We were supposed to be doing horror movie guides, but what the heck is this "mysterious resurre

Chapter 163 The confrontation ended in an instant, shocking the higher dimensions (6k)

"A challenger from our plane has advanced to the higher-dimensional God Space? Lu Ming? Isn't that the fourth-tier powerhouse we met in the rest area before?"

"When I saw it, it was already at level five..."

"Holy crap! What kind of godlike speed is that?!"

"..."

the other side.

In the higher-dimensional God's space.

Lu Ming gradually regained consciousness, and the scene before him was similar to that he had been in the lower-dimensional main god space.

However, upon closer inspection, one will find that the two are actually different in detail.

At the center of the world remains a broken, enormous sphere of light, surrounded by numerous tiny specks of light. Just a glance at it can cause an inexplicable dizziness.

Lu Ming originally thought he needed to explore the rules here himself and was just about to take action when a lot of densely packed small characters appeared on the semi-transparent panel in front of him.

These are introductions to the specific rules of the higher-dimensional God Space.

"Just as I thought... Here, the main god will not arbitrarily interfere in the disputes between challengers. Of course, the main god only takes a wait-and-see attitude towards the fight and has no intention of encouraging it."

"In addition, unlike the lower-dimensional space, there is no rest area here, but there is a main urban area."

"Even if you don't challenge horror movies, you won't be forced into dungeons in a short time. You can even imagine what kind of house you want to live in without spending any points."

In addition, there were some more detailed rules, which were also displayed on the semi-transparent panel in front of Lu Ming.

Lu Ming discovered that the so-called higher-dimensional God Space was much more "humanized" than the lower-dimensional space.

Even if one loses the will to strive, one can still lie low here for a while...

However, this situation is very rare.

Challengers who lack strong willpower will find it very difficult to become sixth-tier challengers and advance from the lower-dimensional main god space to the higher-dimensional main god space.

In other words, the challengers gathered here are all elites who have successfully navigated the terrifying beginner village.

As Lu Ming pondered this, he closed his eyes.

He tried to visualize what a room would look like in his mind.

When Lu Ming opened his eyes again, there was indeed a room in the darkness.

Pushing open the door, he found the familiar layout and furnishings, exactly as Lu Ming had imagined.

The ordinary room caused Lu Ming's expression to change slightly, and a very familiar feeling rose in his heart.

The room was designed exactly as Lu Ming had before he came to the God Space.

Lu Ming did not use any supernatural abilities during this process, nor did he need to spend any points, which was quite amazing.

After resting alone in the room for a while, Lu Ming left the room, intending to take another trip to the main city of the High Dimension God Space.

Arriving before a medium-sized golden sphere of light, Lu Ming reached out and touched it.

A feeling of weightlessness followed.

It felt exactly the same as when entering the instance.

It felt as if I had fallen into endless darkness.

When Lu Ming opened his eyes again, he found himself standing on a dimly lit street.

Judging from the surrounding environment, this is a very ordinary modern city, but the environment is very dirty and messy, with man-made damage in many places, and a stench from a mixture of many things permeating the air.

Although Lu Ming was puzzled, he ignored these details and walked along the street for a while before he saw the figures of the other challengers.

Four challengers stood on the street. They did not hide their challenger ranks; they were all sixth-rank.

The four of them were discussing something together.

Seeing Lu Ming approach, one of the young men in sportswear's eyes lit up and he quickly called out, "Brother, come here for a second, I need to talk to you about something."

Lu Ming frowned, somewhat displeased.

The man's tone and attitude unconsciously carried a commanding air, probably because he had always had a smooth life and hadn't experienced much hardship in life.

Lu Ming stood still, without moving forward.

"Ok?"

The young man paused for a moment, then seemed to understand something and laughed, "So you're a newbie? You haven't been promoted here long, have you? It's okay if you don't know the rules, I'll explain them to you properly."

Hearing this person say this, and seeing that no one around had reacted yet, Lu Ming's heart stirred slightly. He thought to himself, "Don't they know the rules? Didn't the main god panel explain most of these things when you were promoted?"

"Could it be that these extra details are only displayed on my panel, and not on the other challengers' panels? Just like the extra quests that only I can see during dungeons..."

Although he was puzzled, Lu Ming showed nothing on his face.

He said calmly, "What rules? I am indeed new here, you can tell me."

The young man first introduced himself, saying that his name was Wang Lin and that he was considered a veteran here.

Then, Wang Lin added, "This place is different from the low-dimensional main god space you were in before. It's full of experts, so you have to be cautious and humble. Moreover, the difficulty of the dungeons is generally high, making it even more difficult to advance in rank."

"Many newbies like you know nothing, rush in without even finding teammates before entering the dungeon, and the final result... tsk tsk, it's a disaster."

Wang Lin described these events vividly, as if he had witnessed them firsthand.

But in reality, Lu Ming was secretly sneering.

As expected, regular challengers won't see any rule prompts on the panel.

Wang Lin thought Lu Mingzhen was a clueless newbie, so he didn't mention any of the key points and just picked out some scares. He wondered what Lu Mingzhen's intentions were.

Lu Ming countered, "So what do you think I should do?"

This question seemed to have hit the nail on the head. Wang Lin chuckled and said, "It's very simple. You can go into a dungeon with us big brothers. We're just one short of a guy. As long as you follow our orders, you'll be living the high life!"

For most challengers, Wang Lin's demands were hard to refuse.

The fixed points reward calculated based on contribution after clearing a dungeon is fine, but don't even think about getting rewards that can be flexibly distributed like supernatural items; you definitely won't get them.

Even knowing that joining a team would mean being exploited at every turn, teaming up with Wang Lin was undoubtedly the only option compared to having no teammates at all and having to challenge high-difficulty dungeons alone in a new environment.

Wang Lin and the other three were waiting for Lu Ming's answer.

Lu Ming's expression remained indifferent, showing no significant emotional fluctuations. He shook his head and said, "I have my own plans, so I won't team up with you."

This isn't just a polite remark.

Lu Ming's plan was to explore the higher-dimensional God Space and see if he could return to the mysterious resurrection world.

As for challenging the horror movie dungeon, we'll talk about that when we return to the main god space next time.

Wang Lin's expression changed upon hearing this, clearly not expecting that Lu Ming, a newcomer, would refuse his invitation.

After his expression changed several times, he finally smiled kindly and said, "Haha, even if we don't cooperate, we can still be friends. But if I may ask, do you know anyone else in the higher dimensions? Have they already invited you?"

"No."

"So you're absolutely confident that you're planning to solo a horror movie dungeon all by yourself?"

This guy kept asking all sorts of questions, which annoyed Lu Ming. He said coldly, "I'm not considering challenging the dungeon for now."

After that, he turned around and left.

Lu Ming's original plan was to return to the mysterious world of revival, but of course, there was no need to explain so much to these people.

As a result, in the eyes of the four, Lu Ming became the kind of guy who, after advancing to a high-level challenger, became complacent and planned to give up and lie down.

After asking the two questions, Wang Lin dropped the stiff smile from his face.

A putrid stench emanated from him, and his flesh was rotting at a visible rate. He no longer looked like a normal person; he had become a real ghost.

Wang Lin, as a sixth-order challenger, has been in the high-dimensional main god space for so long.

Although he wasn't doing very well, and could only be considered at the bottom, he had at least accumulated enough points to exchange for a sixth-tier high-level ability.

A sixth-tier ability is absolutely overwhelming compared to a fifth-tier ability.

This is beyond doubt.

Wang Lin transformed himself into a ghost, his rotting flesh twitching. Gone was his previous "kind" smile; he roared, "No power, no background, no strength? Then I'm relieved! You're really naive, daring to blurt out anything... You dismissively rejected my invitation; are you looking down on me?!"

The commotion attracted the attention of the challengers who were still nearby.

However, everyone, including Wang Lin's three teammates, just watched with a spectator's mentality as Wang Lin attacked Lu Ming.

Seeing this, Lu Ming thought to himself, "Has his mentality become a bit twisted because he's been challenging horror movie-style dungeons for years and sees no hope of getting ahead, unable to even advance to the seventh rank?"

"Like some ghost tamers who have been severely corrupted by the supernatural during the mysterious revival, their minds are not quite normal. They are capricious and will fight at the slightest displeasure. This is perfectly normal."

"However, this is not a reason to attack me."

Lu Ming's face suddenly contorted in a bizarre arc, emitting an extremely chilling laugh.

The hazy, ghostly realm extended outwards, enveloping Wang Lin's entire body and causing him and a small area around him to lose their original colors, turning into a dull gray.

This is a supernatural attack method devised by Lu Mingxin.

Use ghost paintings and ghost domains to define a certain area, then use ghost wails and ghost laughter, or simply combine the two.

The advantage of doing this is that when friendly units are present, area-of-effect supernatural attacks such as ghost cries and ghost laughs will not accidentally harm teammates.

Furthermore, once the range is restricted, the ghostly cries and laughter echo within a certain space, and the speed at which the terror intensifies also increases.

"Perfect opportunity to test the strength of a sixth-tier high-level ability..."

To be honest, although Lu Ming entered the high-dimensional main god space, he didn't have much awe for the so-called high-level challengers.

The pursuit of promotion is not about going to a higher level to become a low-level individual and be oppressed.

Lu Ming's sole purpose was to learn more about the truth of the God Space and to reach the legendary eighth-tier challenger as soon as possible, thus completely clearing the God Space.

···········
Everyone waited on the sidelines for the outcome of the confrontation between Lu Ming and Wang Lin.

In their view, the outcome of the confrontation was not very suspenseful, as Lu Ming had only just advanced to the sixth rank and would most likely not have enough time to exchange for new high-rank abilities.

Moreover, even if he were aware of the need to redeem in advance, he wouldn't have enough points.

A sixth-tier fighter against a fifth-tier fighter—Wang Lin is undoubtedly bullying him.

If Lu Ming, a newcomer, wasn't instantly killed by Wang Lin, it would mean he had considerable potential, and the challengers watching from the sidelines would likely consider recruiting him into their teams.

If I die immediately...
There's not much to say about that. "What's with that expression? Is he smiling?"

"Why is this guy's laughter completely silent? Could he have been scared out of his wits? Haha."

Immediately, someone glanced disdainfully at the person who said this and sneered, "It's hard to say whether he's the fool or you are. None of those who have been promoted to this level are simple people. I suspect that this newcomer's killing ability is related to his laughter. The reason we can't hear the sound is because we are not his target. If we could hear it... you would probably already be a cold corpse."

"Heh, what nonsense are you spouting? You think I'd be killed by a newbie who just joined the team?"

No sooner had the man finished speaking than Wang Lin, who was not far from Lu Ming, collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Wang Lin's rotting skin exuded a chilling aura, indicating that he had been killed instantly.

"???"

"what's the situation?"

How did Wang Lin die?

The faces of the challengers watching, especially Wang Lin's three teammates, all changed drastically.

This scene is truly unbelievable.

The terrifying supernatural confrontation was completed in an instant.

However, the one who died was not Lu Ming, the newcomer everyone had expected, but Wang Lin, who had mastered sixth-order abilities.

Wang Lin is dead, but the attack he launched using his sixth-tier ability is not over yet. The "ghost" that replaced his body is still attacking Lu Ming.

The foul-smelling corpse fluid flowed from the constantly expanding and contracting holes on Wang Lin's body surface, and this corpse fluid seemed to have eyes, crawling towards Lu Ming.

Temporary avoidance is useless; no matter where you hide, the corpse fluid will chase after you.

Moreover, the speed at which they catch up will increase.

Anything that comes into contact with the fluids of the corpse will be corroded and rotted.

"Is this the attack method of a sixth-tier ability?"

Lu Ming used the Ghost Painting Ghost Domain again to send away the corpse water flowing on the ground.

He defused the attack so easily.

But the next moment, Lu Ming's expression changed.

"Oh?"

Wang Lin's attack was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

Besides the corrosive, decaying fluids that come into contact with Wang Lin's body, the strange odor emanating from the fluids also poses a significant threat.

As soon as you smell this foul stench of decay, the stench will seep into your consciousness.

Ordinary people would undoubtedly be killed instantly.

Even challengers with strong mental fortitude will have their consciousness gradually corroded by the stench of corpses, turning them into mentally unstable idiots.

"This is the difference between a fifth-tier challenger and a sixth-tier challenger."

"Attacks can be launched simultaneously on both the physical and mental levels. If one is not careful, even a strong challenger will be defeated."

Whoohoo!

The scraping sound of the steel claws against the wall rang out, harsh and dry, extremely unpleasant to hear, but it was precisely this harsh scraping sound that protected Lu Ming's consciousness.

The stench of the corpse was blocked by Freddy's supernatural powers and did not cause any harm to Lu Ming.

The whole process happened in a very short instant, and from the outside, Lu Ming was not affected at all; he just stood there with a cold expression and did not move.

After Wang Lin died, his body decomposed rapidly. To prevent him from undergoing further transformation into a zombie, Lu Ming used his Ghost Domain to send his body to an unknown location.

"..."

The scene was deathly silent.

Those here are all Tier 6 challengers at the bottom level. For many of them, it is no longer possible to advance further and become Tier 7 challengers.

Therefore, there are many people like Wang Lin.

They are psychologically twisted and only bully the weak and fear the strong.

The challengers who were standing to one side quietly retreated, afraid of being caught in the crossfire.

In particular, Wang Lin's three teammates had uncertain expressions. They were unsure of Lu Ming's attitude towards them and whether they needed to unite and strike first.

He's gone...

Suddenly, someone pointed to where Lu Ming was.

There was nothing there, absolutely nothing.

"Is this guy really a newbie? Are you sure it's not one of those big shots from above putting on an act to mess with us?"

"You know what, it's actually quite possible..."

Even if Wang Lin is considered a piece of trash among the sixth-tier challengers, none of the challengers present dared to kill him instantly.

The street still smelled of corpses.

Wang Lin's three teammates were finally relieved.

Lu Ming did not hold a grudge against them.

After all, with the three of them working together, Lu Ming might not fare well.

Just as they were thinking this, a rapid, piercing telephone rang.

"What the hell?"

In the higher-dimensional God Space, challengers can communicate remotely through a panel.

Who still uses a telephone?
To be honest, in this place, even if a phone call gets through, it's not because of the signal.

Not to mention that the three of them together couldn't even afford a single phone.

One of them took out the phone that had been ringing and vibrating incessantly.

It's a style and model I've never seen before; it might have been generated directly by the main god, which isn't surprising.

The key point is that the caller's name was actually his own: Hu Fang.

The first call was disconnected shortly after it came in, then the second, the third, the fourth, the fifth...
"Pretend to be a ghost."

Hu Fang was also seething with anger, so he gritted his teeth and answered the last call.

···········
the other side.

As soon as Lu Ming left the main city of the high-dimensional god space, he sensed the death curse of the ghost call, which killed three of Wang Lin's teammates.

With the five deadly curses stacked upon each other, these low-level sixth-tier challengers had no chance of survival.

"This guy's a real oddball. Most people would hang up in a heartbeat, but he actually chose to answer the phone..."

"But it's not a big problem. The phone is just a vehicle for triggering the death curse. No matter what they choose, the moment the phone rings, these three guys will already be cold corpses."

After casually exchanging blows with a sixth-tier challenger in the main city, Lu Ming became interested in a certain question.

What conditions need to be met to advance from the sixth rank to the seventh rank?
Lu Ming originally thought that it would be the same as the previous promotions, where he just needed to accumulate points.

However, the challengers stuck at the sixth rank in the main city are not weak. Even if they only rely on the number of runs of the five-star difficulty horror movie dungeon, it is impossible for them to be so dismal.

In other words, advancing to the seventh-tier challenger level may require meeting some other conditions.

What are all the requirements for advancing from a Tier 6 Challenger to a Tier 7 Challenger?

If Lu Ming has any questions about the rules of higher dimensions, he can directly ask the Main God. As long as he tries to communicate with the Main God using his thoughts, the corresponding answer will appear on the panel.

Of course, the Supreme God doesn't answer every question.

If Lu Ming asks it a question like "What are the conditions for passing through the God's Space?", the God will pretend to be dead.

A semi-transparent panel appeared in front of Lu Ming, with small characters appearing on it.

"Complete three horror movie dungeons of seven-star difficulty, one of which must be a team arena dungeon, and you can be promoted to a seventh-tier challenger."

Lu Ming's expression shifted slightly.

"The requirements are indeed not simply about accumulating points."

"Upon reaching the seventh rank, a cataclysmic change will likely occur, and only then will we be able to truly understand the secrets behind this God's Space..."

Lu Ming originally thought that the transition from the fifth to the sixth rank was a significant dividing line.

However, it now appears that the gap between the fifth and sixth orders is far less significant than the gap between the sixth and seventh orders.

In the "A Nightmare on Elm Street" instance, the task of entering a dream world and killing Freddy Krueger is practically impossible for someone unfamiliar with the storyline.

This can only be defined as a six-star difficulty horror movie dungeon.

As for the seven-star difficulty horror movie dungeon...
Lu Ming has only ever seen one Ju-on so far.

The terror of Kayako needs no further explanation.

If it truly is the conceptual entity we imagine, a collection of incantations, it is similar to an idealistic being, capable of ignoring time and space, and superimposing multiple fatal curses.

Even Lu Ming in his current state wouldn't be confident of winning.

"In that case, I can understand why I've only encountered sixth-tier challengers in the main city... It would be rare to see a seventh-tier challenger."

Lu Ming temporarily put aside these miscellaneous thoughts.

He added the 10 attribute points he obtained from clearing the dungeon [Curse] to his mental power.

[Mental Strength: 89] → [Mental Strength: 99]

His mental strength was enhanced once again, and he was getting closer and closer to that critical point.

"Maybe next time we can achieve a qualitative change from a quantitative one."

"As for exchanging points for sixth-tier abilities, there's no rush. I only have 30540 points. If I can't exchange for a top-tier sixth-tier ability, I'll just be anxious... It's better to wait until next time."

After making these arrangements, Lu Ming followed his instincts and arrived at the old place, ready to return to the mysterious world of revival.
