Even though the sea spirit beasts had already severed ties with the spirit beast race hundreds of thousands of years ago and switched allegiance to the sea god.
Gu Yue still considered the sea spirit beasts to be his subjects, and, relying on his status as the ruler of all spirit beasts, refused to attack them.
Seeing Gu Yue scrutinizing him, Su Mo generously opened his arms to let Gu Yue see him clearly.
Upon seeing this, Gu Yue immediately lost interest, turned around, and followed the group.
Seeing Gu Yue's disgusted expression, Su Mo wasn't annoyed and leisurely followed at the back of the group, admiring the Spirit Transmission Tower in Donghai City.
The Spirit Pagoda in Donghai City has a total of thirteen floors and is one of the eighteen Heavenly Pillars built by the Spirit Pagoda headquarters with a lot of resources.
Unlike ordinary spirit towers used to sell souls and help federal citizens awaken, only spirit towers of the level of Donghai City have spirit ascension platforms inside.
The Chuanling Pagoda in Donghai City has a straight and slender body with sharp edges, like a sharp sword cutting through the sky.
A huge spherical pearl is embedded at the top of the tower. From a distance, the entire Spirit Transmission Tower looks like a lighthouse, perfectly blending the culture of Donghai City.
Of course, this giant pearl is not just for decoration; its interior is filled with a dense array of soul-guiding devices and formations.
When necessary, it can unleash a defensive array large enough to cover the entire Donghai City, protecting its people from natural disasters and invasions by other countries.
Su Mo was very interested in how the Spirit Ascension Platform worked, but the Spirit Transmission Tower was too well-secret.
Su Mo wanted to gather some information but didn't know where to start.
There was not a single useful piece of information; even a god like Su Mo couldn't possibly decipher it.
Not to mention that Su Mo's technology tree mainly focuses on biotechnology.

Chapter 16 Ascension Platform
As soon as you step into the Spirit Pagoda, you're greeted by an aura of wealth.
The entire interior of the Spirit Pagoda was resplendent in gold, and the air was thick with the smell of burning money.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing here is the mural that records the heroic deeds of Lingbing Douluo Huo Yuhao and his souls in resisting the beast tide.
Su Mo didn't feel much about Huo Yuhao, that unlucky guy.
Based on the information Su Mo knew, becoming Tang San's dog... no, son-in-law was indeed his only way out as the chosen one of Douluo Star.
There's nothing we can do; this world is just that cruel.
When you are being schemed against by someone you have absolutely no chance of resisting, you only have two paths to take: either die or obediently follow the other party's arrangements.
Moreover, Huo Yuhao was a lucky guy in a way, at least he himself was unaware that he had been tricked by Tang San.
Living in the wonderful life that Tang San created for him is a kind of happiness.
Perhaps he himself is even enjoying it.
Led by the staff of the Spirit Pagoda, Su Mo and his group quickly took the elevator to a circular room.
Inside the room, a group of staff members were busy working methodically, their eyes glued to the huge screen above them.
They only stopped what they were doing when Wu Changkong brought his men in.
"You're here!" The middle-aged staff member in the lead, named Wang Ling, greeted Wu Changkong warmly.
Previously, when Tang Wulin and others entered the Spirit Ascension Platform for training, Wang Ling was always in charge.
Upon seeing Su Mo in the crowd, Wang Ling instinctively teased, "Teacher Wu, have you gained another little genius?"
Wu Changkong snorted coldly and ignored the other party.
As a member of the Tang Sect, how could Wu Changkong possibly have a good attitude towards the people of the Spirit Pagoda, especially since the relationship between the Spirit Pagoda, the Tang Sect, and Shrek Academy has become increasingly delicate in recent years.
Wang Ling was taken aback when he saw that Wu Changkong was ignoring him.
Unexpectedly, he, as a member of the Spirit Pagoda, would one day be met with indifference. He then muttered to himself, "What's with the act of being aloof? He still uses other people's spots to give private lessons to his favorite students."
Upon hearing Wang Ling's complaint, Wu Changkong stopped and glared at him fiercely.
Faced with Wu Changkong's murderous gaze, Wang Ling returned the favor without hesitation.
Wang Ling was fully aware of the fact that Wu Changkong was giving Tang Wulin special treatment, since Tang Wulin and the others had to go through him to enter the Spirit Ascension Platform.
Wang Ling originally thought that the extra attempts Tang Wulin had made were paid for by Wu Changkong out of his own pocket because he thought highly of Tang Wulin.
It's now clear that Wu Changkong took other students' spots for Tang Wulin, and yet he still has the nerve to act aloof in front of me.
Since this was the Spirit Pagoda, and Tang Wulin and the others would need to rely on the other party later, Wu Changkong could only snort coldly and pretend he hadn't heard it.
Tang Wulin wanted to say a few words in defense of Wu Changkong, but before he could speak, Wu Changkong secretly stopped him with a telepathic message.
Fortunately, the people at the Spirit Pagoda were quite professional. Seeing that Wu Changkong remained silent, Wang Ling didn't bother to dwell on it and immediately told the others to get ready.
With the help of the Spirit Transmission Tower staff, Su Mo and the others quickly lay down in the Spirit Ascension pod.
The technology of the Spirit Transmission Tower is undeniable, but Su Mo simply couldn't stand the design of the Spirit Ascension pod.
Such a high-tech product has to be designed to look like a morgue.
As the person outside pressed the button, Su Mo, lying in the Spirit Ascension pod, felt a tingling sensation throughout her body, as a mysterious force was drawing her consciousness in.
But before Su Mo could process it all, the pitch-black space suddenly lit up.
The sudden sunlight made Su Mo dizzy, and she subconsciously shielded her eyes with her hand.
Although Su Mo had used the Transformation Technique to move around in human society quite often in the past, he had never entered the Spirit Ascension Platform in order to avoid being noticed.
"We must never underestimate anyone!"
Feeling the realism that was indistinguishable from reality, Su Mo clenched his fist tightly.
Previously, because of Tang San, Su Mo actually had a slight disdain for the humans on Douluo Star.
However, after experiencing the authenticity of the Spirit Ascension Platform, Su Mo had to admit that the Spirit Transmission Tower was technologically advanced.
Such a realistic virtual environment is comparable to the environment created by Tsukuyomi.
More importantly, what you gain here can actually be reflected in reality.
This method is something that could never be done in Naruto.
"Su Mo..."
While Su Mo was deep in thought, Tang Wulin's voice suddenly rang in her ears.
Seeing Tang Wulin's hesitant expression, Su Mo wasn't stupid and naturally understood what Tang Wulin wanted to say.
Before I arrived, Tang Wulin had always been the captain of the five-person group.
But now that someone else has joined the team, it has become uncertain whether Tang Wulin will continue to serve as captain.
"You guys have fun on your own, I'll find somewhere to stay!"
Su Mo waved his hand at Tang Wulin, he had no interest in playing house with Tang Wulin and the others here.
I'd rather find a place to sleep and feel better than waste this time.
Seeing that Su Mo planned to act alone, Tang Wulin felt somewhat relieved, but quickly realized that his thinking was wrong.
Tang Wulin wanted to try to persuade Su Mo to stay, but when he looked up, he found that Su Mo had already walked far away.
Watching Su Mo's departing figure, Tang Wulin felt conflicted and didn't know what to say.
"Alright, Wu Lin, let him go wherever he wants. It's his own decision."
Seeing Tang Wulin's dejected look, Xie Xie, Tang Wulin's best friend, quickly patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.
Gu Yue also comforted him at the right time, saying, "He doesn't cooperate with us at all. If he joins us rashly, he might just drag us down instead."
Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi nodded in complete agreement.
Although the two of them were classmates with Su Mo before, they were not familiar with Su Mo at all because Su Mo had been absent from school for a long time.
Not to mention that they had received a Thousand-Refined Cloud Titanium Vest from Tang Wulin before they came.
Seeing that everyone else said the same thing, Tang Wulin felt much better.
Off-screen, Wu Changkong was intently watching Su Mo, who had broken away from the group and was acting alone. He was very curious about what Su Mo planned to do next.
Wu Changkong is still very confident in Tang Wulin and his group.
As long as they don't encounter a ferocious soul beast like the Human-Faced Demon Spider, Tang Wulin and his companions can completely dominate the primary Spirit Ascension Platform.
After obtaining two 9999-year spirit rings, Su Mo was destined not to be able to use the spiritual power of the Spirit Ascension Platform to increase the age of his spirit rings like Tang Wulin and the others.
Allowing Su Mo to enter the Spirit Ascension Platform would undoubtedly be a waste of that spot.
Rather than letting Su Mo waste this spot, it's better to give it to someone who needs it more.
That's why Wu Changkong felt at ease leaving Su Mo's spot for Tang Wulin to use.
The contract has been signed. Feel free to share any opinions in the comments section.

Chapter 17 Mu Xi
Su Mo was well aware that the Spirit Ascension Platform was of no use to him, so after symbolically hunting down some soul beasts, he simply stopped using it.
After groping around in the forest for a while, Su Mo finally stopped under a lonely big tree.
Su Mo stretched out her right hand as if she were sensing something.
Off-screen,
Wu Changkong and the staff of the Spirit Pagoda, who had been keeping a close eye on Su Mo's movements, were completely baffled by Su Mo's inexplicable actions.
In all the years since the Spirit Ascension Platform was established, this was the first time they had ever seen someone like Su Mo who killed a soul beast but didn't absorb its spiritual power to strengthen himself.
