Spirit Ascension Once More [Please Keep Reading]

With the death of the Demon Tiger Cat, the two purple soul rings beneath Li Jinsheng's feet were instantly dyed black.

Spirit ascension! Ten-thousand-year soul rings.

At the same time, the Jade Swan manifested beside Li Jinsheng, as though it had been infused with an invisible wellspring of life.

It let out a clear, lingering cry. The sound waves rippled outward as an unprecedented radiance of life bloomed around it.

Its jade-like feathers rose with the light, each one seeming as though it had been washed in water—crystal-clear, with flowing brilliance within, gleaming brightly.

Its body seemed to quietly stretch out as well, becoming even more elegant and upright.

Most striking of all were its long tail feathers. They had once merely been gorgeous, but now they carried an almost sacred bearing, layered upon layer like a phoenix's tail, drifting softly.

It lightly flapped its wings. Amid the shifting light and shadow, it truly seemed to possess the extraordinary aura of one about to break free from the mortal world, climb atop a parasol tree branch, and transform into a phoenix.

Li Jinsheng lowered his head to look at the two deep black soul rings beneath his feet, then said to Gu Yue beside him, "Let's go too! My spirit ascension succeeded! How many more years can you endure?"

Gu Yue did not linger, nor did she have any desire to say more to Li Jinsheng. She directly chose to leave the Spirit Ascension Platform. She knew that Li Jinsheng's physique was monstrous. After training, he truly gained as much as he put in, with practically no bottleneck periods.

Two ten-thousand-year soul rings would not put any pressure on him at all.

Though her Spiritual Power was strong, the physical strength she displayed was still insufficient to support two ten-thousand-year soul rings.

"Damn! Wuqing!" Li Jinsheng could not help saying when he saw this.

Pressing the Signal Receiver, the two left the Spirit Ascension Platform one after the other.

The metal wall slid open soundlessly, and a streamlined Metal Cabin was slowly pushed out, its surface still wreathed in thin white vapor.

The cabin lid flipped upward, and Li Jinsheng abruptly sat up from within, unable to suppress his excitement as he said, "Now I'm someone with ten-thousand-year soul rings too! In the past thousand years, I'm probably the only one who's mastered ten-thousand-year soul rings at the age of ten!"

His laughter echoed through the room, sounding especially clear.

Gu Yue stepped out from the adjacent cabin, her steps steady. With an expressionless face, she walked past him, gave Li Jinsheng a speechless glance, then rolled her eyes at him.

It was as if she had said nothing, yet also as if she had said everything.

At that moment, Li Jinsheng's laughter suddenly caught in his throat. A crisp, dangerous set of footsteps approached from afar—the sound of high heels striking the floor. The rhythm was neither hurried nor slow, yet every step seemed to strike directly against Li Jinsheng's heart.

The sound stopped at the doorway, and Li Jinsheng stared at the door with a deathly pale face.

The first thing that entered his sight was a pair of Dark Red High Heels with exquisitely elegant lines, wrapping around a pair of pale feet. Moving his gaze upward, he could see the faint outline of legs through the slit of a cheongsam, as well as the Red Cheongsam tightly hugging her captivating curves. The fabric was like flowing flames, shimmering with a delicate sheen as her posture shifted slightly.

The woman had a slender waist and a tall, graceful figure.

Higher still was a head of fiery Red Long Hair, loosely draped over her shoulders. Finally, on that delicate face was a terrifying, dangerous smile. Her gaze swept over the two people in the cabins before finally settling on Li Jinsheng, who had just climbed out.

Leng Yaozhu crossed her arms over her chest and parted her red lips. "Li Jinsheng, your new Self-Created Soul Skill is too dangerous. You are not allowed to use it unless your life is in danger!"

"Aunt Leng, no! I'm level twenty-nine already, and I barely have any attack techniques!" Li Jinsheng crawled straight over to Leng Yaozhu and hugged her pale, jade-like foot.

"Wuwu~~, the last one wasn't dangerous! It couldn't instantly kill the opponent!"

Looking at the pitiful boy pressing his face against her thigh, then recalling that previous technique, Leng Yaozhu could not help but smile. "It can't kill them instantly, but death is only a matter of time! In the end, it hardens the body until even the respiratory tract hardens, causing death by suffocation. And you still don't think it's dangerous!"

"Wuwuwu~~~, Aunt Leng, doesn't it have drawbacks? I have to touch them to activate it! It's not dangerous! I'm not fast! I can't hit anyone!"

Li Jinsheng begged. He already did not have as many cool special effects as Gu Yue. If he could only use his fists, then with his skinny arms and legs and his refined appearance, how was he supposed to show off? How was he supposed to look cool?

My abilities are strong, but there are no special effects!

That Second Soul Skill also had to be shaped like Nuwa Creates Humans, and he even had to understand those creatures well enough.

The restrictions were far too great!

Though he could still secretly use those abilities himself.

Gu Yue could not help smiling as she watched Li Jinsheng cry miserably. Of all these people, only Leng Yaozhu could keep him in line. Moreover, Leng Yaozhu had already mastered the correct way to use Li Jinsheng.

Basically, whenever she was going to see Qian Gu Dongfeng, she brought him along. Boys were supposed to be a little mischievous, weren't they?

He was still just a child. How could adults lower themselves to the level of children?

Every time, Qian Gu Dongfeng would be so angered by Li Jinsheng that he wanted to hit someone! When adults were talking, what was a child butting in for!

But when facing Leng Yaozhu, he immediately fell silent. He had even developed an instinctive aversion whenever he saw men with black hair and black eyes.

Just then, Gu Yue's Communication Soul Tool rang, and a message lit up on its screen.

[Dad: We found what you were looking for! It's in Eastsea City!]

Seeing the message, the girl could not help frowning. Why had they not found it two and a half years ago, only for it to appear in Eastsea City now?

Suppressing the anger in her heart, she picked up the Communication Soul Tool and replied.

[Gu Yue: Got it! I'll find a way to make a trip to Eastsea City.]

On the other end of the Communication Soul Tool was naturally Di Tian—the leader of the Ten Great Fierce Beasts, the Soul Beast clan's sole standard-bearer, and the future spaceship.

"Master already knows this information! I wonder where that brat Tang Wulin got such pure Golden Dragon King Bloodline." Di Tian spoke as he frowned. "Could something have happened to Lord Golden Dragon King in the God Realm?"

"Don't think about that for now... When do we make our move?!" Myriad Demon King stood beside Di Tian, while one of his treant avatars secretly followed Tang Wulin!

"We wait for Master's orders!" Di Tian said.

"Yes!"

At Spirit Pagoda Headquarters, Gu Yue watched a certain someone routinely clinging to Leng Yaozhu's leg and wailing in misery. She slowly walked over and kicked him away!

"Gu Yue! You did that on purpose, didn't you?!" Li Jinsheng roared angrily after tumbling aside.

Gu Yue planted her hands on her hips and said coldly, "No. You just looked like you were itching for a beating!"

"Hmph!" Li Jinsheng glanced at Leng Yaozhu before turning away. "Just wait. I'll remember this grudge!"

Watching the two children's usual way of getting along, Leng Yaozhu could only smile helplessly. Though they bickered and fought all the time, the two actually had a good relationship.

It was just that Li Jinsheng's personality was practically a repellent to the opposite sex. He had such a handsome face for nothing. Of the two girls who could be considered his childhood sweethearts, he got along with one like they were mortal enemies, while with the other, he had directly become sworn brothers! Other people had brothers of different surnames; he had a brother of the opposite sex.

That personality of his was truly refreshingly unconventional!

And it vaguely seemed to be heading in a direction where even gender was becoming hard to distinguish.

She looked at Gu Yue and asked, "Gu Yue, do you have something to take care of?"

"There's a small matter in the family. I need to return to Eastsea for a trip!" Gu Yue's tone was calm, with not the slightest sign that she was lying.

"I see! Then I'll accompany you back to Eastsea. Perfect—I can relax there for a bit too." Leng Yaozhu smiled gently, seeing no issue at all with her disciple's request.

Meanwhile, Li Jinsheng picked up his Communication Soul Tool and sent a message to "World-Shocking Wisdom · White Hair" in his contacts.

[Second Brother! Gu Yue is going to Eastsea! Let's go out for a meal tomorrow to celebrate.]

Beep beep beep!

[Great! See you at Snack Street!]

Gu Yue caught Li Jinsheng's subtle expression. This guy was definitely planning to find Na'er, so she reminded him, "Li Jinsheng, come back with us too. You must really miss Su Haitao and the others!"

"Fine!" Li Jinsheng felt like crying without tears. That great demon actually used Su Haitao as an excuse to drag him along. What an awful old hag!

Still, this was the perfect chance to get revenge on Stinky Bear! I'm no longer the weak, pitiful, helpless person I was back then!

As for the External Soul Bone! This thing is fated to be mine! It shall fall into my hands.

With that thought, he typed another message onto the screen.

[That great demon is taking me along too! I can't make it!]

[What an awful old woman! We'll make plans another time!]

Inside Sea God Pavilion, Na'er held her Communication Soul Tool and stared at the message from "Super Invincible Handsome!" Her cheeks puffed up with anger. Gu Yue had actually stolen away her meal buddy!

She tossed and turned on the bed, furious and annoyed! She looked utterly pitiful.

What an awful Gu Yue! A thoroughly wicked Gu Yue!

But no matter how she thought about it, there was no stopping it now!

Early the next morning, Leng Yaozhu brought the three of them aboard her Heavenly Phoenix Mech, which slowly ignited and rose into the air.

They set off for Eastsea City!
