Possessed by a ghost?
Cao Kun let out a cold laugh.
As a heretical cultivator, he was least afraid of being possessed by ghosts.
Being possessed by a ghost is no different from choosing suicide.
Unless, of course, that ghost's cultivation level far exceeds Cao Kun's, making it impossible for him to absorb it.
But the old woman's ghost is clearly not included in this category.
"ah!"
A piercing scream echoed in the room.
The old woman's ghostly head emerged from Cao Kun's body, desperately trying to escape.
"It's too late to run now."
A tremendous suction force was generated within Cao Kun's body.
This suction force not only drew in the old woman's yin spirit, but also transformed her soul into the purest yin energy, which Cao Kun then devoured and absorbed.
"Let me go, let me go..."
The old woman's ghost began to beg for mercy, but it did not soften Cao Kun's heart in the slightest.
Her voice grew weaker and weaker until it disappeared completely.
"Ding! Killed an F-rank ghost, gained 5000 experience points."
"Ding! Killed an F-rank ghost, obtained the 'Ghost Raising Technique'."
"Note! The Art of Raising Ghosts can cultivate a spirit that will be forever loyal to you. This art is ruthless and vicious, so please use it with caution."
The system notification sounded in my mind in real time.
"Master Cao, how...how is it?"
Tom Cruz asked expectantly, "Is she dead?"
Cao Kun nodded: "That's right, I've dealt with the old woman's spirit. She won't bother you again."
Upon hearing this, Tom Cruz and Nicole Kidman both breathed a sigh of relief.
Cao Kun reached out and summoned the two Yin Talismans from before, which flew over and landed in his hand.
Cao Kun checked it and found that the Yin Talisman's spiritual power was slightly damaged, but it was still usable.
He quickly put it away with a flick of his wrist.
This Yin Talisman is incredibly expensive; it cannot be wasted easily.
Cao Kun looked at Tom Cruz and his wife and saw that they both had very clear fingerprints on their necks.
This was caused by their earlier fight.
Especially Nicole Kidman, who, in addition to being choked by Tom Cruz, was also choked by that old woman before.
Now, the fingerprint is bluish-black and extremely conspicuous.
Give me your hand.
Cao Kun extended his hands, and the two men each gave him one of their hands.
Cao Kun grasped the two men's hands, activated his internal energy technique, and instantly absorbed the yin energy from their bodies.
The two quickly felt the chill disappear and their bodies warm up again, and the various discomforts also subsided rapidly.
The two looked delighted and were greatly surprised.
Cao Kun released their hands and said, "You no longer have any evil energy in your bodies, but you suffered losses before, which cannot be replenished in a short time. It will take time."
Previously, Tom Cruz had his yang essence drained, which extinguished some of his yang energy and damaged his body.
Nicole Kidman is the old woman's target, and over time, her body has also suffered severe damage.
Now, they are simply no longer being hurt, but the damage they have already suffered cannot be made up for all at once.
Tom Cruz nodded understandingly: "Master Cao, is there any way to speed up the recovery process?"
Cao Kun thought that the "Yin Yang Creation Technique" should be acceptable.
After all, this is a secret technique of creation that can regulate the balance of Yin and Yang, and Tom Cruz and his companions' bodies are also included in it.
However, just like adjusting the bodies of Angelina and the others, this requires a long period of conditioning.
If Cao Kun wanted to achieve success in one fell swoop, he would have to pay a huge price.
Cao Kun naturally didn't want this to happen, so he said, "I'll write you a prescription. Go to Chinatown and find a traditional Chinese medicine shop, have them brew it for you, and then take it as prescribed."
In addition, get plenty of sunshine.
Inside the house, buy some more sun-loving green plants.
It should take about a month to make up for it.
Tom Cruz's face immediately broke into a smile: "Thank you, Master Cao."
Cao Kun first went to the previous room, took out the Yin Talisman, and released more than a dozen servants.
Then, using the paper and pen that Tom Cruz brought, he began to write the prescription.
He handed the prescription to Tom Cruz, who immediately took it and said, "Master, that Yin Talisman you had before seemed very powerful. Can I buy some to keep at home for protection?"
After he finished speaking, Tom Cruz noticed that Cao Kun was looking at him with a strange expression.
"What's wrong?" he asked, puzzled.
Cao Kun: "The Yin Talisman is not something a normal person can use. If you keep it at home, you will die mysteriously before long."
Tom Cruz was startled and quickly said, "Never mind then. Master Cao, please wait a moment, I'll go write the check."
Cao Kun felt quite regretful as he watched Tom Cruz leave.
If it is a normal Taoist talisman, ordinary people can also use it.
Taoists have various talismans that can be pasted in the home or carried on the body to ward off evil and disaster.
If you sold this kind of talisman to a wealthy person like Tom Cruz who doesn't care about money, it would easily fetch $100,000 per piece.
Unfortunately, this is a Yin talisman; any ordinary person who uses it will die.
This is equivalent to cutting off a huge source of income.
"If I had chosen the righteous cultivation system back then, I think I could have made money much faster."
"However, the orthodox cultivation system has too many limitations. In the context of the Dharma-ending Age, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is so thin that it is too difficult to level up."
"Although the evil cultivation system can't make money from talismans, it has its own other ways to make money."
"Especially since this is in the US, the evil cultivation system is far more suitable for me than the immortal cultivation system."
Thinking of this, Cao Kun's regrets quickly dissipated.
Shortly after, Tom Cruz's Bentley left his mansion and drove out of Beverly Hills.
Inside the car sat Tom Cruz's driver and Cao Kun.
Tom Cruz was quite considerate; having brought the person over, he naturally had to send them back as well.
They didn't say they'd just wash their hands of it after the matter was resolved.
When the car arrived near Cao Kun's apartment, the driver appeared extremely nervous, constantly observing the surrounding situation.
However, everything was calm and peaceful, and none of the things he had imagined happened.
Little did he know that the insects in the vicinity had long since been used as materials for Yin Talismans.
Back home, Cao Kun took out a check for $500,000.
Looking at the check, Cao Kun smiled. In just half a day, he had earned $500,000.
He earns money faster than most celebrities.
However, the biggest gain this time was not just the $500,000.
He entered the system and saw that his experience points had increased to 8200.
In the spell list, there is now a new spell called "Raising Ghosts".
Cao Kun ignored "The Art of Raising Ghosts" and instead looked at the two lit-up upgrade buttons.
With 8200 experience points, my cultivation level and the "Yin Yang Creation Technique" can be upgraded again.
"I was right. The Yin-Yang Creation Technique now requires 5,000 experience points to upgrade."
"If my cultivation level were to increase, it would be 6400 points."
After thinking it over, Cao Kun decided to upgrade his cultivation level first.
"upgrade!"
"Huh?"
This time, the pain of upgrading my cultivation level was much less than last time.
It also takes longer.
Within minutes, Cao Kun noticed the changes in his body.
And within the system...
Cultivation level: Seventh grade of Gathering Evil
Experience points: 6200
"Um?"
Cao Kun's eyes widened: "What's going on? You only used 2000 experience points to level up."
Shouldn't it be 6400 points?
Cao Kun was completely baffled and couldn't figure it out.
