Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 377: The Top of the List Changes
The sixth level not only has one trial with the Taoist ghost, but also one at the mountainside and one at the top of the mountain. Only after passing all three times can Chen Mu enter the next level.

However, with Chen Mu's current level of cultivation, it is easy to break through this level.

It can even be said that among the first eight levels he now knows, there is no part that he finds difficult.

On the mountainside was a huge man with a horse face and a human body, wearing armor. He was two meters tall and looked like a demon.

When Chen Mu approached, he did not treat him with tea like a Taoist ghost, but attacked him directly with a heavy sword in hand.

Although he and Chen Mu were both in the late stage of foundation building, their strengths were not comparable. Before he could strike a few swords, he was smashed to pieces by Chen Mu with the Chongxu Huashan Seal, contributing most of his own essence.

The Skeleton Ghost also took five days to absorb all the remaining ghosts and achieved the second level!
Chen Mu picked up the heavy sword dropped by the ghost and probed his spiritual sense into it.

The heavy sword is not an illusion, but a genuine low-grade spiritual weapon!

It also contains a body-refining technique, which should have been practiced by this ghost during his lifetime.

Although Chen Mu looked down on it, it was better than nothing and could be used as a resource to exchange for other things in the future.

As for the last trial at the top of the mountain, it was a little more difficult.

It's not that the ghost's realm has risen, but that the means of attack has changed suddenly, directly acting on the cultivator's soul!

Fortunately, Chen Muxiu had the art of shaking the soul, and his soul was far superior to that of cultivators of the same level, so he was able to kill the ghost without any danger.

There is surprise and there is joy. Most of the essence contributed by the ghost this time was divided into two batches. One was devoured by its own ghost, and the other was absorbed by Chen Mu.

Feeling the slightly increased power of his spirit, Chen Mu kept clicking his tongue. It was rare to find the essence of a ghost that could enhance the spirit.

If it weren't for the secret record's reminder, he would have subconsciously let the ghosts devour them all...

At this point, there are no more obstacles at the sixth level!

Not only did it not hinder Chen Mu, it also brought him great benefits.

Not to mention the benefits itself, just breaking through three second-level ghosts has saved a lot of effort.

"However, the speed at which the ghost's cultivation level improves is so fast. I'm afraid there must be other reasons that I don't know."

Chen Mu's eyes moved as he looked back at the ten ghosts behind him.

The first three are particularly outstanding and extremely powerful.

They are the Yaksha ghost, the Skeleton ghost, and the demon ghost that he restrained in the third level.

The devil's ghost has no body, only a huge head, and underneath is an illusory soul, which is very scary.

It has such a special appearance and outstanding potential. It is now second only to the Yaksha Ghost and is even stronger than the Skeleton.

Otherwise, Chen Mu would not have chosen to advance it.

"Perhaps these ghosts once existed, but eventually died and became the Soul Ancestor's means of fighting the enemy. Even if the Soul Ancestor's lineage dies, their spirits will remain here forever..."

Chen Mu seemed to be thinking about something. After thinking about it, he took out the soul flag, summoned the black fog, and headed to the seventh level.

At the same time, near the towering stone pillars outside, the sky was clear and the breeze was gentle.

Hundreds of monks were chatting in groups of three or five, and their expressions often revealed envy and jealousy of those at the top of the list.

"Shh!"

Suddenly there was a loud noise, like a sharp sword sweeping across the sky, cutting through the curtain of mountains and rivers.

"what happened?"

Everyone was startled and the noise became even louder.

"Look!"

"What, where are you looking?"

After a few words, all the cultivators looked at the stone pillar that symbolized the Earth List.

The first place on the Earth List emitted a dazzling light. As everyone was terrified, even the three words "Fang Yuan" suddenly trembled slightly, as if they were becoming unstable!

"Oh no, it can't be..." Just as the cultivators had this thought, they saw Lian Fangyuan's name suddenly drop down and landed at the second place on the Earth List.

The name of the former Golden Spearman Yu Wenshan suddenly rose to the top of the list!

"Not good! Master Lian was defeated!"

In an instant, hundreds of monks were shouting and cursing, worrying, and complaining were heard everywhere!
It’s a pity that the stone pillars on the ground gradually returned to calm, and no miracle happened as they wished.

The top of the local list, the Golden Spear Man Yu Wenshan!
A few words were firmly nailed on it, constantly washing over the minds of the Beiyuan group of practitioners.

But before they could react, changes occurred in the valley again!
However, the thick fog quietly dissipated a lot, and under the dim light, countless blurry images appeared.

The next moment, everyone widened their eyes, looking at the scene in front of them in disbelief.

"This...is this the situation of them breaking through the checkpoint?"

"Why did it suddenly appear?"

"However, everything is blurry and I can't see the faces of the people in it..."

For a moment, everyone looked at each other, not knowing why such a change had occurred.

In addition to being shocked, some clever people quickly reported the changes to their elders who stayed behind.

In a short time, thousands of cultivators gathered here, including several Jindan Zhenren.

"Even Fangyuan was defeated, and my Beiyuan was actually trampled under the feet of the Western Desert monks!"

"Look at the picture at the top. Is that the Western Desert monk Yu Wenshan?"

Everyone turned their heads to look, and saw a scene that was obviously much larger than the others. A blurry figure was standing in the air, with thousands of ghosts roaring ferociously behind him. Following the front was a green-faced ghost general who was a hundred feet tall, charging into the battle, as if they were attacking something.

"It's him! Commanding thousands of ghosts, only a third-rank ghost general has such power!"

"Such a formidable opponent... Alas, no wonder Master Lian was defeated."

.......
Among the Jindan Zhenren who stayed behind, the representative of Xuantian Sect had a grim expression and stared at the scene for a long time without saying a word.

"Fellow Daoist Lingkong, seeing this strange phenomenon, I'm afraid this inheritance is nearing its end!"

"Indeed, the Western Desert monk defeated Lian Fangyuan and was able to break through and enter the seventeenth level... This should be one of the main reasons for the changes here."

"I just wonder how many levels there are in this trial. Can I, a monk from Beiyuan, still catch up?"

“It’s hard to say…”

Several Jindan Zhenren spoke in turn, shaking their heads and looking very pessimistic.

"Yu Wenshan is indeed a genius. Even when I was young, I couldn't compare to him... How could the Western Desert be so lucky to produce such a genius?"

"Do you want……"

"No, there are also Divine Transformation cultivators in the Western Desert. If we rashly kill his genius, it might cause trouble."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Tian Zong Zhenren finally spoke: "Everyone, don't worry. Lian Shijie is my sect's disciple. His defeat doesn't mean anything. When we meet again, he will definitely be able to avenge his previous defeat!"

"I hope so..."

Chen Mu was naturally unaware of the changes in the outside world. He was busy fighting against the ghosts in the seventh level.

As the sword flashed, the enemy's ghosts shattered and turned into most of the essence floating in the air.

Killing a ghost of the same level with one sword would surely cause a stir among others if they saw it.

However, the images presented here were ranked at the end of the outside world. Most people looked at the images at the front of the Earth List, guessing the identity of the blurry figure, and few people observed him.

The seventh level is similar to the sixth level, both of which involve gaining benefits from enemy ghosts.

With everything going smoothly, Chen Mu even started to suspect that this trial wasn't about selecting the right person to inherit the legacy, but rather about training the next generation...
