Chapter 236: Promoting the Soul Transmission Tower
Seeing everyone's expressions, Tuoba Xi remained calm on the surface, but sneered in his heart.
“Hehe, laugh all you want. I wonder if you’ll still be able to laugh when I summon a 100,000-year spirit ring later!”
Tuoba Xi didn't delay. With a movement of his spirit power, he lit up the dizzyingly complex Texture on the Soul Convergence Seal, and a bright red spirit ring appeared before his eyes.
“What the heck? What is that? A spirit ring? A red 100,000-year spirit ring? Are you kidding me? Am I seeing things?”
“Seeing things my ass! If your eyes aren’t working, can’t you still feel the spirit power fluctuations of the spirit ring? Such a powerful fluctuation must undoubtedly be from a 100,000-year spirit ring!”
“A 100,000-year spirit ring! That spirit tool called the Soul Convergence Seal can actually produce spirit rings like a Spirit Beast? And it’s a 100,000-year one, that’s incredible!”
The moment the 100,000-year spirit ring appeared, the thousands of Spirit Masters in the arena all stood up, craning their necks, looking at the stage with faces full of shock.
Then, the surroundings instantly became as noisy as a marketplace, with all sorts of chaotic sounds incessantly ringing out.
It wasn't that their composure was lacking; it was simply that the scene before them was too shocking. They never imagined that one day, obtaining a spirit ring wouldn't even require hunting a Spirit Beast.
Moreover, what appeared before them was a 100,000-year spirit ring. They had heard the Saint Child say earlier that this was a Level 9 Soul Convergence Seal. Did that mean below Level 9, there were also Level 8, Level 7, or even lower levels?
At this moment, their hearts felt as if insects were crawling, itching unbearably. They looked at the Soul Convergence Seal in Tuoba Xi's hand, wishing they could rush onto the stage and snatch it away.
But Tuoba Xi now had no time to observe the reactions of the crowd. He stared at the bright red spirit ring before him, his eyes filled with infatuation.
Then, he took a deep breath, sat cross-legged on the stage, released his Spirit, and began to attract and absorb the spirit ring.
When Bai Yu saw Tuoba Xi begin to absorb the spirit ring, he waved his hand, and a gentle breeze appeared around him, isolating the chaotic sounds from the arena.
“Quiet! I believe all of you have seen the function of this Soul Convergence Seal. That’s right, it can break free from the shackles of Spirit Beasts and directly produce spirit rings.”
“Moreover, this Soul Convergence Seal is not a one-time use item. As long as it’s properly maintained, a single Soul Convergence Seal can be used for even a hundred years without damage.”
“Sect Leader Tuoba’s breakthrough to Level 90 this time, at the invitation of Spirit Hall, is to demonstrate the Soul Convergence Seal to all of you. You must all want to know why Spirit Hall is doing this.”
After Bai Yu isolated Tuoba Xi from the surroundings, he looked at the chaotic scene, with many people’s eyes flickering, eager to try something.
Immediately, a silver light flashed in his eyes, and a violent spirit power pressure swept across the surroundings, making those with ulterior motives recall their fear of Spirit Hall once again.
After the surroundings quieted down, Bai Yu continued to explain the Soul Convergence Seal.
“Brother Bai, stop keeping us in suspense. Quickly tell us, what are your plans? After all, I am also very curious about your Soul Convergence Seal.”
‘Xue Qinghe’ sat on the judging panel, acting as Bai Yu’s hype man.
Bai Yu glanced at ‘Xue Qinghe,’ a smile playing on his lips, and continued:
“Since Brother Qinghe is curious, then I will speak plainly.”
“There are nine levels of this Soul Convergence Seal, corresponding to the nine levels of Spirit Masters. In recent years, Spirit Hall has deeply felt the difficulty Spirit Masters on the continent face in obtaining spirit rings, especially when they are weak.”
“Therefore, Spirit Hall has decided to establish Soul Transmission Towers in the Spirit sub-halls of various cities on the continent, storing Soul Convergence Seals within the towers to allow Spirit Masters on the continent to choose the spirit ring most suitable for them.”
“Of course, due to the difficulty in crafting high-level Soul Convergence Seals, the levels of the Soul Transmission Towers in each city will also vary.”
“Small cities will have three-story Soul Transmission Towers, storing Level 1 to Level 3 Soul Convergence Seals, available for use by Spirit Elders and those below Spirit Elder.”
“Main cities will have five-story Soul Transmission Towers, royal capitals will have seven-story Soul Transmission Towers, and the Imperial capitals of the two Empires will have eight-story Soul Transmission Towers.”
Speaking of this, Bai Yu paused, observing the reactions of the crowd in the arena.
And now, the people in the audience could be roughly divided into three categories.
The first category consisted of people from the two Empires. At this moment, their expressions were not very good, because they knew that Spirit Hall’s move was clearly an attempt to win over people’s hearts.
This was undoubtedly quite detrimental to the rule of the two Empires, but they absolutely could not stop this matter, otherwise, they would be making enemies of all the Spirit Masters on the entire continent.
The second category consisted of individuals or forces who had ideas about the Soul Convergence Seal. They were thinking that since Spirit Hall was setting up such a large operation, they certainly wouldn't be able to guard it all.
If that were the case, would they have a chance to get some Soul Convergence Seals into their own hands, or even decipher and research them?
The third category was very simple; they were mostly independent Spirit Masters without any backing, for whom obtaining spirit rings was extremely difficult.
Therefore, they wholeheartedly supported Spirit Hall’s establishment of Soul Transmission Towers, as they too could benefit from it.
Bai Yu, with his powerful mental force, noticed that many people’s eyes were flickering, harboring ulterior motives, and he couldn’t help but sneer inwardly.
He naturally knew what those people were planning, but he didn't care.
Leaving aside whether they had the guts to snatch them, even if they did manage to get their hands on them, without the corresponding array inheritance, they wouldn't be able to research anything from them.
Moreover, to deal with such matters, Bai Yu had specifically added a positioning device to the Soul Convergence Seal. If someone really did snatch it, hehe, did they think Spirit Hall wouldn’t kill people?
So it just depended on which hero wasn't afraid of death and would be the first to detonate this bomb. As long as there was one example of killing the chicken to warn the monkeys, Bai Yu believed that all forces on the continent would quiet down afterward.
“Your Highness, the Saint Child, since Spirit Hall wants to establish Soul Transmission Towers, what do we need to pay to obtain spirit rings in the tower?”
“That’s right, Your Highness, the Saint Child. Also, since the Soul Transmission Tower corresponds to levels by floor, then a Level 9 Soul Convergence Seal should also have a nine-story Soul Transmission Tower, right? Where will this nine-story Soul Transmission Tower be established?”
After the initial uproar, the crowd in the arena gradually came back to their senses. Spirit Hall’s grand gesture, if said to be entirely for the benefit of the continent, they certainly wouldn’t believe it.
Therefore, there must be conditions to obtain spirit rings in the Soul Transmission Tower. Moreover, the Imperial capitals of the two Empires only had eight-story towers, so what about the nine-story one? It must be in Spirit City, right?
Bai Yu heard the questions from the crowd and let out a light chuckle.
“Hehe, I know what you all are thinking, but this time, you’ve truly guessed wrong. There are actually no requirements to obtain spirit rings in the Soul Transmission Tower.”
“All that’s needed is for the person coming to obtain a spirit ring to learn about the doctrines left by the Angel God, and then pay some gold coins.”
“There’s no need to join Spirit Hall, and even less need to do anything dangerous.”
