The system is the proficiency panel

Lin Ji pouted unhappily and walked forward to check the light ball, hoping to find what he needed. There really was a martial arts book "Ten Thousand Swords". Lin Ji crushed the light ball, took out the martial arts book and opened it to see. It was Xiao Tianyou's understanding of sword power: Ten Thousand Swords.

'At least it wasn't a wasted trip'

At this time, several people nearby woke up with frustrated expressions, probably because they had failed. A 17-year-old girl saw the martial arts in Lin Ji's hand and asked.

"You got the reward, which means you passed, so why don't you go to the next level."

"I wanted to, too, but unfortunately I'm not the first one to pass."

Lin Ji pointed to the words engraved on the stone tablet. The girl looked around to see the remaining people, then said with a confused expression.

"That's impossible. The missing person was originally a disciple from the same sect as me. He was timid and afraid of death by nature, and he easily gave up halfway through doing things. During a mission, he abandoned other disciples and ran away. He was then banished from the sect and became a casual cultivator. How could such a person be chosen?"

"You said he was a coward and afraid of death?"

"Yes, I am sure."

These words made Lin Ji suddenly enlightened, and he immediately thought of a possibility.

"Xiao Tianyou is not looking for an heir, but for a body possession. The previous tests were all done by Xiao Tianyou to screen candidates. The sixth level was to deliberately choose a person with a weak mind to increase the success rate of possession."

"But the possession of bodies recorded in the Xuantian Sect's classics cannot succeed at all, because the soul and the body will not match, and death will occur sooner or later. If there really is a method of possession of bodies, how did Xiao Tianyou get it? No, I have to go to the passage where the independent cultivators on the third floor take a look. If there is really a problem, I must destroy this place in advance. I would rather kill the wrong person than let him go, even if it is just for my own safety."

Lin Ji's expression turned cold, and he ran quickly to the third floor. The people around him were curious to see him leave suddenly, so they followed him to see. At this time, on the seventh floor, Xiao Tianyou's body was dead, and his soul appeared in the body of a young man, having devoured half of his soul. The young man wailed.

"Why are you hurting me?"

"How can I harm you? Am I not passing on everything I have to you? Good boy, don't resist."

……

Lin Ji quickly came to the third floor and slashed at the gate of the passage for independent cultivators with a sword. A formation appeared on the gate to resist, but Xiao Tianyou had no time to control the formation at this time, so Lin Ji quickly destroyed it. At this time, other cultivators also came to the third floor and were puzzled to see him attacking the passage for independent cultivators.

"Brother, why are you attacking the channel formation?"

Lin Ji ignored him and just walked forward and pushed open the door. A strong smell of blood filled the exit. The bloody scene inside shocked the people behind. There were more than a dozen people inside, all of whom died from being pierced through the body by sharp weapons. Judging from their expressions, these people did not react until they died.

"Everyone get out of here."

After saying that, Lin Ji left quickly first, and the others hurriedly followed. Xiao Tianyou on the seventh floor knew all this, but he couldn't change it, so he could only speed up the devouring of the boy's soul.

"We've been discovered. Looks like we can only escape through the secret passage. What a pity for the sword tower I built."

After leaving the tower, Yichun, Tiandong and three others came up to ask Lin Ji if he was injured, but Lin Ji ignored them and spoke quickly.

"Yichun, gather the nearby Xuantian Sect foundation-building monks to surround the sword tower, quickly."

"Yes."

Yichun used magic to send a message to the surrounding Xuantian Sect headquarters, saying that Daozi had ordered the Xuantian Sect's foundation-building monks to come quickly.

"Michiko, the message has been sent. According to the feedback, the fastest response time is 3 minutes."

"Well, Yichun, do you have the ability to seal off all the underground passages of the Sword Tower first?"

Hearing that it would take another 3 minutes, Lin Ji became a little anxious. Fearing that Xiao Tianyou had already left, he ordered Yi Chun to block the underground passage again.

"Simple."

After Yichun finished speaking, the ground in front began to shake. Huge wooden piles rose from the ground, completely destroying the land under the sword tower. As if this was not enough, Yichun continued to create more wooden piles until the sword tower was lifted up more than 20 meters and hung on the piles.

"Michiko, is this okay?"

"Well done, Yichun."

Five minutes later, six foundation-building cultivators arrived one after another, including one who was at the third level of the realm of mind. They were still somewhat dissatisfied with Lin Ji's summons, but they let it go when they thought that Lin Ji had defeated the Taoist of Wuji Palace. After seeing that the fighting power of the new cultivators already had an absolute advantage, Lin Ji ordered an attack.

"Attack, and make sure to find Xiao Tianyou. If there are other people inside, bring them here as well."

As soon as Lin Ji finished speaking, the seven foundation-building monks, including Yi Chun, gathered their attacks and then charged towards the sword tower together. The Qi-cultivating monks who came to participate in the test hid behind and trembled, not daring to speak.

Sensing the danger, the sword tower deployed a defensive formation, but its formation was instantly destroyed by the attack of seven foundation-building monks. The attacks landed on the sword tower body, directly breaking it into countless pieces. Then six foundation-building monks used their mental power to investigate before approaching to capture people, leaving one to protect Lin Ji.

Soon, two people were caught by spiritual power and brought in front of Lin Ji. The six foundation-building cultivators also returned to Lin Ji, and one of them said.

"Daozi, there is only one person alive. The old man is dead. It looks like it should be Xiao Tianyou. We also found a crystal, but it is broken and we can't tell what kind it is."

"Wake him up."

Lin Ji put away the broken crystal and gave instructions, and a foundation-building technique casually shot out a stream of light into the boy's body. He then woke up immediately, shook his head, then looked around and shouted in fear.

"What do you want to do? Senior Xiao has already accepted me as his disciple. He has already reached the third level of the realm of mind, so don't mess around!"

"The Senior Xiao you mentioned is right next to you. It seems like you two have a good relationship. Why don't you go down and accompany him?"

A foundation-building cultivator saw the boy's actions and joked. Lin Ji stared at him for a few seconds and said.

"Can you sense anything unusual about him?"

The seven foundation-building masters began to use their mental power to check the boy again and again, and shook their heads one after another to indicate that they had not found anything. Finally, the one who was at the third level of the foundation-building realm came close to Lin Ji and whispered.

"His soul and body are in perfect harmony. It doesn't look like he's been possessed by another body. But I always feel like there's something wrong with his soul, but I can't tell what it is."

"kindness."

Lin Ji approached the boy under the protection of a foundation-building cultivator. The boy looked at Xiao Tianyou's dead body beside him with a look of horror, while Xiao Tianyou, who had successfully taken over the body, was thinking in his mind at this time.

"Who is that guy? Why did so many foundation-building cultivators suddenly come? Most of them are at the first or second level of the realm. There is even one at the third level of the realm. I might not have been able to defeat him in my lifetime, let alone now... He can't find me, he can't find me."

Xiao Tianyou's prayers did not work. Lin Ji, with an expressionless face, pierced the boy's heart with a sword, and then pierced his head with another sword while he looked incredulous. Although the foundation-building monks around were surprised, they did not say anything. They just watched quietly to protect Lin Ji's safety.
