Just then a spirit token was requested and He Lian provided the black token he received at the reception, there were several tokens from yellow to red tokens, each token represented a spirit soul limit,
A yellow token represented that one only qualified for a hundred year spirit soul, a purple token places a limit at the thousand year spirit soul a black token had a limit of a ten thousand year spirit soul and a red token placed a token at a hundred thousand year spirit soul.
That was the limit of spirit souls obtainable there were no great beast spirit souls, to obtain this one needed to make a spirit contract with an actual great beast, as for divine soul rings, those were condensed by god level powergouses on breakthrough tona new level.
This was because there were no more million year soul beasts with the appearance of the Dragon divine realm, after the black token was scanned the system requested for authorization level and He Lian filled in Tang Army two star black rank,
The system scanned his badge for proof and then underwent processing, in the end it provided three available spirit souls at 2025 years old meeting either the light or fire elements,
The three were a 2025 years old blazing apricot cabbage, a 2025 year old Immortal Fire phoenix and lastly a 2025 year old golden fur lion Mastiff, without second thought He Lian selected the 2025 year old golden fur lion mastiff,
Not only was it a dual light and fire element spirit soul but it was a rare and powerful soul beast meaning that not only would it generate powerful spirit abilities but could help strengthen the host, as a tool soul master this was the greatest goft he can receive.
Beast soul masters naturally had strong bodies as their martial souls amplified them however tool soul masters normally had weaker bodies so if a spirit soul could help raise their body strength it was a great benefit,
The system then sends the spirit soul in check out as He Lisi comes out of the chamber he was in, He Lian says his goodbyes and the two return to the elevator and go back down,
As they return down He Lisi notices some of the people he found in the registration line were still on the line they head to a separate desk and He Lian requests for a check out, they request for his badge again and after confirming a wooden box is given to him, the box was made from purple green wood representing a thousand year spirit soul,
However instead of returning to the hotel, He Lian went to an internal reception and requests for a cultivation room, the reception didnt asks for his badge this time but simply asked for the conditions and He Lian replied a fire vein.
The receptionist then said that it would cost 25 contribution points and He Lian provided his badge for the transaction, after it was co formed the receptionist gave him another token except this one was red gold,
Tbey headed for the elevator once again and he selected the simulation environment, the computer requested for a token and he placed the token in it, suddenly the elevator descended over five floors underground before stopping on the magma simulation enviromment,
As theybwakked out there were several rooms filling the hall each door was fire red and at the top was a signal either it was lightingbor itbwas shut off, if it was lightning it meant someone was using the room not lit mental it was empty, and red meant the room was in recovery.
This was because sometimes someone can use the room for an extended period of time that the energy in it is exhausted so it needs time time to recover its energy before it can be used again,
They approached room 11 and he Lian placed the token af the entrance, sudenely the door hummed and the signal light turned green, a count down started for 30 minutes and the door opened, as they entered He Lisi was shocked to see that inside were just a few cushions and some heat from the red gold markings on the wall.
They entered and took their seats and the door closed, however as the door closed the red fire markings on the wall flared to life and the room shimmered, a wave of distortion passed through the room and sudenely they were in middle of an island surrounded by boiling magma, above them the sun was blazing with midday heat,
He Lian told He Lisi that they only have 2.5 hours for him to successfuly fuse with his spirit soul, He Lisi says that the outside time said 30 minutes and He Lian says that the environment had a five times time delay so 30 minutes outside is 2.5 hours on the inside.
He then produces the purple green box and a vast amount of life energy fills the surroundings, the lif energy was coming from the box itself, He Lian explains that the box is made from life rich wood so that te spirit soul can be sustained before he could absorb it.
After absorption the box must be returned to the sect as it's actually way too expensive, during fusion the life energy in the box can be freely absorbed until its completed, the sect would infuse the box with life energy again upon return.
As the bod is opened a red gold energy orb is released and He Lian guides He Lisi on how to form a spirit soul contract, however in the process He Lisi needs to conquer the spirit of the soul beast otherwise it would rebel against him and the contract would fail.
He Lisi followed the guidance and sudenely the orb fused into his body as the lion appeared in his sea of spirit, the Lion roared asserting its domination as it releases a wave of bright hot air to clog up the spirit sea,
He Lisi's spirit condensed and he stood there staring at the Lion, suddenly the Lion charged at him, surprisingly, instead of running away in terror he stood his ground the blood in his body boiled and a strange coldness spread the high him, a mysterious aura spread from his spirit filling the spirit sea with a golden aura,
Suddenly he opened his mouth and let loose a roar that was halfway between a tiger roar and dragon roar the oscillating roar arrived and impacted the lion spirit erasing it instantly, that was the end of the Lion's resistance, sudenely it fused with his body freely as the 3 meter long Golden Fur Lion Mastiff appeared in his sea led spirit, projection of the Jade sun sword appeared and sudenely a purple soul ring rose from the Lion and fused into the first red-gold sun on the blade closet to the sword handle.
Information flowed to his mind about the newly integrated soul ring, similarly the blood of the Lion mastiff entered his blood vessels and somehow vanished within, he felt his body become stronger instantly, the layer of muscle on his thin body increased that he now looked athletic, in his dantian the spiral developed more arms until it had a total of 5 arms but something even stranger happened,
As the spirit soul was ending its fusion suddenly a metal piece bore out of his left shoulder fusing into his body from the bones, this was a soul bone and even better it was an attached soul bone. This was one that fully integrated with a soul master and developed along with them,
It was the rarest kind of soul bone to and it appeared on him from a thousand year old soul beast. He sensed that the soul bone had an ability as well which was surprisingly a defensive ability, once triggered his body would get covered in a thick avatar of the Lion mastiff impervious to both physical and spirit attacks below his level.
Anyone or anything that exists within the Lion projection would be protected however it could only be used once every 24 hours so it had to be used sparingly. He sensed his forst soul skill and knew he would ot better during usage, his greatest gain though came from the sea of spirit, the golden mist that appeared when resisting the Lion pushed the boundaries of his spirit sea by 50 meters placing him at 150 meters which would also translate to 150 units of spiritual energy.
His soul power had also sky rocketed to reach rank 15 as a soul master, suddenly a voice woke him from his meditation, it was his teacher He Lian and when He Lisi opened his eyes he was told it was time as he realized the room had returned.
He says that he just fused with the spirit soul and nothing else but He Lian says that He Lisi finished fusning with the spirit soul over na hour ago and the rest of time he was in meditation.
He Lisi says that he has never meditated in his life and He Lian says that be doesnt know how to explain it He Lisi sudenely angered deep meditation so smoothly it seemed effortless, one must know that even He Lian takes an effort t enter such kind of meditation while He Lisi did so without any training.
While they discussed they left the room and returned upstairs leaving the building directly after dropping off the spirit soul container at the reception, but more shockingly was that after leaving the Tang sect they didn't return to the hotel but rather headed to the transportation hub.
There He Lian requested for travel to Douluo star, as the central star of the federation travel to this star wasn't so easy, people needed to undergo a being process before they obtain permission to travel to the parent star.
However He Lian was a member of Tang army so his request was streamlined and he gained approval in a few minutes, they were assigned to the next departing transportation vessel leaving for Douluo star in the next hour.
They headed straight forward the space ship where they were assigned to a VIP suite, in there they had douluo world pods which the two entered instantly, in there He Lian started teaching He Lisi about the world of soul masters along with a few tips on te tabg sect secret techniques.
He also got better acquainted with his martial soul as well as starting the journey on cultivating his sword intent but what surprised them was that after just an hour of guidance He Lisi already had started accumulating sword intent.
Everything was happening incredibly fast for him when it came to understanding concepts that otherwise should be complicated, it was like his mind was already aware of what he was trying to teach it.
It took five days to travel from Tiandou state Douluo star and all that time was spent in douluo world, normally people get disoriented for their first time in a virtual world but still He Lisi quickly acclimated to the place like he had spent all his life there,
His body on the other hand was doing something strange, while he was con acted to douluo world hos body was mining energy from the pod, thisnpod was signed to access the douluo world meaning it had a connection to the world.
Something within him piggybacked on that connection and provided him access to the source energy of Douluo world, although it was subtle he was slowly draining the divine realm's fairy energy into his body,
After they arrived on Douluo star He Lisi was shocked by the thick life energy on the planet, it was about ten times stronger than the life energy of Tiandou star, here his body absorbed energy about ten times as fast and if one looked closely there was a slight golden glow around his body but it wasnt easily perceptible during the day.
He Lian brought them straight to Tang sect headquarters of Douluo world which is also the main branch of Tang sect, it was located in Shrek City right next to Shrek academy. He Lisi had ling heard all about Shrek academy all his life.
There was a branch of the academy stationed on Tiandou and it was just as famous as the Tang sect and the students from the inner court of the acadmey demanded even more respect that the Tang army, these were the true powerhouses, it wa said that the weakest of them would be a seven ringed soul saint.
He Lisi had heard of the legendary Zhrek seven monsters, these were the chef heroes of Shrek academy, there were seven Sjrek seven devils each generation and to qualify for this title one needed to reach the god level first or acquire so many contributions the academy would have no other reward for them except title them as a Shrek seven devil.
It was said that one of the Shrek seven devils was on Tiandou star within the acadmey, he was currently at the god level but was expected to surpass that rank soon, He Lisi had never dreamed of becoming a Shrek devil he never even dreamed of looking at Shrek academy.
Now he was standing at the gates of not a branch of the acadmey but the original acadmey itself, in that moment he found himself with a new goal, he needed to get into this acadmey one way or another,
He turned his head to He Lian and before he could say anything He Lian said that he knows, he says that he had the same feeling the forst time he looked at the academy, with luck he managed to get in and he studied at the academy for a total of five years,
At te end of the fifth year which was just one year ago he could have joined tr inner court however he had responsibilities within the sect that wouldnt allow him extra time to attend the inner court of the acadmey so he chose the sect, he faces He Lisi and says that he too will get the chance to try out for the acadmey whether he goes through or not depends on himself.
