183: Chapter 183 Body of Doom

Chapter 183: Body of Misfortune

Regarding the rankings this time, although they were disciples of Lingxiao Pavilion, they no longer placed Mo Xiao in the top spot.

This kind of gap was despair-inducing; there was no comparison.

However, there was still some hope of catching up to Luo Xingchen.

"This guy didn't show off and get himself killed in there, did he? I don't believe anyone can stay in there for so many days?"

Where there was praise, there were also those who couldn't stand to see others do well.

He spoke with a sour tone.

There was even some schadenfreude in his eyes.

"Don't be an idiot, alright? Didn't you see his name is still on the ranking? How could he be dead? You're embarrassing yourself!"

"None of your business? Even if he's not dead, he's crippled, can't move, just waiting to die there. If he doesn't die, I'll eat excrement while standing on my head! I said it!"

That person scoffed disdainfully, not forgetting to set a flag for himself.

However, the next moment, a scream rang out in the crowd:

"Everyone, look quickly! He moved, he moved! That Lin Fei is on the fourth level!"

Everyone's gaze once again focused on the ranking divine pillar.

The annotation behind Lin Fei's name had indeed changed; the level had become the fourth level.

"Hahaha, this Junior Brother, so you like eating excrement, huh? If you don't have enough, Senior Brother here can provide it for you!"

Someone immediately burst into laughter.

This face-slap came too quickly.

It made all the onlookers burst into uncontrollable laughter.

"Hmph, he just got lucky. At this moment, he must be severely injured, his mind damaged. He will definitely sink immediately in the fourth level's mental state test. He absolutely won't be able to come out within seven days—"

But, before he could finish his sentence, another astonished voice appeared in the crowd:

"Holy crap, speed run! Lin Fei is on the fifth level!"

The appearance of this sentence directly made him unable to speak the latter half, forcing it back down!

"Hahaha, this Junior Brother, are you a clown invited by monkeys? So hilarious! Why don't you predict how Lin Fei will do on the fifth level?"

"Junior Brother, you're too talented. How do you manage to be wrong about everything you say?"

"When did our Lingxiao Pavilion get such a clown? Simply, hahahaha... I can't stop laughing!"

"......"

As Lin Fei's level reached the fifth level, a large burst of laughter instantly erupted in the central plaza.

This person's mouth really seemed like he had eaten something unclean.

Everything he said immediately developed in the opposite direction, his face swollen from being slapped.

Not only was his mental state unaffected, but he even speed-ran through it.

Whoosh~~

A young figure left the crowd.

His voice just now wasn't concealed, everyone knew it was him who said it. If he didn't leave now, he would truly become a huge joke.

But he didn't go far, hiding his figure and observing again.

Only, a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes.

"Kid, I told you not to speak. Your Body of Misfortune hasn't completely transformed into a Child of Destiny yet. Testing it now is just asking for trouble!"

Just then, a voice appeared in his ear.

And he wasn't surprised at all, as if he had long been accustomed to it.

"Old Chang, it's fine. I'm already used to this kind of thing. Getting cursed a bit doesn't matter. How much longer will it take for my Body of Misfortune to complete its transformation?"

The young man just smiled slightly, seemingly not taking what just happened to heart.

His name was Gu Ming, an unlucky person. The unlucky one wasn't someone else, but himself.

If he said good things, things would go in reverse. If he said bad things, they would go as predicted. And no matter who he spoke about, it would eventually rebound onto him.

In short, he was a complete and utter jinx.

So, after more than a decade of unlucky life, he became mute.

However, fortunately, his cultivation talent was not bad, and because he was born in Lingxiao City, coupled with him sealing his mouth, he successfully joined Lingxiao Pavilion.

At the age of twenty-nine, he cultivated to the mid-Yuanshen Realm.

Not top-tier, but not bad either, considered decent.

However, he was fortunate enough to encounter someone who recognized his Body of Misfortune.

It couldn't even be considered a person, but rather a virtual being existing only in the spiritual world.

Without a physical form, only a voice.

Most importantly, the other party actually had a way to help him transform his body.

A two-way transformation, turning misfortune into fortune, making him a Child of Destiny of this world.

It was clearly told to him that once the transformation was successful, he would be a Child of Destiny, the protagonist of this world's future.

"Hehe, don't rush, it should be soon!"

The voice called Old Chang spoke again.

"By the way, even after you become a Child of Destiny, try your best not to go against that Lin Fei. Stay far away from him!"

His voice was ethereal. If one listened carefully, they would find a hint of fear within it.

(P.S.: Everyone, guess Old Chang's identity. A little hint, this is not an ordinary golden finger grandpa oh!)

"Old Chang, is that Lin Fei really that terrifying?"

Gu Ming looked puzzled, "No matter how powerful he is, can he be more powerful than you?"

This was the truth in his heart.

Otherwise, even if he were experimenting, he wouldn't inexplicably seek out Lin Fei to try.

In his opinion, Old Chang was the most powerful and mysterious person.

So mysterious that even he didn't know where the other party was or how he established contact with him.

As for that Lin Fei, he admitted that among his peers, he could almost be said to be completely dominant, but as long as the older generation of powerhouses made a move, wouldn't he be at their mercy?

He even felt that Lin Fei's current actions were him seeking his own death.

The tallest tree in the forest is bound to be destroyed by the wind. He didn't even understand such a simple principle; he was still young and impetuous.

Most importantly, this big tree of his had grown too tall, so tall that others couldn't even see its top when they looked up.

How could a small Hehuan Sect protect him?

Therefore, he felt that Lin Fei's outcome would not be good.

But Old Chang said such things to him, which was very unlike Old Chang's usual demeanor.

"Kid, just listen to me. Some things are completely incomprehensible!"

Old Chang heard this, reminded him again, and then fell silent.

He had no intention of explaining.

"This... Alright, I understand!"

Not hearing the explanation he wanted, Gu Ming didn't dare to ask too many questions.

After all, his Body of Misfortune still needed Old Chang to help him reverse it.

This was the key to changing his destiny.

He didn't want to be mute for a lifetime!

Similarly, he became even more curious about Lin Fei....

......

Divine Hall, Fifth Level.

What appeared before Lin Yu was a vast, boundless, and ink-blue ocean scene, extending endlessly into the distance as if without end.

Above the great sea, stood a hundred towering, colossal bronze statues.

Each of these bronze statues was several hundred zhang tall, majestic and grand like giants supporting the heavens and earth.

They varied in form; some held precious swords, looking awe-inspiring; some were clad in heavy armor, solemn and dignified; and others had their hands clasped together, appearing solemn and sacred.
