Chapter 57 Wants to Adopt a Son
"Senior, what does that mean? What home are you going back to?" Lin Feng asked, puzzled.
He didn't know much about the Body Sect, because Yan Shaozhe had revealed some fragmented information about himself, as he possessed the Body Martial Soul.
Like the reclusive Haotian Sect that Wang Dong mentioned, which has a Limit Douluo at its helm, this Body Sect is also a gathering place for powerful individuals, but it has been hidden from the world for many years, making it difficult to find. However, once it reappears in the world, it will surely be accompanied by a major event that will shake the continent.
More than two thousand years ago, the emergence of the Body Sect resulted in a great defeat of Shrek Academy, which was already the number one academy on the Douluo Continent at the time, and the battle shook the world.
To counter the Body Sect, Shrek Academy had to recall its top alumni scattered across the continent and establish the Sea God Pavilion, which barely managed to defeat the Body Sect and quell the turmoil. Since then, the Body Sect has disappeared without a trace and has not made any large-scale moves since.
"Home?" Poison Immortal laughed heartily, his voice booming and full of pride. "Naturally, it's the common home of all Soul Masters who possess a Body Spirit! Boy, you possess a Body Spirit, so you're one of my Body Sect members. Now that I've encountered you, how can I let you wander outside?"
His gaze toward Lin Feng was intense, containing not only the scrutiny of a powerful figure toward a junior, but also the joy of finding a long-lost relative.
"Senior, I still have to go back to Shrek Academy to report, so I'm afraid this is not appropriate?" Lin Feng tried to politely decline.
"Go back my ass!" Poisonous Undying glared, his voice booming with an undeniable arrogance. "What is Shrek Academy? Even if that old codger Xuanzi came in person today, you wouldn't be going back! From this moment on, you are my adopted son, Poisonous Undying!"
"Why are you taking advantage of me, senior?" Lin Feng was a little confused by this sudden family reunion and couldn't help but retort.
He hadn't expected the Body Sect to act so domineeringly, although—they did indeed have the strength and confidence to back it up.
In the Douluo Continent today, if we're talking about the most elite Soul Master organization, the Sea God Pavilion of Shrek Academy is undoubtedly the top choice. With a history spanning ten thousand years, its foundation is unfathomable, and its powerful disciples are found all over the world. A single call to arms can summon countless followers.
Secondly, there is the Mingde Hall of the Sun Moon Empire. With its unparalleled soul tool technology, it once defeated the elite soul masters of the three great empires of the Douluo Continent with overwhelming superiority, shaking the world in one battle.
The third, and youngest and most mysterious, is the Body Sect, the guardian sect behind the Heavenly Soul Empire.
Lin Feng speculated that the appearance of the Body Sect in the world this time was very likely related to the Holy Spirit Cult, whose activities had become increasingly rampant recently.
Since joining forces with three of the Shrek Seven Devils to wipe out a stronghold of evil soul masters, Yan Shaozhe had revealed some information about the Holy Spirit Cult to him.
This evil soul master organization is deeply entrenched and unfathomable. The strength it has shown so far is merely the tip of the iceberg, yet it is enough to make the elders of the Sea God Pavilion feel like they have thorns in their backs.
Even under the worst-case scenario, this organization could become the fourth top-tier Soul Master organization after the Sea God Pavilion, the Mingde Hall, and the Body Sect.
"You'd only be wasting your talent in a place like Shrek Academy. The Body Sect is where you belong." Poison Undying said bluntly, leaving no room for argument.
"Alright then." Lin Feng thought for a moment. The Tang Clan had disbanded, and he really had nowhere to go at the moment, so he nodded. "Then I'll stay here with you for a while. However, I don't acknowledge this godfather."
He had his own plans. The Body Sect could stand at the pinnacle of the Soul Master world with its Body Martial Soul, so it must have some unique, secret techniques. Learning another skill was never a bad thing.
"As long as you obediently come back with me and don't run away, I'll do whatever you want with me." Poison Immortal waved his hand, and it was considered settled.
Immediately, his soul power surged, and his flight speed suddenly increased, as if he couldn't wait to return to the sect.
In Lin Feng's understanding, Soul Masters with non-flying Martial Souls, even if they cultivate to the Soul Saint level, can only levitate briefly. Only by reaching the Soul Douluo level can one levitate relatively freely.
The ability to fly at high speed for extended periods without the aid of wings requires at least the immense soul power of a Title Douluo level.
The group from the Body Sect, including Poison Immortal, did not have wings to assist their flight, clearly indicating that they all possessed strength comparable to a Title Douluo.
They flew for two days and two nights before finally slowing down and coming to a stop in a mountainous region with extremely rugged terrain.
"We're here! This is the home of us Spirit Masters!" Du Bu Si's voice carried a hint of joy at returning to his territory.
Looking around, Lin Feng saw only steep, solitary peaks all around, and a bottomless, precipitous valley beneath his feet. The terrain was so treacherous that it was a natural barrier that was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Without the cultivation level of a Title Douluo or the ability to fly powerfully, one probably wouldn't even be able to reach this area, let alone fly over and attack the mountain gate deep in the clouds.
His gaze pierced through layers of clouds and finally settled on the summit of the most majestic mountain in the distance.
At the mountaintop, the outline of a huge plaque is faintly visible, with three gilded characters engraved on it in vigorous strokes: "Body Sect".
"Senior, put me down. The mountain gate is right in front of us, and I want to climb it myself. I can't let my senior brothers and sisters see me being carried around like this the first thing they see." Lin Feng turned his head and said to Du Busi beside him.
His eyes were expectant, not out of bravado, but because he genuinely wanted to use this towering chasm to test the limits of his flight.
"Good! You have guts! With only the cultivation of a Soul King, you dare to enter the gates of my Body Sect. You truly deserve to be my adopted son whom I chose at first sight!" Upon hearing this, Poison Undying was not angry but delighted. His voice was like a bell, and his eyes were almost overflowing with admiration.
He had always admired this kind of sharpness, and now he found it even more appealing.
Before he finished speaking, the invisible soul force that had been enveloping Lin Feng instantly receded.
Lin Feng suddenly felt a lightness all over his body, the air behind him slightly distorted, and then a great light shone forth as the divine bird's fiery wings unfolded! The flames flowed and were dazzling, reflecting the surrounding clouds and mist in magnificent colors.
He held Tang Ya, who was still unconscious, firmly in his arms, his back slightly arched as he gathered his strength.
The next instant, the light wings suddenly slammed downwards!
"boom--!"
Crimson-gold flames erupted behind him, and he seemed to transform into a shooting star, hurtling straight toward the majestic mountain gate hidden atop the sea of clouds.
The speed of their start and the ferocity of their momentum had already surpassed those of the two Soul Douluo disciples with the lowest cultivation levels beside Poison Undying, causing a hint of surprise to flash across everyone's eyes.
"Senior, you'd better keep up! My name is Lin Feng—the 'Feng' of 'reaching the pinnacle'! I'm not called any kind of 'adopted son'!"
The sound was still ringing in his ears when Lin Feng's figure flew into the surging sea of clouds, leaving only a trail of flames that gradually dissipated.
"Good lad, are you trying to intimidate me to my face?!" Poisonous Undying looked up at the Flame Stream, not annoyed at all, but instead grinned and laughed, his eyes full of interest.
His body rippled slightly with a powerful, dark green soul force, and he stepped forward unhurriedly. He seemed leisurely, but in reality, he covered a hundred meters in an instant and quickly caught up with Lin Feng.
The other experts from the Body Sect also transformed into streams of light of various colors, closely following behind Du Busi, and flew towards the mountain gate deep in the clouds.
