Chapter 74

"Immortal Ghost Lord's immortal abode!" Jiang Wei understood that this was a great opportunity for him, but it was also a great danger.

However, Jiang Wei had no regrets about coming here—opportunities have always come with dangers, the greater the opportunity, the greater the danger. Whether in the human world or the ghost world, any supreme powerhouses could not have been cultivated in a greenhouse; they had to have survived through countless dangers and opportunities.

Those who survived one crisis after another became supreme powerhouses; those who died halfway through were nothing!

Jiang Wei was very clear that his opportunity had come, of course, the danger had also come!

"This is just one opportunity on my path to becoming a powerhouse!" The immortal abode was clearly overwhelming, but Jiang Wei dared to disdain it in his heart.

This was the heart of a powerhouse!—In the face of danger, some people were scared out of their wits, some were at a loss, some were on high alert, and some were timid; but true powerhouses should have a heart that disdains danger!

Obviously, Jiang Wei possessed it!

Of course, the heart of a powerhouse did not mean courting death; although Jiang Wei was fearless in his heart, he was actually extremely cautious.

"Master is an incomparably great existence!" The water sprite had an incomparably fanatical admiration for its master, "Even among the Immortal Ghost Lords, the master is an extremely powerful existence; with enough time, it is highly possible to achieve the rank of Ghost Immortal in the future! But..."

"Master is dead!"

...

Dead?

Jiang Wei was stunned.

Wasn't it said that the Immortal Ghost Lord was immortal? How could he die?

Of course, Jiang Wei would never dare to ask such a question, because he found that whenever the water sprite mentioned the master's death, its emotions became uncontrollable. Jiang Wei was fully convinced that if he asked such an ignorant question, the water sprite would definitely kill him directly!

Jiang Wei did not think he had any hope of survival when facing an angry water sprite... After all, even Jiang Wei's greatest trump card—the invincible little golden man—admitted that the water sprite's strength was no less than his! Moreover, this was the water sprite's home turf, and Jiang Wei did not believe that the water sprite would not have other killing moves.

Therefore, in short, Jiang Wei was very clear that at this moment, he must not say anything that would hurt the water sprite; otherwise... he really wouldn't know how he would die!

"Although the master is dead, he left behind all the secret techniques and treasures he had acquired in his lifetime in this immortal abode, waiting for a successor!" The water sprite calmed down and said calmly.

Jiang Wei immediately widened his eyes—an Immortal Ghost Lord's lifetime wealth!?

Jiang Wei could not imagine how much wealth an Immortal Ghost Lord could have; but Jiang Wei was sure that even if all the wealth of the entire Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion were combined, it would be like a small witch compared to a great witch. After all, the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion's signature technique, *Nine Soul Unleashes*, was merely a cultivation method that could only reach the Soul Unleashes stage; in comparison, the head of the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion and this Immortal Ghost Lord were worlds apart!

A great opportunity!

However, Jiang Wei understood that what awaited him was definitely a great test!

Pass the test, and he would rise to the heavens; fail the test, and his soul would be shattered.

Sure enough, the water sprite continued, "The master's lifetime efforts and wealth cannot be easily passed on to others; however, the master left a test before his death. Do you want to accept the test?" As it spoke, the water sprite shook its head and sighed, "But to be honest, you haven't even reached the Soul Unleashes stage. The chances of passing the test are extremely low, almost zero! I will give you a way out; if you don't want to accept the test, you can directly reincarnate and be reborn; if you fail the test, you will only have the path of soul shattering!"

Jiang Wei had only two choices: reincarnate and be reborn, or accept the test; as for wanting to leave this immortal abode directly... the water sprite did not give him that option!

In fact, Jiang Wei did not know that there were once some Soul Unleashes stage ghosts who, not wanting to accept the test, tried to leave; but without exception, they all ended up with their souls shattered.

As for the Soul Division stage ghost kings, and other Immortal Ghost Lords... the water sprite had also encountered them; some Immortal Ghost Lords even tried to forcibly refine this immortal abode. However, whenever it encountered ghost kings or ghost lords, the water sprite would unhesitatingly control the immortal abode and flee far away; then it would find a new place and re-establish itself.

"Reincarnate and be reborn?"

Jiang Wei rejected it without hesitation—this life wasn't enough for him yet, there were still many things he wanted to do, how could he reincarnate and be reborn now!?

"I am willing to accept the test!" Jiang Wei said without hesitation.

"Very good!" The water sprite rarely showed a smile, "Although your strength is a bit weak, the more ghosts who accept the test, the greater the master's chances of finding a successor; just consider it... as a number!"

Just a number...

Jiang Wei was speechless—among the Soul Unleashes stage ghosts, it was probably hard to find one stronger than him! Such strength, and yet he was used as a number? But Jiang Wei also understood that with his soul concentration of only fifty times, being discriminated against was to be expected!

"Discrimination is discrimination..." Jiang Wei was very open-minded; after all, no matter how the water sprite discriminated against him, it would not affect his strength in the slightest, "If this water sprite lowers the difficulty of the test because of discrimination, that would be great..." Although Jiang Wei was fearless in his heart, he did not mind if the difficulty of the test could be a bit lower; after all, this was a matter of life and death, and Jiang Wei naturally hoped that the "mortality rate" could be lower.

Drip!

Drip!

The dripping sound in the immortal abode never stopped, subtly affecting his mind.

"Come, then jump into this pond and accept the test left by the great master!" the water sprite said.

Jump into this pond?

Jiang Wei hesitated for a moment, then no longer thought about it; he drew the long spear from his back, held it in his hand, and directly dived into the pond.

"Let me see what kind of test it is!" Facing the test, Jiang Wei was completely fearless.

"Plunk!"

As soon as Jiang Wei dived into the pond, he immediately disappeared; the pond was as calm as ever, without a ripple, as if Jiang Wei had never been there.

"Finally, another one has come!" The water sprite looked at the empty pond in a daze, "Master... it has been tens of thousands of years, why hasn't an excellent successor come yet!!!"

For a great being like an Immortal Ghost Lord, the concept of longevity actually had little meaning; tens of thousands of years, hundreds of thousands of years, or even longer, were just numbers!

They had ways to increase their longevity!

Time had little meaning for a puppet like the water sprite; but the water sprite had waited too long, it was too eager to find a suitable successor for its master!
