Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!

Chapter 169 123, Eight parts humanity, two parts ghostly nature

Tan Shuchang had been cultivating for four years, December 12.

It had just passed midnight, but he couldn't help but pick up his pen to write a few lines. In the past, he had seen cultivators who, upon reaching a certain point, would immediately settle into pleasure and vie for power. Besides having a bit of cultivation, they hardly qualified as true cultivators.

Even more precisely, what they possessed should not be called cultivation, but power.

Therefore, he had often scorned them openly.

But now, he was beginning to understand. Cultivation was indeed difficult, each advancement required unimaginable effort.

His cultivation had stalled at over seven hundred years, and it seemed he would not be able to advance any further in the short term.

Pity! Such pity!

He wondered if he could ever achieve ten thousand years of cultivation?

...

After finishing his diary, Tan Shuchang didn't put away the Magic Artifact for recording, but left it aside to ponder deeply.

Because he had an eerie guess under the light.

His diary had suddenly been exposed, perhaps because of this Magic Artifact for recording. This spirit-communicating Magic Artifact might have been tampered with from the very beginning of its creation.

"Indeed, such rare spirit-communicating Magic Artifacts, how could someone from Qitian Pavilion afford one just by refining it themselves? If someone else helped and added more precious materials, then it would make sense..."

Realizing this, he only needed to trace who had refined it and where it was refined to easily figure out who had tampered with this spirit-communicating Magic Artifact.

And this person who had tampered with it, even if not the main culprit, was largely related to the "strange disappearance and spreading" of his first, second diary volumes, and that particular diary entry.

As for how to let the other party see these diaries, Tan Shuchang felt that he should be able to do it once he reached a thousand years of cultivation. After all, although the other party had a master Artifact Refiner create it, no matter how close to the Dao the skill was, it was still just a skill. What his thousand years of cultivation could enhance was not merely strength.

Then, Tan Shuchang walked out of the Snake Desire Hall.

This was a very simple hall, because it had no doors, nor extra space; entering it, you could see the entire Snake Desire Hall.

This was the core of the Greed Rule, which indeed presented a starkly different meaning.

And as Tan Shuchang exited the Snake Desire Hall, he saw a wandering ghost near this great hall. It was the ghost formed after Dai Huanzhen's death.

At this time, this ghost wandered restlessly near the Snake Desire Hall, displaying curiosity about everything, occasionally touching or biting.

Seeing this, Tan Shuchang couldn't help but nod faintly.

To become a ghost certainly had its effects. Its lively behavior now undoubtedly indicated that the ghost was progressing towards becoming a fierce ghost, which was on the positive side.

Because its memories from when it was alive were quietly recovering.

When it became a top-tier fierce ghost, it probably would recall everything from its mortal life.

However, memory recovery aside, by that time, Dai Huanzhen would undoubtedly be completely different from his former self in life.

Eight parts human nature, two parts ghost nature.

"Unfortunately, although this method of using a bizarre game to nurture fierce ghosts is indeed feasible, the power required comes from me as the 'king'..."

Tan Shuchang shook his head slightly; he had once entertained the idea of breeding his own ghosts, but now he naturally had to abandon that plan.

He was not like the King of Earth Destruction and the King of Seeing in the Dark, whose powers were so abundant.

Then, Tan Shuchang transformed into an immortal blood form, and with the emergence of the immortal blood form, came the countless "Blood Gods." These "Blood Gods" didn't have the ability to Shuttle Through Void, but they could gather or disperse at will, switch between Reality and Conversion, and change form.
