Bathed in the golden light emanating from the Golden Ancient Tree, not only did Mu En's physical condition completely recover to its peak, but his posture was no longer stooped, becoming incredibly upright once more.
Everyone else felt refreshed, as if their soul power and physical fitness had both received a significant boost.
Watching this scene, Niu Tian and Titan exchanged glances, both filled with shock.
So, this Golden Ancient Tree is Shrek Academy's biggest trump card? It healed Mu En's injuries so easily. Just what is the Golden Ancient Tree's origin?
This sky full of golden light came and went quickly. Once Mu En's body was completely healed, the golden light was gradually withdrawn by the Golden Ancient Tree.
Xuan Zi, Yan Shaozhe, and Qian Duoduo all felt a sense of emptiness, wishing they could grab the Golden Ancient Tree and have it unleash another wave of light.
Xuan Zi could guarantee that if he bathed in it a few more times, he would definitely break through the shackles of many years and successfully advance to Ultimate Douluo.
Unfortunately, the Golden Ancient Tree wouldn't act just because of his thoughts.
While Mu En was overjoyed with his body's return to its peak condition, several branches of the Golden Ancient Tree swayed slightly, as if a wave of thought entered Mu En's mind.
Even though no sound was made, Mu En was shocked to discover that he could completely understand the Golden Ancient Tree's meaning. After it finished expressing itself, Mu En was silent for a moment before nodding.
"I will."
At this point, the Golden Ancient Tree returned to stillness, as if nothing had happened.
However, Mu En's no longer hunched body, and his body's return to its peak condition, fully demonstrated that a miracle had occurred within Shrek Academy.
Niu Tian immediately asked, seeing this.
"What did the Golden Ancient Tree say?"
Whether it was Titan, Xuan Zi, Yan Shaozhe, Qian Duoduo, or the others, they were all focused on Mu En, eager to hear about the Golden Ancient Tree.
They had a lot of questions about this incredibly mysterious Golden Ancient Tree.
Mu En glanced at the Golden Ancient Tree, which had returned to its original state, showing no signs of anything unusual, and said slowly, "It didn't say anything specific, just told me to protect Shrek Academy and the continent, to keep it safe from the Sun Moon Empire and the Holy Spirit Cult."
Hearing this, Niu Tian, Titan, Xuan Zi, and the others fell into thought. They became increasingly curious about the origin and purpose of this Golden Ancient Tree.
After experiencing his initial joy, Mu En calmed down, but his mood was heavier than before.
As far as he knew, this Golden Ancient Tree had existed in the Poseidon Pavilion for thousands of years and had long become an important presence there. Moreover, generation after generation of Shrek's strongest had chosen to merge with the Golden Ancient Tree after their deaths, in order to watch over their successors.
Previously, when the Holy Spirit Cult had invaded, the reason he had been able to contend with Long Xiaoyao in his broken state, even subtly suppressing him, was because of the Golden Ancient Tree's assistance.
Mu En was chilled to the bone by the Golden Ancient Tree's complete self-healing.
The Golden Ancient Tree could have done this so easily, yet it had been indifferent to its injuries for so many years. Even the Holy Spirit Cult's previous invasion hadn't prompted it to take any extra action.
It was only after hearing Niu Tian mention that a god had appeared in the Sun Moon Empire that it decisively healed itself.
Was the Golden Ancient Tree really the will of Shrek Academy's ancestors?
Mu En, who had originally believed this without a doubt, now harbored lingering doubts.
He felt like he had lived in vain for hundreds of years, only now vaguely realizing that there were many secrets on the continent that were unknown to him. Even within Shrek Academy, he wasn't in control of everything!
Now that Mu En's body had recovered, and the Sun Moon Empire and the Holy Spirit Cult were no longer under control, Niu Tian naturally wanted to find a way to bring everything back on track. He immediately discussed with Mu En about how to get Wang Dong'er back to Shrek Academy.
Mu En responded immediately, suggesting that Shrek Academy could propose an exchange with the Sun Moon Royal Soul Tool Academy, allowing students from both sides to visit and study at each other's academies.
As long as Shrek Academy specifically requested Wang Dong'er to participate, it wouldn't be a problem.
As for whether the Sun Moon Royal Soul Tool Academy would accept this exchange?
Mu En felt that before the Soul Master Academy Tournament, they would have jumped at the chance and wouldn't have refused no matter what.
But now, it was really hard to say.
Even so, Mu En still sent someone to the Sun Moon Empire to express Shrek Academy's willingness to exchange and learn with them.
Meanwhile, at the Lake of Life in the center of the Star Dou Great Forest, Di Tian watched as his master had just returned and immediately began to scavenge the Life Essence Gold from the Lake of Life, and was completely stunned.
"Uh, Master, what are you doing?"
Gu Yue Na waved her hand indifferently.
"This thing is useful to me."
Di Tian was a bit flustered. He wanted to ask, but didn't dare. He was incredibly curious about what his master had been doing with the Auspicious Beast for the past year since they left the Star Dou Great Forest.
He felt that there was a huge difference in his master this time around.
After hesitating for a long time, Di Tian finally couldn't help himself and braced himself to ask.
"Um... Master, where's the Auspicious Beast? Didn't the Auspicious Beast come back with you? How is she doing?"
Di Tian was very concerned about Di Qiu'er's situation. Since Di Qiu'er was born in the Star Dou Great Forest, Di Tian had been raising her. Although it wasn't explicitly stated, all the ferocious beasts knew that in Di Tian's heart, Di Qiu'er, the Auspicious Beast, was like his daughter.
After hearing Di Tian's question, Gu Yue Na didn't get angry. Instead, she said directly.
"Don't worry, the Auspicious Beast is doing better than you imagine!"
So good that she even dares to compete with this Queen for a man!
Gu Yue Na snorted inwardly, not saying those words aloud.
Di Tian didn't doubt the truth of Gu Yue Na's words, and heaved a long sigh of relief internally. As long as everything was alright, it was a good thing for the Auspicious Beast to be by the Silver Dragon King's side.
Gu Yue Na considered it for a moment before deciding not to take all of the Life Essence Gold with her. Even if Huo Yuhao needed it, he certainly wouldn't use that much.
Since the purpose of this trip back to the Star Dou Great Forest had been achieved, Gu Yue Na naturally wouldn't stay any longer. If Huo Yuhao was somehow attacked while she was gone, she wouldn't know where to cry.
Anyway, with Di Tian guarding the Star Dou Great Forest, nothing unexpected should happen, so there was nothing more to say.
After giving Di Tian a few words of instruction, Gu Yue Na hurried away. Watching his master's back, Di Tian fell into deep thought.
He felt that something wasn't right, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
He just hoped that the future would be as his master had said, and that it would bring a huge surprise to the entire soul beast race.
On the way back to the Sun Moon Empire from the Star Dou Great Forest, Gu Yue Na suddenly remembered that Huo Yuhao had mentioned in his diary that he knew the approximate locations of those immortal herbs. The so-called Ice Fire Yin Yang Well was also created because of the Ice Fire Dragon King's fall.
Since that's the case, wouldn't it be possible to sweep through a place with Huo Yuhao?
