Taotie's Problem

At this moment, everyone in the hall was so shocked by Xu Xingyu's explanation that they were speechless. No one present expected that simply evolving Xuan Zi's Martial Soul would cause such a big problem.

At this moment, Zhang Lexuan spoke up and asked, "Junior Xu, is your information reliable? I've never seen such a description of Taotie in the Sea God Pavilion's collection of books before."

It's no wonder Zhang Lexuan would suspect Xu Xingyu. After all, it's common knowledge that Xuan Zi needs to constantly eat, but to say that after evolving, his appetite would make him eat anything, regardless of whether it's food or not, is a bit too terrifying, isn't it?

This is far more troublesome than Ma Xiaotao's Evil Fire, which has plagued the academy for years!

Mu En remained silent. In his view, since Xu Xingyu was willing to say these things, there must be some basis for it. After all, the Spirit Contract Pagoda had the Soul Beast Clan as its backer, so it was quite normal for it to know such secrets among Soul Beast.

Xu Xingyu's next words confirmed Mu En's idea.

Xu Xingyu then said, "I can guarantee that this information is true. It was mentioned by the Beast God Di Tian when he told us about the secrets of the Dragon Clan at the Spirit Contract Pagoda."

"It was precisely because of this characteristic of the Taotie that the first Taotie, unable to control its appetite, began to kill its own kind. In the end, the Earth Dragon King had no choice but to kill the first Taotie, sacrificing its own kin for the greater good."

"Although the Earth Dragon King won that great battle, a large number of True Dragon that were devoured by the Taotie never returned. To prevent this from happening again, the Earth Dragon King could only request the Dragon God to exterminate all the pure-blooded Taotie. As for the mixed-blooded ones, they would be kept for observation. If they were to turn out like the pure-blooded Taotie, then they would have no choice but to be eliminated."

After the name of the Beast God Di Tian was mentioned, no one present dared to question Xu Xingyu anymore.

Because the Beast God Di Tian is not only the strongest person in the world, but also the only remaining pure- Blood Dragon Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King.

Legend has it that Di Tian possesses the purest bloodline of the Black Dragon Clan. If the Dragon Clan still exists, Di Tian has the potential to become the clan leader!

As a member of the Dragon Clan, Di Tian would naturally know these secrets related to the Dragon Clan, after all, he was born into the Dragon Clan!

Of course, only Xu Xingyu knew that this information about Taotie was not told to her by Di Tian, nor was it told to her by her memories as the Starry Dragon Emperor (after Xu Xingyu, the memories were still somewhat incomplete, and this happened before she was born). Rather, it was something Xu Xingyu had asked Gu Yuena about Taotie out of curiosity.

At that time, Gu Yuena also told Xu Xingyu about Taotie's deeds with a regretful expression. Originally, Taotie, as the most talented descendant of the Earth Dragon King, was a rising star who was destined to succeed the current Earth Dragon King.

Who knew that Taotie's gluttonous habit would cause such a huge mess?

It is important to know that the duty of the Earth Dragon King lineage is to help the Mountain Dragon Clan, which has now become part of the continent, eliminate any Parasite residing in the Mountain Dragon King. Therefore, every Earth Elemental Dragon Clan is endowed with the ability to devour rocks and metal.

Who knew that when it came to Taotie, it didn't just clean up, but wanted to eat everything. If it hadn't been stopped, Taotie might have eaten the entire continent beneath its feet, the Mountain Dragon, clean.

Therefore, the only option at that time was to capture and kill the opponent, Taotie was simply too threatening.

Mu En was also somewhat helpless. Mu En's desire for Xuan Zi to Martial Soul Evolution into a true Taotie was related to the Beast God Di Tian.

Mu En wanted Xuan Zi's Martial Soul Evolution into Taotie so that Xuan Zi's Martial Soul could successfully evolve and suppress Di Tian's bloodline, thereby using this to counterbalance the nominally strongest person in the world.

It should be noted that Taotie, as a descendant of the Earth Dragon King who underwent a positive mutation, theoretically possesses a bloodline power several points higher than that of Di Tian.

In an era when humans were unable to cultivate the Yin-Yang Complementary Soul Core Cultivation Method, the only way to catch up with the Beast God Di Tian was to find an advantage from the perspective of bloodline.

However, there are very few Dragon Clan bloodlines that can reach the level of Di Tian. Even Mu En's Radiant Sacred Dragon bloodline cannot reach the level of Di Tian at all.

At most, they can only rely on the principle of mutual restraint between light and darkness to contend with Di Tian for a while, but in the long run, Di Tian will still be the ultimate victor.

Unfortunately, after the problems were exposed by Xu Xingyu's information, Mu En dared not let Xuan Zi's Martial Soul complete its evolution.

Fortunately, when Xu Xingyu used the Myriad Beasts Blood Stele to amplify Xuan Zi last time, it allowed Elder Xuan's Martial Soul to reach a stage similar to that of Bei Bei.

The current Xuan Zi can consciously stimulate his bloodline to temporarily evolve his Martial Soul into Taotie to fight against others, but he will be exhausted after using it, and then he will have to spend a week focusing all his energy and attention on eating.

This is a very troublesome situation. Originally, it was thought that this problem would be avoided once the Taotie bloodline was restored, but the problem has become even bigger after restoration.

Well, this can be considered a trump card. Although it's not as safe as the pure-blooded Taotie Xuan Zi, who is at the Limit Douluo level, the side effects are much less of a problem. The current issue is how to give Xuan Zi the opportunity to break through.

Thinking about this, Mu En couldn't help but realize that his final fate had already been decided.

"Sigh, if that's the case, then the deal concerning Xuan Zi will be replaced with a promise."

"Promise?"

"Yes, Xu Xingyu, I can see that you are undoubtedly the most talented person in the entire Douluo Continent. Your talent is even far greater than that of our ancestor Tang San from ten thousand years ago. I believe that with your talent, you can make the phenomenon of becoming a god at level 100, which occurred ten thousand years ago, happen again. You will surely become the leading figure of the Douluo Continent."

Ma Xiaotao and Zhang Lexuan, standing to the side, were speechless upon hearing this. They had never heard Mu En praise anyone like this before. Ma Xiaotao, however, was relieved to think that the other party had casually given her a God Position.

But Zhang Lexuan was different. Ever since she was rescued by Mu En, she had been receiving special training from him. Finally, through her unremitting efforts, Mu En granted her the position of the next generation's Sea God Pavilion Master.

It can be said that after Mu En's death Xuan Zi was chosen as the Pavilion Master, once Xuan Zi chooses to retire, the position of the next Pavilion Master will belong to Zhang Lexuan.

This also means, in a sense, that Zhang Lexuan has the potential and strength to become Limit Douluo.

It was precisely because of this that Zhang Lexuan knew how picky Mu En was, yet he so highly praised this junior who had been chosen by Xiaotao Tao.

What kind of Magic Power does this little guy possess that made Mu En give him such a high evaluation?

For the first time in her life, Zhang Lexuan felt curious about someone.
