Above all spirits

Chapter 19 Polar Star

"Power: Assimilation".

As Gu Yun inspected the handover of the monks, he found the best spot he had scouted earlier and placed his palm on the barrier.

Suddenly, the body gradually became translucent from the point of contact, eventually taking on a form consistent with the light blue barrier.

"Free tourist attraction check-in, Polar Starfield, check-in successful!"

There was no alarm response, nor were any defense mechanisms triggered.

The power of assimilation is terrifying.

If I were granted the power to counter surveillance or conceal secrets, I would surely become a master thief.

What a pity.

While the ability to conceal one's presence can be achieved through invisibility, it is a racial talent, not an authority. It can only be used sparingly when assimilating certain elements or creating barriers, for example.

However, once you change your appearance and assimilate into someone else's form, you can no longer use it.

Unless one can achieve the fourth stage of power efficiency, although the fourth stage and the first stage may be similar in meaning, the requirements are vastly different.

One option lets you cut the cake directly, while the other lets you make a cake with the exact same shape, but the fruit, cream, etc. inside need to be customized.

To complete this stage, one must first master the first two stages and truly understand the analysis and coverage of the assimilation power.

He has now been able to complete the initial stage of introspection, which is to attach his soul consciousness to his soul matter, but it is limited to a slow process. He cannot keep up with the pace of the process when exercising his powers, and he has no clue how.

He desperately needs guidance from a master who specializes in the study of creating new powers.

But what makes someone like me, with no background and only minor talent, capable of achieving this?

Gu Yun shook his head and sighed before flying towards the Celestial Star.

The primary objective at present is to use the teleportation array of Polar Star to travel to the Demon Realm, and then borrow the power of lowering one's rank to travel to the Alpha Dimension.

At the same time, Gu Yun felt that given his current situation, he probably didn't need to use a clone, because he was half-human and half-demon, and should be able to be accepted by the Alpha Dimension without needing to disguise himself; he only needed to maintain a stable state.

However, there is a very serious problem at present.

All of these require money, which is the universal currency of this world: Soul Crystals.

It is a crystal formed from the natural bursting of soul bubbles in the other side, where the soul matter, after seeping into the gamma dimension, has been left uncollected for a long time.

It can be formed naturally or synthesized artificially.

The so-called artificial synthesis is to transform the soul essence stored in one's body into soul crystals through a specialized processing facility.

However, very few people do this. Not only is there loss in the conversion process, but the absorption of soul essence from the soul crystal is also basically not perfect, resulting in a lot of losses in the process.

However, existence implies demand.

On the bright side, it's likely that powerful figures with overflowing spiritual energy are preparing backup, hidden resources.

On the other hand, there are many worse scenarios: gamblers risk everything to gamble away their lives, are forced into conversion due to heavy debts, and commit murder to steal souls, among others.

After all, this is a dog-eat-dog world, not the peaceful 21st century.

Even in the 21st century, similar phenomena are not uncommon.

However, Gu Yun did not feel gloomy or powerless about the future; in fact, he was somewhat excited.

All he needs to do is acquire the technology, device, or power to convert soul matter into soul crystals.

And items like spatial rings.

Then he would be the richest man in the gamma dimension.

After all, the other side is his home.

He can be a porter of nature.

However, the problem is that it's difficult to make the first pot of gold now. Because of the soul, the soul essence absorbed from the other shore will automatically be converted into golden soul essence, and I dare not use the golden soul essence to convert into soul crystals.

In addition, there's probably still a large amount of gray matter in my soul, so I can't go back to it anytime soon.

Difficult.

......

Upon seeing the pale yellow Polar Star, Gu Yun darted into the crowd.

Following the flow of people, we entered the Polar Star through the designated passage.

Is it no wonder that the realm of gods is indeed a divine place?

The city Gu Yun arrived at was the south gate of Jitian City, the main city of Jitian Star. After all, cross-domain teleportation arrays are usually located in the main cities of various star domains.

The city of Jitian is extremely large. Before the monk leading the way landed at the designated passage outside Jitian Star, Gu Yun had circled around Jitian Star and calculated that Jitian City should be one-fifth the size of Jitian Star.

The remaining forest area and sea area account for one-fifth and two-fifths respectively.

Finally, there are some scattered branches of the Celestial City.

Landing at the city gate, one can see two towering peaks reaching into the clouds in the distance. Between them, directly opposite the city gate, is a huge silver screen, which can be said to recreate the scene of a waterfall plunging three thousand feet.

Connecting the waterfall on the ground is a winding river that spans half of the city of Jitian, leading directly to the western sea.

The entire city of Jitian was also shrouded in a huge light blue barrier, which occasionally rippled with a water-like glow. It was probably a more powerful barrier than the one in the star field.

The city only has three entrances: east, west, and south. After all, the north is naturally protected by a giant peak, and the light blue barrier only leaves three gaps for entry and exit.

There were still monks in golden robes guarding the city gate, but there were no longer any young monks collecting incense money.

That's true. If they really start charging a second time, a fight will probably break out.

Too much bullying.

In the center of the city stands a huge golden Buddha statue, facing south. This must be the legendary Jitian Buddha.

Werner had told him that the Supreme Buddha was a veteran God-King level expert with unfathomable strength.

The entire city, and even the entire planet and star system, are named after it.

The God-King?

Gu Yun felt a slight unease even from the Buddha statue, as if the statue was staring at him.

After all, he got in for free, so he felt guilty.

In front of the Buddha statue is a huge square, which is densely packed with monks, estimated to be tens of thousands.

At this moment, all the monks were respectfully bowing with their palms together towards the Jitian Buddha statue in the center of the square.

"Gods worship gods?"

Gu Yun was taken aback when he saw the scene of worship in the square.

"The God King is to the God Servant as the God Servant is to the mortal. Although they do not have souls and thus do not have faith, they are still disciples under the protection of the Extreme Heaven Star Domain. It is always good to flatter them a few more times."

Werner's voice came from beside Gu Yun's ear.

That makes sense; the words may be crude, but the principle is sound.

Some of the people who had just arrived in the Polar Star Region were also a little surprised, but they soon understood.

What you're seeing is something that happens every day—the so-called pilgrimage.

After all, the Supreme Buddha is one of the giants of the Divine Realm.

"By the way, have you ever heard of the name Vairocana Buddha?"

"No, wait, this looks like the Buddha who suppressed the Monkey King in your world's legends, right? I've read about it in stories, but it probably doesn't really exist, or maybe it's not in this dimension."

"Hmm, it's okay. If you haven't heard of it, then it definitely doesn't exist."

After the exclamations, everyone dispersed to attend to their own business.

The young monk who had led the way also returned to the outside of Polar Star to reorganize and lead the next group of guests to Aurora Star.

Gradually, only Gu Yun remained standing in place.

The monks who were sweeping the road noticed Gu Yun, slowly approached, and bowed slightly.

"I take refuge in the Supreme Gods and Buddhas. Benefactor, it seems this is your first time visiting the Supreme Star. May I ask what kind of assistance you require?"
