I logged into the God panel.

I've finished reading the Twilight Holy Fist Manual and the Dawn Meditation Method.

"Going to the spirit world is really this troublesome?"

Lu Daosheng raised an eyebrow. According to the description in the secret manual, unless one is a transcendent being at the second level of the extraordinary realm, one needs to make numerous preparations to go to the spirit realm.

But I... don't seem to need to.

He had a premonition that, with the spirit realm mark engraved by the knight commander, he could reach the spirit realm at any time.

As for whether it was due to the branding or its own special characteristics?

That remains to be seen.

"The Stairway to Immortality..."

Lu Daosheng frowned.

According to the two secret texts, the extraordinary sequence has two different paths—apprentice and scholar—but their essence is the same.

Apprenticeship and scholarship are the first steps on the path to extraordinary success.

Fighters and priests belong to the second tier of the extraordinary... and so on.

The higher levels are not described in detail in the manual, but they can be roughly guessed.

"The old priest is a high priest, probably a third-tier figure, and the knight commander is probably one as well."

Lu Daosheng muttered to himself, "Am I now... on the first tier or the second tier?"

According to the Dawn Meditation Method, mental interference with reality already belongs to the second level, the level of [priests] and [priests].

But I don't know any magic or anything like that...

In other words, you've reached the required level, but your skill bar is empty.

"Let's go check out the spirit world first."

Lu Daosheng took a deep breath and muttered to himself:

"With 3 points of spiritual energy, I now have three slots for divine grace... I wonder if beings in the spirit realm can accept divine grace?"

As he spoke, he used his spiritual power to activate the spiritual imprint left by the knight commander, and following that mysterious connection, he pointed his finger.

"Tear!"

The gates to the spirit world were wide open.

The portal was filled with dazzling light and shadow, but one part was blurry and indistinct.

This time, however, Lu Daosheng did not enter with his physical body. Instead, he guided his spirit into the meditation space according to the methods recorded in the meditation manual.

Those who enter the spirit world are called spirit travelers; they can enter physically or spiritually.

Each has advantages and disadvantages.

My vision suddenly went dark, and then... light appeared.

It is the pure white glow overhead, the boundless starry sea beneath your feet, and the chaotic vortex of colors and ethereal, uncertain forms all around!

Lu Daosheng's spiritual body stood quietly at the edge of the spirit realm, and that soft, gentle murmur echoed in his ears once more.

A strong warmth emanated from the surrounding layers of chaotic vortexes.

So...so comfortable.

"The area I can perceive and control is larger than last time... Is it because my mental energy has surged?"

Lu Daosheng murmured. He could feel that he could control spirituality within a certain range. If the range was two hundred meters last time, it was about three hundred meters now.

The mental value is exactly 3.

"Secret texts and meditation methods say that there are usually very few spirit beings roaming the shallower areas of the spirit world, and even if there are, they are usually very weak..."

Lu Daosheng tried to sense the dense 'chaotic spirituality' around him... In fact, to him, this spirituality was not chaotic.

Very docile.

The thought just popped into my head.

A chaotic spirituality drifted silently in, floating before me. It was like a polymer of distorted colors, or a semi-transparent void and nothingness... Its exact shape was truly indescribable.

It seems to contain knowledge, and also seems to contain infinite energy.

Lu Daosheng recalled the description in the secret text: contact with rampant spiritual beings without being purified or soothed by divine power, or without divine favor or protection,

There is a very high probability that they will suffer a mental breakdown, or even be transformed into a monster from the spirit world!

Even those at the third or fourth level dare not easily come into contact with the rampant spirituality.

After hesitating for a moment, listening to the gentle murmur, Lu Daosheng finally reached out and gently touched the spiritual cluster.

It's like putting your hands into a warm hot spring on a cold winter's day.

The spiritual energy naturally seeped into Lu Daosheng's body, but was then expelled... To absorb spiritual energy, one must use secret martial arts or meditation.

He hasn't mastered the Twilight Holy Fist Manual yet.

"etc."

Lu Daosheng murmured to himself, his thoughts stirring the spiritual energy ball, causing it to attach to his fist. His spiritual energy flowed into it, as if this ball of spiritual energy had truly become an extension of his arm!

An excited look appeared on his face, and suddenly a bold idea came to him.

Lu Daosheng sensed all the chaotic spirituality within his control.

Then, wisps of spiritual energy slowly drifted over and attached themselves to him one by one.

Head, limbs, torso...

The frenzied spirituality extends and piles up outward, using the body as a template.

As the time goes,

The spirituality accumulated more and more, and the Lu Daosheng buried within it became increasingly blurred.

Three meters, five meters, ten meters!

He transformed into a ten-meter-tall giant, seemingly composed of pure spirituality.

It hasn't reached its limit yet.

It's far from reaching its limit.

After absorbing all the spiritual energy within the 300-meter radius, it moved on to the next area, attracting even more spiritual energy to surround itself.

Fifteen meters, twenty meters, thirty meters.

Lu Daosheng wanted to raise his hand, and the giant formed from the spiritual energy that had possessed him raised its hand; he wanted to open his mouth, and the giant opened its mouth.

It's like putting on a huge suit of armor that you can control like an arm.

Forty meters, fifty meters.

More and more spiritual beings gathered, cheering, rejoicing, and praising!

Weak spirit beings wandered by, and upon seeing this scene, they uttered inexplicable sounds in terror, and then prostrated themselves.

Lu Daosheng's "armor" is still piling up, still getting bigger, still expanding.

So warm.

…………

"Life's transformation... begins today."

In the training room converted from the basement, Zhang Youwei took a deep breath and carefully took out the purified spiritual energy.

Now, only the last two steps remain.

Absorb spirituality, travel to the spirit world, then merge with spirituality to complete the transformation of life!

At that time, I will be a [Fighter], and I will have stepped onto the second tier. Even if I join the church, I can directly become a knight!

A fighter's social status is very, very high.

"Secret Warrior, Wrathful Elephant."

This spirituality merges into the body.

Zhang Youwei struck a strange pose, his chest heaving like an elephant's roar.

Inside the training room, a faint airflow was drawn along with each breath, whipping up a gust of wind that seemed to collapse towards him.

The bones and muscles cracked, indicating that physical fitness was preparing for a leap forward.

The pre-arranged rituals were initiated, and the portal to the spirit world slowly opened.

Zhang Youwei stepped inside.

…………

"Are you really going?"

"Go ahead!"

"Won't this be bad?"

"What's there to be afraid of? Senior Sparrow is here!"

Tianjing Garden, detached villas.

Li Bohe said excitedly:

"That's the legendary spirit world! Let's go check it out beforehand; maybe we can even absorb some spiritual energy, making the test much easier!"

Lu Yu, standing to the side, remained somewhat uneasy. She had never heard of the existence of the spirit realm before. While the extraordinary was not a top secret to ordinary people,

However, most ordinary people only have a superficial understanding and don't know much about it.

Subconsciously, Lu Yu looked at another woman who was sitting on the sofa with a smile. She looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, with an oval face, wearing a light yellow dress, and was very beautiful.

"Senior Sister Que..." Lu Yu began, not knowing the senior's name, only that Bohe called her Senior Sister Que.

This senior student, Sparrow, was also brought by Mint. She said she was a senior student at White Elephant Academy and held a high position in the academy. She could lead them on a trip to the Spirit Realm.

Don't worry.

Senior Sister Que held a thick, black-covered book. "Although the spirit world is dangerous, we are only in the shallow area, so we will be fine."

She whispered the taboos:

"Once you arrive in the spirit world, do not touch anything. People like us are called 'spirit world travelers,' and we may encounter other spirit world travelers... There's no need to panic then; just communicate amicably. You might even meet an important person."

Even so, Lu Yu still nervously swallowed.

"Should I call my underlings over too?"

Li Bohe shook her head:

"No, Senior Sister Que said that he is too young. Without the protection of a great figure such as a high priest or martial artist, he could easily fall into madness."

"I see..." Lu Yu said with some regret.

"Get ready."

Senior Sister Que spoke in a serious tone and took out all the things she had prepared in advance.

"A compass can guide you to the spirit world and prevent you from getting lost; Purple Ginseng Grass can dispel weak, wandering spirits; and Xun Grass Candles can reduce the harm of delirium..."

In just a short while, Li Bohe's living room was filled with a large number of various items.

The senior student meticulously drew the spirit realm array, lit the candles, and then distributed the isolation earplugs to the two of them.

"Remember, stay close to me. If you encounter other spirit travelers, do not be rude."

Li Bohe and Lu Yu both nodded nervously.

Senior Sister Que scattered a handful of dark brown sand. The sand drifted in the wind without scattering, and the compass turned, emitting light.

A narrow, seemingly unstable, semi-transparent portal emerged with difficulty.

"Let's go." Senior Sister Que said in a deep voice. Li Bohe and Lu Yu held hands and followed nervously behind her, stepping inside.
