The Legend of the Dragon King Chapter 1256 - News and Plans

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was particularly scary. He had only felt such a sensation before from the Heartless Douluo and the Amorous Douluo. It seemed like Tang Wulin had merged with his surroundings better than the two Douluos. It meant that his understanding of the worlds order and secrets was even deeper.

For a young man in his twenties to understand the secrets of the entire plane, how was it possible?

Of course, Tang Wulin could not do it. In truth, he had no need to do so. He was favored by the lord of the plane. Hence, he had achieved such ranks without having to attain enlightenment first. It was his most powerful attribute.

Li Yunzhe took a deep breath, sobered up and stood guard over Tang Wulin. Although he did not know what Tang Wulin was looking for, he believed that a person with such a spiritual cultivation base could not have the strength of seven rings only. It was no wonder he was able to become the current Sect Master.

It was intimidating to think that he had achieved such a spiritual rank in his twenties. Li Yunzhe had never come across such an achievement.

When he sensed Tang Wulins Spirit Domain, he was more amazed than when he learned about him being the Tang Sects Sect Master and the Sea God Pavilions Pavilion Master.

After all, in the soul masters realm, strength was the absolute measure of a person.

Tang Wulin spread forth his spiritual power, and he could sense the entire hotel. Then, he quickly disseminated his power far away. He sensed everything in the surroundings as he searched for the familiar auras.

He believed they were his biological parents. Even though it had been a decade, he should be able to find them still. The hotel was very near to the Spirit Wave Citys Spirit Pagoda. If his parents were inside the Spirit Pagoda Branch, he would definitely be able to sense them.

Time passed. When his spiritual power had covered an area of ten kilometers in diameter, Tang Wulin faced a bottleneck. It was the limit of the range of his spiritual power. A search of this large an area strained his brain and sea of spirit. He could not maintain the state for too long.

None!

His parents auras could not be detected, nor did he pick up any feelings that were connected with his bloodline. Why was this happening?

Could it be that Teacher Mang Tian was wrong?

When Tang Wulin reopened his eyes, he was filled with exhaustion and a sense of helplessness.

If his parents were not in the Spirit Wave City, the chances of finding them on the entire continent would be the same as searching for a needle in a haystack.

The bigger issue was that he did not have the means to contact Mang Tian directly which meant that he could not obtain additional information. That was why Tang Wulin had to confirm with Mang Tian before he came here.

It seemed everything had been in vain. There were no sign of his parents! Tang Wulins emotions had been pent-up all this while.

You didnt find them? Li Yunzhe knew something was wrong from Tang Wulins expression.

Tang Wulin nodded and asked Li Yunzhe, Hall Master Li, do you know of any secret laboratories in the Spirit Pagoda? Are there any in the Spirit Wave City?

Secret laboratories? For weapons research? asked Li Yunzhe.

Tang Wulin replied, Im not sure, but I think its likely that theyre doing research on weapons.

Li Yunzhe said without hesitation, There is. I can be sure theres at least one such laboratory in the Spirit Wave City. Actually, the Tang Sect has also been looking for this laboratory. We infiltrated their ranks to find out what the Spirit Pagoda is up to. Apart from the Tang Sect, the Spirit Pagoda is the only other organization from whom the Dou Spirit Empire buys various kinds of resources. Also, because they control the spirit souls, theyre also held in high regard in the Dou Spirit Empire. Theyre not inferior to us in that regard. If its regarding soul masters, they have greater control over them compared to us.

So, wheres their secret laboratory? Do youve a clue? Tang Wulin got excited. Just because he was unable to locate it with his spiritual power did not mean that it did not exist. If there was such a secret place, it was highly probable that they had some kind of anti-spiritual detection facility in place.

Li Yunzhe replied, I can pretty much confirm that this secret lab is inside the Spirit Wave City. However, were not sure of its exact location. The Spirit Pagoda has kept its secret well-guarded. However, based on our deduction, the most probable locations for the lab are within the Spirit Pagoda, or below the Spirit Pagoda Branch. Those places are the safest.

Tang Wulin was hit with a sudden realization. If its underground, naturally, I wont be able to locate it with my spiritual powers. Hall Master Li, I dont think I should keep this from you. Im actually searching for my parents. When I was ten years old, my parents were abducted by some mysterious people. They were brought to the Dou Spirit Continent to conduct some research. They were only allowed to contact home occasionally. I only found out recently that theyre here. Most likely, theyre in the secret lab run by the Spirit Pagoda. Hence, before the negotiations commence, I want to rescue them first. This is a personal matter. Hence, I wont use the Tang Sects or the academys resources. Ill look for them with a few of my friends. However, I hope that you can assist us in terms of information.

He laid bare his objective for being there. He could not do without Li Yunzhes help in his search for his parents in a foreign land where he was a stranger.

After listening to Tang Wulins story, Li Yunzhe was stunned at first, but he quickly came back to his senses. He nodded slowly. I understand. I wasnt expecting this. Dont worry, Sect Master. Ill think of something. Actually, weve also been searching to infiltrate the secret lab. According to our intel, the lab is most probably doing research on special weapons equipment relating to soul masters. I dont know the details. But if its something the Spirit Pagoda puts a lot of effort into, its definitely something extraordinary. Ill contact my people and notify you as soon as Ive anything.

Ill leave it to you then. Tang Wulin sighed inwardly. It was a personal matter after all. The main reason Li Yunzhe agreed to help him was because of the Holy Spirit Douluo.

Li Yunzhe was very efficient. He had returned to Tang Wulins room at dusk.

We have a contact within the Spirit Pagoda. We can enter the Spirit Pagoda by disguising as him. Hes currently an executive officer. Were now positive theres a secret venue below the Spirit Pagoda Branch, but he doesnt have the clearance to enter that place. Hence, hes not sure what its like, but its highly possible that its the secret lab youre looking for.

Tang Wulins eyes brightened. Thats great.

Li Yunzhe continued. He has drawn a map. We know the approximate location of the entrance, but he doesnt have the clearance to go there. You can disguise yourself as him to infiltrate the Spirit Pagoda to locate that place. Needless to say, therell be a certain degree of risk.

Tang Wulin nodded, Hows the Spirit Pagodas strength?

Li Yunzhe replied, Very powerful. Because the Heaven Dou City is our territory, were still stronger than the Spirit Pagoda overall. However, theyre more secretive than us. Hence, we cant tell their true strength. From what I know, within the Spirit Pagodas headquarters in the Dou Spirit Empire, there are at least five experts of Title Douluo-rank and above, and more than two Hyper Douluos. Also, theyre under the protection of many soul master experts. Their internal defense system is also superb. Thats what the Spirit Pagoda is skilled at. Hence, if were discovered, therell be no way out.

Tang Wulin said, I understand. Lets plan this in detail. Well do our best to infiltrate the Spirit Pagodas headquarters. Please give me the information on this person. Ill learn to mimic him.

Alright!

Spirit Wave City. Top level of the Spirit Pagoda Branch.

Every level of the Spirit Pagoda was expansive. Amidst the spacious lobby, there was a large round table. Encircling the table sat the high-ranking officials of the Spirit Pagodas Dou Spirit Empire Branch.

The leader was an old man who looked to be in his sixties. He was neat looking and sat with his back straight. He had the natural talent of looking stern without actually being so.

There were six others. These seven were collectively called the seven great magnates of the Dou Spirit Empires Spirit Pagoda.

Branch Pagoda Master, what do you mean when you said the headquarters is sending someone important? Dont they trust us? Or are they here to supervise us during the upcoming war? Weve to, at least, appear neutral. We cant be too obvious. If the Federation cant control the Dou Spirit Empire, well be in trouble, said a middle-aged man who was seated on the right.
