Chapter 1431: Disruptive Dome

If it was any other organization that did this, it would certainly be questioned by the Federation as soon as they knew. However, perhaps due to the influence of public opinion, the Federation was completely silent on it. It was as if they did not know anything.
However, anyone with sharp eyes could see why Shrek Academy decided to conceal itself in such a manner. They did not want other parties spying on their reconstruction progress.
The disruptive soul devices covered more than the main teaching block. They covered the entire Sea God Lake. With the Sea God Lake as the center, there were thirty-two base points around it. Collectively, they made a soul device array and formed a shapeless disruptive dome that was thousands of meters tall. Only specific energy frequencies set by Shrek could be used within this disruptive dome.
When the disruptive soul device array was completed, the soul satellites would only be capturing a blank image. It would appear as if the Sea God Lake had disappeared completely.
In only half a month, the disruptive dome was completed. Without a doubt, this was thanks to the Tang Sect’s resources. The soul devices were supplied, installed, and conditioned by Tang Sect.
The moment the disruptive dome was finished, none of Shrek’s activities could be known by the outside world unless someone personally came down to the Sea God Lake and took a look with their own eyes.
With a splash, Tang Wulin dove into the water and swam gracefully in the lake. Naturally, the destruction energy contained within the lake’s water invaded his body, but it was completely sealed within the energy barrier he unleashed.
Every Tang Sect disciple that returned from the Demon Island was not particularly afraid of this destruction energy. By that point, three batches of students had returned from there, including Wu Siduo and the others.
After the Shrek Seven Monsters had come back and met their friends again, the first thing they got were hateful stares from the returned students. When Wu Siduo glared at Tang Wulin even the Sea God Pavilion’s Pavilion Master had an urge to run away.
Tang Wulin was well familiar with the waters of the Sea God Lake. Possibly due to the destruction energy preventing any life from taking hold in the waters, the Sea God Lake seemed exceptionally clear. As he swam, he felt as if he had entered a giant blue crystal. The water was cool, and it was easy to calm his mind within it.
He was not an ordinary soul master. There was the hidden threat of the Golden Dragon King’s seals within him. Although he was confident enough to break through the thirteenth seal after tempering his body with lightning, he was in no hurry whatsoever. It would be easier for him to withstand the breaking of the seals once he had a firmer foundation.
Additionally, Tang Wulin noticed another problem. After his cultivation base broke through to a Title Douluo’s rank, there seemed to be an effect from the sudden increase in his own soul power. The thirteenth seal had been fortified by Tang San before, but it had changed. It seemed to have become slightly looser.
Without a doubt, the seal would be influenced by his own cultivation base. The quicker his cultivation base improved, the quicker the seals were broken.
His eyes flickered with purple radiance. Tang Wulin could see clearly down to the very bottom of the lake, and he could see the Life Seed faraway.
Compared to when it was first planted, the Life Seed had undergone some changes again. A faint, greenish glow surrounded it. A small tree about a foot tall with nine leaves stood there silently in the center of the Sea God Lake.
In a place where no other living beings existed, it appeared lonely. However, it had brought a faint aura of life in this place filled with endless death and emptiness.
He floated over to the side of the Life Seed and sat down cross-legged. Soul power flowed within him, and white light was unleashed from within him. The light flowed toward the Life Seed like strands of silk.
The Mysterious Heaven Method’s soul power’s specialty was endless production. It was a cultivation method that was extremely rich in life force and also possessed nourishing properties. He was using his own soul power to nourish the Life Seed.
Influenced by his soul power, the Life Seed’s nine leaves gradually turned emerald. They looked succulent.
Neither the Federation nor the Spirit Pagoda had any way of knowing that the actual purpose for installing the disruptive dome was to conceal the Life Seed’s existence. This was because once the Life Seed provided enough life force, it would most likely grow quickly. When that time came, it would certainly attract attention.
A greenish-gold radiance spread out from Tang Wulin’s body. His identity as the Nature Child enabled him to absorb life force from a huge area. He then channeled the absorbed life force into the Life seed. Although it was not enough to make the Life Seed grow at an accelerated pace, it could at least maintain its current condition. The excessive destruction energy all around it would not cause it to wilt.
Since Tang Wulin’s cultivation base had reached a Title Douluo’s rank, his Nature Child’s power had also grown. Naturally, this meant that he could absorb more life force.
Hence, he now cultivated every night. He would come here and act as the bridge that attracted more life force for the Life Seed.
When the pure life force was channeled into the Life Seed, it would further refine it and give a portion of it back to Tang Wulin.
Although the life essence it gave back to Tang Wulin was minute, it was subtly improving Tang Wulin’s body.
Hence, Tang Wulin’s cultivation rate slowed greatly because he was supporting the Life Seed’s growth. In turn, his body was slowly and silently improving.
The Life Seed was not something that would drain the pond to get the fish. It told Tang Wulin that if he could cultivate until he became a Limit Douluo, the effects would be better.
This was the last time Tang Wulin would infuse the Life Seed with life force for a while as he would depart the next day toward the Great Star Dou Forest.
This time, only the Shrek Seven Monsters and the Gale Saber Demon Sima Jinchi would be going to the Great Star Dou Forest. Even A Ruheng would stay behind. This was because nobody could foresee the kinds of problems Shrek’s reconstruction would face. The Limit Douluos would conceal themselves in the dark while protecting the academy.
The early stage of the reconstruction was the most important, so there could not be any mistakes. The real core of Shrek’s reconstruction was the Life Seed deep under the lake. Only when the Life Seed grew into a huge tree and provided protection for the entire academy could Shrek’s reconstruction be considered a success. It would be like the Ancient Gold Tree which had always been the academy’s core.
The Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunition was a powerful weapon. If it were not for the Ancient Gold Tree which took the brunt of the explosion, Shrek Academy’s teachers could not have protected all of their students.
Back then, the Ancient Gold Tree was already wilting due to the insufficient supply of life force. If it was a healthy Ancient Gold Tree, it might be capable of protecting Shrek Academy. Hence, the recovery of the Life Seed was the heart of Shrek’s reconstruction.
The night went by without any words spoken. Early the next morning, under the protection of the disruptive dome, Tang Wulin and his companions embarked on their journey silently and left the Sea God Lake.
…
“We can’t confirm if the Atlas Douluo is still alive or not. We’re receiving interference waves. We can’t even monitor the progress of Shrek Academy’s reconstruction right now. How’s the preparation on your side?” Qiangu Dongfeng spoke into the soul communicator with a deep voice.
“Her Majesty the Demon Empress is awake. Ha Luosa has returned as well. But now, we have to focus our power on another matter, an important one. Shrek Academy won’t finish its reconstruction too soon. We’ll leave them be for now.”
“What?” Qiangu Dongfeng was infuriated when he heard this, “What’s more important than destroying Shrek?! Must I remind you of the promises you made to me back then? Also, Shrek’s existence will surely affect our continuity.”
“There’s no need to rush. Naturally, when we’re done with this, we’ll deal with Shrek. Her Majesty the Demon Empress has risen. I know that we believe that there’s no way that the Atlas Douluo could come back to life, but even if he did, what can he do?”
Qiangu Dongfeng was stunned. “What’s this matter you mentioned? Why are you being so secretive about it?”
“You don’t need to know that. It’s an internal matter for the Holy Spirit Cult. As for Shrek, you’ll have to think of some way to stall for time. If you can get your hands on a third Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunition and blast them again, that would be best.”
“What do you think a Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunition is?” Qiangu Dongfeng knitted his brows together tightly. He did not know why, but he had an ominous feeling when he heard the Ghost Emperor’s words.
What was the Holy Spirit Cult up to, being so secretive? For him, the Holy Spirit Cult had always been a double-edged sword. This organization, existing in the shadows, was capable of doing things which he, exposed by the light, could never do. However, the more he knew about the Holy Spirit Cult, the more he felt that he was unable to control it. If it were not for his ultimate goal, there was no way he would ask a tiger for its hide.
