Chapter 486: Entering Shark Infested Waters

In the past millions of years, the study of the manipulation of the spirit had slowly and yet constantly evolved into becoed science, more advanced than any other types of cultivation This science included, a of different amounts of one's spirit with an uncountable nu one's spirit into their own bodies,spirits from one species to another, and many more

All of this was possible thanks to the versatile nature of the spirit, but this versatility had never been so evident to the spiritual scholars What was known of the spirit in the present, was the fruit of , and had required countless experiuess a nu up, were conducted by using a constant streainally, these scholars were kept in the territories of their groups of origin to prevent their research fro conscious inhabitants of the spiritual world had realized that researchers would benefit from one another, and that as needed was not a study room where they could dedicate themselves to research, only to be burdened by the problems of their faction at the end of the day But a sanctuary where they would live and breath their own research

In order to aid this level of dedication, the Laboratory had been created A city inhabited by the most brilliant and often sadistic spiritual cultivators, who had decided to dedicate virtually all of their nearly-infinite lives in the pursuit of a form of collective white whale The perfect and most powerful path of spiritual cultivation Now, thousands of researchers lived in the Laboratory, focusing on their individual research and only interacting with each other when they needed suggestions, validation for their theories, or to check whether one of the others had already conducted the sa weeks Daniel had traveled towards the Laboratory at full speed, and without taking a moment of rest Even when attacked, he would curve the space around his body to create a spatial curvature that would allow him to leave his pursuers in the dust Finally, at the end of these fifteen days, he found hi in front of it A squarely built city that extended for hundreds of kilometers in each direction, and that was filled with identical sis, all protected by numerous powerful fore into the city and slaughter his way to Alesia's spirit, but the moment he saw the size of the city, and felt the power ofhis way in was not a good choice Without the power of creatingwith caution was a necessity which, fortunately, he had not forgotten

Instead of barging in, he landed on the entrance of the city and walked towards the gate, where he was stopped by a cultivator at the late Godhood stage ”Halt Show , and for what reason” The guard ordered, unbothered by the fact that Daniel was holding the rights to a whole universe in his body, and seerobbed or killed, then heclan, and a famous one at that

”I a in” Responded Daniel with a flat tone and an aloof expression

After thinking carefully about it, Daniel had come to the conclusion that there were only three ways for him to enter the Laboratory

The first as to kill his way in, an option which he had discarded the ree of power of which the city could count on The second as to pretend to be a member of the Soul Clan, and claim that he was there to visit the former envoy that had just moved in This path would have allowed him not only to enter, but also to find Yaqi, and by extension, Alesia's spirit However, this path had becouard had spoken He was not aware that he needed identification to enter the Laboratory, and frouards, Daniel had no doubt that, even if he said that he had lost it, they wouldn't have believed him

What was left was for Daniel to pursue his third option, which was to try and enter as a researcher

After Daniel's response, a second guard disappeared fro with a scrawny lasses partially covered by his long, greasy and unkept grey hair

”Which clan or clans are your patreons, and what is your research about?” Asked the scrawny researcher without bothering with stating his na for Daniel's

Daniel looked at this researcher with contempt, then said, ”I am the leader of my clan, and my research is none of your damn business”

”Ohh, well said” said the researcher while letting out a faint smile This was not the first time that a cultivator new to the spiritual world had tried to enter the Laboratory After all, each founder of a faction was a pioneer in their personal path of cultivation, which they would simplify and distribute to their followers Once these cultivators would reach the spiritual world, they would often begin to research their personal path of cultivation, usually in hope to find their limits, or even to replicate it

The smile on the researcher's face disappeared soon after, as he said with a rant you entry to our little paradise, but as a requirement, you have to justify your permanence Give me a broad description of your research, or leave Who knows, youkilled by those who are eyeing you as we speak”

In the physical world, revealing the nature of soe taboo, so as to ask about it, but, alas, Daniel had no choice So he let out a bit of his true immortal essence, which contained his ki, spiritual essence, and mental power in the space around him
