The Great Ruler wanted to lie down but was thrown into the Spirit Road.

Wen Qingxuan's phoenix eyes held a murderous aura, her jade hands tightly gripping a golden spear, and her red dress beneath her armor encasing her increasingly exquisite figure, making her appear like a sacred and supreme female warrior.

That arrogant disdain for everything, displaying an attitude of suppressing everything, an invisible majesty surrounding him, makes people feel ashamed and inferior, unable to feel any disrespect, and simply unable to look him in the eye.

Several men raised their sticks and tried to attack her, but she swept them across with her long spear, cracking the sticks and leaving their hands bloodshot.

Seeing the terrifying force that stirred up the internal energy, the group felt their scalps tingle.

"How can the difference be so huge!"

Some people were filled with shock and anger, their eyes wide with disbelief.

They were considered the cream of the crop, the best in their original academy, but in Wen Qingxuan's hands, they were no different from ordinary people.

The muddy feeling of being locked in by that aura made their hands and feet weak as if weighed down by a thousand pounds. Even if they wanted to raise their sticks again, it would be like a mayfly trying to shake a tree, overestimating their own strength.

"You stinking woman!"

The men gritted their teeth, their last vestiges of pride driving them to roar in fury.

Hearing their dissatisfaction, Wen Qingxuan's lips curled slightly, revealing a disdainful smile. "Ha, that's all?"

Is this the so-called chosen one of heaven in Linglu? After a few moves, he didn't even have the confidence to lift the stick anymore.

She wasted no more time, her spear swirling, golden spear shadows slicing through the air with a piercing whistling sound, as she pointed and killed the men amidst their fearful expressions.

They tried to resist, but were repelled by that extraordinary power and skill, with blood spurting out and screams echoing through the air.

In the end, she left behind a trail of people lying in agony amidst the rain of peach blossoms, while she herself walked out of the battlefield with elegance and confidence, as if she had never experienced a battle.

Looking at Wen Qingxuan's expressionless face, Yun Mo licked his lips, thinking to himself, "How could a genius from a top-tier power in the Great Thousand World end up training in this small spiritual path?"

……

"Brother Yun, these are their tokens. Those who tried to resist were killed by us." Tan Feng took more than a dozen tokens and came to Yun Mo and Wen Qingxuan.

Yun Mo accepted the tokens, feeling somewhat curious.

These blood-red tokens were made of a very special material; even with all his strength, he couldn't crush them.

"With these tokens, how high can you improve?" Wen Qingxuan asked from beside him.

"promote?"

"Hmm?" Now it was Wen Qingxuan who was puzzled, and the person in front of her actually looked blank.

"When I came to the Spirit Road, I didn't come through the Mirror of Judgment of the Five Great Academies, but through the teleportation array of my own academy. I learned about these tokens from Tan Feng and the others. It seems that they are needed for the Spirit Road initiation."

Wen Qingxuan was even more confused. "You mean, you didn't have a token in the first place? And you don't have one now?"

"Well, we've taken their tokens now, but I still don't quite understand. Tan Feng and the others didn't explain it clearly. Could you explain the token's function in detail?" Yun Mo didn't mind and sat under a peach tree to study it carefully.

Wen Qingxuan raised an eyebrow. Was this Yun Mo really here for training? How come he didn't know anything? She slowly said, "Tokens can be used to store items, and they can also be used to communicate with your mind and exchange items. That's how I got the spear. The long sticks these people are holding must have been obtained by exchanging the Nine-Leaf Fruit Tree from before."

"Huh? You got that spear from the tokens?" Yun Mo was completely confused.

"Yes, there used to be two nine-leaf fruit trees. I happened to be the first one there and traded one of them for my golden spear."

"No! You don't have a token, so where did you get the soft sword in your hand and the weapons of those two henchmen?" Wen Qingxuan suddenly remembered that Yun Mo didn't have a token, so where did he get his soft sword?

"Uh..." Yun Mo showed the storage ring on her finger, "I took it out of there."

"The Spiritual Path has no spiritual energy, yet you can still use your storage ring? You were at the Divine Soul Realm before you came in!" Wen Qingxuan's eyes widened slightly. You, a Divine Soul Realm person, came to the Spiritual Path for trials? Is there something wrong with you? No wonder I was at a disadvantage when I fought him.

"It's not the Divine Soul Realm, it's just that my divine soul broke through to the strength of the Divine Soul Realm last night, which is why I can use the storage ring." Yun Mo cursed the old man from the academy in his heart. He told me he didn't want to come to this Spiritual Road.

"Then you must be at least at the Spirit Wheel Realm or higher. Why aren't you cultivating? Why are you running off to the Spirit Road?"

Yun Mo rolled her eyes and thought to herself, "You, a member of a top power in the Great Thousand World, have also come to Linglu."

Shaking his head, Yun Mo handed her several tokens and asked again, "What does this token have to do with the initiation?"

Wen Qingxuan took the token and demonstrated how to fuse them. "These tokens are divided into nine qualities. Each quality corresponds to the level of spiritual energy infusion at the end of the Spiritual Path. To improve the quality of a token, you need to fuse other people's tokens. The more tokens you fuse, the better the quality will be. This is one of the reasons why the Spiritual Path is so cruel."

As for communicating with the token to exchange for weapons or enhance physical strength, one needs to plunder spirit points. Spirit points can be obtained by killing spirit beasts or by exchanging rare and precious materials.

Yun Mo touched his nose. Now he finally understood why people said the Spirit Road was so cruel. So that's what it meant.

If you want to improve, you can only rely on the tokens in other people's hands. But everyone who comes here thinks they are the chosen ones, so how could they possibly give their tokens to others?

It's called Linglu, but in essence it's probably a breeding ground for Gu poison from the Five Great Courtyards, right?

As he thought about it, he cursed Qing Yilun in his heart again: The Five Great Academies must have told them these things, but they didn't pass them on to me at all!

Seeing Wen Qingxuan hand over the several tokens that had been fused together, Yun Mo said, "Here, take this one. I still have six tokens. What quality level will they reach after fusion?"

"There are nine points of light on this, and three of them are lit up, which naturally indicates the third stage of quality. If you use this to reach the end, you will naturally receive the third-level initiation spiritual energy."

"I see... How about we work together?" Yun Mo thought for a moment and said.

Since we've already partnered with Wen Qingxuan, why not continue the partnership to the end?

Following her would be safe and provide free henchmen. With their combined strength, they could easily obtain the ninth-level initiation qualification, if not sweep across the entire Spiritual Path.

"Cooperation?" Wen Qingxuan frowned slightly. With her pride, she would fight her way to the finish line. What cooperation was needed? The brief alliance just now was only to get rid of these ignorant fools as soon as possible.

If given enough time, she is confident that she can defeat these people one by one.

"My old man told me that the Spirit Road was originally formed from a small piece of broken continent, and was later controlled by the Five Great Academies. There are many opportunities and relics here. Our goal should be these things, not the so-called end of the Spirit Road. It would be too boring to just be interested in those initiations at the end of the Spirit Road. Judging from your background, you shouldn't care about these initiations, right?" Yun Mo said coaxingly.

"Oh? My background?" A slight look of surprise flashed in Wen Qingxuan's eyes. This Yun Mo knew about her background.

Sensing the coldness emanating from her, Yun Mo remained unfazed. "Although I don't know your background, I can tell from your demeanor that you come from no ordinary family."

"Heh, tell me what you think. If your analysis makes sense, then we can cooperate." Wen Qingxuan gave a faint smile.

Yun Mo looked her up and down, smiled, and said, "You are very arrogant. You don't take anyone on the Spiritual Road seriously. When you were guarding the Nine-Leaf Fruit Tree, you only sent people to fight you. Even the Spiritual Road Initiation you just mentioned didn't bother you at all. If you were a member of a small family, you wouldn't be so calm."

Besides, even though I'm stronger than you, you've never seemed to give me a second glance. Tsk, what a waste of my handsome face. You don't actually like men, you just like women, do you?

"You call yourself handsome?" Wen Qingxuan's eyes flashed when she heard the last sentence, and she retorted to Yun Mo with a disdainful tone, "What you said makes some sense. Coming to the Spiritual Road just for that so-called initiation is indeed a bit boring. Let's cooperate."

"Alright!" Yun Mo smiled, extended his hand, and said, "Then let's shake hands. Happy to cooperate!"

"Hmph, get lost!" Wen Qingxuan glared at Yun Mo with her phoenix eyes, then turned and headed towards the turbulent current not far away.

Yun Mo touched his nose. He thought the junior girls in his own academy were still the cutest, calling him "senior" in soft, gentle voices.

"Brother Yun, we want to follow you too." Tan Feng ignored Tan Yin's shoving and said to Yun Mo.

Now that they've seen Yun Mo's strength, they're willing to do anything to have such a powerful backer!

Yun Mo saw through his thoughts and shook her head, saying, "You have to walk your own path to see results."

This is your token, formed by the fusion of two pieces. It means you have already obtained the qualification for the second stage of initiation. Whether you go directly to the end of the spiritual path is up to you.

"If you follow me, you won't gain any experience; on the contrary, it will be very dangerous. Then there's no point in you coming to the Spiritual Path."

Tan Yin stopped Tan Feng, who was about to say something, and smiled at Yun Mo, "Alright then, Brother Yun, let's train on our own. See you at the end of the Spirit Road."

"What are you doing? I want to ask you some more questions."

"What's the point of asking? Can't you see Brother Yun is a little dissatisfied? You don't know what's good for you."

"You don't know anything. What I meant was that we should start an alliance, and when Brother Yun needs people, we'll have everyone in the alliance attack together."

"Tch, I've lived with you for over a decade, and you're just spouting nonsense. Do you think I don't understand...?"

The voice grew fainter and fainter, and the two lackeys disappeared from sight.

Yun Mo shrugged and headed towards Wen Qingxuan; he needed to cling to her leg.

With her by my side, as long as nothing unexpected happens, the danger level of the spiritual path will be greatly reduced. When we safely reach the end and receive the ninth stage of spiritual energy infusion, it will be a sure-fire deal.
