"In the legends of Wild Ghost Village, the soul is replaced by a healthy one to find liberation. I don't know if Ye Zhen can meet my requirements. If his substitute isn't suitable, then we'll have to divide Grandma Meng's spirit as a replacement."

He sighed deeply. After all, in this world that truly has myths and legends, and also truly possesses extraordinary power, who knows if establishing the Netherworld 12 Stations might be a large-scale, special salvation ritual?

Therefore, Lin Nian had to be extremely careful in choosing the ghosts among them, fearing that any stage might not be suitable and would cause her plan to fail.

"The Hall of Bewitching Souls is said to have a spring that can bewitch souls. Drinking it allows one to confess their evil deeds in the human world and await judgment by the King of Hell. So, would it be feasible to use the Ghost Lake, which has learned from the Ghost Newspaper to modify memories and the rules of action of vengeful ghosts, to contain them? Could we directly change the killing patterns of all vengeful ghosts, making them attack and kill each other, unable to devour or control them, until they completely shut down? However, doing so is too risky and requires careful consideration."

"The Ten Kings of Hell, though called a trial, are probably more like a suppression. Old Zhang and Old Luo's supernatural abilities are quite good in this respect. In fact, most of my own supernatural abilities can stay there, severing the past, burying the present, and cutting off the future. Tsk, that sounds like a description of a great supernatural being!"

"The 18 levels of hell, we can throw this place to Yang Jian in the future. After all, even in the timeline that has been modified many times, he eventually built the incomplete 18 levels of hell and threw the ghosts that my supernatural attacks had completely crashed into it, so that they would never be reincarnated. It doesn't sound bad."

"As for the Offering Pavilion? I think the Caesars Hotel and the Ghost Ship are pretty good. They have so many rooms, enough to hold some vengeful ghosts that have escaped from the 18th level of hell."

"As for the lotus platform? Tsk, wait a minute, the more I think about it, the more mysterious it seems. That vengeful ghost that can launch a fatal attack on anything that generates emotions is indeed in my hands now. Could it be that it's meant to deal with those vengeful ghosts that have developed intelligence? Holy crap, I think I've discovered the truth!"

"The wandering ghost messengers capture ghosts everywhere, send them to the local temple, record the patterns of their killings and the degree of terror, and then send them to the Yellow Springs Road. They are made to stay in the ghost realm of the Yellow Springs Road forever, never to leave again and return to the mortal world. They can only move forward to the Terrace of Longing for Home, enduring one death curse after another, and falling into silence."

"After eliminating a large number of vengeful ghosts and selecting the strongest ones to leave Wangxiangtai, there were consciousness attacks from Evil Dog Ridge, physical attacks from Golden Rooster Ridge, endless substitutions or endless invasions from Wild Ghost Village, and the Bewitching Hall's alteration of cognition and changes to the rules."

"This is the 12th station of the underworld that I built myself. How strong must the vengeful ghosts be to have survived so many supernatural attacks to get here? They must all be S-rank, right?"

"So, this really is a predictable and systematic process? I have no choice but to intervene if I can get this far. So, after my supernatural abilities completely disable these things, I'll hand them over to Yang Jian, the strongest in the Ghost Realm, to deal with."

"With these layers of weakening, even the most powerful ghost would have completely lost its intelligence and most of its puzzle pieces after being weakened by the 18 levels of hell, making it vulnerable to suppression by the Caesars Grand Hotel or the Ghost Ship!"

"Wait, what about Ghost Realm Fortress? Legend has it that Ghost Realm Fortress can send the souls of the dead back to the mortal world at certain times... Wait, who said this is the mortal world? At worst, I'll just create a Ghost Realm called the mortal world. And the truly vengeful ghosts that can walk out of my Ghost Realm again have probably already been reborn with intelligence!"

"So that vengeful spirit, which is specifically designed to attack beings with emotions, can come in handy! Let's continue with the suppression."

"And the Cliff of Resurrection, resurrection...resurrection? Resurrection! How is that possible? Could it be! This is what they call reincarnation!!!"

Reaching out, he summoned the white bone sword and began to draw directly on the golden ground. Two platforms and one node, linked together, a simple cycle was presented on the golden ground under the carving of the bone sword.

"This is the true separation of Yin and Yang! This is... using one's own body to suppress the prison! Is this... my path?"

Because of his precognition to some extent and his sky-high starting point compared to others, the boy, who could play chess however he wanted and kill any opponent he was playing against if he was unhappy, and who always appeared to be in complete control and calm, fell into a long period of contemplation and madness.

He found the most likely path, but it could also be the most wrong one!

Now, he has pushed himself to the brink, unsure of where hell lies or where heaven is.

"I need to be... stronger!"

————————

"The future is completely unclear!"

In a quiet courtyard at headquarters, Old Qin, who was resting on a recliner, opened his tired and cloudy eyes and vaguely realized that the chessboard he had been laying out over the years had been smashed at some point.

At the same time, many of Lin Nian's physical clones, created through supernatural means, also came into action.

They walk in reality, they walk in the supernatural, leaving their mark among all things in heaven and earth, and among all living beings, planting curses against themselves.

This time, his actions went completely undetected by anyone.

Number Two: Tomorrow I'm going to fight the Pharaoh. Who's coming with me?

Number Three: Currently enticing Ghost Lake, do not disturb.

Number Four: Are you trying to seduce Ghost Lake? He Liansheng's face turned green when he saw you seducing his granddaughter!

Number Five: Number Six, Number Seven, Number Eight, and I are currently sweeping through famous mountains and rivers. The great demons hiding there might be even more terrifying, so we don't have time to help you.

Number Nine: Currently working with Number Ten to fix the mess left by those old fogies. Do not disturb.

Number 11: Number 12 and I will help you! Otherwise, you'll be killed by the curse.

Number Two: Okay, let's meet at the pyramid! Also, when will that bastard Fang Shiming finally grow up? I'm cursing him to death!

Number Four: Do you think there's a possibility that the scissors you wanted are currently in Granny Meng's hands?

Number Two: ...I don't know!

Looking at the cheerful little group chat in his mind, Lin San, who was wandering around Taiping Ancient Town at the moment, had spent three days robbing a group of fierce ghosts and ghost tamers who dared not give him face.

Having witnessed the entire heritage of Taiping Ancient Town, he is now sitting in the ancestral hall of the ancient town, stroking a little girl who is not even ten years old in front of He Liansheng.

“Soul summoner! I’ll give you a choice. Over the years, I’ve found some vengeful ghosts, including the ghost that summons souls. You can trade it for the Ghost Lake; it’s not a bad deal for you, is it?”

“…”

"Don't keep that grim face. Otherwise, even if you've got connections with Old Luo, I can still beat you up!"

The scarlet eyes emanated a terrifying eeriness, causing He Liansheng to feel a stinging pain in his own eyes, which were inhabited by a ghostly spirit, and he couldn't muster any thought of resistance.
