Unusual Activity of the Golden Tree

"Teacher, do we really not need to find out the origin of Huo Yuhao's Second Martial Soul?"

"No need. He wasn't born in the Sun Moon Empire, nor is he Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast who has been reborn. We just need to treat him normally."

Yan Shaozhe didn't quite understand Mu En's thinking. It was already certain that Huo Yuhao's Second Martial Soul wasn't innate, so why not ask him properly?

Perhaps this will allow Shrek to master the method of creating artificial Twin Martial Souls.

However, once Mu En has made a decision, even Yan Shaozhe wouldn't dare to disobey it. Moreover, Huo Yuhao's case involves his disciple Ma Xiaotao, so Yan Shaozhe is even less likely to lay a hand on Huo Yuhao.

"Teacher, what about Chen Yuan? Are we really going to allow him to not join the Inspector Group?"

In Yan Shaozhe's view, Chen Yuan's opinions about the Shrek Inspectorate could be eliminated. If such a promising talent couldn't join the Inspector Group, how could he appreciate the greatness of Shrek?

How could he willingly become a member of Shrek Shrek if he didn't feel its greatness?

This is a genius with the potential to become the Ultimate Fire; are we really just going to ignore him like this?

"Yan Shaozhe, Shrek is ultimately an academy; we shouldn't let our students feel pressured by the academy."

"If Shrek really had no problems at all, that kid Chen Yuan would have joined long ago. Chen Yuan has already agreed to my conditions."

"In the future, he will be the nightmare of all Evil Soul Master Evil Soul Master and will be their enemy. Once this is confirmed, it will not matter whether he joins the Inspector Group or not."

Mu En's idea was simple: since Chen Yuan didn't want to Shrek, all he needed to do was ensure that Chen Yuan maintained a good relationship with Shrek and that he had a sense of justice.

Chen Yuan's village had been massacred by Evil Soul Master, Mu En believed that Chen Yuan would show no mercy if he saw any other Evil Soul Master.

Thinking of Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao, Mu En couldn't help but feel nostalgic for the days when they traveled the continent together.

Over the years, he's thought a lot about it, always feeling that something's not right, but he can't quite put his finger on it.

Chen Yuan didn't know how long he had been in this room filled with flames; all he knew was that his Soul Power had reached level fifty-four.

Chen Yuan had basically absorbed all the fire element in the room, leaving only a few Mars behind the once-fiery flames.

Feeling that his cultivation was nearly complete, Chen Yuan was about to exit the meditative state when the Heart of Life within his chest pounded violently, radiating unparalleled vitality that dyed Chen Yuan body a vibrant emerald green.

From the outside, the entire Golden Tree radiated a dazzling light at this moment, turning the entire sky above Shrek Academy green.

With such a commotion, it would be hard for the Shrek Academy students not to notice. Just as they were about to investigate what was going on, the astonishing sight quickly faded away.

The green light was gathered by the Golden Tree and disappeared.

The elders, now airborne, looked at each other, their faces filled with bewilderment. In all their years at Shrek, they had never witnessed anything like this.

Inside the room at the base of the Golden Tree, the light of the Heart of Life within Chen Yuan's chest gradually receded, and the rich life force continuously strengthened Chen Yuan's body.

After the upgrade was completed, Chen Yuan felt his heart pounding, and he felt as if something had been added to the Heart of Life.

The feeling was hazy and unreal; if it weren't for the recent anomaly in the Heart of Life, Chen Yuan might have thought it was just his imagination.

"Old Yi, what just happened?"

"Chen Yuan, is this giant tree you're standing on the Life Core in your world that you told me about before?"

"Yes, it's this Golden Tree."

Having received an affirmative answer, Electrolux fell silent.

"You have become Son of Nature in this plane. Just now, this Life Core entrusted you with the Seed of Nature it had nurtured."

"Now that Seed of Nature resides in your heart, the significance of the Son of Nature and the Seed of Nature is self-evident and needs no further explanation from me."

"It seems that the Sea God Tang San you mentioned is posing a rather great threat to your world."

Only when the natural world of the Douluo Continent is severely damaged will the Golden Tree, the highest of the plant life forms, cultivate a seed, which is the Seed of Nature.

The plant or animal that possesses this seed is the Son of Nature. The possessor could be any plant or animal. The Son of Nature's task is to find an opportunity for the Seed of Nature to take root and sprout, becoming the new core of nature in the future.

Having become Son of Nature, if Chen Yuan were to die now, no new core would be born on the Douluo Continent, and the entire natural food chain would gradually collapse.

It can be said that Chen Yuan's life now concerns the future of the entire Douluo Continent. Even if the gods in heaven wanted to harm Chen Yuan, they would have to consider the consequences.

The Son of Nature has only appeared a few times, and has never appeared in a human. No one knows whether the Seed of Nature can still germinate successfully if the Son of Nature is killed.

Nobody dares to gamble on that possibility.

Since the Golden Tree has given its condensed seed to Chen Yuan, it means that Ah Yin has already begun to plot to seize the position of the Life Core of the Douluo Continent.

However, as long as the Seed of Nature exists, even if the Golden Tree is replaced by Ah Yin, she cannot become the Life Core.

The Seed of Nature is the crown prince appointed by the previous generation. As long as the Seed of Nature exists, Ah Yin will never be able to become the Life Core.

Of course, if Ah Yin were to enter the Seed of Nature Seed of Nature and possess it, then Chen Yuan would say nothing.

Currently, this possibility seems extremely slim.

What just happened was not a bad thing for Chen Yuan; in fact, it was a tremendous opportunity.

Emerging from his cultivation state, Chen Yuan opened his eyes. The room was pitch black, with only a few scattered Mars providing some light.

Chen Yuan raised a ball of fire in his hand, and some of the flames from it ignited the fire in the room.

After the firelight illuminated the entire room, Chen Yuan left the room, satisfied.

Having been inactive for a long time, Chen Yuan felt a little unaccustomed to it at first, but when he felt his Soul Power had reached level 54, he felt great.

Upon arriving at the underground hall, Mu En remained lying motionless on the recliner, suggesting that Chen Yuan's seclusion had not been long.

Noticing Chen Yuan approaching, Mu En lazily raised his eyelids and glanced at Chen Yuan. In that one glance, a storm raged within Mu En's heart.

He couldn't see through Chen Yuan at all!

The Chen Yuan before me seemed to have merged with the world; no, he and the world were one.

Harmony between man and nature?

No, Chen Yuan's Spiritual Power far surpasses that of his peers, but he is still far from reaching the state of oneness with nature.

What exactly happened?

A single meditation on the Golden Tree was enough to bring about such a change in him.

"Chen Yuan, have you found the path you want to take?"

"Yes, it was found a long time ago, and it hasn't changed."

"Oh? Can you tell this old man about it?"

Mu En was very curious about the path Chen Yuan was going to take. What kind of path could make a genius like Chen Yuan so determined?

"I will let my flames burn throughout the entire Douluo Continent!"

"Evil Soul Master, bandits and nobles who oppress the common people, my Yang Flame will burn their lives and their crimes to ashes."

"Haha, that's really a good path. Keep it up! It won't be easy to achieve this. Remember, you'll always be a Shrek student. If anything happens, Shrek Academy will back you up."

"Alright, let's go get something to eat over there. It's been over a month. Even if you're Soul King, not eating for that long isn't good for your health."

"After this Soul Bone eats something, it can fuse here. I'll protect you, old man."

In Mu En's hands lay a fiery red right leg bone. This wasn't one of the Soul Bone he'd brought back from the competition, but why?

When did Shrek Academy become so generous? Giving him a Soul Bone? They couldn't even get him a ten- Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring before.

"Mu En, this doesn't seem to be my Soul Bone, does it?"

"Yes, it's yours. You contributed the most to this competition. Without you, Shrek probably wouldn't have won the championship. But none of those Soul Bone are suitable for you. The Soul Skill of that Phantom Wing Flying Luan skull is good, but its age is too low."

"That Soul Bone is here," the Phantom Winged Skull appeared in Mu En's other hand. "This skull is also yours, but it's best not to fuse with it. You'll definitely get a better skull than this Soul Bone in the future."

"Ah?"

"Don't be surprised. If you want to thank someone, go thank Gong Changlong."

"Elder Gong?"

"He saw that none of the several Soul Bone were particularly suitable for you, so he took out one of his most treasured 40,000-year-old Soul Bone from a pure fire-attribute Soul Beast. Coincidentally, I, the old man, have a Soul Bone of the same type and position from the same Soul Beast."

"I used a Secret Technique Soul Bone Soul Bone. Fortunately, I was lucky and successfully fused them into the 70,000-year-old Soul Bone I have now. If you can find another Soul Bone of the same type and position from a Soul Beast in the future, you might be able to fuse it into Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone."

"Don't let Gong Changlong's kindness go to waste. Go eat something quickly, and then fuse with him."

Taking the right leg bone from Mu En, Chen Yuan Soul Bone its surface, remembering the kindness Gong Changlong had shown him.

Chen Yuan could sense that this Soul Bone was very suitable for him. The Soul Bone was of a very high age. Although it had not reached 100,000 years, the significance it contained was much more precious than that of Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone Soul Bone.

Now that he is the Son of Nature, his safety on the journey to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well has greatly increased, and the surrounding poisonous barriers are no match for the Ultimate Fire.

Once inside, the identity of the Son of Nature will be revealed, and obtaining the Infernal Delicate Apricot Blazing Glue or the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower will be no problem.

Since Gong Changlong treated him so well, Chen Yuan should definitely repay him. In any case, Chen Yuan had already reached the Ultimate Fire and didn't need to increase his attribute level at all.

Chen Yuan still owes a Soul Beast that is at least 60,000 years old.

We can't renege on the debt, so let's pay it all back together.

Chen Yuan suddenly remembered that after the fusion of the Gold of Life, as long as only the head remained, it could grow back, right? His situation was different, but wouldn't it be easy for him to simply grow back his limbs?

Just imagining that scene made Chen Yuan shudder. He decided to let Electrolux research how to quickly increase the age of his Soul Bone.

Electrolux: Why does it feel like there's even more to research now?
