"Believe in yourself, Gross. As the most talented genius of the Nightingale family, you will definitely be able to pass the test of the crimson river!"
Gross stood at the edge of the crimson river and muttered to himself, repeating the key points recorded in the family's secret records.
"First of all, you must remember that you cannot give up halfway through any mystical level breakthrough. As long as you choose to start, you can only persevere to the end, regardless of success or failure …
"Then, the crimson river has a powerful corrosive effect that can corrode souls. Therefore, soul protection is the most important."
As he muttered to himself, he cast a nameless spell to add layers of protection to his soul.
"Corrosion Isolation!
"Spirituality Enhancement!
"Brilliant Guardian!"
…
He used all sorts of nameless spells, potions, and mystical items, making his spirit body look as though he was wearing a layer of colorful glowing clothes.
"Lastly, the crimson river has tides. When the day and night are separated in every Spiriters' Realm, the tides will be the most turbulent. After the biggest tide is over, there will be a brief period of tranquility, which is the best time to swim!"
This was a secret that the Nightingale family had paid a terrible price to discover. Only the direct descendants of the family knew about it.
Moreover, if not for the fact that they believed in the Arbiter of Time and paid great attention to timing, they would not have discovered this wonderful node.
It was precisely because of this that the Nightingale family's "Ascenders" were endless. They were one of the few mystical wealthy families in the entire Mesopotamian Federation. At the same time, they were also a large magnate.
"I can do it, I can do it."
As Gross prepared, he nervously opened an old pocket watch and carefully checked the time.
The time in the spirit world was very chaotic. It was easy to make mistakes by observing the outside world. This mystical item was a family treasure. This time, he had specially borrowed it at the expense of the family's contribution points for his advancement.
"It's coming. The biggest wave!"
Gross looked at the surging and boiling river of blood and muttered.
…
"This person … is really bored. He's prepared so much, but he's still not going into the water?"
Chung Shen-soo could not stand it anymore and walked over. "Hey, brother, are you ready to swim?"
"Yes … Damn!"
Only then did he see the figure walking over. He was shocked. "No … I'm sorry. I was too excited just now. I didn't expect to meet a fellow traveler in the Spiritual Realm."
The fact that they had made it this far meant that they had at least reached the peak of Distinguished. Every one of them deserved to be treated seriously.
Chung Shen-soo sized him up.
The body in the Spirit World was the projection and manifestation of spirituality and spirit bodies. It might not be exactly the same as one's true appearance, but it could accurately reflect a person's heart.
From his point of view, this fellow's spirit body looked young and inexperienced, and he had the temperament of a noble. He was probably an elite disciple nurtured by a large family, but he clearly hadn't seen much of the world, and was too well protected.
"Your name?"
He asked casually.
"Grosse Victor, from the Nightingale family!" Gross quickly reported his name, but he was a little regretful. Damn it, the thinking of the spiritual world is still a little slow. I should have only reported the name of the Nightingale Family. It would have been enough to intimidate the outsiders. Why did I have to report my name?
'You can call me bartender!'
Chung Shen-soo smiled, feeling that this fellow was a little naive.
Or perhaps his spirituality was too strong, and his spirit projection had become a wily old fox?
"Preparing to advance? Do you want to do it together? "
"No, now isn't the time!"
Gross rejected solemnly, and subconsciously covered his mouth.
Damn it, the timing is a family secret. I can't say it … Si Sui, please forgive me …
However, the next moment, his pupils suddenly widened.
This was because he saw the young man with a black snake wrapped around his arm walk to the side of the crimson river, stretch his arms, and do a standard diving action before plunging down.
"Hey, hey … This is … the strongest tide!"
Gross stretched out his hand, but it was already too late.
He came to the edge of the crimson river and looked at the blood-red surface that the young man had jumped into. Realizing that not even a bubble appeared, he couldn't help but scream, "Is that a lunatic? This is the strongest tide … Although the crimson river looks very calm, the waves that originate from the soul can make even the strongest spirit body become incomparably tired … "
"Oh, so that's how it is?"
In the next moment, Chung Shen-soo's head popped out of the bloody water. He used a backstroke posture and kept rowing towards the other side while talking to Gross.
At the same time, he felt the black snake turn into a barrier that protected his entire body. It made it seem as if there was a layer of water droplets protecting his body, allowing him to move more freely in the water.
"Then, I'll be leaving first. See you on the other side!"
Chung Shen-soo waved his hand behind him and suddenly swung his arms. With the enhancement of the Herder's essence, his entire body was like a fish that sliced through the water surface. In an instant, he became a small black dot before completely disappearing.
"This crimson river is fake, right?
"Or is there something wrong with my pocket watch?
"No, no, the family wouldn't make a mistake. I'm just too careful! That's right … As a genius of the family, I have to have some confidence.
"It's just the third sign, how can it stop me? I, Gross, am going to become an 'Immortal'! "
Gross looked at the layers of protection on his body and suddenly felt boundless courage. He didn't care about the timing anymore and directly jumped into the crimson river, choosing to advance.
In the next moment, the endless smell of blood, endless madness, and endless corrosion surged over!
Crackle!
The layer of colorful light on Gross's body kept exploding, letting out a sorrowful cry.
"It can't be, right? Why was the bartender so relaxed just now? "
A trace of despair appeared on Gross's face.
And at this moment, he felt that in the vast and mighty crimson river in front of him, there was an invisible 'wave' crashing over.
It was not a crimson wave, but an attack that originated from the soul. It was similar to spiritual pressure, but it was more than a thousand times stronger.
Bang!
The invisible force hit Gross's body heavily. His vision went black, and he fainted. He fell to the bottom of the crimson river and was washed away by the bloody water …
…
Rumble!
Another invisible wave of spiritual pressure smashed onto Chung Shen-soo's body.
"Awesome! Awesome! "
Feeling that this spiritual pressure was like a hammer, constantly refining his spirituality and causing his soul to undergo a qualitative change, Chung Shen-soo couldn't help but feel refreshed both physically and mentally.
"It feels like this river isn't wide. Why does it seem like I can't see the end of it?"
After swimming for a while, he saw the white shore. He climbed up and felt the changes in his soul.
"Hmm, the 'Upgraded' is a qualitative change in the soul. In terms of the strength of the increase … The current me probably doesn't need to use the nameless technique. I just need to rely on my own spiritual pressure to crush those ordinary people who have drunk the cold blood, right?"
