Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!

Tan Shuchang's feelings were complex, a mixture of surprise, joy, and sorrow, in which surprise made up one part, sorrow nine, and the remaining ninety parts were joy.

He had not expected that this time it would be another multifaction instance capable of wiping out entire groups.

After all, the amount of information revealed by the blood-red text was enormous, with just the apparent factions dividing into six: the player's own faction, the players allied with the ghosts occupying Lang Shou Ghost City, the players with an invited A-grade player, the players with a different invited A-grade player, the original ghosts of Lang Shou Ghost City (the ghost scholar and his subordinates), and the current ghosts occupying Lang Shou Ghost City.

And as for hidden factions, Tan Shuchang guessed there were at least three more.

After all, it was not certain that the Yin God and ghosts currently occupying Lang Shou Ghost City were of one mind. As for why the invited A-grade players had encountered sudden changes, it could be due to a deal with some players, an agreement with the Yin God, or an alliance with one faction of ghosts.

Considering the sinister game's habit of simultaneously advancing both the obvious main storyline and the hidden main storyline, with the possibility of a true main storyline, this instance was definitely the most difficult one to date.

Because prior to this, the sinister game had "distributed" a windfall to the players.

Although it had only been a few days, that time frame was relevant to Tan Shuchang's perception. He was unsure how it compared to the flesh and blood players' time.

Moreover, with the wicked game's capability, accelerating the players' cultivation speed was not necessarily impossible.

Even the Jiawu Realm had the somewhat despised Lang Shou Ghost City as a treasure trove!

"Am I, the City Lord of this mighty Lang Shou Ghost City, invisible to you all?" With this thought, Tan Shuchang couldn't help but feel a sense of cool sorrow.

He didn't care much for the position of Master of the Ghost City, but being caring and being usurped were two different concepts!

Therefore, Tan Shuchang decided to eat something.

After all, when one is heartbroken, eating more can always bring some happiness.

So, Tan Shuchang stepped out and instantly appeared hundreds of yards away. There was a door here, a very ordinary-looking wooden door. However, a ghost difficult to detect was lying on this door.

The ghost's rule of killing was death upon pushing the door!

It was an almost insoluble situation, as the only way to open the door was to push it hard. This door and the surrounding area were enveloped by the ghost's malicious domain.

But that was a choice for other players.

Tan Shuchang's Sleve Art was strong, so he directly dismantled the door.

When Tan Shuchang disassembled the door, the ghost on the door could no longer maintain its composure and materialized.

It was an old man with white hair and a cane that seemed rather useless, staring at Tan Shuchang with a pair of lifeless eyes.

"Can you count as two?"

Seeing this scene, Tan Shuchang naturally felt delighted.

He hadn't expected the ghost to count as one with the wooden door, and its newly materialized form to count as another. This ability, so to speak, was something not even the incarnation abilities of General Huai could match.

Thus, feeling somewhat thoughtful, Tan Shuchang asked, "Old man, isn't it painful to be held back in your rule of killing, preventing you from ascending successfully?"

No sooner had these words fallen, than the malicious intent emitted by the white-haired old man intensified.

The tangible malice turned into twisted human faces, enveloping Tan Shuchang. These were the souls of living people who had died at the hands of this ghost, unable to escape after death, bound by the ghost, and even became part of its malice.

After using this move, the old man intended to mock Tan Shuchang. It had a reputation among the ghosts and had previously succeeded in gaining the support of a Yin God, making it very likely to take over the role of Master of Lang Shou Ghost City.

Originally, it just wanted to eat a few more flesh and blood players before everything started, to strengthen its maliciousness and gain an advantage in the upcoming confrontation with the mysterious Master of Lang Shou Ghost City!

Crafting the "Lang Shou Ghost Lord Technique," a supernatural Cultivation Technique of extraordinary power with a mortal body, it could be said that no ghost in the current sinister game world dared to underestimate this individual.

If it weren't for the King of Destruction and Seeing Black King keeping their mouths tightly shut about the Master of Lang Shou Ghost City, refusing to reveal their identity, the true form of this mysterious Master of Lang Shou Ghost City would have already been found by other Yin Gods!

But changing perspectives, one could understand the decisions of the King of Destruction and Seeing Black King. After all, such a formidable flesh and blood player should, of course, be treasured.

And just then, before the old man could speak, his malice was suppressed.

"If you were a little more powerful, you could take on three by yourself!" Tan Shuchang lifted his hand and grasped in the air, and the old man found himself uncontrollably shrinking, then compressed into a projectile, casually held in the palm of Tan Shuchang's hand.

At that moment, the ghost realized the identity of the person before it, but it was already too late.

Because it was thrown by Tan Shuchang into his sleeve.

With Sleeve Art at play, the ghost couldn't make a move, much less make a sound.

Unaware that this old man was the ghost vying for his position as Master of Lang Shou Ghost City, Tan Shuchang continued his search for other ghosts.
