Chapter 64 Re-entering the Spirit Ascension Platform, Exploring the Realm of the Spirit

"You can do anything in the Ascension Platform, but the core thing you need to do is survive. Strive to survive. The longer you survive, the more benefits you will gain in the process."

"Secondly, don't assume that it's absolutely safe inside and that you don't need to worry about your lives. Although it's just your brainwaves being connected, if you experience a huge shock, there's still a possibility that your brainwaves could be overwhelmed and become dangerous. So, if you feel that it's beyond your tolerance, immediately press the distress signal and leave the Ascension Platform, understand?"

"Understood," Tang Wulin and the other four quickly replied.

As for Gu You, he didn't care at all. With his current strength, he had no rivals in the primary Spirit Ascension Platform, unless he went deep into the Star Dou Great Forest of the Spirit Ascension Platform... He also planned to do that, to test whether the world inside his spiritual sea could accommodate soul beasts in the form of soul energy. If it could, then Gu You could declare to the world that his spiritual power would be the most powerful in the entire universe in the future.

The staff member nodded. "You'll experience the rest for yourselves inside. This is your first time here, so it might not be long, but it should leave a lasting impression. Children, be prepared. Remember, don't panic in any situation. Soul beasts aren't scary as long as you handle them properly."

After listening to the staff's explanation, the five teenagers were all eager to try it out. Tang Wulin, in particular, who was hearing about the Spirit Ascension Platform for the first time, was extremely excited.

Brainwave access? What would that feel like?

The staff pressed a button, and six metal cabinets slowly slid out from the side wall. These cabinets were horizontal and had a recess inside that was shaped like a human figure, making them look somewhat like coffins.

"Lie down inside."

The six men lay down inside as instructed, and the coldness of the metal made them even more focused.

One by one, suction cups emerged from the surroundings and quickly adhered to parts of their bodies, fitting perfectly.

"It's about to begin, so please get ready. Just relax your whole body. There might be some discomfort during the scan, but it will pass quickly."

These were the last words the six people heard from the staff. The six metal cabinets slowly slid into their original positions against the wall, and darkness enveloped them.

Gu You felt a strong tingling sensation coming from all four limbs and bones at the same time, as if something was constantly passing through his body. His soul power and bloodline were stimulated and generated fluctuations on their own, making him feel numb. The whole experience was much stronger than the first time he entered. This is the special point between good and bad quality machines.

This little bit of pain didn't have much of an impact on Gu You; in fact, it made him feel a bit drowsy.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu You suddenly felt his body jolt violently. When he subconsciously woke up from his semi-conscious state, he was shocked to find that his surroundings were now completely lit.

The metal box was gone, and the original tingling sensation had completely disappeared. Only on the back of his hand was there a metal instrument-like object with a bright red button on it.

distress signal device.

The rich vitality of life made Gu You feel very comfortable; it was pristine, pure, and without any impurities.

As humanity has developed, primeval forests like these have become increasingly rare in the Federation due to continuous logging. It is said that the once largest forest on the continent, the Starry Sky Forest, now has less than one percent of its original size.

Around him were rows of large trees, and in front of him was a large area of ​​shrubs; there was no path at all.

But a great man once said;

If you walk on it a lot, it will become a road.

Gu You strictly followed this principle, releasing his martial spirit and using his dragon claw to clear the way!

……

The Spirit Transmission Tower, Primary Spirit Ascension Platform, Zone 5.

"What is he doing?" Long Hengxu pointed at a screen and saw Tang Wulin sitting on the ground with his eyes closed, leaning against a tree trunk, enjoying himself. A slight twitch appeared at the corner of his mouth.

No matter how he looked at it, he could only think that the child was sleeping! What a rare opportunity to cultivate on the Spirit Ascension Platform, and he was sleeping?

Wu Changkong said, "He seems to be comprehending something. Don't forget, his martial soul is Blue Silver Grass. In the real world, there are very few Blue Silver Grasses that are so lush. He seems to be sensing something. Look, he is releasing his martial soul outward from his palm."

Long Hengxu nodded. He valued Gu You the most. This young genius of the Federation was able to fight against evil soul masters. Just how strong was he?

……

Gu You wasn't interested in upgrading his spirit ring. The energy of a low-level spirit upgrade platform was simply insufficient to sustain the upgrading of a ten-thousand-year spirit ring. Even if he could upgrade it by killing more spirit beasts, he didn't know how long it would take. The original text didn't explain the spirit upgrade platform in detail. Since it was divided into low, medium, and high levels, the spirit beast level should also continuously increase. However, whether it was a low-level or high-level spirit upgrade platform, they were all built around the same theme: the primeval Star Dou Great Forest.

The original Star Dou Great Forest is divided into inner, middle and deep zones, where the strength and age of the soul beasts in each zone are greatly enhanced.

In that case, Gu You has a guess: if you walk to the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest from the low-level Spirit Ascension Platform, could you encounter a 100,000-year-old ferocious beast?

Gu You jumped to the top of a tall ancient tree. It was all dense forest, and all directions were roughly the same. How the hell was it supposed to be divided into outer, middle and inner areas? There was no map, and Gu You didn't even know his location.

Depend on!

"This Spirit Pagoda is really something. Without a map, how would anyone know what kind of spirit beasts are there? If it were like a game, with marked locations showing where bosses are and what level of spirit beasts appear, that would be truly perfect." Gu You complained, gesturing towards the sky.

Not only were the staff outside stunned, but even Wu Changkong and Long Hengxu trembled slightly. This kid was like a piece of cake... No, wait.

A staff member coughed twice. "We will report the child's reaction as soon as possible and try our best to meet the requirements of every Soul Master at the Ascension Platform."

Long Hengxu smiled and said, "Then I must thank you."

……

Gu Yue strolled through the dense forest, her eyes somewhat dazed. The surrounding lush forest and fresh air gave her a feeling of being in another world.

It's so beautiful, I love this feeling! But then Gu Yuexin thought to herself, "It's all fake."

The Ascension Platform created by the Spirit Pagoda is truly a miracle!

She continued walking deeper into the forest. During her journey, she encountered several spirit beasts, but none of them were strong. Gu Yue did not kill them, but let them go, quietly enjoying the feeling of the jungle. This left Long Hengxu and the others watching from the outside completely confused about what Gu Yue was doing.

As Gu Yue was walking forward, suddenly, the bushes ahead rustled, and then a tall figure appeared in her field of vision.

It was a giant bear, about three meters tall, covered in brownish-yellow fur, with enormous hands and bright yellow eyes.

Upon seeing Gu Yue, it let out a roar and pounced on her like lightning...
