind Baboon to death and erect a tombstone for it.
It would read: The Defying the Heavens soul beast that slayed the God of Emotion, the Godslayer Baboon God King!
Returning to the fight between the man and the beast, the Wind Baboon's ferocity was ignited after Huo Yuhao blocked its attacks several times. It raised its upper body, pounded its chest forcefully with its fists, and then let out a Roar. It suddenly lunged towards Huo Yuhao, opening its mouth wide as a ball of white light instantly shot out from its maw.
At the same time, it pounced fiercely towards Huo Yuhao, opening its Bloody Mouth.
At this moment of life and death, Huo Yuhao instinctively fell backward, raising the White Tiger Dagger. The white light collided squarely with the White Tiger Dagger.
The Wind Baboon leaped over the White Tiger Dagger, its two arms reaching straight for Huo Yuhao's shoulders, throwing him with a swing!
Man and beast flew out together. After a while, only Huo Yuhao struggled to get up, while the Wind Baboon twitched a few times and then lay still.
Huo Yuhao, the future God of Emotion, successfully counter-killed the ten-year soul beast Wind Baboon with his divine skill—Slide Tackle!
