A heavy look crossed Elder Xuan’s face as he activated all his soul power to protect everyone. The other Titled Douluo were not idle as they also used their pure soul power to form a barrier. After Elder Xuan cast his big barrier, the others cast smaller ones. They were now one step closer to protecting everyone.
These kids were the best soul masters of the next generation. Furthermore, Shrek Academy was ultimately still a school, not a sect. No matter what happened, the safety of their students took precedence. Bringing these kids back safely was more important than anything else!
Huo Yuhao was in a state of deep thought. He searched his memory. This phenomenon seemed similar to something he had seen before…
However, as he was inside the human-shaped soul tool, his friends could not see what he was up to. Everyone else was tense, and no one had the time to look at him.
The attractive energy appeared to be getting stronger. However, it was not destructive. The protective soul barrier Elder Xuan had unleashed separated them from the outside world. Everyone released their martial souls in preparation.
To them, the situation was too odd. Even Elder Xuan, someone with the cultivation of an Ultimate Douluo, could not resist it head-on. What terrifying power! While an Ultimate Douluo was not strong enough to move mountains or drain oceans, it would not be difficult for him to wreck an entire city!
And yet, he could not resist this shapeless gold and silver energy…
“Everyone, make your preparations!” Elder Xuan shouted. His body shook, and his nine soul rings shone brightly. His body started to expand, and he turned into a Godly Taotie Bull, sweeping everyone onto his back. The light he unleashed became brighter, and they were now being moved at a much slower speed. While they were still moving, it was no longer as quickly as before.
They continued to fly through the air, pulled by the attractive power. As they could not sense their surroundings, and their sight was blocked by the fog, everyone felt as if they were in the clouds…

After fifteen minutes, the scene before them began to clear up. They had emerged from the thick fog.
“This is…”
Everyone opened their eyes wide and looked in disbelief.
The scene before them was that shocking! None of them could have imagined it.
While they were in the thick fog, they all sensed danger around them. However, at this moment, they were shocked by the majestic water before them. All of their negative emotions from before were gone.
Before them was a wide lake. It was surrounded by mountains, and the water of the lake was so clear that one could see its bottom. Strangely, the water was gold and silver!
At the center of the lake was a round patch of gold. The intense golden light spread outward from the patch as if it were a reflection of the sun.
They could see a moon encircling it, sun and moon connected to one other. The moon gave off a silver light.
The vast lake was completely dominated by these two colors of gold and silver. The two-colored light spread outward non-stop. It crept across the mountain and spread far into the distance. How beautiful, how stunning!
Everyone looked dazedly at the scene before them, rather disbelieving. However, it was real. Furthermore, under the pull of the gold and silver light, they gradually approached the center of the lake.
“I know!” Huo Yuhao shouted. When he saw the shocking scene before his eyes, all the dots in his brain connected. He finally thought of where he had heard about this curious scene.
He said urgently, almost shouting, “Later, no matter what we encounter, if a voice asks you questions, you must reply truthfully! If you lie, you’ll be in mortal danger! Remember, remember, remember to speak the truth, especially when it comes to relationships! You must not lie!”
Right when he finished, they were already in the center of the lake, above the golden sun and the silver moon.
The golden sun and silver moon in the lake became extremely radiant. The radiant gold light and the bright silver light started to rise and engulf all of them, including Elder Xuan, who was still in his Godly Taotie Bull form!
This power was extremely unique. It appeared about them effortlessly. They could feel it, but they realized that they were unable to control it.
Elder Xuan’s Martial Soul True Body was forced back into his original shape by the two-colored light before they were all completely covered by it. When they could see other again, they were shocked to discover that they were all placed inside separate gold and silver bubbles, floating in mid-air.
Everyone was split apart, and no two people were together. Many of them were terrified. All they could remember were Huo Yuhao’s words.
When Huo Yuhao said that, he had used his spiritual power. His words were imprinted in all of their minds.
Before they could make any more observations, the gold and silver bubbles started to descend into the sun and moon in the center of the lake.
Wang Dong’er looked at Huo Yuhao, and he looked back at her. He nodded at her vigorously and gestured toward her. His meaning was clear: Don’t worry about me, do as I said!
Wang Dong’er nodded to show that she understood.
Had it been an ordinary person, they may already have collapsed when faced with such a change. However, the students of Shrek Academy were the top of their generation. In comparison, they were taking it all rather well. While they were shocked, surprised, and a bit terrified, they all seemed relatively stable.
There were loud plops as the gold and silver light that surrounded them dropped them into the lake.

When he fell into the lake, Huo Yuhao did not feel the gold-colored lake around him. Instead, heaven and earth spun around. At this moment, he recalled his source of information about this place.
He had first encountered records of this place from the Icefire Yin Yang Well in the Setting Sun Forest, where he had obtained the Poison Chapter from the ancestor of the Tang Sect, Tang San.
In the Poison Chapter, it stated that the Icefire Yin Yang Well was one of the Three Great Blessed Lands. It contained the power of Ultimate Ice and Ultimate Fire, and was extremely dangerous. However, it contained countless natural treasures as well. Any plant that grew there would grow ten times faster. Those who could enter it would benefit immensely.
When Huo Yuhao actually entered it, he was shocked by the many divine herbs and plants. Then, he was able to retrieve the Yearning Heartbroken Grass to save Wang Dong’er. However, he was also severely injured by the Blazing Sunspring and the Extreme Chill Icespring, and barely made it back alive.
According to Tang San’s records, the Three Great Blessed Lands were both dangerous and filled with treasures. He had to surmount countless dangers before he could enter the Icefire Yin Yang Well! If not for his abilities, which were barely enough, there was no way he could have entered.
The place before him was another of the Three Great Blessed Lands. It was ranked above the Icefire Yin Yang Well, and it was the top Blessed Land among the three.
This place was known as the Yin-Yang Love Querying Valley.
In the Poison Chapter, no one knew if the Three Great Blessed Lands were real or not. Tang San had only seen the Icefire Yin Yang Well. No one was sure if the Yin-Yang Love Querying Valley actually existed.
The Yin-Yang Love Querying Valley was the first among the Three Great Blessed Lands not because of its riches, but because of its danger. Furthermore, no one knew what kind of danger existed here. To benefit from it was exceedingly difficult.
Legend had it that in the God Realm, after the Goddess of Love was betrayed by her love, her grief made her insane, and she descended into the mortal world. Heaven and earth were inverted, and the sun and moon became a lake.
As the Goddess of Love was betrayed by her lover, she hated all those who betrayed their lovers. Hence, when these kinds of people entered the Sun Moon Lake of the Yin-Yang Love Querying Valley, it would enrage her, and she would seek to exterminate them.
Only those who were true to their lovers could leave this place alive and reap its rewards. All liars would be severely punished.
Huo Yuhao did not remember all this, because the Poison Chapter was extremely vague in its description. The most important line from it was, “The sun and moon form its lake, the earth shall ask about your love. Those who are true may take the risk, but those who show true love are invincible here.”
With such a blurry description, Huo Yuhao would not have been able to remember the short line from the Poison Chapter had he not seen the golden sun and silver moon. Even Tang San doubted the existence of the Yin-Yang Love Querying Valley. Hence, he only left one tip. Speak the truth, and be true to your love. Only then could one survive!
Other than that, there was no other information about it. Hence, while Huo Yuhao knew a bit more than the rest, this was the full extent of his knowledge.
Everything around him swirled like the celestial bodies in the sky. The scenes around him changed non-stop. Even though Huo Yuhao tried to shut his eyes, he still felt dizzy. It seemed to impact someone with stronger spiritual power more.
Finally, when he felt the dizziness subside, he opened his eyes once more.
He seemed to be in a transparent world. Everything around him was made from gold and silver crystals. He remained in his bubble, but he appeared to have landed on a round surface.
This surface was light-gold in color. It was about twenty meters wide, and near its edge were thirteen circles with a diameter of one meter. He had landed in one of these circles…
