The Spirit Ascension Platform of the Spirit Transfer Pagoda is not built on top of the towering pagoda, but is hidden deep underground!
Led by Long Hengxu and Wu Changkong, Fang Yang and the others entered a specially designed soul guide elevator.
As the elevator doors slowly closed, everyone clearly felt their bodies descending. The interior of the elevator flickered with a light blue soul guide halo, displaying the continuously decreasing depth value.
After a full three minutes, accompanied by a slight tremor, the elevator finally stopped steadily.
When the elevator doors opened again, a spacious hall came into view.
Dozens of Spirit Transfer Tower Staff were busy at their respective posts, and behind them were metal-structured passages.
Long Hengxu stepped forward, took out a special card, and handed it to one of the Spirit Transfer Tower Staff.
"Eastsea Academy, six-person group, applying for Primary Spirit Ascension Platform access permission."
The staff member swiped the card on the instrument, and a green light lit up.
"Permission confirmed and granted."
He made a gesture of invitation, "Please follow me."
Passing through the metal passage behind the hall, everyone was led to a circular room.
The room was still entirely metal-structured, with a circle of huge soul guide screens hanging on the walls.
They displayed real-time images of the Spirit Ascension Platform's interior: dense primeval jungles, rushing rivers, towering cliffs—every detail was lifelike.
"Everyone, pay attention!"
The staff member turned and spoke, his voice serious, "There are six slots in total for entering the Primary Spirit Ascension Platform. There is no time limit. When you encounter an unmanageable danger, immediately press the distress signal to return safely."
Below are the注意事项 (points to note):
"First, you can do anything, but the core thing to do is to survive. The longer you survive, the more benefits you will gain in the process."
"Second, do not think that it is absolutely safe inside and that you don't need to worry about your life. Although it is only your brainwaves connected, once you experience a situation of immense stimulation, there is still a possibility of danger due to the brainwaves being overly impacted."
"Therefore, once you feel an unmanageable danger, immediately press the distress signal to exit the Spirit Ascension Platform. Understood?"
"Understood," Fang Yang and the other five replied in unison.
The staff member nodded and pressed a button on the control panel.
Accompanied by the hum of machinery, six silver-gray metal pods slowly slid out from the wall.
These pods had a streamlined design, with human-shaped grooves inside and intricate soul guide patterns covering their surfaces.
"All of you, lie down inside."
Fang Yang and the other five lay down one by one. The coldness of the metal made their mental force even more focused.
Then, the staff member activated the Spirit Ascension Platform access device.
Fang Yang and the others only felt suckers attach to their bodies, and strange fluctuations came from all around the pods, making them feel numb all over. They quickly fell unconscious.
...
When Fang Yang regained consciousness, he was greeted by fresh air carrying the fragrance of earth.
He opened his eyes and found himself standing in an endless primeval forest.
The branches and leaves of towering ancient trees covered the sky, and their thick trunks required five or six people to encircle. The roars of unknown Spirit Beasts echoed in the silent forest from afar.
"Is this… the Star Dou Great Forest from ten thousand years ago?" Fang Yang looked up at this mysterious and ancient forest.
Sunlight filtered through layers of leaves, casting dappled light and shadow at his feet.
The纹路 (patterns) of every leaf, every wisp of breeze that brushed his cheek, felt incredibly real.
According to the data, the Primary Spirit Ascension Platform corresponds to the outer regions of the Star Dou Great Forest, where Spirit Beasts have a maximum cultivation of three thousand years, and common Spirit Beasts are ten-year or hundred-year Spirit Beasts.
The Intermediate Spirit Ascension Platform corresponds to the inner regions of the Star Dou Great Forest, where Spirit Beasts have a maximum cultivation of thirty thousand years, and common Spirit Beasts are hundred-year or thousand-year Spirit Beasts.
The High-grade Spirit Ascension Platform corresponds to the core regions of the Star Dou Great Forest, where common Spirit Beasts are thousand-year or ten-thousand-year Spirit Beasts. Access to this area is usually not open to the public.
Fang Yang cautiously explored forward, but stopped abruptly not long after.
Not far ahead, a group of Soft Bones Rabbits with snow-white fur and faint pink halos around them were leisurely munching on tender grass, numbering twenty to thirty.
"This is… a Soft Bones Rabbit pack?"
A hint of excitement flashed in Fang Yang's eyes, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly upward.
"Hehehe!"
In the room, the staff member stared at the screen and couldn't help but exclaim, "This kid is really lucky. He just came in and encountered a Soft Bones Rabbit pack. It's practically a welfare package delivered to his doorstep."
"That may not be the case..."
Wu Changkong watched the screen, a hint of deep meaning flashing in his emerald eyes.
No sooner had he spoken than Fang Yang on the screen had already made his move.
He suddenly ignited a cluster of strange flames in his hand.
A deep purple spirit ring appeared behind him, and the surrounding air twisted and warped due to the high temperature.
First Spirit Ability: "Fire Lotus Burst!"
With a low shout, an exquisite Fire Lotus spun and flew towards the Soft Bones Rabbit pack.
The Fire Lotus exploded with a roar the moment it touched the ground. A terrifying flame storm instantly swept across the entire clearing, completely engulfing the Soft Bones Rabbit pack.
However, just as the aftermath of the explosion had not yet dissipated, an anomaly suddenly occurred!
A white shadow shot out from the flames at an astonishing speed, directly attacking Fang Yang's back.
Relying on his terrifying mental force perception, Fang Yang instinctively dodged the blow by turning sideways.
"This is… a thousand-year Soft Bones Rabbit?"
Fang Yang's pupils contracted slightly as he stared at the Soft Bones Rabbit, which was noticeably larger.
Its crimson eyes gleamed with anger, and the pink halo around it was several times more intense than that of an ordinary Soft Bones Rabbit.
The next moment, a pink Charm light shot out from the rabbit's eyes.
"Charm!"
Fang Yang snorted coldly, his terrifying mental force forming an invisible barrier that completely isolated the Charm energy.
The staff member's eyes widened in surprise: "This… this kid's mental force can actually resist the Charm of a thousand-year Soft Bones Rabbit?"
Wu Changkong remained silent, but his gaze was even more intently fixed on the screen.
"A bit interesting."
Fang Yang chuckled, throwing out another strange flame from his hand.
Facing the terrifying power of the strange flame, this time the thousand-year Soft Bones Rabbit suddenly glowed with a brilliant golden light.
It actually used the legendary Paragon Golden Body!
"This…"
Fang Yang was momentarily stunned.
The abilities displayed by this thousand-year Soft Bones Rabbit—Teleportation, Charm, Golden Body—is this still an ordinary thousand-year Soft Bones Rabbit?
"Then let's try this!"
Fang Yang's eyes narrowed. The Xuan Huang Flame in his left hand appeared earthy yellow, as heavy as a mountain, while the Ten Thousand Beast Spirit Fire in his right hand appeared crimson red, with phantoms of ten thousand beasts.
The yellow and red flames gradually spun and fused in his palm, emitting heart-palpitating energy fluctuations.
"Paragon Golden Body!"
The thousand-year Soft Bones Rabbit's long ears stood up, and its hind leg muscles tensed, clearly sensing the threat.
"Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus!"
Fang Yang fiercely threw out the yellow and red Fire Lotus that had completed its Fusion in his hand.
The space through which the Fire Lotus passed showed subtle distortions, finally exploding with a roar in front of the thousand-year Soft Bones Rabbit.
"Boom!"
A deafening explosion echoed through the forest, and a destructive energy shockwave spread out in a ring shape, instantly turning the trees within a thousand-meter radius into ashes.
A small mushroom cloud rose from the center of the explosion!
