As soon as these words came out, they immediately drew envious gazes from everyone…
Xie Xie smacked his lips, "I thought the Spirit Pagoda was joking, but I didn't expect that they would really give out an Immortal Herb as a reward."
Yue Zhengyu also sighed, "Yeah, if it weren't for considering that Wulin is our brother, I would have challenged the final champion no matter what!"
Xu Xiaoyan asked in confusion, "What's the big deal about that? Who among us here hasn't eaten Immortal Herbs before?"
Yuanen Yehui nodded slightly, "Yes, it's because we've eaten them that Wulin only advanced four levels. Otherwise... he could have advanced even more!"
Immortal Herbs don't increase benefits the more you eat them; only during the first use can they exert their greatest effects!
Tang Wulin shrugged his shoulders, "Actually, I wasn't planning to use the Immortal Herb, but I thought about the fact that the last assessment to succeed as the next Sect Leader of Tang Sect was for me to breakthrough to Titled Douluo in three months!"
"Under normal circumstances, cultivation definitely wouldn't be enough, this Immortal Herb is really a lifesaver."
As long as my foundation is stabilized in the following cultivation...
Xu Lizhi muttered, "The Tang Sect's tests are really tricky, advancing four levels in three months, who else could do that?"
Ye Xinglan changed the subject, "Wulin, what are you planning to do next?"
Xie Xie joked, "Xiao Yan, do you even need to ask? He's definitely going to be with Gu Yue, otherwise, why would he put so much effort into participating in the martial arts tournament for marriage?"
Tang Wulin ignored the former and answered, "I'm planning to obtain my ninth soul ring from the Spirit Pagoda first, then head to Tang Sect!"
I can't keep Sect Master Zang and all the Hall Masters waiting too long!
Yue Zhengyu's eyes lit up, "Since we've got nothing else to do, let's go with you."
Tang Wulin nodded, "Of course, you can!"
After a pause, he looked at Gu Yue beside him with a gaze full of affection, "Gu Yue, do you want to come along?"
Gu Yue shook her head, "I won't go, just like you, I also need to prepare for taking over as the Spirit Pagoda's master!"
In her eyes, the position of Spirit Pagoda's master was more important than her own personal feelings!
A hint of disappointment flashed in Tang Wulin's eyes, "Is that so... that's really a pity."
After a brief reunion, they were about to part for a while again...
Gu Yue spoke softly to comfort him, "Once I've succeeded as the Spirit Pagoda's master, we will have plenty of time!"
...
Several days later, the Spirit Pagoda announced the official launch of the "Ten Thousand Beast Platform"!
This move directly led to a full house of members at the Spirit Pagoda headquarters and branches, attracting numerous Soul Masters...
One of the Spirit Pagoda Members, smiling, looked at the Soul Masters in front of him...
He explained, "Welcome to the Spirit Pagoda. This is our latest invention, the Ten Thousand Beast Platform. It offers a more realistic space than the Spirit Ascension Platform, with a more significant effect on enhancing Soul Masters. For the first use, it only costs one million federation coins!"
Having said this, he activated the machine of the Ten Thousand Beast Platform, and a high-tech light door emerged before their eyes...
The Soul Masters below instantly erupted, "Is this the Spirit Pagoda's new invention, the Ten Thousand Beast Platform? The sense of technology is completely a few levels above the Spirit Ascension Platform!!"
"Exactly, its effects must also be incomparable to those of the Spirit Ascension Platform!"
"This is amazing, the price of the Ten Thousand Beast Platform is only a bit higher than the Intermediate Spirit Ascension Platform, absolutely a top choice!"
"The Spirit Pagoda finally shows some conscience, not setting the price too high!"
"Stop the chatter, I want to experience the Ten Thousand Beast Platform right now. A mere one million federation coins, I've got plenty of money!"
Seeing this, a member of the Spirit Pagoda responded with an apologetic expression, "I'm sorry, dear guests. The use of the Ten Thousand Beast Platform requires an advance appointment. If you wish to be among the first batch of users, please sign up over there!"
Xingluo Empire!
Emperor Dai Yueyan's room!
He seemed to sense something and spoke softly, "Is that you, Yun'er? Come in."
As soon as he spoke, Dai Yun'er, dressed in a robe that concealed her exquisite figure, pushed open the door and entered...
Her Beautiful Eyes glanced at Dai Yueyan, who was deep in thought with his head bowed, and she asked in confusion, "Brother, I see your brow is furrowed. What is troubling you so much?"
The latter shook his head and sighed, "It's nothing, just some trivial matters of the empire giving me a headache!"
Dai Yun'er pursed her lips and walked behind Dai Yueyan, extending her delicate hand to slowly knead his shoulders…
"Brother, you have really changed a lot since our father passed away..."
Dai Yueyan's eyebrows lifted slightly, "Yun'er, why do I feel like you're acting a bit off today?"
The usual Dai Yun'er wouldn't be as gentle as she was now, let alone give him a shoulder massage!
Dai Yun'er pouted, "Not at all, I've always been like this, it's just that you haven't noticed."
After a pause, she added, "Is it because of the Holy Spirit Cult within the borders of the Xingluo Empire?"
Upon hearing this, Dai Yueyan did not deny it...
His expression became much more serious, "Indeed, the Holy Spirit Cult has now grown into a towering tree. Even if the empire exhausts all its strength, we cannot curb its rise!"
"But what truly worries me is not this. It's that the Holy Spirit Cult has been too peaceful lately, so peaceful that it leaves me restless!"
Dai Yun'er questioned, "Isn't that a good thing? Maybe the Holy Spirit Cult is becoming fearful of our Xingluo Empire!"
Over the past years, the Xingluo Empire had been committed to improving the overall strength of its military and diligently developing soul tools!
Now, although not comparable to the Douluo Federation, it was showing signs of catching up!
Dai Yueyan decisively denied her suggestion, "No, quite the opposite. The Holy Spirit Cult is definitely brewing a greater conspiracy! The near breach of the abyss in Soul Land, Yun'er, you should be aware of that. It's certainly related to the Holy Spirit Cult!"
"Despite being situated in Xingluo Land, it's as if... they could take control of the entire Xingluo Empire whenever they wish!"
"This feeling, it's like being choked, so uncomfortable!!"
Dai Yun'er didn't know how to comfort him and whispered softly, "Brother, relax a bit. There will surely be a way in the future!"
Dai Yueyan rested his head in her embrace, "I hope so... Alright, tell me your reason for coming. I don't believe you, Yun'er, came just to visit your brother."
Dai Yun'er blinked her Beautiful Eyes, "Hehe, brother, you really can't be fooled!"
"After you refused me last time, I thought about it carefully and still want to visit Soul Land. There are so many things there I haven't seen!"
Then, she looked at him with hope...
Just when she thought she'd be refused as usual...
Dai Yueyan calmly replied, "Alright!"
Dai Yun'er's face brightened, "Bro... brother, you… actually agreed?"
Dai Yueyan replied irritably, "Hm, what else can I do if I don't agree? Keep you in the imperial palace for a lifetime? If father was still alive, he surely wouldn't allow it either!"
