Soul Land: Top Comprehension-Chapter 353 - 229: Seeking the Essence Sect

Leaving Shrek Academy, the five traveled eastward all the way.

Entering the area that originally belonged to the Celestial Soul Empire, Su Yu parted ways with the other four.

"You guys go back to Mingde Hall first, I have some things to take care of," Su Yu said.

Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen didn’t ask what important matters Su Yu had.

After a year of cultivation in the Sea God Pavilion, deep meditation, equivalent to comprehension, took up nearly half the time, and even though there was six months to validate their insights, it still wasn’t enough.

Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen now needed a large amount of time in seclusion to absorb and digest everything.

Meanwhile, Bai Feng also needed to return to Mingde Hall to prepare for the next Soul Fighting Competition.

Indeed, the next Soul Fighting Competition.

The Sun and Moon Empire had already decided that they must complete the unification war of the Douluo Continent before the next Soul Fighting Competition, and initially pacify the chaos, using the competition to alleviate the impact of the war.

This time, the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Guide Academy still aims to take first place.

And Bai Feng, although he might be only eleven years old when the next Soul Fighting Competition starts, he also has hopes of becoming a seed player!

"Three and a half years left, strive to reach Soul Sect before the Soul Fighting Competition."

Su Yu assigned his disciple a task.

Twelve years old, Soul Sect.

Even though Su Yu himself wasn’t much different back then, he and Bai Feng were not the same.

Su Yu’s initial Martial Soul was not outstanding, only becoming powerful after the first few Soul Rings were added, continually exploring the Life Attribute and mutating.

But Bai Feng already had a top-level Martial Soul and with Su Yu’s cultivation experience, he had it much easier.

Reaching Soul Sect at twelve is still quite challenging.

Moreover, Bai Feng’s gains in the Sea God Pavilion were significant.

Just relying on his Martial Soul’s fusion degree with himself, it made his already fast cultivation speed even faster.

In fact, Su Yu felt that if resources and opportunities were sufficient, Bai Feng might even reach Soul King at twelve!

"When I return to Mingdu, I’ll take you to Dragon Valley, it’s also a place of opportunity for you."

Only Soul Masters below Soul King could enter Dragon Valley, and Su Yu planned to take Bai Feng there when he broke through to Soul Sect.

To lay a solid foundation, accumulate strength, and swiftly break through to Soul King.

Only then, could Bai Feng truly become a main team member in the next competition.

...

"Oh right, pass a message to Yuhao for me, tell him not to rush, wait for me to return to Mingdu first."

Huo Yuhao had already left the Sea God Pavilion early because of Orange.

Nearly half a year had passed by now, and Orange had successfully become pregnant, but whether the process was the same as in the original story, Su Yu wasn’t sure.

He only knew that the last pureblood prince of the royal family was accused of desecrating the Empress and was granted death by Xu Tianran.

...

After parting, Su Yu headed towards Tiandou City.

Essence Sect.

This time his target was the Essence Sect.

Currently, Shrek Academy had abandoned resistance against the Sun and Moon Empire’s unification of the continent, leaving only the Essence Sect.

This Essence Sect is somewhat tragic.

After all, they propagate that Body Martial Souls are one family.

And Body Martial Souls were originally a disadvantaged group, unless they joined the Essence Sect, Body Martial Soul holders were at the bottom of the Soul Master Realm.

So they weren’t really aligned with any faction in the Douluo Three Kingdoms, but rather established a pure land for Body Martial Soul holders.

Even the Sun and Moon Empire had Soul Masters with Body Martial Souls, meaning they had family there.

One could say that the Essence Sect was more inclusive than Shrek in terms of doctrine, not having an obvious bias against the Sun and Moon Empire like the Douluo Three Kingdoms.

But the issue arose with Vina from the Celestial Soul Empire being a Body Martial Soul, joining the Essence Sect, and getting engaged to the Young Sect Leader, Long Aotian, thus binding the two powers together.

The Essence Sect instead became a passive resistor against the Sun and Moon Empire.

"Clearly, the Essence Sect causes trouble everywhere, making enemies of major forces across the continent, but at this time makes peace with the Douluo Three Kingdoms to resist the Sun and Moon Empire, what’s the point?"

Su Yu held such sentiments as he sought the Essence Sect’s whereabouts.

Poison Undying was a Level 98 Super Douluo.

If they continued opposing the Sun and Moon Empire, the unification war would be challenging.

The most crucial point is that Poison Undying possesses Poison Attribute abilities.

Though his Martial Soul doesn’t have a Poison Attribute, his cultivation in poison skills makes him no less fearsome than the Poison Douluo from ten thousand years ago.

Despite the fact that Poison Douluo was invincible in group attacks, it was true that he was weak amongst Titled Douluos, but Poison Undying was undeniably a Level 98 Super Douluo, also mastering various Body Secret Techniques.

Thus, they must find a way to deal with Poison Undying.

...

Tiandou City.

Su Yu arrived outside the city gates.

He just checked the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye, and it wasn’t damaged.

It seems those two guys from the Haotian Sect still had some scruples, not forcing their way into the Sunset Forest.

Arriving at a large mansion on the outskirts of Tiandou City, Su Yu looked far into the distance.

Kuangyun Trading Group!

The once little Guard Team had now become a considerable Trade Group.

"Su Yu?" Songzi was pleasantly surprised to see Su Yu.

Back then, they didn’t know the value of Su Yu’s name, but now they were clear.

For them, it’s a source of pride that Su Yu once spent some time with their Kuangyun Guard Team.
