Chapter 687: 687
Nangong Mingzhu had thought that Mo Wen was only an ordinary warrior . However, she now discovered that the youth’s background was mysterious . In the ancient martial arts world, there were quite a few people who could recognize those from the Heretic Forces . There were also quite a few who could recognize those from the Ghost Lair . However, few would dare to go up against someone of the Heretic Forces, and refuse to give in .
The youth was very talented and had many treasures . He was possibly from a mysterious and powerful force . After all, ordinary martial arts grandmasters would find it hard to obtain a profound level weapon to defend themselves . Yet, this youth had three profound level weapons . Even she felt respect for him for having such a wide range of weapons .
Chu Yuan was not as impressed . When Mo Wen revealed where he was from, he was also shocked . He had not expected that the youth would dare to behave so flagrantly even though he knew who Chu Yuan was . A person who would dare to fight against someone from the Heretic Forces was either very arrogant or was truly unafraid .
However, no matter what, Chu Yuan could not turn back now . This Mo Wen had called him a dirty dog in front of everyone . He could not bear it . He, Chu Yuan, was considered a rather famous person in the Ghost Lair . This lad, who was barely grown, was as good as looking for death .
Wisps of black fog escaped from Chu Yuan . The moment the black fog appeared, it immediately howled . The sound of ghosts crying and the yelling of aggrieved souls could be heard . A ghostly aura descended, enveloping Mo Wen .
The pupils of all the warriors, even Tan Qiyue and Gao Hanshan, narrowed . It was rare for a warrior to have such power, and it was difficult for warriors to master such peculiar skills .
Hurmph!
Mo Wen snorted coldly . He was certain that Chu Yuan, who was in front of him, was a ghost cultivator amongst immortal cultivators . He had clearly practiced ghost cultivation . However, Chu Yuan’s ghost fog could only be considered ordinary . Mo Wen had once seen an even more powerful ghost cultivator whose ghost fog resulted in the death of everything within a ten-mile radius .
A ray of golden light flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes . The moment the gold light appeared, it struck the ghost fog, which dispersed as soon as it was hit . It was as if the fog was a dark cloud and the ray of light was sunlight shining through it, causing it to dissipate and disappear .
Most of the power of the ghost fog was in the souls it carried in it . The cries and howls of the vengeful spirits were a form of spiritual attack that could cause one’s emotions to be flustered and make a person develop hallucinations . Powerful ghost fogs could even drag one’s soul into hell . That person would then experience the 18 levels of hell, and suffer a pain worse than death .
Chu Yuan’s ghost fog did not have that ability . It did not even have the ability to disturb Mo Wen . Mo Wen’s soul power was very strong right now . It was astonishing . It tore through Chu Yuan’s ghost fog, which had not affected his mind at all .

“What powerful mental strength!” Nangong Mingzhu was greatly shocked . The mental power that Mo Wen had released shocked even her . Even a martial arts grandmaster would find it difficult to possess such powerful mental power . His powers had surpassed hers, even when she was at the peak of her strength .
A warrior with such terrifyingly powerful mental strength was of extremely high quality . They would just be a slight distance away from the Power of Soul and Will . Even among immortal cultivators, it was rare to have one who could cultivate their mental strength to such a level . It was usually extraordinary Golden Elixir immortal cultivators and immortal cultivators who were about to break into the Primordial Soul Realm who possessed such mental strength . It was terrifying for a young warrior to possess such powerful mental strength .
Chu Yuan was also shocked . His eyes were wide as he looked at Mo Wen incredulously . Ghost cultivators were sensitive towards all types of soul power . He had clearly sensed how powerful Mo Wen’s mental strength was when he reached out to dispel his ghost fog .
As a ghost cultivator, Chu Yuan had always thought that his soul cultivation was the strongest amongst all of the humans who came here . There was almost no one whose soul cultivation could compare to his . But now, he suddenly realized that Mo Wen’s soul power was even slightly stronger than his .
Among ghost cultivators, he had already surpassed immortal cultivators in the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir Realm . He was equivalent to a martial arts grandmaster among warriors . How was it possible for a young warrior to have a mental cultivation that was even better than his!
There was a flash of purple light and a small purple bell appeared in Mo Wen’s hand . It was the Cries of Hades Bell .
“Shake,” Mo Wen said softly . The Cries of Hades Bell rang crisply . Then, an invisible ripple spread outwards, enveloping Chu Yuan in mere moments .
Clang!
Chu Yuan’s mind shook . It was as if thunder had struck his mind . The pain was so intense that he almost cried out . Everything shook before him and he almost lost his focus momentarily .
However, Chu Yuan was a ghost cultivator and his soul power was immensely strong . He did not lose his focus, but the view before his eyes shook slightly . However, he regained consciousness immediately . A white skull floated from Chu Yuan’s body and hung over his head . It released rays of grey light which enveloped him completely .

The grey light was an unknown entity that had the ability to block mental power . Mo Wen’s mental power would definitely be reduced once it passed through the grey light .
“Ghost cultivation profound level weapon!”
Chu Yuan breathed in sharply and he stared at the Cries of Hades Bell in Mo Wen’s hand . He had not expected Mo Wen to have a Ghost cultivation profound level weapon, and for it to be one that could directly attack souls .
“How did you get a Ghost cultivation profound level weapon? Where did you get it?” Chu Yuan’s expression was dark as he yelled loudly at Mo Wen .
Mo Wen’s Ghost cultivation profound level weapon was a rare treasure . Logically speaking, most of the Ghost cultivation profound level weapons of the world came from the Ghost Lair . Ordinary people would find it hard to make such a Ghost cultivation profound level weapon and would not spend the effort to make such an object .
As such, the Cries of Hades Bell in Mo Wen’s hand likely came from the Ghost Lair .
“You dirty dog . You really have a lot of questions . If you want to fight, then fight . ” Mo Wen moved his finger slightly and a ray of golden light emerged from his Nine Yang finger which was pointed at Chu Yuan . The Nine Yang finger contained the Qi of Nine Yang and was very strong in Yang . It could cause great damage to a ghost immortal cultivator like Chu Yuan .
“You have taken a treasure from the Ghost Lair . I have to kill you . ” Chu Yuan looked at Mo Wen coldly . A skull ceremonial staff appeared in his hand . It was a low-grade profound level weapon, and it had a terrifying aura .
He pointed the ceremonial staff in front of him and a shield formed by the gathering of white bones appeared before him . The Nine Yang fingers smashed onto the white bone shield and there was a dull clang . Black smoke spiraled from the white bone shield and a large crater appeared . Part of it had been melted by the heat of the Nine Yang fingers .
However, no one knew what kind of abilities the white bone shield possessed . The penetration abilities of the Nine Yang fingers were so strong, but it was unable to breach its defenses .

Then, just as the two were about to continue their fight, the Tower Spirit suddenly spoke . “Congratulations, seven human warriors . You have completed the second task and will enter the third stage soon . At the same time, all of you will receive a top-grade Recovery light as a reward for getting through the second stage . ” The Tower Spirit’s voice had only just appeared when seven rays of light descended from above, shining onto the seven of them .
Mo Wen discovered that he could not walk out of the light that enclosed him within . He could only move around within the ray of light . It was not just him . Everyone else was in the same situation . They were all restrained within the light .
A ray of blue light appeared before each of them . The blue light was brilliant but was not crystalized . It was a top-grade Recovery light . The Tower Spirit would give them a reciprocal reward for each stage they got through . In both stages, the rewards were both top-grade Recovery lights .
After receiving this Recovery light, Mo Wen now had three top-grade Recovery lights, four top-grade Healing lights, and a superb-grade Healing light .
As for medium-grade light tools, Mo Wen did not care much for them anymore . They were things that he could obtain through killing Lord demonic beasts and he would not be in want of them in the future .
The space around them twisted . Then, everyone disappeared from the altar .
When Mo Wen reappeared, the scene before him had completely changed . Before him were verdant trees . The trees that surrounded him were all tall and great, and they extended into the high clouds . All the trees here were ancient . It was as if they had come to a primeval forest that had never been discovered by humans .
Mo Wen’s nose twitched slightly . He discovered that there was a salty tang to the wind . It was the sea breeze! Mo Wen had a keen sense of observation with regards to his environment . He immediately noticed that there was wind everywhere . It was probably the sea breeze . Were they close to the sea?
Mo Wen was a little doubtful . He looked around, and then flew into the air . The gravity of this place was similar to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension . Those with Golden Elixir Realm cultivations could fly .
Mo Wen flew up to a large tree that was several dozen meters high . He looked into the distance and realized that he could see a glimpse of the sea and the sky . It was a vast expanse of water .
Furthermore, he could see the environment that surrounded them . Mo Wen was now certain that he was on a primeval island in the middle of the sea . This island was neither large nor small, and was probably over ten thousand square kilometers .
Why had the Tower Spirit sent him to this island?
“The third task begins . You only have one task, and that is to survive . You have to survive on this island…” The voice of the Tower spirit rang in the air . Then, waves of information appeared in Mo Wen’s mind . They were related to the task this time . Moments later, Mo Wen had received all the information the Tower Spirit sent to him .
“Surviving on this deserted island!” Mo Wen laughed bitterly . He had not expected the third task to be like this . It was too difficult . To survive! It was indeed to survive!
The island was called the Beast King Island, and there were beast kings on this island . Furthermore, all the demonic beasts on the island were beast kings . It was a perverse island where even the lowest-leveled beast was a beast king . It was also likely that there would be terrifying existences that were even more powerful than beast kings .
The seven human warriors had all been sent to this island and they only had one task: to survive . They had to survive on this island for one day and then they would succeed in the third task . There were only three tasks and as long as they could pass this, they would complete the double task . This meant that in the day that followed, they would all live on this island .
“This is too perverse!” Mo Wen scolded to himself . The island was filled with beast kings . This was as good as killing them!
