Chapter 861: Secret? (2/2)
”What kind of miracle foods did you eat, you little b.a.s.t.a.r.d? How did your strength increase so significantly?”
Tang Wulin shrugged, and replied, ”That's a secret. However, I can tell you that my strength has exceeded 100 tons long ago, and I can sense that it's been constantly increasing.”
As the master of the Body Sect, Mu Ye had always been extremely prideful when it came to his own body. He still hadn't become a Hyper Douluo yet, but he had always been convinced that his body was just as powerful as that of a Limit Douluo. However, Tang Wulin was only a Soul King, and his strength was making Mu Ye's confidence waver. If Tang Wulin were to continue to improve like this, it wouldn't be long before he exceeded Mu Ye's strength.
”You win, kid. I'm going to bestow upon you the body refinement method of our Body Sect later. You've got insane strength, but you have to learn how to use it.”
”What do you mean by that, Teacher?” Tang Wulin asked with a surprised look on his face.
Mu Ye answered his question with one of his own. ”You may have over 100 tons of strength, but how much of that can you unleash if you don't get close to your opponent?”
Tang Wulin replied, ”Outside of close-quarters combat, my strength is only used when I hurl a weapon or use it in conjunction with my martial soul or soul skills.”
Mu Ye shook his head upon hearing this. ”Your strength shouldn't be limited to just that. There's no conflict between your strength and your bloodline soul skills or martial soul soul skills. You're like a man sitting on top of a mountain of gold, but you don't know how to excavate it, and our Body Sect's body refinement method will teach you to do just that. However, don't become too enamored by your own strength; the key to cultivation still lies in improving your soul power. With sufficient soul power, every other area of your cultivation will progress far more quickly. In my younger days, I made the mistake of becoming too determined to improve my own physical strength. After that, I spent too much time researching mechas, and that's why I've still yet to become a Hyper Douluo.”
”Yes, Teacher.” Tang Wulin nodded with a serious expression. Mu Ye was definitely giving him heartfelt advice, and the look in his eyes indicated to Tang Wulin just how much this was weighing on him.
In his youth, Mu Ye was a prodigy of the Body Sect, and he was touted as the man who was most likely to surpa.s.s all of his predecessors. However, as he progressed, he began to run out of teachers of a high enough level to instruct him properly, thereby leading to some mistakes in his cultivation. On top of that, he was a jack of all trades, master of none, and that delayed him further in his soul power cultivation. Otherwise, with his apt.i.tude, there was a very good chance that he would've become a Limit Douluo with proper dedicated cultivation.
Mu Ye was preparing food ingredients as he asked, ”Have you met this Amorous Douluo before?”
Tang Wulin shook his head.
Mu Ye continued, ”I didn't think that the Tang Sect would be seeing you as such an important prospect. If you ever get the chance, try to forge a good relations.h.i.+p with him. He's an extremely powerful man in the Tang Sect, and a lot of the time, even the Douluo Palace Master isn't as influential as him. The Tang Sect Ice Fire Badge that he gave you is an extremely important opportunity; make sure you grab it with both hands.”
A curious look appeared on Tang Wulin's face. ”Teacher, what is the purpose of that Tang Sect Ice Fire Badge? You all seemed to be quite shocked when it was given to me.”
Mu Ye replied, ”The Tang Sect has a far longer history than our Body Sect, and its founder, Tang San, came across a treasured realm even before he founded the Tang Sect. This place is extremely obscure, and it's said that it's filled with traps and lethal poisons. However, there are many extraordinary spirit items being nurtured in that place, many of which are the best on the entire continent. I don't know the exact details because I've obviously never been there myself, but all you have to know is that both Tang San and Huo Yuhao had benefited immensely from that place.”
Tang Wulin became even more intrigued by the Tang Sect Ice Fire Badge upon hearing this, but it was quite clear that Mu Ye couldn't offer him any more information.
Mu Ye continued, ”After you get back to the Tang Sect, I'd advise you to use the seal right away. With the guidance of the Amorous Douluo, I'm sure you won't go wrong. By the way, don't get too close to him, though.”
Tang Wulin was rather perplexed. Mu Ye had just told him to forge a good relations.h.i.+p with Zang Xin if possible, so why was he telling him not to get too close to the Amorous Douluo now?
A peculiar look appeared on Mu Ye's face as a layer of gentle energy emanated from his body, encompa.s.sing both himself and Tang Wulin while isolating them from the outside world.
He then asked, ”Do you know the Douluo t.i.tle of the current Douluo Palace Master?”
