Chapter 5: Intercepting Tang Wulin, Backstabbing the Sea God Needs to Be Cultivated from a Young Age!
The middle-aged man, Huo Tiangang, was not surprised; after all, this was Ancestral Spirit, their Million Year Soul Beast.
He wouldn't even be surprised if it had innate spirit power of one hundred levels.
"Ancestral Spirit? Do you have any other requests?"
Even he didn't know what Ancestral Spirit was doing, traveling thousands of miles to a small city to awaken a Spirit.
However, since it was Ancestral Spirit, it naturally had its profound meaning.
He only needed to satisfy Ancestral Spirit's conditions.
"Wait a moment!"
He arrived at the monitoring area, and through the large electronic screen, he could clearly see the scene in the awakening room.
A moment later, a small boy with short black hair, noticeably taller than his peers, walked in.
"Tang Wulin! Spirit: Blue Silver Grass! Innate spirit power: Level Three!"
That's right!
He was here to intercept Tang Wulin!
He had made a series of plans targeting Tang God King, and Tang Wulin was the most crucial part of his scheme!
Jiang Chen had never thought of eliminating Tang Wulin in his infancy.
Because it couldn't be done!
With the Sea God's mark and a Sea God clone, no one could threaten Tang Wulin.
He also had the Lord of the Plane as his grandfather and the core of Douluo as his grandmother.
And two quasi-gods, Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape, capable of unleashing god-level power.
This lineup was incredibly luxurious.
Although he was now a Million Year Soul Beast with quasi-god strength!
He couldn't fully unleash it, and he had transformed into a human; he couldn't stop the transformation unless absolutely necessary.
Moreover, he was constantly facing the deadly Million Year heavenly tribulation.
It could be said!
He would be instantly killed if he showed his face!
Tang God King stole his Huo Yuhao, so it's only fair that I poach your son, right?
Besides, he wasn't doing it for himself; he just wanted to ensure that the protagonist, widely acknowledged as the best in the Douluo series, would establish correct values from a young age!
He wanted to cultivate their protagonist into a righteous, reasonable, and discerning individual!
To save him from the clutches of evil!
"Innate Level Three? Blue Silver Grass? But the bloodline is extraordinary~"
As the Huo Family, specializing in researching Spirit bloodlines and Spirit Beast bloodlines, they instantly recognized the extraordinary nature of the Blue Silver Grass.
In this era, innate spirit power no longer determined everything.
As long as one had some spirit power and could contract a decent Soul Spirit, it could improve the Spirit, activate the bloodline, and break through the innate spirit power limit to prevent the exhaustion of postnatal growth levels.
Moreover, he wouldn't underestimate the Blue Silver Grass; after all, wasn't the Spirit of the Sea God, the first generation of the Shrek Seven Devils from Shrek Academy, also Blue Silver Grass?
Blue Silver Grass with golden patterns.
Interesting!
"In the name of the Huo Family or the Spirit Transfer Pagoda?"
Jiang Chen rolled his eyes at him: "What do you think?"
A moment later, a refined woman walked into the awakening room with a smile and approached Tang Wulin.
"Hello? You must be little Tang Wulin!"
"My name is Zhou Qin, and I'm the person in charge of the Spirit Transfer Pagoda in Aolai City. Your bloodline is extraordinary; are you interested in joining the Spirit Transfer Pagoda?"
Tang Wulin didn't know what was happening, but a feeling of resistance inexplicably arose in his mind.
He slightly furrowed his handsome brows and hid behind his father, Tang Ziran.
Upon seeing his son receive an invitation from the Spirit Transfer Pagoda, Tang Ziran was also very surprised.
As a former federal mecha designer and pharmaceutical researcher, he knew the power of the Spirit Transfer Pagoda.
It was a force comparable to Shrek Academy and Tang Sect!
He hadn't expected his son to be invited by the Spirit Transfer Pagoda. Although he was somewhat moved, he still respected Tang Wulin's wishes.
He shook his head and refused.
Alas!
The Spirit Transfer Pagoda was founded by Tang God King's son-in-law, so why was Tang God King so resistant to his own son having contact with the Spirit Transfer Pagoda?
Is it a matter of closeness and distance?
Zhou Qin was not surprised; instead, she took out a document and handed it to Tang Ziran.
"This is the Spirit Transfer Pagoda's genius cultivation plan. Generally, any genius recognized by the Spirit Transfer Pagoda will receive additional subsidies from the Spirit Transfer Pagoda."
"This doesn't count as joining the Spirit Transfer Pagoda. After all, even as a Spirit Master, you can receive subsidies from the Spirit Transfer Pagoda; it's just that yours will be a bit more."
Consider it an early investment.
After all, the Spirit Transfer Pagoda couldn't possibly recruit all the geniuses in the world; some would join the Federation, the Tang Sect, Shrek Academy, and so on.
What if they developed a good impression of the Spirit Transfer Pagoda and chose to join it in the future?
Based on the principle of not losing out, the Spirit Transfer Pagoda didn't mind providing more funding anyway; it was just a matter of spending gold coins, and the Spirit Transfer Pagoda had no shortage of gold coins!
Not everyone could be like a certain God King, who took gold coins from the Spirit Hall and then destroyed them, like an ungrateful wretch.
"You know, when you reach Level Ten and need to acquire a Soul Spirit, choosing a good Soul Spirit requires..."
"Little Wu Lin! You don't want your parents to work hard day and night for you!"
Tang Wulin: ...
Although he found the words strange, he still endured the resistance in his heart and nodded.
He didn't know when it started, but his appetite had grown bigger and bigger, adding a considerable burden to his family's food expenses.
Now, if he could make his parents' lives a little easier, it would be fine.
Anyway, it was all free; they couldn't possibly be trying to trick him, right?
Moreover, if it weren't for the resistance in his heart, he wouldn't have refused the Spirit Transfer Pagoda's invitation. After all, he was just a Spirit Master who awakened the Blue Silver Grass Spirit with only Level Three innate spirit power, incomparable to those great figures.
What else could others covet from him?
"Thank you, big sister!"
Zhou Qin smiled, though she didn't know why the higher-ups wanted to recruit a Spirit Master with only Level Three innate spirit power and a Blue Silver Grass Spirit.
Especially since Ji Juechen, the Sword Douluo from ten thousand years ago, achieved the Titled Douluo rank with Level Three innate spirit power.
After so many years of development, the Spirit Transfer Pagoda no longer placed as much emphasis on innate spirit power; instead, they focused more on the bloodline within the Spirit and whether it could be stimulated to produce Spirit variations.
But what kind of bloodline could the Blue Silver Grass have?
It couldn't be the Blue Silver Emperor, could it? The Blue Silver Emperor's awakening also required full innate spirit power.
Although Zhou Qin didn't understand, if the higher-ups said something, there was naturally a reason for it.
She just had to do as she was told.
"Ancestral Spirit! Ancestral Spirit! What's so special about this little boy? Why do you need to take such care of him!"
"Yun'er! Don't be rude!" Huo Tiangang frowned slightly, scolding Huo Yun'er. One must always show respect to Ancestral Spirit!
Huo Yun'er merely stuck out her tongue and hid on Jiang Chen's other side.
Watching Tang Wulin leave, Jiang Chen shook his head, deciding he needed to observe for two more days.
"Alright, little Yun'er, what kind of Soul Spirit do you want?"
"Just follow the family's guidelines."
After so many years of development, the Huo Family had already developed a set of the most suitable Spirit Ability choices for the Evil Eyes White Tiger, Three-Eyed White Tiger, and Spirit Eyes Spirits.
For the Evil Eyes White Tiger, they could just use the Dai Family's from the Star Luo Federation; with a few optimizations, it could still be used.
For the Spirit Eyes Spirit, they would follow Ling Bing Douluo's path. The Spirit Transfer Pagoda had already developed ways to enhance the strength and lifespan of Soul Spirits, and the primary Soul Spirit for this was the Ice Silkworm.
It could provide Spirit Abilities such as spiritual detection, spiritual sharing, and spiritual interference Domain.
Of course, it wasn't as abnormal as Huo Yuhao's first Spirit Ability with four skills, but having one of them was already very good.
The Three-Eyed White Tiger was somewhere between the Evil Eyes White Tiger and the Spirit Eyes; its development depended on itself.
However, the main thing was still to see what Spirit Abilities their Ancestral Spirit could bring!
