3: The whole class is still raising iron corpses, but I have already contracted the Ghost King.

Lin Mo maxed out his points in one go.

He directly upgraded to a high-grade corpse.

Typically, for such high-grade corpses, the coffins unearthed from graves are not ordinary ones.

They are double-layered coffins, with a heavy bronze outer sarcophagus, and inside, a high-end coffin made of dark-wood.

Of course, for a Jade Corpse like Lin Mo's.

Legend has it that the coffins unearthed are carved from a single block of white marble.

Extremely rare.

When opened, they contain fierce and malevolent beings.

If someone were to unearth such a coffin, before they even opened it to sign a contract with the corpse inside.

Various multinational corporations outside the graveyard would surely offer a price that could tame you, to buy it.

Of course.

If you choose not to sell.

You could also choose to hand it over to the country.

The country would reward you with the nationally rare May Fourth Youth Medal, and would also cover your medical and old-age care for life, allowing you to live as a carefree dignitary… Of course.

Such good fortune usually doesn't fall to ordinary people… But Lin Mo, in just over a day, transformed his most ordinary female corpse into a malevolent ghost.

He let out a long breath.

Lin Mo looked at the female corpse in the coffin.

The original corpse had undergone further changes.

Her tattered white clothes appeared mended by invisible threads, becoming whole.

Her once swollen skin shed its dullness, becoming as fair as jade, almost transparent.

Her damp long hair turned raven black and smooth, moving without a breeze.

Her formerly vacant eyes glowed with a ghostly green light again, interwoven with resentment and malevolence, yet adding a touch of mysterious cold beauty.

"My Lord… thank you for my new life…"

Lin Mo's mouth fell open, clearly astonished by the female ghost before him.

When he first carried her back, her body was decaying, but now she had become Nie Xiaoqian, or perhaps White Lady would be a more fitting description.

"Let me see her current attributes…"

[Eerie Name: Drowning Female Wraith]

[Realm: Jade Corpse (Purple Crystal)]

[Level: LV1 (Increases with host)]

[Strength: 300]

[Agility: 400]

[Spirit: 500]

[Vitality: 83000]

[Skills: Water Tornado, Ghostly Water Image, Water Ghost Substitution, Water Vine Entanglement, Water Ghost Transformation]

[Description: This female ghost possesses immense power and can control the depths of the water pool]

Holy crap?!

The speed of this grade increase is too exaggerated.

Keep in mind, this is still Level 1.

She hasn't even gone out to level up with him.

Her attributes could still multiply by who knows how much… No wonder corpses of this caliber are considered national strategic resources.

It's truly astonishing.

To think, the Boss in a hard-difficulty novice dungeon doesn't even have a 4-digit health bar.

In the eyes of his female corpse, it wouldn't even be a challenge.

However, it's still only the third day.

There are still 7 days until school starts, and the next breakthrough requires 500,000 female veneration points.

She should be able to advance once more.

These next few days, he still needs to carefully nurture the corpse, as Teacher Wu taught in class.

Spending day and night by her side, their threads of fate connecting… becoming a true family.

Besides daily incense offerings and burning paper money, Lin Mo had one other task.

That was to register as a Moving Corpse Master using his phone.

In this world, after everyone receives their respective corpse.

They can voluntarily apply to become a Moving Corpse Master.

Only after becoming a Moving Corpse Master can one enter the world dungeons ruled by the eerie to train.

If you don't actively apply.

The school won't force you.

After all, entering those terrifying places could mean losing your life at any moment.

The school only provides a system evaluation, telling you whether you are suitable to be a Moving Corpse Master based on your own situation.

The final decision rests with you.

As long as the corpse's grade isn't too bad, most people apply for this license.

[Please face the phone screen directly]

[Please blink…]

[Please shake your head to the left…]

[Please shake your head to the right…]

[Facial recognition passed…]

[Authentication successful]

[Name: Lin Mo]

[Level: LV1]

[Strength: 6]

[Agility: 4]

[Spirit: 5]

[Vitality: 72]

[You have successfully been issued: "Moving Corpse Master" electronic license]

[The next time you reach Level 10, you can randomly receive an official secret manual]

(Note: Realms for Corpse Nurturers: Moving Corpse Master → Corpse Driver → Zhenhun General → Netherworld Envoy → Judge → Yama → Ghost Emperor)

Oh… not bad.

Although his attributes were the lowest in the class.

After continuously doing push-ups morning and night for the past few days.

His strength actually increased by one point.

This couldn't help but excite Lin Mo a little.

This was also thanks to the help of the Drowning Female Wraith… Seven days later… These past few days, he accumulated over 86,000 veneration points daily.

After seven days of accumulation.

He could once again upgrade the Drowning Female Wraith's grade.

"It's finally over, staying with the female corpse."

"With such heavy Yin energy, my Yang energy will be sucked dry sooner or later."

"Quickly evolve again, and I'll go to school tomorrow!"

When the veneration points reached 500,000.

[Ding]

[Detected host has mastered enslaving females. Consume veneration points to enhance power and status? Yes/No]

Lin Mo didn't hesitate at all.

[Congratulations to the host for consuming 500,000 veneration points to upgrade the "White-Clothed Female Corpse", Jade Corpse (Purple Crystal) → Mystic Corpse (obsidian)]

["White-Clothed Female Corpse" has reached the Mystic Corpse (obsidian) realm, evolving into Water Domain Ghost King (Lake Controller)]

[Eerie Name: Water Domain Ghost King]

[Realm: Mystic Corpse (obsidian)]

[Level: LV1 (Increases with host)]

[Strength: 3000]

[Agility: 4000]

[Spirit: 5000]

[Vitality: 830000]

[Skills: Nether Surge of the Dark Lake, obsidian Water Prison, Ghost Lake Illusionary Marsh, Abyss Water Curse Binding, Netherwater Soul Corrosion, Blackwater Covering the World, Water Shadow Stealth]

[Description: Vast lakes and water domains are her territory, King of the Water Domain, no living beings may enter]

This level has already reached the Ghost King level.

Has her combat power already exceeded the norm?

Lin Mo quirked his mouth.

She was already incredibly strong, beyond measure.

Or rather.

Lin Mo was already at a loss for words, not knowing how to describe it.

But.

He knew one thing.

After the next advancement, it would probably be even more astonishing.

The Water Domain Ghost King in the coffin exuded a surge of malevolence.

Like water and jade… it coiled around Lin Mo's waist… "My Lord… I am already weary… when can we go out and play…"

Lin Mo looked at the sun, which had not yet set.

"Don't rush, we'll go out after dark…"

…After dark.

The daytime tranquility ended, and the entire city became lively again at night.

For no other reason.

In the world of fear, daytime was relatively safe, so everyone rested.

Nighttime was relatively dangerous, and most activities also took place at night.

People's vigilance was higher.

"Everyone, line up. Inside the dungeon, there will be a teacher stationed at each node, and once you reach there, you'll be safe, so don't be afraid…"

"Three years of mock exams, five years of college entrance exams, you've worked hard for so many years, today is the moment for the final results, come on!"

The homeroom teacher was giving the students a final pep talk.

Immediately after.

All the students entered the novice dungeon one after another.

When it was Lin Mo's turn.

Teacher Wu shook her head.

"Lin Mo, don't… it's dangerous…"

"How about I get you a helper?"

"It's fine, Teacher Wu, your Outstanding Progress Award this year should be guaranteed."

"Huh!?"

Just as Teacher Wu was confused by his meaning.

[Dungeon Name: Purgatory City]

[Difficulty: Hard]

[Recommended Entry Level: LV25, 5-person team]

[Dungeon Setting: Public, No]

[Limited Number of Participants Adjusted: 1 person]

[Warning: This setting will close the rescue channel. Please consider carefully before entering!!!]

This time, the school's evaluation was considered easy, assessing students' corpse manipulation skills, with teachers assisting at every critical node.

There were no safety issues whatsoever.

However, the hard difficulty Lin Mo chose exceeded the school's assessment criteria.

Moreover.

His choice to close the dungeon's public access meant that no one else could enter this dungeon.

He would have the entire dungeon to himself.

Of course.

This directly triggered a full alarm…
