Although he had neglected his cultivation for a month, Chen Hao's spatial abilities were still progressing steadily, and he was about to break through the high-level threshold.

More importantly—the Sun-Eating Spider Spirit has finally reached the critical point of advancement!

【Contracted Beast: Sun-Eating Spider Spirit】

[Life Level: Warrior Level - Advanced Stage (100%)]

[Status: Upgradeable]

Please select the advanced option:

[1. Self-Advanced: 30% success rate. Success will inevitably awaken domain-specific supernatural abilities.]

[2. Advanced Soul Fusion Breakthrough: Success rate 30%-100%. The quality of the soul directly affects the success rate and the strength of the domain talent.]

[3. Advanced Spiritual Material Assisted Breakthrough: Success rate 30%-100%. Success will inevitably awaken a spiritual talent; the quality of the talent depends on the quality of the spirit.]

[4. Advanced Extraordinary Bone Breakthrough: Success rate 30%-100%. Success will always awaken a battle aura attribute enhancement; the effect depends on the quality of the extraordinary bone.]

Chen Hao stared at the options panel for a long time, his brows furrowing slightly.

As expected, it was ultimately an experimental product with limited potential; the initial success rate of all four methods was no more than 30%.

Even with good talent, one still needs external support to advance.

"We need to get a high-quality battle spirit with compatible attributes... that's going to be another huge expense."

He sighed softly.

These past few days, he had been pondering how to allocate the 14 billion yuan he had on hand. It would be more than enough to buy a light-type soul seed, but if he wanted to buy a top-grade soul seed, he estimated that it would cost at least 1 billion yuan.

The light-type soul seed is extremely valuable to him.

Both his personal cultivation and the auxiliary abilities of his contracted beasts will be greatly enhanced. His light-elemental abilities already have multiple buffs stacked up; if he were to add a compatible soul seed, his combat power would increase by at least 30%!
But then, he encountered another, even more pressing matter—

Galaxy Magic Weapon.

After advancing to the advanced level, he clearly felt a significant drop in cultivation efficiency. The nebula magic weapon he had bought from Old Man Bao was no longer sufficient and was completely ineffective against star-river level star systems.

This is why he has devoted most of his energy to cultivating the spatial system during this period—the spatial system has not yet reached the advanced level, so it does not rely on the Star River Magic Artifact.

But once the spatial system breaks through... then this nebula magic weapon will be completely useless.

The Star River Magic Artifact must be prepared in advance.

This is the "core equipment" for a mage to truly enter the high-level system. Without the Star River Magic Artifact, no matter how good one's aptitude is, the cultivation speed will be severely suppressed, and it may take five or ten years to reach the third level of the high-level system.

only--

Nebula artifacts are already rare treasures, let alone galaxy artifacts.

That is a symbol of the heritage of many high-ranking families, and they would never sell it easily.

In the general market, the goods are either defective or overpriced fakes; truly good items only appear at high-end auctions, where they are always fiercely contested by major players.

Chen Hao knew very well that he couldn't solve this problem by himself.

and so--

He dialed the phone number of Mingzhu Academy and frankly told Dean Xiao about his cultivation bottleneck and lack of equipment.

As my nominal mentor, I should do my part when necessary.

Having made a living for decades, Chen Hao possesses considerable strength, resources, and connections; any amount he could casually offer would be crucial for breaking through his current predicament.

Sure enough, in just two days, Dean Xiao transferred a mid-to-high-grade Star River Magic Artifact from the capital. It was genuine, with stable star power flow, enough to support his cultivation and advancement for the next few years.

The cost is not low either.

A full billion yuan, not a penny less.

This is the price of growth.

……

As a result, the plan for the Light-type Soul Seed has to be put on hold again.

Although the Star River Magic Artifact is expensive, it is the most urgent matter; as for the Light-type Soul Seed, we still need to wait for the opportunity to choose the most suitable top-quality one, and there is no need to rush.

Now I only have 400 million left...

"Then I'll get you a copy of Battle Soul first."

Chen Hao looked down at the Sun-Eating Spider Spirit, which was curled up and slumbering at the edge of the spiritual world.

Its body was covered by a golden-orange exoskeleton, its eight limbs were sharp, and its eyes were burning. Although its eyes were not open, one could already sense the throbbing deep within its bloodline that was about to awaken.

It is eager to advance.

"If you were to reach the leadership level, the overall boost to my career would be considerable."

Chen Hao murmured.

Once it reaches the level of Dominator, its control over the light element will be further enhanced, especially for beings like the Sun-Eating Spider Spirit, which possess the talent of "Elemental Soul Body" and can already form a magical resonance with the Summoner.

If he successfully awakens an extremely powerful domain ability, then his light-based abilities will truly be invincible.

With that in mind, Chen Hao no longer hesitated.

After wandering around the Tokyo Magic Market for several days, he finally found a battle spirit that was highly compatible with the attributes of the Sun-Eating Spider Spirit.

[Commander-level Magic Crystal Monster]

A type of elemental monster that grows in light elemental magic stone mines. Unlike ordinary light attribute creatures, crystal monsters possess mineral spirit bodies and have extremely high elemental affinity. Their corpses are usually used to create soul seeds or spirit seeds, making them extremely precious.

It's incredibly lucky to have obtained the essence of such a creature.

The price was 3.6 million. This almost exhausted all of Chen Hao's remaining magical funds.

But Chen Hao knew that the money was well spent.

As night fell, he returned to his temporary residence, a high-standard training room rented by the Tokyo Magic Association.

The Sun-Eating Spider Spirit lay quietly in the center of the formation, already at the critical stage before its advancement.

"Begin soul fusion," Chen Hao calmly uttered.

A vast stream of light cascaded down like a waterfall, causing the eight limbs of the Sun-Eating Spider Spirit to tremble slightly. Its golden-orange outer shell gradually shone with a platinum luster, like metal scorched by the blazing sun, radiating a hot and dazzling aura.

Chen Hao stood at the edge of the magic array, his mental energy surging in like a tide, firmly locking onto the fusion process of the battle spirit and the Sun-Eating Spider Spirit. Intense fluctuations of light elements filled the air, and the magic array in the training room shone brightly, resembling a small sun suspended in the center.

The essence of the Crystal Monster Battle Soul was completely decomposed under the wash of the light stream, turning into countless tiny white-gold light spots, which surrounded the Sun Devouring Spider Spirit like stars.

These specks of light slowly seeped into its carapace, merging into its blood and soul. The Sun-Eating Spider Spirit's eyes suddenly snapped open, two blazing golden flames igniting in its pupils, carrying a hint of wildness and longing.

"Hold on!" Chen Hao shouted in a low voice, fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. Although the success rate of high-level soul fusion breakthrough was enhanced by the quality of the battle soul, there was still a risk. He didn't want the contracted beast he had finally accepted to just die like that.

The platinum-gold runes within the magic circle grew increasingly dense, gradually outlining an intricate and magnificent battle armor pattern on the carapace of the Sun-Eating Spider Spirit. The battle armor shimmered with light, each pattern seemingly containing the ultimate mysteries of the light element.

The body of the Sun-Eating Spider Spirit began to swell, its eight limbs became longer and sharper, and the luster on its carapace completely transitioned from golden orange to white gold, exuding a commanding aura.

Suddenly, a violent energy surge erupted from the Sun-Eating Spider Spirit's body, causing the magic array to tremble violently. The concentration of light elements in the cultivation room instantly soared, and the protective runes on the walls began to flicker, as if they were under immense pressure.

Just then, the Sun-Eating Spider Spirit let out a sharp screech, the sound piercing through the soul and reaching Chen Hao's mental world. Its body suddenly levitated, and a halo of white-gold light condensed around it, spreading out like a solar corona.

A phantom realm faintly emerged from the halo, within which light flowed like a tide, and countless tiny crystal particles could be vaguely seen floating within, refracting dazzling light.

"Domain Divine Power!" Chen Hao was shocked, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

[Congratulations, host! Your contracted beast has successfully advanced!]

[The Sun-Eating Spider Spirit has completed its advancement!]

• New addition: Light Soul Domain

The domain possesses characteristics such as sensory suppression, mental slowing, and purification.

• New addition: Mind control

Tsk tsk tsk, it seems the Sun-Eating Spider Spirit has activated its second attribute, a mental one.

Little Flame Princess represents fire and space, while Spider Spirit represents light and heart.

These elemental spirits all have a secondary attribute to some extent, which makes up for the shortcomings of having only one attribute.

"Possession!" Chen Hao shouted, his mental power merging with the Sun-Eating Spider Spirit's, completing the fusion instantly.

The next instant, it was as if a blazing sun exploded behind him, its radiance cascading in all directions like a waterfall!

It was a spider-shaped spirit, its entire body composed of shimmering golden light threads, with six rings of light patterns appearing on its back, each ring rotating slightly, like a god of light.

Chen Hao's body changed in an instant. Spider-shaped wings of light appeared on his back, his skin was covered by a pale golden crystallized armor, and a deep light flowed in his eyes.

It was not simply a light element, but more like a spiritual radiance, sacred and clear, so intense that one dared not look directly at it!

"This is the possession form of a Commander-level Spider Spirit..." Chen Hao murmured, raising his hand and clenching it, and a Light Soul Holy Blade formed from the entanglement of light and spirit condensed in his palm!
"Give it a try—"

With his new ability, Chen Hao immediately became interested.

Before long, they arrived at Naval Battle City. Today was a minor tide, and the front line was in districts 1-10, so they didn't have much to do, and the fighting wasn't intense.

Arriving at the front line, his figure flashed, and he shot out like a beam of light, instantly cutting through hundreds of meters of the battlefield. On the building, a sawtooth green monster that was about to launch a sneak attack was directly pierced through by a single slash before it could react!
"Crack!"

The jagged green monster seemed to be sliced ​​open by light, its entire body splitting in two before it could even react.

Where he landed, a ten-meter-long crack of light remained on the ground, still burning, as if it were a mark left by divine punishment.

Not bad, much more fun than using a greatsword, magic is still the best.

"Radiant Soul Domain!"

Centered on Chen Hao, an invisible light domain rippled outwards, spreading across the battlefield like a thin mist. The sea monsters that stepped into it became sluggish, their senses confused, and their heads trembled slightly, as if their minds were disturbed!
“Sensory suppression…mental sluggishness…and the backlash from purification.”

Chen Hao slowly raised his eyes, his wings of light trembled slightly, and in an instant, "marks of light" appeared at the edge of the entire Light Soul Domain.

Those marks fell automatically into the enemy ranks, each one like a brand that locked onto their fate.

【Radiant Soul Domain - Soul Imprint Blaze】!
boom! boom! boom!
A dozen or so ferocious shark demons exploded directly within the domain, as if light had scorched their souls from within.

This scene left the mages stationed in the area dumbfounded. These were all general-level demons, yet they were killed so easily!
After a brief trial, Chen Hao left immediately without making a big fuss.

It's best to avoid using the powers of demons in front of people.

After trying it out, he discovered that he could log out of his armor and greatsword.

First, there's the light elemental transformation blade, whose power far surpasses that of a greatsword, and it's extremely convenient to use with almost no consumption.

Secondly, there are the Light Armor and Light Shield!
With the light element control of a commander-level spider spirit, there's no need to deliberately cast spells; the light defense it casually erects is comparable to his heavy armor, only consuming more energy.

The armor was what Chen Hao used to enhance his normal defense. Now that magic can replace it, it will naturally be phased out unless a more powerful material is found in the future.

Currently, the only items that are still usable are the Flying Umbrella and the Mountain Shattering Technique.

……

"Everyone, assemble in the hall, the instructor has arrived."

"Roger that!"

In the hotel lobby, all five National Academy mentors were present, and the faces of the group members were filled with anticipation, as today was the day for distributing resources.

Aside from Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan.

“It seems none of you have been slacking off; everyone has already reached the advanced level. Not bad,” Feng Li said first.

Upon hearing this, several ordinary team members, including Zhao Manyan, tensed up. It was time to decide whether to stay or leave.

Sure enough, Feng Li then said, "But rules are rules. The National Team has always been about survival of the fittest. The National Hall team members are on their way and will be playing an elimination match with you this afternoon."

Suddenly, the sense of crisis in their hearts intensified.

"Mentor, who is the new team member?" Chen Hao asked. He had heard Mo Fan mention earlier that Mu Ningxue had made it into the National Hall and performed exceptionally well. Logically speaking, no one in the National Hall should be able to match her at this time.

“Lu Yilin, a high-level Light-type, has met the overall requirements for being a substitute in the team,” Song He replied succinctly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Fan's face darkened, and he questioned, "What about Mu Ningxue? Hasn't she also broken through to the advanced level? And she ranked first in the national pavilion's performance, so why should Lu Yilin replace her?"

Clearly, he and Mu Ningxue had not lost contact during this time.

Feng Li's face turned cold, and his tone became impatient: "This is a decision made by the National Museum. If you have any objections, you are welcome to file a complaint with the Oriental Pearl Magic Association."

"You are the instructors of the National Team. How can you shirk responsibility when your students are treated unfairly?" Mo Fan gritted his teeth, relentlessly pressing the issue, clearly enraged.

"You brat, how dare you talk to your instructor like that? Who gives you the right to tell us what to do? Mu Ningxue's background is tainted, so she can't participate in the National Championships," the tall, thin instructor said with a dark face.

"Since that's the case, then I won't fight either. I also have a stain on my record; my spot in the magic high school was obtained through my dad selling the house and asking Mu He for help." In a moment of impulsiveness, Mo Fan made the same decision as in the original story.
