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

The Spirit Pagoda organization has a history of ten thousand years. Due to their importance to Soul Masters and their groundbreaking research into artificial Soul Spirits, their status has risen, spreading across three continents and becoming one of the most powerful forces.

Aolai City also has a branch of the Spirit Pagoda, located in the city center. It is a three-story tower-like building, which is the lowest level of the Spirit Pagoda branch. The Spirit Pagoda in medium-sized cities is seven stories high, and the Spirit Pagoda in large cities is as high as thirteen stories.

The Spirit Pagoda is located in the headquarters of Shrek City. After years of renovations, it has eighty-one floors and is known as the most magnificent building on the Douluo Continent.

The Spirit Transmission Tower that appeared before Nan Fusheng was only three stories high and was the largest building in Aolai City. Everyone knew its location, but very few people had actually entered it.

When Nan Fusheng arrived, the main gate of the Spirit Pagoda was already wide open, but there were hardly any people there. After all, this...

It's a place only Soul Masters would come to. In a small place like Aolai City, the number of Soul Masters is extremely limited.

The Spirit Pagoda is octagonal, with three stories and four sides. The interior space is very spacious, with the floor paved with marble bearing the Spirit Pagoda's mark. The hall is large, surrounded by a ring of doors leading to unknown destinations. In front is a counter-like area, behind which sits a Spirit Pagoda master dressed in a gray robe.

Upon seeing him, the spirit medium stood up, his gaze falling on Nan Fusheng. "Hello, young friend, what can I do for you?"

Nan Fusheng said, "Hello, Spirit Master, I'm here to buy a Soul Spirit. My Soul Power is already at level ten."

Upon hearing this, the spirit medium's enthusiasm immediately increased.

"Did you bring enough money?" the spirit medium asked.

Nan Fusheng: "I've brought enough."

The spirit medium asked, "Young friend, what level of spirit do you wish to purchase?"

Nan Fusheng: "Spirit Master, I want to purchase a random soul draw."

The spirit medium's enthusiasm immediately faded, and he frowned, saying, "A random spirit spirit might be drawn, possibly ten years old, or possibly a hundred years old. But the type is uncertain, and it's very likely the spirit spirit you draw won't be suitable for your martial soul. Some people choose this method to try their luck and save money. But I don't recommend it."

"I suggest you do this: directly choosing a suitable ten-year white spirit will be more helpful to you."

“Randomly selecting a soul may result in a hundred-year-old soul, but it may also result in a defective one. Child, you are still too young. Go home and discuss it with an adult before making a decision.”

Nan Fusheng shook his head: "I don't have a father, and my mother has some mental problems for some reasons. My family needs to keep some money to take care of her. Thirty thousand federal dollars is the limit my family can afford right now."

I can only try my luck; maybe heaven will be kind and give me a decent soul.

"What a sensible child." The spirit medium's expression softened as he listened to Nan Fusheng's words.

Chapter 11 Soul Parasite

The spirit medium nodded and said, "You're a really sensible child, much better than my brat. Normally, there's a fee for the spiritual power check before choosing a spirit, but I made the decision for you."

"The fee for the mental strength test will be waived for you."

Nan Fusheng was taken aback for a moment, then quickly said, "Thank you so much, thank you so much."

The spirit medium smiled and patted his head. "Come with me."

He led Nan Fusheng to a room that lacked the rustic charm of the outside and was instead filled with modern elements, with many instruments displayed there.

The spirit medium gestured for Nan Fusheng to sit in a metal chair and casually asked, "Do you know why we test mental strength?"

Although Nan Fusheng had some understanding of the situation, he still chose to shake his head.

Next, the Spirit Master explained to Nan Fusheng the importance of spiritual power and its levels: spiritual power is divided into six levels from low to high: Spiritual Origin Realm, Spiritual Connection Realm, Spiritual Sea Realm, Spiritual Abyss Realm, Spiritual Domain Realm, and the legendary Divine Origin Realm.

A metal helmet-like object fell from above, connected by metal arms, and covered Nan Fusheng's head.

"Don't be nervous, relax your whole body. You may feel slightly dizzy in a little while, that's normal. Just relax," the spirit medium instructed.

"it is good."

A slight buzzing sound rang out, and a soft white light began to illuminate the helmet. At the same time, Nan Fusheng felt a slight stimulation entering his brain.

The spirit master began to suppress his spiritual power and looked at a soul-guided screen beside him. The screen displayed…

The data started to fluctuate.

The values ​​fluctuated rapidly at first, but gradually stabilized after a while. A look of surprise appeared on the Spirit Master's face.

After a while, the data stopped rising and just fluctuated within a certain range.

The instruments are turned off, and the helmet is raised.

"All right."

“Excellent data.” The Spirit Master smiled and nodded at him. “You are the Soul Master with the best mental strength I have tested in recent years. Your mental strength value is seventy-two. Remember this data, and I will issue you a test report, which you can submit directly when you enter the Intermediate Soul Master Academy.”

Seeing Nan Fusheng's calm expression, the Spirit Master kindly explained, "The spiritual power of the Spirit Origin Realm ranges from one to one hundred. Below thirty is the initial stage of the Spirit Origin Realm, thirty to sixty is the intermediate stage, sixty to ninety is the advanced stage, and ninety to one hundred is the peak stage of the Spirit Origin Realm."

At such a young age, your spiritual power has already reached the advanced stage of the Spirit Origin Realm. Among all the Soul Masters I have tested, no one has a higher spiritual power than you.

"I'm already a level 28 Great Soul Master, and my spiritual power is only 87. Once you reach the high-level Spirit Origin Realm, fusing with a hundred-year-old yellow soul spirit shouldn't be a problem."

"Now it's up to your luck."

After leaving the room where mental strength was tested, he led Nan Fusheng directly to an adjacent room.

This room was much larger, containing a massive instrument three meters tall and six meters wide. Inside, one could see many spherical objects, each about a foot in diameter, emitting a faint glow. Each one was identical.

The spirit medium pointed to the two buttons in front of the instrument and said, "The green button starts, and the red button stops. After stopping, the spirit orb containing the spirit you randomly selected will roll out. You can begin once you're ready."

The quality of a soul will largely determine the strength of a soul master.

A powerful soul spirit, after fusion, can even help a soul master increase their soul power level. However, if the soul spirit is too weak, the soul skills it grants the soul master will also be weak. A soul master can only possess a maximum of nine soul skills in their lifetime, and those who can reach the ninth ring are extremely rare. Therefore, for low-level soul masters, every soul skill is extremely important.

Even Nan Fusheng is a little nervous now, after all, a good soul can save him from many detours.

Nan Fusheng pressed the green button.

Suddenly, a series of lights lit up inside the machine, illuminating the soul orbs with a faint halo.

There were at least a hundred soul orbs inside the machine, which began to slowly revolve around the track.

The Soul Orb's exterior completely isolates the soul within; nothing can be seen with the naked eye, leaving everything to fate.

Nan Fusheng closed his eyes and silently recited, "The most suitable soul for me is among those here." After repeating this seven times, an inspiration struck him: now was the time. His right hand finally pressed down heavily.

With a "bang," the rotation stopped, and a pure white soul sphere fell from the machine's exit, rolling into the metal box next to Nan Fusheng.

The spirit medium walked over, took out the soul orb, and handed it to him.

"Let's go out and see."

Upon entering the hall, the spirit medium brought out an oval-shaped instrument and handed it to Nan Fusheng.

"Press this button to turn on the instrument's light."

The light shines upon this soul orb, and your soul will hatch. The right to release your soul belongs to you.

Pressing the button, a soft yellow light fell, illuminating the Soul Orb. The Soul Orb itself also emitted a faint glow, and the originally sealed sphere gradually became transparent, making its interior vaguely visible.

Just then, the light emanating from the Soul Orb turned white, and a brighter ring of light flashed in the center of the Soul Orb, and the entire Soul Orb slowly opened from the center.

Upon seeing the white light appear, the spirit medium said from the side, "A ten-year-old soul spirit."

Nan Fusheng didn't say anything more, he just looked at this ten-year soul spirit, which, in his spiritual perception, was more suitable for him than the hundred-year soul spirit.

The white light began to recede, and the entire Soul Sphere fully opened, finally revealing the souls within to him.

Upon first seeing it, the spirit master's expression changed slightly.

Inside the pure white soul sphere, a small creature lay quietly.

It looked so tiny, only about two or three centimeters long, thinner than a child's finger, and its whole body was milky white.

Most people recognize this tiny creature because it is very common; it is a parasite.

The spirit medium stared blankly at the tiny insect, sighed softly, and said with a touch of bitterness, "When it rains, it pours. Child, your luck is truly..."

He actually knew the origin of the spirit before him. Artificial spirits also rely on the genes of spirit beasts, and because spirit beasts are gradually becoming extinct, their genes are constantly being lost. Therefore, the Spirit Pagoda...

Researchers have conducted numerous experiments. One such experiment involved extracting genes from non-spirit beast animals to attempt the creation of spirits, aiming to observe the resulting spirits' effects.

The experiment was successful, but it turned out that the spirits created from animal genes were pitifully weak and no one would buy them.

Without a doubt, this insect was the defective product he had mentioned before, and not just any ordinary defective product; it didn't even have a trace of a soul beast's genes.

This spirit was an unexpected creation; it was the last of all the possible spirits that could be extracted...

"Child, you should abandon this spirit. It's a near-failed spirit. Frankly, if you hadn't extracted it, it would have dissipated in the next few days. Although it appeared in spirit form, parasites... sigh..."

Out of compassion, the spirit medium couldn't help but speak up to remind the child in front of him.

"Thank you, Spirit Master, but I guess this is fate."

The spirit medium looked at the calm-faced child before him with complicated emotions. He must be feeling very sad inside, but he just didn't want to show it. What a strong child.

Chapter 12 The Role of Parasites

The gentle soul power within his body began to circulate under the guidance of his will, and an insect shimmering with a faint white halo slowly emerged from his palm.

Instinctively, the parasite immediately sensed the presence of the insect martial spirit and climbed along Nan Fusheng's finger, quickly reaching the insect martial spirit.

Suddenly, an anomaly occurred. The 'insect' martial soul transformed into a beam of white light and merged directly into the parasite's soul. A faint thought entered Nan Fusheng's mind—a feeling that was both familiar and fearful, yet also filled with dependence.

But then that thought vanished, replaced by another thought—Nan Fusheng's thought.

Nan Fusheng only felt that when his martial soul merged into the parasite soul, his consciousness emerged in its body, and he could control the parasite soul's actions at will, and even directly replace it.

In fact, Nan Fusheng did replace it. The parasite's spirit was too weak to resist, so Nan Fusheng replaced it easily.

At the same time, when replacing the "parasite soul", Nan Fusheng felt a slight increase in his mental power.
