Catching Ghosts as Head of Yin Department

Chapter 383: Competing for the Human Immortal Legacy


If nothing unexpected happens, Xin Ziruo will definitely win.

Her Five Viscera Concealing Immortal Technique naturally restrains Mo Lin's Five Viscera Concealing Ghost Skill.

This is why Xin Ziruo was not afraid at all when she saw Mo Lin.

Just as Xin Ziruo and Mo Lin were about to start fighting, an unexpected event occurred.

An invisible force descended from the sky.

It directly trapped Mo Lin and Xin Ziruo.

This force made Xin Ziruo and Mo Lin lose their power.

This is the power of an Immortal.

"This is my temple, you are not allowed to fight here."

A voice filled with oppressive authority rang out.

This statement made Mo Lin and Xin Ziruo stop simultaneously.

It made sense.

This is an Immortal's temple, how could it allow Mo Lin and Xin Ziruo to fight?

What would happen to the temple's incense offerings?

Mo Lin's eyes were bloodshot, with even red veins appearing.

If it weren't for the Immortal stopping him, he would have already started fighting Xin Ziruo.

"Why are you plotting to kill me?" Mo Lin questioned Xin Ziruo.

Mo Lin and Xin Ziruo had no old grudge or conflict.

If there were any enmity between them, it was merely that Mo Lin had asked Xin Ziruo for a wisp of Immortal Qi.

But… Xin Ziruo wanted to kill Mo Lin just for a wisp of Immortal Qi?

Wasn't this too childish?

So, Mo Lin was very curious why Xin Ziruo wished him harm.

Seeing Xin Ziruo remain silent, Mo Lin spoke again.

"I saved your life on Yunhua Dao, and you repay me not with gratitude but malice."

Back then, on Yunhua Dao, Xin Ziruo and others faced a disaster, and it was Mo Lin who intervened and saved Xin Ziruo.

If Mo Lin hadn't stepped in, Xin Ziruo would have died on Yunhua Dao.

Xin Ziruo, expressionless, coldly said, "You and I are archenemies."

"Archenemies?"

Upon hearing this term, Mo Lin found it laughable.

What does archenemy mean?

This term was too perfunctory.

"I just want to know why you want to harm me?"

"What is your motive?" Mo Lin asked Xin Ziruo again.

Xin Ziruo just coldly stared at Mo Lin without saying a word.

Helpless, Mo Lin stopped asking further.

At this moment, an elderly figure slowly appeared.

This elderly person stooped over, holding a gray-white cane with a carved snakehead on it.

This was an old grandmother, with a head full of white hair.

Looking closely, she was not human.

Although the upper half of her body was human-like, the lower half resembled a snake.

This elder exhaled a dense mist.

Snake Immortal!

Seeing this grandmother, the term instantly popped into Mo Lin's mind.

"Thousands of years ago, I saved a scholar here. That scholar became a top graduate and built this temple for me, allowing me to become a Snake Immortal."

The Snake Immortal took a deep breath and slowly said, "I have lived so long that my lifespan is nearing its end.

I am about to die."

"After I die, I cannot take my powers with me; I can only leave them to you."

As she spoke, she glanced at Xin Ziruo, then at Mo Lin.

Then the Snake Immortal pointed at Xin Ziruo and slowly said, "You are more suited for this Immortal legacy."

Upon hearing this, Xin Ziruo's face lit up with a smile.

She practiced the Five Viscera Concealing Immortal Technique, already possessing Immortal Qi, making her even more compatible with the Immortal legacy.

The Snake Immortal looked at Mo Lin and shook her head, "You practice Ghost Technique, which is not very compatible with the Immortal legacy."

Snake Immortal was merely stating the facts and speaking the truth.

Mo Lin's Five Viscera Concealing Ghost Skill was a Ghost Technique, not an Immortal Technique.

Compared to Xin Ziruo, Mo Lin indeed had no advantage.

In fact, he was at a disadvantage.

"Snake Immortal, may I have this Immortal legacy?" Xin Ziruo asked the Snake Immortal eagerly.

If she could obtain this Immortal legacy, her strength would surely advance further, allowing her to easily deal with Mo Lin.

The Snake Immortal glanced at Mo Lin, then at Xin Ziruo, and said, "I am willing to give the Immortal legacy to you."

"Then please hurry and give me the Immortal legacy," Xin Ziruo responded impatiently.

"But..." the Snake Immortal suddenly changed her tone and continued speaking.

"I want to give him a chance."

The Snake Immortal pointed at Mo Lin, indicating a chance for him.

Upon hearing this, Xin Ziruo was immediately displeased.

"He is not suited for the Immortal legacy, why give him a chance?" Xin Ziruo asked the Snake Immortal, unwillingly questioning.

If not suited for the Immortal legacy, it should just be discarded.

Why even give Mo Lin a chance?

Isn't this contradictory?

Not suitable, yet give an opportunity... isn't that a contradiction?

Mo Lin himself was also confused.

Actually, just now when the Snake Immortal said Mo Lin was unsuited for the Immortal legacy, Mo Lin had already planned to give up.

"He saved my child, so I want to give him a chance." Snake Immortal explained.

Upon hearing this, Xin Ziruo's expression turned as sour as if she'd eaten dog feces.

What kind of luck is this?

Saved the Snake Immortal's child?

Mo Lin himself was taken aback.

He didn't know any Snake Immortal, when did he save her child?

Mo Lin couldn't recall.

Just as Mo Lin was feeling puzzled, a large white python slowly crawled out from afar.

This python crawled towards Mo Lin and rubbed against his foot.

Its demeanor was like that of a pet.

Upon seeing this white python, Mo Lin remembered.

Earlier, when he returned to the Shu Region, he encountered a white python.

A group of people wanted to slaughter that python, so Mo Lin saved the white python.

Who would have thought that his act of kindness would lead to such an unexpected reward.

One can only say that the world is full of coincidences.

If Mo Lin had not saved this large white python.

Today, Mo Lin would not have obtained the Immortal legacy.

On the side, Xin Ziruo stood with her arms crossed, looking impatient.

"Enough, don't tell stories," Xin Ziruo directly interrupted the Human Immortal's words.

She refused to hear anything about Mo Lin.

The Snake Immortal was just explaining the reason for giving Mo Lin a chance, without any other meaning.

"Between us, who will you give the Immortal legacy to?" Xin Ziruo directly asked the Snake Immortal, pointing at herself and Mo Lin.

"You will have to compete for it yourselves."

As for to whom the Immortal legacy will be given, this matter is fair.

It's entirely up to Mo Lin and the others to fight for it.

"How do we compete?" Xin Ziruo asked the Snake Immortal.

"There are two Snake Immortal Flowers here."

The Snake Immortal pointed to two stalks on the wall in the distance and spoke slowly.

Though called Snake Immortal Flowers, they actually resemble grass, and the stalks are very thick.

Each was about ten centimeters tall, only had green leaves, and did not even have flowers.

"Each of you takes one Snake Immortal Flower; whoever can make the Snake Immortal Flower bloom will receive the Immortal legacy," Snake Immortal announced slowly.

"Alright," Xin Ziruo agreed without hesitation.

In her view, this was a simple task.
