Chapter 335 - 0335: Ten Thousand Spirits (Extra Update, Monthly Tickets Needed)
Fifth-order Legend!
This represents a qualitative change and sublimation for the Transcendents!
In this world, Dragon the First used his Fifth Level body to put an end to chaos and establish a feudal kingdom that lasted for a millennium.
Even in the Main World, Fifth Level Professionals are extremely rare. Each one has the potential to shake the Federation.
In terms of professional path, going from Fourth Level to Fifth Level is like crossing an insurmountable gap. It has baffled numerous Transcendents.
Even for Su Lu, he can glimpse the difficulty of the legend from the conditions given in the attribute column.
“Just looking at the requirements for rank promotion, from the Third Level to Fourth Level requires about 2,000 to 3,000 experience points, while Fifth Level requires 10,000, a more than three-fold increase. If you take into account the level requirement of the skills, the multiples will increase further. Finally, there are the requirements for the four basic attributes and the most dangerous soul transformation ritual… although other Legendary professions may not have the same requirements, the difficulty is roughly about the same.”
“From this, it can be guessed that the strength of a Legendary Professional is at least ten times greater than that of an ordinary Fourth Level Master?”
“It really is a sublimation… No wonder the Federation hardly cares about Fourth Level Masters but is extremely cautious about Fifth Level…”
Half a year later, Su Lu picked up the last pebble, absorbed the experience points, and threw it next to the lake.
Immediately after, he sighed, realizing that all the pebbles in the drained lake had been picked up by him.
He returned to the wooden shed next to the ruins and looked at the dense scratches on a wooden stake. After a careful count, there were more than two hundred in total.
“In more than half a year, I have gained nearly 15,000 experience points. Combined with previous savings, it’s already enough to upgrade Soul Trance to LV8.”
Actually, the collection of experience points wasn’t without difficulty.
In the first half of the time, he could gain experience by picking up stones, and the progress was pretty smooth.
But in the later stages, he had to spend a lot of time searching, trying out, and identifying each stone.
Moreover, Su Lu also took the opportunity to fully explore the Death God Ruins once, relying on the fearless nature of his Shadow Clone, he managed to acquire some experience points and extraordinary materials.
As for the Wind Wolves around the ruins?
They have either migrated or have been wiped out by him. Apart from some small gains in experience points, the only thing he regrets is that wolf meat really doesn’t taste good.
Under the moonlight.
Su Lu looked at the basic alchemy table in front of him, holding a vial full of dark red blood in his hand.
“The last purification only yielded this much, it really is a waste…”
The performance of the Wind Wolf King in the Spirit World is still fresh in his memory, so he dismembered the corpse and fully preserved the blood.
Using the power of the [Mystical Scholar], he made magical items from the wolf skin, wolf teeth, and other materials. Only the wolf blood was left in the bottle in his hand after multiple purifications.
“According to my speculation, and the information found in the ruins… This Wind Wolf King likely has the bloodline of the Spirit World. Its ancestors should be the soul-chasing hounds under Lady Moon—Eraguragus, the three-headed dog of the Underworld in many myths and legends.”
In fact, there is no Underworld in this world, only the Spirit World.
However, Lady Moon’s God’s Domain could perhaps be called the ‘Underworld’, the land of the Death God!
“It would fetch a high price, not only in this world but even more so in the Main World…”
Su Lu put the blood vial into his Greedy Gloves, cleaned up the alchemy table, and lay on the bed.
Through the cracks in the wood, he could still see the bright moonlight.
He closed his eyes, called up the attribute column, and his will swiftly moved:
[Consume 4,800 experience points… Soul Trance level raised to LV7!]
At this moment, Su Lu felt as though his spirit had broken through another shackle, and he vaguely perceived the mysteries of the world!
He sensed that above the third layer of the Dream Spirit World, there was a more vast heaven and earth, an indescribable level!
“A complete world only includes the Material Realm and the three levels of the Spirit World! Strictly speaking, the fourth level of the Spirit World has already deviated from the ‘definition’ and ‘scope’ of the world. This is the deepest mystery of the Spirit World!”
However, although Su Lu can now faintly probe the fourth level of the Spirit World, he is unable to cross the threshold.
“As expected… I must reach Skill Level 8 to breakthrough to the fourth level of the Spirit World, leveraging the power of qualitative change?”
“But… the effect of increasing the Mental Attribute with each level of Soul Trance has disappeared, is this the limit of a score of 10?”
With his inspiration flowing, Su Lu felt better than ever before and finally made up his mind:
[Spending 9,600 experience points… Soul Trance level has been upgraded to LV8!]
[Soul Trance LV8: Detect the fourth level of the Spirit World!]
The massive expenditure of experience points allowed Soul Trance to breakthrough successfully.
The additional effect of LV8 revealed itself; a simple sentence that seemed to contain an incredible power.
Almost unconsciously, Su Lu performed Soul Trance. His semi-materialized Spiritual Body, imprinted with various mystical runes, shot through the first Illusory Spirit Realm and second Mental Realm like a rocket, soaring endlessly in the Dream Spirit World.
He seemed to witness the changes in the universe, supernova explosions, and the evolution of black holes, the formation of many planets!
Boom!
Su Lu felt his mind explode.
The overwhelming power broke through the limit of the third level of the Spirit World, sending him into the fourth level!
‘Is this… the test of the fourth level of the Spirit World? If my mind can withstand the explosion, I’ll be fine. If not, I’ll die? Indeed, it’s simple and crude…’
What appeared before Su Lu was an indescribable, immensely vast and boundless space.
Darkness made up the majority of this space, much like the universe, filled with ‘celestial bodies’ shedding light and various kinds of undercurrents.
“Where I am…”
Su Lu looked back and saw a ‘yellow’ star.
But he knew that was not a star in the scientific sense, but a complete world composed of the Material Realm and the Spirit World!
In terms of size, it was no smaller than the concept of the universe from his previous life!
“Is each planet a universe world? And the fourth level of the Spirit world is a transfer station for these vast worlds?”
Just then, a ‘pull’ suddenly appeared.
“Su Lu looked in one direction, understanding that was where he came from, the location of the Main World!
“It’s quite far… Just because I can see it doesn’t mean I can reach it, moreover, I don’t know how many turbulences and traps are along the way!”
The information captured by his inspiration made Su Lu understood that the fourth level of the Spirit World was like the bottom of the ocean, filled with countless undercurrents carrying tremendous force.
‘Travelers’ could use the power of the undercurrents to quickly reach a certain world, but more likely they would be directly blasted to a desolate place and die without a trace!
“I can’t hold on any longer.”
Su Lu’s face changed, sensing a change in one of the undercurrents approaching him.
If he didn’t avoid it, he would definitely be swept away, to an unknown world or a desolate place!
“Return!”
He made a move, hid himself in the Dragon World behind him, and immediately felt a sense of safety envelop him in the Dream Spirit World.
“I feel safe in the Dream Spirit World?”
Su Lu couldn’t help but chuckle to himself, “The fourth level of the Spirit World is the transfer station of all realms, might as well call it the ‘Realm of All Spirits’…”
