Douluo: This Legend of the Dragon King is not quite right

“That’s wonderful, Mr. Lu, this is a stroke of genius.” Leng Yaozhu stood up excitedly and agreed without hesitation. “Leave this matter to me. I will handle everything inside the Spirit Pagoda and make sure to create the safest and most stable environment for the seed’s implantation.”

However, a small hiccup occurred when discussing who should be the nominal leader and contributor to this "comprehensive upgrade technology of the Ascension Platform".

Lu Jun originally intended to give this opportunity to shine to Di Tian, ​​since the title of Beast God was prestigious enough.

Unexpectedly, his proposal was met with unanimous opposition, including from Di Tian himself.

"Hmph, I have no interest in these empty titles."

Di Tian crossed his arms, his face showing complete indifference.

"Moreover, do you think it's appropriate for a Beast God of a Soul Beast to propose an upgrade plan that concerns the very foundation of human Soul Masters? Even though humans and Soul Beasts have long since lived in peace... I'm afraid it will immediately attract countless suspicions and investigations."

Gu Yuena also shook her head gently, a faint smile in her purple eyes:
"This title belongs to you alone. You proposed the plan, and you also reclaimed and won back the core key—the seed of life."

"It is more legitimate and convincing for you to take on this responsibility."

Leng Yaozhu made the decision directly, her tone leaving no room for argument:

“Mr. Lu, there’s no need to refuse. Once this technology is made public, its creator will surely be remembered in history and occupy an important place in the entire history of Soul Masters.”

"This honor is well-deserved. Moreover, it is more in line with the internal procedures of the Spirit Pagoda and the outside world's perception that it should be proposed by you, the Spirit Transmission Envoy."

Faced with everyone's unanimous recommendation, Lu Jun could only helplessly touch his nose and accept it with a wry smile.

"Alright, alright, it seems I'm not going to be able to get rid of this genius label."

Taking advantage of the fact that the Tower Master of the Spirit Pagoda, Qian Gu Dongfeng, was away on official business, Leng Yaozhu, in her capacity as the Deputy Tower Master, quickly convened a meeting of the elders of the Spirit Pagoda headquarters.

In the solemn and dignified council hall, she explained in detail to the elders and deities present a major technical project called the comprehensive upgrade of the Shenglingtai ecological cycle system.

Her report was well-organized, highlighting how the technology would utilize a "new type of core energy" and a unique "energy circulation matrix" to greatly enhance the energy concentration and soul nurturing quality within the Ascension Platform, and explaining its promising symbiotic relationship with the Soul Master cultivation system.

Throughout the process, she cleverly packaged the technical principles into a mature soul-guided technology solution, while remaining completely silent about the true core secret of the "Douluo Plane Life Core."

The proposer and core contributor of this groundbreaking technology is unsurprisingly identified as—Spirit Transmission Envoy, Lu Jun.

This made Lu Jun, who was sitting in the audience, feel a little embarrassed. After all, strictly speaking, he had only put forward a concept and obtained the key. The actual implementation would largely depend on the power of the Douluo plane itself and the assistance of Harosa.

This honor made him feel quite ashamed.

However, the elders and devotees present did not think so.

As they looked at the detailed but polished technical specifications and listened to Leng Yaozhu's beautiful vision, smiles of satisfaction and appreciation appeared on their faces.

A very senior, white-haired retainer stroked his beard and smiled:

"Excellent! Truly, the younger generation is to be feared. At such a young age, Lu Chuanling has been able to put forward such an innovative idea. It is a blessing for our Spirit Pagoda and a boon for the soul masters of the continent!"

Another elder in charge of technical review nodded repeatedly:

"Thinking back to the last time Lu Chuanling was sitting here, he was dealing with the baseless rumors and accusations from the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy. In such a short time, he has already made such a huge contribution to our Spirit Pagoda and to all the Soul Masters in the world. Such a speed of growth and vision is truly astonishing!"

"Yes, if this succeeds, the name of Envoy Lu Chuanling will surely resound throughout the continent!"

Everyone praised him, their words filled with recognition and expectations for Lu Jun. Through this incident, Lu Jun, a Spirit Transmission Envoy who had previously not been heavily involved in specific affairs, truly solidified and elevated his position in everyone's eyes.

Despite his previous lapses in professional conduct, this substantial contribution is enough to offset everything.

Faced with a flood of praise and encouragement, Lu Jun could only stand up and humbly bow to the crowd:
"You flatter me, seniors. I have only offered some immature ideas. Their implementation will depend on the strong support of all the seniors in the tower and the overall planning of Deputy Tower Master Leng. I am unworthy of such praise." The meeting ended in a harmonious and hopeful atmosphere.

After the meeting, Lu Jun followed Leng Yaozhu and quietly left the council hall. He then contacted Harosa through special means.

Without alerting anyone, the three went straight to the core area of ​​the Spirit Ascension Platform, deep within the headquarters of the Spirit Transmission Tower, which was heavily guarded.

This is a huge, futuristic circular space.

Countless thick energy conduits, like the roots of a giant tree, extended from the surrounding walls and converged on a huge energy core device in the center that emitted a soft white light.

The air was filled with pure soul energy fluctuations and the faint yet vibrant life force of countless souls.

This is the heart of the entire Ascension Platform system, providing energy and rule support for all virtual battle spaces.

Harosa's figure coalesced within the gray aura. He surveyed his surroundings, sensing the immense soul power and spirituality gathered here, and nodded slightly.

"This place is rich in soul power and spiritual energy, making it an excellent place to carry the core of life."

"Then, let's begin." Lu Jun looked at Harosa, his expression solemn. "How should we cooperate?"

Harosa nodded without saying anything more.

He stretched out his hands, shrouded in gray aura, and began to slowly draw upon the primal power of the Douluo plane.

At the same time, he said to Lu Jun and Leng Yaozhu:

"Next, I will use my dimensional authority to create an independent and stable subspace here as a place for the nurturing of the core seed of life."

"This space will be closely connected to the energy core of the Ascension Platform, but it will also be independent of the outside world, and cannot be detected or interfered with by ordinary means."

"I need your help to stabilize the energy flow here and prevent the opening process from affecting the Ascension Platform."

Lu Jun and Leng Yaozhu exchanged a glance, both seeing the solemnity in each other's eyes.

"No problem, please."

Harosa nodded, a hint of seriousness flashing in his gray eyes.

He took a few steps forward, walked to the center of the area, and slowly closed his eyes.

The next moment, a vast, ancient, and seemingly co-existing will emanated from Harosa.

The gray aura of death surrounding him temporarily subsided, replaced by a faint, shimmering light full of vitality and the power of creation.

He slowly raised his hands, his ten fingers dancing as if playing invisible strings, drawing upon the omnipresent dimensional laws in the surrounding space.

Lu Jun and Leng Yaozhu held their breath and watched quietly from the side.

As Harosa guided them, the space in that area began to distort slightly, rippling like waves. Pure primordial energy from heaven and earth seemed to be summoned, converging from all directions and merging into that space.

On the ground, the cold metal floor gradually disappeared, replaced by soil that exuded a rich life force and seemed to be composed of the purest energy.

The boundaries of the space became blurred, and one could vaguely hear the babbling of a stream and feel the gentle breeze on one's face, as if a small, independent paradise was being carved out from this core of machinery and energy.

Harosa intends to use his power as the representative of the plane, combined with the vast energy foundation of the Spirit Tower's Ascension Platform, to create a cradle here that is most suitable for the growth of that seed of life core, and can maximize its effectiveness.

This is a monumental feat, perfectly fusing the power of nature with soul-guided technology, and a crucial first step in determining the success of the entire symbiotic cycle plan. (End of Chapter)
