As the system prompt rang out, Ling Xiao glanced around him.
At the same time, he instinctively activated his Heaven-Earth Yin-Yang Eyes.
Buzz!!!!
In an instant, Ling Xiao's eyes transformed into a pair of Taiji-like symbols.
Wherever he looked, the Yin Qi pervading the Divine Tomb and even the ghosts hiding underground were fully revealed to him.
He could also clearly see the Corpse Qi and Yin Qi circulating within the nearby Zombies.
This sight left Ling Xiao deeply satisfied.
"To think that just the auxiliary function allows me to detect Yin Qi, ghostly energy, and even energy fluctuations without using any tools. With its other capabilities, Heaven-Earth Yin-Yang Eyes will definitely be an enormous asset!"
Ling Xiao spoke with seriousness.
After all, even someone at Uncle Nine's level had to use pomelo leaves soaked in fresh dew just to see ghosts—
And the dew had to be prepared a day in advance.
Even then, the effect only lasted for about an hour.
Moreover, if a ghost was powerful enough to hide itself, it couldn't be seen at all.
Sure, Uncle Nine had a pair of refined magical tools that let him see some weaker ghosts if they weren't hiding, but the effect was still inferior to pomelo leaves—aside from being usable at will.
From this, it was clear how powerful and important ordinary Yin-Yang Eyes were to a cultivator.
And Ling Xiao's version could detect all forms of energy.
"Heaven-Earth Yin-Yang Eyes far exceeds the ordinary."
"System, open my status panel!"
Ling Xiao gave the command.

Looking at his current stats, Ling Xiao nodded with satisfaction.
Based on the amount of EXP he had, he could level up several realms. How many exactly? That depended on the system.
"System, level up my realm! Upgrade as much as possible!"
Without hesitation, Ling Xiao gave the order.
Ding… Command accepted. Beginning level-up!
A system message echoed in his mind.
Boom rumble rumble!!!
Suddenly, torrents of overwhelming power surged through Ling Xiao's body like a flood.
He could clearly feel every part of his body, including his soul, rapidly strengthening.
Ding… Realm upgraded to Third Heaven of the Earth Master Realm. EXP consumed: 3000!
Ding… Realm upgraded to Fourth Heaven of the Earth Master Realm. EXP consumed: 3000!
Ding… Realm upgraded to Fifth Heaven of the Earth Master Realm. EXP consumed: 3000!
Ding… Realm upgraded to Sixth Heaven of the Earth Master Realm. EXP consumed: 10,000!
Four consecutive upgrade messages rang in Ling Xiao's head.
His eyes snapped open.
"I didn't expect that upgrading to Sixth Heaven of the Earth Master Realm would require 10,000 EXP… But the increase in my strength and speed is multiple times greater than at Fifth Heaven!"
Clenching his fists, Ling Xiao could feel his tremendous new power.
Advancing four full realms had at least quintupled his strength.
"Next are the skills. Since upgrading Heaven-Earth Yin-Yang Eyes to LV3 required 30,000 EXP, and upgrading the Divine Tomb again will also need 30,000…
I'd better upgrade all my other skills to LV3 first!"
After some thought, Ling Xiao spoke up.
"System, upgrade both my Healing Spell and Mount Mao Daoist Arts to LV3. Also, upgrade my Divine Tomb once!"
Ding… Command accepted! Beginning upgrades!
In an instant, a notification rang in Ling Xiao's mind.
Boom rumble rumble!!!
Massive amounts of knowledge surged into him like a flood.
He could immediately feel his Healing Spell becoming much more powerful.
At Level 1, Healing Spell could only treat ordinary injuries.
While it could still heal wounds for stronger cultivators, it was far too slow.
For instance, if someone like Uncle Nine had a cut on his hand, it would take Ling Xiao one to two hours to fully heal it.
But now, at Level 3, even if an Earth Master Realm cultivator at the Seventh or Eighth Heaven was injured, the wound could be completely healed within seconds.
As for Mount Mao Daoist Arts LV3, it now included all high-grade and peak-grade Xuan-class spells from Mount Mao.
This included powerful spells such as the Golden Light Talisman and the Five Thunder Incantation.
Uncle Nine had once said that a Heavenly Master Realm ancestor from Mount Mao had once used the Five Thunder Incantation to split an entire cliff on the back mountain.
That was how terrifying its power was.
Even recalling it filled Uncle Nine with awe—but sadly, he didn't have the power to use it himself. After all, it was a peak-grade Xuan-class spell.
As these two skills leveled up, the Divine Tomb began to change rapidly.
The density of Yin Qi surrounding Ling Xiao surged upward.
The skyrocketing Yin Qi was absorbed by all the Zombies and ghosts, boosting their strength rapidly.
Every single White Zombie upgraded instantly into a Green Zombie.
The lone Green Zombie, a Darksteel Zombie, advanced directly into the Hair Zombie level.
It wasn't just the Zombies—the ghosts all advanced as well.
Each one reached the level of a Shadow Evil Ghost.
Only the strongest, the original Red-clothed Malevolent Ghost, remained unmatched—there was still only one.
Soon, the transformation was complete.
All of Ling Xiao's Zombies and ghosts had evolved.
The Yin Qi in the Divine Tomb had become so thick it looked like dark green ink.
At this point, even ordinary corpses, without any system support, would turn into Black Zombies after lying in that environment for just a few days.
