Heaven Dou Empire's Supreme Treasure, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud

Lin Yuan stepped out of the room, looking at the two people still playing around in front of him, a smile on his face, "What's wrong, so happy today?"

Zhu Zhuqing and Ye Lingling stopped what they were doing and bowed respectfully towards Lin Yuan, saying, "Greetings, Teacher."

Lin Yuan nodded, one hand hovering behind his back, and stepped over. Looking at the two disciples in front of him, he had a satisfied smile on his face.

Ye Lingling and Zhu Zhuqing are already considered geniuses in the Soul Master World, and their future achievements will surely make them legendary figures in the Douluo Continent.

Lin Yuan gently rubbed Ye Lingling and Zhu Zhuqing's heads, then said, "You two must work hard to cultivate and strive to break through to the Soul Douluo realm as soon as possible."

Ye Lingling nodded obediently and said, "Don't worry, teacher, I will definitely work hard to cultivate and strive to break through to the Soul Douluo realm as soon as possible."

"Well, you all go and cultivate first. I have some things to attend to and need to go to the Heaven Dou Empire's Imperial Palace."

After explaining everything, Lin Yuan used his status as the Imperial Tutor to go directly to the Imperial Palace and meet with the current Xue Ye.

Xue Ye had just woken up when he saw that it was His Lord Lin Yuan come. He personally greeted him and invited him to his palace for tea and conversation.

"Your Lord Lin Yuan, what brings you here today?"

Xue Ye personally poured Lin Yuan a cup of tea and asked with some curiosity.

"I have indeed come here today with a matter to discuss, but I do not know if Your Majesty will be able to grant it."

Upon hearing this, Xue Ye was taken aback. He glanced at the guard beside him and then gestured for him to leave.

After the guards left, Xue Ye slowly spoke, "Imperial Tutor Lin Yuan, just say what you want to say. As long as it belongs to the Empire, I can give it all to you."

As the emperor of the empire, Xue Ye knew better than anyone that without Lin Yuan's help, the entire empire would likely have been destroyed by the Star Luo Empire and the Spirit Hall.

Seeing that Xue Ye had already said so, Lin Yuan didn't stand on ceremony and said directly, "I need the Heaven Dou Empire's supreme treasure, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud!"

Xue Ye's hand holding the teacup suddenly trembled, spilling scalding tea onto his sleeve, but he was completely unaware.

His pupils contracted slightly as he stared intently at Lin Yuan, his Adam's apple bobbing. "Imperial Tutor Lin Yuan should know that the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud is a national Divine Tool passed down for thousands of years by the Heaven Dou Imperial Family. If you rashly hand it over..."

"Your Majesty is overthinking it."

Lin Yuan lightly tapped the table with his fingertips, causing fine ripples to spread in his teacup. He replied calmly, "The Spirit Hall is stirring, and the Star Luo Empire is secretly amassing troops. If the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud remains in the Imperial Palace, it will only be a dead object that invites disaster."

With piercing eyes that seemed to penetrate the gauze curtains and gaze towards the sky, he slowly spoke, "Only by placing this item in the hands of someone who can unleash its true power can the empire be kept safe."

The Xue Ye remained silent for a long time, his aged face shrouded in shadow.

The Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud is not only a defensive treasure, but also a symbol of royal dignity. Lin Yuan has turned the tide several times, and half of the empire's elite Soul Master have received his guidance.

While the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud appears to be a special Soul Tool, it is actually the Heart of the Sea God.

If it weren't for this thing, Tang San wouldn't have been chosen by Sea God Poseidon, as his successor. Therefore, without the Vast Sea Protective Shroud, Tang San would have no way to become a qualified ocean guardian.

After much deliberation, Xue Ye Lin Yuan his son Xue Beng to the scene and ordered Xue Beng to retrieve the empire's most precious treasure, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.

In no time, the Fourth Prince Xue Beng took out a brocade plate from his Soul Tool and carried it to Lin Yuan. The plate was covered with a red cloth.

There's something bulging up below, but I don't know what it is.

It was an extremely strange object, entirely a translucent blue, three-dimensional triangular in shape. The whole thing seemed to be carved from sapphire, and it was only the size of a palm.

Within the crystalline blue light, a precious glow emanated, and strange energy fluctuations constantly emanated from it.

On this blue triangular body, there are ripple-like patterns. These patterns do not seem to be carved, but rather seem to be alive. Circles of blue light shimmer, reflecting a faint precious glow throughout the palace.

The Fourth Prince Xue Beng, looked at the object before him with envy in his eyes. The fact that even he felt envy was enough to demonstrate the object's preciousness.

Prince Xue Xing also looked at the treasure in Xue Beng's hand, and felt a pang of sorrow in his heart, because he also knew what it was.

That was the national treasure of the Heaven Dou Empire, which is enough to show how important the decision Xue Ye made before his death was to hand over the national treasure to someone outside the imperial family.

"This item is called the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud. In a sense, it can be considered a Soul Tool."

Prince Xue Xing was also quite distressed. If he hadn't been incapable of protecting the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, he probably would never have handed this item over to His Lord Lin Yuan.

Xue Ye slowly stood up, looked at Lin Yuan in front of him, and said softly, "Your Lord Lin Yuan, this is the treasure of my empire, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, which is also something that my emperors have protected throughout the ages."

"I know that with my strength, it is impossible for me to protect such a thing. If it could fall into Your Majesty's hands... it might be able to play its greatest role."

Xue Ye picked up the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud and personally handed it to Lin Yuan, saying solemnly, "I humbly request Your Lord Lin Yuan to help my Heaven Dou Empire overcome its difficulties in the future. I am deeply grateful."

"Also... could you, for my sake, allow Xue Beng to become your personal disciple?"

The Fourth Prince Xue Beng, was also excited as he looked at Lin Yuan in front of him, almost kneeling down and kowtowing to become his disciple.

Lin Yuan gently helped the Xue Ye to his feet and slowly said, "Your Majesty, rest assured. Since I promised you, I will not let the empire perish. However, due to my status, I can no longer take on any more disciples."

"I consider Xue Beng to be friends, so there's no need for me to kneel and bow like that."

Lin Yuan politely declined.

He already has two disciples, and he has poured all his heart and soul into these two disciples. If he were to take on more disciples, then helping Xue Beng find God Position would be the most difficult thing.

Therefore, Lin Yuan never considered taking on any more disciples. Apart from Ye Lingling and Zhu Zhuqing, no one else was qualified to become his personal disciple.

Upon hearing this, Xue Beng frowned slightly, his expression not looking good, but he still bowed respectfully towards Lin Yuan's position.

Xue Ye stroked his pale goatee. Seeing this, he said nothing more and simply let it go.
