Inside the Spirit Pagoda.
Su Chen stopped hiding his strength and swept through almost everything in his path.
Whether they were Millennium Soul Beasts or Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, Su Chen subdued them all with ease, then let Gu Yue finish them off.
Along the way, they also ran into plenty of other teams. Su Chen couldn't be bothered to keep up the act and simply kicked them all to death, so they wouldn't compete with him for Soul Beasts.
The Riot Period Spirit Ascension Platform allowed people to plunder the Soul Ring years gained by others from hunting Soul Beasts. All the teams were competitors.
Even if Su Chen didn't make the first move, the others would come after him. He couldn't be bothered with the trouble, so he killed everyone he came across.
In just half a day, Su Chen had fed Gu Yue until she was full, evolving her Soul Spirit into a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
Gu Yue left early.
Su Chen stayed in the Spirit Ascension Platform for another half day, raising the Soul Spirit of his Soul Suppressing Pagoda to ten thousand years. Along the way, he also gained the Soul Suppressing Pagoda's fourth Soul Skill—Exorcism Domain.
It created a domain that could dispel all negative effects. It also countered Soul Skills with dark or evil attributes.
It was especially effective against Evil Soul Masters, and could counter most of their nasty Soul Skills.
Meanwhile, the Soul Spirit of Su Chen's Void Chrono Dragon Martial Soul had reached twenty thousand years.
The fourth Soul Skill of Su Chen's Second Martial Soul was rather special. It was called "Spatial Orb."
This Soul Skill was a spatial container about a kilometer in diameter.
Once released, it could exist permanently, essentially giving him an enormous, super-powered Storage Soul Tool.
