Eerie World

"Thanks!"

Lin Mu expressed his gratitude.

Ji Xi waved his hand. "There's no need to be so polite. You're just lacking in strength right now, but I believe that you will definitely become a Giant in the future. At that time, I might even need to rely on you!"

Lin Mu had a slight smile on his face; he knew that Ji Xi was just being polite.

Ji Xi is Eighth-Order Martial Artist.

Looking at the entire human society, martial artists with Eighth Order strength are extremely rare.

Moreover, Ji Xi famous very early.

It is said that at his peak, he possessed the power to fight against Ninth Stage Martial Artist.

He must be an unparalleled genius.

Such a person may have opportunities to rely on you in the future, but they will absolutely not need to depend on yourself.

Because he himself was a Giant in his own right.

"The principal is joking!"

Ji Xi dismissed it. "Get ready, let's go!"

Lin Mu nodded slightly.

His figure walked outside.

For some reason, he felt like he was dreaming.

I have grown to this point without even realizing it.

Even the principal has to give him some face.

When he reaches the Sixth Order or Seventh Order.

The treatment they receive will only get better.

"It's still not enough. There are even stronger geniuses in the Divine Martial Academy. Compared to them, I still have a gap to close!"

Lin Mu thought to himself.

Perhaps in terms of talent, he may not be any less talented than those people.

However, his family background and social standing remain his Achilles' heel.

"After the Hundred Academy Competition is over, I'll go home for a visit!" Lin Mu thought to himself.

He was so engrossed in cultivation that he rarely paid attention to his father's movements.

However, he also called the other side and asked the Vast Martial Hall to take care of his father.

With the power of the Vast Martial Hall, they are certainly capable of protecting their father.

Keep in mind, he has an SS-grade Contract.

They have a place in the Vast Martial Hall.

Back at his residence, Lin Mu looked around, packed a few things, and then left.

Although Lin Mu also wanted to explore the school and learn more about the college.

However, he is pressed for time and doesn't want to waste any more.

The Demon realm is aware of his potential and will inevitably take action.

He used to be the Demon King!

I wonder what kind of beings they will send next.

Arrive at the outer perimeter of the Demon Cloud Tower.

Lin Mu and Ji Xi walked inside.

Because he has sufficient resources, he naturally does not need to pay any fees.

So we went straight to the Second Floor.

Entering the Second Floor, one finds an extremely mysterious world.

Compared to the first floor, this place is much more gloomy, and the whole environment is quite desolate.

Dead trees, black soil, and a gray sky.

Everything here suggests that this place is unusual.

Ji Xi cut straight to the point, saying, "The Second Floor is called the Eerie World. It is home to many special soul entities with extraordinary combat power!"

"But it should be easy for you to handle!"

Lin Mu was slightly taken aback.

I suddenly realized.

As Nether Emperor Successor, dealing with souls was naturally a piece of cake for him.

"Interesting!" A smile appeared on Lin Mu's lips.

Ji Xi moved and transformed into a middle-aged man who looked somewhat refined.

"If I show up here, I'm bound to be recognized, which will cause unnecessary trouble!"

Lin Mu nodded slightly.

He also knew Ji Xi's identity.

Many of the people here are students from the academy, so they naturally recognize him.

The vice principal's visit will certainly attract considerable attention.

Just as Lin Mu was getting to know this world...

Not far away, two students were in a grove of trees, wielding weapons and slashing at the air.

Their longswords were imbued with Divine Soul Power, as if they could strike something.

If you look closely, you can see wisps of Black Qi swirling around them. These Black Qi are extremely agile and always manage to evade their attacks.

This put them under tremendous pressure.

"These monsters are too difficult to deal with. They have no physical form and special attack methods. If you can't hit their vital points directly, you can't kill them at all!"

"As expected of the trials within the Demon Cloud Tower, it's still a bit too much for us to get here with our current strength!"

"Troublesome guy!"

"..."

They kept complaining.

But at that moment, the Black Qi suddenly transformed into sharp black daggers, piercing towards them.

Faced with these attacks, their expressions changed drastically, and they hurriedly dodged.

But these black daggers seemed to have eyes, and like serpents, they lunged at them.

Sizzle!

Caught off guard, the two were stabbed by the dagger, bleeding profusely, and their faces showed signs of pain.

"Divine Soul Wave!"

A shout came from one of the mouths.

His Divine Soul spread outwards, forming waves of impact.

The Black Qi was instantly dispersed.

This gave them a chance to catch their breath.

Another person took out a golden talisman, on which beams of light shimmered.

Buzz!

A Protective Shield enveloped them.

The Black Qi swirled around the Protective Shield. After a while, realizing that it could not break through the defense, it dispersed in all directions.

The two people inside the Protective Shield breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the ground to treat their wounds.

Lin Mu also noticed them and naturally observed their strange attack methods.

That's really weird!

They can disperse or gather, making them impossible to guard against.

"For ordinary martial artists, unless they have a talent in their Divine Soul abilities, this second level is not easy at all!"

Lin Mu thought to himself.

Before he could walk very far forward, streaks of Black Qi gathered towards him.

He saw a ghost-like figure appear before him, holding a dagger and with a fierce look in its eyes.

Ji Xi stared at the shadow with a calm expression.

First Tier Vengeful Spirit!

It's the lowest-ranking Vengeful Spirit here!

Lin Mu held a long sword in his hand.

Almost the instant the Vengeful Spirit appeared before him, the long sword in his hand suddenly fell.

A surge of Netherworld Power emerged.

Sizzle!

It made a piercing sound, like boiling water being poured onto the first snow.

The Vengeful Spirit emitted a sharp, agonizing scream.

"Aaaaaaah!"

The sound immediately caught the attention of the two men.

When they saw that the Vengeful Spirit, which was extremely difficult for them to deal with, was so easily killed.

Their eyes were filled with horror.

They couldn't believe it.

Someone can deal with Vengeful Spirit so easily.

"I'm not seeing things, am I?!"

"No! I saw it too. What method did he use to kill him in one go!"

"I don't know, it must be some kind of Divine Soul technique!"

"Too powerful! It turns out that our inability to deal with Vengeful Spirit was our problem; in the hands of others, they wouldn't have much trouble dealing with them!"

"..."

The two were deeply affected.

I feel like a complete noob.

Under their watchful eyes, Lin Mu walked forward like an executioner, instantly slaying every Vengeful Spirit that came before him.
