Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King.

Chapter 45 Ascension Platform

After suppressing the evil thoughts deep within his heart, Nan Fusheng walked directly towards the cafeteria.

The free meals provided to the students in Class Zero have saved him a lot of money recently.

Eat, attend classes!

"We're going to the Spirit Pagoda today." Aside from when he was lecturing, Wu Changkong's words were always so concise.

Go to the Spirit Pagoda? What for? They haven't reached the point where they need souls yet.

Apart from Nan Fusheng, who understood the situation, the other five people had some doubts, but Wu Changkong did not intend to explain; he simply made the announcement.

Leaving the college during class time is a strange and superior feeling for students. All six students in Class Zero felt this to varying degrees.

As Wu Changkong walked, he said, "Starting today, you will have one day a week to enter the Spirit Ascension Platform of the Spirit Transmission Tower for cultivation. Cherish this opportunity. The academy specially allocated funds to secure this opportunity for you."

Gu Yue and Tang Wulin looked puzzled, while Nan Fusheng explained, "In the Spirit Transmission Tower of our Douluo Continent, only large cities have the possibility of having a Spirit Ascension Platform."

There are eighteen Spirit Ascension Platforms on the mainland; those are the best places for us Soul Masters to cultivate.

"The Spirit Ascension Platform was built by the Spirit Transfer Tower. It is a place for Soul Masters to train and improve their personal strength, and to experience the charm of the ancient Soul Master world."

I'm not entirely clear on the principles behind the Spirit Ascension Platform, but I've heard that over ten Title Douluos participated in its initial construction. Furthermore, it utilized a large number of top-tier researchers, for which the Spirit Pagoda paid a considerable price. Ultimately, the construction of the Spirit Ascension Platform was completed.

"When the Spirit Ascension Platform was first built, its main purpose was to allow the Spirit Transmission Tower to further research artificial spirits. The hope was that the Spirit Ascension Platform could be used to improve the level of artificial spirits, thereby gaining the ability to create more powerful spirits."

However, the experiment was only partially successful. While the Ascension Platform did help elevate the soul's level, the effect was not significant and remained highly uncertain.

"With such a large investment in the Spirit Transmission Tower, it certainly can't be wasted. After a series of developments, the Spirit Ascension Platform has become a unique place."

Simply put, it's a place that brings together the pinnacle of soul tools, soul masters, and the culmination of research efforts from researchers across the entire continent.

When a Soul Master enters the Spirit Ascension Platform, it's like entering another dimension. However, they are protected by the platform itself, so the danger is not great, but they can fight Soul Beasts inside and improve their combat experience.

Some exceptionally lucky Soul Masters can even refine their Soul Spirit within the Spirit Ascension Platform, achieving a spirit ascension effect. I don't know the specifics; these are just things I've heard about, and I've never actually been inside.

"How do you enhance your soul spirit?" Tang Wulin asked.

Nan Fusheng said, "It's very simple! Whether it's our soul spirit or the soul rings that we directly absorbed from soul beasts in the past, their power and evaluation are determined by the number of years the soul beast has cultivated."

Improving one's soul spirit means increasing its cultivation years. To be honest, our soul spirits are only at the ten-year level, so the chances of improvement are quite high. If we can cultivate in the Spirit Ascension Platform for a long time, the opportunity for improvement is still considerable.

However, it's said that the higher the level of the soul, the less likely it is to ascend on the Ascension Platform.

Nan Fusheng was also somewhat excited as he spoke, because to enter the Spirit Ascension Platform, one not only needed 500,000 Federal Credits, but also a certain status.

Federal currency is not the most important factor. There are only one thousand spots available for entry into the Primary Spirit Ascension Platform each month, and many of these spots are reserved by large families or powerful forces. Without sufficient influence, it is impossible to snatch one of these spots.

Xie Xie, standing to the side, said, "So, the academy really went all out this time! I reckon if Wei Xiaofeng knew we were actually able to enter the Spirit Ascension Platform to cultivate, he'd be kicking himself."

The Spirit Transmission Tower in Donghai City is far superior to the one in Aolai City where Nan Fusheng once lived. As one of the eighteen branch towers of the Spirit Transmission Tower organization, these eighteen large Spirit Transmission Towers are also known as the Eighteen Heavenly Pillars.

The Spirit Pagoda can be seen from a great distance. It has over a hundred floors and is more than four hundred meters tall. Even in the high-rise city of Donghai, it is a landmark building.

The base of the Spirit Pagoda is octagonal and occupies a very large area. Every ten stories, it narrows inward until it reaches the spire at the top.

Just by looking at its exterior, one can feel its magnificent and imposing presence.

The college had clearly made arrangements in advance; when they walked up the steps to the gate, the Dean of Students, Long Hengxu, was already waiting there.

Upon seeing Wu Changkong arrive with them, Long Hengxu quickly stepped forward to greet them, "Teacher Wu."

"Director Long." Wu Changkong greeted him simply, his face still expressionless.

Long Hengxu said, "Come with me."

Upon entering the first floor of the Spirit Pagoda, one is immediately struck by its magnificent interior decoration. The floor is paved with dark gold stone with dazzling natural patterns, and massive stone pillars support a dome that is tens of meters high. Even more breathtaking are the pillars and the exquisite colorful murals on the dome.

These murals are resplendent in gold, depicting landscapes and figures, seemingly recording a story.

Wu Changkong said, "The murals record the story of how the first Spirit Pagoda Master, a legendary Soul Master and the inventor of Soul Spirits, Spirit Ice Douluo, led human Soul Masters to fight against the Soul Beast Tide."

The murals here are only a part, representing all eighteen branch towers of the Spirit Pagoda, and can tell the complete story. The murals at the Spirit Pagoda headquarters depict the scene of Spirit Ice Douluo's battle against the strongest soul beast, Beast God Di Tian.

It was after that great battle that Spirit Ice Douluo disappeared and never appeared again. However, according to legend, Spirit Ice Douluo was the ultimate victor, because after that, the Beast God Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian also never appeared again.

As Nan Fusheng listened to Wu Changkong's story, he looked at the mural. In the beast tide, the enormous soul beasts exuded an extremely terrifying aura, and blocking their way was a huge city.

A figure hovered above the city, his eyes exceptionally bright. Several other figures floated around him.

There were stunningly beautiful women in white and green, and on his shoulder was a flower-like object resembling an ice flower. There was also a giant bear and a huge white insect. Surrounded by them, the young man was surrounded by strangely radiant soul rings.

Lingbing Douluo Huo Yuhao! No, he should be called Dai Yuhao now.

Nan Fusheng knew his story better than anyone else in this era, after all, he was disgusted when he finished reading Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect.

Despite carrying a deep-seated hatred, he ultimately became a lackey of the Tang family for the sake of so-called love, even though his mother was eventually resurrected.

But how to put it? Nan Fusheng personally finds this ending hard to accept. He just doesn't know if Dai Yuhao has successfully broken free from his father-in-law's chastity belt.

At this moment, Nan Fusheng noticed that Tang Wulin was staring at another figure next to Dai Yuhao.

"Dragon Butterfly Douluo Tang Wutong, wife of Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao. Look how beautiful Spirit Ice Douluo's wife is!"

It is said that he was also extremely powerful, possessing a powerful Martial Soul Fusion Skill with Spirit Ice Douluo, capable of merging into one and becoming an incredibly strong being. In that era, he was the most powerful. Xie Xie looked at the mural with admiration.

"Tang Wutong, that's quite similar to Wu Lin's name," Gu Yue said with a hint of peculiarity. "And have you noticed that Wu Lin seems to look a bit like that Tang Wutong? Especially her eyes."

Xie Xie said, "It doesn't look like it, does it? Dragon Butterfly Douluo's eyes and hair are pinkish-blue, while Wu Lin's are all black. How are they similar?"

Listening to their conversation, Nan Fusheng had a strange feeling. If they knew that Tang Wulin was the younger brother of Dragon Butterfly Douluo and the son of Sea God Tang San, would Gu Yue go berserk on the spot?

After all, Tang Shenwang deserves a lot of credit for how well the soul beasts have fared.
