The Wealthy Spirit Pagoda
"This is what we call them internally at the Spirit Pagoda." Leng Yaozhu explained with a smile, "We further subdivide each quality of Soul Power into nine small levels based on the Soul Spirit's age and cultivation. For example, a purple Soul Spirit with a cultivation between one thousand and two thousand years is a one-star purple Soul Spirit. Like your Soul Spirit, it's currently a three-star purple Soul Spirit."
"Oh, oh! I understand." Jing Shaoyu understood, then expanded on the idea, saying, "Wouldn't this make it easier to price these Soul Spirits?"
"Hehe, so clever!" Leng Yaozhu reached out and rubbed Jing Shaoyu's face, saying, "Alright, hurry up and absorb the Spirit Power."
"Okay!" Jing Shaoyu nodded, then immediately sat down next to the Light Holy Tiger's corpse, interlaced his hands, and guided the Spirit Power generated by the Light Holy Tiger to his side. Then, he closed his eyes and began to absorb this exceptionally large amount of Spirit Power.
The process of absorbing the Spirit Power went very smoothly, without any mishaps. With Leng Yaozhu, a Limit Douluo, watching over him, what could go wrong?
Jing Shaoyu opened his eyes, his eyes full of joy. Having a powerful mentor is just different! Easily increasing his Soul Ring's age by two thousand five hundred years, it's just so awesome! If he relied on himself, it would probably take at least two years to collect this two thousand five hundred years' worth of Spirit Power.
"Is the absorption finished?" Leng Yaozhu's voice came.
"Yes, it's done." Jing Shaoyu stood up and nodded in response.
"Good, let's continue." Leng Yaozhu smiled, "As far as I know, there's another fifty-thousand-year Soul Beast ahead, not far from here. Let's go quickly."
So, Leng Yaozhu took Jing Shaoyu's hand, and the master and disciple continued forward.
They advanced another eight or nine kilometers before encountering their second target Soul Beast, a fifty-thousand-year Diamond Mammoth, by a pond.
This Diamond Mammoth was lowering its head to drink water, completely unaware that its life was coming to an end.
Leng Yaozhu leaped gracefully, her jade feet lightly tapping in the void, golden flames enveloping her jade feet. Then, her delicate body descended, her flame-covered jade feet landing steadily on the Diamond Mammoth's back.
This landing, seemingly as light and ethereal as a falling leaf, was like a mountain pressing down on the Diamond Mammoth, making it unable to breathe and unable to mobilize the power within its body. It felt its body was extremely hot, its blood boiling, and its muscles burning.
Leng Yaozhu did an elegant somersault, landing smoothly on the ground. Without turning her head, she shouted, "A Yuan, come and absorb the Spirit Power!"
Jing Shaoyu quickly walked forward, and the Diamond Mammoth crashed to the ground. A black Soul Ring floated out of its corpse. Although this black Soul Ring was as black as ink, it was so bright and dazzling in Jing Shaoyu's eyes. Absorbing this Spirit Power Soul Ring would allow his Soul Ring's age to break through eight thousand years!
Excited! Still a smooth and safe absorption, Jing Shaoyu excitedly stood up and released his Soul Rings. The color of the two Soul Rings had turned deep purple, with a hint of black faintly visible.
"Not bad, not bad!" Leng Yaozhu clapped her hands with great satisfaction, saying, "In this way, when A Yuan reaches the fourth ring, he will have the opportunity to try for a black Soul Spirit. At that time, a Soul Ancestor with four Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings, I'm afraid, has never appeared in the history of the Federation! Keep it up, A Yuan!"
"Yes, yes! I will, Teacher!" Hearing Leng Yaozhu's words, a surge of ambition welled up in Jing Shaoyu's heart, and his eyes were filled with vigorous fighting spirit.
"Okay, today's work is successfully completed. Let's leave the Spirit Ascension Platform." Leng Yaozhu chuckled.
Thus, the master and disciple exited the Spirit Ascension Platform together.
Opening his eyes from the docking bay, Jing Shaoyu subconsciously looked to the left. To the left was another docking bay, and Leng Yaozhu was lying in it. Due to the special shape of the docking bay, Jing Shaoyu had a panoramic view of Leng Yaozhu's graceful body curves. A surge of heat rushed to his brain, and a rebellious thought arose in his heart.
He immediately shook his head, silently reciting the teacher's rules in his heart, and suppressed the rebellious thoughts in his mind.
"A Yuan, why are you shaking your head? Are you feeling unwell?" Leng Yaozhu had already left the docking bay. Seeing Jing Shaoyu still lying in the docking bay, she couldn't help but feel a touch of concern. She approached and asked.
"N-no." Jing Shaoyu immediately sat up straight and replied with an embarrassed smile.
"Then hurry up and get up," Leng Yaozhu gently tapped Jing Shaoyu's forehead, saying, "It's getting late, your teacher will take you to dinner."
"Okay!" Jing Shaoyu had already calmed down at this time. He jumped directly from the docking bay and followed Leng Yaozhu's pace.
Leng Yaozhu led Jing Shaoyu out of her studio, and Jing Shaoyu realized that this entire floor belonged to Leng Yaozhu personally. In addition to her studio, there were also cultivation rooms, rest rooms, study rooms, reception rooms, etc. In short, this entire floor was hers.
The two boarded the red elevator, and the elevator quickly descended. Jing Shaoyu finally couldn't suppress his strong curiosity.
He asked, "Teacher, that entire floor just now, was it all yours?"
"Mhm!" Leng Yaozhu responded with a light laugh, "The Spirit Pagoda headquarters building has a total of one hundred and eight floors above ground, of which the one hundred and first and one hundred and seventh floors are my territory. We were just on the one hundred and first floor, which is my private space. Without my permission, no one else can enter. As for the one hundred and seventh floor, that's my office. In the future, if you come to the Spirit Pagoda headquarters, you can go directly to the one hundred and first floor."
"I understand." Jing Shaoyu nodded in surprise, then said, "Teacher, your Spirit Pagoda is really rich!"
"That's natural!" Leng Yaozhu said with considerable pride, "If we're talking about foundation, our Spirit Pagoda might not be as good as Shrek Academy, but if we're talking about wealth, then ten Shrek Academies wouldn't compare to our Spirit Pagoda! The purpose of our Spirit Pagoda is to only do business and not talk about politics! The successive Pagoda Masters have regarded this purpose as the highest principle, and none have failed to follow it."
Hearing Leng Yaozhu's words, Jing Shaoyu couldn't help but smile in his heart and asked, "Then Teacher, if a certain Pagoda Master doesn't follow this principle and insists on involving the Spirit Pagoda in politics, or even wants to turn the Spirit Pagoda into the Supreme Emperor of the Federation, what would happen?"
"Hehe!" Leng Yaozhu chuckled upon hearing this and said, "Then I guess that generation's Deputy Pagoda Master would be very happy, because that way he could justifiably become the official Pagoda Master!
The decision-making body of the Spirit Pagoda is composed of one Pagoda Master, two Deputy Pagoda Masters, four Spirit Transfer Envoys, and thirty-six Elders. The Pagoda Master and the two Deputy Pagoda Masters have equivalent authority, which means that unless the Pagoda Master can persuade both Deputy Pagoda Masters at the same time, he will definitely be forcibly dismissed."
"I see." Jing Shaoyu nodded in understanding.
"Alright, these things are still too far away from you, don't dwell on them anymore." Leng Yaozhu rubbed Jing Shaoyu's head and said, "Your task now is to concentrate on improving your cultivation and strength, understand? When your cultivation reaches a certain level, your teacher can directly parachute you into the position of Spirit Transfer Envoy of the Spirit Pagoda!"
"I understand." Jing Shaoyu nodded.
The elevator stopped on the thirty-third floor. This floor was an exclusive dining area for the Spirit Pagoda's senior management and core personnel. The decoration style was very luxurious, and even the most luxurious hotel in East Sea City would seem particularly simple here.
"Your Heavenly Phoenix Crown, you've arrived!" At the elevator exit, a beautiful waitress bowed and said, "Your room has been prepared, please move to the dining area."
"Mm!" Leng Yaozhu nodded aloofly.
They arrived at a spacious and bright room with an elegant and graceful style. On the long table in the room were exquisitely arranged and colorful dishes.
"Sit!" Leng Yaozhu pointed to a seat and said to Jing Shaoyu, "Try the food at our Spirit Pagoda headquarters and see if it suits your taste."
Jing Shaoyu was not polite at all, he sat down directly, his eyes scanning the dishes on the table, his mouth secreting saliva like crazy, he said, "Okay, okay! Then I'll start eating!"
He first picked up the dish closest to him, which was a meat dish, seemingly the meat of some kind of earth dragon, very soft and tender, melting in his mouth, and very delicious. As the earth dragon meat entered his stomach, Jing Shaoyu felt warm all over, and a heat flow surged from his abdomen to his limbs, and his blood surged throughout his body. He felt that his blood seemed to have increased a little.
Jing Shaoyu's face was a little flushed, and he couldn't help but stop his chopsticks, silently adjusting his breathing to digest this sudden surge of energy.
"This is braised dragon meat," Leng Yaozhu explained with a light smile after Jing Shaoyu's complexion returned to normal, "The dragon meat comes from a fifty thousand year Deep Sea Flood Dragon. After eating it, it has the effect of enhancing blood, and strengthening the body."
"Fifty thousand year Deep Sea Flood Dragon?!" Jing Shaoyu was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at the tempting braised dragon meat in front of him with a hint of understanding. No wonder it was so delicious. He picked up another chopstick and put it in his mouth.
This time, he felt that the degree of blood fluctuation was much smaller.
