"Come on then!"
Lin Changâsheng sneered, grabbing Qi Huiâs soul by the throat like a chicken. Qi Huiâs soul rolled his eyes back, limbs thrashing helplessly.

"Just as I thought, it works!"
Lin Changâsheng saw the panel flooded with red notifications, his eyes gleaming with satisfaction. In the next moment, he summoned out Dugu Yun, Zhang Hansheng, and a bunch of other souls from the Myriad Soul Banner, and started choking them one by one!
Sure enough, his experience points shot up at lightning speed!
"Whatever, Iâll choke souls and check out the Ghost Dao Hurricane Scroll at the same time."
Lin Changâsheng thought for a second, pulled out the Ghost Dao Hurricane Scroll, and started reading.
This was a Foundation Establishment Stage technique from the Celestial Ghost Sect.
Once cast, it forms a black hurricane, fast as hell, impossible to outrun.
"Kid, if you have any guts, just give me a quick end! What kind of skill is it to just torture me!" Xuan Jing, being choked by Lin Changâsheng, rolled his eyes in pain and cursed with venom.
Honestly, Xuan Jing had already been tortured by Lin Changâsheng several times along the wayâthis was a fate worse than death.
He knew escape was hopeless.
Rather than lingering like this, heâd rather just be obliterated and get the whole reincarnation thing over with.
"Youâre in a hurry to die?"
"Quit dreaming and take a look at Qi Hui." Lin Changâsheng gripped Xuan Jingâs neck with one hand, slapped his face with the other, while his experience points kept piling up on the panel!
Lin Changâsheng kept choking ghosts.
[Ghost Dao Hurricane Scroll Entry Level]
[Detected Ghost Dao Technique: Ghost Dao Hurricane Scroll at Entry Level. Would you like to consume 100 Spirit Stones to simplify it?]
Just then, a red system notification popped up on Lin Changâshengâs panel.
"Simplify!"
Lin Changâsheng instantly hit confirm.
[Great Dao is Simple: Simplifying Ghost Dao Hurricane Scroll... Simplified... Ghost Dao Hurricane Scroll == Make Ghosts Spin in Circles!]
He hit confirm, and within thirty breaths, the red notification popped up again.
"Make ghosts spin in circles?"
Lin Changâshengâs eyes flashed, spinning toward Qi Hui on the side.
Seeing Lin Changâshengâs eyes swing his way, Qi Hui looked terrified and stumbled back a few steps.
"Get over here, you!"
Lin Changâsheng took a step forward, twisted Qi Huiâs head, and instantly made him start spinning in place.
Ghost Dao Hurricane Scroll experience points +1!
Ghost Dao Hurricane Scroll experience points +1!
...
"Not bad, not bad."
Watching Qi Hui spin, Lin Changâshengâs eyes gleamed with approval. He growled, "Keep spinning for me!"
"And you, donât get lazy! Start spinning!"
Lin Changâsheng slapped Zhang Hanshengâs soul on the head, making Zhang Hansheng spin nonstop.
He grabbed the necks of some other Celestial Ghost Sect disciplesâ souls stored with Zhang Hansheng, and both his Ghost Dao Hurricane Scroll and Celestial Ghost Essence Condensing Technique experience skyrocketed.
Lin Changâsheng then pulled out the Celestial Skull Refining Technique and the Celestial Ghost Sword Technique to study.
About half an hour laterâ
Both Ghost Dao Techniques were now at entry level.
[Detected Ghost Dao Technique: Celestial Skull Refining Technique. Consume 10 Spirit Stones to simplify?]
[Detected Ghost Dao Technique: Celestial Ghost Sword Technique. Consume 10 Spirit Stones to simplify?]
Two streaks of red system warnings blinked on Lin Changâshengâs panel.
"Simplify!"
Lin Changâsheng hit confirm immediately.
[Great Dao is Simple: Simplifying Celestial Skull Refining Technique... Simplified... Celestial Skull Refining Technique == Touching Skulls!]
[Great Dao is Simple: Simplifying Celestial Ghost Sword Technique... Simplified... Celestial Ghost Sword Technique == Chop Ghosts!]
The instant he clicked confirm, the red pop-ups flashed on his panel.
"So, you want me to touch skulls? Chop ghosts?"
"...The hell?"
Staring at the simplified results, Lin Changâshengâs eyes went wide in shock.
He thought of Xuan Jingâs white jade skullâwouldnât that mean all he had to do was touch that skeleton to rack up experience points in the Celestial Skull Refining Technique?
With that, Lin Changâsheng waved his hand over the storage bag. The White Jade Skull appeared before him. He gave it a caress, then summoned the Immortal Slaying Saber in his right hand and, with one slash, cut a Celestial Ghost Sect discipleâs soul clean in two!
The soul howled miserably and returned to normal, but when he looked at Lin Changâsheng now, his eyes were pure terror with a hint of hatred.
Celestial Skull Refining Technique experience points +1!
Celestial Ghost Sword Technique experience points +1!
"Mmm, nice."
Lin Changâsheng spent half the day fondling bones, slashing ghosts, and making souls spin in circles. Then he stood up, packed everything, and dashed off into the distance.
He still had a Ghost Dao Tracking mark on himâhe couldnât stay in one place for long.
"Just running like this isnât going to cut it."
"Looks like I need to find a sect to hide out in for a while!"
Lin Changâsheng was sprinting while thinking it over.
Right now he had the Ghost Dao Tracking markâthe best plan was to join one of the Righteous Sects. If Xuan Jingâs dad or any of his sect mates came looking, would they really dare charge into a Righteous Sect?
He had the Bone Transformation Techniqueâcould alter his trace and infiltrate a sect. That was the safest play.
Just hole up in their sect for a few years, break through to Golden Core, then he wouldnât have to fear this Ghost Dao Tracking anymore.
"Just... theyâre not recruiting new disciples right now...!"
Lin Changâsheng furrowed his brows and muttered, "Whatever, Iâll head to Liuyun Immortal Sect and check it out! If that doesnât work, Iâll disguise myself as a disciple and sneak in!"
Lin Changâsheng was more familiar with Liuyun Immortal Sect anyway.
Thatâd make it easier to stay undercover.
With that in mind, Lin Changâsheng set off at full speed toward Liuyun Immortal Sect.
Three days later.
Lin Changâsheng had left the Yanyue Immortal Sectâs sphere of influence far behind, entering the Celestial Radiance Mountain Range.
"Once Iâm through the Celestial Radiance Mountains, just another twenty thousand miles and Iâll reach the edge of the Liuyun Immortal Sectâs territory."
Lin Changâsheng stood atop a mountain peak, thinking to himself.
