Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!

Ghost techniques and accommodating fierce ghosts both have severe aftereffects. The former at most drastically changes one's personality, while the latter causes one to no longer be human. Although the "Lang Shou Ghost Lord Technique" can effectively alleviate the aftereffects brought by ghost techniques, it has little effect on normal living players who accommodate fierce ghosts.

So, just like this, after advancing his own arduous training to 135 years, Tan Shuchang had just finished when he received over three hundred requests to exorcise fierce ghosts.

In total, there were three hundred seventy-five people; two hundred thirteen were paying, while the remaining one hundred sixty-two chose to work as unpaid ghostly messengers in Lang Shou Ghost City for a while.

To this, Tan Shuchang was naturally indifferent. The difference between them was merely one involves integrating a blood-colored dry corpse shadow before he makes a move to extract it, and the other does not require any attention.

Then Tan Shuchang gained an unexpected benefit.

Because the currency in this bizarre game, though it is yin virtue, has no physical entity representing yin virtue like in the Land of Yin and Darkness.

The yin virtue here, just like the money in the games, are all virtual numbers.

Therefore, when it comes to using yin virtue, it usually involves using goods that can represent the value of yin virtue, such as parts of a fierce ghost.

"Your Majesty, I have three withered wood ghost fingers here, plus the palm area, although it's a bit short of what you had stipulated, with just two more withered wood ghost fingers, we can lure the withered wood ghost over, so...

I think the value of these four items can be somewhat overpriced..." This was a normal living player who was short on physical items and wanted to negotiate a little with Tan Shuchang.

And Tan Shuchang's unexpected gain also originated from here.

Because among the things he had left at Black Heart Mountain, there happened to be two withered wood ghost fingers.

Thus, he first granted the request of this player, giving him a blood-colored dry corpse shadow, then he left Lang Shou Ghost City and returned to Black Heart Mountain to retrieve those two withered wood ghost fingers.

Such items in the bizarre game, or elsewhere, can be revived. But in the Jiawu Realm, merely the residual qi left by Tan Shuchang's cultivation suppressed these two ghost fingers from releasing any malice.

Soon, Tan Shuchang, having returned to the bizarre game, summoned the withered wood ghost.
Your adventure continues at empire

It was a fierce ghost resembling withered wood, seemingly a tree person, but very frightening and terrifying. As soon as it was attracted over, it showed a terrible domain of malice.

Then it was conveniently stuffed by Tan Shuchang into his sleeve.

Just like this, having almost effortlessly acquired a fierce ghost, Tan Shuchang then had his dog-headed military advisor lead his subordinates to search among those items representing the value of yin virtue for components that could be used to summon more fierce ghosts.

And with Tan Shuchang's high-profile actions, the news that Lang Shou Ghost Master enjoyed consuming fierce ghosts also started circulating on the sole official website of the bizarre game.

Originally it was only a small-scale matter.

Now even the fierce ghosts knew about it.

Thus, on that day, scarlet text visible only to fierce ghosts kept appearing on that particular page.

All were denouncing the Lang Shou Ghost Master and expressing fear...

Because there were too few fierce ghosts in Lang Shou Ghost City, few enough that other fierce ghosts couldn't help but tremble at heart. It's known that whenever a ghost city appears, it usually hosts at least a thousand fierce ghosts.

Just like that, on that page accessible only to fierce ghosts, uproar ensued for a while until a bold scarlet text jumped out.

"Because the Lang Shou Ghost Master is cruel and unkind, acting in reverse and committing abuses, the Greedy Venerable King has already asked the Living Dead Yin God to intervene!"

"His Majesty is wise!"

A crowd of fierce ghosts cheered, and the title "His Majesty" here naturally wasn't referring to Tan Shuchang. Any crowned king could be called "His Majesty;" although Tan Shuchang was only a candidate, that didn't stop players from flattering.

...

Meanwhile, Tan Shuchang had already started another arduous training upgrade. When he had used up all the fierce ghosts in his hand, his cultivation power had advanced to two hundred and seven years.

And after this power of cultivation passed the threshold of two hundred years, Tan Shuchang experienced a feeling he had never had before.

When his cultivation power had first broken through a hundred years, Tan Shuchang had also felt that his own cultivation power seemed to have undergone a transformation, and his perception seemed to have come alive as well.

Even within the range of his perception, all the heavenly and earthly energies were no longer chaotic but began to reveal their unique rules.

Now, having advanced his cultivation power past two hundred years, Tan Shuchang felt these energies had become a part of him.

When this thought arose in his mind, centered around Black Heart Mountain, a wave of unimaginable energy surged instantly.

The spiritual energy between heaven and earth, the evil energy beneath Black Heart Mountain, the human energy wandering through towns and villages, the heart energy entwined around various temples, the thunder energy that carried fire and arrived from the heavens, the seasonal energies circulating through spring, summer, autumn, and winter...

these originally chaotic but non-interfering heavenly and earthly energies suddenly experienced an uprising.

Under the influence of this uprising, the Jianshan Sect, not far from Black Heart Mountain, was immediately affected.

Some cultivators, who were in the midst of their cultivation, were directly compelled to leave their residences to investigate the cause of this disturbance. And then, they all witnessed a scene beyond their imagination.

It was as if a funnel appeared between heaven and earth, with immense energy pouring into Black Heart Mountain.
