True Immortal of the Netherworld

Chapter 12 Ghost Tower Trial (1)



Ever since Xu Yang got the spiritual pet "Pan Tao", Xu Yang became interested in cultivating spiritual pets.

As the main ghost sect, the Tiangui Sect has a special place for raising spiritual pets - the Ghost Spirit Tower. The Ghost Spirit Tower is a large space magic weapon. It is said that it was created by "Zang Wuya", the founder of the Tiangui Sect.

What is different from other sects is that the ghost spirits in the Ghost Spirit Tower are ghost pets. In some aspects, Ghost Dao Spirit Pets are more suitable for monks who practice Ghost Dao techniques, such as techniques and habits.

Ghost pets are different from ghosts. Real ghosts are born in another interface called the Netherworld. Ghosts need to survive in an environment with extremely strong ghost power for a long time. Ghost pet is just a special spirit pet with some ghost characteristics and talents.

In ancient times, the aura of Zhongyuan Continent was many times stronger than it is now. There is a passage between the Nether World and the Zhongyuan Continent - the Zhongyuan World. A large number of ghost cultivators, ghost spirits, and ghost beasts from the Netherworld entered the Zhongyuan Realm through the passage. Along with it comes a massive amount of Netherworld power. A shocking war broke out in the Zhongyuan world between the monks in the Zhongyuan world and the ghost cultivators from the Netherworld.

But for some unknown reason, a long time ago, the channel between the Nether Realm and the Zhongyuan Realm disappeared, and the ghost cultivators retreated to the Nether Realm. Only the increasingly thinning power of the netherworld still exists in the Zhongyuan world. However, infected by the power of the netherworld, some spirit beasts mutated and turned into ghost spirit beasts, and their descendants have been multiplying to this day.

Ghost spirit beasts are often more ferocious than ordinary spirit beasts, and are even more likely to attack ordinary people and monks. Moreover, only monks who practice ghostly techniques can make these ghostly beasts recognize their masters perfectly.

The powerful combat power brought by the power of the Netherworld has been favored by some powerful people in the Zhongyuan world. The founder of the Tiangui Sect, "Zang Wuya", is the best among these powers. He used the power of the netherworld to create a large number of ghost techniques.

The Tiangui Sect not only mobilized its disciples to capture the ghost spirit beasts and put them in the ghost spirit tower, but also publicly purchased the ghost spirit beasts at a high price and put them in the ghost spirit tower.

In this way, on the one hand, the harm caused by ghost beasts to Zhongyuan Continent is greatly reduced. On the other hand, make the best use of everything for the Heavenly Ghost Sect to use and strengthen the Heavenly Ghost Sect's power. Therefore, more than 50% of the ghost beasts on the Zhongyuan Continent are in the Ghost Spirit Tower.

The Ghost Spirit Tower has two functions.

First, it can be used by Tiangui Sect disciples to capture ghost beasts for their own use.

Secondly, Tiangui Sect disciples can engage in special training and improve their cultivation through fighting with the ghost beasts in the Ghost Spirit Tower.

Tiangui Sect disciples who want to enter the Ghost Spirit Tower to capture spiritual pets need to pay a certain amount of Tiangui coins. The higher the level of the spiritual pet, the more Heavenly Ghost Coins you need to pay. Tiangui coins are actually spiritual stones engraved with the Tiangui Sect's mark. As a reward for disciples completing tasks within the sect, they can be used for consumption in various properties within the Tiangui Sect. Ghost Spirit Tower is one of them.

The Ghost Spirit Tower has ten floors, and various ghost spirit beasts are distributed on the first to tenth floors of the Ghost Spirit Tower from low to high according to their level. The tenth level of legend has ghost beasts that are equivalent to the soul realm.

Xu Yang currently does not want to enter the Ghost Spirit Tower to catch ghost beasts as spiritual pets, because Xu Yang feels that "Pan Peach" is no worse than any other ghost beasts.

The purpose of Xu Yang entering the Ghost Spirit Tower was firstly to exercise his fighting skills, and secondly to let Pantao cooperate with him in attacking, so as to cultivate the combined fighting ability between himself and Pantao.

On this day, Xu Yang arrived at the Ghost Spirit Tower through the small teleportation circle within the sect.

The Ghost Spirit Tower is located in an unknown valley and is under the jurisdiction of the Ghost Spirit Academy, a branch of the Guitian Ghost Sect.

The ground in the square of Guilingyuan is clean and tidy.

Looking up, the Ghost Spirit Tower stands on the hillside opposite the square. The dark ten-story tower flashes with strange runes from time to time.

Xu Yang walked in the square and shuddered when he thought that the Ghost Spirit Tower was full of ghost spirit beasts. There are some trees planted around the square. The wind blows through the treetops, making bursts of rustling sounds, which makes the surrounding area even quieter. It is so quiet that people feel a little suspicious. Occasionally hearing a bird song, Xu Yang would subconsciously check the source of the sound.

Arrive at the entrance to the first floor of Ghost Spirit Tower.

I saw a wooden bulletin board standing next to the entrance. In front of the bulletin board, there were many disciples from various branches of the Tiangui Sect.

The notice board clearly states the precautions for entering the Ghost Spirit Tower:

One, the entry fee. On the first level, each person gets one hundred days of ghost coins each time. Each person on the second level has three hundred ghost coins each time... The ninth and tenth levels are not open to ordinary disciples and must be approved by the sect's elders' council before entering.

2. The cost of arrest. To capture the ghost beasts on the first level, you need to pay 3,000 Heavenly Ghost Coins for each one. Each ghost beast on the second level needs to pay 9,000 days of ghost coins, and each ghost spirit beast on the third level needs to pay 20,000 days of ghost coins...

Third, the ghost beasts in the center of each level of the ghost tower are stronger than those at the edges. It is recommended to form a team of three or more to enter.

Fourth, enter the time. Each person can only enter the Ghost Spirit Tower once per month. Each entry cannot exceed seven days...

5. The disciples who enter must be at a level greater than or equivalent to the ghost beasts on the same floor of the Ghost Spirit Tower. They are not allowed to jump into higher levels of the Ghost Spirit Tower to avoid accidents.

After Xu Yang read the bulletin board carefully, he handed over one hundred Tiangui coins at the entrance. Through the dedicated portal, you entered the first floor of the Ghost Spirit Tower.

The first floor of Ghost Spirit Tower.

Looking around, the landing place is very flat, probably because everyone who comes in has passed by here. The place has been stepped on and is smooth and flat, like a small square. Not far away, a small stream flows out of the valley in the distance and disappears into the shrubbery on the other side. There is a mountain peak standing tall in the distance.

Wherever you look, the scenery is the same as that of the mountains and fields outside the sect. There are no ghosts or beasts at all. Xu Yang dispersed his consciousness and found no spiritual power fluctuations within a radius of ten feet, and the instinctive tension in his heart was reduced by one point.

This is the only entrance and exit on the first floor of Ghost Spirit Tower. Many disciples enter and leave this floor every day. Even if all the ghosts at the entrance were not captured, they were scared away. Thinking of this, Xu Yang decided to explore in depth.

"Pan Tao" squatted on Xu Yang's shoulder, and one person and one animal came to the edge of the central area on the first floor of the Ghost Spirit Tower. I saw a river three feet wide in front of me blocking the way, and there were dense woods on the other side of the river.

Xu Yang made a seal with his left hand, gathered the magic power under his feet, and used the air control technique to fly across the river.

As soon as they reached the sky above the river, a splash of water suddenly rose under their feet, and a black ghost fish with huge bone spurs on its back jumped out of the water. The ghost fish was covered in black gas, and it showed its jagged steel teeth and headed towards Xu Yang. Come and bite. Xu Yang secretly screamed something bad, and ran the Dark Fire Technique at a very high speed to increase the height of the air control.

At the critical moment, a ball of blue-white electricity passed under Xu Yang's feet. With a bang, it accurately hit the head of the huge black fish. The blue-white electric arc exploded instantly, and the upward momentum of the black fish stopped abruptly. Fell down.

The cattail fan-like fish tail rubbed against the soles of Xu Yang's feet and fell back to the water with a splash, causing water to splash.

Xu Yang turned his head and smiled at "Pan Tao" and said, "Well done."

"Pan Tao" nodded proudly.

At this moment, there was only a splash on the water, a huge splash of water rose up, and a grey-green, huge and ferocious giant crocodile jumped out of the water, holding in its mouth the black ghost fish that had just attacked Xu Yang. The huge crocodile's mouth violently swung back and forth, and the black ghost fish was bitten to pieces and became the giant crocodile's belly meal, leaving only a pool of blood. The cruel laws of the jungle make people sigh.

"There are many dangers here. Isn't it a bit reckless to enter the central area to explore by myself?" Xu Yang thought secretly.

Cross the river and come to the dense woods.

With the lesson learned just now, Xu Yang decided not to use the air control technique easily.

Xu Yang carefully entered the woods on foot. After one stick of incense, we had arrived deep in the woods. There was a rustling sound in the woods, as if something was approaching. Xu Yang crouched down, hiding his breath and observing quietly.

Not long after, a huge black wind bear appeared in Xu Yang's field of vision. This bear is about ten feet long, its hair is dark and translucent, and its body is as strong as a wall.

Xu Yang dispersed his consciousness and realized that there were no other spiritual beasts around. After carefully observing the surrounding terrain and scenery, he decided to take action.

Holding your breath and concentrating, you use the trees as cover to approach quietly and detour behind the Black Wind Bear.

Xu Yang waved his hand, and Pantao jumped down and disappeared into the grass on the ground. Secretly urging the Dark Fire Technique, flicking his wrist, a fireball the size of a fist roared out.

The black wind bear's two little ears moved excitedly twice, already aware of the strange movement in the air. Turning around, a huge bear's paw hit the fireball like a shovel mixed with black wind. With a "pop" sound, the fireball was smashed into pieces and turned into large sparks that dissipated in the void.

Black Wind Bear instantly spotted Xu Yang not far away. He stared at the invading enemy with a pair of small green eyes. He opened his mouth and let out a roar that made the surrounding branches rustle.

Xu Yang was well prepared. He gathered his magic power under his feet and jumped onto a tree not far away.

Seeing that it couldn't attack Xu Yang, the black bear bared its teeth at Xu Yang on the tree and let out a series of dull whining sounds. Immediately afterwards, a pair of strong fleshy palms slapped the tree trunk. With a click, like a child folding a hemp stick, the tree as big as a bowl broke.

Everything was as expected by Xu Yang, and he jumped to the other side. With the rebound of the landing, he used his magic power to quickly jump to another tree.

The black wind bear followed him like a shadow, and with another slap, another tree as thick as a bowl was broken.

In this way, Xu Yang jumped around in the woods, and from time to time used the Dark Fire Technique to shoot fireballs to delay the Black Wind Bear's movements.

The Black Wind Bear was like swatting a field mouse. In just one cup of tea, all the trees within a dozen feet in radius were knocked down and scattered across a large area. The black wind bear stuck out its black tongue, panting heavily, its movements became much slower, and its two green eyes looked listless.

Taking advantage of Black Wind Bear's declining physical strength, Xu Yang made a quick judgment. When he raised his hand, a fire cone appeared in his right hand. Three fireballs were fired in a row, and a cold light appeared faintly in the third fireball, with a fire cone hidden in it and shot out.

The bear's paw waved, and with two "bang bangs" the two fireballs in front were smashed into pieces.

The moment the black bear hit the third fireball, the fire cone hidden in the third fireball burst out and nailed the black bear's shoulder.

With a pop, the smaller half of the fire cone was submerged into the black bear's shoulder, and instantly a large amount of hot blood flowed down the wound.
